There is no such thing as dawn in Mero-Petersburg.

The tender moment didn't seem to last long before voices were heard outside the door again.

"Are the guards here again?" asked Heidi.

"No, not so often." Leosley looked at the time and held his forehead with his hand. "I had an appointment with Julius and Luerwei to discuss something this morning."

"Ah?" Heidi glanced at the time and her eyes widened. "It's morning!"

Leosley paid attention to his appearance as quickly as possible, picked up all the documents on the ground, and put away his half-wet coat.

But Heidi didn't have such strong energy. She felt sore all over, like a machine in the production area that had been disassembled and reassembled.

I could feel my calves trembling with every step I took.

"Don't go out for now. Just sleep on the sofa for a while." Leosli brought over a blanket. The little guy had indeed had a hard night.

"It still won't affect your conversation." Heidi said it was okay.

"It's still in the initial planning stage. It doesn't matter. There's nothing I can't listen to." Leosley smiled and touched her face, which looked like a flower just blooming after the rain. "Don't think about me so much."

"Yeah." Heidi didn't lie down either, but just covered herself with a blanket and sat with a cup of hot tea beside her.

Two researchers were invited in. They glanced at Heidi who was drinking tea with her head down, and then started talking to Leosley.

Heidi sat there listening quietly. She didn't understand a lot of the technical terms, but the general idea was that they were discussing building a shelter or something like that on the seabed.

She occasionally stole a glance at Leosley, and the way she focused on her work was really charming, and it was hard not to stare at her.

When he noticed that she was looking back at him, she quickly looked away and secretly raised the corners of her mouth.

The two researchers talked for two hours, and then many other things came up, such as parts procurement, prisoners’ unrest, material procurement for next month, approval of maintenance funds, etc.

Heidi just listened to the fun from the beginning, but sat there with a dazed mind.

But gradually, she began to truly feel how busy the Duke's day was.

Just like a poor student would feel anxious when seeing a top student working many times harder than him, Heidi also felt a little uneasy at the moment, she deeply felt that she seemed a little weak.

In the past, the simple model of exchanging reputation for skills was fine in combat, but it was a bit slow to keep up when dealing with complex matters, and when the skills did not match, there was nothing you could do.

This method of relying purely on luck is simply unable to keep up with the pace of these outstanding people.

In addition to doing his job well, Leosli is also thinking about how to protect the people of Fontaine.

Maybe this is an inspiration for myself. I used to think about exchanging reputation for Mora and skills. Now I should take the initiative to improve my own hard power. Maybe this will give me the confidence to help others.

……

"What are you thinking about?" It was noon, and Leosley finally had some free time. He leaned on the sofa next to Heidi and asked, "How do you feel after listening for a whole morning?"

"Your brain is about to explode. You're amazing. You can handle so many different things at the same time." Heidi looked admiring.

"Practice makes perfect. Sometimes I get distracted when I listen to it too much."

"Then why can't I see it at all?"

"You can see that my acting skills are terrible."

"Oh, it's all acting..."

"Don't exaggerate. I'm not saying that to you. Who would act so hard..." Leosley leaned his head on Heidi's shoulder, closed his eyes slightly and rested for a while, finally feeling a little tired.

Soon he regained his spirits and said, "Let's go and eat on the water."

"Just eat at the franchised canteen. It's convenient and close, and you can even get some sleep when you come back." Heidi saw how tired he looked and didn't want to let him run back and forth anymore.

Leosley listened to this, looked at Heidi's concerned expression, and couldn't help but hug her in his arms, "Little guy, don't feel sorry for a man in this world, including me."

"why?"

"I've seen too much here. Men are like wolves. Once a rabbit feels sorry for a wolf, it will be eaten by the wolf. I'm also more cunning than you think."

"Oh, then I don't want to be a rabbit. I'll be a beast of burden and crush you little wolf cub with one foot." Heidi raised her hand and patted his head, "Crush you to a squash."

"Well, come on, the wolf thinks so too." Leosley smiled and kissed Heidi on the lips.

……

"You are so cunning." Heidi rearranged her clothes.

"A vivid practical class. Did you remember it?" Leosley was very energetic. "It's really time to have lunch."

"Let's go to the water. There's a wolf under the water. It's too dangerous." Heidi shook her head.

……

Heidi stayed on the water. After all, Yingyingyue was still more than ten days away. There were many pedestrians on the road in the afternoon, so she could hand out more flyers for her stall.

Because she was feeling a little weak, she found a hard-working helper.

He was the Midnight Melancholy Pure Love CEO who had a good relationship with Heidi and often wrote to her. It happened that he had a day off today, and Heidi passed by his house and asked him if he was willing to help out, and he agreed immediately.

