Rebellion in Shanghai

A few days later in the morning, VV and CC had breakfast together at the same table.

The crystal tabletop, a snow-white rose placed in a long-necked vase, and simple bread and milk all make this breakfast scene look warm and elegant, just like a slowly unfolding picture scroll.

After drinking the milky white fresh milk in the glass, VV picked up the snow-white square towel on her right hand and pressed the corner of her mouth, then looked playfully at CC who was sitting opposite her. It looks very smart.Today she was wearing a simple light yellow dress with a moon white lace shawl on her shoulders, which indicated that she would not go out today.

Playing with the white roses in the vase, VV smiled and said, "I saw Xia Lulu again at the ball last night. He was full of praise for you."

CC had just finished the last bite of breakfast, picked up the handkerchief, and casually glanced at VV, "Get to the point."

"I still want you to go on a blind date with his son, but it's not Lelouch." VV shrugged her shoulders, with a little slyness in her narrow eyes, "Speaking of which, it seems that you and that kid Lelouch haven't seen each other for a long time. Have you met?"

After wiping the corners of his mouth with a square towel, CC stood up slowly, "In this case, you can arrange it, and it's better to solve it at once." Thinking of Xiu Zenier who had met once, CC frowned in disgust. The man with a hypocritical smile is annoying, "Xia Lulu is very concerned about this family business." After all, CC and VV are now the orphans of the late No. [-] cloth merchant in Jiangnan.

VV smiled because of her words, half jokingly said: "He wished I would give all my family property to your sister as a dowry!"

Too lazy to dwell on this boring question, CC turned around and walked directly to her room on the second floor. She was going to go back and catch up on another "beauty sleep"!

Seeing that the opportunity came, VV leisurely threw out the "finishing touch" sentence, "I also heard that Xia Lulu intends to let your Lelouchi marry the Xia family's daughter Xiali."

As VV thought, CC Jiaoli's back froze, and then she entered the room without looking back, and slammed the door.

Seeing such a scene, VV smiled willfully and capriciously, and then she seemed to think of some good idea, and the beautiful light like the midday stream surged in her eyes.

A week later, VV personally facilitated the blind date between CC and Huzner.At the same time, because of his suggestion, Xia Lulu put Lelouch and Xia Li's date together, and the location was set in a teahouse by the river. The name of the teahouse was very novel and unique, called "Red Mansion".

Standing in front of the window at the end of the corridor, Lelouch took a deep puff of his cigar, and then exhaled a pale smoke ring.The misty white mist slowly circled above his head, like a dance.Ever since Xia Lulu told him about the meeting in the red building, his thoughts have been scattered, and his heart seems to be blocked by a mess, and he can't figure out a clue no matter what.

"Brother." A delicate female voice suddenly sounded beside Lelouch. Nunnally, dressed in a water pink dress, walked lightly to his side, looked at him and smiled, "I rarely see my brother so troubled. What does it look like?"

Putting out the cigar on the edge of the window sill, Lelouch gave Nunnally a gentle smile, "It's okay, Nunnally don't have to worry."

Shaking her little head, Nunnally blinked her big eyes and stared at Lelouch, "No, I'm not worried, brother."

This time, Lelouch looked at Nunnally without knowing what he was thinking. For this sister who had been dependent on him since childhood, Lelouch could only love her wholeheartedly, even if she wanted the moon in the sky, he I will try my best to get it for her.

Nunnally's eyes showed a little bit of cute cunning, "Brother's troubles are related to the beautiful sister we saw at the ball that day, right?"

Astonishment flashed across Lu Luxiu's face. After he realized it, he smiled and stretched out his hand to rub his sister's soft, curly long brown hair noncommittally.

Smiling cutely at her brother, Nunnally turned her head to look out of the window, and murmured, "That sister has an aura very similar to her brother. Brother, do you like her?"

The day to meet in the red building will soon arrive, and the specific time is set at two o'clock in the afternoon.

The third floor of Xia's Villa is a space specially prepared for the young miss Xia Li. At this time, the sound of ping-pong-pong and the woman's shrill yelling can be heard upstairs.

"No! This one is not ladylike!... This one is not good either, the color is not beautiful enough!... No, this dress is too plain..." There were endless voices like this.At this time, Xia Li was standing in a room wearing an ordinary household dress, and many dresses were scattered on the ground and chairs around her.

"Miss, do you think this dress is good?" A little slave girl about fourteen or fifteen years old tremblingly found out an orange cheongsam and handed it to Xia Li, looking at her gloomy face timidly.

Xia Li just glanced at the cheongsam before throwing it to the ground, and said angrily, "No, no, no! This dress won't work either!"

The male master of the Xia family, who was sitting in the living room on the first floor drinking tea with his wife, couldn't help shaking his head when he heard his daughter's voice upstairs, and said to his wife, "Do you think we spoiled our daughter too much?"

Mrs. Xia also glanced upstairs, then comforted her husband and said, "It's all right, whose lady is not petty, Xia Li is already fine."

There was nothing to do today, so VV didn't go out. After lunch, she stayed on the first floor and read today's latest newspaper. It wasn't until 01:30 that she saw CC come out of her room on the second floor.

Raising her head and looking at CC casually, VV said to her jokingly: "Don't you need to make up yourself, today you are going to meet two men and a rival in love."

Walking past VV with her neck up, CC lowered her head and glanced at him nonchalantly, "Do I need it?"

Indeed, CC does not need to bother to do anything. VV sized her up a few times and agreed with her words from the bottom of her heart.

CC is still wearing her favorite cheongsam today, but the cheongsam is warm and bright red, with tiny patterns embroidered on the skirt, and a row of butterfly-shaped buttons piled up from the neck, which looks chic and charming.Her long jade-colored hair was tied up as always, and a crystal hairpin was adorned obliquely.Even without deliberate decoration, CC is still beautiful and compelling.

Even the picky VV has to admit that CC is the only woman in Shanghai who can wear the cheongsam so eye-catchingly.So, even if she doesn't deliberately dress herself up, she can still steal everyone's attention.

After thinking about it, VV put down the newspaper in his hand and stood up, "Why don't I take you there?"
