C42 I'll Take Care of You This Is Just a Small Matter(1)
CHAPTER 42 TREATMENT OF YOU, A SMALL IMPACT (1)
"Why isn't Shuiyue coming out yet?" Mu Fan had waited in front of the county governor's mansion for an entire hour!
Mu Fan randomly picked a dress that Yih Shuiyue prepared for him and Mu Fan prepared to set off. The county governor's unicorn carriage was already prepared there.
Unicorn beasts were the specialty of the elves. Not only were they snow-white and beautiful, they also possessed the strength of a Class 4 Magical Beast. They were the favorite of the noble women in the Haotian Continent.
Generally speaking, a single mature Unicorn could sell for dozens of magical beasts of the fourth rank, or even be comparable to a magical beast of the sixth rank!
"Young Master, Young Miss is a girl, spending more time to dress up is understandable. As a gentleman, Young Master can't be impatient. Besides, Young Miss is putting in so much effort to dress up, isn't it better for you?" The young butler of the county governor's residence, Kris, said mischievously.
It was as if he had a master and a subordinate! Mu Fan shook his head helplessly. Yih Shuiyue was usually playful and playful, but he didn't expect his servant girl to be like that as well.
Yih Shuiyue finally walked out half an hour later with the support of her maidservants.
With her waist-length, waist-length blue hair, delicate and charming face, flawless skin, noble and gorgeous dress, and bright and colorful gemstones, Yih Shuiyue looked like a fairy from a painting.
He was already like this when he was only twelve. What could he do in a few more years?
"How is it? Beautiful, right?" Yih Shuiyue was extremely satisfied as she looked at Mu Fan, who seemed to have fallen into a daze. She asked complacently.
Realizing his ugly state, Mu Fan immediately coughed to clear his mind. He said nonchalantly: "Hmm, not bad."
The tone was as if he was judging whether a piece of clothing fit or not.
"Hehe, continue pretending. You were clearly fooled by me just now." Yih Shuiyue stuck out her tongue as usual and said playfully. However, she was still dissatisfied in her heart, "You only know now that I'm pretty, but you beat me up with such a heavy hand that day." "Hmph."
Having his thoughts exposed, Mu Fan's face reddened and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Logically speaking, I am already 30 years old. How could I have feelings for a 12 year old girl like you? Are I a lolicon?"
Mu Fan shook his head, then threw out the image of a withered old man in his mind.
"Hee hee …" Seeing Mu Fan's awkward expression, Yih Shuiyue laughed again.
"Mu Fan, today we are going to the home of our Cold Moon Empire's Old Duke Dreur to participate in his grandson's 18 year old coming of age ceremony. You should be more polite when you go later. " On the carriage, Yih Shuiyue explained the banquet's contents to Mu Fan.
"I know this even if you didn't say it." When Mu Fan was in Maple Tree Ridge, he had received three years of instruction from his mother. Although Mu Fan did not know about his mother's family, from his mother's temperament and demeanor, he could tell that his mother definitely came from a Wealthy Class.
"This is not the main point, the main point is that the old Duke's grandson is called Anderson, and he is currently a member of the group chasing me." Finally, Yih Shuiyue brought up the crux of the matter.
Since this banquet was Anderson's coming of age ceremony and this guy called Anderson was chasing after Yih Shuiyue, and since Mu Fan was now Yih Shuiyue's fiancé in public, Mu Fan knew that he had to get involved in this mess. Because he had already become involved in a power struggle, Mu Fan didn't think that an 18-year-old boy would like a 12-year-old girl and pursue Yih Shuiyue. Rather, he wanted to pursue Princess Yih Shuiyue's position.
Although Mu Fan didn't admit in his heart that he was Yih Shuiyue's fiancé, after almost a month of getting along with her, Mu Fan had a good impression of her. Hearing that someone was after Yih Shuiyue, a sense of annoyance arose in his heart and he impatiently said, "What's there to be afraid of? Can't we take care of him like how we took care of Hill then?"
Hearing Mu Fan's unkind tone, not only did Yih Shuiyue not get angry, but she was also happy. "This blockhead must be jealous, right?" Yih Shuiyue thought happily in her heart.
But then she remembered that Anderson had condensed battle qi last year, Yih Shuiyue couldn't help but to worry, "Mu Fan, you can't be careless, Anderson isn't a playboy like Hill, he already condensed battle qi last year, and it's an earth-attribute battle qi!"
"What's there to be afraid of? When fighting, we will be able to block the water. He has condensed his battle qi, but we are not weak people either!" Upon hearing Yih Shuiyue's words, Mu Fan couldn't help but start arguing with Anderson in his heart.
"This guy is really cute." Seeing Mu Fan's competitive look, Yih Shuiyue thought it was funny.
"Shuiyue, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for more than an hour." Just as they arrived at the Duke's Mansion, Mu Fan heard a young man's voice call out. The person who addressed Yih Shuiyue as' princess' was actually not called 'princess', but 'Shuiyue' instead.
"My apologies for making you wait so long, Viscount Anderson. Also, please call me Princess from now on. Thank you." Yih Shuiyue politely answered as she got off the carriage with Mu Fan's help. In fact, this was not Mu Fan's pretense, but aristocratic etiquette. When men and women were sharing a carriage, it was men's duty to help them out of the carriage, not to mention that Mu Fan was Yih Shuiyue's fiancé in name.
As soon as Mu Fan got out of the car, he felt a few unfriendly gazes on him. One of the most eye-catching ones was the owner of the voice, a blond haired and handsome young man.
"Little Princess, may I know who this is?" Anderson stared at Mu Fan and asked.
The matter of Little Princess having a fiancé was now known throughout the entire Blizzard City. Anderson's actions were obviously just asking for it despite knowing the reason.
"Hello, I'm Shuiyue's fiancé, Mu Fan." At this moment, Mu Fan stood out and said while reaching out his hand in a friendly manner. "What a joke! If you even need the woman's help with the introductions, you will definitely be mocked as a gigolo standing behind the woman."
"Humph!" Anderson didn't pay any attention to Mu Fan's outstretched hand. He only snorted and then turned around to walk into the Duke's Mansion.
Embarrassed, Mu Fan took back his empty hand. Although he maintained a smile on his face, he was still very unhappy. "This Anderson brat is too arrogant. I'll teach him a lesson later!"
"Darling, don't be angry. Let's go in. The old Duke is still waiting inside." Yih Shuiyue could obviously feel Mu Fan's unhappiness, so she held Mu Fan's hand intimately and walked into the Duke's Mansion together with Mu Fan.
