Chapter 1087 Visit
Qin's words were serious and thoughtful, but Barbara seemed to be listening to them.
There was no way, although Jean said Barbara could leave.
But she knew in her heart that after what happened in the afternoon, it would be difficult for her to escape even if she wanted to.
If she can't achieve her goal despite her own reputation, she will be at a huge loss.
Thoughts flashed through her mind, and Barbara replied without thinking.
"I can't give in on this matter. Instead, it's up to you, sister, to think of it yourself. With your ability, if you want to refuse, you can. What exactly do you think?"
Barbara didn't want to keep the topic on herself. The protagonist of this incident should be Qin.
She stared intently at Qin in front of her, and this time she would not allow the other party to change the subject.
But the next words Qin spoke made her unexpected.
Qin raised her snow-white neck and tightened her eyebrows slightly, as if she was thinking about something, then she spoke after a moment.
"Actually... I personally don't resist political marriage. Although it is different from what I imagined, that gentleman still meets my requirements from every angle."
"Eh? You, you, you...you mean you don't hate that guy named Bai?!"
Hearing this, Barbara was instantly dumbfounded.
If this is the case, then she is not a clown among clowns.
Moreover, once what happened in the afternoon reached the ears of the people of Mondstadt, wouldn't her sister's marriage be disturbed by him?
Qin didn't realize the real reason why Barbara was so surprised, and continued talking on her own.
"I can't say whether I like this or not. After all, I'm an old man now, and it's time to start a family..."
In fact, Qin didn't really have much resistance to the matter of political marriage. It was just that she was in a period of frustration when her love ideals were shattered at the beginning, but she soon recognized the reality.
The kind of love in novels is so easy to come across. Most people still succumb to reality.
But what really puts her in a dilemma is that she is faced with sharing a man with her friends and subordinates.
Lisa was so lazy before, and Yora was so angry.
But these two days, one of them is in better spirits than the other. They come to work every day with a cheerful face. It seems that they have received a lot of nourishment at night.
And every time she thinks about this, Qin has to admire these two guys who work together under the same roof every day and haven't even started fighting yet. Should I say that they are really broad-minded, or is it that the man behind them is so powerful that they can take care of these people at the same time?
The two women took care of each other obediently.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I might consider it... hmm? Barbara, what's wrong with you?"
Barbara in front of Qin suddenly shook her head with a look of despair, like a balloon blown by the wind.
Little did they know that at this time, Barbara had gone crazy inside her head.
Ah ah ah ah ah!
What has she done!
The young pastor pressed her hands on her temples, feeling secretly regretful.
When she thought that not only her sister's marriage might be disturbed by her in the future, but she might even get involved in it, she felt sad in her heart.
You may not be able to call this brother-in-law, but you can let your sister call you brother-in-law.
"No...it's nothing, as long as you think about it, sister."
Barbara suddenly felt dizzy and fell directly on the sofa.
"Barbara? Hello, Barbara!"

Inside the Gunnhild family manor at night.
Frederica sat in front of the window with her long blond hair in a bun, sipping a glass of bright red wine.
As the mother of Qin and Barbara, smooth blond hair is naturally indispensable, otherwise how could she have given birth to two beautiful blond girls.
Compared to her usually serious face, Frederica looked much more relaxed today.
I don't know if it's because of the information she had on hand.
Naturally, every move in Mondstadt cannot escape the eyes of this lady.
"Madam, we have a visitor."
While Frederica was enjoying her evening drink alone, the servant of the manor suddenly made a report.
Hearing this, the woman raised her eyebrows and shook the moonlit wine glass in her hand.
"Oh? Guest, at this time?"
The Gunnhild family's manor is not something you can just come to if you want. Generally, you need to submit an invitation to make a reservation before entering.
Even some family members with low status within the family have to go through this process.
And now at this time point, I came directly to ask for a meeting... The person who came may not understand the rules of the Gunnhild family.
"Yes, he is right outside the door."
In the past, Frederica would have people refuse such untimely door-to-door requests.
But for some reason, she subconsciously felt that today's guest might actually have to be received.
After thinking about it again and again, she chose to trust her intuition.
"I gonna go see."
Frederica walked straight to the door and opened the door in front of her.
And the guest who was supposed to be waiting outside the manor, unexpectedly appeared outside the door at some unknown time.
What caught her eyes was a Liyue face with black hair and black eyes. He looked very young and somewhat handsome.
But what concerned Frederica more than those was that this person happened to appear on the piece of information that had just been sent.
She couldn't help but narrowed her eyes and asked softly.
"May I ask if this is Mr. Bai from Liyue?"
"It's me. I'm here today because I want to pay a visit to my aunt."
Facing Frederica's appraising gaze, Bai Qiyun stood outside the door calmly, not feeling at all how much pressure the Mondstadt dignitary in front of him could bring to him.
On the contrary, when the other party was looking at him, he was also looking at the woman in front of him.
If Qin is already around 25, then the woman in front of her is probably around 43 or 44.
But his face still looks extremely young, and he appears to be in his early thirties.
This was not surprising to him. After all, a mistress of a noble family should take good care of herself.
What really caught Bai Qiyun's attention was the opponent's subconscious tightening of his body. He had seen that posture on many knights. It was a posture to respond to crises and be ready to use force at any time.
In other words, the woman in front of me is not a noble lady in purdah, but a well-trained knight.
Although he did not have the eyes of God, he could still detect the strong skills of the woman in front of him hidden under the dress.
Come to think of it, how could a lady who could raise a daughter like Qin be just a noble lady on paper?
"Come in and sit down."
After looking at her for a while, Frederica withdrew her gaze and welcomed Bai Qiyun in with an almost formulaic smile on her lips.
And during this process, she didn't relax at all.
