The current Rui Dian King, Gustav XVII, and Queen Margaret were surprised to hear their daughter take the initiative to entertain her friends.
Gustav was over sixty years old. His hair was already white and he was a little bald. However, he was dressed in a royal robe and had an extraordinary temperament.
He immediately asked with a smile, "My precious daughter, did you specially invite a friend over this time?"
"Yes." Al was a little shy, and her face reddened.
Queen Margaret was somewhat similar to Al, so she immediately asked curiously, "Al, where did you invite your friends from?
In the past, I've never seen you take the initiative to invite your friends over. Aren't you not familiar with your classmates? None of the royal families have seen you on good terms with anyone.
It was no wonder that the king and his wife were puzzled, because Al's circle of life was very small. She was beautiful since she was young, and she was very conspicuous when she went out. Her naturally shy personality limited her social circle.
The king and his wife were worried that their daughter would have social phobia and be depressed, so they specially invited a psychiatrist.
Fortunately, in the end, they found out that Al was just shy and introverted, not mentally ill.
As Al grew up, the king would specially let her participate in some foreign affairs visits in the hope that his daughter would have more contact with people.
"I met him at an event in Enamel Country last time," Al said vaguely.
The king had a gratified expression on his face as he smiled and said, "That's great, my precious princess has also made friends. Come, introduce us."
At this time, Ye Fan and Sally also walked to the side.
Al smiled happily at the two of them. Then, she communicated with her eyes and said, "Welcome, Fran, Sally."
Long before they came, Sally had told Al that Ye Fan would use the homonym of the code name FALLEN, so Al naturally wouldn't call him wrongly.
"Happy birthday, Al." Ye Fan bowed in a noble manner. These etiquettes naturally wouldn't be difficult for him.
"Your Highness Daisy, happy birthday. You are so beautiful today." Sally also gave Al her sincere blessings.
She was very grateful to Al. After all, Al had brought her out of Moxi City and stayed behind for a period of time for INFERNO.
When the king and his wife saw Sally, their eyes revealed a look of amazement. This was the first time they had seen a Western woman who was able to share the limelight with their daughter.
In fact, at this moment, a large number of gazes in the banquet hall were focused on them. Al's naturally curly amber hair and Sally's naturally straight hair were both very unique.
The two women were like spring and winter, two delicate flowers competing with each other in beauty, attracting a lot of attention.
Ai'er was a famous world-class beauty, so no one was surprised. Moreover, she was the successor to the Rui Dian Third King, so most people knew that she was out of reach.
However, the mysterious Sally Ye gave many people room to fantasize. Many noble men wanted to know where Sally Ye came from and were eager to get close to her.
"Thank you," Al introduced her parents.
Ye Fan and Sally naturally recognized this couple. They smiled and said, "Your Majesty Gutav, Queen Margaret, it's an honor to meet you."
"Welcome, Al's friends. We didn't know that Al had made friends before. Looking at this young man, he seems to be from the East?"
Gustav was somewhat puzzled. How did Al get to know an Asian man? The key was that the difference in appearance between her and the woman beside her was too great.
Ye Fan gave a simple introduction, "My sister and I are of the same race, but we are not biological siblings."
"Oh, so that's how it is..." Gutav and Margaret immediately understood. No wonder they didn't look like the same race.
It was normal for large Western families to have mixed-bloods of different races.
Margaret's sharp eyes glanced at the medals worn by Ye Fan and Sally. After frowning slightly, she asked with a smile, "So you guys are from Ying?"
"Yes, Queen."
Ye Fan and Sally nodded. Before they entered, they had already put on the noble badge.
This was also what Sally had prepared at the last minute. She had used her connections to get their fake identities into the noble register.
The male Lord of Ying, as well as the DBE Lady of the same level, were actually equivalent to the lowest level of knighthood.
Generally speaking, only those who contributed to society could obtain it. To put it bluntly, many people bought it with money.
If it was an ordinary occasion, even a low-ranked Lord would still be a noble. However, in a royal banquet like this, where the room was filled with nobles, this title was truly too lowly.
In fact, some of the older nobles didn't even think that a low-ranked Lord could be considered a noble and scoffed at such a title.
Ye Fan also knew this point, which was why he felt that Sally was a little too low-key. However, since he was already here, he could only make do with this identity.
Although the times were changing and the nobles were gradually fading out of the public eye, in the true upper echelons of society, the nobles were still the nobles. They had their inherent pride and self-respect, and their ranks were also abnormally clear.
This was also why many rich people tried their best to obtain the title of nobility.
For ordinary people, the end of money was not power, but reputation.
Power was temporary, and only fame and honor could be passed down through the ages.
It was naturally impossible for the King and Queen to be very enthusiastic towards the two knights. If it weren't for Al, they wouldn't have been willing to lower themselves to chat.
"Al, which family do these two friends of yours come from?" Queen Margaret asked tentatively.
She didn't know how to answer. She was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to open her mouth.
"Queen, our family isn't big. You definitely haven't heard of it before. It's not worth mentioning."
"Oh … What do you two siblings usually do?" Margaret asked again.
Hearing this, Ai'er felt embarrassed and advised, "Mother, why are you asking about this?"
"It's rare for you to have friends, so of course we want to know more." The Queen smiled. "What's wrong? Can't I ask?"
She looked at Ye Fan and Sally apologetically. She didn't expect that the first time she brought her friends to meet her parents, it would be such a scene.
Ye Fan didn't care, this was very normal, so he said, "I do a little of everything, and I don't have any special industries to focus on."
"It's good to try everything. Seeing that you're still young," Margaret said politely.
After simply asking these questions, the king and his wife had already come to a conclusion in their hearts.
This pair of siblings were most likely nouveau riche who had spent money to buy a title. Their daughter was also very simple, so she was tricked by them into becoming friends.
They had seen many of these merchants who wanted to use their relationship with the royal family to sneak into the upper class of society.
However, in front of Al, the king and his wife still maintained their politeness and did not reveal any expressions of disdain on their faces.
Of course, since they had discovered the problem with this pair of siblings, they would not allow Ai'er to have any more contact with them.
"Sir Fran, Lady Sally, thank you for coming to celebrate our daughter's birthday. You can go and taste the reindeer meat made by our royal chef. It tastes pretty good." Gutaf said.
It sounded like a polite thank you, but it also implied that the conversation was over. Go and do what you need to do.
Queen Margaret smiled and pulled Al's arm, saying, "Darling, Prince Will of the Helan Royal Family has prepared a special birthday present for you. Let's go take a look."
When Al heard this, a trace of reluctance appeared on her face. "But I haven't spoken to Fran and Sally yet …" I want to show them around here. "
"The servants will take care of this. You must not let down Prince Will's intentions!"
After saying that, the King and Queen brought Al to a lawn outside the banquet hall.
She could only turn her head to look at Ye Fan with an apologetic look in her eyes.
Ye Fan didn't mind. He waved his hand and told her to take care of herself.
