Fell in love with someone else so soon?

Long Ling broke off communication with Annie, and then Modai came to her too.

Mrs. Rosalind had also sent a message to Modai, hoping that she could help Annie through this difficult time for the sake of their past friendship.

Doing so would not only protect Annie’s property, but Long Ling could also gain some benefits from it.

“Annie’s mother used to help me a lot. If you don’t like Annie, you can find another Alpha to help, but it will take more effort.”

Annie’s situation was urgent.

Long Ling didn’t want to take advantage of her misfortune or marry her, but she couldn’t bear to see Annie in trouble.

She only hoped that Annie would find an Alpha they both liked in the future.

Long Ling nodded slightly: “I can help her.”

Modai patted her hand: “You’re being wronged in this matter. The engagement ceremony should be simple. Just inform some of Annie’s relatives and friends. No outsiders will know. We will keep it a secret. We must not let Violet know.”

Last time, she didn’t know how Long Ling dumped Violet, but Long Ling’s former fiancée was definitely not someone to be trifled with. Letting her know would definitely cause big trouble.

When Long Ling heard Modai mention Violet, she remembered that Violet was lying to her again, hiding everything from her. This time, she wouldn’t tell Violet either.

Seeing that Long Ling didn’t object, Modai said,

“There’s one more thing to tell you. Sylvia, who was originally imprisoned in the Security Bureau, has escaped. Afterwards, I sent people to inquire, but couldn’t find any trace of Sylvia.”

Modai suspected that Sylvia had returned to her old nest on the continent of Odd, but Violet’s territory lay across the middle, prohibiting elves from entering.

Modai wanted to arrange for people to inquire, but couldn’t get any news, only hearsay that Violet had suddenly sent troops to a certain earl’s territory.

There weren’t many normal dragons in the Dragon Royal Family.

Modai couldn’t figure out Violet’s thought process. It was difficult to guess what was on the mind of this kind of dragon.

If she was targeted, her family Long Ling wouldn’t have a good life in the future.

Long Ling pursed her lips: “It’s okay, I also fought back. Sylvia has been imprisoned in the Security Bureau for so long. She should be more honest in the future.”

Modai couldn’t help asking, “Why is that Sylvia suddenly targeting you? I haven’t heard you mention her before?”

Long Ling said faintly, “She said she had known Violet for many years and felt that I was not worthy of Violet, and wanted to give me a lesson.”

Modai was immediately annoyed: “What’s not worthy? My daughter is beautiful and has good cooking skills. She can have a good life even if she doesn’t marry Violet.

Being with Violet will only make her feel wronged. Don’t listen to that Sylvia’s nonsense. In my heart, you are the best kid!”

If it weren’t for Long Ling’s grandmother making the decision, she wouldn’t have agreed to that engagement in the first place.

Plain and simple is the real deal.

A little dragon like Annie is much better, at least she can live a down-to-earth life.

Long Ling sighed slightly in her heart, fortunately she didn’t reveal that Violet had lied to her that Sylvia was her subordinate, otherwise her mother would be even more angry.

Long Ling comforted, “Let’s just leave it at that. Anyway, I won’t be with Violet. Her affairs have nothing to do with me in the future.”

The news that Long Ling and Annie were getting engaged was kept tightly under wraps.

Except for relatives and friends, almost no one else knew.

But there is no completely airtight wall in the world.

Violet finished the morning meeting and was drinking coffee by the window when she suddenly heard whispers from downstairs.

“Did you hear? Our governor’s former fiancée, Long Ling, is getting engaged to another Omega.”

“Really?”

“Of course it’s true. I have the wedding invitation here. Annie is my distant cousin. Her mother personally sent it over. Annie and Long Ling are getting engaged. I’m even taking leave tomorrow to attend the wedding.”

“What about our governor? I haven’t heard anything about them calling off the engagement?”

“Which Alpha would like a dragon like the governor? She looks very cold, neither gentle nor considerate. Maybe they broke off the engagement a long time ago, but have just been keeping it a secret. What’s so strange about that?”

Violet’s face turned pale.

She thought that Long Ling was recuperating in the forest, and would come back to her when she recovered.

She didn’t expect Long Ling to marry another Omega!

Did Long Ling no longer love her?

Did she fall in love with someone else so quickly?

Were all the things she said before lies?

Why didn’t she tell her about this?

If she didn’t know, would Long Ling pretend she didn’t exist, and marry another Omega and stay with them forever?

She had already made changes, why didn’t Long Ling still believe her?

The engagement ceremony was to be held in Annie’s hometown.

Long Ling only needed to cooperate a bit.

Mrs. Rosalind had made thorough arrangements.

The engagement was a grand affair, and all of Annie’s relatives and friends arrived as guests.

In the dressing room, Long Ling was wearing a white wedding dress made of the finest yarn, letting the makeup artist do her makeup in front of the mirror.

There was no smile on her face.

The blush was too heavy, making her look different.

Annie opened the door of the dressing room.

The first time she saw Long Ling, her eyes lit up. “Long Ling-jie jie, you…”

Annie held her hot cheeks with both hands, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed.

She had never been married before, and being with an older Alpha like Long Ling felt quite fresh.

Besides, Long Ling was very beautiful.

She wasn’t at a disadvantage at all.

Even if they were just pretending, it was still quite nice to think about.

