That evening, a small banquet was held in the barracks, and Alan treated him to Miranda's money. At the banquet, although Alan tried his best, there were too many people who couldn't stand the toast, especially those officers from the Youth League, and their gratitude to Alan to this day could not be expressed in words, but could only be in the wine, and in the end, Alan was still drunk and unconscious and was carried back to the room.

When Alan opened his eyes, he saw light streaming through the window of the room, indicating that it should have been dark outside. There were still many important things to do today, and he turned over and prepared to get up, despite the fact that his head was still a little dizzy from being soaked in alcohol.

But it was this turnover, Alan felt that something was wrong, there was actually one more person on the bed, and he slept under the same quilt with himself. He instantly lost all his appetite, turned over and lifted the quilt, revealing the figure below.

The soft curves of a woman wrapped in pajamas appeared in front of Alan, and her blonde hair spread out like a rainbow of clouds, obscuring the woman's face.

The posture of the sleeping woman is so quiet and graceful, like a fairy tale princess. Alan almost couldn't bear to bother, but he hesitated, but he still reached out to brush away the woman's hair, revealing a sleeping face with beautiful lines, thick and slender eyelashes trembling slightly with the breath of sleep, the straight bridge of the nose extended to the top of the red lips, and the end was slightly upturned to form a delicate and lovely arc. All this was so familiar to Allen's eyes that he couldn't help but exclaim:

"Miranda!"

It was Miranda who was lying on Alan's bed, and she was sleeping soundly, but she was woken up by an alarm from Alan.

"Brother Alan, you're awake. ”

Miranda stretched her beautiful body curve on the bed first, and then opened her eyes, just in time to see Allen's face open wide and shocked, she seemed to find Allen's expression funny, and couldn't help but sneer.

"Why are you here?"

Alan jumped out of bed and asked with a calm face as he put on his robe.

"This is Brother Allen's room, why can't I be here?"

Miranda was lying on her side on the bed, one hand holding her cheek, her blue eyes flashing, and she asked rhetorically.

"I'm asking why you came to my bed to sleep?"

Alan had to clarify what he meant further.

"I couldn't sleep in my room alone last night, so I ran over quietly. I wanted to talk to you, but I didn't expect you to sleep like a pig, so I fell asleep next to you, but I didn't expect Brother Allen's bed to be so comfortable, and I slept until dawn all at once. ”

"It's nonsense, how can you sleep in the same bed with me?"

Alan took on a tone of reprimand.

"What about sleeping together? This is not the first time, in the past, we used to go south together to track down the murderer and do mercenary missions together, and we didn't often sleep together, and you would still hold me at that time, why not now?"

Miranda still looked indifferent.

"You were still a little girl back then, but now that you have grown up, you are a woman who can be married, what is it to sleep in the same room with a big man like me?"

"I don't want to grow up. ”

Miranda jumped out of bed, stretched out her arms, and hugged Alan from behind.

"Brother Allen, I have no parents anymore, you are my only relative in this world, I am willing to be your little girl for the rest of my life, live with you, don't be separated. ”

Miranda leaned her head on Alan's back and sobbed.

"Silly girl, don't say that, Steven, Stanny, and Isha and Harvey are all your relatives, they all love you as much as I do, and you are not alone in this world. ”

Hearing Miranda's pitiful words, Alan's heart softened, and he turned Milan's body around and wiped away her tears.

"However, I only care about how you feel about me, Brother Alan, and no one else matters. ”

Miranda shook her little head stubbornly.

"Archmage, Lord Levins wants to see you outside. ”

Just as Alan was having a headache about how to persuade Miranda to leave, the voice of a guard came from outside the door.

"Miranda, what do you have on your mind, let's go back and talk slowly, I still have very important things to do soon, you go back first." ”

"Okay, Brother Allen, you remember what I said today. ”

Hearing that Steven was coming, Miranda had no choice but to leave first, although she was unwilling, she grimaced at Alan, then ran to the window and pushed it open, jumping out of the window.

Watching Miranda cast a soundproofing and an invisibility spell on herself before leaving the window, Eren understood why she had been able to sneak into her room without being detected last night, bypassing the guards.

"Brother-in-law, why is there a smell in your house?"

As soon as Miranda left, Steven pushed the door open and walked in, and as soon as he entered, he didn't feel right, he glanced around, and found nothing unusual, so he asked.

"I don't know, it seems to be the spices sprinkled by the servants. ”

Steven's question embarrassed Allen, he knew that the scent was left by Miranda, but he couldn't tell the truth, otherwise the misunderstanding would be big.

"Oh, the smell of this spice is pleasant!"

Steven agreed, but his eyes were still rolling around, still looking for the source of the scent, obviously not believing Allen's words so much.

"What's the matter with you coming to me so early?"

Alan hurriedly changed the subject and asked.

"That's right. I do have a big deal that I want to ask my brother-in-law to help me with an idea. ”

As soon as he got down to business, Steven's attention returned.

"What's the matter, sit down and say. ”

Alan asked Steven to sit down first, and then ordered the guards to prepare breakfast for himself, but Steven didn't eat either, so the two of them prepared it together.

"Brother-in-law, what I want to talk about is a big marriage event. ”

"Marriage is a big deal, and you're going to get married again?"

"Brother-in-law, don't get me wrong, I'm talking about Stanny's marriage. I have a wife now and I'm going to have a baby soon, but Stanny is so busy training all day that he doesn't have time to worry about personal issues, and I want to help him. ”

"It's still thoughtful, and it's my fault, I did ignore it. ”

Hearing Steven mention Stanny's lifelong events, Alan couldn't help but secretly feel ashamed, when he left Moon Bay Village with Stanny, Steven and Miranda, he took on the responsibility of raising them, and now Steven is about to become a father, and Stanny, who is older than Steven, is still single, and he has never thought of worrying about their lifelong affairs, which is indeed his own dereliction of duty. Although Stanny is not very old, it is not wrong to think about lifelong events earlier, and if he can marry a wife and have children, I believe that the spirits of Uncle Andy and Aunt in the sky will also feel comforted.
