Chapter 32

got engaged

Lin Feng came to the commander-in-chief to report this news, and naturally only a few nobles and imperial ministers knew about it...

When he arrived at the command headquarters, Lin Feng didn't say nonsense, and he didn't even mention reinforcements. After completing the reporting procedures, he listened carefully to his training time, and then took the carriage back to his mansion.

In his own words, it's just: What a joke! The old man got engaged today, but he didn't have time to spend in the commander's office!

Because the engagement ceremony was held in a hurry, Lin Feng did not have time to send someone to send the news back to Talvo, and there was no time to inform his mother and old Carl that in addition to his subordinates, there were hundreds of guests invited.

Among these guests, in addition to Alpha and George, there were also representatives of the business groups who cooperated with the Snow Wolf family, as well as major leaders of the industries under the Snow Wolf family. Of course, all the nobles in the entire imperial capital also received invitations, but among all the nobles, the only Marquis Carson was the only one.

Many nobles who learned this news thought about the fact that the Parker family's industrial store was thrown into dust, and they had already guessed a lot in their hearts, but no one would say it in person on this festive day. Anyone who came to the Snow Demon Wolf Duke's Mansion to congratulate him was full of smiles and a harmonious atmosphere.

At night, as the sun sets, the engagement ceremony of Lord Snow Demon Wolf officially began.

According to imperial customs, when the engagement ceremony just begins, the woman will not show up. The man will find the guests. After the specific time is set, the woman will show up. Under the co-chair of the elders of both families, the engagement ceremony will be completed.

Now, the banquet has just begun. Although the woman has not shown up yet, Anne and Robert have been in Lin Feng's mansion. On this festive day, Lin Feng naturally would not set up too many guards to patrol carefully. With Robert in the mansion, he would not have to worry about the Marquis.

In the banquet hall, Lin Feng didn't know how many praises he had received, nor did he remember how many "thank you" he said. He walked among the major nobles with a constant smile on his face.

It can be said that Lin Feng's engagement did not shatter the fantasies of many noble girls. At this banquet, there were still many female guests. They had long known that the Duchess's position was not their turn, but the imperial law never stipulated that the duke could only marry a wife, so most of the young female guests attending this banquet were thinking about Lin Feng.

In a corner of the banquet hall, Lin Feng found two familiar faces, Baron Olica and his daughter Lucy.

Baron Olica had a gentle smile on his face and was chatting with a nobleman next to him, while Lucy next to him seemed a little depressed.

While Lin Feng cast a kind look at the people beside him, he also walked towards Baron Olica and his daughter.

Lucy had been paying attention to the protagonist Lin Feng from time to time. When she saw Lin Feng walking towards her, a surprise burst out in her empty eyes. She hurriedly pulled the sleeve of Baron Olica next to her.

Baron Olica had also noticed Lin Feng. He noticed his daughter's nervousness and talked to the nobleman in front of him for a few more words. When Lin Feng walked below a certain distance, he took Lucy's hand very appropriately and greeted Lin Feng.

"Congratulations to the Grand Duke, today must be the most unforgettable day in everyone present's life!" Baron Olica smiled very well.

"Thank you." Lin Feng smiled slightly: "I think I will remember this day forever."

After saying this, he glanced at Lucy next to him.

Lucy obviously dressed up carefully today, wearing a white suspender evening dress, clearly outlining her delicate figure. When she saw Lin Feng looking at her, she gave Lin Feng a smile she thought was the most beautiful, bent down slightly and said without hesitation: "Grand Duke, congratulations, I really envy Duke Anne's blessing."

"Thank you, I believe you will have the same blessing." Lin Feng's smile remained unabashed: "It's just that I have a heartless request. Although it is very presumptuous to say it out loud now, I sincerely hope that Ms. Lucy can agree to me."

"Ah!" After the words came, Lucy covered her chest with surprise. Just as she was about to agree quickly, she felt her father pushing her secretly and realized that she had lost her composure. After adjusting for a while, she replied with a smile: "Grand Duke, please speak."

Lin Feng saw it and did not expose it. He shrugged with a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Ms. Lucy may not know very well. There is such a custom in my hometown. When a man and a woman enter the marriage hall, if the man does not have the elders in his family, then he must invite a 'bridesmaid' for the woman. Of course, it is not to replace the elders of the man, but to support the woman into the hall and prove the beautiful love for the man. I am missing this bridesmaid now. May I ask, beautiful Ms. Lucy, are you willing to agree to my invitation?"

His invitation was not for superficial words such as proof of love, and the meaning of bridesmaids was not. In fact, he just hid a simple selfish thought. When Annie was about to come on stage, he would inevitably pay attention. He didn't want those fat business representatives and nobles with different appearances to stare at Annie in a daze.

