What Lucius said made Anthony instantly stiff, and Angus also looked puzzled.

Timir frowned, and wanted to say something, but after Lucius exchanged glances, he lowered his head and drank tea sullenly.

"Guests from afar, welcome to Austin Castle."

Anthony suddenly became grateful to Karenina, and her appearance broke the silence immediately, and the atmosphere immediately became lively.It seems that the title of social queen is indeed worthy of the name... Anthony's mood suddenly became depressed again, these are things he couldn't give Angus.

This dinner made Anthony extremely uncomfortable, as long as he raised his eyes, he seemed to be able to see Lucius' meaningful eyes.Timmel didn't overreact, but the behavior of whispering to Angus from time to time made Anthony really unhappy.

Fortunately, Timmir and Lucius didn't plan to stay in Austin Castle for a long time, it was just a place they passed by, and they would leave the next day.

Anthony was sure he could read the disappointment in Angus' eyes.What's more, during the meal, Lucius and Timmel exchanged food and smiled knowingly from time to time, which fully demonstrated their intimacy and tacit understanding.No matter what Angus's expression was, Anthony had a feeling that he was secretly sad.

After dinner, Karenina dressed up and went out with her servants to attend the ball held by the nobles, while Angus and Timir sat by the fire and chatted about so-called men.

Anthony watched from a distance, not daring to get too close.He was afraid that he would do something bad to Timur because he cared about Angus.

"Are you tired?"

The sudden appearance of Lucius startled Anthony, and he almost lost the wine glass in his hand.

Anthony was silent, the wine glass kept spinning between his fingers.He wanted to deny it, but felt it was unnecessary.

"I don't have any curiosity in this area!" Lucius squinted his eyes and looked at Timur who was smiling. "It's just that Timur said that you have a great influence on Angus, and told me to talk to you."

"What do you mean?" As soon as Angus was mentioned, Anthony immediately became vigilant, and his eyes became very sharp.

Lucius sipped the wine glass in his hand unmoved: "Before you showed up, Angus performed very well, with the demeanor of the city lord, the thoughtful etiquette, everything was perfect. It's because he did so well , Timir felt that he seemed to be trying to force himself. But when you came back, he was different... Don't you think it's strange to call you brother Anthony because of his age and status?"

Annie frowned.He had corrected Angus many times in this habit...but to no avail.In fact, in Angus's current capacity, there is nothing inappropriate to call him by his first name, but Angus insists on calling him Brother Anthony no matter what the occasion... It is really hard to understand the mentality.

But Anthony didn't want to forcibly forbid him, because whenever Angus called him that, he felt a spontaneous sense of joy.

"He actually doesn't like Timer as much as you think..." Lucius turned his gaze back to Timer: "I'm not making excuses for Timer, in fact, the premise for him to like Timer is a woman .”

Anthony pushed back embarrassingly: "Of course I know!"

Yes, Angus didn't hide anything from him, the heartbeat at the masquerade ball, and the strong emotion of deciding to marry a wife... When he knew Timur was a man, he was unbelievably shocked... It's not so much that Angus loves When he fell in love with Timur, it would be better to say that he fell in love with the perfect object shaped in his heart.Because it was the first time his heart was moved, Angus couldn't forget Timur. Even if he knew that he was a man, he had to follow him to the front line with uncertain emotions.

Giving up is helpless!Angus knew very well that he could not intervene between Timur and Lucius... Especially after Lucius left the front line, Angus became more sober.

"Timer thinks that if you don't want to hurt Angus, you'd better hide your emotions." Lucius paused, as if thinking about something, and then looked at Anthony with a strange look. "According to me, if you really like it, even if it's forced, let him face you. Blood relationship can't hinder anything at all..."

Anthony smiled bitterly, but didn't answer.

It's so simple!Don't talk about Angus... He can't even pass his own level!In fact, he has always felt that he has some kind of illusion, or he loves this younger brother too much, otherwise, how can he have that kind of irresistible longing when he is obviously a brother?But whenever he saw Angus, all the hesitation and hesitation were torn to pieces again, even a small frown, Anthony felt a feeling that he could not bear it with his body... This is clearly beyond the brothers Feelings!

