Domineering elf falls in love with fish
Chapter 22 The Last Chance
Following Karen's voice, Qin Qianying shifted her gaze to the smiling red-haired girl not far away.
It can be seen that she is very happy at this time. She even forgot to maintain the etiquette of a lady. After Laurenl agreed to the invitation, she couldn't wait to hold his hand.
Laurenl was also smiling, bright-faced and polite.
Just looking at their appearance, they look like a perfectly matched couple.
"Of course, Miss Xi Ni is also very good." Karen added.
There were people around him, and he didn't want his unintentional words to have any bad effects.
Compared with Sinigaya's beauty, she is more famous for her snake-scorpion heart.
The superior and noble aristocratic life gave Xi Ni unparalleled confidence. She could not tolerate anyone saying anything bad about her, not even a little bit.
Karen had heard this story.
A businessman who made a living by selling cloth. One day, a big business of his was illegally taken away by a competitor from a dependent family.
It is said that the reason was simply because when the businessman was chatting with others at the cocktail party about the strong contenders for the young city lord's fiancée, he accidentally said: "Although Miss Xi Ni is very beautiful, Miss Xi Ni can't be that close to the young city lord. It's because she has a good brother. If it weren't for her brother, the young city lord probably wouldn't even know who she is."
What he said was true, but Xi Ni happened to hear this.
Grabbing business is just the beginning.
After that, the businessman's business continued to suffer various blows and orders, and soon the business scale plummeted.
The supporters behind these competitors are all the Gaya family.
One day, under repeated blows, the businessman made a drunken mistake and couldn't help scolding Xi Ni, calling her a vicious woman.
Unexpectedly, Xi Ni heard about this incident from some source that day, and immediately put the businessman in jail on the charge of "disrespect to the earl".
Not only that, she also went to the prison to meet the businessman in person.
The day after Xi Ni left, the businessman bit his tongue and committed suicide in prison.
When the soldiers collected his body, several words were written in blood on the cell wall.
——I curse you! Xinigaya, even if I am in hell, I will definitely crawl out and find you!
Every word was weeping blood, and the soldiers suddenly felt horrified.
No one knows what Xi Ni did after she left.
The day after the businessman committed suicide, his wife was broken into and insulted by four people at home. She was a weak woman. After this incident, she couldn't bear it and chose to follow her husband and leave.
And his daughter did not survive. After her parents died, someone saw the stiff body of the young girl on the street.
Her clothes were in tatters, and her once beautiful platinum-blond hair had been shaved off. No one could connect this girl with the beloved little daughter she once grew up with.
After this incident, no one whose family background was inferior to that of the Gaya family dared to say anything bad about Xi Ni in public.
She was just a mad dog that bit people but couldn't bark. She single-handedly brought about the tragic ending of the businessman's family and his family.
……
"Ah."
Qin Qianying glanced at Karen in surprise, and nodded.
"Speaking of which, the Young City Master has already chosen his dance partner, and the dance is about to begin... Qin, are you sure you don't want me to lend you Mabe?"
Until this time, Karen still did not give up promoting his female companion to Qin Qianying.
He narrowed his glasses and reached out to pat Qin Qianying's arm: "Don't be embarrassed."
"…No thanks."
Qin Qianying really doesn't understand.
——Maybe the men in El Continent prefer to cuckold themselves.
……
Elegant and sweet music played, golden notes rotated in the center of the dance floor, and more than forty men and women in expensive dresses danced. The ladies' gorgeous dresses were flying, and when they accidentally met their male companions' eyes, a kind of ambiguity flowed out.
Laurel and Sydney are undoubtedly the two most watched people today.
Their dancing postures are perfect, and every rotation just hits the melody. Their handsome and beautiful appearance makes people unable to bear to look away.
"Brother Laurenl..."
Seeing the lover of her dreams holding her hand so close to her, Qini couldn't help but whisper.
Her eyes were full of admiration and admiration, and her face was obviously covered with pearl powder, but at this moment it still couldn't hide the glow of her cheeks, which made her delicate face look like peach blossoms in full bloom.
Xi Ni knew that she was very beautiful, but as the young city lord Laurenl, there were only a lot more beauties around her.
Her family background is better than that of other ladies present, but compared with Laurenl, it can be said that it is not worth mentioning.
Not to mention that he was an honors student at the Imperial Magic Academy.
This made it impossible for her not to admire the man in front of her.
Laurenl lowered his eyes: "What's wrong?"
Xi Ni shook her head, raised her arms, and turned around under Laurel's guidance: "It's okay, I just think... I'm really happy to be able to dance with you like this."
She originally wanted to say "happiness", but when she thought about it, she was afraid that Laurenl would be burdened by this word and leave a bad impression on her, so she gave up this option.
quite a while.
"...Ha." A mocking smile appeared on Laurenl's lips, but it quickly disappeared.
"I'm also happy to dance with you."
His expression management has always been in place, and Qini saw that he had applied more than a hundred layers of filters, unable to detect anything unusual about Laurel.
"Well, Brother Laurenl..."
"How long will it take for you to come back this time?"
Xi Ni asked sheepishly.
Before coming to the ball, her father, Count Gaya, had told her in detail that she must find a way to tie Laurenl's heart when her brother came back.
