“......。 ”

“......！”

"Ann!"

On the bumpy carriage, the green-haired girl woke up the boy.

"Huh?"

The boy gave a slurred response from his mouth, his eyes uncomfortable, and he reached out and rubbed it.

"Are you alright?" the soft face leaned closer, and the golden pupils were full of worry.

"What do you mean?" he blinked, trying to look cautious.

There were only two people in the small carriage, the young man—Ann's face was confused, and the other—Miku's eyebrows furrowed slightly when he heard such an answer.

"You've been distracted for the fifth time since you came out of the palace!" Miku crossed his hands on his hips, "I called you several times in a row this time without any response." I wonder if you're stupefied by the majestic architecture. ”

"How could it be ......," Ann laughed awkwardly.

Miku's anger makes him feel at a loss, and she rarely gets angry on weekdays, and even when she is harsh, she finds the reason for it from herself. Therefore, Ann blamed herself very much.

At the same time, he felt as if he had forgotten something.

How many times have I been distracted?

Ann fell silent, wondering if there was something wrong with his body. Now it's like I haven't slept well, and my head is groggy.

Miku suddenly laughed, and her quirky and cute appearance made Ann dizzy for a while.

"Well, I'm not really angry, I'm just amusing you. But it's true that you're absent-minded. ”

Ann could see concern in Miku's eyes.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

It's not just angry.

An settled down, felt the state of his body, and then said: "I don't feel uncomfortable, I guess I didn't sleep well last night." ”

With that, his head slowly became clear.

When Ann was sixteen years old, she left her hometown with her sister Mei Ke and joined the acting troupe that her sister knew well, so she met the introverted but very capable Bai Tuan, the indifferent and actually very good at taking care of people, the big brother of the sea who often goes out and has a very mysterious whereabouts, and the Als brothers and sisters......

and the head of the troupe, the most famous singer on the mainland - Miku.

With Meike's relationship with the troupe, and an unexpected participation when she first joined, Ann quickly integrated into the troupe and fell in love with the big family.

The troupe is traveling and performing, so Ann has seen different styles in various places and enriched a lot of knowledge, and because the troupe itself is very famous, Ann has benefited, and her fame has spread quickly. Now, a year later, Ann herself has a lot of fans, and finally she is less abrupt among the members of the troupe, who are all very popular.

In addition to traveling performances, the troupe occasionally accepted invitations from local residents and aristocrats.

On the one hand, it is difficult to resist the hospitality of the old audience, and on the other hand, they give a lot of ......

Just like this time at the invitation of the Empire, the remuneration received is enough for the entire troupe to eat, drink and have fun without doing anything for four or five years!

Of course, this is by far the most exaggerated pay, but even the least of them is a lot of money.

Having said that, the troupe can't just ignore the amount of money the other party gives. When you receive an invitation, you should know the relevant information in advance and accept it only if it is safe to do so.

There's no way, being too famous will cause trouble. There will always be people with bad intentions who want to satisfy their desires, especially when the majority of the troupe is women, so be more careful.

Captain Haku has put a lot of thought into this, although she doesn't participate in the show, but when it comes to importance, she can be above Miku!

Speaking of Captain Bai, her deeds are enough to be called legendary.

Not only did it single-handedly support the operation of most of the troupes, but it also had a way to gather local people to help build the stage everywhere he went. But this ability is no one to match, but she herself still has a lack of confidence, which really makes people don't know what to say......

A strange feeling entangled Ann's heart.

But similar feelings have been felt too many times, and Ann doesn't care anymore.

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect Suzu to be Liliana, the royal daughter of the empire, I thought she was a great nobleman, but I didn't expect it to be a royal family. Ann rubbed her face, which still seemed incredible.

Unexpectedly, Suzu would be the most noble princess of the empire, and the young company next to the girl was also the famous captain of the imperial guard, Reonhardt.

But think about it, it is also possible to have so much power in the imperial capital, only the royal family makes sense.

The most shocking thing was that he was mistaken for the regent of the Empire, but fortunately Liliana and the captain of the Guardian of Reonhardt were not angry about this incident, otherwise it would be difficult for the troupe to get out of the border of the Empire alive.

Ann was confident in her own force, but she hadn't imagined the extent of one person against one empire.

"Yes, Her Highness Liliana doesn't seem to be as tyrannical as rumored, and even made a joke on us by instructing the captain of the Reonhardt Guard to put on a mask. Miku covered his mouth and smiled, his eyes narrowing into a slit, "At first, I thought I would be killed for a misunderstanding. ”

As soon as Miku said this, and couldn't tell from her eyes what she was planning, Anshu was even more embarrassed.

An touched his neck with his hand and picked up the topic: "Her Royal Highness Liliana is indeed kind-hearted, and she has specially arranged a place for us to live." ”

When the troupe met the princess, they were not only dragged to talk about the topic of the world for a long time, but in the middle of the night, the young princess also arranged everyone to rest in the rooms in the palace.

