This world is anything but ordinary [Tutoring + Marvel]
Chapter 28 The inheritance ceremony begins immediately
Early in the morning during the inheritance ceremony, Pauline interrupted Linlang's morning exercise, pulled her into the room, and took out the clothes she had prepared one after another for her to try on.
It's called dressing up well so as not to disgrace the Bovino family.
After being put into several sets of clothes by Pauline like a rag doll, Linlang actually felt mentally exhausted.
This is more tiring than training!
Finally getting Pauline's nod, she was pressed in front of the mirror again, tinkering with her hair and makeup.
In her imagination, shouldn't the mafia succession be about wearing a black suit, showing up sassy, and then calmly saying a few words and ending it?
It seems like she is getting married now.
Due to Pauline's threat, no one in the family objected and all acquiesced to her move. It's better to dress up and look nice. After all, the little princess of the Bovino family is doted on by her own family.
After getting dressed, Linlang looked at herself in the mirror, wearing a black cheongsam with golden patterns embroidered in the shape of a phoenix. She wore a black bud hat on her head. The black gauze in front of the hat covered half of Linlang's face. Her hair was permed into waves and curled up on the back of her head, with only a few strands of hair touching her cheeks.
Buddha relies on gold clothing, and people rely on clothing. Dressed up like this, Linlang almost couldn't recognize herself.
"Sure enough, boss is still the most suitable for cheongsam. All the food I have done in the past two years has been in vain. When boss goes out now, you don't know how many men will surround you like flies." Pauline looked at Linlang in the mirror and said.
I wish I could change the adjective, how about cute little bee? Why do you say fly! I don’t want to be Yoneda Kyo!
"Boss, wait in the room first. When the time is up, we will ask you to come out." After Pauline finished speaking, she left the room.
Finally gone, Linlang thought silently.
Linlang put on the headphones. She hadn't worn such tight clothes for a long time. Linlang felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't breathe smoothly. She walked out of the room and prepared to go to the rooftop to get some fresh air.
The gathering place does not include the third floor and above, and there should be no people on the rooftop.
After confirming that Xiaojiu had recorded the relevant personnel's information, Linlang had almost adapted to the tightness of the cheongsam. Linlang stood on the rooftop and watched the guests' cars coming in one after another. The family members were sorting and directing them in an orderly manner.
Linlang took a deep breath and felt a little nervous. It was the first time in her life to participate in such a formal occasion.
The tension didn't last long before it was replaced by a sense of crisis. She felt an unfamiliar breath appear behind her. She pulled out the dagger tucked into her high boots and turned alert.
Behind her stood two people wearing gray cloaks, the cloaks hiding each other's figure and appearance.
"Upstairs is not a party venue. If you go wrong, do you need me to lead you?" Linlang pretended to play with the dagger and observed the two people.
"We are here to find you, Miss Bovino." The two of them put their right hands on their chests and bent down to salute Linlang.
"First of all, congratulations on becoming the tenth generation of the Bovino family. This is our gift to you." The person on the right handed the box forward.
Linlang didn't intend to answer, but just looked at them. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster, and besides, this scene always feels familiar to her.
The people in cloaks didn't intend to explain. Seeing that Linlang didn't want to take it, they placed the box on the stone table next to them and turned around to leave without any hesitation.
Of course, these two people didn't take the stairs, they just jumped out from the rooftop. They probably took the same route when they came here.
Linlang looked at the box tied with colorful ribbons and hesitated whether to open it. She couldn't figure out the other party's intentions for a while.
Linlang caressed the earphones: "Xiaojiu, scan the box for explosive devices, materials and other dangerous items."
"Okay, boss. Testing... The test is safe and there are no abnormalities."
After she got closer, she slowly opened the box. There was indeed no explosive device inside, but she was suddenly not sure whether it was a dangerous item.
She closed the box, took it back to her room, found the lockbox under the bed, and locked it.
"Dong dong dong."
Just after doing all this, there was a knock on the door. After Linlang repeatedly confirmed the safety of the things, she slowly opened the door.
The person outside the door is Dino in a black suit. This was the first time Linlang saw Dino dressed so formally. He had a slender figure and stood as tall as a pine tree. The usually loose blond hair was half fixed with hairspray, and the whole person suddenly became a lot more mature.
He blocked the door, which actually gave Linlang a sense of oppression. The cheongsam that had taken her time to get used to seemed to be a lot tighter.
Is this the so-called handsomeness that makes people breathless?
When Linlang looked at Dino, Dino was also paying attention to Linlang. The originally petite body showed beautiful curves under the outline of the cheongsam. The black cheongsam brings out the fair skin of the girl, and the bright red lips are also very attractive.
Dino's eyes darkened, he didn't want the other person to walk out of this door.
The two stood at the door as if they had become sculptures. Joe and Romario beside them coughed twice, preparing to wake up the two sculptures.
After hearing the reminder, Linlang realized that she was once again seduced by beauty, and quickly asked Qiao: "Are we about to start?"
"There is still half an hour left. I specially asked the tenth generation of Gabriel to tell you about the situation of his inheritance at that time. He was about the same age as you at the time, or even younger than you. His experience should be useful to you. help."
"Boss, I'll wait for you below." Romario retreated.
Joe glanced at the two of them and turned away.
Linlang quickly turned sideways to let Dino in. Qiao was right, he could really learn from Dino on this matter.
