Grand Duke Ji Ting and Mrs. Marina sat in the living room, looking at the mature and elegant middle-aged man in front of him, with a little uncomfortable and embarrassed expression, especially Mrs. Marina. When she remembered what had happened during this period, she still had a hint of hostility in her eyes.

But even though they were dissatisfied, they still had to act hypocritical and polite in the face of Grand Duke Carlos at this moment.

Grand Duke Ji Ting was silent for a moment and said, "His Excellency Carlos, I have already known your purpose, but please forgive us for not being able to agree to your request."

Mrs. Marina also smiled against her will, "Xiao Ling is just a naughty and ignorant child. It is his honor to be liked by you, but he is probably not suitable to be your wife. Please forgive me."

joke!

How could they marry their only baby son to this deep and terrible Grand Duke Carlos?

They know more about Carlos than Ji Ling, so they know more about this man's coldness and scheming. If Ji Ling really marrys him, he will only be played with applause. And the most important thing is... they don't think Carlos really likes Ji Ling, and they probably made such a request to play with His Majesty. The real purpose is to bring the Ji family into the battle.

From any perspective, it is impossible for them to marry their son to Carlos.

If it weren't for his provocation, my son would probably be sweetly with His Majesty, right? Thinking of his son's depressed appearance, Madam Marina felt even more unhappy, but she was still unable to get angry with Carlos. She just felt so depressed that she had to force her smile.

Carlos looked at Ji Ting and his wife who were cautious and alienated, and showed an elegant and decent smile, with a sincere look on his face: "I can understand your concerns about this marriage, but I came here today with great sincerity. I sincerely beg Ji Ling and promised that there will always be only one lover. If I can't do it, I am willing to divide half of the property of the Carlos family as compensation for him."

As soon as this said, Grand Duke Ji Ting and Madam Marina looked at Carlos in horror. He wasn't crazy, how could he say such words?

The Carlos family is so huge and has a long history. The industries involved are spread throughout the empire and are everywhere. They are a huge creature that can affect the lifeline of the empire's economy! Even half of the property is so huge that it is impossible for him to use his family as a joke. Whether he is sincere or not, he will treat his son kindly.

But this is too surprising. Is it necessary?

The nobles of the Empire have always been open to private life. It is very common for lovers or divorces after marriage. Some people have their own things, which is not a big deal. They were just worried that Carlos would use to hurt Ji Ling before, not because they would be worried that Carlos would have other people in the future. If they had a big relationship, they would break up... They never thought of asking him to make such a promise.

At this moment, Ji Ting and his wife were a little dazed. Could it be that Carlos really fell in love with their simple stupid son?

How is this possible?

Grand Duke Ji Ting hesitated for a moment. Although he began to believe Carlos' sincerity, he was still unwilling to take risks. He smiled and said, "We know your sincerity, but Xiao Ling's naughty character is probably not suitable, so there is no need for this..."

Carlos smiled slightly: "He is like this, and he will naturally be able to tolerate everything about him. And I can guarantee that my marriage has nothing to do with anything else-"

He met the eyes of Ji Ting and his wife, with deep and sharp eyes, and said slowly: "I will not have any requirements for the Ji family because of this."

The implication is that he only wants Ji Ling and promises not to pull the Ji family into the battle between him and the emperor.

He knew what they were worried about.

Grand Duke Ji Ting fell silent again. This time even Madam Marina was silent. Carlos easily resolved everything they were worried about, so that they could no longer find any excuses to refuse.

The two looked at each other quietly, but they didn't expect that things would develop to this point. Carlos could do this in order to marry Ji Ling, which was completely beyond their expectations. But no matter what, they still felt that such a person was not suitable for their son...

Mrs. Marina gritted her teeth and said, "Thank you for your kindness to Xiao Ling. We believe in your sincerity. But the most important thing about getting married is the child's own feelings, so I'm sorry-"

At this moment, a cold voice sounded aside, "I do."

Mrs. Marina looked up in surprise and saw Ji Ling wearing a small white dress, her soft blonde hair fell on her forehead casually, and her head showed a beautiful and delicate face, and there was a calm and indifferent look in her blue eyes.

