Chapter 1670 I Give Up
Chu Nan was completely stunned.
Although he knew very well that Elvy had liked him a long time ago, she had never asked such a question so bluntly.
Moreover, Elvy's attitude had changed greatly in the past half a year, causing Chu Nan to think that she had long changed her mind. He did not expect her to ask now.
"This… I…"
"You won't, right?" Elvy smiled and said before Chu Nan could, "The only person you like is Sister Angie Prairie, and the only person you want to marry is her, right?"
Chu Nan could only twitch the corners of his mouth and force a smile. He nodded lightly and tacitly agreed.
Seeing Chu Nan's reaction, Elvy sighed, but the smile on her face was even more brilliant than before.
"In the few years we first met, I still thought that I had the chance to snatch you from Sister Angie Prairie, but after seeing your performance in the Declan Empire, I no longer think so. Heh, Brother Chu Nan, I've given up. I've decided not to think about snatching you from Sister Angie Prairie anymore. You belong to her and no one can snatch you away. In the future, you don't have to worry about me annoying you because of this. Are you happy?"
Chu Nan's expression became strange. He thought for a moment and shook his head before answering, "I don't know. Logically speaking, I should feel more relaxed, but when I hear you say this, I still feel very disappointed."
"This is the greed of you men." Elvy chuckled, "Although Sister Angie Prairie has mentioned to me a few times that she can accept other girls liking you with her and even think it's fine to marry you together, I don't accept it. The man I like can only belong to me alone. I won't share it with any other girl. Therefore, I quit. Since I can't snatch you from Sister Angie Prairie, I can only give up."
Chu Nan frowned, "In that case, why did you become like this during this period of time?"
"Because my parents did not give up." Elvy raised her hand and pointed at the house in the distant farm, "Do you know why Father came here today?"
Chu Nan frowned and thought for a moment, "Isn't he leading the 14th Fleet of the Federation Army stationed on Planet Macaw to reinforce?"
"This is only the reason on the surface, but why do you think he brought me here?"
The scene of General Jonotange chatting happily with his parents flashed through Chu Nan's mind and his expression changed.
"Could it be…"
"You're right." Elvy stretched out her hand with a smile and patted Chu Nan's shoulder. Her expression had already returned to the relaxed state from before, "Father brought me here… Hmm, how do you say this in the traditional language of your Huaxia? Oh, right, I'm here to go on a blind date."
"Is that so?" Chu Nan sighed.
In fact, when he saw General Jonotange talking to his parents and the strange expression on Old Master Xio's face when he sat in the middle, Chu Nan had more or less guessed something. However, now that it came from Elvy, he could confirm it.
"General Jonotange wants to marry you to me?" Chu Nan shook his head, "In the past, I've heard from Dunleavy a few times that your father has warned you many times not to get too close to me."
"That was in the past. The current you is different. Father, he…" Elvy suddenly stopped and her expression dimmed again.
She lowered her head and thought for a moment before shaking her head lightly and whispering.
"Forget it, Father and Mother are doing this for my own good. I have no right to criticize them. In short… Brother Chu Nan, you clearly won't marry me, right? However, Father and Mother think that you actually like me, so they really want you to marry me. Then, what should I do?"
Chu Nan smiled bitterly.
What else could he do?
He had always only treated Elvy as his sister. Moreover, as she had said, he only liked Angie Prairie. Of course, it was impossible for him to marry other girls.
He was even willing to offend most of the Declan royal family in order to reject a fake engagement with Princess Viennelle. How could he agree to General Jonotange marrying Elvy now?
"So you've been deliberately avoiding me for the past half a year?" Chu Nan thought for a moment and asked, "Don't tell me you think that your parents will think that you actually don't like me by treating me coldly and give up on marrying you to me?"
