What to do if your crush is the Earl

"You?" Tarner caught his subject, "You want to keep Xiao Sheng here?"

Martin paused. "That's the best way," he said.

"What happened?" Tarney's face became tense.

"It's nothing serious." Martin smiled and patted Tarney's shoulder. "His treatment is not over yet, so it's better to stay here. When I come next time, you have to give me back a piece of health." people."

Tarney carefully checked his expression again, but still couldn't see anything: "What about you?"

"I'm not serious myself..."

"You really don't take your body seriously." Tarney was really angry.It was the same before, Odin never remembered to take the prescribed medicine.At the most serious time, he came to him, drunk in the middle of the night, didn't fall asleep for three days, and his mental strength was so weak that he fell to the ground in a daze after being pushed lightly by him, which made people terrified.

"Brother Tal, I promise, I will come back as soon as the matter is finished, and continue to be your patient." Martin smiled and comforted him, and even became intimate in addressing him.

Tarney looked at him, checked again and again, and finally shook his head with a sigh: "There is nothing I can do about you...then you should pay more attention to yourself, and...tell Xiao Sheng well."

"I will." Martin lowered his head, and for a moment, his face seemed to be stern, making Tarnay seem to see the old earl when he was still alive.

"Odin, what age are you...?" Tarne called out to stop Martin, who was about to go out.

Martin paused for a moment, and said, "In March, it will be 28."

"28... It's been so long since I first saw you."

"Yes, time is not forgiving." Martin sighed with emotion.

"When the old earl went, you were not very old and hadn't prepared for anything. Now... you really don't plan to get married?"

A huge family property without an official heir is a big problem.Severe cases may cause political turmoil and mutiny in the territory.

Martin's expression was subtle, he paused for a while, and a half-smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What do you think?"

It seems that all is said and done.

Since it was Odin's own choice...

"Forget it, as long as you are happy."

"Sir, do you want to go back?" Xiao Sheng was leaning on the balcony of the bedroom on the second floor in a daze, and asked after hearing Martin's explanation.

Martin nodded.

"Then I'll pack my things."

Martin stopped his hand: "No, there's nothing to fix."

This expression is not right, there is something in the words, as if to explain something.

Xiao Sheng followed his lead and sat on the side of the bed, tilted his head and asked, "Sir... Is there something wrong?"

Martin looked at him, his black eyes were calm and trusting, and he said, "You stay."

"??" Xiao Sheng was silent for a moment, "Why?"

"Tarney said that you still need to rest. I'll go back to the Acropolis to deal with things. I'll come back to accompany you when I'm done." Martin looked at him seriously, his radiant green eyes could be called gentle.

But Xiao Sheng was obviously not appeased, and instead looked anxious: "What happened to the Acropolis, and you need to go back in person? Are the consuls unable to handle it?"

"There are indeed some things," Martin smiled, and kissed him on the forehead, "don't worry, okay?"

Gently and softly, gently conquering.

The originally planned rebuttal collapsed in an instant.

Xiao Sheng's heart was soft and anxious, he held back for a while without speaking, his expression gradually felt aggrieved, worried and puzzled, Martin interpreted them one by one, reached out to help him smooth his brows, touched his hands, his lips couldn't help it She leaned over, kissed her cheek lightly, and followed the smooth curve of her neck, making the other party tremble slightly, and hugged his head.

Gently panting up and down, Martin stepped back, looked at Xiao Sheng's misty eyes, and gently stroked his black hair with his hand:

"It's okay, it won't be long, I'll be back when the cork oaks in the garden start to drop their leaves, okay?"

Xiao Sheng couldn't bear teasing, his expression was still in a daze at the moment, his soul seemed to be floating in the crescent moon, and he just remembered to answer the man softly: "Okay..."

The voice floated, and the corners of the eyes were filled with tears.

Martin sighed softly, and raised his hand to help him wipe away his tears.

My dearest and most cherished, Xiao Sheng.

----

On the second day, the sky was clear and bright.

The carriage was ready, and it was another farewell.

"Bon voyage." Tarney had a smile on his face.

Standing aside, Xiao Sheng looked thin, with a calm expression on his face. He had already coughed several times when Martin got into the car.

Hug each other goodbye, and then sit in the car.

But Martin was always worried. The coachman was about to raise his whip and leave, so he stopped again, got out of the carriage again, and came to Xiao Sheng.

"Sir?" Xiao Sheng was a little taken aback, and there was a small surprise.

Martin untied the shawl on his shoulders, fell behind Xiao Sheng, and went around to help him fasten it.Fair and steady fingers fluttered, paired with a black shawl and a decorative bow tie, which was extravagant and luxurious.

"Take care of yourself," he said softly.

"Yeah." Xiao Sheng smiled slightly.

The light in Martin's eyes flickered, and finally stepped forward with a stride: "Let's go."

---

This time, I was in a hurry on the road. For safety reasons, it was the fastest choice to hire a horse-drawn carriage to the post station in City Y, and then ride back to the city on horseback.

On the way, Martin and the others encountered several groups of patrolling soldiers.