From what City Lord Modai revealed, Brother Laurenl seemed to dislike this kind of occasion.
After this time, City Lord Modai will no longer ignore Brother Laurenl's wishes and hold such a banquet.
This may be her last chance.
She must grasp it.
……
Standing in the corner of the dance party, Qin Qianying quietly observed Laurenl.
After the first dance, according to past rules, Laurent would take his chosen dance partner and walk around the hall together in all directions to pay tribute and talk to some of the more important nobles today.
Little Silver is analyzing the barrier that envelopes the fragrance of moonlight roses.
Just when Qin Qianying was worried about how to deliver the Moonlight Rose to Laurenl, it took the initiative to propose that as long as Qin Qianying could contact the barrier of the City Lord's Mansion, it could analyze and destroy it.
It's such a considerate and good system. If it weren't for the fact that she decided to protect her as a man, Qin Qianying would have hugged it and kissed it.
——And this kind of initiative to cheat on the host touches the world.
The analysis is already halfway through. In ten minutes, the barrier will be completely broken, and the rose fragrance accumulated for many days will be released.
When the time comes, even the most stupid person will be able to see what's wrong with Laurel.
The dance is over.
Dancing is not an easy task, so Karen walked over slowly with Mabei in her arms.
The two of them were panting slightly, with a few traces of sweat breaking out on their heads.
"Qin, dancing is really hard work..." Karen shook her head, looking like she had had enough.
Mabei next to her was even more miserable.
In order to maintain a graceful figure, women often need to wear jewel-chain sheepskin high heels that hurt their toes every step of the way.
The previous wedges were fine, once you got used to them you could tolerate them. As a result, I don’t know which genius invented this steep and high shoe...
The key is that when you wear it, you really look tall and slender...
What else can ladies do? Everyone else is wearing them, how can she not wear them?
In addition, a tight girdle must be tied around the waist, and at least two maids are required to tighten the cord together.
Every time Mabe took a breath, she felt like it was a challenge to herself.
Men are much more relaxed. Whether it is a dress or leather shoes, the tailor can make it whatever is comfortable.
As a result, she didn't complain, but Karen started crying.
What a coward.
Mabe thought.
What Karen is most proud of is his wealth.
Based on what Karen just said, Mabei is now extremely dissatisfied with Karen. The eyes are not eyes and the nose is not a nose.
"So I made a very wise choice." Qin Qianying smiled.
Karen twitched her lips, "Well, if I'm like you, sitting alone in the corner watching others dancing in the center of the dance floor, I'd rather be tired like this."
Why did you come to the banquet? Isn't it just to show off?
Show off your clothes, show off your gems, show off your dance partner.
Whose clothes are more gorgeous, whose gems are more expensive, whose women are more beautiful...
Qin Qianying couldn't understand Karen, and Karen couldn't understand Qin Qianying's low-key behavior.
"Oh... look, the eyes of other girls are swallowing up Miss Qini." Karen shook his head.
What an honor it is to be able to walk with the Young City Lord as his dance partner.
"I didn't know who made the news before, saying that the Young City Master is not a womanizer and prefers men... Haha, many people believed it at the time, but now that I think about it, it's really a joke."
Look, look, the Young City Master is quite gentle and happy to hold Qini's hand now, isn't he?
"Oh?" Qin Qianying became interested.
"There are still such rumors?"
Karen chuckled: "Yes, this is actually the first time that the Young City Master chooses a dance partner at a banquet."
Although he didn't dare to mess with the femme fatale Xi Ni, if he was asked to talk about Laurel, Karen could gossip about him for three days and three nights.
other.
Who doesn't know that their young city lord is gentle and courteous, and treats the people of the city very well.
"Stop talking, the young city lord is here."
Before he finished speaking, Karen had already restrained his playful look, and the expression on his face became serious. The change of expression was not unpleasant.
Sure enough, within a few seconds, Laurenl's figure appeared not far away.
Xi Ni held Laurel's arm in a dependent manner, with a gentle curve on her lips, a smile that would open up to anyone she saw.
"Young City Lord..." Karen greeted Laurenl as he passed by.
"Good evening." Laurenl nodded, very gentlemanly.
But I was thinking: When will this damn banquet be finished?
Whether it's Xi Ni who has been sticking to him all the time, or these irritating guys in front of him.
Dissatisfied, the next second, Laurenl noticed a sight that made him feel dangerous.
He was stunned and couldn't believe that someone would pay attention to him in the city of Tedea. Looking in the direction he noticed, he saw an ordinary black-haired man.
...or not so mediocre, he's got great looks.
Even with my own picky eyes, this man's appearance is considered outstanding.
Laurenl's heart beat.
Did he feel wrong...?
No, his intuition was spot on.
So Laurenl stopped moving forward and walked up to Qin Qianying: "Who are you? I don't think I've seen you before."
Unexpectedly, Qin Qianying staying there would attract the Young City Lord's attention. Karen was startled, and without waiting for Qin Qianying's reply, he quickly said: "Young City Lord, he is Qin, and like me, he is also a businessman... "
"merchant?"
Laurenl chewed these two words carefully.
"Qin"...
He doesn't look like an ordinary businessman
Qin Qianying curved her lips and showed a polite smile: "Yes, sir."
