The place where I and Perez arrived with the fresh air of the morning was a large stable on the outskirts of Lombardy.

It was the place where I had been with the twins and Louryl before.

When I and Perez arrived, many eyes caught on, including the nobles who had come and gone, and the employees working in the stables.

"There's going to be a rumor."

Although we announced our engagement, there were rumors people wondered about us who didn't get married in detail yet, so we intentionally took time to go out.

"Let's take a walk on a crowded road for now."

We first walked leisurely along the surrounding trails.

And I ate at a restaurant run by the stable and even ate dessert.

People looked at me and Perez from a distance, gossiping, and didn't come close to talk.

I felt like I was a celebrity.

"Tia."

Then Perez suddenly reached out.

His fingers brushed gently against my mouth.

"What, what is it?"

To be honest, I was surprised.

My heart pounded.

But Perez replied with a strange shrug.

"There's a crumb of cookie on your mouth."

"Well, then you can just say it...!"

As my voice went up, Perez glanced around, sneaking his finger over my lips.

And spoke in a low voice.

"We have an audience, so I have to show it properly."

However, the corners of his mouth are slightly raised up.

He's enjoying this situation.

I gave Perez a look and got up.

"Now that we've shown them enough, let's go horseback riding."

Perez also obediently followed me to the stable without a word.

"Here you are, Lady Florentia. Blanc is ready over there."

An employee caring for Lombardy's horse approached and politely informed.

I've already stepped outside Martha and slowly approached the white horse waiting for me.

"Hi, Blanc Long time no see."

The foal my father had given me for my birthday has grown up and become a horse.

Thanks to the owner who doesn't have a hobby of running horses, we were only going to see each other once in the season.

Blanc flickered lightly, as if answering, blinking his big, gentle eyes as if she knew I was her owner.

"That's a very good word."

Perez came up to the side and said, looking carefully at Blanc.

"I can't believe you don't run such a great horse."

"That's why I'm here to learn."

You should have time to learn how to ride a horse.

I half-shouted sarcastically at Perez, but I felt a little sorry when I saw Blanc's eyes that looked only at me.

"Let's go out to the plains a little bit."

Perez reached out to me saying so.

No matter how mild Blanc was, I had to get on Perez's horse together because it was too much to drive a horse by myself.
