Chapter 979: Chapter 608, how is that young man?
Olivia glanced sidelong.
Her husband was a warrior-class hero, whose physical condition had surpassed that of an ordinary person.
One could only say he was somewhat more formidable than the husbands mentioned by the other ladies.
Who would dare use the term “always” to describe it?
Young and tender.
She only thought that Rebecca was looking out for her young husband’s face.
...
“Hmph, it seems you really like him, you even take care of his face when we’re together, I’m getting a bit jealous,” Olivia said, feigning anger.
Rebecca seriously said, “What I’m saying is true.”
“That must be from your tossing and turning all night, no wonder he looks all thin,” Olivia said, pinching her buttocks.
Rebecca dodged by swaying her waist, “You’re the one, you’re becoming more and more like those ladies, always talking about these matters.”
“You’re the one!”
The two women frolicked in the room for a while.
Fang Hao’s voice came from outside the door.
“Rebecca, it’s getting late, let’s not disturb Lady Olivia’s rest any longer.”
The romping in the room paused.
“Okay, coming out now,” Rebecca called out.
Then, she whispered in Olivia’s ear, “I’m going back now, this outfit will absolutely mesmerize Dordy to death.”
Olivia’s cheeks flushed.
She had changed into evening attire and stockings and put on fine makeup.
Naturally, it was for her husband to see.
Having Rebecca directly point it out still left her somewhat embarrassed.
“Oh, what are you talking about!”
“Alright, I’m going back, you don’t need to come out.”
Having said that, she opened the door and stepped out.
Linking her arm through Fang Hao’s, they walked out together.
…
They got into the carriage.
And started heading back to their residence.
Rebecca, very deliberately, sat on the man’s lap, her arm around his back.
Suddenly, a wave of her scent filled the air inside the carriage.
Who knows what the two women had discussed in the room.
After coming out, her cheeks were rosy, her eyes were dewy, and her voluptuous body radiated allure from every angle.
Fang Hao wrapped his arms around her slender waist and slightly lifted the hem to a gap.
He reached under the thin fabric.
Soft, smooth, and full of elasticity.
“What’s this? You’re so passionate…” Fang Hao whispered near her ear.
If he didn’t know that Rebecca and Olivia had a legitimate friendship, he would have suspected that they had played some little games during this time.
Rebecca exhaled gently and spoke softly, “No, I just missed you.”
“Missed what?”
Rebecca rolled her eyes and gave a light slap.
…
“Did you talk with Dordy?” Rebecca whispered.
“I did, from the attitude he showed when we first started talking, he doesn’t plan to let us enter the Upper House. The previous nomination must really have been just a decoy,” Fang Hao said plainly.
From the very beginning of their conversation.
Even Dordy had no intention of letting them enter the council.
So, Rebecca’s efforts to facilitate the alliance with the Blood Clan turned out to be in vain.
Though an alliance between the Blood Clan and the Federation Alliance was already in the plans.
But being misled by the council’s empty promises, he still felt somewhat uneasy.
Hearing Fang Hao say Dordy’s attitude was bad, Rebecca immediately became anxious.
“He doesn’t agree?”
Fang Hao shook his head and continued, “He didn’t explicitly disagree, I promised to supply the Hall of Justice with ten pipe organs, and he said he would temporarily agree with us, and discuss it internally when the time comes.”
“Dwarf pipe organs? How much are they worth?”
Rebecca knew a bit about weaponry, and the Dwarf pipe organs were quite famous.
Fang Hao reached inside her clothes, spread his fingers, and pinched, “Fifty million.”
Rebecca’s eyes widened, “Are you crazy? Fifty million for him?”
Fifty million was not a small amount.
It would take Lyss City several years to come up with that kind of money.
Moreover, this was just the first negotiation, and already fifty million; what about the other four?
The Upper House was over, but the Lower House still had voting.
This spending had no end in sight.
Fang Hao smiled slightly and said, “Well, preemptive promises are just like his promise to let us into the Upper House, then came a vote for discussion later. Agree first, talk through them all and see how the situation goes. If it doesn’t work, we’ll just play dumb and not give anything. Then you can just say I’m a pretty face who knows nothing and talks nonsense.”
Rebecca looked at Fang Hao somewhat surprised.
This was truly fearless, and it was the first time someone from the Lower House had tried to trick the Upper House.
But then she thought about it and felt it was quite normal.
With Fang Hao’s current strength, Dordy wasn’t much to worry about.
Testing and bargaining with each other were quite normal.
“Okay, okay, since you’ve already promised, I’ll listen to you,” Rebecca twisted slightly and continued, “I’ve already booked an appointment with the Archbishop, you go talk to him before tomorrow noon.”
The Church…
Fang Hao looked thoughtful.
From previous experiences, it was clear the Church couldn’t detect his allegiance.
And it seemed the Archbishop had some bias against Rebecca.
Wearing the “Light Feather Short Sword,” he wasn’t afraid of the church’s interrogation.
Even the church wouldn’t dare to detain him outright, as Silver Wing City was under the control of the Hall of Justice.
Bringing Demitrija along, who possessed the “Ancient Blessing,” he was also unaffected by external influences.
