(Am I stuck in a vicious cycle?)
"Give me three minutes, I'll be done quickly!"
"No! Not even three seconds!"
"Who do you think you are? Three seconds?"
Hearing this, Joey was displeased. He felt that promising three minutes was already a ploy to get him in; those three seconds were far from pleasant.
"I'm not looking down on you, Mr. Joey, but you really can't pass!"
"Hey, you bastard, I have a short temper!"
Joey made a move to go forward and argue with him.
"Joey Brown?"
Hearing someone call her name, Joey immediately turned around and saw a familiar face.
"Puff!"
"Captain Pouf!"
The guard beside him also saluted Puff.
"What are you doing here? Do you intend to barge into Lady Catherine's room by yourself?!"
Puff nodded to the guard, then questioned Joey in an annoyed tone.

Joey chuckled, completely ignoring Puff's words.
“Joey Brown, I’m warning you, don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you sent Lady Catherine back. I’m grateful that you sent Lady Catherine back, but I, Pouf, am the first to object to you trying to trick the little-traveled Lady Catherine into marrying you!”

Joey was also angry. He was already annoyed by being blocked by these two soldiers, and now that he had been a monk for Catherine for so long, he couldn't stand it anymore because Puff was opposing their marriage.
"A handsome man and a beautiful woman? I can accept the woman's beauty, but as for the man's talent, I suggest you look in the mirror first, and stop lying through your teeth!"
Puff didn't back down either, and immediately launched into a tirade.
"You bastard, I shouldn't have let you drink that barrel of wine in the first place!"
"Hmph, who cares about that barrel of wine!"
"Then spit it out!"
"I'll have someone bring two buckets back to you later!"
"..."
What are you two arguing about?
A female voice came from the other end of the corridor. Joey and Puff stopped arguing and looked over there.
The person who arrived was none other than Catherine's personal bodyguard, Eileen, who was skilled in archery.
