The words, like a bolt from the blue, exploded in the hearts of several men.
Zong Fang's ears rang with buzzing; he frowned, doubting he had misheard. His previously indifferent demeanor instantly turned into a leaning forward posture as he demanded of Leberli, "Say that again?"
"I said, I will marry Suisui," Leberli stated, word by word.
Carl laughed in disbelief, while Sang Yan's face showed surprise, somewhat unable to recover his senses.
Only Ruka maintained his seated posture, legs crossed, silent.
Zong Fang's chest heaved unevenly; he turned his head to grasp her hand and gritting his teeth, asked, "I need you to tell me in person; did you agree?"
Qiao Suisui's eyes were filled with complex emotions, but this time, she wasn't panicked or guilty. Instead, she nodded straightforwardly.
Leberli stood up and announced to everyone, "That's right, Suisui has agreed to become my queen, and from now on, Auslan belongs to her."
