Chapter 314 ABO (2)

Everything about the Duchess Golightly's banquet required perfection, and the arrangement started three days ago. When the guests arrived, they saw tiles, the magnificent Golightly Manor, and a delicately textured red carpet. In the main hall, so that the ladies and young masters will not be stained with the dust on their luxurious skirts.

Tan Shi arrived late just like Lanny in his previous life, but Lanny got lost in the huge Duke's estate, while Tan Shi did it on purpose.

All the processes were in order. When everyone entered the dining room with graceful steps, Duchess Golightly sat at the head of the table, and everyone else also took their seats, but the posture of sitting down was extremely elegant, Just looking at it is very pleasing to the eye.

The Duchess looks young and beautiful, and the most special thing is her temperament, which is elegant and unique.In terms of appearance, she may not be the most outstanding, but she definitely looks the most beautiful and the most eye-catching.Her beauty and elegance have long been known, and her every move is the code of conduct for noble Omegas.At this time, they paid close attention to the duchess, and they seemed to learn a little more about the duchess by looking at her a few more times.

Sitting next to the duchess, Mapel was not as radiant as usual, and he, who was regarded as the treasure of the empire, could not grab his edge when the duchess was around.

The Duchess glanced at all the positions, and paused slightly when she saw that there was still a vacant seat at the end.

At her banquet, there has never been anyone who was absent or late without a greeting.

However, she could wait for a while for this guest who might have a little problem.

Mapel smiled secretly when he saw the vacant seat, and asked in a surprised tone: "Did something happen to this guest?"

Everyone followed his gaze to look at the empty seat.

In fact, everyone knew who did not come to the vacant seat, and the matter of the major general was aroused.It is said that because of his estrus, he almost killed an Alpha soldier in the army, and in the end he himself became infertile because of this. He is a very hateful person who is no longer worth caring about.

A young female Omega volunteered to answer Mapel, "This is Mr. Lanney. As for why he hasn't arrived yet... that's probably because he's from Blue Star and doesn't know much about banquet etiquette."

Nobles have a great prejudice against civilians, especially those from low-level planets. In their hearts, such low-level planets are like slums.

People from the slums are looked down upon by the nobles.

The etiquette of the banquet is very strict, and the time is even more calculated.It is the most perfect way to arrive on time within a very short period of time. Whether it is early or late, it is a bit embarrassing for them.But Lenny is just a commoner, and there is no special person to calculate the time for him, so the current situation is also predictable.

Mapel's behavior drew a dissatisfied glance from the Duchess.In any case, Lenny was her invited guest, and this kind of behavior would not only make him look noble, but rather rude.

Just as the Duchess was about to say something, a bright and clear male voice rang clearly in everyone's ears. His voice was like a breeze, and people couldn't help but follow his direction.

"I'm sorry, Duchess Golightly, the manor is very large and beautiful, I'm very sorry for being late."

The person who spoke was wearing a crescent-colored silk robe that wasn't very attractive, but it was definitely not tacky. As he approached, he found that although the style of the robe was simple, the fabric was different. It was obviously in the daytime, walking But when it's time, it's like the moonlight is shining softly, exuding a bright light.

But no clothes can cover his own light.The young man's eyebrows are extremely handsome. From a distance, it looks like an ink painting full of charm. When he walked in, he found that the young man was really very handsome. He had a much more beautiful appearance than the average Omega, and his skin was softer and fairer. But it has a kind of precipitated temperament that ordinary Omega does not have.

When seeing him in person, no one believed that he really came out of what they thought was a slum. To put it bluntly, the princesses and princes of the royal family may not have such a special temperament.

The Duchess's eyes also brightened, and she took a closer look at Tan Shi who was smiling at her in a neither humble nor condescending way.The more she watched, the more inexplicably excited she became, wanting to grab something, sweating from her nervous palms, but the duchess, who was very strict with etiquette and manners, didn't notice it.

