Chapter 383

"How disgusting! Let me go!" Losweiser twisted her slender waist symbolically.

"Okay, but you have to promise me one thing."

"What?"

"Come on a date with me."

92. Sorry, we only have one room left.

Oh my god, that bastard actually asked me out.

It's truly a case of a heifer fighting feminism—undefinable awesomeness!

The Queen was secretly delighted, but outwardly she remained calm and composed.

Just kidding, I don't really want to go on a date with him, so why should I act all happy?

Besides, if this guy knew that he was happy because he was going on a date with him, wouldn't he get all cocky?

Moreover, before the formal date, Losweiser wanted to solemnly declare...

"This time, you were the one who asked me out, right?"

The words 'you' and 'I' were emphasized.

It seems Her Your Majesty the Queen is still very concerned about who takes the initiative in this sham marriage.

Leon, hands in his pockets, nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, it's me, it's me."

Losweiser snorted smugly, "That's fine, so you won't say later that I was the one who pestered you to go on the date."

"Tch. Well then, let's hurry up and go, we can still grab some dinner."

"Um."

Losweiser thought the meeting targeting Constantine would continue until tomorrow, so she told Anna before leaving that she would be home no later than tomorrow night.

But I didn't expect it to end in just one day.

It was probably Leon's final proposal that put pressure on those old guys who wanted to seize the Primal Power for themselves, so there was no need to drag the meeting out any longer.

Perfect timing! Losweiser and Leon can take this opportunity to relax in Sky City for one night before heading back on time tomorrow.

They left Twilight Tower and strolled side by side through the bustling streets of Sky City.

The evening breeze was slightly cool, and Leon took off his coat and draped it over Losweiser's shoulders.

Because of a meeting, she was wearing a formal white suit, which offered neither wind nor warmth, making her susceptible to catching a cold during her evening walk.

Although it's almost impossible for the Dragon King to catch a cold, as the Queen's fake husband, he still has to do some pretense.

Losweiser, draped in Leon's coat, felt the lingering warmth of his body on the lining, and a slight smile played on her lips.

"This time, they were quite self-aware."

"I just don't want you to use this as an excuse to say that I'm an unqualified fake husband."

These days, people are even bringing up whether their "fake husbands" are competent or not, just to maintain a facade of integrity.

General Leon is truly a ruthless man who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

"Snort."

A soft hum, tinged with a hint of arrogance, yet retaining Losweiser's unique cool and aloof tone.

The couple continued walking.

The topics of conversation were also very diverse and imaginative.

"By the way, at the beginning of this secret meeting, there was a host who said he was a servant of the Twilight Tower Master. Do you know who this Twilight Tower Master is?"

Having fought in the Dragon Slayer Army for so many years and having been taught a great deal about the history of the Dragon Race at the Dragon Slaying Academy, Leon had never heard of this so-called Twilight Tower Master.

But someone who can establish an absolutely neutral city like Sky City and summon so many Dragon Kings to participate in a secret meeting must be a very special character.

After all, neutrality requires the foundation of neutrality.

If you're just a nobody, who cares about your position?

"I don't know much about it."

"The Tower Master is a very mysterious person," said Losweiser. "It is said that he founded Sky City, and as for when it was founded... it has existed for much longer than the Silver Dragon Clan."

Leon was slightly surprised. "Oh, it's been that long. Did he create a neutral city like Sky City just to give the Dragon Race a place to relax and retire?"

Losweiser thought for a moment, then shook her head. "I'm not really sure either. I just heard from the elders of my clan when I was a child that Sky City is much more than just a neutral city."

"But for thousands of years, no matter what wars or natural disasters or man-made calamities have occurred within the Dragon Race, Sky City has always maintained an absolutely neutral attitude."

"So... it's probably just some folk tales." She lightly tapped the cobblestones with her high heels, making a crisp sound.

"I really like this city. Taking a walk here with someone important to me feels very relaxing."

Losweiser gets very absorbed when discussing serious or formal topics.

So much so that I accidentally blurted out what was on my mind.

Leon raised an eyebrow. "What did you just say?"

"Hmm? I said this city is very neutral, but there are many folk tales about it. What's wrong?"

"Not this sentence, but the sentence following this one."

"Huh? Me—"

Losweiser opened her mouth, but her brain acted a step ahead, and she immediately realized that she had let something slip.

Fortunately, her Silver Dragon race is known for its speed; she can react to the speed of lightning, but not to the speed of a face change?

"What did I say? I didn't say anything."

"You said it, you definitely said it."

Leon was quite certain, "You said it would be very relaxing to take a walk here with someone important to you."

