I! Cleaner!

“…”

Did we…get the wrong script?

When preparing to come here to cancel the engagement, Leon had already prepared himself mentally. However, he thought that the princess might flatly refuse, might put forward some harsh conditions, or even coerce and induce, etc.

But the only thing he didn’t expect was that the princess actually chose to “reason” with him, and even launched a confident and strong pursuit of him…

Can this be considered pursuit?

…

“I admit that if I have to make a choice now, then we…are indeed quite suitable…”

The princess who was getting closer and closer squeezed into a corner of the sofa, shrinking like a little wife, Leon withdrew his palm with a will stronger than steel, and continued to resist:

“But I don’t have to make a choice, at least I don’t have to choose now…Your Highness, you are really good, but I am still…”

“Since you are not in a hurry to make a choice now, why are you in a hurry to reject me?”

Faced with Leon’s “stubborn resistance”, the princess did not rush to pursue Instead of hitting hard, he followed the military principle of "surrounding three sides and leaving one side open" and took the initiative to give her a way out:

"I didn't force you to accept this marriage immediately, but I didn't want you to cut it off too hastily.

Lyon, if you are not in a hurry to make a choice, then we might as well maintain the current situation first, get in touch with each other more, and get to know each other better. Don't reject the gift of fate so easily."

"Do you still believe in fate?"

"I didn't believe it before."

The princess smiled and said:

"But since fate has given you to me, I am willing to believe her once."

"..."

Stop hitting, stop hitting I'm really about to surrender...

Faced with the princess who tried to persuade him with force and then flirted with him, Leon, who was losing ground, couldn't stand her wave after wave of attacks and had to raise his hands and surrender:

"Then... let's do this for now?"

"Then let's do this for now."

After successfully repelling Leon who came to regret the marriage and regaining all the lost ground, the princess pulled up the shallow V neckline of her nightgown, then sat up straight, smiled and changed the battlefield:

"In addition, I haven't had time to thank you for helping me find my identity. What do you want about this matter? What kind of thank-you gift?"

"Forget about the thank-you gift..."

After hearing the princess' words, Leon, who was slightly relieved, became alert again and waved his hand:

"I am a cleaner of the Cleaning Bureau. According to the agreement between the Cleaning Bureau and the royal families of various countries, I have the responsibility to ensure the safety of royal dignitaries, so..."

"The thank-you gift for the cleaner can be forgotten, but the thank-you gift for the prince must be given."

"..."

Seemingly very fond of Leon's reaction, the princess leaning on the back of the sofa smiled, then stretched out her white and delicate fingers and probed into the collar of her nightgown.

"Um... I won't bother you anymore."

"Why are you running?"

After holding Leon who was about to leave with a funny look, and putting a little old pendant into his palm, Princess Veronica said softly with some nostalgia:

"This is the pendant my mother gave me... Don't worry, it's not the kind of thing with great commemorative value that requires you to marry me if you accept it. It's just a small wish."

After gently holding Leon's palm and letting him hold the pendant that still had body temperature, Princess Veronica said seriously:

"When my mother gave it to me, she hoped it would bless me with safety and success. Now I give it to you, hoping it can also bless you with safety."

"Thank you..."

After stroking this pendant, which was not an abnormal object and had no special effect, but was quite warm, Leon looked at the princess who had played a trick on him at first, but now seemed particularly sincere. He hesitated for a moment, then said hesitantly:

"In fact, if you just want the Ryan family's inheritance, the support of the Ministry of Highways and the Military, and a seat in the Senate, you don't necessarily have to be with me..."

"Leon, I must get married."

Before he finished speaking, the princess spoke first, staring at him seriously and said:

"This country cannot be handed over to Joshua, he has no talent in this area, so I must be the next queen!

And a stable family and heirs who pass on the royal bloodline are both indispensable conditions for becoming a queen. Since I must marry someone and start a family, why can't this person be you?"

"..."

...

After estimating the progress of the fish-playing and finding that it was basically in place, the princess, who had just been pretending to give in, immediately revealed her true colors and launched an extremely fierce general attack!

"To be honest, I investigated you very carefully before and after you succeeded the Duke of Lionheart."

Princess Veronica took Leon's hand again and confessed her investigation of him. She said with a look of reminiscence:

"Although my plan at that time was just to take back some control of the military after the fall of the Ryan family, I didn't have any other thoughts about you.

But after you proposed to me in public at the inheritance ceremony, I soon found that you were the most ideal candidate for the prince in my heart!"

Looking at the surprised Leon in front of her, the princess spoke her evaluation of him in a gentle voice.

"Leon, you are really good. Not only are you hardworking and reliable, you have a stable personality, you value family, you are also brave enough to take responsibility, you never leave your seriously ill sister, and in order to save her, you would rather risk your life and join the Cleanup Bureau with a very high mortality rate.

After joining the Cleanup Bureau, you are also serious and responsible, brave enough to take on tasks, and never retreat even in the face of great danger. In the sewage incident, you also ran around for the victims, and you have almost no desire for power, and you are not tempted even when facing the position of Duke..."

Ah, this...

After hearing the princess's evaluation of himself, Leon blushed and said a little embarrassedly:

"I'm not that good..."

"And you are very humble."

"..."

"I admit that when I agreed to your proposal, I might have been more for the seat of the Ryan family, but after careful consideration, I am now very sure that you are the best prince I can find. If I let you go, I will definitely regret it in the future!"

Caught Leon and praised him desperately, and expressed by the way After she showed her determination to win him, the princess, who had shown her attitude and courage, suddenly dimmed her eyes and said in a depressed mood:

"I know that you are different from me who can only choose you. In addition to this troublesome woman, you have other choices. It may not be fair to you to tie you to me in advance.

But...but I really don't want to miss this opportunity!"

Staring into Leon's eyes, the princess changed her previous strong and decisive appearance. There was a sparkling light in her bright eyes. She said softly with tears in her eyes:

"This is my only chance to choose a husband based on my own wishes. I admit that I did use some tricks just now, but I really have no choice.

When I heard that you came here this time to find me to cancel the engagement, I was panicked and my mind was a little messy. I subconsciously used the most familiar set of things to keep you...

I...Leon, don't be angry with me, okay? If you reject me, then I...I..."
