At four o 'clock in the night, Li Huailin once again appeared at the teleportation point in Muryek City. Fortunately, Muryek City was a mainstream leveling spot for players above level 30. Although there weren't many people in the middle of the night, there were still a few players around. With their cover, Li Huailin teleported out of the city, so he didn't have to worry about the guards reporting to the city lord.
"Let's just walk." Walking out of the door, Li Huailin pondered for a moment. It was better not to summon someone as conspicuous as Little Mi. Ever since he ran around here the last time, he reckoned that every household in Muryek City would know who he was. It was better to walk.
Just as he was about to leave, a hand suddenly grabbed Li Huailin and pulled Li Huailin into a small alley. Li Huailin didn't react for a moment. He looked up to see who was pulling him out of nowhere, and was almost scared out of his wits, "Sa … Ceci?!"
"Shh!" Ceci immediately looked around and whispered, "Be gentle!"
"What's wrong? Why are you sneaking around in your own city? "Li Huailin suddenly asked in a serious tone," Is there a rebellion? "
"No," Ceci said.
"Then what are you doing? You pulled me into an alley in the middle of the night. I thought there was a rebellion and they chased you out, "Li Huailin asked curiously.
"I escaped, Adri is looking for me everywhere," Ceci said.
"Why did you escape?" Li Huailin asked, "Aren't you afraid of being kidnapped in the middle of the night?"
"It's all because of you!" Ceci said.
"Me?" Li Huailin asked.
"It's all your fault for not responding last time. In the end, I directly reported to His Royal Highness about our marriage," Ceci said.
"F * ck, I haven't even agreed yet. What are you trying to do by asking the King to issue an edict?" Li Huailin's forehead was immediately covered in sweat. He hoped that the edict would not be issued, so he hurriedly asked, "What's the result?"
"His Royal Highness has arranged a marriage for me …" said Ceci.
"F * ck!" Li Huailin almost cursed out loud, but the next sentence made him feel relieved.
"But it's not you," Ceci said.
"Nani? There's such a good thing … there's such a thing? " Li Huailin said. In his heart, he thought that Anthony was indeed his brother. He was so awesome. I didn't help you for nothing.
"His Royal Highness has betrothed me to Duke Lautner!" Ceci said excitedly.
"Duke Lautner? You are also a Duke. You really have the fate of a Duchess, "Li Huailin said with a smile." Who is this guy? "
"You don't know? Including you, there are only three Dukes in the Empire. You don't know Duke Lautner? "Ceci asked curiously.
"Why would I know him?" Li Huailin spread his hands. "It's not like I'm marrying him."
"You, why do you look like you're taking pleasure in my misfortune? I've already told His Royal Highness that I'm not marrying anyone but you, "Ceci said.
"What? Hey, hey, don't you want me to die? Don't you think the age difference between us is a bit big? "Li Huailin said.
"We're ten years apart at most. Duke Lautner is almost fifty this year. If my dad was still alive, he would be younger than him. You're still talking about age difference with me?" Ceci said.
"F * ck, Duke Lautner is almost fifty this year, and he's still marrying you? You're really not marrying his son? "Li Huailin was shocked.
"Really, I've asked. He has seven sons, and each of them is older than me, "Ceci said.
"F * ck, this Anthony is really crazy. His seven sons actually have to call you mom. Just thinking about it is fun," Li Huailin said.
"I have no idea what His Royal Highness is thinking. I said I'm marrying you, but the next day, I received an edict saying that I'm marrying Duke Lautner. I've never met him before, and I've already told His Royal Highness that we've done everything," Ceci said.
"Nonsense, what the f * ck have I done?" Li Huailin said. "You'll completely misunderstand me if you say that, okay?"
"You can't just watch me marry someone who can be my grandfather, right?" Ceci said. "I heard that you have a good relationship with His Royal Highness. Hurry up and ask him to marry me to you."
"Idiot … wait …" Li Huailin wanted to say that only an idiot would say that, but after thinking about it, he suddenly felt that it was better to trick her into going back first. If he were to bargain with this guy now, what if she kept pestering him? Wouldn't that be annoying? It would be better to let her go back and wait. Then, she would marry Duke Lautner, and after that, she would have nothing to do with him.