He walked over step by step, his eyes swept over Carlos lightly, opened his lips slightly, and said to his father and mother slowly and clearly: "I am willing to marry Uncle Carlos."

Grand Duke Ji Ting and Madam Marina were both shocked. Didn’t my son always like His Majesty? Even if there were some misunderstandings and displeasures before, he wouldn’t like Carlos because of this? They knew very well that Ji Ling had always regarded Carlos as his elders before.

Mrs. Marina held her son's hand and lowered her voice and said, "Xiao Ling, what are you talking about? Haven't you always like Your Majesty?"

Ji Ling raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "I don't like it now."

Mrs. Marina wanted to persuade again: "But..."

Ji Ling interrupted her and said in a faint voice: "I like Your Majesty before, but whoever stipulates that I must always like him and can't like others?"

Grand Duke Ji Ting couldn't help but say, "Don't speak angry."

Ji Ling's eyes were persistent, "I didn't say anything angry, I was serious. I used to like Your Majesty, but I admired him because I was ignorant and admired him. Now I am an adult, and I know what real love is. Uncle Carlos has always been very nice to me. I like him very much and am willing to marry him. Isn't that okay?"

Grand Duke Ji Ting, Lady Marina: "..."

Ji Ling said word by word: "Mom and Dad, don't you want me to be happy?"

The two were speechless by Ji Ling. They were unwilling to believe that Carlos was a person like him. They thought that Ji Ling was still angry with Jing Sui and was deceived by Carlos... But Ji Ling said such words in front of Carlos. If he and others disagree, wouldn't they be the evil person who broke up the couple?

Carlos - It's not that they can be kicked out by their slap!

Mrs. Marina was anxious, embarrassed and helpless, and wanted to drag Ji Ling back and criticize her fiercely, but she was embarrassed to do so as to see Carlos sitting there firmly.

Grand Duke Ji Ting also had a stiff expression and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Seeing the atmosphere at a deadlock, Carlos Shiran stood up, he raised his hand and stroked Ji Ling's head, with a gentle and doting look in his eyes, then looked up to face Grand Duke Ji Ting and Madam Marina, and smiled: "I know your worries about this matter and fully understand your feelings, but I will prove that I am sincere to Ji Ling, and you can give him to me with confidence."

Seeing that things had reached this point, for a long time, Grand Duke Ji Ting finally showed a decisive expression. He said in a deep voice: "I can agree to your request, but there is a condition."

Carlos said: "What conditions?"

Grand Duke Ji Ting gave his wife a look of peace and said to Carlos: "Ji Ling is still young and he is inevitably impulsive to do things, so I hope that now it is just an engagement, and the real wedding must be held in a year."

Even if the child agreed to Carlos impulsively, one year was enough for him to calm down and figure out what he wanted. It would be time to terminate the engagement, which also gave everyone a buffer.

If Carlos is consistent a year later and Ji Ling still insists on marrying him, then it is not impossible for them to agree to this marriage.

Grand Duke Ji Ting knew that his request was a bit too much, but he had to do this for the sake of the future of the child. He did not want the child to regret the pain in the future.

This is also his bottom line.

Carlos looked at him and nodded without hesitation: "I promise this condition. Everything is subject to Xiao Ling's wishes. If one day he is unwilling to marry me, the engagement can be terminated at any time, and I will never force it."

Hearing Carlos's words, Grand Duke Ji Ting and Madam Marina finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were still a little worried and uneasy, they were no longer as resistant as they began to start.

My son is determined to marry Carlos. What else can they do? I just hope that the child will wake up soon.

Seeing that the matter had been decided, Ji Ling said, "Mom and Dad, Uncle Carlos and I will go out first."

Mrs. Marina and Ji Ting showed a tired smile.

Ji Ling turned around and left here.

He walked in front, and Carlos followed him slowly. When there was no one, Ji Ling stopped, showed a complicated expression of apology and gratitude to Carlos, and whispered: "Thank you."

Carlos looked at Ji Ling with deep eyes, laughed softly, his voice was low and magnetic: "What's the point of being polite to me? It's just a matter of raising hands. I will let the whole world know that you are about to become my wife, so that Your Majesty can't bother you anymore."

Ji Ling nodded, his eyes dim, as if he was still immersed in sadness, and he showed a reluctant smile: "When your Majesty gives up, we will terminate the engagement, and this period of time will cause you trouble."

