Hawke walked to the center of the banquet. At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
He looked at the guests with a faint smile and extended his grateful blessings to everyone.
"Thank you all for coming to my birthday party today. I am very happy that friends we have not seen for a long time are here again."
His voice was different from the coldness in the past, but had a touch of sincerity and warmth, making everyone present feel the gratitude and warmth deep in his heart. The guests also stood up one after another and raised their glasses in response to the host's speech.
“Happy Birthday!” “Happy birthday!”…
A burst of warm applause sounded, and the host slowly raised his glass and paid deep respect to everyone:
"Today, with everyone gathered together, I have another good news to announce——"
Zheng Xiyao suddenly raised her head and looked at the man who spoke in shock. Could he be trying to
"I'm getting married next month."
"Congratulations!"
"Very good."
"Congratulations, we are finally getting a marshal's wife."
"Who is the bride?"
Finally someone thought up and asked.
Everyone was curious, but most people's eyes fell on Freya.
"The bride..." Hawke's eyes met Zheng Xiyao's fearful eyes. At this time she was very afraid of men saying her name in public. After all, many people present knew about their past. If they knew that she lent it to Hawke again, who knew what trouble would happen.
Besides, there were people from the military court present at the scene, so she still felt a little guilty about what happened back then.
Zheng Xiyao shook her head at Hawke and said silently: "Don't say it."
Hawke smiled and continued loudly: "The bride is relatively shy. Besides, I have a special status, so I still want to ensure her safety. When we get married, everyone will naturally see the bride."
Although everyone was puzzled, it was hard to say anything when faced with the man's explanation.
Zheng Xiyao breathed a sigh of relief. Then, Zheng Xiyao said to the system: [Will the major changes in the male protagonist have an impact on the world? 】
[It is possible...]
[Is that a big impact? 】
[The impact is not big. After all, the main system only has one requirement for you now, that is, all the characters in this world are alive. You just need to complete the task. 】
Zheng Xiyao felt relieved after hearing this.
At this moment, Zheng Xiyao suddenly thought of something and said to the system: [By the way, I've always wanted to ask you, where are the points I accumulated in each world? 】
The system "cluttered" for a while, then he coughed dryly and said: [How to put this, it's a long story...]
Zheng Xiyao's voice turned cold: [Then you'll make a long story short, what's going on? 】
System [The problem is that it cannot be said in short. 】
【? 】
[Explain later, the hero is here. 】The system hurriedly fled away.
…
"What are you thinking about?" Hawke asked the woman who was still in a daze. He didn't expect that Zheng Xiyao could be so calm after he almost announced their marriage.
Zheng Xiyao deliberately avoided the approaching male protagonist and replied politely: "Führer, congratulations on your marriage."
Hawke raised his eyebrows when he saw this, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you?"
"We'd better keep our distance."
"Oh, why is it so unacceptable to you to marry me?"
Hearing this, Zheng Xiyao smiled and said: "How could it be? It's you who said the fake marriage was happening, and it's you who announced the marriage without consulting me. It doesn't matter whether I accept it or not. Great head of state."
Hawke looked deeply at the charming woman in front of him who was exuding coldness. I saw Zheng Xiyao congratulating him again respectfully in public: "Congratulations."
Then quickly escape from him.
"Hoke, what's going on?" Arthur and Freya approached the astonished man.
"Is she the first love you mentioned who abandoned you?" Freya curiously asked the man as she probed her head.
"You just said you wanted to get married. Isn't it because you are remarrying?" Seeing that the man didn't answer, Freya asked relentlessly.
Seeing this, Arthur raised his forehead and reached out to stop Freya: "Okay, don't ask. How come you, a movie queen, really don't gossip."
"As a movie queen, can't I gossip? Besides, it was obviously Hawke who said he wanted to get married. I'm just asking, can't I?" Freya retorted with her hands on her hips, her bright eyes glaring, her angry look as bright and moving as usual. The appearance is completely different, more lively and lovely.
Arthur was stunned for a moment and forgot to refute.
"Why, I have nothing to say." Freya said with a proud smile.
Arthur came back to his senses and replied helplessly: "Yes, yes, you are right. You are different from others. Others can't, but you can."
Freya was a little shy at this time. After all, Arthur rarely talked to her like this. When she said something, Arthur always said something else. Now, for some reason, he actually agreed with her.
Is there any conspiracy? Freya was a little skeptical.
"Tell me, what bad thoughts are you holding back?"
"Okay, don't you want to ask Hawke? Everyone has left." Arthur smiled and pointed at Hawke who had already left.
Only then did Freya realize that Hawke had left at some point.
"Congratulations Freya."
"Congratulations, we will definitely be there on the wedding day."
"Have you decided where to hold the wedding? Will it be in Lyles or Cons?"
When everyone saw Hawke leaving, they immediately gathered around and asked Freya questions.
Freya was confused, what is going on? Why do these people do this to her?
Isn't she the bride?
…
At that time, Zheng Xiyao was walking in the garden. Finally escaping that suffocating banquet, she didn't want to go back and face it for the time being.
I called the system for half a day, but got no response at all. She knew that the system must be hiding something from her.
She walked aimlessly to a corner of the garden and happened to see an unexpected person smoking.
The chef of Aria Restaurant——Lexer.
Lexer held a cigarette in one hand and put the other hand in his pocket. When he raised his eyes and saw him, he was surprised: "Zheng Xiyao?!"
Zheng Xiyao smiled and nodded, approaching the man.
Lexer put out the cigarette: "Why are you here?"
Zheng Xiyao: "Invited to the banquet."
Lexer exclaimed in surprise, "But weren't you taken away by the head of state? Aren't you the ones who run this place?" He squinted his eyes and gossiped, "Why are you still invited here?"
Zheng Xiyao said nothing.
"It's not easy to hang out with rich families." Lexer continued on his own, "You are still young, leave here as soon as possible while there is still a chance. I heard that at this banquet, the head of state will announce his relationship with the actress Freya. marriage news. You... better think about the future."
Zheng Xiyao pursed her lips slightly, as if she was smiling, but not as if she was smiling, "He and I are not what you think."
Lexer touched the tip of his nose after hearing this and said angrily, "Really? Do you have any grudges between you and him?"
Zheng Xiyao leaned lazily against a tree trunk and naturally stretched out her hand: "Give me a cigarette."
Lexer was surprised, then handed her one and lit it for her.
The woman squinted her eyes and took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled it. The smoke emitted from her mouth, forming a beautiful blue mist in the sunlight.
The already stunningly beautiful woman under the attire now has an even more lazy and mysterious look:
"Debt."