"Brother Dino, what was it like when you inherited it?" Linlang asked Dino after pouring him a cup of Pu'er tea that he had brought from the temple.
Dino looked at Linlang and silently told the joke he had made.
I heard Dino say that he sneaked out, was caught by Li Baoen, and was forced to inherit the ritual. Linlang smiled heartily, after all, this was indeed something Dino could do back then.
"In fact, there is no need to put too much pressure. For members of your own family, this inheritance ceremony means that you have already been recognized by them. You don't need to speak many high-sounding words, just speak your heart. As for other families, they can see It’s also how much you are valued in the family.”
"Just to see what's on the menu, I understand, Brother Dino." Linlang smiled slyly, feeling confident in her heart.
Seeing Linlang's cute look, Dino couldn't help but reach out to touch her head, but was blocked by the hat and had to give up.
"Why don't you wear an extra cloak later?" Dino said silently.
"Am I not good-looking like this?" Linlang was confused.
Dino sighed secretly: "No, it's pretty good-looking. I'm just worried that you'll catch a cold."
It's summer, are you worried about catching a cold?
After not struggling for long, Qiao and Pauline walked in slowly. Qiao saluted Dino and then said to Linlang: "Boss, you are ready. Mr. Dino, Pauline will take you to the venue here. Thank you for your help." .”
"It's okay, it's my honor." After Dino stood up, he took Linlang's hand and kissed the back of her hand: "I'll wait for you at the venue."
Linlang felt that her ears were getting hot. This was too foul, so she responded softly.
Qiao wore a burgundy suit today and took off the glasses he usually wore. He motioned to Linlang to hold his arm.
The two walked towards the venue.
Qiao looked at the little girl he brought up and asked: "Are you ready, boss?"
"I'm ready, but you'd better just call me Linlang. I feel comfortable."
"Today is different, boss."
Seeing that he couldn't be corrected, Linlang stopped worrying and slowly followed Qiao's footsteps towards the venue.
People at the venue were whispering to each other. Most of them had learned something about the heir before coming. The granddaughter adopted by the ninth generation of the Bovino family was young and had many wonderful performances in this black and white trial.
When they saw Linlang appearing with Qiao on her arm, everyone's attention couldn't help but turn to the two of them. Both of them looked good, and their appearance really added a beautiful scenery to the party.
Today's meeting place was mainly in the garden of the Bovino family. Qiao brought Linlang to the pavilion in the middle and stood aside silently.
Facing the people standing in the middle, Linlang first found where Dino was. Seeing the encouraging eyes, she nodded, then withdrew her gaze and smiled confidently at everyone.
"Welcome to our Bovino family banquet. I am Linlang Bovino. I take the place of the ninth generation who is ill to express my sincere thanks for coming."
After Linlang talked a lot about the scene with great emotion and eloquence, she finally came to an end. Seeing the rich and powerful family members secretly wiping away tears in the corner, Lin Lang understood. The essay I stayed up late to write yesterday was not in vain!
"The Bovino family has always adhered to the purpose of peaceful coexistence and protecting the family. I hereby guarantee that this purpose will always exist as long as I am here. Thank you again for coming, thank you~"
After saying this, Linlang gave a standard salute. Sometimes the cheongsam can make people feel weak, but with Linlang's confident and generous actions, this cheongsam added a bit of heroic feeling.
"Qiao, it's up to you to make the arrangements. You must make the guests feel at home." Linlang waved to Qiao.
"Yes, boss." Qiao bowed ninety degrees to Linlang for the first time.
Everyone present looked at Linlang and couldn't help but change their original thoughts. Many people initially thought that although the little princess Bovino had inherited, it was actually Qiao who was in charge of the overall situation, and Qiao was the person behind the scenes.
And looking at the actions of everyone in the Bovino family today, it also shows that their previous ideas were wrong.
Everyone couldn't help but raise their champagne, preparing to find time to get acquainted with the tenth generation of the Bovino family.
Qiao took Linlang to have a social exchange with many other family representatives who cooperated with the family. With Xiaojiu's reminder, Linlang never overturned.
These uncles and uncles couldn't help but soften when they looked at Linlang, and began to greet Linlang with greetings.
This time Scuvarro did not come, and no one from the Vongola family was present, but they only sent gifts.
The ninth generation of Vongola has many things to do every day, so receiving gifts is considered an honor for a small and medium-sized mafia like Bovino.
After Linlang finally met these important collaborators, Qiao went to discuss with other collaborators. After all, except for particularly important cooperation, the boss does not need to negotiate in person.
Dino silently walked to Linlang and put his suit on her body.
"Brother Dino? I'm really not cold." Linlang was a little confused. She even felt a little hot.
"The temperature will cool down in a while, so wrap it up."
In this matter, the talkative Dino was extra persistent.
Sensing the seriousness of the other party, Linlang didn't say anything. Dino's light body temperature passed to her from the clothes, and she felt like she was being hugged by the other party. Linlang was reluctant to take off the coat for a while.
She gave in, and Linlang secretly thought that no matter whether the other party really had special feelings for her, but since he had stolen her heart, he couldn't escape.
The two of them actually thought about the same thing at this moment, but they were both silent and unmoved.
Neither of them knew that James, who was about to step forward to say hello, saw this scene and walked away silently.
Many times, it's too late.
