"Yis, are you having fun?"

Iss threw himself into Arthur's arms and acted coquettishly: "Happy, very happy. The city has taken good care of me, and I seem to be fat."

"Is that?" Arthur smiled, picked her up and weighed it, "It seems yes, little girl."

After rubbing Is's hair, Arthur said, "Father is back."

"Dad?" Is was surprised, "Where is he?"

“In the hall.”

The sound of dada footsteps was rapid. Bazel turned around and saw his well-behaved little princess running towards him with a smile.

"Is." Opening his arms, Bazel hugged his little princess.

"Dad! I miss you so much!"

Bazel touched Is' hair and said with a smile: "It seems that my princess is doing well."

"Well, I'm fine, where's dad?"

“It’s good too.”

Then, Shirai Castle followed Arthur in.

Bazel glanced at Shirai Castle and said nothing more.

Yi thought, it was probably because my brother had told his father about the city.

"Come to your brother in the study, Dad has something to tell you."

"Father!" Arthur frowned. For some reason, the voice was a little anxious. "Isi just came back, so let her have a good rest. If you have anything, let's talk about it later."

Bazel looked at Arthur for a while and let out: "Okay, Is, go and rest, you must be tired along the way."

"OK."

After sending Is back to the room, Shirai City followed Arthur to his room.

Arthur sat at the bar, poured himself a glass of wine, and asked Shirai Castle, "Do you want a glass?"

"No." He asked, "What are you hiding from me?"

Arthur sneered and took a sip of wine, "Have you changed your mood when you and Is go out this time?"

“…”

"It looks like, no?"

Shirai Castle still said nothing.

Arthur put down his wine glass and stood up, "I have nothing to say to you, go and rest."

After coming out of Arthur's room, Shirai Castle was faintly uneasy, and the uneasiness seemed to be the result of himself.

Bazel came back, and Is and Arthur were having a meal with him in the evening.

There were laughter and joy coming from time to time in the restaurant, and Is was acting cute and cute, making Bazel unable to stop.

"Our princess is still like a little girl."

"No, Dad, I'm 18 years old and I've grown up."

"Yes, Princess is growing up and can get married."

"Father." Arthur seemed to have been stepped on by someone's tail.

Is puzzled. It was strange that my brother didn't say much about his worries that night.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine," Arthur said, putting down the knife and fork in his hand.

Bazel took a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth, and looked at Is smilingly, "Is, come to my father's study later, Dad has something to say to you."

"OK."

Is did not doubt that he was there and responded with a smile.

Arthur put his hands under the table and clenched his fists quietly.

study.

"Marriage?!" Looking at Bazel's back in shock, Iss fell, "Dad, what are you talking about?"

Bazel turned around and looked at her, "Is, you have grown up and your father told you about this. Don't be nervous, you have seen the other party, Chia Yoshino."

How could it be him?!

"You said, did you say Yoshino?"

"Yes, you've seen it, have you?"

"...Yes." I was so angry that I was confused.

Suddenly he asked her to get married, but after witnessing Jesse's pitiful and unfortunate marriage.

She was so scared.

This day will come so soon.

"Yoshino Chia is a few years older than you. She is very steady and trustworthy. My father discussed it with Chia Yoshino's father and thought you were very suitable."

"Is it suitable for us, or is the interests of the Yoshino family suitable for you?" He spoke bitterly and was immediately scolded by Bazel.

"Yis! Do you know what you are talking about?"

Unexpectedly, my daughter, who has always been well-behaved and sensible, said such words in front of him.

While Bazer was shocked, he felt guilty for saying something to her.

Is lowered his head, tears like beads with broken threads.

Suddenly, the study door was pushed open.

Turning around and looking, she ran towards the person who came with grievance.

Arthur hugged his sister and looked at Bazel heavily.

Bazel turned to sit on the sofa without saying a word.

"Is, stop crying."

"Brother." Is helplessly grabbed Arthur's clothes and shook his head, "I don't want it, I don't want it."

"I know." He felt extremely distressed. He stroked Isi's hair and wiped her tears, "Be good, you go out first, I'll talk to my father."

Is nodded and ran out quickly.

"Father."

"You know, this thing won't change."

Arthur clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "I know, but I just want to postpone the marriage."

"Arthur, this is useless, Is must marry Chia Yoshino."

"Father, I just think it's not appropriate to get Is married now. First, she is only 18 years old, and second, we don't have a complete understanding of the Yoshino family."

Bazel understands what Arthur's words mean.

After thinking about it carefully, he finally nodded, "Then do what you said, but I'll say it again, Is must marry into the Yoshino family and must marry Chiho Yoshino."

"Dongdong."

"Come in."

Arthur walked in.

Is wiped his eyes and sat up on the bed, "Brother."

Standing beside the bed, he clung to Yisi's swollen eyes and raised his hand to touch her eyelids.

"Brother." Is rubbed the back of Arthur's hand, just like when he was a child.

Their mother died early and their father was busy with political affairs, so the brother and sister grew up snuggling together.

"Is, cherish the time you spend with Shirai Castle."

Yi Si suddenly widened her eyes, unable to believe it.

Arthur extended his arms to her, "I'm sorry, Is, you know, we, we never had the right to choose."

Is closed his eyes, tears fell down the corner of his eyes, "Brother, can't you, can't help me? Please."

She begged him.

It's like using a knife to cut his heart.

But, he could do nothing.

Patting Is on the shoulder, Arthur said, "Is, be strong."

Is finally smiled, his face full of bitterness.
