In this way, An and Miku officially entered into a marriage contract under the witness of various important figures in the kingdom.
Mei Ke was so happy that she got very drunk at the banquet. Thanks to her remembering the special occasion, she didn't act drunkenly, but the smile on her face never faded, and she was quieter than usual, quite a bit like a drunken beauty.
Many men wanted to come up and talk to her, but when they saw Hairen standing next to her and never leaving even when talking to important dignitaries in the kingdom, they seemed to understand something, and no one dared to step forward rashly. After knowing that Mei was An's sister, she gave up her little thoughts.
Today is a happy day for everyone in the theater troupe. Not only Meiko, except for the youngest Enru who was stopped by Jerry, everyone else drank more or less. In order to take care of the girls, Mrs. Saye deliberately stayed away from alcohol after the banquet, and acted as a guardian, saving them a lot of trouble.
Now that the banquet has begun to end, the young masters and ladies returned to their elders. After saying goodbye to their acquaintances, they returned one by one in their own carriages.
An could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He smiled back at the person who greeted him, pulled Miku, who was exhausted and had a stiff expression on his face, and walked towards Meiko and the others.
"Thank you for your hard work. Well done. Treat Miku well in the future, you know?!"
It was okay for Meike not to speak, but when she spoke she was not only incoherent but also tongue-tied. An turned her words around in her head before she understood what she was going to say.
"Yeah, yeah, okay, okay." An, who was no longer surprised by her sister's drunk appearance, responded with a smile.
He is not being perfunctory, but for drunk people, if you speak well, the other person may not be able to understand what you mean. Repeating the same word several times like this will actually reflect the depth of emotion to them.
Miku was amused by the interaction between the siblings and seemed to be more energetic.
After asking Shia's father to help bring back greetings to King Kallion, Liliana and Leonhardt also came over.
"Oh, I've had enough of being a master of ceremonies!" Liliana no longer spoke as dignified as before, but became more casual.
The way Xiaoyue looked at her gave people an inexplicable chill, but Liliana herself didn't realize it.
An was amused, but didn't intend to remind her.
Liliana, on the other hand, seemed to have a lot to say.
"I feel like you are different today. Can just getting engaged make people more stable?" Liliana looked at An with a probing look in her eyes.
"What do you mean?" An didn't quite understand. He didn't feel that he was any different from usual.
An's answer made Liliana misunderstand: "Don't be embarrassed, your behavior today made my head maid, who is famous for her strictness, full of praise. There are only a handful of people in the entire empire who can get such high praise from her! "
Liliana seemed to be hinting at something, and Leonhardt was also looking at An at this time.
Miku's brows twitched and her eyes looked towards where Xiaoyue was - she misunderstood the meaning.
Xiaoyue came up behind Liliana at some point and said close to her ear: "Don't you understand? What I said is that I hope you can learn from Mr. An. Your Highness, you represent the empire after all. , you must not slack off in your every move outside, even a small mistake may be magnified into a face problem for the empire. I once had the responsibility to teach you etiquette, but you repeatedly ignored my advice, which makes I’m very troubled @#¥%…”
Xiaoyue's voice lingered in her ears like the words of a ghost. Liliana could not help but tremble, but she did not dare to escape at all. Her face turned from red to white and then to blue, which made people laugh.
Miku's cheeks puffed up and he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
An smiled knowingly and said: "Miss Xiaoyue is right. Etiquette is an indispensable part for nobles. Your status is so noble, this part is even more important. You must study hard and practice hard." .You think I am special today, maybe because I am slacking off, right?"
Hearing An's words, Xiaoyue stopped her endless preaching and bowed deeply to him: "It's my honor that you can understand."
Although Xiaoyue's expression did not change and she did not say any unnecessary words, it gave people the impression that she was lamenting, "My child is really annoying."
And this special "child", the royal daughter Liliana, was not angry when her head maid said this. Instead, like a naughty child who had just escaped from an adult's scolding, she kept winking at An, hoping that he would say more. Something to divert Xiaoyue's attention.
Mrs. Shaye was about to say something, but she was amused by the interactions between these young people one after another. She laughed and hit Hutto on the arm, making Hutto very helpless.
An did not stand idly by this time, coughed twice and said: "It's you who have worked hard there. But don't worry, in my opinion, Ling is not ignoring your advice, she just hopes to have some time to relax. I want to formally She hasn’t made a single mistake on the occasion, right?”
Liliana took a step forward and nodded repeatedly in Xiaoyue's field of vision.
Xiaoyue's expression appeared dazed for a moment, and she paused before saluting again: "Thank you for the reminder."
Liliana, who had originally written a lot of notes to say to An, now didn't want to say a word and pushed An and Miku downstairs.
"Alright, it's getting late. Let's go home and rest quickly. I've prepared a carriage for you!"
Liliana's words were full of concealment.
But Xiaoyue was not talking, she seemed to be thinking about something.
Because they were in a good mood, Miku and the others were still very energetic, but after laughing, Miku became sleepy again. She opened and closed her eyes for a while, and was worried that she would fall. Fortunately, An was holding her hand. .
An also yawned as she walked.
Liliana laughed and said: "The two protagonists have really worked hard today. Let's have a good rest after going back."
All the way to the first floor, the guests had almost left by now, and the waiters in the restaurant were cleaning up the mess of the banquet.
When the guests who have not yet left bowed and said goodbye, Liliana would resume her posture as an imperial princess and nod in greeting. On An and Miku's side, Hutto and Saya returned the favor, and the others followed behind.
Walk out of the restaurant door and come to where the carriage is parked. Everyone took the transportation back when they came, and Shirley was already waiting here at some point.
"Your Highness, how are you going to return?" Hutto asked when he didn't see Liliana's carriage.
Leonhardt replied: "Someone will drive His Highness's transportation vehicle over later. You know, it will not be convenient if it is parked here..."
Leonhardt said it more vaguely, but Hutto reacted quickly.
After all, Liliana is the princess of the empire, so even in a relatively safe environment, she still needs to take precautions.
Hutto said ashamedly: "I was negligent."
"It doesn't matter. Mr. Hutto was also intoxicated just now."
Mrs. Saye poked Hutto's waist.
At the banquet, because he had to socialize with various parties, Hutto did drink a lot of wine, and it was normal for him to be a little confused.
"Get in the car, everyone, I hope we can get together again if we are destined." Liliana smoothed things over just right.
After Hutto and others said goodbye, they walked towards the carriage.
After Shirley opened the car door for Hutto, she turned around and opened the door for An and them again.
"No, no, no, I'll do it."
An, who had unconsciously walked to the side of the carriage due to sleepiness, stopped Shirley from the distance and held the door handle himself.
He looked at Miku who was half leaning on him and said, "Cheer up and go to sleep after you get in the car."
"Do you need us to make room?" Mei Ke joked.
An rolled his eyes at her, then shook his head in amusement: "I'm sorry, I'll go up and take a nap first. I really can't hold on..."
He said, slowly opening the car door.
"Whoosh——" A sound that broke through the air suddenly sounded.
The small objects hidden in the darkness shot like sharp arrows at the unsuspecting An and the sleepy Miku.
Shirley's expression changed and her figure moved suddenly. At the same time, Leonhardt, who was far away, subconsciously picked up his dagger and threw it at the small black shadow. Others didn’t even react!
But neither Leonhardt nor Shirley are as close to Sombra as An and Miku! !
It can only be a miracle that the last one arrives first! ! !
"Tsk—" the sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh.
Blood splashed onto Miku's frightened cheeks.
"install?!!"