Carlos sighed, rubbed Ji Ling's head, and said slowly: "What trouble is this? I'm willing to do it."

Ji Ling was about to be smeared by him, and just wanted to leave earlier. He pretended to be embarrassed and turned red red, and lowered his eyes and said, "Then I'll go back first, see Uncle Carlos."

Carlos smiled and nodded, looking at the boy's back as he left in a hurry, and the corners of his lips slowly curled up.

……………………

Carlos did what he said. That afternoon, the news of his marriage contract with Ji Ling made headlines and caused a sensation across the country overnight!

Less than ten days after His Majesty confessed to Ji Ling in public, news of Ji Ling and Carlos' engagement came out, completely hammering Jing Sui's cuckold!

This is incredible!

The great Duke of Carlos, who is rich and powerful, is getting married. He is the famous imperial playboy Ji Ling, and he is robbing his love from His Majesty!

His Majesty the Emperor was cuckolded and snatched his wife. He wanted to snatch his wife to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him to snatch him!

What a shocking news!

Although the two sides had always had political disagreements, they were just private fights. On the surface, they were still harmonious. When they had the status of His Majesty and Carlos, they would not easily make any irrational actions. After all, they represented too many things... And now Carlos actually directly snatched love, which was like a slap in the face of Jing Sui! Openly fighting!

People across the country are excited!

There are various gossips on the Internet every day, and there are several arguments that are quarreling and there are many different opinions.

Some people say that Ji Ling is a misfortune of Lan Yan. Although this playboy is so spicy, she is really beautiful. Unexpectedly, Grand Duke Carlos and His Majesty are both beautiful and have a fuss to such an extent to steal a playboy who is pretty.

Some people say that they don’t like Ji Ling, but just use Ji Ling to play games. How could their wise and powerful Majesty and the elegant and noble Grand Duke Carlos look down on those kind of playboys? What kind of beauty have they never seen?

Ji Ling stayed at home and watched the fire from the other side of the river.

Anyway, all he wants is just a name, and he is not really planning to marry Carlos. He has done what he should do. Now let Jing Sui and Carlos fight, and it has nothing to do with him. When they fight out a victory or defeat, no matter whether Carlos wins or loses, he can naturally find reasons to terminate the engagement.

The system also paid attention to the fun and couldn't help but sigh: [You are really popular now.]

Ji Ling: [Do you want this kind of fire? I'll give it to you?]

system:【……】

The system felt aggrieved. Recently, his host's mouth became more and more poisonous, so he knew to vent his anger. But when he thought about Ji Ling could only be arrogant in front of him, he was generously forgiven - he was a qualified system.

That night, Ji Ling returned to his room after dinner and met Wen Yan who was waiting for him again.

Ji Ling was almost numb about Wen Yan's involvement in front of him. This villain didn't know where to get in the air in this life, but he just liked to waste time with him. It was obvious that he had never seen him care about him in his previous life.

Probably rebirth makes people crazy?

Fortunately, Wen Yan always pretended to be humble and polite in front of him, so Ji Ling treated him more easily and casually, frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?"

But this time, this man who has always been calm and humble, had a cold face and a sharp gaze fixedly looking at Ji Ling's eyes and said, "You can't marry Carlos."

Ji Ling was stunned for a moment. Wen Yan made him alert all of a sudden. He thought to himself that I didn't plan to marry Carlos, but he said in a cold tone: "It's not your business."

Wen Yan's chest was undulating for a moment when he heard this. As soon as he thought that Ji Ling was about to marry Carlos, he could no longer continue to pretend to be nothing. The cold light in the phoenix eyes was cold and he said hoarsely: "Do you think Your Majesty is using you, isn't Carlos using you?"

When Ji Ling heard this, he advised him again, and immediately showed his expression of hatred for His Majesty because of love and said coldly: "So what?"

Wen Yan's heart was cold and he closed his eyes in pain, so... you just believe in Carlos? Since you are so easy to cheat, since Carlos can do anything... Then why can't I?

He suddenly opened his eyes, and the thick ink surging in his eyes. He suddenly stepped forward to hold Ji Ling's wrist and pulled him in front of him!
