Chapter 1046

~7 min read 1,213 words

"Li... Li Ang senior..."

After being arched out of the window by the golden retriever, Laien, who had once again successfully broken into a critical moment, lowered her head and whispered:

"I... actually I didn't see anything..."

"..."

"Or... or I saw a little bit..."

Facing Li Ang's extremely speechless expression, the lady who broke in seemed to have reacted that her "lie" was a bit too much, and hurriedly continued to add:

"But my mouth is very tight, I will definitely not talk about your stea... stea... your business everywhere!"

"..."

Although, according to my understanding of you, things you've broken into seem to have been talked about? In addition, what do you mean by what you didn't say? What are we stealing?

"Miss Laien!"

Unlike Li Ang, who had thousands of troops stuck in his throat, as a fairly experienced politician, Princess Veronica had initially suppressed her shyness and regained a part of her reason.

And after capturing the meaning left unsaid in the lady's words, the princess, who had already learned her name, couldn't help but frown, and reminded her with a slightly unkind tone:

"Don't you usually read the newspapers? Li Ang and I are fiancés, not the kind of relationship you think, so please pay a little attention to your words!"

"Ah?"

Upon hearing the princess's slightly dissatisfied response, the lady who broke in seemed to be startled, then first looked at Li Ang in surprise, then lowered her head and apologized timidly:

"I... I don't have much money in my hand, so I rarely buy newspapers, sorry, I... I said the wrong thing again..."

No, you didn't say the wrong thing; in a sense, you said it very well!

Noticing where her eyes landed, Princess Veronica's eyebrows couldn't help but lift slightly, then she squinted at Li Ang.

This Miss Laien, who came to find Li Ang in the middle of the night, is the kind of person whose thoughts are particularly easy to guess. After hearing that she and Li Ang had a marriage contract, her first reaction was to look at Li Ang in surprise.

Considering that after she broke into her and Li Ang's... private meeting, she subconsciously judged that this was an "adultery," then does this mean that in her subconscious, Li Ang actually "belongs" to another woman?

"Laien."

Not knowing the speculation in Princess Veronica's mind, looking at the lady who broke in and was uneasy in front of him, Li Ang couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, then took the initiative to ask:

"It's already so late, why are you bringing... uh..."

"Woof woof!"

"Oh, Miss Lisa."

Under the reminder of the young dog, after remembering the name of the big golden retriever, Li Ang nodded to the golden retriever who was looking at the princess with interest, then asked again:

"Laien, why did you suddenly come over with Miss Lisa? Did something happen in the bureau that requires me to go back immediately?"

"Ah! Yes!"

Upon hearing Li Ang's inquiry, the lady who broke in finally reacted, then hurriedly relayed:

"Li Ang senior, Director Olivia asked me to find you, hoping you can go back as soon as possible. The three branch managers sent to replace her have arrived."

Three branch managers who are not from the Zodiac branch? Only three?

After hearing the news relayed by the lady who broke in, Li Ang's expression couldn't help but become slightly solemn, and he immediately understood that it was estimated that "something" was coming again.

Nothing else, since the three branch managers responsible for guarding the kingdom have arrived, then as the strongest combat power of the Virgin Branch, the director should still go to the General Bureau according to the original plan to guard against the attack of the Aquarius Director.

But according to the news "broken" by Laien, the target of the Aquarius Director's attack is actually the Virgin Branch, and the director has already notified the directors of this news, but the directors not only did not let the director stay, but also did not send extra manpower, still only sent three branch managers.

Then this matter is very worth discussing.

After all, even if the directors don't believe the information Laien got, or feel that this might be a smoke bomb released by Aquarius and decide not to adopt it, it's fine to do some extra precautions.

Even if they are really in urgent need of their own director's combat power support and must transfer her to the General Bureau for "co-defense," they can at least send a few more branch managers to support. It's impossible for the bureau not to be able to squeeze out this manpower.

But the directors didn't send extra manpower, but still maintained the original arrangement, only sent three branch managers to support, then this probably only has one reason to explain...

The General Bureau is probably trying to "fish"!

After speculating based on the existing information and judging that it is very likely that the directors want to set a trap, Li Ang immediately "switched" to work mode, nodded with glowing eyes:

"Alright, I'll go back now!"

After saying this, he took a step forward subconsciously, wanting to return to the bureau immediately through the mirror world, but then he seemed to remember something, turned his head to look at the princess behind him.

"Veronica, can you help me with..."

"Go ahead with peace of mind."

After looking at Li Ang's suddenly "spirited" eyes and the state of his whole person instantly tightening, Princess Veronica was silent for a moment, then promised softly with a calm expression:

"If you haven't come back tomorrow, I will explain to Anna. In addition, although I don't know what you are going to face, if by any chance... I mean by any chance, if you really can't come back, then they are my younger brother and sister."

Good guy... This has already planted a flag in advance...

After looking at those soft and firm eyes, even without touching the black goat's horns, Li Ang instinctively understood that what Veronica said must be the truth, and couldn't help but nod with slight gratitude.

Although these words sounded a bit unlucky, facing the Aquarius Director with all kinds of strange means, he really didn't have the confidence to retreat completely. This promise that sounded a bit unlucky was exactly what he needed most at the moment.

"Thank you..."

"No need to thank."

Princess Veronica blinked and said:

"If you are fine, remember to come back and marry me. In addition, no matter whether you can come back or not, on the third of next month, I will hold the wedding as scheduled."

"..."

Damn... You're going to get married back to your hometown after this battle, aren't you? This is even more unlucky...

Facing the princess who was stabbing flags into him one by one, Li Ang's mouth couldn't help but twitch, then said with difficulty:

"About this matter..."

"About a devoted woman who is willing to be a widow for you for a lifetime, and promises to take care of your younger brother and sister for a lifetime regardless of whether you can come back, do you have anything else to say?"

"..."

"Hmm?"

"..."
