"Shia, come here, come here!"
Caroline lowered her voice and waved to her brother.
In this banquet where the participants were either rich or distinguished, she had to be careful enough not to be discovered. Otherwise, you will encounter a "double blow" from outsiders and family members. Maybe, the attack on the family will be a little more focused, because it will embarrass the family.
But girls can’t control so much!
She's grown up now and has ideas of her own. She believed that her brother had the same plan!
Shia heard the call, and the tacit understanding between siblings allowed him to quickly understand Caroline's thoughts.
At first, Shia had some thoughts, but after being trained as the next head of the family since childhood, he did not run away from his father's side regardless of the consequences like his sister.
'It's better not to go, father will be angry. '
Shia mouthed this to Caroline.
He still remembered that before going out today, his father specifically warned them that every move today must be in line with etiquette.
Although Shia's family also received invitations, they came to attend An and Miku's engagement party today. They represented more of the royal family.
There is an unspeakable reason why King Caerleon did not send himself or send any prince or princess. That is the sea man, Kanter, who is the great prince of the kingdom, he is here.
Normally speaking, in non-special occasions, the symbolic meaning of the eldest prince is sufficient and quite large, more than enough to cope with the engagement banquet hosted by the princess of the empire. Unless the engaged parties are from the royal family of the empire, then it is worthwhile for the royal family of the kingdom to send another member.
But the embarrassing thing is that Kaito is not only the eldest prince of the kingdom, but also a member of the theater troupe. If you insist on speaking, he is a relative and friend of the two betrothed people, and he should have appeared at the engagement banquet.
This complicated identity made King Carion confused for a long time after receiving the invitation, wondering whether he should let another member of the royal family come over.
If you come, it will appear that you take this engagement banquet too seriously, and it will push Hai Ren into a not so good position, causing criticism from others.
If they don't come, it's hard to say whether Hairen can fully represent the royal family of the kingdom.
The organizer of the engagement banquet was Princess Liliana of the Empire, and both parties to the engagement were young talents whom he was very optimistic about, and they were also closely related to Hutto. If something went wrong, it would cause a headache for a long time.
In the end, Shia's father took the initiative to propose to Carlion that he come to the engagement banquet as the king's representative.
Shia's father is in charge of the kingdom's clerical work. In the eyes of the kingdom's nobles, he is the first relay of orders from the royal family and is highly trusted by King Carion. As a messenger of the king, he is very suitable in terms of status and ability.
After thinking about it, Kallion decided that this was the safest option and readily agreed.
Shia's father also happily took over this important mission. In order to avoid making any mistakes, he even warned the two naughty little guys in his family before leaving.
Shia listened to her father's admonishment, but now it seems that the effect on Caroline is not that good.
Not only did her brother's reminder fail to wake her up, it also made her dissatisfied with his "submissive" behavior.
'If you don't go, then I will go! '
Caroline used her mouth movements and hand gestures to express her feelings to Shia "aggressively".
Shia shrank her neck and subconsciously looked at her father who was talking to an acquaintance beside her. Driven by the pressure from Caroline's eyes and his own inner hope, he took a step back and carefully walked away from the crowd.
Caroline showed a satisfied look, looked at Shia who came to her side, and nodded: "Good job, let's go!"
Shia drooped her head, her excitement mixed with worry: "I hope my father will not tell my mother about this matter again, otherwise we will have to do more deportment training in addition to being scolded."
The person talking to Shia's father suddenly looked to his side.
"Hey, where are your two children?"
Shia's father was stunned for a moment and suddenly looked at the empty sides. Slowly, he put his fingers on his forehead, covered most of his face with his palms, and sighed deeply.
Leaving behind the headache of their old father and the consequences he would suffer in the future, the two children had already arrived in the corridor and walked towards the stairs with the wind at their feet.
They were going to find An and Miku.
The two young people, who are about to get engaged, are welcoming guests who have arrived.
The two siblings saw An when they first arrived, followed by Miku who came to him. At that time, they wanted to talk to the two of them, but due to their father's presence, they couldn't even say a word and could only say hello with their eyes.
"We have to send our blessings to them now, otherwise when the banquet officially starts, we won't be able to speak!" Caroline said to Shia earnestly, "Have you seen the guests present? They are all Those with noble status or holding a lot of wealth are like trees in the woods! By then, I’m afraid even some of them won’t be able to talk to Brother An and Sister Miku, let alone us!”
"But, we can send our blessings when they hold a formal wedding."
The act of secretly escaping from his father still made Shia feel a little guilty, which made him speak in a biased way.
"What was then was what was then, and what is now is indispensable!" Caroline stopped and said seriously, almost letting Shia bump into her.
After hearing what Caroline said, Shia thought about it and felt it was right.
Moreover, I even ran away...
"Ah, it's them!"
Through the gap in the guardrail, Caroline saw An and Miku. The two stood side by side, talking to the guests with smiles on their faces.
"Look at them, how well they match each other!" Caroline suddenly fell into a state of infatuation. "My biggest dream is to meet such a beautiful relationship one day."
Shia's performance was not as bad as Caroline's.
Although she also envied the love between these two people, Shia admired their talents that surpassed everyone at a young age and was determined to learn from them.
"Um?"
Shia suddenly noticed something different.
Compared with the last time they met, An's performance was more calm and calm. Facing this distinguished guest whose father had to salute even when he saw him, he still didn't panic at all. His conversation and actions were more precise than his etiquette teacher, and compared with the teacher, More affinity.
Although Miku did not participate in the conversation, she just stood there, making people feel elegant and generous, even a real princess could not compare with her.
So perfect!
Shia had such a sigh in her heart.
He looks forward to the day when he can be as good as them.
"No, hide now!"
Seeing the guest who was talking to An being brought up by the waiter, Caroline reacted suddenly, pulled the dazed Shia back, and hid in an unoccupied cubicle.
This man knew their father and would definitely recognize them if he saw them, which was not what she wanted to see.
After they left, the two of them walked out of the cubicle.
After glancing down along the guardrail to confirm that no guests were coming, the two of them ran down the stairs.
He raised his head when he heard the sound and saw the two people coming down. He put his hands on his hips.
It was obviously a casual and lazy movement, but in the eyes of the two siblings going down the stairs, it was extremely attractive and had an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Caroline and Shia's movements suddenly became restrained, as if they were standing in front of their father.
"It's you." An's smile was a little helpless.