This generosity frightened the people of the troupe, and the head of the troupe did not even sleep all night, and only fell asleep in the carriage after the convoy was back on the road.

"It's a pity that you still didn't sleep well because you were scared?" Miku opened his eyes, his eyes full of smiles.

The hand on his neck rubbed awkwardly twice, and Ann laughed a few times, unable to answer.

After a brief effect, Miku put his hand back on his lap: "However, Her Royal Highness Liliana is too enthusiastic, although we are a little famous as members of the troupe, we are still civilians after all......"

"Maybe I really look like the Lord Regent. Ann thought about it and could only come up with such an answer.

His eyes felt like something had entered, and he suddenly stinged. Ann frowned, and subconsciously raised her hand to rub it.

"Is it really just like?" Miku seemed to read Ann through, "You seem to have helped Lord Reonhardt with the day-to-day papers, right?

Hiss –

The corners of Ann's eyes twitched a few times because of the stinging pain. When he recovered, Miku's face was close at hand.

"That sword was also given to you by Her Highness Liliana, and it was obviously a ceremonial sword that belonged to the Imperial Regent......"

Miku turned his head to look at what was wrapped in a strip of cloth next to Ann.

Her words stacked together, making Ann feel like her brain was heating up, as if it was being burned by flames.

Ceremonial sword?

Is it that gorgeous sword?

The strange signs of fever made Ann's consciousness a little blurry.

"Even if you say that......" An muttered, "but I am, Sister Meike, my own brother......"

"Really?"

"No, then...... ......"

Gradually, even breathing began to become difficult.

Suddenly, there was a chill on his forehead.

At some point, Miku pressed his forehead up.

Ann was instantly awakened.

The tips of their noses touched slightly, and Miku said something like this:

"Well, I believe you. ”

Her eyes seemed to be shining brightly.

The smell of fragrance rushed to his face, and An's blood and qi surged, and he instinctively retreated, and the back of his head hit the carriage.

"Hehe, are you finally going to be shy?" Miku smiled narrowly, the hair on his forehead falling down, "I used to look like a nerd." ”

Ann looked at Miku, a little dazed.

He felt that Miku had changed a lot, and although she had a lively personality before, she didn't like to play tricks on people so much. Now, I feel that my personality is a little more mature.

...... But it's more attractive.

Ann's face flushed, and she pulled out the history books she often read from her package and blocked them.

"Eh, it's a lie, isn't it?!" Miku narrowed the distance curiously, "Are you so innocent, I haven't even noticed it in the past year." ”

The girl seemed to be venting some kind of emotion, and her voice was unusually loud.

"Sure enough, I have to take the initiative to ......"

The flirtatious loud words were mixed with a soft murmur, which was not noticed by Ann.

An had no way to retreat, and shouted through the book: "How did you become like an old lady!"

"Hmph, girls change very quickly, you have to get used to it. Miku stepped away, his hands on his hips.

When did her personality start changing?

...... It seems to be after the performance in the imperial capital?

Behind the book, Ann opened her eyes.

My heart is beating so fast.

Instinctively, he adjusted his breathing.

Before all her attention shifted to her breathing, Ann heard Miku's somewhat uneasy words.

"Ann...... Do you have a favorite girl?" As soon as the sentence was finished, Miku hurriedly continued, "Look, aren't there many people who are about the same age as us who are already married. I just wanted to ask your thoughts as a reference, nothing else...... If...... If you have someone you like, I can ...... Help you!"

Tie the knot?

Ann didn't understand why the conversation had turned to this.

But now that Miku asked, he began to think about it seriously.

It didn't take much time to come to the conclusion: "I haven't thought about it, my sister hasn't met the person she likes yet, so I'm not in a hurry." I want to wait until my sister gets married before making plans, otherwise I'm afraid of irritating her, and it won't be good if she finds a random partner. ”

"Well, I don't think it's far off......" Miku whispered something that Ling An was very concerned about, but she quickly changed the subject, "...... Do you have someone you like?!"

Miku's voice suddenly became very loud, interrupting An Xian, who had wanted to ask about his sister.

Like...... Everyone in the troupe likes it, and it makes him feel at home. But Ann also knew that Miku was not asking about this.

Digging into her heart, Ann looked up at Miku.

The only one who can be called the kind of favorite before men and women is Miku.

In this year in the troupe, they spent the most time together and had the best relationship. There is not only the reason why the two are the same age, but also the relationship between the two who are good at working together - not one person is responsible for one job in the troupe, because of the number of people, everyone basically wears many hats, and therefore, in addition to cooperating with the performance, Ann and Miku are often together at other times.

Now that I think about it, there may be a reason why Meike deliberately matched.

The answer is derived, however, a little unspeakable......

Miku is still pressing in, trying to get an answer.

Ann's face turned red, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

After staring at Ann for a long time, the corners of Miku's mouth gradually rose.

"yes, I see. ”

The girl sat back in her place dignifiedly, and she was clearly in a good mood.
