Beihai brought with him a girl who was actually just an ordinary girl. In terms of looks, she could be quite beautiful with some dressing up.
This world is not lacking in beauties. Sometimes you even see a beauty and are stunned at first glance, but later you feel indifferent, just so-so.
After the initial stunning impression, the rest seems rather plain and unremarkable.
But there is another type, more of a treasure than those pretty types, one that stands out for being pleasing to the eye. The more you look, the more beautiful she seems, the more you look, the cuter she feels.
This kind of work is actually quite simple. For example, the heroine in "Jian Xing" doesn't look so stunning at first glance, even feeling a bit rustic, but she becomes more and more pleasing to the eye later on.
Another representative is one called "Lain," also known as "Lain," who also seems unimpressive at first glance but feels cuter the more you look.
When Beihai brought this naive girl, who came to this place with the most basic fantasies in her heart, the Prince took a liking to her at first sight.
Disregarding all the guests present, ignoring them all, he walked straight to the girl and then extended his hand like a gentleman.
"Fair lady..."
As the invitation was spoken, the lady felt somewhat overwhelmed by the unexpected favor. How to put it? The contrast was too great.
At a glance, everyone here was either royalty and nobility, or came from prominent families; they were either the daughters of generals or the daughters of wealthy merchants.
In terms of beauty, even with some light dressing up, beauty and temperament—to put it bluntly—are things essentially bought with money, unless you are truly naturally beautiful.
Beihai didn't know about this world. Perhaps cultivating some temperament was important here, as finding an ugly woman here was a bit difficult.
Simply because in this world itself, if you look good, you are a good person—at least nine times out of ten, you are a good person. If you don't look good, then at least eight times out of ten, you are a villain.
As for Beihai's original world, there's no need to say much. From childhood, you start getting dental work done, and some eye procedures. The most basic labor will definitely cause calluses on your hands.
Beautiful hands for painting, or elegant fingers for playing the piano, are not something everyone can possess.
With such a comparison, it was completely normal for this girl to feel inferior. But she never expected the Prince to choose her.
The girl's tone couldn't hide her joy. After performing a not-so-standard curtsy, she took the Prince's hand and went to the ball area.
The Prince had found a partner, so the music was about to start, and the entire ballroom began to operate.
Now it wasn't that after the Prince finished choosing, everyone just patted their bottoms and left. Instead, everyone directly mingled together, dancing hand in hand regardless of whether they knew each other or not.
Beihai never expected that this actually succeeded. Or was it that the Prince's taste was a bit unique, wanting to try something different?
Was this the romance the Prince spoke of, or was it that he had seen too many refined ladies from good families?
But success was success. Moreover, this commotion made Beihai think of the Prince, the Princess, and the country girl—was this an alternative version of a domineering CEO?
Thinking this, he tilted his body to dodge some inexplicable girls who wanted to take his hand and dance.
He politely declined each one, then followed the stairs to the side of the King.
The King was now in an excellent mood. He had been hoping for the Prince to get married for so long, and now his son had finally come to his senses.
Although the girl he picked was indeed a bit different from what he had imagined, so what?
He was the King. What did it matter if the girl's background matched or not? He possessed wealth and power, so he didn't need to engage in any foolish political marriages.
"Hahaha, did you see? My son has such good taste."
The King was somewhat excited. Then, as he laughed, he saw Beihai.
"Uh, honored guest, the credit for this success lies entirely with you. Whatever you want, I can grant it."
The King was somewhat familiar, wanting to put his arm around Beihai's shoulder, but then found that height was a hard obstacle. So he gave the Minister a look, had the Minister push a chair over, then stood on the chair and patted Beihai's shoulder.
"I didn't expect it to succeed either. I was just trying."
"True. What is romance? It's nothing more than a boy meeting a girl at the right time.
Love at first sight. Ah, this reminds me of my own deeds when I was young.
This love at first sight seems to have magic, as if destined by fate. After being together, neither side will abandon or forsake the other."
Beihai wouldn't refute this, because in this world, love truly exists.
This is something hard to describe, because after love at first sight, the two will depend on each other. In the end, whether facing danger or the influence of wealth and power,
nothing can separate their love. Instead, it becomes more resilient the more it is tempered, truly standing the test in such a place.
Of course, this doesn't include those who marry their stepmothers, because marrying a stepmother in this world is quite abstract. Out of a hundred or eighty such cases, nine out of ten are bad seeds.
"You've helped me with such a big favor. If you don't ask for something, I'll feel uncomfortable instead.
So, what do you think their future children should be named?"
"The bakery girl and the Prince. Though not a King yet, he will be soon. Let me think... the girl should be called Sophia, the boy James."
"Sophia is such a lovely name. And James sounds very gentlemanly. Good, good."
The King felt these two names were quite special, though he couldn't pinpoint exactly why.
He wanted to ask, but it was hard to bring up. After all, they were just two names. Asking about them might instead cause displeasure.
Besides, the other party wasn't a Wizard. They were just two names.
Just names. There are many people with the same name and surname. Could they possibly carry some heavenly mandate?
Indeed, there was no savior's heavenly mandate. But Sophia would later have connections with many princesses, though it's unknown if this was the one.
After all, Sophia's story is about a King marrying a woman who worked in a bakery, and the King already had the child Sophia when he married that girl.
This ball was particularly successful. Even at midnight, the girl didn't need to flee in a panic. It seemed tomorrow they could send out invitations and invite many people to attend the Prince's wedding.
Instead, Beihai bid farewell to the King and began heading home. After finishing the plot here, the most important thing Beihai wouldn't forget.
After all, he wasn't here to be a matchmaker. He still needed to find the Fairy and that Magic Wand.
The Fairy must have some connection with Ella. It's just that the plot development was supposed to converge with the Prince's side, but now everything was in chaos.
This time upon returning, if there were some changes in Ella, Beihai would stay temporarily. If not, then he could only leave with regret.