She asked subconsciously: "Every guest will be personally guided by a servant, you..." She quickly realized halfway through the speech, "You take a seat first."

Tan Shi is obviously lost like this, the Duchess doesn't think Tan Shi is being rude, and now she finds that the Duke's Mansion is the one who is being rude.How could she let the guests get lost in the manor?

"Thank you ma'am." Tan Shi sat down on the last vacant seat.

Tan Shi's seemingly simple action of sitting down attracted the surprised gazes of other people. Didn't they come from the slums?Why doesn't it look like that at all!Not only did his appearance and temperament greatly exceed their expectations, but what surprised them even more was that he was also impeccable in some etiquette and details that only nobles can pay attention to.He is like a born nobleman, not only has his manners perfect, but also makes some of their deliberately elegant movements a bit contrived.

The Duchess called the butler and asked why no one brought Tan Shi in?

The butler glanced at Mapel, and the Duchess instantly understood what was going on.

He didn't know why Mapel did this, did Mapel have any trouble with Lanny?As far as she knew, the two had never met before.But this kind of behavior is really too uneducated.

She is indeed a person who pays attention to etiquette. She has raised her Omega daughter to be a lady, and he also hopes to raise Omega's son to be a qualified nobleman, but she also found that Mapel seems to be unable to learn well.Mapel is like a piece of rotten wood, even if she is the best carver, she can't turn him into a magic.

Compared to Lanny, she felt that Mapel was more like a commoner from a lower planet, forced to receive noble education.

Mapel was terrified by the Duchess's glance, but he still maintained a perfect smile, looking at the plate in front of him, except that the hand on his knee betrayed him a little, on the surface he didn't show anything error.But because of his gesture, the duchess was even more disappointed with him.

As her child, Mapel is not short of anything, and Mapel is not Bata, he is an Omaga, who does not need to make a living.She likes that Maple is frank, confident and cute, instead of timidly like a gray mouse, who can't do anything openly, but likes to do some indecent little tricks.

But no matter how dissatisfied the Duchess is with Mapel's actions at this moment, she will not lose Mapel's face at this time. She can only order the housekeeper to punish the servant with a guilty heart, and then start to eat as if nothing had happened. .

Dining for nobles is a very cumbersome process, but the Duchess's every move makes people forget this cumbersomeness. Her elegant movements make people unable to resist following her rhythm.

Mapel couldn't help looking at Tan Shi at the end of the table. She originally thought that Tan Shi would lose face, but in fact Tan Shi behaved beyond his expectations.It even made him feel very jealous.

He has been around the duchess, and his aesthetics is naturally not bad. He can judge the good and bad of Tan Shi's manner.Tan Shi's every move seemed to let him see the shadow of the Duchess. Every movement was as perfect as precise to the angle, but it didn't look deliberate. Everything seemed to flow smoothly. That kind of graceful posture was something he tried his best to learn , but still not up to the level required by the Duchess.

Is it because they are parents and children?So can it be so similar?

No, he is the one who has lived in the duke's mansion for 20 years. He is the treasure of the empire and the son of the duchess. Lanny is just a poor man from a low-level planet!Since you were lost in the first place, why do you want to come back now?

Mapel's fork made a screeching sound when it swiped across the dinner plate. Everyone, including the Duchess, seemed to press the pause button, and looked at Mapel in unison.

Maple didn't dare to face the Duchess' eyes, lowered her head slightly, and apologized.

Too petty.The Duchess frowned.

Mapel felt his face was hot, he kept staring at Tan Shi to make Tan Shi make a fool of himself, but he didn't want to be the one who made a fool of himself in the end.

Mapel made mistakes again and again, and the Duchess looked in Tan Shi's direction. Tan Shi seemed to feel something, and raised his head to show the Duchess a decent and refreshing smile.

For some reason, the Duchess couldn't help but look at Tan Shi over and over again.

