Chapter 46: The New Year's Dinner
Jean sent Reggilla away, and the entire Commander's Mansion seemed to be restored to its previous cleanliness all at once. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The only difference is probably that Ning Hua's attitude towards the commander is more respectful. Probably clearly aware of her identity as a "commander's maidservant", she paid special attention to the rules of the maid.
Lu Xiu was keenly aware of Ning Hua's alienation from him, but he had no way at all.
Ning Hua followed the instructions of the military medical officer Gail and began to massage Lu Xiu's legs and feet every night. Gail wasn't at ease enough with her, and every time she had a massage, she was staring at her.
Therefore, the rare opportunity to shorten the distance between the two was delayed by Gail.
Soon it will be the New Year's dinner. On the last day of December, the sky cleared after several days of snow, and the entire imperial capital was lit up, revealing a strong New Year's atmosphere.
Just after noon, Jean informed Ning Hua to change into her dress earlier, and her hairstylist had arrived to do her hair.
Ning Hua, who had changed her clothes and made a hairstyle, amazed Jean as soon as she appeared, and Jean blushed and praised her sincerely: "Ning Hua, you really look good when you dress up." ”
Ning Hua pursed his lips and smiled: "You look very good in a dress, I see you wearing a uniform every day, and I almost can't recognize you when I change your outfit today." ”
Jean scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled: "By the way, His Highness is already waiting for the aircraft, let's go over quickly." ”
Ning Hua nodded, but the heels she wore today were too high, and she was a little tired when she walked.
Out of the hall, Ning Hua saw Lu Xiu standing next to the flying machine at a glance, wearing a black dress and a tall posture. He was talking to Primo at the moment.
Ning Hua walked over and saluted him, Lu Xiu nodded at her, and turned around to continue listening to Primo.
When she got on the flying machine, Ning Hua gave her a slight look, and Lu Xiu, who was standing on the side, immediately stretched out his hand to pull her, but Jean was already quick to help Ning Hua first. After Ning Hua stood firm, he thanked Jean and didn't see Lu Xiu's hand stretched out and withdrawn.
After sitting down on the aircraft, Ning Hua heard that Primo was still instructing Lu Xiu: "Your Highness, in addition to being careful not to stand for too long, you should pay more attention to the food at the banquet, eat less raw and cold, which is conducive to your body maintenance." There is also a toast to drink less, every year at the New Year's dinner as long as there are adults from the major legions to attend, you will drink more, this year is not more than before, Your Highness your leg injury has not fully recovered, you must not drink too much and then compete with others at will. ”
Lu Xiu let out a non-serious "um" without the slightest impatience.
Primo continued: "Jean, that stinky boy, if you drink too much, leave him in the venue, leave him alone, and go to the room on the ninety-ninth floor to rest by yourself." ”
Lu Xiu thought about Jean's quick eyes just now, and said "good" to Primo. When Jean heard this, he immediately made an indignant look: "Your Highness, can you ignore your subordinates, every time your subordinates drink too much, it's to help you block the wine." ”
Lu Xiu glanced at him, and Jean immediately fell silent.
Primo snorted at Jean: "Your wine is not good, don't disgrace Your Highness." ”
Jean glanced at Lu Xiu, and then made a bitter gourd face at Primo.
At the entrance of the venue of the celebration banquet and New Year's dinner, a large number of media had already set up their positions, and a large number of people gathered around the venue, waiting for their commander to appear. Lu Xiu stepped off the aircraft, and immediately there was a tsunami-like shout. Ning Hua followed behind Lu Xiu and experienced the surging enthusiasm of the people up close for the first time.
After Lu Xiu stood still, he waved to the people in all directions, and every time Lu Xiu waved his hand, the shouts became more turbulent. After a long time, Lu Xiu walked towards the venue.
Ning Hua followed Lu Xiu into the venue, and everyone in the venue had already stood up in front of their respective seats, applauding to welcome the commander's arrival.
Lu Xiu had a smile on his face, and in the limelight, he walked to his place.
