Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

"Are you stimulated by your sister's words?"

On the balcony, Bai Yu looked at the silent Cordelia.

"I just...feel a little strange." Cordelia gently held her forehead: "I never thought about this when I was at home."

"Because the presence of you, the saint, is enough to act as a facade, just like a big tree. Standing there, you can block the sun, rain and dew." Bai Yu crossed his arms: "And when you disappear , this pressure falls on others.”

In the final analysis, the name of Archduke Bach is too great. To support the name of the Bach family, a sufficiently thick ballast stone is needed.

Generally, a canonization is required.

If there really was a saint in the Bach family, he would not have been frightened by the Roman emperor into giving up the principality.

Bach's background was sufficient, but it did not translate into strength. They had been resting on their laurels, so they were ecstatic when Cordelia was released. Once she no longer supported the facade, their true colors were immediately exposed and they had to find another way out.

Nowadays, marriage is just for the sake of dignity and disgrace.

Of course, after all that is said, it ultimately comes back to the problem itself.

"How do you plan to solve it?" Bai Yu asked: "As long as you come forward, this issue can be brought back on track and the marriage can be stopped."

"This is just procrastination. The fundamental problem has not been solved." Cordelia held on to the railing and said hard with her fingers: "And I don't want to continue to be a saint. On the way back, I was thinking of resigning."

"...Can you still resign?"

"Of course, sainthood is a position. After I resign, I will only retain the honorary title." Cordelia closed her eyes: "Andre's death told me a simple truth. I was indeed too willful in the past. , the world does not run according to my ideas, it was my willfulness that killed him. The position of a saint is of great significance, and this is not something someone like me can afford."

"Now you have a bit of the demeanor that a saint should have." Bai Yu teased, and then said seriously: "But your father will not agree."

"That old guy..." Cordelia said angrily: "He should accept the fact that the Bach family has declined. What's the point of continuing to support this name? Will the emperor look down upon him because of this? "

Bai Yu didn't speak.

Acknowledging the reality requires the courage to face the pain, and being intoxicated with the glory and fantasy of the past is precisely the characteristic of the aristocracy.

People who live in the old era cannot wake up with just a few lessons.

Cordelia seemed to have made a certain decision. She changed her sad expression and smiled suddenly.

"I want to do something now, something bold."

"Maybe it will be difficult to end, but... I don't want to think about the consequences anymore."

"Perhaps three years have passed and this family has become a stagnant water, so we should have a good time to make a fuss."

Bai Yu turned sideways and made a 'please' gesture.

He had guessed what Cordelia wanted to do, and instead of trying to dissuade her, he actually admired her.

Daxia people were completely unaware that they were becoming more and more fond of her... Even if they were aware of it, they would think it was the influence of the universal golden rule.

But when the brave Cordelia was about to push the door open, she suddenly stopped and showed a weak and pitiful expression.

Hence the cuteness.

"If something serious is going to happen, you must remember to come and save me."

I know she can't be more handsome than three seconds.

only……

Bai Yu covered her mouth and nose and responded with a faint nasal voice.

He hid his expression because the contrast just now was so cute to him, especially the way the ears on the top of his head stood up.

…

No matter how cute Cordelia appears in front of Bai Yu, 'aggression' is the main theme of her character.

In fact, every saint in the Holy Church is full of personality, and among the saints with full personality, she is also considered unique.

The proud daughter of God who is gifted with the mysterious Golden Rule. A girl born with such a script can tie up her younger brothers and sisters with ropes and go out to play with wolf cubs.

Her lawlessness and absurd operations can be felt from just a few words. In this family, she has the absolute throne, even surpassing her biological father to a certain extent.

However, Cordelia had never caused embarrassment to her father in front of outsiders.

Unless I can't help it...

At this time, she walked towards the kitchen. Under the gazes of several servants at home, the first glance was dull, the second was shock, and the third was petrification. She casually took the expensive champagne from one of the servants, raised her head and drank it. He took a sip of courage, then walked to the living room with the bottle of wine.

In the living room at this time.

The head of the Bach family, Grand Justice Bach, entertained the father and son of the Murfat family at his home.

Murfat is a new type of bourgeois aristocrat who has great connections with business giants and therefore has great influence in both the political and business circles.

Although Archduke Bach has the title of Grand Duke, he used to follow the royalist line. Now he wants to change his mind and follow the party line. He still lacks experience and support. He is a complete political amateur. It is especially important to find a trustworthy partner in advance. important.

The Murfats were a suitable marriage partner.

But personally, it doesn't really matter.

Lena was sitting at the dining table, obviously a little restless and nervous. She had just grown up and was only eighteen years old.

And her marriage partner is the eldest son of the Murfat family. He is already a middle-aged man in his mid-thirties. His appearance is remarkable, and he has had two de facto marriages... so his reputation is not good. not good.

But since it is a marriage, it has nothing to do with who the specific marriage partner is. What is important is whether the two heads of the family agree... It is more like whether the two old guys are a bastard versus a mung bean.

