Not long after, Gu Hanhan changed into mourning clothes and came out. Lewen is a long black skirt with sleeves. The hem of the skirt has been covering the top of the feet and dragging to the ground. Her long hair was tied tightly in a bun behind her head, and the black stiff gauze curved down from the brim of her hat to cover her eyes. The only decorations were diamonds and white pearls. It was indeed a hibiscus emerging from clear water, and she instantly aged ten years. This made Gu Hanhan feel annoyed again because he signed the contract too quickly and became a widow in a daze.
The airship was ready in the courtyard, there were a lot of servants, and the guards lined up from the room to the spiral staircase. Hebrew finished some family affairs, changed his clothes, and came to invite him in person. Gu Hanhan retreated and had no choice but to be surrounded and boarded the airship in despair. If Hebrew was willing, he could understand Gu Hanhan's frustration, so he stayed with Gu Hanhan and comforted her, saying that although the traditional mourning period for nobles was three years, in fact, the Acropolis never respected widows. After the funeral, about Then you can take off your black clothes and no longer have to mourn.
Saying this made Gu Hanhan feel very embarrassed. "It's okay, Mr. Hebrew," she said, "I'm not reluctant to wear mourning clothes for David for a while. I'm very sorry for him, but it's too late -"
The spacecraft soon arrived at the Super Power Association, and Gal brought people to greet it on the rooftop apron. Among the crowd, the patriarch of the Xia Peng family, who had bribed Gu Hanhan with a planet, was standing out. He actually slipped out of the negotiation table of the inheritance distribution meeting and rushed to tell Gu Hanhan before everyone else. Flattery and sincerity. As soon as they met, he gave a big salute to Gu Hanhan, and his attitude was even more flattering than when David was around, so much so that even Hebra couldn't help but feel sick, and asked him to step back temporarily. Gu Hanhan felt funny in his heart. After all, the situation was not clear yet, and it was impossible for the Xia Peng clan leader to know the true relationship between himself and Anthony. He had the courage and determination to do such a thing without caring about his face. Families that have developed mistress politics specialize in this field, and you don't have to admire them even if you don't want to.
Immediately afterwards, Anthony's airship arrived, and sure enough, it met Gu Hanhan on the rooftop. When they got off the airship, Chiyo had already pushed Sasha aside and followed Anthony step by step, as if he was already his most trusted confidant. While Gu Hanhan was dumbfounded, he only had one word in his mind: "I am convinced" - the chief attendants of the Acropolis are indeed great. It is said that when you walk to the end of the water and sit and watch the clouds rise, this time you can see the sun with your eyes open. Even if they are in dire straits and are destined to die, as long as they are given a chance, they can seize the opportunity to turn around and rise to the top again. How long did it take for him to successfully change the door and climb up to Anthony, the soaring flower on the top of the mountain? How on earth did he accomplish such a great thing? Why can’t I, the fifth most beautiful girl on Earth, never do it?
The followers did not dare to act carelessly towards Anthony now, and all of them, including Hebrews, saluted with great respect. Anthony didn't care and walked up to Gu Hanhan. Seeing that she was quite stunning in her widow's dress, he reached out and pinched her earlobe that was embedded with pearls and diamonds, and finally said mockingly: "Not bad, it's only a few minutes." See, you have successfully made yourself a widow - the black dress in the monastery matches you well, so is this why you are making noises about becoming a widow?"
"Bah, if you want to be pretty, you have to be covered in soap." Gu Hanhan tugged Anthony's hand: "Stop talking nonsense, now you are the widow's fiancé!"
Anthony was speechless.
"Don't be nervous," Gu Hanhan glanced with disdain and was very unhappy, "I don't really want you to marry me, but I just want to lend you this tiger skin for a show. You must behave well and don't say goodbye. The performance was ruined!"
She grabbed Anthony's arm and encouraged: "It's very simple. As long as you perform your true colors and put away all your bad acting skills and don't use them randomly, there will be no problem." Then she threatened viciously: "If you fail in your performance, you will be fine." Wait until you come home with me to meet Ms. Li Shufen and become my fiancé——"
Anthony suddenly grabbed Gu Hanhan's head to interrupt her threat, covered her lips with his mouth, and kissed her happily. After feeling a breath of bad breath, he let go of her and gave her his arm. Then said: "Let's go!"
Gu Hanhan was so dazed by the kiss that it took her a while to wake up and thought to herself - is this the beginning of the show? Hey, Anthony's acting skills have improved a lot! Humph, I must have practiced too much on Black Widow’s hookups recently! He definitely kissed the Black Widow, and more than once! This bastard!