"You're right …" Li Huailin nodded. "This really can't be done. I can't stand it. How about this, I'll go and talk to Anthony immediately."
"Really?" Ceci said in surprise.
"Mm … don't worry, but before that, you have to go back first," Li Huailin said.
"Eh? Why? " Ceci asked. "I don't know what Adri was thinking. He actually agreed to His Royal Highness' proposal and even started preparing for my wedding. If I go back now, I'll be forced to learn some etiquette course. I'm not going back. I'll go with you to His Royal Highness and explain it to him …"
"That won't do …" Li Huailin quickly said. "There are some things that can only be explained by me and Anthony, especially such a big thing," Li Huailin said.
"Then I'll go with you. I'll wait for you outside," Ceci said.
"That won't do … Think about it, why didn't His Royal Highness agree to your request?" Li Huailin asked.
"This …" Ceci was a little confused, but he was too anxious to think about it. Now that he thought about it, it was a little strange. Speaking of which, why didn't he agree to my marriage with Li Huailin, but instead, he married me to Duke Lautner? It was indeed strange. "Yeah, why is that? Do you know why?"
"It's obvious that His Royal Highness has a lot of opinions about you or your family," Li Huailin said.
"Opinions about me? Why? I didn't do anything wrong to him, "Ceci asked curiously.
"The new empire has just been established. Doesn't His Royal Highness need to consider the loyalty of the original vassals? This time, he asked you to marry Duke Lautner to see if you would listen to his orders. Do you think this is the problem? "Li Huailin said.
"This … But even if I can't marry Duke Lautner, my family will still support the new Emperor," Ceci said seriously and nodded. He really believed Abel's words.
"So, this matter must be decided by me. You can't be involved." Li Huailin said. "Think about it, if I say it, then I'll be the one going against the king's will, not you."
"Isn't this not good for you?" Ceci said immediately.
"You just said that Anthony and I are very close. Anthony won't mind if it happens once or twice," Li Huailin said. "So, do you understand? You can't be involved in this matter. Go back now and pretend that you are listening to the king's order to prepare to marry Duke Lautner. Then, wait for me to stop this matter. "
"That makes sense …" Ceci nodded. "But what if His Royal Highness doesn't agree to your request?"
"Then I'll just rob him," Li Huailin said. "That's easy."
"Rob … by force? That works? "Ceci said in surprise." Then … something big is going to happen? "
"At that time, I can't care so much, don't you think so?" Li Huailin said as he patted his chest.
"If that's the case, then both of us are going against the king's order. Isn't that treason?" Ceci said immediately.
"It's just treason. It's a small matter." Li Huailin immediately patted his chest and said, "I can't just watch you marry that old man who's over 50 years old. What do you think? If it's treason, then so be it. When the time comes, the two of us can just run away. Well, it should be called elopement. An earl and a duke eloping together. That sounds awesome."
"Well, as expected of the man that I, Ceci, fancy. You really have guts," Ceci said immediately.
Although it sounded like there was nothing wrong with what she said, Li Huailin felt that something was wrong when it came from the twelve-year-old girl's mouth. Li Huailin wiped his sweat and said, "Anyway, you can go back without worry. I'll contact Anthony immediately. Don't worry, there should be a result soon. Just wait."
"Okay, I believe you." Ceci nodded. After that, she held Li Huailin's hand with her little hand and said affectionately, "I'll wait for you to marry me, for the rest of my life!"
"Hehe …" The corner of Li Huailin's mouth twitched. "Don't worry, go back quickly."
"Okay." Ceci nodded, then looked at Li Huailin reluctantly. After that, she ran to the teleportation point next to them. There were many guards there, and Adri was looking for Ceci. The guards here would immediately inform Adri if they saw Ceci.
"She actually tricked me into going back." Seeing that Ceci was taken away by him, Li Huailin immediately said, "I'm so f * cking smart. (Flag raised) "
Now that he knew that Ceci was in big trouble, Li Huailin felt that evil had its retribution. Finally, Ceci had no time to care about him. As for her marrying Duke Lautner, it was great. All his problems were solved in an instant. Anthony and Duke Lautner, whom he had never met before, had done a great job.
Without the threat of this annoying guy, Li Huailin swaggered on Millet and ran happily towards Verden's Windmill Farm.
