Langdon was dubious: "Really?"

...It doesn't seem to fit what Cyrunita said.

However, before Langdon could think deeply, Helena and Flora with a pale face appeared in front of him.

"Finally finished talking?" Helena frowned slightly, "I saw her pass out, what did you talk to her about?"

11. If you don’t want Landon, I will (3k)

Langdon glanced first at Flora.

Flora's delicate and lovely face looked a little tired at the moment. After meeting Langdon's eyes, she forced herself to smile as if she was afraid that he would be worried. Unfortunately, the smile seemed a little weak.

Langdon: "..."

It seems that dealing with Helena is really hard... Next time he should change the reason, he can't keep pushing it to Flora.

In fact, Langdon completely misunderstood the reason for Flora's forced smile.

Helena seldom has the same high-pressure output as when facing Langdon to outsiders. It is not a problem to simply help Langdon panic and divert Helena's attention.

But Flora's situation was different.

Flora has been sorry to Langdon before, even though Langdon doesn't mind anymore, Helena is still struggling, as long as this matter is mentioned a little bit, Flora will feel very uncomfortable, but she still has to worry about not being able to give Helena a bad heart. Lian Na increased the pressure, holding back and unable to refute, "Where are you going?" As a result, she was physically and mentally exhausted.

This can be regarded as feedback from evil forces. Flora couldn't even say that she was wronged, she could only bear it silently, and she didn't even dare to mention it to Langdon.

When Langdon, who didn't know the inside story, thanked Flora with his eyes for helping him share the pressure, Bridget had already taken the lead in answering Helena's question instead of Langdon.

With a bright smile, Bridget replied nonchalantly.

"It has nothing to do with the Duke. Miss Melotti is not in good health, and she would faint when she chatted with me before—Miss Helena and Miss Melotti are classmates, so you should know it? They also chatted just now. Pass?"

Her natural and accustomed attitude successfully affected the tense atmosphere at the moment.

Helena's brows widened: "I'm just a little worried. Langdon just went over to say a few words to someone, and he passed out. He might be overthought..."

Flora quietly kicked her legs under the hem of the skirt in dissatisfaction, and whispered: "Only you can think too much."

Who is Langdon? God has been painstakingly determined for a long time, and words of this level can no longer shake his heart, so he just said flatly: "What I told her was originally intended to be told to you, but Now is not the time, wait until later.”

Helena froze for a moment, her eyes showed a look of surprise.

It has been a long time since Langdon offered to chat with her privately...

But soon, she realized something.

Is there any topic that Langdon could both discuss with Cyrunita and want to talk to her?

Let's say Langdon is marrying Cyrunita, or...

Considering the spiritual blood magic awakened by Sirunita, other speculations arose in Helena's mind.

No matter what it is, it is not what Helena wants to hear. The uncontrollable sense of irritability hits her heart again, but Helena knows that once she shows any tendency to not be calm, Flora will It would have been all the more reason to claim that she was ill and have Langdon lock her up for "rest".

In order not to let Flora succeed, Helena forced herself to endure this anxious emotion.

Although Langdon was deceived by Flora, it was for her benefit that he sought the therapist. She couldn't be angry with Langdon... Sigh, it was because of this that she felt that Langdon couldn't do it alone, so what should he do if he was so easily deceived? ah?

So Langdon obviously needs her help, doesn't he?

Without expressing what was in her heart, Helena replied calmly: "Then tell me when you get back, I will wait for you."

Langdon now has very low demands on Helena, as long as she doesn't go crazy casually - but he didn't think there was anything to go crazy about such a normal topic, so he didn't expect that he had actually walked on a high-voltage line. He could still breathe a sigh of relief, and then said "I have something to discuss with Marquis xx" before leaving in peace.

Bridget blinked, saluted Helena and Flora, and hurried away with Langdon.

"...Is it really okay to let Langdon go alone..." Helena still couldn't help muttering.

Flora, who was alone with Helena again, felt her heart ache, but she still had to stop Helena from following Langdon, so she could only take a deep breath, grind her teeth, and said angrily, "He hasn't been here for so long. There have been problems, which means that he can do without you, and your worries are unnecessary—”

Halfway through the conversation, Flora suddenly realized what the occasion was. If something happened to Helena, it would be Langdon who would be ashamed, so he could change his mind.

"Anyway, it's useless for you to go. No matter how powerful you are, you can't replace him with those marquises and earls. They are all inexperienced."

There was nothing wrong with what he said, and Helena couldn't refute it.

