Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 553
[Chapter 550 Joining this family]
With all kinds of doubts, Cheng Le’er was not very happy for most of the day.
She wanted to ask more questions, but she felt that it was useless to ask such questions. Normal people would not tell her their true thoughts directly, right?
According to this trend, it seems that it is easy to shoot a 100-episode melodrama.
David saw that Cheng Le’er was not in a good state, so after lunch, he took Cheng Le’er for a walk on the deck.
While looking at the vast sea, enjoying the sunshine and sea breeze, they chatted.
“If you have anything to ask, just ask it directly. Don’t you feel uncomfortable holding it in your heart?”
“…” Cheng Le’er looked at David, then looked at the sea, and finally took a few deep breaths. She mustered up the courage to look at David and asked the question she had been struggling with for a long time: “Are you and me serious or just want to have fun?”
David looked at Cheng Le’er who was staring at him with wide eyes. There was a bit of expectation and worry in her round eyes. That expression seemed as if she was about to cry in the next second.
“What do you mean by playing around? Do you mean I will suddenly disappear? Or what other situations?”
“You know!”
Cheng Le’er stared at David. Since she asked, she wanted a clear answer.
“In fact, it is you who makes the real decision, not me.”
“What do you mean?”
“If you are willing to stay with me forever, of course I am happy.”
Cheng Le’er was overjoyed when she heard this. Did David mean that he wanted to be with her for a long time, or even get married and live together?
Then she felt something was wrong. It sounded like there was another meaning.
“You… don’t you want me to be your lover?”
“If you want, the princess can also.”
“Ah?”
Cheng Le’er was still thinking about whether she should just slap him and leave? Or continue to maintain this relationship and strive to move her position and get a chance to become a regular.
In her opinion, David was asking her to be the younger one. As for who is the older one? Of course it is Sofia!
Before she made a decision, she suddenly heard something about the princess. At this time, she finally remembered the conversation between David and Sofia during breakfast.
Cheng Le’er was not a fool. At this moment, her IQ was online and she finally figured out the true meaning of David’s words.
Seeing that she was confused at first, and then a little bit of realization appeared on her face, David immediately revealed his identity: “Yes, I am actually a king, the real one.”
“…” Although she had guessed this answer, Cheng Le’er still felt that it sounded too outrageous: “Aren’t you British?”
“That’s just the identity I use when I go out.”
David first briefly introduced his and Sophia’s identities, and then introduced Winter City and Winter Kingdom.
As for the Brunnia continent, he has not yet introduced it in detail. When Cheng Le’er digests this information and asks for more details, he will slowly tell her.
Cheng Le’er did not interrupt David’s introduction. She waited until he finished, and then asked David: “The Winter Kingdom you mentioned, is it in Europe?”
“In Brunnia.”
“Where is that?”
“On a planet called Brunnia.”
Cheng Le’er laughed out loud when she heard this: “You don’t want to tell me that you are actually an alien, do you?”
“In a sense, it is true.”
The two of them turned around and happened to come to a corner of the second-floor deck. After David made sure that there was no one around, he slowly floated up under Cheng Le’er’s smiling gaze.
“…”
Using the power of holy light, one would be considered a monk or exorcist with some mysterious power, but floating in the air without any external objects is not something that humans can do.
Cheng Le’er originally thought that eight out of ten of David’s previous words were made up to amuse herself, and even the Winter Kingdom was made up by him.
But when she saw David flying like Superman, she began to recall those contents seriously, and the credibility of these seemingly outrageous words suddenly increased by dozens of percentage points.
Stunned, watching David land again, Cheng Le’er was shocked and didn’t know how to react for a while. There were too many questions she wanted to ask, and she didn’t know where to start. She
could only be stupidly led by David’s hand and continue to wander on the deck.
After walking around the Fugui Maru, she was slightly relieved. In addition to asking a few random questions, she finally had a clearer understanding of David’s situation.
David and Sofia are from Brunnia. David is the king of the Kingdom of Winter, and Sofia is the princess of the Kingdom of Yuandilan. The two were originally engaged.
The king and the princess, they seem to be a perfect match.
Cheng Le’er became Cheng Bu Le again. Although she understood that David was not just playing around with her and was willing to stay with her forever, it was very different from what she had originally imagined. She was not David’s only one, but just one of the concubines of His Majesty the King.
“So, Sophia didn’t mind me pursuing you from the beginning?”
“Yes!” More than not minding, she wanted to help you with advice in person: “Sophia likes you very much.”
