Chapter 148: Trickery
On the top floor of the Century Building, Duke Sulan sat in the venue that was being set up, supervising the comings and goings of the servants to prepare for the ball.
Seeing a maid holding a white rose on the escalator in the corridor, he stood up and walked over and scolded her loudly: "How many times have you said that the queen likes red roses and not white roses, and you still use this kind of flower, do you want to touch the mold?"
The little girl was obviously not deeply involved in the world, and was frightened by the angry duke, and knelt down with tears: "Duke, I was wrong, I didn't hear clearly, I only said that I wanted roses, and subconsciously thought it was a white rose, and the duke forgave me." ”
Duke Sulan glared at her, and shouted into the hall again, "Who is in charge of these maids?"
After a while, an older woman trotted over, and when she saw this scene, she knelt down in fear: "I am, Duke, what is wrong?"
"I can't handle any trivial matter, and I need to come in person," Su Lan gritted her teeth, and pointed to the maid who made a mistake just now and said: "Who found such a reckless subordinate? I don't even know that the queen doesn't like white roses the most? Is this because I want so many people to bury her!"
The middle-aged woman looked at the maid beside her who had been shaken into a sieve, the maid cast a look at her for help, the woman sighed, this maid was found by her, it was her maiden niece, she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make some oil and water, but she didn't expect her to make a mistake, and quickly kowtowed to Duke Sulan to admit her mistake.
"Duke, she is new here, and she doesn't know much about these things, don't worry, I will punish her well, don't be angry. ”
After that, he commanded another maid who was placing knives and forks next to him: "Kiki, quickly remove the white roses and go to the warehouse to find the red roses to replace them." ”
When the girl named Kiki heard this, she hurriedly put down the knife and fork in her hand and went to the warehouse to get the red roses.
The middle-aged woman then glared at her kneeling niece again, and took the opportunity to support her: "Why don't you go and help." ”
"Know...... I know," said the maid, trembling to her feet, and hurriedly followed her to the storeroom.
Duke Su Lan glanced at the middle-aged woman: "The queen cares about this ball the most, there must be no mistakes, if you let me see it, don't do it, go home directly." ”
"See, Duke, I will examine it carefully and not let go of the slightest mistake. The middle-aged woman raised her head and hurriedly assured him.
After that, Su Lan glanced at her with disgust: "Hurry up and get up, shame on you!"
"Father, what's going on?"
As soon as Zoe came to the Century Building, he found that Duke Sulan was furious, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, frowning and asking.
As soon as he saw Zoe, Duke Sulan's temper improved a little, and he slowly walked to the sofa and sat down with his support: "These subordinates don't let me feel at ease at all. ”
"Father, don't be angry, I'll take care of these things, you better go back to your room and rest. Zoe suggested earnestly.
Duke Su Lan waved his hand: "It's okay, I don't worry about these things, you came here, is there something wrong?"
Zoe smiled and sat down beside him, "Father, do you remember a woman from country Z named Coco Ann?"
"Coco?" Duke Sulan looked up and pondered for a moment, "But that day at the banquet, the girl that Mike provoked. ”
"Yes," Zoe nodded, "I found out that that girl has some unspeakable relationship with Mr. Cheng." ”
Duke Su Lan bowed: "That's right, I originally guessed that she had something to do with Mr. Cheng, and as I expected, Zoe, this person may play a vital role for us." ”
Zoe: "I know what my father meant, I was close to her last time at the party, and today she called me to ask me to do something, saying that a friend also wanted to come to the ball. ”
Zoe didn't tell Duke Su Lan everything, and the transaction with Cheng Yu was cleverly concealed by him, and what he said to the duke was also true and false, which made people guess untrue.
Duke Su Lan nodded appreciatively: "You have done a good job, it is very important to have a good relationship with that girl, as for the things she proposed, we must try our best to meet them." ”
"Since my father said the same, I went back and told her that you agreed to it. ”
Zoe got her father's permission and hurriedly stood up, trying to tell Encore about it.
Duke Sulan stopped him: "Wait, let me ask you, will she come if there is Miss Coco's name on the list?"
Zoe had no choice but to turn back and replied with a deep groan, "I double-checked the list, and it has her name on it." ”
"That's good, you go back first, and I'll talk about it when the dance party starts in the evening. ”
Duke Sulan waved his hand and motioned for him to leave.
Zoe nodded slightly. Walked to the door of the hall, opened the door and walked out.
Unbeknownst to them, what they said was heard by Mike, who was hiding behind the pillar, and he clapped his hands excitedly when he heard the important news.
After returning from the banquet a few days ago, he has been thinking about the mysterious girl that night, and only after many inquiries did he learn that she was an employee of Unilink.
Yesterday, a woman found her, and she was also very beautiful, but he didn't dare to act rashly, because the woman said that she was from the Cheng family.
Not only that, but she also revealed a message to him, telling him all the whereabouts of An Keke, asking him to use some means to keep An Keke for himself, and when the raw rice is cooked, she will persuade the Cheng family to cooperate with the Su Lan family.
Not only got a beauty, but also made meritorious contributions to the family, Mike agreed to her without even thinking about it.
Originally, he was still worried that he didn't have a chance to start, and he didn't want to come here, but he really gave him a chance in vain, and he extracted an important piece of information from the conversation between his father and brother: Ankeke will come to today's ball.
In other words, the ball is his territory, and since Ankeke is here, it is a sheep in the mouth of the tiger, and if he doesn't do something, he will waste a piece of goodwill from God.
Thinking of this, he hid behind the pillar and showed a triumphant smile, and without saying hello to Duke Sulan, he quietly left from behind the pillar.
As soon as he got out of his father's sight, he couldn't wait to call his attendant and ask for something very important.
Then he went to the door of the building and waited for someone to bring it to him, and in less than a quarter of an hour, a sneaky man came out of the street, saw Mike waiting outside the door, hurriedly greeted him, and quietly handed him a small bag of things:
"Master Mike, this is what you want. ”
Mike turned around and looked around, making sure there was no one, before taking the thing from him, raising an eyebrow and asking, "Does this thing really work?"
The person who came smiled obscenely: "Young master, you can rest assured, this medicine is very strong, no matter what kind of chaste martyr it is, if you encounter it, she can't wait to pounce on her, you don't have to bother at all." ”
"That's good," Mike showed a hint of a revealing smile, his eyes full of **, "That's what I want." ”
After that, he took out a stack of cash from his pocket and threw it to him: "This is your reward, keep your mouth shut." ”
"Don't worry," the man took the pile of banknotes with sincere fear, and took the initiative to say, "I have never seen an adult today, how can I give you medicine?"
"Okay," Mike squinted and nodded, "You go." ”
After speaking, he put the medicine in his pocket and entered the Century Building with his head tilted, wanting to plan what was going to happen in the evening.