Mapel, who was sitting next to the duchess, naturally noticed the duchess' movements.He was a little panicked, "Mother, why do you keep looking at Mr. Lanney, is there anything strange about him?"

After he said this, everyone looked up again, their eyes lingering on the Duchess and Tan Shi.

The Duchess was very annoyed by Mapel's unrestrained speech. She glanced at Mapel lightly and said, "Mr. Lanney's dining etiquette is very beautiful, I couldn't help but take a second look."

"I also think it's very good, but I'm curious. I heard that Mr. Lanney is from the Blue Star, and he was not born in a noble family. He didn't take a noble etiquette course in the military academy. Why is there such a standard of etiquette?"

After Mapel finished speaking, everyone looked at Tan Shi at the end of the table.Tan Shi nodded to everyone, and did not appear to be at a loss.

The Duchess didn't know what happened to Mapel today, and she reacted so strangely.It was as if he had to make a fool of himself to make him die.

"It's true. I haven't taken professional etiquette courses for nobles, but I have also met some noble classmates in the military school, so I am no stranger to this." Tan Shi said, "And I am very grateful to Duchess Golightly for her compliments. It’s a great honor.”

"Mr. Lanney is excellent." The Duchess nodded, thinking of what she had heard about Lanney, she felt that Lanney was indeed very rare.It's nothing to be born superior, but it's remarkable that Lenny can be as good as he is now.And if it wasn't for the accident before, Lenny could have been better and more likable.

The Duchess looked at Mapel again, and the obvious warning in it made Mapel dare not say another word.

The outside world said that the duke and his wife were so kind to him, but they were only adopted sons, but they were raised as their own.However, only he himself understands his situation.First of all, everyone knows that he is an adopted son.And this is what the Duke and Duchess did on purpose, which shows a meaning: he is just a substitute, and he will not be allowed to take the place of their son.

In fact, only the duchess liked him, and the duke didn't care about him at all.Of course, the Duchess didn't really love him, she was just using him to satisfy her empathy and longing for the child, and she was often dissatisfied with him.

Every time he saw the cold eyes of the Duchess, he was afraid.

But it doesn't matter, these are not important, in the eyes of outsiders, he is the treasure of the empire held in the palm of everyone.He can use this status as a springboard, such as the third prince who has the best chance of succeeding to the throne.

As long as he becomes queen by then, what about the duchess?At that time, he would like to see how the elegant and perfect duchess would display her image in front of him.

But now there is still an ascetic Lenny.As long as Lenny recognizes his relatives, all his plans and possessions will be destroyed, and he must not let this happen.

Then Mapel returned to normal, and did not deliberately trouble Tan Shi again.Otherwise, the Duchess will pay more attention to Lanney.

"Thank you Mrs. Golightly for your hospitality." After the meal, everyone stood up.

It took two hours for the dinner, and after eating, everyone did not show the ugly appearance that would appear if they were too full. They still walked lightly, maintaining the image of aristocratic elegance at all times.

The Duchess called Mapel aside and said softly: "Mapelle, did you not take my teachings to heart?"

"Sorry, mother. It's just that what did I do wrong?" Mapel looked at the Duchess stubbornly.

The Duchess felt a little headache when she saw Mapel's pretending to be strong, and she didn't feel pity.Instead, he remembered the appearance of Lenny just now. Even if it was an embarrassing thing, he could easily make people forget the embarrassment and admire his demeanor instead.In such a comparison, the people he taught carefully were much worse than others.

The Duchess' tone became stiff with anger, "If you can't even find out where you are wrong, then I will consider hiring you an etiquette teacher to tell you again what a nobleman's manners are like."

The Duchess' words made Mapel feel very humiliated.

How could she say that about him?

"I just asked Mr. Lanney a few words out of curiosity." Maple said coquettishly, "Mother, do you want to blame me for a commoner who came out of a slum?"

