Chapter 28: Hugging and Cuddling in Public
Come in?
In where?
They looked up and were shocked to find themselves standing beneath a tall building with a sign that readāCentral Empire Civil Affairs Bureau!
Why did Tangtang bring them to the Civil Affairs Bureau?
Could it be… to get married?!
The two instantly panicked. For a moment, they were excited, shocked to the point of their scalps tingling, yet also sorrowful, heartbroken to the point of bleeding.
Tangtang.
We can’t…
They were about to become prisoners; they didn’t deserve her at all!
But the fact that she had them in her heart and was willing to accept them was already the greatest fortune of their lives!
Su Miantang watched their expressions change unpredictablyāshock, excitement, conflict. She leaned in slightly, raising her delicate brows. “What are you thinking about? You don’t think… I brought you here to register for marriage, do you?”
Wait, was it not?
Crack. All the beautiful fantasies and painful struggles in Fred and Enzo’s minds shattered instantly, turning into unparalleled embarrassment.
They had flattered themselves?
“Of course not, haha~” Su Miantang laughed. “Hurry up and go in, we have important business to attend to.”
…The brothers’ faces instantly exploded with red.
They followed closely behind the girl like two ostriches, wishing they could bury their faces in their clothes.
Truly, it was too humiliating.
They had known Tangtang for less than a month. Although they got along happily, they were far from the stage where she would actively request marriage, especially under these circumstances.
Their brains really had become silly from being locked up.
“Hello, this is my appointment.”
Walking into the hall, Su Miantang handed the application form to the front desk staff. The staff member reviewed it carefully and noticed the Guardian signatures were missing. She stood up and asked, “Respected Miss, are the Guardians you’ve chosen the two gentlemen behind you?”
“Yes.”
“Then please ask them to come over and sign.”
“Okay.”
Su Miantang turned around and signaled them, only to see Fred and Enzo standing there, completely frozen.
Guardians?
What was that?
“It means that an orphaned female under the age of 25 can apply to the state for two male Guardians to guarantee her basic livelihood. And in order for these two Guardians to better fulfill their duty of care, they are not allowed to marry during this period, otherwise, it would violate the Constitution.”
“In other words, you can refuse the marriage with the Princess now.”
Su Miantang curled her lips, waiting for them to show happy expressions. But one second, two seconds, three seconds… several minutes passed, and the two remained indifferent, as if they had truly turned stupid.
“What’s wrong? Aren’t you hapāAh!”
Before she could finish speaking, they suddenly rushed up and hugged her tightly.
This time, it was Su Miantang’s turn to blush.
She, an eighteen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth, was actually hugging and cuddling with men in broad daylight. And the key point was, there were two of them!
This was too…
“So happy, aren’t they?”
“How sweet~”
Around them, couples coming to register cast envious glances their way. A handsome male and a beautiful femaleāthey were truly a perfect match!
And those two males were holding the little female in their arms so tightly, with such power, as if they wanted to merge her into their blood and bones. It was obvious they loved her to death. Unlike their own males at home, who were as well-behaved and stiff as blocks of wood, understanding nothing of romance!
Fred and Enzo’s actions were entirely subconscious, without any thought or sense of propriety. Their bodies and minds were completely submerged in immense joy.
They could refuse the Princess’s marriage. They could continue to be with Tangtang!
This wasn’t a dream, was it? Really, not a dream?!
Had Tangtang been thinking of ways to save them these past few days? How could she be so good? So wonderful. She was the most beautiful existence in the world.
They loved her to death!
Fred and Enzo squeezed their eyes shut, holding the little female in their arms deeply and for a long timeāso long that Su Miantang was about to suffocate.
She extended a fingertip and poked the man’s hard chest, reminding him, “Ahem~ You guys, it’s t-time to sign.”
She didn’t even dare to look at the staff member’s eyes.
If I said they were just doing this out of gratitude, would you believe me?
Next came signing, taking photos, stamping seals, and receiving the Guardian Certificates. Fred and Enzo were like they were on stimulants; their grins almost reached their ears the entire time.
Su Miantang was infected by their smiles as well.
She called them into the aircraft and mysteriously closed the door, making a request. “Um, can you transform into your beast forms?”
Transform into beast forms?
The brothers looked at the closed door, the narrow space, and the ambiguity of two males and one lone female with such a suggestive request. Their faces couldn’t help but redden again.
Did Tangtang want to play with them here? Would it be too crowded? What if the noise was too loud and people outside heard…
Thinking this, they still expectantly transformed into their beast forms, posing in their most elegant and handsome postures, waiting for her favor.
Unexpectedly, under their incredibly shy gazes, Su Miantang took out two gift boxes from behind her back.
“Ta-da~”
“These are gifts for you. Thank you for becoming my Guardians starting today. I’ll be troubling you two officers to take care of me in the future~”
Gifts?
So that was it…
While a trace of disappointment flashed through their eyes, they wanted to refuse. She was the one who saved them; if anyone should be giving gifts, it should be them.
“Don’t move.”
From the first gift box, Su Miantang took out a bracelet and put it on Fred.
“It was meant to be a bracelet, but looking at it now, why does it look more like an anklet?”
Fred lowered his head, looking at the white chain looped around his sharp claw. It was composed of five-petaled Tianshan Snow Lotuses, and it was even suffused with her faint body scent, fragrant and alluring.
His heart felt as if it had been firmly lassoed as well.
Immediately after, she took out a silver collar from the second gift box, engraved with Arctic scenery and Dryas patterns, and put it on Enzo.
Enzo narrowed his eyes happily, his tail wagging almost to the sky. His expression seemed to say: Wearing Tangtang’s collar, I am Tangtang’s dog from now on!
“So handsome.”
Su Miantang couldn’t resist fluffing the fur on his head.
Just like a big dog!
“Do you like these gifts?”
“We love them!”
The brothers transformed back into human form and dropped to one knee in unison. Taking her hands, one on the left and one on the right, they planted a kiss on the back of her hands. It was as if they were branding a mark of loyalty, their expressions solemn and devout.
āWe promise, as Guardians, to forever take care of and cherish Tangtang, making her the happiest little female under the heavens. This vow is unwavering and faithful until death!
Royal Palace, Fengyang Pavilion.
“What’s the situation?”
Princess Catherine lay lazily on a massive black panther. extending her long, exquisitely manicured nails to pick up a peeled crystal grape from a servant and putting it into her mouth.
“Have the court summons been delivered to the Earl’s Estate? What was the Twin Stars’ reaction?”
