The demon steward said tiredly.
"Governor, please look at my two daughters. They are fairies from heaven, worthy of the unique magic shoes in the world!"
The stepmother came over flatteringly.
The elder sister and the younger sister were fighting over trying on the shoes and forcing their feet into them.
But the elder sister couldn’t put it on and the younger sister couldn’t take a step.
Seeing his beloved shoes being treated as a toy by the two men, and coupled with his great disappointment this morning, the Governor was furious.
"Damn it! You guys have ruined my sincerity! Come on, arrest all of these troublemakers!"
The Governor ordered.
The soldiers dragged the stepmother and sisters down, intending to punish them severely.
"Wait, Governor, we didn't mean to offend you!"
The stepmother panicked.
"Did you remember to greet me, the Governor General of the Demon Tribe? This alone is enough to violate the current diplomatic law of the Protoss Empire. Go to prison and spend this winter!"
Lanci ordered them.
At the critical moment, the gray girl arrived panting.
"Your Excellency the Governor, I am here. I am the girl you have been looking for!"
The gray girl shouted across the guards of the Governor's Mansion.
"Yes, yes, she is also our child, let her try too."
The stepmother quickly said to the Governor.
"I don't want to believe you anymore, and I'm already tired from today."
The Governor covered his forehead and spoke weakly to the noble lady who was talking nonsense.
Just hearing Talia's voice made him feel a dull pain in his head.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. Why did he try so hard to save the situation today?
"Give me a chance, Governor!"
The gray girl did not give up and kept shouting.
"That's enough. The person I'm looking for is definitely not someone like you who is reckless and skinny like a refugee! She is very beautiful. She ate all the cakes at the banquet yesterday. She has an ideal and healthy body shape for now. She looks to be around 20 to 25 years old, and has a mature and older charm!"
The Governor pointed at her, who was covered in dust, and scolded her.
"..."
Talia's hands suddenly creaked, making a sound of joints moving, and the air around them began to feel cold.
She remembered the lines were roughly this, but not in such detail.
She took off her shoes and made a throwing gesture towards Lanqi.
"It's you...? It's really you!"
The Governor was overjoyed and recognized the Gray Girl immediately.
"..."
There was silence below the stage.
His expression changes so quickly.
“Is this the level of a veteran actor?”
“Was the actor scared at that moment?”
"I don't think so. Since the previous scene was changed, it would be reasonable to slightly modify the way of recognizing the gray girl here."
……
Everyone in the Governor's Mansion stood where they were, looking at the male and female protagonists.
Originally, the gray girl was supposed to try on the magic shoes and make sure they fit perfectly, and then the governor could recognize her.
How did you recognize it so immediately?
Everyone was a little slow, but soon caught up with the crowd's exclamations.
The Governor stepped forward quickly and stood in front of the gray girl.
He took the gray girl's hand affectionately.
"The sky is passing by in a hurry, time is passing by in a hurry, how can I keep you here? When I woke up from my dream last night, I realized that there was nothing beside me. Except for that shoe, I don't know how to find your footprints? Now that you and I meet again, how can I let you leave again?"
After the two finished singing and dancing.
"My lovely girl, I have no appetite, only you in my mind."
The Governor said to the gray girl.
"Yes, me too."
The gray girl's eyes were filled with tears of happiness.
The crowd erupted in deafening cheers and applause.
The ministers and the housekeeper were also smiling.
"Good, good! It's a match made in heaven, a perfect couple!"
The guests all congratulated him.
The stepmother and sisters looked pale and didn't even dare to apologize.
"Gray Girl, no, Madam Governor! We are wrong, please forgive us! We are so blind and heartless!"
She knelt trembling.
"Stepmother, sister, although you have been mean to me for many years, I have never felt any resentment in my heart. Even if you have locked me up, I am willing to share today's joy with you. I hope that in the future, we will have no more complaints."
Gray Girl is tolerant and generous.
The stepmother was moved to tears.
The Governor looked at the gray girl with a smile and admired her even more.
"In any case, you have been charged with illegal detention. You should finish your jail term this winter. A good life starts with the rule of law."
He added.
The atmosphere was warm and touching.
The cheerful finale march played.
The story of "Holy War Romance - Cinderella" has also come to the final scene.
In the Governor's Mansion.
The Governor invited his beloved girl to have breakfast with him and brought her a sumptuous meal.
At the dinner table, the Governor was no longer grim.
He admired the beauty whose mystery was solved, as if he had found a treasure.
"Girl, you are so cute today..."
Lanqi still felt his scalp tingling when he recited this line again after a long time.
"You're so cute that I want to eat you instead of breakfast."
"!!"
Talia's face started to heat up when she heard this.
The second time she heard Lanqi say this, her heart beat faster than last time, much faster!
"Can……"
Talia took two deep breaths before slowly reciting the heroine's lines:
"Can you wait until I finish breakfast?"
After she finished speaking, she picked up the smooth matcha cheese mochi and put it into her mouth.
“Fu…!”
Lanqi suddenly raised his hand to cover his mouth.
This time he really couldn't hold it in.
Just as a storm began to surge in Lanqi's heart, Talia's cold eyes moved closer to him, and her light breathing moved closer to him.
She observed Ranchi.
"Does that mean it's okay?"
Lanci maintained an actor's sense of conviction and delivered the line with conviction.
"I've finished eating. What did you just say?"
Talia finished chewing the mochi and looked up to ask.
……
"Wow, she's amazing. I remember that in previous performances, the heroine always had a transition to this part, which meant she had finished eating. This time, the heroine really ate."
The audience was amazed by today's stage effects.
"How on earth did she manage to finish it so quickly?"
“I’ve heard that Director Abigail is very strict in directing, but I didn’t expect that she would rehearse the actors to this extent in the public version.”
VIP seats.
"I can't come..."
Abigail buried her head and muttered to herself in confusion.
Her script clearly stated that all she needed to do was to give a transition.
But the heroine ate the pastry so fast that she couldn't see clearly.