As a woman, all she could do were those things that could be arranged in the study. At most, she would hold a tea party with the ladies and conduct some diplomacy between wives and daughters. She couldn't do the communication. In the past, the director of palace affairs always conveyed her needs.

Helena's worry about Langdon seemed superfluous at this time, because she couldn't do better.

"By the way, it's rare to attend a banquet. Don't keep staring at Langdon. Aren't you going to relax and enjoy the atmosphere of the banquet?" Flora tried to divert Helena's attention, "Look, the other girls We're all looking forward to the dance, you..."

"They were looking for a future husband, I don't care about that."

Helena's face was as cold as ice: "I will dedicate my whole life to the Stuart family. I don't need to learn how to be a good wife and mother... But you, when I was young, I liked playing house, and I plan to marry Have you given birth to a child? There are several young people over there who have been watching you, and maybe they will come to invite you to dance in a while, so you can consider choosing one of them."

"...Forget it, I'm not interested in this kind of person."

Flora has long been immune to those noble youths.

Ever since she became a saint, this kind of people has been coming in an endless stream. She didn't understand it at first, and really thought that these people adored her, but when she grew up, she understood it very well.

Those people only pursued her because of her status as a saint, not to mention love, even liking was very shallow.

Thinking of these people, Flora even felt uneasy.

She wanted very much to bring over those people who had made sarcastic remarks about her when she was a child, and let them change the words that described her back then, and make a good evaluation of these noble youths.

See clearly!These talents are snobbish eyes who can start pursuing because of one identity! ! !

She had true love for Langdon!

Even if Langdon was just a commoner, she would still like Langdon!Because what attracted her to Langdon was never his identity background, but his heart.

Even Flora felt that if he was a commoner, maybe Langdon would be more relaxed and happier...

Langdon never changed his attitude towards the change of her status. Even after she became a saint, her first reaction was to worry about whether she would be very hard.

Even if it wasn't the "love" she wanted, it was just the brother's care for his sister, but Flora, who had been fed by such sincere feelings, would not be swayed by inferior and fake products.

And these people, who have never met before, can write love letters to her to express their admiration for her.

Especially when she returned the things to Langdon and was ridiculed in the circle of noble daughters in the imperial capital, the noble youths who had been silent before suddenly appeared and tried to express to her through various means that they didn't mind. For her, they can also send...

What is this!Is it more popular after the character is corrupted?Do you think she is stupid for this way of taking advantage of the situation?

Flora was muttering, when she suddenly heard Helena asking quietly.

"And who do you want to dance with? Langdon?"

"Who, who wants to be with Langdon..." Flora retorted subconsciously, then suddenly came to her senses, and immediately changed her words, and even said with a confident attitude, "Yes, I just want to dance with Langdon, I even want to marry Langdon! Can't you? Haven't you thought about it?"

she?

"...It's unnecessary."

"Whoever asks you if it's necessary, just ask if you want it." Flora noticed something, and couldn't help but be reluctant.

Helena's icy blue eyes avoided Flora's probing gaze: "No, I'm here to protect Langdon, not to do such boring things..."

"That's good." Flora said lightly, with a bit of deliberation, "I wanted to dance with Langdon, but I was worried that this time his female partner would be you. I don’t want to dance anymore, now I can rest assured.”

Hahaha, Helena is stupid, why is her mouth so stubborn at this time... And she is more stubborn than she used to be.

She has already changed anyway, so Helena will continue to be stubborn.

While Flora and Helena confront each other, Langdon enjoys the conversation.

It’s not about talking about business. Anyway, as Langdon, most of the time, small talk is enough to maintain the relationship. If you really want to negotiate or something, it’s the turn of the people below to do it. What Langdon can do is to leave someone good impression.

After half a circle around the venue, Langdon was stopped by the fourth prince who had little contact with him before to toast.

"Long time no see, Duke Stuart, thanks to your care, my sister ran to your Principality without permission. I was really shocked when I heard... Didn't cause you any trouble?"

Langdon didn't take it seriously at first, so he greeted normally, and then received an invitation from the fourth prince to race horses together, saying that Langdon could come whenever he wanted.

After exchanging pleasantries with a few more people, the second prince also came over to talk to Langdon. The beginning was similar: "Bella didn't cause you any trouble, did she? You really took her heart away, and the emperor asked her if she had any favorites?" Marriage partner, she said you..."

After the third prince started chatting with Langdon using Bellatrix, Langdon finally came to his senses.