Long Ling shook her head, and found that Annie’s cheeks were flushed, and couldn’t help but curl her lips.

Annie’s face turned even redder when she saw it, and blinked and asked, “Long Ling-jie jie, what are you laughing at?”

Long Ling curved her eyes and said softly, “I was thinking of the make-believe games we played when we were little.”

Annie got up from the makeup chair, lifted the clean skirt and spun around Long Ling, her bright eyes full of twinkling stars: “I am Long Ling-jie jie’s bride today, super beautiful~”

She looked around in the dressing room, found a golden glittering egg, originally used as a prop for the wedding, now she held it in her arms, and leaned softly on Long Ling’s body.

“Long Ling-jie jie, look at our dragon egg, it’s golden, a family of three.”

Annie took Long Ling’s hand and put it on the golden egg, and said seriously:

“You should say, thank you for giving birth to a dragon egg for me, you will always be my most beloved wife.”

Long Ling couldn’t help but laugh: “How do you know so much?”

Annie glared at Long Ling: “Everyone acts like this, I have played the role of a wife many times when I was a child, Long Ling-jie jie, you still need to study, your acting skills need to be improved.”

Long Ling nodded: “I will study hard next time.”

Originally, she thought the engagement ceremony would be very complicated, but now it seemed quite interesting.

Next time will be the wedding, but it’s a pity that she can’t marry Long Ling-jie jie.

Annie sat next to Long Ling, quickly found an unused eyebrow pencil, and said to Long Ling: “Long Ling-jie jie, let me draw your eyebrows, I just saw that your right eyebrow is not drawn well.”

Long Ling leaned back in her chair, and let Annie help her touch up her makeup. Long Ling’s eyebrows were already very beautiful, and she only needed to trim them slightly.

Today’s makeup looked brighter than usual, and the eyebrow shape was also different from usual.

Annie looked at Long Ling’s moist and bright cheeks, and ruddy lips, and her heart beat faster.

She quickly took a deep breath, calmed her breathing, and gently helped Long Ling draw her right eyebrow with an eyebrow pencil.

She was drawing attentively when the door of the dressing room opened.

Annie turned her head and saw that the woman who came over was very tall, her long golden hair swaying slightly in the sun, her figure very light and elegant.

Annie couldn’t help but shake her head.

Long Ling also heard the footsteps, and glanced at the corner of her eyes, and found that it was Airilis.

“Airilis, why are you here?”

She originally thought that Airilis would always be in the territory, but she didn’t expect to come to attend her and Annie’s engagement ceremony.

She told Airilis that she was going to pretend to be engaged to Annie.

Airilis initially did not recommend her to do so, but she could understand Long Ling’s decision knowing that Annie’s situation was very urgent.

Airilis walked to Long Ling’s side: “I want to see what you look like in a wedding dress.”

Long Ling joked: “Is it good-looking? I thought you were here to send blessings.”

Airilis looked at Long Ling seriously, as if to engrave her current appearance in her heart: “Very beautiful.”

Long Ling was a little embarrassed by her praise.

After all, Airilis was also a very beautiful beauty in her eyes.

Airilis said softly: “If you need an elf blessing when you get married in the future, you can also come to me.”

Annie couldn’t help but look at Long Ling: “Is this elf Long Ling-jie jie’s friend?”

Long Ling introduced the two to each other: “Her name is Airilis, she is a very good friend of mine, this is Annie, the daughter of my mother’s friend.”

Annie and Airilis nodded to each other, after all, this was just pretending to be engaged, and the three of them knew it well.

Annie continued to draw Long Ling’s eyebrows, and said happily: “Long Ling-jie jie, the eyebrows are finished.”

Long Ling looked at the finished makeup, the eyebrows were drawn very beautifully, and she raised her lips: “Thank you, Annie.”

Annie smiled playfully: “Long Ling-jie jie is marrying me now, it is right for me to dress up my bride.”

Long Ling couldn’t help but shake her head slightly.

For a little girl like Annie, if the first engagement was with an Alpha she liked, she would definitely be happier.

She saw that Long Ling hadn’t put on her veil yet, and couldn’t help but say: “Long Ling-jie jie, haven’t you put on your veil?”

Long Ling thought of it: “It may have been left in the fitting room, I’ll go get it.”

Airilis quickly said: “Do you want me to help you get it?”

Long Ling shook her head: “No, I’ll be back soon. I still need to try it on inside.”

Annie: “Okay, we’ll wait for you here, come back soon.”

Long Ling got up and left the dressing room alone.

She walked on the red carpet, and could vaguely hear the noisy voices of the guests around her.

The maids around her saw her coming out and wanted to help her lift the skirt of her wedding dress, but Long Ling didn’t let anyone help, and went to the fitting room by herself.

She found the lost veil on the table, thin and light, embroidered with pure and flawless roses in silver silk, which looked very beautiful.

Long Ling did not expect that the first engagement ceremony with such a sense of ritual would be with Annie, after all, the dragon she had always wanted to marry was Violet.

But Violet always lied to her, and she no longer had confidence in the relationship between them.

Maybe it’s like her mother said, she can have a good life marrying anyone in the future, it doesn’t have to be Violet.

Long Ling took out a hairpin and pinned the veil on her long silver hair.

Footsteps suddenly came from outside the fitting room door.

She thought it was Annie, and couldn’t help but say, “I’ll be ready soon, Annie, wait for me outside.”