Moreover, the wedding dress is always complicated, and letting the maid take care of Anne will have the best share. Originally, the one who took care of Anne should be her close friend in the aristocratic circle, but Anne has no good friend in the aristocratic circle. When Lin Feng came, he learned that Anne had not invited any aristocratic girl to help, so he always had this plan in his heart.

If you find such a bridesmaid for Anne and help Anne walk up, those lustful gazes will naturally shift to the bridesmaids, and the bridesmaids will also gain more "exposure" as a result, which can also provide a great opportunity for bridesmaids to "fish".

When Lucy heard Lin Feng's invitation, she was so surprised that she could not hold her mouth closed. She never thought that she would have the opportunity to play together at the future Duchess' engagement ceremony. While she was full of joy, she couldn't help but wonder in luxury, was this a hint from Lin Feng to herself?

"Of course, of course, this is my honor!" Lucy seemed a little incoherent, her face flushed with excitement, and she couldn't help asking, "But, what should I do?"

Although Baron Olica next to him did not misunderstand Lin Feng like Lucy, he understood that Lin Feng gave Lucy a chance to play, and in the future, his daughter would definitely leave some impression on many people present.

"Thank you, please come with me, the noble lady Lucy." Lin Feng smiled sincerely, then nodded to Baron Olica, and then took Lucy to the door of the banquet hall.

Along the way, Lin Feng smiled and explained to Lucy the specific steps she was responsible for. Lucy never thought that she would talk to Lin Feng so much alone. Her expression was quite excited and her face turned red. She could even feel the jealous look that other girls cast at her when they saw her walking with Lin Feng.

At least, at this moment, Lucy was happy in her heart.

Lin Feng naturally would not leave at this time. After asking Mary to leave here with his message and Lucy to find Anne, he started talking with the guests again.

As time passed, when the atmosphere of the banquet gradually became hot, after the last toast step, the engagement ceremony was finally here!

With the sound of the gift, the main entrance of the banquet hall was opened, and Anne, dressed in costume, appeared in front of everyone under the company of Robert and Lucy's support.

Anne, twenty-one, is in the golden stage of women's most beautiful women. In addition, her childhood environment is different from other noble girls, which makes her look a little more youthful and energetic that Lin Feng should have in his previous life. A pure white long wedding dress made by tailors and etiquette teachers who Lin Feng invited a lot of money to set off Anne's unique and lively temperament, making her look noble and elegant.

The narrow waisted long skirt perfectly presents the attractive curves in front of everyone, with soft hair squidly revealing the white and tender neck curves, which inevitably makes it look more feminine.

The tail of the long skirt is very long, followed by six maids and carefully supported it. Robert walked in front of Anne on the left, while Lucy helped Anne on the right, and walked slowly towards Lin Feng on the high ground as the band music rang out.

On such an occasion, Annie's face was filled with joy of happiness, and she looked at the surprises that had been seen everywhere. Her eyes stared at Lin Feng at the height of the sky. Although her steps were calm, she seemed a little anxious. Before the music could be finished, she had already arrived at Lin Feng.

Looking at Annie's slightly red face with thin makeup, Lin Feng's gaze became softer. After throwing a grateful look at Lucy, he took the initiative to stretch out a hand and hold Annie. Feeling some sweat in Annie's palm, Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Are you hot?"

Looking at the many guests below, Annie seemed a little nervous and shook her head slightly without saying anything. Lin Feng felt Annie's body trembling with tension, so he pulled her body and pressed her to her side. This action seemed very simple, but Annie seemed to have found the backbone at once, and she felt much more relaxed.

Next, Robert, the Duke of the Holy Land, who is famous in the mainland, served as the elders of both men and women. After taking the oath, the two officially made an engagement.

Afterwards, all the guests present gave their gifts. Lin Feng paid special attention to Alpha. Through the previous conversation, he had confirmed that Alpha was much better than when he saw him last time. Perhaps it was the Western orc attack that caused his father to give up the idea of ​​sending Alpha to the Moli Legion, which made Alpha seem to have regained his former vitality.

However, Lin Feng noticed that Annie's eyes were always sweeping absent-mindedly in the center of the crowd, as if looking for something, with anxious eyes in her eyes. She held Lin Feng's hand and couldn't help but exert some force under the nervousness.

Finally, Annie seemed to have found the person she was looking for in the crowd. Her eyes lit up and she stared at a man with pure black hair and a pale face. But just a glance, her eyes suddenly showed obvious disappointment.

Lin Feng couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Annie, who is that man? Is he the guest you invited?"

Anne nodded, and just as she was about to say something, Robert's voice full of emotion came from behind: "He is from the Dark Holy See."