The beautiful woman blushed, her fingers unconsciously tightening around the collar of her coat, and retorted,

Even if I told you, how can you be sure that the 'important person' I'm referring to is you?

Leon took a half step back and shrugged.

"Any other acquaintances here besides me?"

"Hey you! -- Seriously, I can't be bothered with you!"

She slipped away in her high heels, her steps defiant as if her schemes had been exposed.

Leon followed her at a leisurely pace, standing in the long shadow cast by the streetlights, keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

In the evening, after finishing dinner, the couple continued their walk to aid digestion.

"Speaking of which, why did you stay for your date?"

Although she was delighted that the man had taken the initiative to ask her out, she couldn't rule out the possibility that he had some ulterior motives.

So it's better to ask clearly.

Leon blinked, thinking to himself that the real reason was actually a little difficult to say.

Now that his daughters are on summer vacation, they spend all their time at home with him. In the mornings, he teaches Noa to practice magic, and in the afternoons, he helps Mu En and Xiao Guang preview the textbooks for the next semester.

Throughout the day, the only time he could be alone with Losweiser was at the dinner table and after returning to his room at night.

Although the frequency of submitting assignments did not decrease, physical communication could only remain at a superficial level.

He wanted to spend quality time with Losweiser, with no one else around, just the two of them.

I stopped thinking about the mountain of work documents and the restless Lao Kang, and just spent time with the people I considered important.

As Losweiser just said, that would be very easy.

Coming to Sky City provides them with a good opportunity to be alone.

Leon didn't want the date to end so quickly, which is why he suggested staying longer.

He was reluctant to admit it, but it was the truth: he was becoming more and more attached to the cunning Dragon Queen beside him.

I also increasingly want to... stay with her forever.

Back to reality, Leon shrugged nonchalantly.

"Seeing how much pressure you've been under lately, I thought you could take this opportunity to get out and have some fun and relax."

He paused, then added, "Anyway, Anna will handle your work, and your daughters will be taken care of, so there's no rush to go back."

After hearing the explanation of the first half of the sentence, Losweiser was not emotionally affected.

But the mention of her daughter in the second half of the sentence made her realize something.

Since the three little ones started their summer vacation, she and Leon have never had a moment's rest; they've been constantly busy.

He finally managed to go out, and it was under the pretext of Dragon King Secret Meeting.

After the Meeting End, Leon took the initiative to suggest a date...

In conclusion, the Queen stirred slightly, and she quickly came to a conclusion:

A married man wanted to be alone with his wife.

Sigh, no wonder Ischa is a staunch advocate of remaining single; once she's married, she doesn't have much freedom anymore.

Losweiser smiled faintly.

"Okay, then relax and have some fun."

She saw through Leon's true thoughts, but she didn't expose them.

Firstly, it's to save face for the immature teenager;

Secondly...

Well, a married woman also wants to spend some time alone with her husband.

But it was already late, and neither of them had the habit of walking around at night, so finding a place to sleep became their immediate priority.

They arrived at a hotel.

Stepping into the hotel, Losweiser suddenly remembered what Ischa had teased them about that afternoon in the Twilight Tower conference room:

"The feeling of home is completely different from that of a hotel!"

That damned red dragon! He's never even been in a relationship, yet he's got a whole repertoire of slutty lines.

Is this what they mean by strategists not going to the battlefield?

Losweiser shook her head, trying to banish the jumbled thoughts.

It's just a hotel stay, there's no need for all those fancy things!

The couple arrived at the hotel reception.

"Welcome, gentlemen. We have king-size beds, waterbed rooms, and various themed suites. What kind of rooms would you like to stay in?" the waiter said enthusiastically.

The couple almost had PTSD when they heard about waterbeds and themed suites.

After swallowing in unison, they said in unison,

"Two rooms!"

The waiter was taken aback, not understanding what was going on.

Based on her many years of experience in the industry, the two people in front of her should be a couple—or even a married couple—and perhaps even a couple with children.

But why stay in two rooms when you're out "enjoying yourself"?

The two people exchanged a glance, then quickly looked away.

Leon's inner monologue: Inviting me to a date has already crossed my line. I absolutely cannot stay in the same room tonight, otherwise the Dragon Queen will definitely think she has me under her thumb!

The Queen's inner monologue: I told you about two rooms as a test, to see if you could be any more proactive. I didn't expect you to suggest two rooms too! Fine, fine, that's how we'll sleep tonight! Don't even think about getting into my room!

The waiter scratched his forehead. "Ah, okay, two rooms are fine, I—"

"Wait a minute, I need to use the restroom," Leon suddenly said.