“…” Cheng Le’er was not happy at all to be liked by someone who had always been regarded as a rival in love, but whose actual situation was worse: “Is the Kingdom of Winter polygamy?”
“The Kingdom of Winter has no regulations in this regard. In a sense, it is completely free to marry.” The Kingdom of Winter has only been developed for a few years, and it didn’t care about these trivial matters before.
Will relevant legal provisions be added in the future… Since His Majesty the King has opened such a precedent, it is estimated that this matter will only be handled relatively vaguely in the future.
At this time, Cheng Le’er had basically accepted the fact that David and Sofia were “aliens”, and asked David seriously: “If I am willing to be with you, do I have to live with you in Winter Castle?”
“It depends entirely on your personal opinion.”
“What do you mean? You don’t want me to go with you?” “
…”
Seeing Cheng Le’er’s eyes widened, David had to explain that the Kingdom of Winter had very advanced technology, and it was more convenient to come to Hong Kong from Brunnia than to fly from Europe. In the future, she could go to Winter Castle anytime she wanted, and she could go back to Hong Kong anytime she wanted.
“So convenient? Then can you take me to Winter Castle later?”
“Of course, by the way, pick a room you like in Winter Castle.”
Cheng Le’er pouted: “I didn’t say I agreed to be your concubine.”
“You’ve been eaten by me, do you think you can still run away?”
When the two said this, they just returned to their rooms, and Cheng Xiaoxi and Sofia heard this.
In the ears of Cheng Xiaoxi, a passerby, this sounded earthy and corny, but the person involved felt very happy.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s rustic or not, the key is who said it.
Cheng Le’er greeted Sofia and Cheng Xiaoxi with a smile, and she was not as hostile to Sofia as before.
She didn’t understand the situation before, but now that everything was clear, Cheng Le’er’s hostility towards Sofia naturally dissipated.
She also took the initiative to ask Sofia to talk alone. Of course, she didn’t prepare various new teas for Sofia to evaluate, but asked Sofia why she didn’t care about David and her affairs.
In addition, Cheng Le’er wanted to know how many people like her there were in Winter Castle?
She thought that Sofia, as a princess, was engaged to David, so she was naturally the oldest one, the Queen of Winter, but after asking, she found out that she was not.
Even Sofia was ranked very young in the “family”. She herself joined the family later, so naturally she would not reject more new people.
“…”
Cheng Le’er suddenly understood why Sofia was happy to see it happen and put on a welcoming look. Did she think that she had a younger “sister” than herself?
“I almost forgot something important. How many women does David have? Or princesses?”
“Oh, this! Let me count.” Cheng Le’er already knew the whole situation, so there was no need to hide this. She counted the names one by one with her fingers: “Laura, Eva, Helen, Gwen, they were all with David before me.” “
…”
“And Arcee and Elsa.” Sophia thought about it seriously. People like Sylvanas, Clarisse, Kara, and Hood are just good friends, but they don’t have any actual contact, so there’s no need to mention them.
When she heard a name, she cursed Cheng Le’er for being a playboy, and suddenly thought of something.
Obviously, the two of them were chatting alone in the room, but she still lowered her voice deliberately: “David… Can his body hold up with so many princesses?”
Although David acted very fierce yesterday, Cheng Le’er had also heard about the relationship between Niu and Tian, and wondered if David ran out to avoid the quiet?
Sophia laughed twice, making Cheng Le’er’s hair stand on end: “I’ll give you a piece of advice.”
“What?”
“Don’t wear stockings.”
Cheng Le’er was full of question marks. What does this mean? Then she thought that David didn’t like it.
But the answer was completely the opposite of what she thought.
“I’m afraid you can’t stand it, and you will cry and beg for mercy, or even ask Banana for help.”
“…”
Listening to this outrageous answer, and looking at Sophia’s serious nodding expression, Cheng Le’er began to suspect that David didn’t come to Earth to relax, but came here to choose a concubine.
Thinking of David’s ambiguous relationship with several beautiful girls: such as Wang Zhenzhen, and that Hu Huishan, the police inspector, Cheng Le’er felt that she had guessed the truth.
No matter what the facts are, she has fallen into the pit anyway. Cheng Le’er doesn’t even know how to choose, and of course she doesn’t want to implicate her best friend.
But when she took a golden apple from Sophia and learned the function of this golden apple and that Sophia had a lot of it, she began to struggle again: If you get good things, should you share them with your good friends?
