CHAPTER 1025: CHAPTER 1025: THE PRINCE AND THE PRINCESS (1)
Arthur originally intended to use this opportunity to establish his authority, and he deliberately teased Gan Yuan to entice her into making a move.
Arthur is no fool; he clearly understands Wilson’s intentions, and he also knows that the pit was a fake made by Gan Yuan, only pretending to be clueless.
Otherwise, how could an idiot ever become a General?
This time, Gan Yuan surely gave him enough face and suppressed the irritating Wilson, and Arthur knows when enough is enough.
"Don’t worry, Princess. The Giant Eagle Legion will absolutely not fail its mission!"
Gan Yuan nodded and solemnly spoke.
"The nation and the people will always remember the contributions and efforts you and your Giant Eagle Legion have made." Since this guy likes flattery, she doesn’t mind giving him more. "I appoint you as Generalissimo; for this Northwest campaign, you are the supreme commander!"
With flattery and an honorary title... Arthur, who always loved vanity, was thoroughly pleased.
"Rest assured, Princess. Arthur will definitely reclaim the Northwest!"
"In that case, why don’t we get into the car and discuss the specific details of the deployment on the way back to the city?" Gan Yuan turned to walk past the trees, "Helen, please escort the General and the officials to the car; I’m going to change clothes."
With this sentence, her tone regained its strength; the courtesy had been extended, and now it was time to assert her authority.
She could indulge Arthur a bit, but he needed to understand who the real boss was.
Helen raised her right hand, "General, please!"
Arthur smiled, following Gan Yuan out of the trees.
As he watched her figure ahead, he slightly curled the corners of his lips.
It seems he underestimated her before; this little girl is somewhat interesting!
Wilson exchanged a glance with his assistant, furrowed his brows, and followed the crowd out.
...
...
Finland, Hämeenlinna.
The street-side coffee shop bathed in the radiant Northern European sunlight, a scarf-wearing waitress smilingly placed the coffee from the tray onto the small table, then brought over a small piece of chocolate cake.
The open book fell, revealing an exquisite face with sunglasses, and Huangfu Qi’s gaze swept over the cake on the table.
"I don’t think I ordered cake."
"It’s my treat." The waitress smiled, gazing at his face, "You don’t seem like a local. If you need a tour guide, I’m off in an hour."
She had been observing this man for a while.
Since he sat here, he had been flipping through his book.
In just half an hour, he had flipped through a book from start to finish. Such speed couldn’t possibly be about actually reading it, and in between, he smiled at her several times with friendliness. The waitress considered herself quite enchanting, often asked for her number by patrons.
Thus, she assumed this man was interested in her.
Only, seeing he hadn’t spoken until now, she decided to take the initiative.
Huangfu Qi closed the book he had finished reading and smiled at her, "Thank you very much, but... I’m not here for tourism."
"So, you’re here to read?" the waitress asked, unwillingly.
Huangfu Jue glanced at the two-centimeter thick book in his hand, "In fact... yes!"
The waitress shrugged and turned to leave.
Since it was still early, the coffee shop wasn’t crowded; bored, she picked up the remote control, browsing through channels on the TV hanging on the shelf.
