Throne Steps

Everyone stared at the movement of Saenz's hand, as if the sight could penetrate the envelope in his hand.The voting results are inside, and as soon as Saenz opens the envelope, the results will appear.

Even though the result had been announced in front of the palace and could not be changed, someone still prayed secretly when Saenz opened the envelope.

Saenz took the letter-opening knife and slowly cut open the envelope.The butler was standing beside him, and the old man would not have left here if he didn't know the result.

Saenz finally took out the paper from the envelope.He seemed to enjoy this feeling of "smothering others to death". Before opening the paper, he deliberately paused to observe everyone's reaction.

If there were only two people present, Li Chen would have rushed to Sheng Sheng and snatched it to see for himself.

Li Chen thinks so, and the others are not much better.They involuntarily exert force on their feet, as if their buttocks just lightly touch the chair and they can rush out at any time.If it weren't for the damn etiquette still restraining them, Saenz would have already been surrounded by people.

Saenz finally opened the envelope.

The others tried to get the answer from his expression a second earlier, while Li Chen went directly to see the butler's reaction.

As long as the butler can't help but glance at the letter...

This reaction must be...!

"Congratulations, everyone."

Saenz finally broke his calm expression, raised a smile, and turned the letter in his hand to face everyone.

"You guys made history."

Saenz, for the first time since the establishment of the league, won the competition.

The royal family has released the voting results, and the king signed the patriarch's conferment order in front of all courtiers, which will take effect immediately.

Saenz and everyone who supported him made history.

That night, Saenz held a small celebration party for the cronies who stayed here.

Although there will definitely be a more formal, more lively, and more well-attended celebration party in the future, the feeling at that time will definitely be different from now.Everyone present here seems to be being hit by waves of joy, a little dazed, a little light-headed, and a little unable to recover.

Saenz asked people to open the most precious wine in this other courtyard, and let the carnival cronies drink as much as they wanted.

But different from his cronies who were blushing with excitement, Li Chen seemed a little calmer than ordinary people.

In fact, he also drank a lot, and he was already a bit over the top with a fairly good capacity for alcohol, and even the roots of his ears were turning red.But compared to those cronies next to him who couldn't help themselves and kept chatting, Li Chen was particularly quiet.

He was sitting on the left hand side of Saenz, which is supposed to be the hottest topic, but even if he had the ability to say a few words, he quit the chat interaction, and the cronies who were drinking happily didn't think there was anything wrong.

He clinked glasses with the cronies next to him, and after taking a few sips, he put the wine glasses aside, and quietly ate the delicacies that Sarnst ordered someone to prepare for the celebration.Saenz glanced over him, then picked up his wine glass and touched his lightly.

"..."

Li Chen looked at the wine glass, then at Saenz.I don't know if it was intentional or because of the influence of alcohol, but his movements seemed a little sluggish, and his expression was also lazy.

He picked up the wine glass and took two sips with Saenz.

Saenz approached him, lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Why, not in a good mood? Still uncomfortable?"

"...It's okay." Li Chen smiled, "Maybe it was because I was too nervous before, but after drinking so much alcohol suddenly, I felt a little dizzy."

Saenz felt like it was a lie.

But Li Chen was already drunk, and this casual tone was indeed his performance after he started to get on top.

Saenz tentatively said calmly: "If you hadn't drank so much, I thought you felt nothing."

"...You're wrong, I'm actually very happy, even happier than many people here." Li Chen shook his glass, staring at the liquid in the glass, "Leidi Alliance, the two top strategists , I actually succeeded in my scheme... It's really a joy to think of it."

The two strategists refer to the Patriarch, oh, Vagcheno, who will soon be the previous Patriarch, and the Great Lord who wants to muddy the water but is used instead.

It is indeed a pleasure to count these two people at once.

However, Li Chen said that he was happy, but there was no such excitement on his face.When Saenz stared into his eyes, he could find some unusual brilliance from inside.

Saenz smiled: "You've been meddling in these people's affairs for a long time, and now you're just starting to be happy, isn't it too slow?"

"It's different." Li Chen turned to look at him, "I used to just participate in it..."

This time it was the mastermind.

This also proves that Li Chen is not only a person with strong executive ability and can use his brain on a single task, but also a person who can see the overall situation, clearly deduce the causal sequence of all developments, and dare to take action to promote change.

Saenz understood what he meant, and raised his cup again: "Indeed, it seems that I want to toast the hero?"

