Coming to Baili City again, Stannis's heart was full of emotion.

Two months ago, he was still an ignorant teenager who had just crossed over, standing penniless under the city walls.

Now, after experiencing so many unforgettable things, although he is still not good, his heart has been tempered and has grown into a true ......

"Brother Stan, you're here!"

With the long-lost laughter of silver bells, Anistre's slender and lovely body reappeared, and the girl ran over excitedly with her skirt and hugged his neck, hanging on him like a little koala.

"I knew you'd be back, Brother Stan. Anne said in her sweet voice, and Stannis felt his ears were filled with honey.

He noticed a large number of people behind him, including guards and servants, and it seemed that his fiancée was waiting for him outside the city early in the morning.

And the valet named Lina still stood there with her head bowed respectfully, and Stannis even doubted that the beautiful woman had any feelings.

"Brother Stan, where are you looking!" Anne noticed the drop in his eyes, and immediately shook coquettishly, although this little woman was very light, but Stannis's neck was not iron.

He gently grabbed her by the waist and lowered her, then turned and rummaged through his bag.

"A gift for you, little Annie. He handed her the beautiful little box and said mysteriously.

"What?" asked Anne as curiously as a little girl, stroking the box with love, "This box is so beautiful." ”

Stannis knew she was going to like it, "Open it and see." ”

Anne obediently opened the box, and the brilliant tricolor gems appeared in front of her eyes.

If it were other women, they would have screamed with excitement stimulated by these precious stones, and if the heart was bad, it would have been myocardial infarction. It's just Anne, the pretty girl, who doesn't seem very excited.

Stannis, who had spent a lot of money to please her, was of course very unhappy.

"Don't you like it, Annie?" he asked tentatively.

In an instant, a bright smile appeared on Anne's face again, she gently took her fiancé's hand, and said coquettishly: "What do you say! I'm so happy, but these gems are very valuable, right? You spent so much just to make me happy, will you be too wasted......

How virtuous his fiancée is! There is still a wife who is reluctant to give her a jewel from her husband, and Stannis has decided to marry this dream bride who is perfect both on the outside and on the inside, and then she will be carefully raised as a standard wife who is a noble lady in appearance, a housewife, and a in bed.

"Annie......" Stannis was already moved and didn't know what to do, except for his mother and the muse of his dreams, no woman was so intimate with him.

"Alright, alright, don't cry in front of so many people. Anne tapped his nose, and though she took his hand and ran merrily toward the city.

At night, the hall of the Marquis of Flode's mansion in Belle City is brightly lit.

The dressed Mademoiselle Marquis Anister Froude was of course the highlight of the ball, and countless people gathered around her, saluting her, blessings and compliments.

Half because of her beauty, and half because of the power of the Marquis of Flode.

Stannis was undoubtedly squeezed out by the crowd, and he could only hide in the corner of the banquet with a glass of wine and watch the men and women perform hard.

He learned to pretend to be a nobleman, and at the same time looked left and right to observe that there were no compliments on her fiancée at the banquet.

At the entrance of the hall, a man and a woman were watching Anne with cold eyes, and after the introduction before the banquet began, he knew that it was the second lady of the Flod family, Helita, and her husband, who had been hiding in the crowd, so they did not know about their arrival.

It's just that he was surprised that the Marquis de Freud did not show up at her precious daughter's birthday party.

At this moment, a gentle but cold voice came.

"Your Excellency Justine, do you want to refill the glass?"

Stannis turned his head to see that it was Lina, Anne's personal maid, with a crisp mid-parted hair that hung down to cover the left side of her face.

"Lina, can I call you that?" Stannis bared his white teeth, the result of which he kept brushing his teeth to show.

"Absolutely, Your Excellency. Lina maintained her usual humility.

He raised the empty glass in his hand, "You just asked me if I want to refill the glass, right? Thank you, but I've been drinking all night." ”

"And my bladder is now like an inflated balloon that could burst at any moment. He added, because he wanted to make fun of the three-nil girl.

But Lina remained expressionless.

Stannis was deflated, it looked like he still needed to improve his skills, "You don't have to worry about me, I see that you have been serving back and forth all night, and you have to find a chance to be lazy or something." ”

But Lina had no intention of leaving, she quickly turned her head to look in Anne's direction, made sure that her master really couldn't see her, and then pretended to be Stannis, although her facial expression remained calm, but her tone still couldn't hide a slight anger.

"Why are you still here? ”

Stannis was confused by her, "Why can't I come for my fiancée......'s birthday?"

But Lina interrupted him rudely, forgetting their respective identities, "Aren't you hurting her enough!"

The lord felt that his mind was a little confused, and he hurt her, but how could he hurt her without even getting her blood!?

"What are you talking about!" Stannis was also a little angry, "how could I hurt my fiancée, and besides, you have seen it, how glad she is to see me." ”

Lina couldn't believe her ears, she couldn't believe that the man in front of her could pretend to forget anything!

"Can't you see that she's pretending, don't you feel her hatred!"

"Oh, oh, calm down, Miss Lina. Looking at the maid in front of her, who was getting more and more excited, Stannis hurriedly waved her hand to stop.

The woman breathed a sigh of relief, she also knew that she had lost her temper, "In short, please stay away from Miss in the future, I can't bear to see her heartbroken for you." ”

With that, the maid bowed to him and turned to leave.

He didn't remember when he had broken Anne's heart, at least in his memory, when they were planning their wedding a year and a half ago.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and the onlookers were clear, maybe there were people in the crowd around him who didn't know his real person and could provide valuable information.
