After eating and washing the dishes, Betty pulled Sid and Bingbing to sit in front of the fireplace, played a game of high-five, and began to tell them stories.

"A long, long time ago, at the end of the great river in the west, between the mountains, there was a castle of evil ghosts, and there were countless ghosts in the castle, and they looked so terrible and terrible.

One day, the beautiful princess was captured by a ghost......"

At first, the child was inattentive to what he heard, sticking out his tongue and making grimaces to scare each other, but the little face was not scary, only cute, and the crisp voice "quack" laughed non-stop.

It wasn't until the story entered ** that the children stopped being silent and listened with relish, worried about the fate of the princess and prince, and from time to time put forward their own naïve suggestions.

The story is fundamentally Betty's improvisation, so the development of the plot can be constantly revised according to the feedback of the audience, so that the children can be more engaged.

Chang Le sat not far away and stared at the warm scene, never getting tired of watching it for a long time, smiling all over his face, because this is a rare beauty in the world.

The two orphans looked focused and lovely, and there was no trace of melancholy between their eyebrows.

Betty is no longer the tavern girl with harsh words, and the innocence of a seventeen-year-old girl is unmistakable.

Her smile is like crystal, clear and transparent, without impurities, and her figure and face are like narcissus, delicate and beautiful, and lovable.

This girl is beautiful on the outside, but even more beautiful on the inside!

Chang Le never dared to claim to be kind in front of her, he himself was sitting on a huge fortune and had seen a lot of tragedies in the world, but he never thought of adopting orphans, because it was troublesome.

And Betty is still a poor unmarried girl!

Chang Le had a crush on her at first, just because she looked like Fanny, but now more tenderness poured out from her heart, pointing directly at Betty and having nothing to do with Fanny.

It wasn't until she sent her two children to bed that Betty regained her maturity far beyond her years, returned to Changle, and threw him a bunch of gold coins at "Jingle Bell".

Since it was said that they would each bear half of the rent, and calculated that Changle should pay fifteen gold coins in the first quarter, she would only accept fifteen, and the rest would be returned.

Betty refuses any "bounty", and it is because of this that Changle impresses her in the tavern and asks her to come back and continue chatting, resulting in a series of stories that follow.

But she refused to accept the funding, and then continued to accompany the wine and laugh, and was manipulated by men, this kind of "self-reliance" is what Changle never wants to see.

After returning the gold coins, Betty sat down in front of Changle with a bottle of wine and poured a glass for each of them.

Then she took the cup and touched it with Chang Le, and drank it all by herself.

"Why do you drink too much? Drinking too much alcohol is not good for your health. Chang Le reminded kindly with some mothers-in-law.

"Less wordy!" said Betty, impatiently.

Then, she drank again, and looked up from time to time, as if hesitant to speak.

Chang Le smiled:

"What are you trying to say?"

Betty continued to be silent for a moment, and her expression became serious:

"In the future, if we live together, there is one thing that must be made clear first. ”

"You know, don't sneak into your bed. Chang Le smiled and helped her make up for it.

Betty nodded:

"I see that you have no place to live, so I invited you back as a friend, and I lived together, not together. Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a study, you and the children sleep in the bedroom, and I live in the study. ”

"No, you sleep in the bedroom, I sleep in the study. ”

"Don't fight with me!I'll have the final say in my house!" Betty retorted sharply, then slowed her tone again, "Actually, I trust you very much, don't look at you with a beard like a villain, you are an honest person who behaves to me in the tavern. ”

Chang Le shook his head seriously:

"People are sinister, you can't be gullible, in fact, I'm not honest at all. ”

Betty laughed:

"What, you're trying to persuade me to kick you out?"

"I mean, the tavern isn't a good place for a good girl like you. ”

Chang Le said, pushing the prepared money bag and the gold coins returned by Betty forward, and continued:

"These gold coins are yours, don't go to the tavern again in the future. ”

But Betty only hesitated for a few seconds, and pushed the money back:

"No thanks!"

Then she got up and left.

"Betty!" Chang Le shouted eagerly, "I really want to help you!"

Betty leaned on the handrail of the stairs and turned back:

"The orphans I took in, of course I earn money to support, why should I spend your money?"

She still left, leaving Changle to pull her hair on the spot and worry.

I have nearly a million gold coins in my hand, but I can't help this girl, how did I say this?

When I went upstairs, I saw Betty rummaging through boxes in the bedroom, finding some bedding and pillows, and was about to go to the study to build a bed.

Chang Le sighed:

"Betty, I confess to you. ”

"What?" Betty looked back curiously.

"You look a lot like the lover of my dreams, so I want to take care of you and can't let you go to the tavern again, can you understand?"

"Liar!" Betty looked disdainful, "You are like my dream lover, and I am like your dream lover, fairy tale books will not be so coincidental, you make it up, you can make it up casually, see if I believe it or not!"

Of course, it is not a coincidence, it is precisely because Betty is very similar to Chang Le's dream lover that Chang Le will desperately save her in the chaos, and then become her dream lover, and now the dream lover has a scruffy beard and has degenerated into "very much like the dream lover".

