I’m not avoiding your gaze... I’m just unsure where to look...
Faced with Veronica’s aggressive advances, the weary Leon had no choice but to lift his head and remind her sternly:
"Dignity! Your Highness! Maintain dignity!"
Ha, what good is dignity? If I keep up this pretentiousness now, I might end up sleeping alone for the rest of my life!
"Leon~"
Ignoring Leon’s reminder, Princess Veronica pressed her weight against him even more, her face slightly flushed as she whispered:
"Haven’t you noticed? It’s really cold in here now~"
Cold my foot! It’s warm here!
After glancing at the roaring fireplace, Leon, feeling speechless, noticed the arms around his waist were getting tighter and had no choice but to pull back with a sullen face:
"It must be the wind. I’ll close the window... let go of first."
"No~ I’m cold~"
"If you’re cold, let go and let close the window!"
"But if I let go, I’ll be cold~"
"If you’re cold, loosen your grip and let close the window!"
"But if you go close the window, I’ll be cold~"
"..."
I’m wasting my breath talking to you...
Seeing that this argunt seed to be endless, Leon simply lifted Princess Veronica horizontally, and amidst her little surprised cry, he reached back and shut the window, then urged:
"It’s no longer cold, let go quickly!"
"No way."
Her arms wrapped around his neck, Princess Veronica pouted:
"Although my body isn’t cold anymore, my heart is starting to feel cold~"
"..."
I think you need to cool down a bit...
Faced with the princess who couldn’t be described as clingy, Leon, numb in every sense, could only try to persuade:
"I don’t... want to cancel the wedding, it’s just that it feels too rushed, we should... uh... first seek an emotional closeness, then..."
"Now you’re talking~"
Princess Veronica blinked upon hearing this, tugging at his neck as she burrowed her upper body into his arms, then said:
"Our hearts are really close now, no one can be closer than us."
Feeling a bit flustered by the inappropriate level of closeness, Leon quickly leaned his head back.
"No, that’s not what I ant by heart."
"No problem! Whatever heart it is, it can be close!"
"..."
...
Give it up! There’s no way I’ll let go, absolutely no way! You ca today, so don’t expect to leave whole! Either leave the promise of marrying next month or just leave yourself!
The arms wrapped around Leon’s neck tightened once more, as a resolute glint flashed in Princess Veronica’s eyes.
In life, it seems there are many opportunities, but those truly important ones affecting an entire life, appear only once or twice. If you seize them, you’ve seized them; if you miss them, they’re gone forever!
Having a man who aligns with her ideals, supports her career, and ets all her criteria, she must hold on tightly. If she lets this opportunity slip, he’d end up in another woman’s embrace...
No! Absolutely no chance of that happening!
No! This is really going south!
Reading a determined resolve from Princess Veronica’s glistening eyes, Leon felt his scalp tingle and decided to bail respectfully, pushing her shoulder gently:
"Well... it’s really late now, I need to go out tomorrow, so..."
"So don’t bother rushing back, just stay here, and I’ll send soone to take you back early tomorrow."
As Leon wore a surprised expression, the increasingly flushed princess lowered her head, resting her heated cheeks on his shoulder, inviting in a mosquito-like voice:
"My bed is big, and definitely fits two people."
"?!"
Hiss... can’t stay! Absolutely can’t stay! Regardless of what might happen, if I dare stay here tonight, I’m bound to be tightly bound by her!
Involuntarily drawing a sharp breath, feeling like a "predator" had fixed its gaze on him, Leon shook his head frantically in refusal:
"Uh, that doesn’t seem right, does it?"
"What’s not right? We’re legally engaged, what’s wrong with sleeping in the sa bed?"
"Well, bed aside... I really have to go now, how about you first let go?"
"Nope!"
The beauty snake entangling her prey wrapped tighter, her lips unintentionally pressing into bite marks while she silently leaned towards Leon’s ear, whispering with scented breath:
"If you insist on going back now, then take with you~"
"..."
Did sothing happen to you?
Faced with a princess who was ahead of herself and wouldn’t stop until she succeeded, Leon, tied up without options, could only threaten:
"If you insist on not letting go, I really will carry you back!"
"Hmm..."
"Think carefully, it’s night but there might be people on the streets..."
"I don’t care if there are people!"
Hiss... I real don’t believe this!
With a sweet iris fragrance surrounding him, Leon felt the body in his arms warming up significantly, even trembling slightly. He took a deep breath and truly turned towards the window, carrying her.
Based on his understanding of Veronica, though she appeared "fearless," she wasn’t truly straightforward. Her consistent advances were managed through strong self-control, suppressing her inner shyness.
But being carried brazenly through town and discovered by Anna the next day was an unbearable sha for her, so as long as he displayed determination, she would definitely retreat!
Sure enough, when Leon turned towards the window, the embarrassed princess, even with arms blushing, suddenly released his neck and began struggling.
"Leon... you... put down!"
Ha, where’s your courage? This is it?
Confronting Veronica’s retreat, Leon, finally gaining the upper hand, couldn’t help but tighten his hold while teasing:
"What’s the matter? Weren’t you going back with ? Why suddenly change your mind?"
"No... no!"
"No what?"
The rare chance for payback, Leon wouldn’t miss out, rapidly escalating his words:
"Weren’t you unafraid of being seen? Hmm?"
"You... you... oh my!"
Surprised by the swift retribution, Princess Veronica clenched her fists, lay in Leon’s arms, and ashadly covered her face, moaning a reminder:
"There’s soone! There’s soone by the window!"
"Ah?!"
Taken by surprise per Veronica’s reminder, Leon reluctantly raised his head and looked towards the shut window.
The newcor, whom he had referred to the Clean-up Bureau, was clutching a large golden retriever, hiding his flushed face, and crouched back turned towards them within the window glass.
"..."
Not... you’re really committed, huh?
