After a low-intensity conflict that almost turned into a fire, everyone finally calmed down under Lu Xi's "suppression". Karin, who had the absolute upper hand, naturally held her head high triumphantly, while Artoria, who was completely defeated, pouted angrily.

Lu Xi shook his head helplessly, glanced at Karin complainingly, and then said to Artoria: "In other words, you are going back to China tomorrow, right?" ”

"Yes, in two months, the passage of the Hegalos Pass may be blocked by heavy snow. At that time, if you want to go back, you can only take a boat to detour, and I don't know if I can rush back before the queen mother's birthday. ”

"Well, you're hard enough, too. Although I am reluctant, I have to wish you a smooth journey. ”

This "reluctance" was naturally a polite remark, but Artoria heard it with another meaning. She raised her head and stared at Lu Xi, revealing an eager gaze.

"Actually, you can ......"

"Ah, I'm sure I'll go to the Northland one day, but not now." Lu Xi hurriedly interrupted the other party immediately, "After all, I am still a diplomatic officer of the Federation, since I have a salary from the government, it is not good to leave my post without permission." ”

Artoria closed her mouth in frustration and bit her lip, and the eagerness in her dark green pupils naturally subsided. Of course, Artoria, whose character is a hundred times better than Karin, will not force others casually, so she can only say against her will: "It is indeed against morality to leave her post without permission, I can understand it." Also, I would like to thank you for the gift after surrogate motherhood. ”

"Gifts? Queen mother? Karin was slightly stunned, and that Dimahia-style dangerous smile immediately crawled onto her face, which frightened Lu Xi's heart.

"This is starting to take the mother-in-law route? That's a good idea, little Lucy. ”

Anyway, he couldn't explain it, so Lu Xi simply pretended not to hear it, and then said to Artoria: "Oh, Olivier has already given you something?" Well? Then again, why didn't that guy come? Since I'm here to say goodbye, with the of that blonde Lai, it's impossible not to join in the fun, right? ”

Hearing others talk about her brother like this, Artoria only sighed helplessly, and didn't say a word of rebuttal. As for the knight Faos standing behind her, he only raised his eyebrows, and did not react to Lu Xi's words at all.

Feed? Dude, you're a Knight of the Nord! Don't you understand the truth that the Lord humiliates his ministers to death? Olivier children's shoes, what is your image in the minds of your family and subordinates?

"Olivier said that he had something to do first, so he couldn't come and say goodbye in person, and asked me to apologize to you. Besides, this, well, forget it......" Artoria hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to give up.

"He must have said something unspeakable, right?"

"This, this, no, he didn't say anything! It's true! ”

It's really clear that the natural stupid girl wants to lie, looking at the face that looks particularly cute after turning red, Lu Xi is more interested in Olivierliu's words.

Artoria bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind to do something, nodded heavily, and then said slowly: "In addition, next year's 50th birthday of the Queen Mother on April 23, the most dawn festival of the Nord people is also during that time, there will be many very interesting celebrations...... I really hope you'll come and attend. ”

"Dawn Festival? Sounds quite interesting......" Lu Xi just wanted to accept it, when he heard Karin next to him cough a few times, and his face suddenly became bitter: "That, if I have time, I will definitely go." ”

"It's decided, I'll wait for you." Artoria didn't notice the ambiguity in these words, and for the first time she smiled. She glanced at the expressionless Karin with a victor's snickering gaze before standing up, "Well, I really need to hurry up and hit the road." Please take care, Your Excellency Lu Xi. ”…,