After a long speech, from important members of the National Assembly to senior military and political officials, after a speech, it was finally the turn of the commander, Lu Xiu first awarded the medals to the representatives of the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions on the battlefield of Alver, and then made a look forward to the future of the Leeds system, and then he announced the end of the meeting, and asked everyone to move to the leisure area to start tonight's carnival.
Dana was the Commander's handpicked choice for the opening dance, and with the music, he and Princess Mulling both went down to the dance floor to kick off the evening's revelry.
Ning Hua stood in the crowd, watching Dana and Mu Ling dance, and she deliberately looked at Princess Mu Ling, the "yellow-haired girl" in Dana's mouth. Sure enough, Princess Mu Ling is not a "yellow-haired girl" at all, on the contrary, she has black hair, and she looks very aura, dressed in a blue light veil, the skin is as white as jade, and her eyes are even bigger.
Looking at Dana again, Ning Hua's familiar smile was still on his face, and he was holding Princess Mu Ling's waist gentlemanly. Ning Hua watched the two spin tacitly on the dance floor, and felt that they were a perfect match.
Dana and Mu Ling's song ended, and there was applause around them, Dana held Mu Ling's hand with his left hand, and his right hand was behind his back, bending down to the crowd to thank him, and Mu Ling also gently lifted her blue gauze skirt, bent her knees slightly, and thanked the crowd.
After the opening dance, the party officially began.
The symphony orchestra played a new piece on the stage, and soon there were pairs of young men and women on the dance floor, whirling and swinging to the music.
Ning Hua searched around for Lu Xiu's figure, and saw that he was laughing with a group of people in the hall next to the dance floor at the moment, and the place where he was standing was crowded and lively. Even Jean was surrounded by men, and he and they beat each other on the shoulder, like good brothers.
Although Ning Hua was dressed in gorgeous clothes, she felt that she was out of place here, and she was very out of place. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, you can see that there is a garden and a fountain outside the banquet hall, which is also decorated with lights, but there are no people. Ning Hua wanted to go outside for a walk, but unfortunately in order to perfectly accept the enthusiasm of the people outside the venue with the commander, she took off her coat and jacket on the flying machine, and now she wanted to go out, and she was a little afraid of the cold.
When he was hesitating, a cordial greeting came from his ears: "Xiao Ninghua." ”
Ning Hua turned around, and sure enough, it was Dyna. She immediately showed a smile to Dana: "It's you, I just saw you dancing with Princess Mu Ling, it's very beautiful, it's right." ”
Dana flicked her head affectionately: "What's right?" Can't speak. ”
Ning Hua smiled and took out the communicator: "Look for yourself, I just took a shot." ”
Dina leaned over and saw a photo of him and Mu Ling dancing on the screen of Ninghua's communicator, which was the movement of Mu Ling lying in his arms and leaning his head back, one of Mu Ling's calves was bent and attached to his waist, and the faces of the two were facing each other, both with perfect smiles, judging from the photo, it was indeed the appearance of a pair of beautiful people.
Dana smiled and took out his communicator as well: "Show you another picture." ”
Ning Hua took Dyna's communicator and looked at it, it turned out to be a photo of the two of them dancing at the Alston celebration banquet before. In the picture, Diner hugged Ning Hua and smiled softly, but Ning Hua's eyes were staring at the high-rise cake in the distance.
Ning Hua looked at the photo and smiled a little embarrassed: "I was very hungry that night, but I didn't have a chance to eat." ”
"Then don't be hungry tonight, I'll take you over there to eat." Dana bent his elbow and motioned for Ning Hua to take his arm.
"Ah, the heels I'm wearing tonight are really high, so I can help you walk." As he spoke, he gently grabbed Dyna's arm, but before he could take two steps, Sid immediately appeared and blocked their way: "Dyna, long time no see." ”
A sincere smile appeared on Dana's face: "Your Highness Sid, I haven't seen you for a long time, you won't blame me for bringing Tis without permission, right?" ”
Sid glanced in the direction of the dance floor and replied faintly, "How so." ”
Ning Hua looked in Sid's direction, and saw Teese standing on the edge of the dance floor, looking at Sid stupidly.
