Since Lyon and Sophia first tasted the forbidden fruit on Chinese New Year's Eve, their lives have become regular in the following days - holding hands and shopping during the day, and not being shy or irritable at night.

Easy times always pass quickly, and the day when I was scheduled to leave China is fast approaching.

Sophia and Leon woke up early and began to pack their luggage and souvenirs to bring back home. A few days of sweet life have changed the temperaments of Leon and Sophia, and Leon, who was originally sharp, has become calm, and the taste of iron and blood on his body has faded a lot.

Sophia has changed from a girl to a young woman, with a little less youth and more maturity.

After the two finished packing, they reluctantly left the courtyard that had accompanied them for 5 days with their suitcases.

This courtyard has a lot of significance for Leon and Sophia, where the two broke through the final step of their relationship, and also witnessed Lyon's hasty marriage proposal, which gave the two more of a home than a hotel.

So before leaving, Leon specially found the owner of the house, and bought the house at a price that the other owner could not refuse, and Leon and Sophia made up their minds that they would have the opportunity to live here again in the future.

The return journey was not as complicated as it had been when it came, and everything went very smoothly, and the group returned to the British Concession by train, and then boarded a German military ship at the pier of the concession and left China.

On the ship, Leon and Sofia stood side by side in the stern of the ship, looking at the coastline farther and farther away, silently bidding farewell to this ancient country.

For the rest of the holiday, the two plan to travel around Europe, but unlike in China, their trip to Europe will take place as an official trip.

After more than ten days at sea, the two arrived in Portsmouth, England.

Portsmouth is known as the "City of Military Ports" because it is the main base of the British Royal Navy, where the Royal Navy's home fleet has been anchored for many years.

As soon as Leon got off the ship, he saw two huge battleships docked in the harbor.

Leon was a naval fan in his previous life, so he naturally paid attention to the powerful British Royal Navy, so he recognized the two battleships at a glance as the Warweary belonging to the Queen Elizabeth-class battleships and the Royal Oak belonging to the Vengeance-class battleships.

These two ships are now the main force of the British Royal Navy, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, which makes Lyon very jealous.

British Prime Minister Baldwin, who was already waiting at the port, saw that Lyon had disembarked, and he greeted him with a bunch of entourage, shook Lyon's hand warmly, and said: "Welcome all German friends to visit Britain." ”

Leon replied with a smile: "You are polite, I am really honored to be greeted by Mr. Prime Minister in person." ”

The two exchanged a few words of greeting, and then took a car to the hotel arranged by the United Kingdom to stay and rest.

On the way, Leon felt that this visit might not be easy, because it stands to reason that Lyon, as a senior officer of the German Wehrmacht, is not high enough for the British Prime Minister to come to greet him personally, and now the Prime Minister is coming to greet him personally, and the purpose is probably only one, to take advantage of Lyon's visit to Britain to completely pull Germany on the balance of its own balance on the European continent to fight against the powerful France.

But Germany shares a border with France, and if Germany openly accepts the co-optation of Britain, then France will certainly not make Germany, which is now almost undefended, look good. Therefore, Lyon will have to play the spirit of 12 points next, and every step may determine the future development of Germany.

After a full afternoon rest, in the evening Lyon put on his long-lost military uniform and was accompanied by a dressed Sophia to attend the evening party prepared by the British side.

Arriving at the door, Leon took a deep breath and strode into the ballroom.

At this time, there were already many people in the banquet hall, and when everyone heard the sound of the door open, they all looked back at the door. When they saw that it was tonight's protagonist who had entered, everyone stood up and raised their glasses to Leon.

Although Lyon had been the Supreme Commander of the Wehrmacht for some time, he had never attended a banquet of such a standard, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous at this time, forgetting what he should do.

Sophia, who was next to her, saw Leon's nervousness, she chuckled and hugged Leon's hand, signaling that she would stay by his side all the time, and that there was no need to be nervous.

Leon understood what Sophia meant, smiled at Sophia gratefully, and then tried to sort out his emotions, smiling and waving to everyone, so that he did not lose his temper in front of everyone.

"General Leon, I have heard about your deeds a long time ago, and when we meet for the first time today, we are really young talents." One of them strode towards Leon with a smile, stretching out his hand from afar, like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

Leon frowned slightly, secretly thinking that he was in trouble, he didn't know who he was, how should he greet him later?

Fortunately, Sophia, who was born on the side, reminded Leon in a low voice: "He is the second son of King George V and Prince Albert, Duke of York." ”

Hearing this, Leon greeted him with a smile and said, "Hello, His Royal Highness Prince Albert, you are too polite. Then he shook hands and hugged Albert while thinking carefully about Prince Albert's life.

Suddenly, Lyon remembered Albert, the future King George VI, who had been succeeded to him by his brother Edward VIII in 1936.

"Miss Sophia, long time no see." Albert smiled and greeted Sophia beside Leon, the two of whom should have known each other for a long time.

"Prince Albert, long time no see." Sophia made a ladylike salute and asked, "What about Princess Elizabeth?" Didn't she come today? ”

"Oh, she's coming, it should be over there." Albert pointed in a direction and said.

"Then I won't bother the two, I'll go and exchange marriage experiences with Princess Elizabeth." Sophia said with a smile, then said goodbye to the two of them and walked in Elizabeth's direction.

"Oh, you're getting married?" Albert looked at Leon in surprise and said.

"yes, she's a nice girl, isn't she? She had already agreed to my proposal. Leon nodded happily.

"Man, you're lucky, do you know how many handsome aristocratic guys have a crush on Sophia in our UK alone?" Albert said with a light punch in Leon's chest.

"But they don't have a chance, do they?" Leon smiled and patted Albert on the shoulder, secretly saying in his heart, Sophia seems to have attended various banquets with Strauss, and has so many followers in England.

"Haha, yes. However, only a young talent like General Lyon can attract the favor of Miss Sophia. Albert paused, pointed to a row of sofas not far away, and asked Leon inquiringly, "Let's have a drink?" ”

Leon thought that business had finally come, then nodded and said, "Okay." ”
