Magic Merchant Racial Anecdote

Chapter 12 Dinner with the Dragon

Ten minutes later, Alai sat down on the sofa in the living room of Nino's castle with his disheveled hair on his head.He thought he was going to die just now, is this the so-called near-death experience?He can guarantee that in that short 10 minutes, he saw the revolving lantern of life.

"Have a sip of tea, don't be surprised." Weixi said as he poured a cup of scented tea from the teapot on the table, and handed it to Alai.

"Thank you." Alai said in a hoarse voice, he took the teacup dumbly, and his screams were still echoing in his mind.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that his clothes were still wet and covered with Ned's saliva.

"I'm sorry, Lai, I'm just too happy." Ned, who had turned back into a human form, lowered his head and apologized softly beside Alai.

"..." Alai ignored Ned and took a sip of hot tea from his teacup.The aroma of scented tea somewhat refreshed him, and he put the cup back on the table in silence.The sound of the bottom of the cup hitting the stone table made Ned tremble.

"Excuse me, where is the locker room? I want to change clothes." Alai asked Weixi.All he wanted to do now was to change out of his wet clothes. As for Ned, he felt that he was getting used to his unreliability.

"Is it because of... saliva? My magic is water-based. If you don't mind, I can clean your clothes for you." Weixi couldn't help but smile a little.

"No need, I'll change it." Alai refused. He really needed a change of clothes, and perhaps a little time alone, so that he could rest assured and have a nervous breakdown.

"Then I'll let 'Sparkle' take you there." Wei Xi waved at 'Sparkle', motioning for it to take Ah Lai to the dressing room downstairs.

"Thank you." Alai stood up from the sofa, stretched out a hand to Ned, and signaled with his eyes: Here, I know you put several pieces of my clothes in your space. ?

Ned squatted on the spot, tilted his head, and put his hand on Alai's outstretched hand.

Is it for a handshake?

"Who wants to shake hands with you, clothes, give me my clothes." Alai stretched out his hand again, pulled his shirt from Ned's hand, and was about to follow Shining to the locker room.

Ned hurriedly stood up, followed Alai's footsteps and moved a few times, wanting to go with him, but Alai's eyes fixed him on the spot.

"Tell me, when he comes back, I'll apologize to him again, will he forgive me?" Ned watched as Alai walked out of the room without looking back, and kept watching him go around the corridor until he disappeared. He turned to Weixi and asked.

"You can try it, but to be honest, I would be very angry if I was suddenly flying around in the sky with my mouth in my mouth." Weixi sat back beside Nino and replied helplessly spreading his hands.

"This time you went too far." Nino raised his eyes and followed.

"Then what should I do now? Why on earth would I do such a thing!" At that time, I was impulsive and rushed out with Alai in my mouth without even thinking about it. As soon as I flew out of the window, I heard Alai's screaming, Why did you think that the cry meant that Alai was as happy as him?

Don't they all say that the human race has a poor memory?Is it possible that Alai can...forget about this matter when he comes back after changing his clothes?

Ned prayed from the bottom of his heart, and squatted back to the corner of the sofa.

After a while, Alai came back after changing his clothes.His mental state looked significantly better than before, and his hair had returned to its original neat state.

"Sorry, I was rude just now." Alai said to Nino and Weixi.Obviously, he came here to ask others for help, but after asking a lot of questions, Ned finally made this kind of thing again.After calming down, I really feel super ashamed!

What the hell did he do in other people's houses...

"No, please don't feel sorry, these things are all my brother's fault, and he should be the one who should apologize." Nino said calmly, and glanced at Ned as he spoke.

"I'm sorry." Ned finally got on the strings after receiving the signal, bowed his head and closed his eyes, put his palms together and raised his head above his head, and apologized again in one go.

……

After not hearing a reply for a long time, Ned quietly raised his head, and opened one eye in Alai's direction. The golden pupil was almost on fire under the afterglow of the setting sun, showing a different seriousness from usual.

"This is not an example." Alai sighed, and finally said to Ned.After all, he was at brother Ned's house, so he didn't have the strength to be angry anymore today.This time, I will put it on the account first, and then I will settle it with him slowly when I go back.

"Hmm!" 'There won't be a next time,' thought Ned, nodding solemnly.What happened last time was the same, and what happened this time was also good, he didn't want to see Ah Lai who was pale and angry at him again.

"It seems that you two are all right? It's almost time for dinner. If you don't mind, stay for a light meal." Weixi looked at Alai and Ned, and interjected with a smile.

"No need, we've been bothering you for a long time, it's time to go back." Alai replied slightly shaking his head.Today is enough trouble, now he just wants to go home honestly, maybe he can call Bell tomorrow and ask about the company.