The Duchess did not completely forgive her adoptive son because of his acting like a spoiled child, and when Mapel found out the disappointment in her eyes, she simply broke the jar.Anyway, he can't do anything to satisfy this mother who demands perfection in everything, so let her be dissatisfied.Anyway, without Lanny, he knew that his mother would be reluctant to give up on him.

And as long as he marries the third prince at that time, everything will be fine.

As the host, the Duchess did not talk to Mapel alone for too long.She entertained everyone and walked towards the prepared yard.

There are many flowers in the yard, one pot after another, cluster after cluster, all of which are very precious and beautiful flowers.

Everyone praised again and again, and then began to carefully cut off the flower branches under the Duchess's signal, and put them in their respective baskets.

Tan Shi doesn't know much about illustration art, but he has seen many excellent flower arrangements, which can be regarded as standing on the shoulders of giants.He recalled the works of the masters, and began to cut the flower branches seriously.

But that's not the big deal.

Footsteps started to sound frequently and regularly not far away, and all the Omega looked in that direction curiously, and then turned their heads with blushing faces.It's just that from time to time, I still secretly aim in that direction.

It was the invited Alphas who came. Immediately, even Mapel couldn't pay attention to Tan Shi for the time being, and instead worked hard to create a perfect image of himself.Although he hated the harshness of the Duchess, what the Duchess taught was indeed useful, and he understood that such a gesture was needed to attract the third prince.

Tan Shi also glanced curiously, and just happened to look at the third prince who was walking in the front row. Tan Shi quickly looked away, and cut off the flower branches he wanted with scissors.

Duke Golightly and the high-spirited, elegant and extravagant third prince walked side by side.He is tall, handsome, and not angry.When he saw his wife Miranda, there was a smile on his face.

"I brought them here for you."

Seeing her husband, the Duchess also smiled softly, and said angrily, "What are you talking about? What 'I' want them to do." If this was not outside, Miranda would want to pinch Duke Golightly on the waist. Bundle.

Others felt a little envious when they saw the Duke and Duchess being so affectionate.The Duke and Duchess of Golightly, both themselves and their marriage relationship are very enviable.

----

Omega and Alpha arranging flowers together, and the conversation between you and me is indispensable. It seems accidental, but it is actually intentional. Tan Shi is forgotten by the side, and no Alpha is willing to stand beside Tan Shi and talk to him.

Maple is happier when he sees that Tan Shi is not good.He glanced at Duke Golightly, his father, and suddenly had the urge to show off in front of Tan Shi.His father, however, was 'very good' to him.This feeling of stealing something from others is not bad.

Mapel approached Duke Golightly affectionately, and asked, "Father, do you think I should put a white Yugulan here or a red Bilianhua?"

Golightly was whispering something to his wife that seemed to be official but was actually a sweet little thing, when Mapel suddenly came over, he frowned instantly, and quickly suppressed it.

Maple used to like to lean towards him, but later on she seemed to know that she was bored, so she seldom came to him to find pleasure, why did she put on such a posture now?Could it be to show the third prince?

Duke Golightly did not like this adopted son, and if Miranda did not like him, he would not have kept Mapel.He loved his wife Miranda very much, so when the child disappeared, he was naturally very sad.Not only did he not want an outsider to replace his son, but he felt that Mapel was not like his son at all.He could see Mapel's temperament clearly. He was not very righteous and arrogant, and he was not at all similar to the temperament of the Golightly family.

It's just that since he has raised her for 20 years, he won't be too disrespectful to Mapel, "Yu Gulan is not bad."

Seeing Duke Golightly answering himself, Mapel felt as if he had found a treasure, and he said with a smile: "I also think the white one is more refreshing. Thank you, father!"

Mapel clearly knew that Tan Shi didn't know his own background, but he still had the idea of ​​overpowering Tan Shi, so he glanced at Tan Shi proudly.

It was probably because Tan Shi was so unexpected that he felt like he was being compared to nothing.He couldn't help but wonder, is the power of genes so powerful?Just because Lenny is the child of the Duke and Duchess of Golightly, does he have to be better than him?Although he grew up in a slum, he managed to grow up like this.But it was him who had been with his parents for 20 years!