At the dinner table, Archduke Bach and the head of the Fat family exchanged glasses with each other.

The Grand Duke also motioned with his eyes to his daughter to go sit with the eldest son of the Fat family.

Lena walked over, restrained her emotions, and greeted politely, but she was met with a pair of rather indifferent eyes.

Jordan, the eldest son of the Fat family, had cold eyes and seemed to have no interest in this beautiful girl who had just turned eighteen.

"After tonight, Bach and Murfat will be engaged..." he said: "But I have no interest in you. This marriage is just a formal marriage. I hope you understand this and get married. Finally, don’t pretend to be a hostess.”

Lena clenched the goblet in her hand and forced a smile: "I don't quite understand what you mean. Since it's a marriage, I can try my best to make you like me. After all, I want to start a family... "

"Little girl, don't impose your longing for marriage on other people." Jodson looked coldly: "I already have my own lover, but I can't enter into a marriage contract with him for various reasons... This is just a formality. You are my wife to outsiders, but in fact, there are only simple interests between you and me."

Lena took a deep breath and held back the tumbling emotions inside her. Strong grievances and resentments were growing.

She had just turned eighteen, and she still had good years and a bright future ahead of her, but she had to become a victim of a marriage. This was already too much. However, the words from the other party pushed her to the bottom, directly revealing the truth behind this marriage. Doomed to a life without happiness.

This made her both aggrieved and desperate.

But she couldn't have an attack yet, so she could only drink silently. Her movements were too eager, so she choked and practiced coughing.

"Of course." Jodson held her shoulders and said, "If you insist on me doing something, I will also fulfill my duty and give you a child."

"..."

"It's just that I don't like women. You have to do artificial work."

Lena opened her eyes wide, turned her cheek and asked, "Are you humiliating me?"

"If you think telling the truth is humiliating, that's it." Jodson said sarcastically: "We all know what the reality is, and it's not necessary to say something so ugly."

For a moment, the flames in Lena's eyes seemed to burn the other party to ashes.

But her anger soon turned into sadness, and she knew that even if she stretched out her claws, she would not be able to scratch the other person's face.

She also had to endure it. For the sake of her family, this was just a small sacrifice.

Jodson didn't say anything on the surface, but he was even more disappointed in his heart.

If this girl had the guts to throw a drink in his face, maybe he could even take a high look at the Bach family.

The old man's judgment was correct. All that was left of the Bach family was their name and an empty shell, so there was nothing to worry about.

Even if he supports Archduke Bach to enter the Senate, he is just drifting with the crowd and fat on the chopping board.

He picked up the wine glass, looked at the empty glass, and thought of the current situation of the Bach family, he couldn't help but become presumptuous, and said in a low voice: "Pour me some wine."

He seemed to be giving an order to the waiter, but in fact he was saying it to Lena...

The little girl shook her shoulders, raised her hands, and was about to hold the bottle of champagne, when suddenly...

Crash-!

A bottle of wine fell down, but it didn't fall into the glass.

Instead, it fell on Jodson's head, wetting his not-so-thick hair, flowing down his face and into his neck, and wetting his clothes, chest and back.

The eldest son of the Murfat family was so shocked that he froze in his seat and did not move as a whole bottle of champagne was poured over him.

Lena on the side was also stunned, looking at Qian Ying who was holding an empty bottle and throwing it on the dining table. Her eyes were immediately filled with mist.

No matter how much she complained in her heart, the moment she stood up and appeared here, Lena had put all her grudges behind her.

My sister is still the same sister as before, without any change.

The movement here was quickly noticed by the other side of the banquet.

The head of the Murfat family and Archduke Bach each showed expressions of confusion and anger.

Archduke Bach angrily shouted: "What are you doing!"

"Pour some wine."

The woman standing sideways in the hall replied calmly: "By the way, teach this blind bastard a lesson. Even my sister dares to boss around and bully me. Who do you think you are?"

Archduke Bach was even more furious: "You..."

But the next moment, he saw clearly who was speaking and almost fell back into his seat.

"Lea...Lea..."

"Hello, father."

Cordelia turned around with a smile, and the saint's peerless appearance with golden dewdrops appeared again on the land of Europa after three years.

"How, how could you...are you back?"

Archduke Bach didn't have time to get angry, he just felt incredible and full of surprises, but then he heard Murfat's cough from the side. He immediately remembered his previous actions and said with a straight face: "Even if you come back, you shouldn't be such a fool. Please apologize to Master Jordan!"

Cordelia's smile became even sweeter.

"Why should I apologize?"

"I did what I should do as a sister, what's wrong?"

"As for how I came back... it's very simple. It's because the current Bach family is really disappointing and too useless. So I was so angry that I just opened the coffin and ran home all the way. Just for this kick."

She turned sideways and kicked the dining table with a roundhouse kick. The dazzling array of dishes and exquisite tableware were scattered all over the floor, making the place a mess in an instant.

The saint sighed happily, and then said to the archduke.

"Father, my daughter, I came back alive from the underworld!"

"I am opposed to today's marriage!"

"No one agrees with it!"
