Chapter 371

"I've already been very sincere."

After wiping the onion juice from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, Princess Veronika blinked her red eyes and looked directly at Li Ang, saying honestly:

"If I really wanted to use those words just now to force you to agree to marry me, then I wouldn't have said those words in front of you, but would have found a way to arrange some 'coincidences' so that you would discover all of this yourself.

Whether it was letting you know about my father's arrangements for me from others, or letting you encounter Watching Watching Qiaoshuya a few more times, and then contacting the Minister of Finance and the Wang Hou, you would have discovered all of this yourself, and wouldn't even know what I had done in the process.

The reason I didn't do that, but instead tried to say these things as easily as possible, was out of respect for you and to show you my sincerity."

"..."

It seems... there's some truth to that?

And while Li Ang was frowning and thinking, Princess Veronika put the onion slice in her hand on the table and said with a gloomy expression:

"Li Ang, every word I said just now was actually true. If it weren't for you, I would likely be married off far away after Watching Watching Qiaoshuya comes of age, and spend my life with a man I don't love.

After I leave, most of these reforms that were finally pushed forward, except for those that can maintain the rule of the royal family, will be suspended, and the entire kingdom will return to that stagnant, dead-water appearance.

The reason I made such a judgment is not because I am arrogant, arrogant enough to think that only I can change all of this, but because I know my father and brother too well, and I understand too well what kind of people they are.

For my father, the rule of the royal family is greater than everything. What is truly important is not the entire kingdom, but who controls the kingdom. And Watching Watching Qiaoshuya was deeply influenced by him and was raised by the Wang Hou to have an arrogant personality. I don't think he can become a qualified king."

"..."

Indeed... Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's brain and personality are indeed not the material for a king...

"So, I hope you can consider it again."

Looking at the silent Li Ang, Princess Veronika, while guessing his plans, held Li Ang's hand in reverse and requested with a look of sincerity:

"I know it's very unfair to you, but the marriage between you and me is truly the last opportunity for me, and even for this country.

Although it seems a bit alarmist, I truly believe that if you miss this, whether it's my life or the future of this country, everything, everything will inevitably slide toward the abyss. I... I really have no other way.

Li Ang... just take it as me begging you, don't push me away like this, okay?"

"..."

"I won't force you. If you want to refuse but can't say it, then we can change the way."

After tightening the coat on her body, the Princess, with a slightly red face, sat across Li Ang, reached out to hug his back, then buried her face in Li Ang's shoulder and whispered in his ear:

"No matter what, the final decision is left to you.

Li Ang, if you still want to refuse, then harden your heart and push me away. If you can't bear to see me marry someone else, or haven't decided whether to refuse, then keep the current posture and don't push me out of your arms."

"If you don't speak, then I'll take it as you agreeing to this method. I'm going to start counting down... 5!"

"..."

So... should I push her away?

"4!"

"..."

"3!"

"..."

"2!"

"..."

Hearing the countdown approaching, Li Ang instinctively raised his hand, grabbed Princess Veronika's shoulder, and subconsciously pushed her out slightly. But at this moment, the hands behind his back locked tightly, holding each other with the greatest strength, the slender knuckles turning white.

After feeling this strength, worried that pushing hard would cause her pain, Li Ang's action of pushing her away paused slightly, and the Princess's final countdown also entered Li Ang's ears full of joy.

"1!"

"Not pushing away means agreeing. You can't go back on what you've already agreed to!"

"..."

Although... I don't know why, it seems like I've been locked in by someone...

"Let's go, time to rest."

After rolling off Li Ang, who was a bit hesitant, the Princess glanced at him shyly, then used a bit of strength in her palm to pull Li Ang up from the chair, her soft, delicate, and slightly cold index finger drawing an itchy circle in his palm.

"Do you want to go inside?"

Hiss...

Can't go in! This really can't go in! Looking at the situation, if I go into the room today, I'll probably be eaten clean immediately, and there will be no room for regret. It's not impossible that I'll have a child by next year!

"That... I won't go in for now."

After hurriedly pulling back his palm, Li Ang turned his gaze away and coughed:

"I still... hmm... have some things to think about. I'll sleep on the sofa today!"

"Is that good?"

After secretly breathing a sigh of relief in her heart, Princess Veronika nodded lightly, then blinked and smiled:

"If Anna gets up in the middle of the night and sees you sleeping on the sofa, she will definitely have an opinion about me, this sister-in-law. Why don't you still come in..."

"That's enough!"

Looking at the Princess, who clearly wasn't prepared either but kept teasing him, Li Ang took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes, and warned:

"If you keep acting, you'll have to bear the consequences!"

Hmm?

The little man I easily held in my hand actually wants to prick me?

After hearing Li Ang's warning, the Princess's carefully groomed eyebrows couldn't help but raise, then she puffed out her full chest as a demonstration and asked back with a smile:

"Really? I don't know what you mean by 'bear the consequences.' Can you let me see it properly?"

You asked for this!

Li Ang narrowed his eyes at her words, then, amidst the Princess's exclamation, directly carried her on his shoulder and entered the room. Not long after, a burst of panicked begging came from the room.

"Wait! Are you for real?"

"No, no, no! Aren't we a bit... a bit too fast?"

"Oh my! Let's stop here! Let's just stop here! Let me... let me prepare a bit more!"

"Good Li Ang, I was wrong, I was really wrong! No, no, no! Don't! No! Mmm..."

Next, everything happened naturally. Ten months later, married after getting pregnant, harmonious, loving couple, having two children in three years, three in five years, seven years...

"No, no, no! That's enough! That's really enough! We really can't have any more children!"

After looking at the twenty-something children who were divided into boys' and girls' teams and were playing football on the lawn of the palace, and then looking at the husband who was as handsome as that night, only with a beard on his lips and clearly much more mature.

Wang Hou Veronika, who had been on the throne for many years, hurriedly tightened her nightgown, closed the collar that had been pulled open, reached out to press against the chest of the adult version of Li Ang, and begged bitterly:

"I've been Wang Hou for so many years, and as a result, I've been pregnant for nine out of ten years. You should at least let me rest for a few months! No, no, no! It's really not possible anymore! You... hmm? Why is your chest muscle so soft?"

"Oh my!"

Just as Wang Hou Veronika was puzzled and grabbed her husband's soft chest muscle and pinched it hard, the mature version of Li Ang suddenly blushed and screamed like a young girl.

"Sister Veronika! You... don't touch me randomly! Wake up quickly!"

Sister Veronika? Wake up quickly?

After hearing these words, the Princess, who had reacted, hurriedly blinked hard. The husband with soft chest muscles in front of her shook slightly and turned into Anna, who was shyly covering her chest.

And the large bed that Li Ang had specially ordered that she was lying on also turned into the small sofa in Li Ang's apartment. She was wrapped in a quilt, lying on the sofa with bleary eyes...

So it was just a dream!

"Sorry..."

After shaking her head hard to throw that dream, which had always been in the restricted category, out of her mind, the Princess, who was disheveled from sleep, calmed down for a while, then threw off the quilt she was wrapped in, sat up with a peaceful expression, smiled at Anna, and asked with a reserved manner:

"Just had a bit of a strange dream... Anna, what time is it now?"

"It's already nine o'clock. Breakfast is on the table. Also... that... you... you..."

After covering her chest and taking half a step back, Anna's eyes were slightly evasive, but she couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked:

"Are you really planning to... planning to have two football teams?"