This tongue twister is so messy!

Chang Le smiled bitterly and replied:

"When I have a chance to meet her, I'll show it to you, and you'll know that I'm not lying to you. ”

"Where is she?"

"Imperial Capital ......"

Speaking of which, Chang Le's face had darkened, and Fanny returned to the imperial capital, naturally with the crown prince, and maybe even lived together.

Betty's expression became clear:

"Imperial capital, the girls over there are more fashionable than the other, you have time to take me to see ......"

"Okay, bring the kids with you. ”

"Ouch!" Betty suddenly exclaimed, "Tomorrow's crown prince wedding, I heard that it is the grandest wedding in the history of the empire, I wanted to go and see the freshness, but I forgot!"

"What? The Crown Prince's wedding? Fanny married?"

Chang Le took a step abruptly and knocked over the chair next to him, his fists clenched at the same time, and his breath trembled.

Of course it's true, the news of the crown prince's wedding on the first day of the new year has already spread all over the world, many nobles have to rush to the imperial capital, and there are many commoners who go to join in the fun, just because Chang Le locked himself in the ground to meditate, so he doesn't know anything.

Although he knew that this day would come sooner or later, the suffocation in his heart still wanted to blow him up.

And this strong emotion also caused Betty to wonder, asking why he was so excited, Chang Le had already heard it.

He had only one thought in his heart, to go to the imperial capital immediately to stop it, that is, to tie it up, and to kidnap Fanny!

So he immediately pulled his feet, and in a few flashes of his figure was downstairs.

But the night is deep, and tomorrow morning it will be the time of Fanage, and the journey of two thousand kilometers will take several hours, and it will not be possible at all, unless ...... Unless you take to the skies again and break through the "sound barrier"!

"Solchak, give me your power!"

The Lord of Darkness in the ring yawned:

"Finally remembering me? Okay, make a deal, you use my power all day, and then let me control your body all day, how about that?"

Chang Le stopped, and his overly excited emotions gradually calmed down.

Reason told him that Solchak kept seducing him with his strength, and there must be a big conspiracy brewing, and the so-called "occupying" a day may be permanent, that is, "taking away"!

Even if it really only takes one day, with his physical strength, Solchak can at least recover the strength of the "War Emperor", there is no opponent in the world, who knows what earth-shattering things this guy will do?

Will the remaining mess at that time be cleaned up?

"What are you hesitating about?" Solchak sneered, "As the Lord God, I count my words, borrowing and repaying, and one day is one day." ”

"No thanks. ”

Chang Le cut off the connection and ignored him, then silently walked to the living room table and grabbed Betty's bottle of wine.

Now that the time has come to an irreparable point, and the pain in the chest is unbearable, the amber liquid in the bottle is the only cure.

Once the tears are opened, it is difficult to collect them again.

He could only wipe his face vigorously, put the remaining half of the bottle of wine to his mouth, and poured it down in one go.

This wine is very expensive, and it is far stronger than the ale in the tavern.

Chang Le soon became dizzy, the candlelight of the tables and chairs in his vision was double shadows, and the block in his chest was washed away by the spirits, he finally let out a deep breath, and then grinned.

He propped his hands on the table and looked down and laughed.

When Fanny first got along with him, she always looked forward to a grand wedding that would be the envy of all her relatives and friends.

Now that the girl's dream has come true, it's time to be happy for her!

"Queen Fanny, Mother of the Nation, hahaha! I am a national, you are the Mother of the Nation, and you will be my mother in the future!Hahahaha!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? She's the crown princess, not the queen. ”

Betty walked from behind at some point, put one hand on Chang Le's back and patted it, and then sighed and comforted:

"I guess your dream girl is Fanny, but when she gets married, you should forget about her, and that's over. ”

Chang Le turned his head to look at her blankly.

Betty snatched the bottle from his hand and pouted:

"You won't let me drink, and you end up drinking like a madman!"

"Fanny!"

"What?"

"I love to see you pout!" Chang Le smiled and wiped away a handful of tears, "You're back?"

"Huh?"

"It's good to be back!"

"What are you doing? let go of me!"

"I won't let go! I'll never let go again! I used to be stupid......"

Chang Le felt that the world was spinning, his feet moved back and forth but he couldn't stand steadily, but he refused to let go, and hugged his beloved girl tightly, lest he lose her again.

Then, it was dawn.

Chang Le woke up from his dream and found himself lying on the bed covered with a quilt, naked and undressed, with a headache and a dry mouth.

The window has turned white.

"Fanny's wedding is about to begin. ”

Chang Le's heart was sour again, but he was immediately shocked:

"How do I remember seeing Fanny last night?"

As soon as he moved his arm, he touched someone next to him, and the back of his hand was warm, soft, smooth, round and elastic.

"Whose ass is this?"

Chang Le's eyes widened and looked to the right, but he saw the girl lying on her side with her back to him, her slender figure was like Fanny, but the hair color was definitely not!

"Betty!"