Li Chen smiled, and clinked glasses with him again: "Don't flatter me, I know I'm just talking big. This thing can be done because of your ability, oh, maybe you have to count Sean's hard work. Me . . . to be happy with myself."

"I'm not flattering you." Saenz took a sip of wine, then slowly put down his glass, looked into Li Chen's eyes, "I can't live without you."

Li Chen looked away and sneered: "Your Highness, are you drunk?"

Playing hooligans here at this time?

Saenz lowered his eyes and smiled, and didn't answer his words, but asked, "I forgot you just said you were dizzy, so do you want to go to rest first?"

Asking people if they want to go to bed just after playing hooligans, Saenz's words are too easy to make people think wrong.

"...just wait a little longer." Li Chen glanced at him defensively, wiped his face, "Now that everyone is so happy, it's not good for me to leave, just stay a little longer."

"Well, it's good that you know what you want." Saenz didn't force him to do anything, "However, if you really insist on it out of scruples, it's really unnecessary."

Of course I know.Li Chen glanced at him and answered silently in his heart.

Li Chen still left the table first, he seemed to be too drunk at that time.At night, he suddenly felt very hot and wanted to go to the bathroom, so he woke up from his sleep.

It is rare to be woken up by the heat in winter.

As soon as he woke up, Li Chen felt the weight on his body and the heat source close at hand.He woke up suddenly from the chaos, and almost missed a punch, but the opponent moved before him.

"woke up?"

Saenz's voice came, low, magnetic and hoarse.He patted Li Chen with his arms around Li Chen, his tone still sleepy: "Uncomfortable?"

Li Chen simply admired his natural attitude: "Is this the guest room? Why are you here?"

"Because you are here." Saenz replied vaguely, "Go on to sleep if you have nothing to do, I have a headache from drinking."

Li Chen didn't care about his headache, he struggled to get up: "I'm going to the toilet."

"Hmm..." Saenz touched the magic crystal lamp beside the bed, "Be careful not to drop it."

Li Chen did suffer from night blindness, but he wouldn't fall on the ground after turning on the light.He climbed out of bed and went to the bathroom attached to the room to solve the problem.When he slipped out, he found Saenz sitting up.

Although he was sitting on the bed and taking a nap.

It's amazing, when you are so sleepy, you can still react and want to take the opportunity to slip away... Li Chen thought about it, and slowed down the pace of walking back, looking a little hesitant.

"What are you dawdling for?" Saenz opened his eyes, "Aren't you sleepy?"

Li Chen simply stayed where he was: "I don't think this is appropriate."

He drank too much on purpose tonight, just to avoid the possible "bad intentions" of Saenz.Among other things, he fell asleep before Saenz, so it is impossible for Saenz to miss the "rape corpse", right?

However, Li Chen still murmured about Saenz's face, that this pure white man had climbed onto the bed in the guest room to sleep in a grandiose manner!

Li Chen began to regret that the punch he just woke up did not hit.

Saenz didn't bother to argue with him about whether it was appropriate or not. He rubbed his temples and said, "I don't want to use violence to solve the problem now. You'd better go back to sleep and don't give me any trouble."

In the end who is "extraordinary"!Saenz's ability to strike back is really powerful even when he is unconscious.Li Chen weighed the consequences of being obedient and being caught and thrown back after rushing out now... Sadly, he found that it would be better to follow Saenz now.

Saenz said again: "I won't do anything to you, I'm going to be sleepy...can you hurry up?"

It's all nonsense to be drunk and have sex. Saenz just wants to fall asleep quickly after drinking too much.

He managed to open his eyes again, seeing that Li Chen seemed to be about to come back, and added: "Your five-star mission, I will definitely help you find a way and do what you say. If it doesn't work, just follow your ideas It’s okay to expose the spirit.”

Li Chen was taken aback for a moment: "You know I'm thinking about making the elves..."

"I don't know, but I can probably guess your train of thought..." Sarn paused, then said slowly, "I can't turn my head now, can you hurry up and let me continue to sleep peacefully?"

Li Chen finally decided to obey him.Generally speaking, as long as Li Chen made a decision, he would not hesitate any longer.So, he quickly returned to bed.

When he lay down, Saenz also lay down, intending to return to the hugging position before he woke up.

"Don't come here, you'll die of heat." Li Chen pushed his hand away, "I just woke up from the heat."

Saenz no longer refuted, and lay back on his seat.

However, when the two woke up the next day, how could they sleep head to head next to each other again? That was another little "accident".
