When Charlie Wade and Lin Wan’ernded in Northern Europe, it was exactly three o’clock in the afternoon ording to local time.
Despite the fact that winter had already settled in Northern Europe, the temperatures were surprisingly mild—warmer even than Jinling, and the overall feel was more pleasant than they had anticipated.
However, Northern Europe’s hightitude meant shorter daylight hours during the winter months. Even though it was just three in the afternoon, dusk had already begun to set in, and the sun was low on the horizon.
This was Charlie Wade’s first winter visit to Northern Europe, and he couldn’t help but nce at his phone, which had adjusted to the local time. He remarked, “This ce is truly fascinating. It’s already dark at three o’clock…”
Lin Wan’er smiled and responded, “Osu City, located in the southern part of Northern Europe, still enjoys about five hours of daylight in winter. However, in the northern regions, they are soon entering the pr night, where the sun won’t be seen for one to two months.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Charlie Wade sighed, “I worry that I might feel a bit down if I stay here too long.”
“Not at all,” Lin Wan’er said, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. “You don’t realize that the pr night can be quite enchanting. In the ice-covered viges near the poles, the aurora is visible at any time. These viges are so sparsely popted that there are often more sled dogs than people. For someone like me, who is constantly on the run andcks security, those one to two months of pr night are the most peaceful times I experience.”
Charlie Wade instantly resonated with Lin Wan’er’s sentiments, feeling a pang of empathy for her. He sighed and remarked, “So, for those who need to hide, the night indeed offers a sense of safety.”
With a smile, Lin Wan’er added, “Now is the perfect season to view the aurora. Once your work is done, would you be able to join me in the northern part of Northern Europe?”
“Absolutely,” Charlie Wade replied without hesitation.
Lin Wan’er beamed with joy, her mind already drifting to the magical pr regions where ice, snow, pine trees, and the aurora intertwined beautifully.
As soon as they exited the ne, a vehicle from the Nordic royal family was waiting for them. Apetent middle-aged woman approached Charlie Wade, greeting him respectfully: “Mr. Wade, I am Susan White, the housekeeper for the Nordic royal family. You can call me Susan. Her Majesty the Queen has requested that I pick you and Miss Lin up from the airport. She is eagerly awaiting your arrival at the pce.”<fn05c9> Th?s chapter is updated by find{n}ovel</fn05c9>
Charlie Wade nodded appreciatively and said, “Thank you for your efforts.”
Susan humbly replied, “It’s my pleasure.”
She and a driver then opened the back doors of the car for Charlie Wade and Lin Wan’er, inviting them to get in.
Once inside, Susan and the driver settled in, and the driver started the engine. Susan, sitting in the passenger seat, added, “Mr. Wade, Ms. Lin, Her Majesty the Queen has already informed customs, so you won’t need to go through any entry procedures.”
As she spoke, she turned around and presented two certificates to them, saying, “These documents provide you with diplomatic immunity. If you n to explore Northern Europe during your stay, you can show these to any police or government officials, and they will ensure you have a smooth experience.”
“Thank you,” Charlie Wade replied, epting the certificates. He couldn’t help but feel grateful for Helena’s thoughtfulness. With both he and Lin Wan’er having Asian appearances, and with Charlie not speaking Norwegian, they might have faced scrutiny if they ventured out without proper documentation, possibly being mistaken for illegal immigrants.
These certificates would alleviate such concerns.
Charlie Wade had indeed intended to show Lin Wan’er around, as she had a deep affection for this country and would likely enjoy exploring its sights.
The royal vehicle sped away from the airport, heading straight to the royal pce located in the heart of Osu.
Meanwhile, Helena was filled with anticipation to meet Charlie Wade at the pce, and her grandmother, the elderly Queen Iliad, shared in her excitement.
As Helena paced the pce’s main hall, alternating between joy and shyness, the old queen approached her and advised, “Helena, when you see Charlie Wade, try to maintain yourposure and embody the grace expected of a queen.”
“Oh?” Helena responded with a hint of embarrassment, “Did I…e off as too obvious?”
The old queen yfully teased, “Your face seems to say, ‘My lover ising, and I’m thrilled.’”
“No way…” Helena quickly defended herself. “Grandma, I’m still quite reserved…”
The old queen shook her head with a sigh, “You usually exhibit the poise of royalty, but in front of Charlie Wade, you turn into a giddy young girl.”
With a wistful tone, she added, “Last time, I suggested you find ways to get closer to Charlie Wade. If you had taken my advice, perhaps you would have been expecting a child by now.”
