Ji Ling returned home in a daze. Oh, why did he agree to hold an engagement ceremony with Ka Luosi?
Oh right, that old man said that if he didn't hold an engagement ceremony, Jing Sui would definitely realize that they were just fooling around and continue to pester him …
When he got home and turned on the internet, there were still rumors about him, Jing Sui, and Ka Luosi. The netizens were arguing with each other every day, each taking their own side. Ji Ling really wanted to say, "Please let me go, I don't want any of them, really!"
But he couldn't say anything.
Fortunately, he didn't have to maintain a smile.
Seeing that the plot was running wild, Ji Ling didn't know if the plot could still be salvaged. It was better to salvage himself first. Since things had already come to this point, why should he still care about formalities? Wasn't it just an engagement ceremony? It wasn't even a real marriage … It was a good opportunity for Jing Sui to see it with her own eyes and give up earlier. Moreover, Ning Yu seemed to have some feelings for Jing Sui. Maybe after Jing Sui was disheartened by him, she would remember Ning Yu's kindness and rekindle their old love?
Thinking of this, Ji Ling forced himself to cheer up.
There was still a glimmer of hope for his mission! My good brother, Ning Yu, now it's all up to you!
The system saw its host go from being in a trance to being able to cheer up, and suddenly felt that it wasn't easy for the host. It comforted him, [I think Ning Yu likes Jing Sui. Come on, you can do it!]
For the first time, Ji Ling felt that the system was so good at talking. He couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart, [Thank you for your kind words. Thank you for your kind words.]
… …
The engagement ceremony was set to be held in Duke Ka Luosi's mansion three days later. At that time, all the celebrities and nobles of the upper class of the empire would attend. Ka Luosi even invited His Majesty the Emperor!
This was a naked demonstration. On the surface, it seemed peaceful, but in fact, there was a turbulent undercurrent. Everyone was watching the situation nervously.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the morning of the engagement ceremony, Mrs. Marina woke up early to help her son dress up. Although she was reluctant about this marriage, Ka Luosi was very sincere, and her son was very loyal to him. Now that things had come to this, she could only follow her son's wishes and take things one step at a time.
Today, Ji Ling was wearing a navy blue velvet suit with gold trim on the cuffs, which made him look exquisite and gorgeous. With his fair and handsome face and sky-blue eyes, he was so eye-catching that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
Mrs. Marina held her son's hand. With tears in her eyes, she said reluctantly, "Baby, Mom can't bear to part with you."
Ji Ling: "… Mom, it's just an engagement ceremony." He had no intention of getting married!
But Mrs. Marina was still worried. Carlos was so attentive to his son, as if he really loved him. Now, his son had already been deceived into falling head over heels for him. Could it be that the engagement was still going to be a success?
But on second thought, if he was sincere, why couldn't he always be good to his son? Mrs. Marina thought about it carefully. Maybe it was because that person was too deep and scary, and he always felt that he was not suitable for her son. It was inevitable that she was worried that her son would be hurt …
Ji Ling didn't want to face his mother's worried eyes, so he bit the bullet and went out. He just wanted to finish the performance early and go home to rest.
When he went out, Ka Luosi was already waiting outside.
The elegant and mature man was dressed in a black suit today. His brown hair was meticulously combed to the back of his head. His handsome and deep face carried a faint smile. He wore white gloves and held a silver-black cane as he stood there. He held out his hand to Ji Ling like a gentleman, an elegant smile on his lips. "I'm here to pick you up."
Ji Ling felt that the engagement was too shameful, so he avoided Ka Luosi's eyes and obediently let Ka Luosi lead him to the car. He said awkwardly, "Thank you, Uncle Ka Luosi."
Ka Luosi sat next to Ji Ling and looked at the boy's red ears because of shyness. Thinking that he would be her legitimate lover in the future, her eyes darkened a little. She gently stroked Ji Ling's hair and let out a low laugh. "Don't call me uncle in the future."
Ji Ling was stunned and raised his eyes in confusion.
Ka Luosi lowered his head slightly and stared gently and seriously into Ji Ling's eyes. He smiled and said, "You will be my lover in the future. If you still call me uncle, won't you be a joke and arouse suspicion?"
Ji Ling thought about it and felt that it made sense. Besides, it was just calling his name. It was not a big deal.
You're the one who told me to say that, not me. I didn't say it myself, so I didn't offend you. Heh heh.
Ji Ling readily changed his address. "Ka Luosi."
Carlos looked at the young man's obedient appearance, his beautiful and clear eyes, his pale and soft lips slightly parted, and his clear and melodious voice calling out his name … His voice floated into his ears and landed on his heart. Suddenly, he felt his throat tighten.
At this moment, it was as if some kind of impulse was almost uncontrollable. She didn't want to continue pretending to be polite. Instead, she wanted to press him under her and listen to him cry her name again and again …
Ka Luosi took a deep breath and hid the strange look in his eyes.
He had never thought that one day, he would have such an impulse just because someone had simply called his name.
Ka Luosi closed his eyes. Although you only agreed to marry me because you were angry and I used despicable means to temporarily keep you by my side … Even so, you can forget about escaping from my palm.
