Chapter 1696 Are you really Hans?
Hans was having dinner with Tina at a nearby restaurant.
When Hans saw the message from his subordinate that everything was ready, he smiled.
He could finally give Tina an answer.
Tina was a little confused when she saw Hans looking so happy.
"What's wrong? Uncle, why do you look so happy?"
"How many times have I told you, don't call me 'uncle'! It's very rude of you, you know?"
"Okay, uncle!"
After Tina finished speaking, she gave a slightly awkward salute.
This made Hans laugh.
"No amount of delicious food can shut you up!"
Hans scooped up a large spoonful of cake and stuffed it into Tina's mouth.
Tina exploded like a boiling kettle.
"Uncle! Ugh! Ugh!"
Tina was about to speak when her mouth was stuffed with cake.
Those around them couldn't help but smile like doting aunts when they saw the young couple so harmonious.
The social atmosphere in the Great Yan Dynasty was not that harsh.
People have plenty of time to pursue beauty.
Most people are willing to pursue beautiful things.
Therefore, many lovers eventually become a couple.
Just as the two were enjoying their meal, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Hans?"
A woman dressed in aristocratic attire covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise.
Upon hearing the sound, Hans turned his head to look, only to be stunned the next second.
Because he recognized the blonde woman in front of him.
To be precise, at that time I was like a toad trying to eat swan meat.
Not only was he severely humiliated by the blonde woman, but he was also beaten up by her family.
"Bunia, it's been a long time..."
Hans spoke calmly.
The blonde woman had lost her former aloofness and now greeted everyone with a smile.
"Long time no see, Hans. How have you been? Is this your girlfriend?"
"And why do I think you look a lot like Hans, the head of the intelligence agency?"
“She is my wife. I haven’t been doing well lately. My boss has been exploiting me. I finally got a vacation.”
Hans introduced Tina in a very open and generous manner, while also complaining about his own job.
Bunia was somewhat dazed after hearing this.
Life goes on, doesn't it?
You were impulsive back then, and I was a bit arrogant too, but that's all in the past now..."
Bunia spoke to herself, then lowered her head and remained silent.
"I remember you went to the Holy Empire with your father back then, didn't you?"
Hans asked.
"When my father was exonerated, Edward III recalled him, and we returned to the capital of the Holy Empire."
However, this period of good fortune was short-lived. With the start of the war, his father once again led the army into battle, but suffered two defeats and was dismissed by Edward III.
I was also forced to marry a count...
I once thought I would meet my Prince Charming, but later I realized that there is no Prince Charming, no Prince Charming on a white horse, only reality, only bread and milk...
Bunia gave a helpless smile.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Hans opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, because she had changed so much.
If she was an unattainable beauty back then, now she is just an ordinary noblewoman.
Just as the two were having their usual conversation, a man stormed in.
"Bunya! Are you talking to that pretty boy again?"
As the man spoke, he grabbed Bunia and tried to take her away.
Bunia's smile finally stopped, and she abruptly broke free from the man's hand.
"He's an old friend of mine! And I'll say it again, I didn't do anything to wrong you. Everyone in the shop can testify that we were just chatting about everyday things!"
Bunia spoke up, and the other Great Flame people in the restaurant stood up to testify for the woman.
But the middle-aged man in front of him still didn't believe it.
"I don't believe you. Maybe you've bribed all of them!"
I shouldn't have married you in the first place. Your family has declined, and now my family has declined too!
I originally wanted to come to the capital to seek refuge with Marshal Cadis, but Marshal Cadis doesn't acknowledge me as a relative at all. It must all be your fault, all your fault! Nothing good has come of marrying into this family!
The middle-aged man became increasingly agitated, and his harsh words provoked many restaurant patrons to intervene and defend him.
But the middle-aged man was the first to speak out, pointing at the people around him.
"What are you all looking at? Can't I even discipline my own wife?"
"If you're so capable, why don't you marry someone as beautiful as her!"
Hans didn't say anything after hearing this, but instead continued to serve food to Tina and eat his own meal.
Bunya was merely an acquaintance he could talk to, not a friend, and he had no reason to meddle in her family affairs.
But Hans’s nonchalant attitude instantly angered the middle-aged man.
"Hey, you pretty boy! You were trying to seduce my wife, and now you're pretending to be mute?"
Upon hearing this, Hans narrowed his eyes, revealing a dangerous glint in them.
Tina, who was opposite, was the first to stand up.
"Baldy! Who are you calling a pretty boy? Don't you know that the most important thing about a person is politeness?"
"You little wench, I am an earl. How dare you speak to me like that? And do you have any manners?"
"Politeness? I'm talking about being polite to people, not you!"
Tina's words were sharp, and she never suffered a loss.
Bunia looked at the two groups arguing and felt a pang of guilt.
The middle-aged man was furious upon hearing this, and even more vulgarities poured out of his mouth.
But Hans couldn't sit still.
You can insult me, but what do you mean by insulting my wife?
Hans stood up abruptly and then asked the middle-aged man.
Which count are you?
"I am the famous Count of Monte Cristo!"
"Very well, the Count of Monte Cristo, is it? Get ready to have tea with the intelligence agency tonight!"
After Hans finished speaking, he silently offered the Count of Monte Cristo a cup of tea.
Of course, this cup of tea was meant to send him on his way...
For Hans, there's nothing he can't find out, only things he wants to find out.
Hans can only ask, who gave him the title of honorary nobleman in the first place?
If someone like that can become an honorary noble, then I should at least become an honorary duke, right?
Upon hearing Hans's words, the Count of Monte Cristo instantly flew into a rage.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that?"
"I'm not some hammer, go back and wait for further instructions."
After Hans finished speaking, he patted Tina's head and muttered to himself.
"You dare to bully my wife? You're asking for trouble."
Upon hearing this, Tina lowered her head shyly.
Hehe, the older man still loves me...
The Count of Monte Cristo was instantly jealous.
But before he could rush up to confront Hans, several men in black surrounded the Count of Monte Cristo.
The Count of Monte Cristo was about to lash out when he was stunned by the identification the man in black produced.
"We're from the intelligence agency, come with us."
Bonya and the Count of Monte Cristo exchanged a glance, both looking puzzled.
Hans waved his hand, as if to say goodbye.
The intelligence agency only came to take away the Count of Monte Cristo; they did not make things difficult for Bunia.
It wasn't until the Count of Monte Cristo was taken away that Bunies belatedly looked at Hans.
"Are you really Hans?"
"I really am Hans!"