"Don't be polite to us, it's rare for you to come, and I've already told them to get ready." Wei Xi stood up from the sofa, and looked at Alai with those clear and bright blue eyes.

"The last time the two brothers met was the year before last. They always need a light meal. Besides, I also want to chat with you more."

Alai, Alai compromised.

It's too difficult, it's really too difficult to refuse, Wei Xi's eyes are too lethal.

"Okay, then excuse me." Alai pulled up and was still squatting on the ground. Ned followed Vichy and moved to the restaurant together.

***

In the center of the blue-golden hall, there is a long table that can seat more than [-] guests at the same time. The table is decorated with blue and white flowers.

The polished silver knives and forks reflected the pure gold mural above the zenith, and the candlelight and the crystal goblet on the table reflected each other, creating a sense of luxury.

What about the 'light meal'?This posture is more than enough for a banquet, okay?Seriously, Mr. Vesey, do you have any misunderstanding about the word 'light meal'?

Amidst Alai's rants, everyone sat down at one end of the dining table, and Weixi nodded with satisfaction, telling 'Xing Shan' to serve the meal.

The latest model intelligent robot 'waiter' held the bottle and poured champagne for everyone, and the clear wine was bubbling in the glass.

"Alai, Ned, welcome again." Wei Xi, who was sitting opposite, raised his glass as a gesture.

A Lai raised his glass slightly to salute. The champagne was slightly sour, but more nutty and floral.He took another sip, slowly relaxing with the help of alcohol.

Isn't it just a meal, there is no need to be nervous.Thinking of this, Ah Lai glanced at Ned who was sitting on his left. Ned was frowning, and he simply pushed away the glass of champagne, not seeming to like the taste of it very much.

Um!At times like this, he should learn from Ned, who is thick-skinned.

Appetizers were brought, and the sea bream broth was made into fish jelly.A Lai smelled it, and there was no fishy smell, but a citrus scent.

He picked up the spoon and scooped up half a spoonful, and the milky white transparent fish jelly swayed and melted on the tip of Alai's tongue.It tastes sweet and sour, a bit like fruit pudding, which is very appetizing.

"How is it? Are you still used to it? I don't know what you like, so I just prepared according to the usual taste." Weixi put down the wine glass, wiped the corners of his mouth, and asked Alai.

"It tastes good, thank you for the hospitality." Alai quickly swallowed the fish jelly in his mouth and replied.

So do they eat like this every day?Alai looked at Weixi's back that naturally straightened while eating, and felt a little admiration for some reason.

The champagne was removed, and the 'waiter' changed a glass for Alai, and poured white wine again.

This time Alai's movements were much more natural. He picked up the glass and took a sip. The taste was much sweeter than the champagne just now, and it also had a pear aroma, which seemed like a taste that Ned would like.

Thinking of this, Alai looked at the wine glass in Ned's hand, and sure enough, the glass was already empty.

The plate of fish jelly was removed, and the 'waiter' brought up a plate of cod fish steaks. Alai turned his attention away from Ned, and subconsciously scraped the surface of the fish steaks with a knife.

The crispy meringue was easily cut open, and Alai dipped a fork in the sauce made of beef and cherry vinegar, and finished the whole fish steak in two or three bites.

"So, do you plan to make up a contract ceremony with Ned?" Weixi asked Alai curiously during the interval when the next dish was served.If possible, he would be very willing to help Alai and the others organize a grand ceremony.

"You don't need this, it's fine now." Hearing Weixi's question, Alai, who was drinking, almost choked, and he hastily rejected Weixi's proposal.

"What about you, Ned? Do you think so? I think it's better to hold a ceremony." Nino, who was sitting next to Weixi and drinking quietly, put down his glass and said to Ned.

It's a pity that I couldn't witness my brother's ceremony. How can there be no ceremony for a once-in-a-lifetime contract?

"Well... Actually, I can do whatever I want." Ned raised his head from the plate and gave Alai a questioning look.

No, no, Alai looked back at Ned with a smile on his face, and stretched out his hand under the table to grab Ned's shirt hem desperately. ?

Does this mean no?Why did you secretly tear his clothes?Ned blinked his eyes for no reason. Although he didn't quite understand what Alai was doing, he still rejected Nino's proposal.

"It's good that we do this." Ned changed his words.After speaking, he took a look at Ah who let out a long sigh of relief, buried his head in the plate again, and started to eat the fish steak.

Nino frowned, looked at Ned who started to eat again, opened and closed his mouth, and didn't know what to say for a moment.Does his younger brother understand what it means not to hold a ceremony?For the Dragon Clan, this is not a trivial matter.

Weixi next to him seemed to see something, turned around, put his hand around Nino's arm, smiled at him, and signaled him to leave it alone, Ned naturally had his own thoughts.