"I originally thought so." Elvy shrugged, "However, from the looks of it, I'm still too naive. Actually, you should know that children like me don't have any autonomy in their marriage. Generally speaking, we have to obey the arrangements of our father and mother and marry the person they need me to marry. However, it just so happens that the person they want me to marry now is you, the person I like. Therefore, they think this is a very good thing to have the best of both worlds. If I marry you, I can satisfy my wish and their wish. Isn't that good?"
"However, this clearly doesn't satisfy my wish." Chu Nan shook his head and revealed a puzzled expression, "Speaking of which, I'm very strange. I think many people know very well what I did in the Declan Empire. You know, General Jonotange and the others should also know. Since they know that I even rejected Princess Viennelle for Angie Prairie, why do they think I'll accept you?"
"Because I'm very close to you." Elvy smiled, "To tell you the truth, Brother Chu Nan, Mother secretly asked me if I've ever slept with you."
Chu Nan could not help but blush.
"Hey, is this a question a mother asks her daughter?"
"No, this is a very normal question. Mother feels that the two of us are very close, so it's not strange for us to have slept together. This might be strange for you Huaxia people, but in us European families, every mother will ask her daughter a question."
Chu Nan sighed helplessly and asked, "Alright, even if this question is very normal, then… how did you answer?"
"I told her we'd already slept together…"
"Hey!" Chu Nan glared.
"Haha, of course that's impossible." Elvy laughed loudly as if she was very happy that she had successfully teased Chu Nan, "Of course I didn't say that. I don't want her to think that our relationship is already so intimate, so I told her that it's a pity that I failed to trick you into bed after using all my methods. I can't even strip naked and lie in front of you…"
"Hey!!" Chu Nan emphasized and his eyes widened.
"There's no need to look at me like that. I really said this to Mother." Elvy was not afraid and still smiled at Chu Nan, "In short, I told her that no matter how I seduce you, you won't be tempted by me. You only have Sister Angie Prairie in your heart and won't accept anyone else. Speaking of which, Brother Chu Nan, do you know? Because of this problem, Mother even suspects that you're gay because you haven't even slept with her, right?"
Chu Nan was embarrassed again.
In fact, it was strange. He had come into contact with Angie Prairie many times and was almost used to being naked, but he had never had the chance to reach the last step. As a lover, it was indeed a little abnormal.
"Of course, it's fine even if you're really gay. In any case, Father and Mother won't mind this problem." At this point, Elvy sighed again, "No matter how hard I work, they're unwilling to give up the possibility of letting me marry you. Now, Father even brought me to you and your family. He knows that I'm very familiar with Uncle Chu and Aunt Yu. He believes that they're willing to accept me. I had no choice, so I still came."
Chu Nan originally wanted to comfort Elvy, but she suddenly had a thought and smiled again. The light in her eyes became brighter.
"I originally did not want to come, but after coming here and seeing you with my own eyes, after hearing you say 'Brother Chu Nan', I discovered that my efforts were in vain. Brother Chu Nan, Chu Nan, no matter what I call you, I still like you, and it's still impossible for you to marry me. Since the result can't be changed, why do I have to wrong myself and force myself to do something I'm very unwilling to do? Am I right?"
In the end, Elvy's voice lowered, but the emotion contained in her voice was undoubtedly stronger. It was even stronger than any "I like you" Chu Nan had heard her say.
Chu Nan was speechless.
He looked at Elvy in a daze and looked at her face that was no longer a "girl". The process of knowing and interacting with her all these years flashed through his mind and he could not help but sigh.
"Elvy, I…"
"No, Elvy, why can't Chu Nan marry you?"
A hearty but pleasant voice filled with sunlight and brilliance suddenly sounded not far from the two of them, instantly washing away the ambiguous but heavy atmosphere between the two of them.
Chu Nan and Elvy were stunned and turned to look in the direction of the voice.
A figure that the two of them were extremely familiar with stood there. Under the sunlight, her beautiful face which was like a goddess was even more beautiful. There was still a carefree smile that the two of them were equally familiar with.