"My lord, please bear with me." Soldiers have always been polite to the people in the carriage, after all, no one knows what kind of noble person is sitting in the carriage.

"What happened?" Martin's voice came through the pane.

"We don't know, it's an order from above."

After a moment of silence, the coachman handed over the passport.

After the soldier checked, he knocked on the window again: "Please show your face, my lord."

The pane opened, and a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes showed his face: "Is it all right?"

"It's...it's okay." The soldier froze for a moment.

Martin took out the accessories on his body and handed them out of the window, revealing the family crest engraved on it: "Call your chief."

When the guard saw something, his eyes changed: "I didn't expect it to be the Earl, please forgive me. I am the cavalry commander of this team."

"Is martial law in the city?"

"Martial law is not enough, it's just an order from the palace and government cabinet, let us strengthen daily patrols. ——Are you going back to the city, my lord?" The cavalry commander took two steps back on his horse and stretched out to the soldiers below. He closed his hand, "I will write a pass order for the adults, and the city defenses after that can pass quickly."

"Okay, thank you."

"Your Excellency, you are humble." The cavalry commander was very flattered to meet such a humble and polite upper-three nobleman for the first time.

After getting the passing order, things will be much easier in the future, without Martin showing up in person, the two of them quickly passed the two city defenses in one car, and arrived at the post station next to the Acropolis in the evening.

"It's late at night and the roads are dark. Your Excellency, you should go back to the city at dawn." The coachman sent the people back and was about to return, and reminded him again.

"Aren't you going to drive at night?" Martin asked back.

The coachman smiled honestly: "We rough people with thick skin and thick flesh, how can we compare with you, my lord. I heard from my relatives in the north that the Earl has reduced their tax for three years, and life is much easier. You are a A kind hearted man."

Martin smiled, but didn't answer.

The coachman left.

It was deserted outside the station, only the crickets were calling.The shadows of the trees in the dark night made people suddenly think of the man who was drenched in the rain on a rainy night.

Simple and thin, with wet hair sticking to his forehead, but persistent and tenacious, his eyes are like awns, revealing an inextinguishable light.It makes people happy and distressed.

Obviously, it hasn't been long since he left, but he has already begun to miss her.

Martin smiled and sighed, and walked towards the inn at the station.

The condition of the hotel here is not very good, the beds are a bit musty.

For just one night, Martin wasn't too picky, so he asked someone to put on a new bed and lay down to rest.

In the dream, I went back to the small village of Kasai. Yali was knitting, and there was heavy snow outside the window. The winter of that year was so cold. He was eight years old and had a long illness. After he recovered, he forgot all his past.

Marseille is where his memories begin and where his nightmares begin.

Everything about life and death is enlightened from there, and it has never been interrupted since then.

Twenty years have passed by in a hurry, people come and go, how many old people are left around now?

The world is like a flashy dream, and everything is just a passerby.

I am the only one who is drunk, and I am the only one who is awake.

---

It was dawn, and the investigation into the city began.

The soldiers stationed in the city saw Martin from a distance, and recognized the family crest exclusively for nobles.

When Martin Qingqi passed by, a row of guards bowed down: "Your Excellency is welcome to return to the city."

After entering the city, there is a carriage guarding the entrance of the city gate.

A servant led Martin over. Martin opened the curtain and saw the person sitting inside:

"You actually came in person."

Riel smiled, his lake-blue eyes were warm and noble: "Isn't it worth my coming in person just to pick you up?"

---

"Wake up...wake up, are you?" When Xiao Sheng went out to the yard, he saw Geeta carrying boxes in the corner of the warehouse.

When the boy saw him coming, he greeted him with a smile, although he was still stumbling.

"Good morning, Geeta, what are you doing?"

This answer was too difficult, and Geeta made a gesture directly: "Move, box, child, to, there, side."

"Let me help you." Xiao Sheng said.

He grasped the box very familiarly, carried it to the other side and put it away: "Is that so?"

Geeta smiled happily and nodded.

"What about your gentleman?"

Geeta pointed outside and made a gesture of ambulance.

"A doctor's visit?"

"Uh-huh!"

Xiao Sheng smiled, and continued to move the box. This time he saw a black brazier from behind the box, which looked a little abrupt behind a pile of boxes:

"what is this?"

There are some residues in the brazier, as if something has been burned.

Gita also came over to look at it, and he shook his head.

The warehouse worker will also come over, I don't know how the brazier appeared here.

Xiao Sheng took the pliers on the side and pulled it twice, and pulled out a few pieces of unburned paper from the fire.

A small piece of plastic.It's the urgent one.

This is………

The letter that sir received that day?

This thought flashed by, and Xiao Sheng's heart jumped up for no reason.

This beating didn't stop abruptly until he picked up another piece of paper and saw a few letters of inscription on it.

It's like being splashed with ice water in the coldest winter, and there is a kind of coldness and trembling from the soul.

The shallow inscription is a few small blue pen cursive words: Rhyl Wendy.

The author has something to say:

Xiao Sheng: You love me!

Martin: Baby.I swear! !It's definitely business! X﹏X
