On the way to Marshall's Mansion, Arya and Anne sat in the carriage, and they quietly poked their heads out to see Percival and Allen, who were riding white horses and leading the way in front of the carriage. Arya turned her head to look at Anne and asked her with some excitement, "Hey, Anne, don't you think Percival and Jacente look like two princes?" ”

"I don't think so, do I? They are themselves, not princes. This kind of fairytale idea is only for Arya, right? Anne asked rhetorically with her hands on her lap with a relaxed expression.

"What? Obviously you yourself have that strange and outrageous imagination, mine is normal! Not to be outdone, Arya crossed her hands on her hips and retorted to Anne, causing Anne to giggle.

At this time, Peake rode a maroon pony, leaned against the window, raised his head, and looked at Arya with innocent eyes: "Sister Arya, when you go down to the mansion, you must be careful of the person named Kane?" ”

"It's okay, don't worry, Pique! I have the confidence to deal with him! Arya straightened her waist and patted her chest with confidence.

"Hmm!" Receiving this answer, Pique smiled happily and nodded vigorously.

When they arrived at the gate of the Marshall Mansion, they saw several male servants holding large brooms in their hands, concentrating on cleaning, and when they heard the sound of carriages, they raised their heads and stopped what they were doing.

"Hello, Sir Bertheus, may I ask what is the matter?" One of the valets trotted up to him and asked politely, and after Percival landed on the stirrup, he spoke to him face to face: "Hello, please inform Master Marshall, that I have received a notice from the strange thief Rosemary, and she will come here tomorrow night to steal something." ”

"Loe, Rosemary...!?" The manservant took two steps back in fright, and some of the servants behind him began to whisper.

"No, Master Kane stole something again..."

"Ah, when will Master Loward come back, he is not at home, no one can control Master Kane at all......"

"I've been taught so many times by Rosemary, why can't Master Kane get rid of this problem......"

Hearing these whispers, Alan also jumped off his horse, walked to Percival's side, and said to the manservant with a pleasant face, "In addition, please tell your young master that Alan Jacente is also here, and greet him together." At the hearing of this name, all the servants were astonished.

"You... Are you the famous young magician, Mr. Jacent!? I know! Please wait a moment, I will go and inform the young master immediately! The manservant handed the broom to his companion behind him, and hurried into the door, and in a few moments the man who came out was not Kane, but James, the old butler.

"I'm very sorry, two gentlemen, Master Kann said that he would protect what was to be stolen himself, and did not need the help of two gentlemen. I'm really sorry, I've tried my best to persuade him......" James' face was full of guilt, and he bowed to the two young men very solemnly and apologized, in exchange for the surprised looks of the two young men.

"What?! How could this be......" Parcival lowered his head slightly sadly.

"Is this the hospitality of your young master Marshall? Pat is the head of the Knights with a distinguished record, and I am also the son of a noble earl, so I don't even give us this affection, your young master is really arrogant. Alan crossed his hips with one hand, chuckled mockingly, and flicked the brim of his top hat with his fingers.

"The guests are coming to their doorstep! Refuse to let guests in! How can there be such a master! Peake rode on the pony and shouted angrily at James.

"Really... I'm so sorry......" James kept bowing, not daring to look up at the two youths in front of him.

Hearing the whole passing by Arya and Anne looking at each other, they nodded tacitly, and then Arya spoke in a mocking tone: "Haha, I thought I could see a beautiful wedding dress, it seems that it was a trip for nothing." ”

What is this voice!? James straightened up instantly, looked at the carriage behind them, and saw Peake jumping off the pony in a hurry, walking to the carriage door, opening the door, and the two girls who came down made the old butler suddenly look hopeful.

"Old Mr. James, you go in and tell Cann that I'm coming, and I want to go in with Sir Perseus and Mr. Jacent, and have a look at the wedding dress that the thief wants to steal." With a happy smile on her face, Arya walked over to the two youths and looked at James and said.

"Yes! Miss Arya! I'll go! The old butler finally smiled on his face, and he turned and walked briskly into the door.

Within a few minutes, everyone heard a violent voice outside the mansion, gradually approaching the gate: "You idiot! Why didn't you tell me that Arya came with them!? Then they saw Kann grinning closer.

Just as Percival wanted to salute and Alan was about to reach out and take off his top hat in greeting, Kane ignored them directly, walked up to Arya, and greeted her in an almost flattering way: "Arya, my pink swallow, why are you free to come to me today?" ”

It's disgusting! Arya scolded in disgust, and she took two steps back, but said with a smile on her face, "I happened to be a guest at Peve Manor, and Sir Percival and Mr. Jacente received a notice from Rosemary that they were coming to you to steal the wedding dress, so I followed them to see what the wedding dress looked like. ”

"Hahaha! So that's it! That monster thief is really well-informed! Kann said with a smile on his hands.

"Master Marshall, can you show us the wedding dress? This time, my best friend, Alan Jacent, will also be with me to take care of the wedding dress. Percival finished speaking, looked at Allen, and finally turned his gaze to Cann.

"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Jacent! I was busy just now, please forgive me for being sloppy, I'll take a few of you to see that wedding dress now, come with me. With that, Cane turned and led the group into the door, with Arya raising an eyebrow and Anne walking in first, followed by Percival and Pique.

"Hmph, it seems that the previous newspapers are right, this guy is not only an aristocratic pickpocket, but also an inferior gentleman who only pleases women." Alan snorted lightly from the tip of his nose and followed.

Everyone walked through the hall on the first floor to the back door, Kann pushed open the back door and came to the courtyard overgrown with flowers and plants, he led the group through the courtyard to a large two-story villa that looked new, he opened the door with the key, and proudly invited everyone in.

In the large, empty house, echoing the footsteps of several people, Arya saw a very beautiful wedding dress on a wooden frame: openwork white satin woven into the shape of petals, wrapped in white glass yarn, white dress decorated with many small pearls and flowers, behind it was a large pure white bow in the shape of a windmill.

"Wow! It's so beautiful! Arya exclaimed and pounced, carefully rubbing her hands over the extremely comfortable fabric, and Anne looked around the wedding dress with a surprised expression.

"Oh! This one looks like a first-class product, using very rare high-quality fabrics, and the design is very ingenious, so it's no wonder that Rosemary was attracted to her. Alan looked at the wedding dress with his hands on his chest and made his own comments.

"That's nature! This is a wedding dress that I paid a high price for! Kane triumphantly crossed his hands on his hips.

"Are you going to give it to your fiancée?" Parcival asked, looking at him.

"No, no, it's not a fiancée! It's for my future wife, Arya Marshall! Kann spoke in such a surprise that everyone in the room dropped their jaws.

"What!? What are you kidding?! Master Canne!? Arya was so frightened that she immediately withdrew her hand, and she walked up to Kane in annoyance and confronted him.

"Arya! I know you love me! The last time I was at Carden Park, I was sure of it! Your rejection of me is being shy! I get it! So please forgive me for the mistake of the showcase! Not this time! Kann wanted to rush up and take Arya's hands.

"You've got a problem with your head, right?! Who loves you!? Go to the doctor if you have a problem with your head, don't come to me! Arya thrust Kane away in frustration, she no longer even had the idea of maintaining basic respect for him. Who wants to marry such a scum as a bride!?

"Arya! Calm down! Calm down! You're the earl's daughter! Anne hurriedly grabbed Arya from behind to prevent her from actually rushing up and punching Cane.

"Let it go! Annie! Let me go! I can't take it anymore! I'm going to have to punch him a few times before I'm willing! Arya waved her arms vigorously, and she was so angry that she was not ladylike, and began to scream.

"Ahh That's it! Girls often say that beating is kissing and scolding is love! I understand! Kann clasped his hands on his chest and nodded vigorously.

"Get out of here!! Who's flirting with you!? Cane's words inflicted fuel on Arya's fire.

Oops, what a mess... Alan smiled wryly and pulled down the brim of his hat, not wanting to see this absurd farce, he squinted at Parcival beside him. He found that his best friend hung his head and was silent, and his golden bangs cast a black shadow on his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression. Alan looked down and saw that Percival's hands were clenched into fists, trembling slightly, his knuckles turning extremely pale from the exertion.

Even Pique saw Percival's strange appearance, and he looked up worriedly at Percival's side face.

Ha, what a fool, so what are you going to do, Pat, a playful smile tugged at the corners of Alan's mouth.

“… Just as the scene in front of him was in chaos, Percival said the word, causing everyone to stop moving, and the commotion suddenly dissipated and became silent.

Ay!? Arya froze in place, her mind blanking and her heartbeat feeling like she had missed a beat.

"Hah, what are you talking about?" Kann asked in a mocking tone with his hands on his chest.

"Master Marshall, Miss Arya won't marry you, because—" Percival slowly raised his head, his light blue eyes shot an unprecedentedly determined look, his face was serious, and he calmly said to Canne, "Miss Arya has someone she likes!" ”