The group of people was personally led by the deacon of the temple and went down to the arbitration office located underground, which was a huge circular conference hall. The golden throne at the highest point in the center was alone and empty, and on both sides, along the perimeter of the conference hall, thousands of seats on the seven floors inside and outside had been filled by David Duran's vassals. Super-powered nobles, secular monarchs, conglomerate families, and even high-level servants and ability users abound. There were sounds of quarrels from all directions, and countless disputes were going on at the same time. The subordinates at the upper level were hiding behind them, and the subordinates at the lower level were shirtless, creating a mess everywhere. The high-ranking aristocrats or monarchs who are proud of their status will not end up in person, but their attendants or representatives do their duty, even duty-bound. Small and medium-sized families with weak power are even as independent as knights, and their loyal servants have to fight for power and gain a future without letting an inch of land muddy a pool of spring water. So different people argued with different opponents in different positions, yelled, cursed, accused each other, and even got angry and rolled on the ground. Someone jumps into the battle group at any time, and someone quits the battle group and joins a new one at any time. The smoke is billowing, the gourd is pressed, and the gourd rises. The red priest presiding over the meeting is so anxious that he is really unable to mediate. The situation is really embarrassing!
Gu Hanhan took Anthony's arm and walked through the colonnade surrounding the conference room. The terrain went from low to high. Most of the vassal heads and important members of the Acropolis's great nobility were hiding in the compartments behind the colonnade. Because the marriage contract had not been officially announced, it was inconvenient to stand up to pay tribute. However, when Gu Hanhan and Anthony passed by, these distinguished Excellencies Their gazes falling on them became even more profound and difficult to distinguish.
Anthony took Gu Hanhan's arm and carried her to the specially vacated booth seat high up at the end of the colonnade. Chiyo promptly reported that the rest room was ready, so Anthony bent down and kissed the corner of Gu Hanhan's mouth in full view of everyone.
"It's not convenient for me to be present at the Dulan family's inheritance meeting, but you can do whatever you want and call me anytime if you need it." He said, "I'll pick you up after it's over."
Then he left the conference room accompanied by Chiyo and went to the lounge specially prepared for him on the upper floor.
Facts have proved that once Anthony puts aside his flashy and exaggerated acting style and acts in his true nature, his acting skills are still very good and reliable. Wherever he goes, the fighting stops and the quarrels come to an abrupt end - yes, the upstart in Acropolis is in the limelight. Potential people are now the only potential people. Who doesn’t know the people who come here, and who dares not to pay attention to them? When Anthony left the door, all the quarrels stopped, and the meeting was silent. Everyone looked at Gu Hanhan. Even if the news was completely blocked, the lower-level subordinates who were still kept in the dark couldn't help feeling at this time. The club noticed and associated it.
Gal took this opportunity to invite Gu Hanhan. Although Garr had previously revealed the marriage contract to some important Acropolis nobles in the sect, and had reached a certain level of tacit understanding through private negotiations. In short, the agreement reached through the exchange of interests between Gu Hanhan and several high-ranking nobles will determine the final future of the sect, as well as the future and destiny of the remaining small and medium-sized families in the sect and all the lower-level vassals. But in terms of form, Gu Hanhan must also appear in person to explain to all the families and vassals of the sect. The final inheritance division agreement will also depend on the public commitment Gu Hanhan can make here before it can be finalized.
Gu Hanhan, surrounded by Hebrews and Gal, came to the golden throne and sat down where David sat before him. Thousands of people looked over at the same time, red, black, blue, green. There were countless eyeballs of all kinds like the tide all around. The air was extremely turbid, and an invisible huge pressure rushed towards them. . This is the first time that Gu Hanhan has faced so many people alone, but at this time, she has nothing to be afraid of or shrink from. She took a breath, her pounding heartbeat gradually calmed down, and she felt great - yes, it was nothing big, and there was nothing she couldn't do.
She raised her voice and said: "I am speaking to you here as the widow of David Duran. If anyone here has any objections to this, you can raise it now - Great Priest, please come here. Be a witness here.”
The high priest in red was invited to the foot of the steps of the throne, and Hebrew personally handed the marriage contract to the high priest. Therefore, the high priest read out the marriage contract and the notarized registration number of the certificate in the association in the solemn voice unique to the priest, and confirmed in the name of God that the marriage contract was true and valid, and was blessed by the blessings of the God of the Universe. of. While the red priest read out the identification, a copy of the marriage contract was passed to the hands of every vassal present. There is nothing to doubt or deny. David Duran's signature is clearly visible. It is reasonable and legal. Gu Hanhan is indeed David Duran's widow. The widow is her legal heir under both civil and religious law.
The air was stagnant for a short time, and the world was extremely silent, and then discussions burst out like a tide. Although all the vassals were prepared for this moment, when the speculation was finally confirmed in broad daylight, their emotions were still greatly impacted.
A widow! A widow with a legal marriage contract who can recruit a potential wife according to the aristocratic tradition to inherit the legal tradition and continue the sect! Moreover, this is a widow who is ready to attract potential candidates, and just now he and she were openly in love!
This is a huge turning point, and the future and destiny of everyone will change!
"Quiet!" Hebrews struck the golden bell with a small hammer.
Everyone shut their mouths and waited for this noble and priceless widow to speak.
