Ron and Diane left as like as two peas. After a few minutes, he returned to his home for sixteen years, and other houses in the Whorf manor. His house was also renovated, but when he walked in, he found that the furnishings in the house were not changed, they were all the same.

The house was clean, and it was clear that it had been cleaned all the time he had been away.

"Diana, if you're tired, sleep in bed for a while. I'll go to the patriarch. I'll be back before dinner." Ron takes Diana to his bedroom to settle her down.

"Well, all right." Diana, though a little reluctant, nodded obediently.

Ron went out quickly, and a few minutes later, he came back to head Bryan's house.

How time flies Brian looked at Ron and sighed, "in a twinkling of an eye, it's almost a year since you officially became a summoner."

"Patriarch, did I disappoint you this year?" Ron is a little upset because he feels that the clan leader Bryan is not very happy now.

"No, Ron, this year, you've far exceeded my expectations." Head Bryan shook his head. "You shine brilliantly in the imperial capital, and have made our wolf family become a well-known aristocrat again. The rapid growth of your own strength is beyond all our expectations. The more than 80000 gold coins you sent back also make our family get rid of the predicament of lack of funds. Your contribution to the family has exceeded everyone in the family now."

"Patriarch, these are what I should do." Ron whispered.

"Ron, I want you to know that the whole family is proud of you." Head Bryan's voice was low. "It's just..."

"Patriarch, just what?" Ron couldn't help asking.

"Ron, your performance in this period is really dazzling. It will inevitably attract a lot of people's attention and attract a lot of enemies. I'm really a little worried." Bryan clan leader issued a long sigh, "but the family has no power to protect you. In fact, now the whole family needs your strength to protect. The burden of the whole family is all on you. As clan leader, I really feel reluctant to go."

"Patriarch, you must not say that. Without your careful training for so many years, I would not have achieved what I am today. It's the credit of you and the whole family that I can have today. It's natural that I should take the responsibility of the whole family." Ron said sincerely, "patriarch, you can rest assured that I will make our wolf family return to the past glory."

"Good boy, I've read you right!" Bryan patriarch patted Ron on the shoulder, with a trace of emotion in his tone, "however, you must be careful, you know, you are always in danger."

"Patriarch, I know that I will protect myself." Ron nodded.

"That's good." Head Bryan's expression seems to have softened a lot. "By the way, what's going on between you and Agatha?"

"Fortunately, she wanted to stay in DIDU, so she didn't come back with me." Ron replied.

"Ron, tell me the truth, what's the relationship between you and Agatha?" Clan leader Bryan is obviously a little uneasy about this.

"Patriarch, she and I are really good. Although we are not particularly close, we have a good relationship." Ron quickly said that this is also true. Although he and Agatha are not so close to Diana, they are always like a family. Although Agatha is not very good to him at ordinary times, she will always defend him at the critical moment.

"But how can you be with the magic princess?" Head Bryan frowned slightly.

"Patriarch, Agatha knows about me and Diana." Ron whispered.

"Ron, I don't want to ask about these things, but anyway, you have an engagement with Agatha, you can't cancel it because of anyone, do you understand?" Bryan patriarch solemnly asked.

"Patriarch, I never thought of canceling my engagement." Ron quickly said, he vaguely understand, Kristi asked him to cancel the engagement of the news, Bryan patriarch probably also know.

"That's good." The head of Bryan clan seems to be relieved, "the Ryan family has always attached importance to commitment, and engagement is also a kind of commitment. Once you propose to cancel the engagement, it will be an insult to the Ryan family. At that time, our wolf family and the Ryan family will turn into enemies."

"Patriarch, I understand." Ron whispered.

"Well, I won't tell you any more. The magic princess came to our house for the first time. You'd better accompany her first." Chief Bryan said with a little thought.

"Yes, patriarch." Ron answered and turned away.

"Ron." Just after a few steps, head Bryan called him back.

"Patriarch, what else can I do for you?" Ron turns around.