...What's the situation, has he suddenly become a favorite, and has been wooed by a group of princes?

[ps: Add more, still owe 2 more tweets~]

12. What strange entertainment (3k)

Langdon can't be blamed for his slow reaction. After all, he is still a Grand Duke with his own duchy. Even if he looks too young and unreliable, he still has the power and status he should have, and if he has these, he will definitely be handed over. good.

And most of the time, the difference between making friends and wooing is not very big, because everyone needs face, and when there is no urgent need, wooing is more subtle...

But Langdon was exposed by the play of Bellatrix, knowing that these princes have not been very peaceful recently, and watching these performances, so the reaction is quite fast. entertainment.

And it was probably because he found that he likes to leave early at banquets, and people who don't usually see him, worried that he would run away for a while and there would be no chance in the near future, so these princes also took the time.

Langdon can see a prince every once in a while, which is more obvious than other nobles who like to soak in banquets.

Smiling and socializing with the third prince, Langdon focused on analyzing the current situation.

Those who like to intervene in the royal succession are basically profitable, and Langdon's "delusion of persecution" is well-known, and these princes will know that he doesn't like such dangerous and troublesome things.

If you want to ensure that he is neutral because he is the Duke of real power, this enthusiasm is a little bit too much.

And what they talk about...

Even if there are other topics to cover up, you can still hear which one you are most interested in.

"...I saw Her Majesty the Holy Maiden looking over here, am I disturbing you? Is the Duke going to dance with the Holy Maiden later? Then my sister may be sad, but she keeps talking about you all day Yes, although a little unreserved, but the elves are so straightforward... By the way, I heard that the blood queen gave you a birthday present? When have you seen the blood queen?"

——Why do these people care so much about his emotional problems? !

After extracting this core, Langdon finally quickly understood the status quo.

He was in the blind spot before.

Although he always felt that he was a salted fish who only wanted to survive the demon invasion instance, but in the eyes of others, he might not be as low-key as he imagined.

The mainland's only saint, divine vessel, and strongest fortune teller is his childhood sweetheart. He bleeds in various senses at his banquet, and the entire imperial capital knows about his previous troubles. Recently, I saw them and Well, it gradually stopped.

The most gifted princess of the August Empire, and an ancestral elf mage, "falls in love" with him because of his "hero saving the beauty". The level of faux pas—never mind the truth, that's how outsiders see it.

As the king of the long-lived race, the blood queen sent people from his clan to give him gifts at his birthday party under the watchful eyes of everyone. Although he said he didn't know him, it doesn't matter if his credibility is doubtful to others who don't know his family's situation. Why do people give you gifts?Enough support?

He himself is still the Grand Duke of the principality, the kind with territory and army.

Just looking at it this way, if the prince wants to compete for the throne, even if he knows that this is a salty fish, he can't help but win him over.

Because if you win over one, you might be able to tie the others to your warship in one breath, which seems to be very cost-effective...

And the outside world seems to think that he will marry Flora or Bellatrix.

But it doesn't mention that Bellatris doesn't have that kind of affection for him at all, and Flora just treats him as an elder brother. Even if he is, these people never thought that if he chooses someone to marry, maybe he will be married Is a pull black! ?

Langdon was speechless.

It didn't take long for Langdon to realize that he was being too naive, a question that had certainly been considered.

After the third prince left, a person who seemed to have nothing to do with these princes actually started to communicate with him on how to serve water, and even used the tone of someone who had experienced it to advise him not to get married too early...

"Hey, Duke, you don't need anything, you don't need to get married at all, so just choose the person you like. There is really no need to worry about this kind of thing. I see that many people worry more after getting married... It's okay to say I'm not afraid of your jokes, my son's hair fell out very badly after he got married..."

Langdon: "..."

Which prince arranged this person! ?What are you hinting at him again, what are you expecting from him? !

Does he look that much like a scumbag?Clearly clarified?

After Langdon's tactful probing, the unknown staff member said with a smile.

"Of course I have read the clarification in the newspaper. Your kindness should not be given to those cheap... civilians. They are not worth it, and they will only be greedy."

After a discriminatory speech, he finally gave the answer Langdon wanted to know.

"But I didn't expect you, the Duke, to have such an emotional view... well, I'm sorry, because you really look like the type who will be unfavorable among women."

Langdon understood what the guy meant.

He has a scumbag face, looking at him, I think he is romantic and affectionate, and he is very good at attracting bees and butterflies.
