Chapter 1400: Really lost face abroad
Hope I set off quickly to cooperate with the female cleaner's Uncle Grandpa to eliminate the hidden dangers of the underground river...
After listening to the broken-in miss's relay, Leon couldn't help but frown subconsciously.
Being able to make the General Bureau urge him to set off, it seems that the North Kingdom indeed had a not-small problem, and according to the red-haired Bureau Chief's character, if it weren't really very necessary, she would directly block this request for him.
Since she chose to follow the General Bureau's instructions and sent Miss Lai La to find him, it proved that her view was the same as the General Bureau's, believing that he indeed had the necessity to set off as soon as possible, but...
After looking at Queen Veronica's direction, looking at the wrist gauze that belonged to the wedding dress on her arm that hadn't been completely removed, Leon's expression couldn't help but hesitate.
Although the wedding ceremony had ended, the banquet had just begun, and many processes were arranged later. If he left now, it was really a bit...
Seeming to feel Leon's hesitant gaze, when he was hesitating and looking over, Queen Veronica also happened to look over, and then saw the hesitation and wavering in Leon's eyes.
After being slightly startled, she apologized to the envoys of various countries, then reached out to lift the hem of her skirt, and walked quickly toward the corner where Leon was in the surprised gaze of the envoys.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at Leon's somewhat hesitant appearance, and then looking at the rather terrifying "human head" in the plate, Queen Veronica blinked, then realized somewhat:
"Is it the Cleaning Bureau? Leon, do you have 'work' again?"
"Mm..."
Leon nodded slightly.
"The situation in the North Kingdom has changed and needs to be handled as soon as possible."
When saying this, he paused slightly, looked at Queen Veronica's eyes full of regret, and gritted his teeth:
"Veronica, I'm sorry, I'm afraid..."
"Go."
After interrupting Leon's apology, Queen Veronica smiled softly. Although the regret in her beautiful eyes couldn't be concealed, she still reached out to help Leon straighten his tie and comforted him gently:
"Don't feel guilty. I don't understand the things of the Cleaning Bureau, but I understand you.
You would speak at such a time, proving that the choice you want to make must be correct, and also very urgent. Since it is a correct thing, then go do it, but you must pay attention to safety, and don't forget that someone is still waiting for you."
"I will..."
Seeing Queen Veronica express understanding, Leon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then said with shame:
"Veronica, if I could..."
"Alright, don't say such things."
Queen Veronica shook her head, then raised her white left hand, shook the ring on her ring finger in front of Leon, and said sweetly:
"It's just missing some ceremonies. I have already obtained what I want most. Compared with it, the rest are irrelevant. It doesn't matter if there are fewer processes... But there is one thing you have to promise me."
"Ah? What thing?"
Facing Leon's puzzled inquiry, Queen Veronica didn't answer immediately, but turned her head slightly, glanced at the female cleaner in the distance who was full of hesitation and seemed to want to come over but didn't dare, then turned her head back, staring at Leon and asking with a smile:
"She is also going with you this time, right?"
She... Melly?
Following Queen Veronica's gaze, looking at the female cleaner's direction, Leon reacted as if waking from a dream, then said speechlessly:
"You don't think that she and I have something, do you?" "If I really thought you and her had something, then it wouldn't be this attitude!"
After couldn't help but reach out and twist Leon, Queen Veronica rolled her eyes at him with annoyance:
"Just before the wedding started, when she ran to the backstage to find you, it really gave me a fright! Do you know how worried I was then?"
"Uh..."
After pondering a little, Leon also reacted. This matter seemed to be indeed a bit of his fault, and he couldn't help but scratch his head awkwardly, explaining in a hurry:
"This matter is not what you think. When Melly... went to find me, she didn't want to stay long, just wanted to ask about the North. Later, I was curious about the bloodline of the Twelve Royal Families, so I chatted with her a few more words. There is nothing between us."
"I know!"
After glaring at Leon with a hint of annoyance, Queen Veronica looked at the female cleaner in the distance again, and then said with one part jealousy and nine parts amusement:
"Before I saw her with my own eyes, I was indeed very worried, fearing whether she had any ideas about you and was preparing to destroy our wedding. But after the ceremony started, I specially took another look at her, and after that, I wasn't worried anymore."
You weren't worried after looking at her?
Leon was slightly startled upon hearing this, then immediately understood the meaning in Veronica's words.
What Veronica said shouldn't be the problem of the female cleaner being too sad, but her overly unique pure temperament... or to explain it more directly, it was the overly clear "stupidity" like a child.
Although the female cleaner wasn't stupid, perhaps because she was brought up by the Water Bottle Bureau Chief, the people and things she contacted were very "unique", so in terms of heart, she was afraid that even Melany could throw her ten streets away.
"In short, her mind is too pure, and she shouldn't have that kind of idea about you."
Looking at Leon's stiff expression, Queen Veronica couldn't help but giggle, then explained with amusement:
"Do you know? When I walked through the corridor, besides looking at me at the very beginning, she spent the rest of the time secretly moving to the edge of the guest area.
When we were exchanging rings later, she took advantage of no one's attention and actually went to the side corridor next to the guest area, wanting to steal the cakes placed inside.
But that side corridor is a memorial area, and the cakes inside are all imitation decorations. She took a bite and found she couldn't bite it, and then stomped her feet in anger beside the table..."
"..."
Mom... you're really losing face...
Hearing the scene described by Veronica, Leon, who had his eyes full of Veronica and didn't have the heart to look at the audience, couldn't help but cover his face, feeling embarrassed for the female cleaner from the bottom of his heart.
And after telling what she saw, looking at Leon whose face was red from embarrassment, Queen Veronica couldn't help but laugh and conclude:
"That Princess Melisandre is the same age as you, but the feeling she gives people is still a 'child', and she is especially greedy. The number of times she looked at the cake before was at least five or six times more than looking at you. After discovering this, I knew I was overthinking."
"Yes, yes, that's exactly what happened."
Leon breathed a sigh of relief again, then added with a relaxed face:
"I was also because of this, so I didn't think much... um... it's really great that you can think it through."
"Phew!"
Hearing Leon's words, Queen Veronica couldn't help but spit at him, then reached out and twisted his side ribs, saying with annoyance:
"I can think it through, but it doesn't mean I won't be angry!
This is our wedding, the most important day of my life! Even if she definitely doesn't have that intention, you actually dared to feed another woman food at our wedding! How do you plan to explain this?"