"There's one thing I think I should tell you." Chief Bryan sighed. "Caroline's getting married.""What?" Ron's face changed.

"It's on the 24th of this month, Caroline's seventeenth birthday." With a trace of pity in the tone of Bryan's patriarch, "Caroline is a good child. Alas, it's a pity..."

"Who is she going to marry?" Ron asked, biting his teeth slightly.

"Joseph bolt." Head Bryan slowly spits out a name.

Ron clenched his fist, then slowly loosened it, and said in as calm a voice as possible, "I see. Thank you, patriarch."

"Caroline would love to see you. Go and see her when you have time." Head Bryan sighed again.

"Yes, patriarch." Ron whispered, "I'll go home first."

"Go ahead." Brian patriarch shakes his head, he knows that Caroline is about to get married news, let Ron feel very bad.

************

"Ron, you're back!" Diana had been fidgeting in the room for a long time, and when she saw Ron coming back, she jumped on her.

"Well." Ron answered casually, then sat down heavily, his face a little gloomy.

"What happened?" Diana saw something wrong with Ron and asked with concern.

"Nothing." Ron shook his head.

"Does the patriarch not like me?" Diana had an uneasy look on her face.

"No, it's none of your business. Don't think about it." Ron frowned slightly.

"What's the matter?" Diana was a little upset. "Can't you tell me?"

"There's a friend who's going to get married." Ron was silent for a moment before he said low.

"You, you like her?" Asked Diana, hesitating.

Ron didn't answer. In fact, he really didn't know how to describe the relationship between himself and Caroline. There was no doubt that he liked Caroline and actually cared about her, but he didn't seem to like her. In fact, so far, he confirmed that the only girl he really liked was Joey.

"If you really like her, grab her." Diana added.

"You don't understand. If I rob her, I will be responsible for her, but I just don't want her to marry such a person. I don't want to marry her." Ron said after a moment's silence, "I just don't understand why her father is in such a hurry to marry her out? She is only seventeen years old

"Ron, the friend you're talking about, isn't it Caroline?" Diana thought about it and asked.

"How do you know?" Ron was stunned.

"I've sent someone to investigate your past. I know about you and Caroline. They all say that you are childhood sweethearts. It's rumored that Karen is your first love at the Royal Knight's college. But in fact, Caroline, Karen's sister, is your real first love, right?" Diana said quickly.

"She's not my first love." Ron said faintly, "it's just that over the years, she's really nice to me. No matter how their family objects, she always comes to me."

"Well, who is she going to marry?" Diana asked.

"Joseph bolt, the youngest son of Vickers bolt, the Lord of Yadi City, is a coquettish and incompetent dandy." Ron slowly said, eyes unconsciously flash a cold light, Caroline actually want to marry such a person, is let his heart angry.

"So it's a family marriage again." Diana murmured to herself, "Caroline has been sacrificed for the sake of the family."

Ron nodded and didn't speak. He was still a little confused and didn't know how to deal with it.

Fortunately, Caroline's marriage time is still more than half a month away, and he still has enough time to think about it.

************

the next morning.

The cold wind whistling, the sky is a bit gloomy, the top of Yadi City, with thick clouds, giving people a feeling of depression.

Ron came to Yadi city early in the morning. However, he didn't come for Caroline's sake. He came to the north of the city easily and the familiar Bookstore soon appeared in his sight.

Knock on the door of the bookstore, a moment later, the door is opened from inside, a face full of beard appears in front of Ron, it is the bookstore owner, dibbitt.

"Teacher." Ron, as usual, said respectfully.

"Eh, aren't you in the imperial capital?" Seeing Ron, dibbitt looked surprised. "When did you get back?"

"Just got home last night." Ron answered truthfully.

"Oh, you are not bad. You came home last night and came to see me early this morning." Dibbitt said with a smile, "I heard that you are doing well in DIDU. Oh, I also heard that you have a beautiful fiancee. When can I have a look?"