As long as the president is not in class, he is very enthusiastic about doing these things. He is busy all afternoon. Heidi just sits there and takes charge of the logistics work.

"Boss, would you like some water? Eat some candy to replenish your energy." Heidi would shout this every once in a while. You can't exploit child laborers.

The little boy ran over and took a sip of water. "Sister Heidi's candy tastes better than the ones you buy outside. Sister Heidi is so nice to me."

Heidi looked very pleased, "Oh, I haven't seen you lately, you've become so sweet."

The little boy said flatteringly, “It would be even better if you could show me your other reflections.

"Well, that depends on your performance." Heidi said proudly.

"Okay, I still have a day off tomorrow, I'll call all my classmates to help."

"Be good, I'll take care of the meals and snacks!"

……

A few days passed quickly and Chioriya notified her to try on dresses.

Heidi felt that the fitting was not on the day of the formal dance, so she did not invite Leosley because he was too busy.

Navia has a good relationship with Chizhi, so she goes with them.

"Are you two coming together?" Chizhi was quite curious about Heidi's network of relationships.

"Well, I came to see if your skills have improved. And by the way, to see if there are any new styles." Navia said with a smile.

Qianzhi smiled and said, "Potential customers, I have to entertain them well."

Heidi was taken to the fitting room.

The warm sunlight shines through the glass on the dome into the fitting room, spreading softly. The whole room is decorated in a dreamy way, with all kinds of dresses hanging on the walls.

The fitting room is filled with a light scent of fragrance, which cleverly adds a touch of embellishment.

The evening gown is more complicated to wear, and is divided into the base skirt, petticoat, inner skirt, main skirt and outer skirt.

Two staff members helped put it on layer by layer.

Outside the thick curtains of the fitting room, there are two chairs for the accompanying person to rest and watch the fitting effects.

Navia and Chizhi sat there chatting.

Heidi stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself like a cake blank, being decorated with icing little by little, and the hem of her skirt spread out under her feet like a soft cloud.

She touched the soft texture of the gauze, and a little happiness rose in her heart. She wondered if Leosli would like it when she saw it, but she liked it very much anyway.

Suddenly, the welcome bell on the store door rang.

Navia looked back and said, "Leosley, why are you here? Didn't Heidi say you were busy?"

"Oh, I just happened to be going to Momang Palace to deliver some documents, so I came to see if Heidi was still there." Leosley explained.

"Really? You deliver documents and bring flowers too." Navia pointed out mercilessly.

Leosley smiled sheepishly and tried not to argue any further.

When Heidi heard Leosley's voice, her eyes lit up and she ran to the curtain.

This action shocked the two staff members, "You haven't finished dressing yet, you can't run out like this, it's too rude."

"Oh, I know." Heidi pulled open the curtain a little bit and poked her head out. "Leosley, why are you here?"

"I came to see you. Why didn't you call me on a day like this? I still have some time." Leosli put the flowers behind him, walked closer and said in a gentle tone.

"I think it's just a try-on. You can see it on the official day." Heidi looked at him with a smile.

"I can't wait, I can't wait to see it." Leosley leaned forward and whispered.

He knew that they didn't have much time together, so he cherished every special moment.

"Then wait a minute. I'll be ready soon." Heidi retracted her head.

"Hey, Navia, the scent of the fragrance in my store is not right." Qianzhi looked at the two people whispering as if no one was around, and complained.

"Well, it's too sweet. We need to change it." Navia agreed.

When the Duke heard this complaint, his face turned slightly red, and like a little boy who had just fallen in love, he grinned and stood back beside his chair.

"Your Excellency the Duke, please sit here. Heidi will take a while." Qianzhi stood up and said, "I will dress her up beautifully." After saying that, she walked into the fitting room.

Qianzhi helped to braid a slightly complicated lop-eared bunny hairstyle, matched it with small decorations in the same color as the skirt, looked left and right, and said, "Well, it's almost done."

Heidi looked into the mirror and saw herself in it, her heart pounding.

She took a deep breath and stood by the curtain, waiting for Leosley's reaction.

As the curtain slowly opened...

The two people's eyes met, and it seemed that the sunlight became softer. Heidi's eyes were curved with a smile, but tears were streaming down her eyes.

This is the embodiment of happiness, I feel like I am surrounded by deep love.

Leosli's eyes were red, but he was smiling. In his lake-blue eyes, there was only the figure of Heidi, the girl who was engraved in his childhood memories. He didn't expect that she would grow up to be so beautiful and stand in front of him. The pain of his childhood was smoothed out time and time again by Heidi, and at this moment, he seemed to have no regrets about the past.

He picked up the bouquet he had prepared, walked forward, took Heidi's hand and kissed it.

Then he solemnly handed the bouquet to Heidi and said gently and sincerely: "To the beautiful fairy lady."