Tan Shi noticed the movement on Mapel's side, but he kept his back to the three of them, and he didn't care about Mapel's showing off at all.He placed two large vases and carefully decorated the flower branches. He imitated the work of a certain master and made a slight modification. It was a bit complicated, but he felt a sense of accomplishment after inserting it.

Although no one came to stand with Tan Shi, the Alphas kept looking at Tan Shi.

This young man is so good-looking and has a sense of presence, he stood there quietly playing with those flowers, his hands carved like jade set against the delicate petals, he suddenly felt that people were more delicate than flowers, he was stunned Comparing all the gorgeously dressed Omega to vulgarity, even Mapel, who is known as the treasure of the empire in legend, seems to lack a layer of aura in comparison. The title of stunning beauty doesn't seem to be so appropriate anymore.

They were secretly regretting in their hearts, if they hadn't lost their fertility, they wouldn't mind even if Tan Shi was a commoner.Such a beautiful woman, what a pity.

With the work in Tan Shi's hand completed, he asked his servant to put his work in a glass case.

The magnificent flower arrangement attracted everyone's attention. They were amazed at its exquisiteness, and had a high opinion of Tan Shi.Although it was rumored that Lanny was so unbearable, I was really constantly creating surprises for them.

Miranda also noticed Tan Shi's side. When she saw the results of Tan Shi's flower arrangement, her eyes shone with surprise.

Duke Golightly followed Miranda's line of sight and looked towards Tan Shi. He just glanced at the work, but instead took a few extra glances at the young man's back.

"This kid is Mr. Lanny...Mr. Lanny." Miranda fully expressed her liking for Tan Shi, "He is a good boy, it's a pity that something like that happened."

"Major General Lenny? I know him." Duke Golightly is very familiar with the military department. He has heard of Major General Lenny's deeds. He also thinks this kid is good, but there is such a big mistake and there is no backer. With the backing, the end will not be so good.

It is indeed a pity for such a good seedling.

Seeing that Miranda loved Tan Shi very much, Duke Golightly hesitated for a moment, and asked a question, "Do you think this child..." He tried hard to think of a suitable adjective, "Face good? "

Miranda's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she nodded, "You think so too?" She murmured softly, "It's as if I've seen it somewhere before, very kind..."

A guess suddenly surged in Duke Golightly's mind.

Seeing that Tan Shi was in the limelight again, Mapel was not very happy.Although everyone was praising him and didn't say a word about Tan Shi, his eyes couldn't tell good from bad, neither did the others.He suddenly felt ashamed.

After the exchange of flower arrangements, you can move freely afterwards. Some Alphas and Omega went outing and drinking afternoon tea together for the sake of dating, and some went to play ball and ride horses together, and some Alphas chose to go to Golightly’s underground mecha. Factory practice.

Mechas are always Alpha's favorite thing, even Omega can't compare, of course, this is when Omega is not in heat. The pheromones of Omega in estrus basically cannot be rejected by one's own determination.

"I would like to ask His Royal Highness the Third Prince to give me some advice." Tan Shi changed his silence and then voluntarily joined the Third Prince's team.

An impatient Omega said contemptuously, "What are you going to do?"

"Yeah, why are you going!"

"What does he know? This is Alpha's activity, so I want to get close to it. It's really..."

It's really shameless, to actually want to seduce the third prince and those powerful Alphas, without looking at what he looks like.

Hearing these whispers, Tan Shi did not blindly endure and suffer silently. He looked at the group of people squarely, "I am an outstanding graduate of the Grantley Military Academy. I already had the title of major when I graduated. He has participated in many battles without a single defeat, has repelled countless invaders, and can pilot an S-class offensive mecha at the age of 16."

Tan Shi's tone was light, but there was a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, his voice was sonorous and forceful, and he asked, "Why can't I?"