Angus' handsome face reflected the firelight, brimming with joy after reuniting with Timir after a long absence.He turned around inadvertently, and saw Anthony and Lucius standing together and chatting not far behind him, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

"Angus?"

The soft voice drew Angus's gaze back.Timir's appearance has hardly changed, but some differences can still be seen.Whether it's the lonely eyes when they parted on the front line, or the indifference seen in the watch temple, all of them no longer exist.Angus could feel that Timur was exuding happiness all over his body.

"Timer, is he treating you well?" Angus was embarrassed not to mention Lucius' name.

"Ah..." Timir responded softly, but did not answer, but there was a touch of purple glare constantly flowing in the black eyes under the radiance of the fire.

There is no need to answer, Angus also knows that Timur must be doing well.He suddenly felt a bit bitter in his heart, and involuntarily moved the wine glass in his hand to his lips.

His friend was also the first person who touched his heart.It's a pity, but it can't be owned by him.In fact, it doesn't make any sense to think about it. He is already married and has his own wife.Although Karenina didn't have any feelings for him, both of them were purely for the purpose of consolidating the prosperity of the family... But Angus didn't feel reconciled, this was the psychological preparation he had made when he took over the position of city lord.

Everything has a price!

As long as Anthony and Andy can live as they please in the future, all of this is nothing!And Karenina is not too bad... At least, she can do all the duties that the lady of the castellan should do.Speaking of it, he owed Karenina even more. No matter how Karenina hinted that she wanted a child, he couldn't sleep with her.

It would be even more perfect if Karenina could like brother Anthony a little more.

Brother Anthony! ...Angus unconsciously looked back at the brother who had been separated from him for many years, but now returned to him.

Anthony didn't notice Angus' gaze. He was talking to Lucius sideways, and his straight back completely fell into Angus' eyes.

Angus felt a mixture of envy and love in his heart.He had seen his brother's strong and powerful body on the front line, exuding mature masculine charm.Even if everyone didn't say it, Angus could feel that many soldiers in the army admired his brother.At first, he thought it was absurd... Then he thought about Timur, and then looked at his brother, and then he had a feeling that didn't seem too strange.

In front of outsiders, Angus must be a responsible city lord.He can not be sensual with other nobles, and he can ignore the so-called social etiquette, as long as he can manage the territory properly and keep his wealth growing, he can be respected.It's not that hard to do!In front of Karenina, he is a husband who must have his own opinion and be able to make up his mind.In front of Andy, he is an older brother who must be a good example... But as long as he is in front of Anthony, he feels that he is still a child who can let go of all burdens and will not be blamed no matter what.

When he met Anthony for the first time on the front line, Angus had an instinctive fear that his brother would blame him for coming to the front line willfully and become his burden.But Anthony didn't. In addition to expressing his concern for Angus, he generously lent his shoulders to Angus to rely on.Even, when Angus confides his unexplainable entangled feelings towards Timur, Anthony still fully accepts it with a very serious expression.

Without ridiculing or underestimating, Anthony encouraged Angus through the most difficult night in his unique way.

When Anthony returned to Austin, Angus used to look for his brother with his eyes.It seems that as long as he confirms that he is still by his side, his heart will become more firm, and all difficulties will be insignificant.

"Angus, you drank too much!" Timmir reached out to cover Angus' glass, with a little worry in his eyes.

Angus licked his lips subconsciously. Tonight's wine was especially delicious. He couldn't help but drank a few more glasses. The slightly drunk feeling came up, which was really wonderful.

Maybe it was the best night of his life!Friends, brother, all by his side!

"I'll help you back to your room to rest." Anthony put down his wine glass, hugged Angus across his chest easily, and then smiled at Timmel and Lucius. "You can do what you want!"

Timir opened his mouth to say something, but Lucius stopped him with his hand: "This is their brother's business!"

Anthony was a little nervous, and looked down at Angus almost subconsciously.

Angus didn't struggle, but relaxed his body, resting his head comfortably on Anthony's upper arm.He seemed to raise his eyes because he sensed that Anthony was looking at him.Because of the drunkenness, the always clear eyes were covered with a layer of water, and the cheeks were also flushed.

Those eyes shook Anthony fiercely. He actually had the feeling that Angus was relying on him very weakly, and his heart was filled with love and guilt at the same time, and the two sides fought endlessly.

The author has something to say:
