Chapter 170: The Wedding (Part II)
The blue and white low-cut dress depicting gold lace tightly wraps the petite body inside, and the wide skirt falls with some delicate patterns, and the necklace strung with silver filigree and sky blue gems perfectly sets off the slender neck.
The pure white lace gloves set off the girl's delicate white forearms and slender fingers at a glance, and the two crystal earrings that are almost transparent, just like the tiny little bells, seem to be able to hear the slight ring.
In the eyes of tailors and painters who really know how to appreciate it, such a simple and elegant dress can be called a work of art - the combination of sky blue and pure white, the materials may not be called extremely luxurious but extremely exquisite, the broken edges of the lotus leaf style and the small pendant on it, and the golden pattern is the pure and classical beauty is vividly reflected.
But in Allen's opinion, such a dress was not even as comfortable as the dresses he usually wore, or breeches and shirts, as if he was tied with ropes all over his body, as if it was very difficult to even stand up, let alone anything else.
But only today, the blonde girl's mood at this moment is not much uncomfortable, only faint uneasiness and excitement, and even feels that her breathing is beginning to become rapid, and her delicate body has been trembling all the time.
From the night of the coming-of-age ceremony to the vows that the guy made on his knees in front of him, it was as if a long, long time had passed for me, so much so that I couldn't believe it, as if it was just a dream.
Several young maids beside him were still busy putting on Alan's makeup. Blonde girl sitting motionless in front of the mirror. I feel like a doll. Being fiddled back and forth - as if it was just a matter of an eye, as if it were really a different person.
"Miss Allen is about to get married, Miss Allen is about to get married......" The little maid on the side was even more excited than Allen, breathing rapidly and holding the girl's slightly trembling hands tightly: "Today is the happiest day of your life-no, the girls in the world are not as happy as you, you are about to marry that Viscount Edward, and he still loves you so much!"
"Really?" asked Allen, a little shyly, showing a little woman-like expression for the first time: "It's really ...... than the whole world."
"Of course. You must know that there are few people like you and Viscount Edward, who are so affectionate and in love with each other—and they have heard of the kind of poor girl who has not even seen her fiancé until they are married!" The little maid nodded: "Is there anything happier in this world than marrying your beloved?"
The maids around were still hurriedly putting on the last few ornaments for Allen, but the door of the room was suddenly knocked, and the little maid who screamed jumped over and ran over to lie on the door, looked out from the crack in the door, and then turned her head even more excitedly: "Yes, it's Viscount Edward, Viscount Edward is here!"
"Let him wait a little longer!" Allen's face suddenly showed a frightened expression, and the maids beside him also sped up. When there was a knock on the door for the third time, the nervous little maid struggled to stand on tiptoe and hold the doorknob. The familiar figure was already standing in front of the door.
A long-sleeved dress in pure black, with a fuchsia ribbon and a silver-plated waist buckle, and a long cloak draped diagonally over the right shoulder. In his left hand, he held the hilt of the "Bright Star" sword at his waist, as if he were dressed as a knight.
When he saw Edward walk in, Alan suddenly stood up a little timidly, nervous and clumsy and wanted to bow down to him: "Love, Lord Edward......"
Before her legs were slightly arched, a pair of thick palms had already supported her flexible waist, and the tips of black hair brushed slightly from the girl's cheeks, and the thoughtful gentleness made Alan really feel it.
"My dear miss, you need not kneel before your own knights. Edward said with a low smile, the breath felt from the ears made the girl's face red, but she whispered a "hmm", and the whole person almost fell into Edward's arms.
Little Goodwin, who was standing outside the door and was also watching this scene, could barely speak. Standing in place like a goose, his eyes couldn't help but glance at the little maid on the side.
"I have something to talk to Miss Allen alone, so let's take Miss Lady's maid out. Before he could come back to his senses, Edward's voice came from his ears, and little Goodwin, who exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly agreed, pushed open the door, grabbed the little maid's hand and ran out together, not forgetting to close the door.
As if she was too excited, the blonde girl's cheeks were already red like ripe apples, hot against Edward's body, and her mouth was tightly pursed as if she wanted to feel the power hidden under her chest.
"You're shining today. Holding the delicate body in his arms tightly, as if it would be broken with a little force, Edward's expression seemed to be much softer: "Even more beautiful than when you were at the coming-of-age ceremony!"
"Really?" asked the girl softly, as if there was still some timidity in her voice, "Is it because I look like this, more like a girl?"
"No...... It's just two different looks. Edward smiled and replied, "On the night of the coming-of-age ceremony, there was a young girl who did not admit defeat, and now this one is about to become my wife." ”
"We're going to be happy, right, for whatever reason. Alan closed his eyes and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "The two of us will definitely be able to live this life happily, right?"
"Of course, this is the right that the Radiant Cross gives to all couples. Edward replied, frowning slightly, "Why do you ask?"
"Nothing, it's just...... Just a little worried. Allen's voice became quieter and quieter: "I'm worried that after you become the lord of Fort Hague, you won't want me anymore." ”
"I know you have a lot of dreams you want to achieve, a lot of things you want to do...... And I can't keep up with you at all, and I'm not as smart as you, I don't know what you're doing all this for, like a fool, just feeling scared, afraid that one day you're going to suddenly disappear and never come back!"
"But anyway...... Whether you chose me for the sake of becoming the lord of Fort Hague or for some other reason, I thank you very much!" Allen's voice became smaller and smaller, hugging Edward's arms tightly, and a happy smile appeared on his cheeks with his eyes closed: "Thank you, let me know the joy of truly being myself, thank you for being willing to keep your oath and always protect me!"
Edward's face showed surprise, and then he laughed again - Alan Kwyn, what a ...... It's so simple that it can't be described in words.,Obviously have such a sharp mind but are willing to rise and fall.,Naïve life.。
She understood it all from the beginning, and knew from the beginning the purpose of being by her side all the time, but she preferred to keep another illusion, a blissful and dreamy one......
"You've got one thing wrong, my dear Alan. Edward slowly let go of the hands that held the girl's waist, and then slowly held the delicate face: "You are right, it is indeed one of my goals to get the territory of Fort Hague, I am just a poor boy from the countryside, although I am arrogant, I once dreamed of having my own castle, this is a dream. ”
"But the dream ...... Or ambition does not mean that I will live alone - if I have to take that path, I will not be alone, and I will not abandon those who have been by my side, the most important!"
With that, Edward turned around with a smile, took the girl's arm, and smiled with a slightly inquiring tone, "Honorable Miss Alan Kwyn, may I have such an honor, and will you please walk with me?" (To be continued......)
