Chapter 74: Freedom was kidnapped
After a sleepless night, when the tiredness hit, she only felt that she had closed her eyes for a while, and the sky was already bright.
The old housekeeper personally came to deliver breakfast, and she was very polite in the conversation, which made her extremely uncomfortable.
"Butler, please don't be polite."
"Young Master Mu Xuan, you are a distinguished guest of our castle, this is what we should do. I wonder if the second young master has woken up? ”
She frowned, young master! When did she become a young master?
"Yueqi may not be able to wake up these days. Butler, you're really too polite, I'm not used to it. You know, Shijie outside is already the 21st century, so don't call me that, just call me by my name. She labored to explain.
"Alright then, please slow down for breakfast. The eldest young master said, if you are okay, please go and meet yesterday's guests, they are going back today. He put down his breakfast and said.
"I see, xiexie, your butler." She nodded.
After the housekeeper left, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked Xiao Bu to come out to eat. Xin said: "I originally wanted to earn a cake to eat, but I didn't expect so many things to happen, and I actually saw the legendary 'big demon'." And Yueqi's birthday can only be spent in her sleep. ”
On his birthday, he only received a blessing text message from his little sister, and when he saw that other people's birthdays ended so dismally, he suddenly felt balanced.
She was still quite curious about the mysterious guest last night, who was the person who ran faster than her? I think that at the beginning, she practiced hard in line with the principle of running if she couldn't fight, isn't human potential really inferior to modern high technology in some aspects?
With this thought, she couldn't get rid of it, and wanted to meet this guest. After talking to Yueli, someone soon came over and took her to the place where the castle in front of her was a guest.
The castle in front of her was completely Western-style, and walking in it was like stepping back in time to the Middle Ages in the West, and someone led her to the door of a small parlor and left.
Before she could knock, the door opened, and Yueli smiled at her, "You're here, the guest just talked about you." With that, he pulled her into the living room.
Her instincts told her that she seemed to have fallen into the pit he had dug again. didn't care about intimidating him with his eyes, so he was pulled into the living room.
It's a private living room, small in size, but comfortably furnished. Firewood burned in the fireplace, and every now and then there was a "crackling" sound.
A casually dressed but elegant man who stood up from the round table asked, "Who is this?" ”
Just after Lin Zixin came in, another person next to him had a nose fluttering as if he was sniffing something.
Presumably these were the two guests, a Westerner with black hair and red eyes and a very fair face, who was tall and did not have the sunshine of a young man, and looked a little gloomy, but more like a gentleman. Red Pupil's words are the person who attacked her last night, but I didn't expect to be able to greet her so unchanged.
The other, who was a little familiar, knew why he felt familiar after taking two steps. What a coincidence, it was the handsome blonde guy who invited her for a drink in the bar. But today, he looks a little embarrassed, his face is very pale, one arm is still hanging with a bandage, is he injured?
"Ah, I'm sorry, my name is Alan." Alan saw that she didn't answer immediately and said it again in Chinese, and the tone and pronunciation were quite clear.
Lin Zixin smiled and replied in English: "It's okay, I understand." Before she practiced English, it was one of the two foreign languages she mastered, and it didn't bother her.
She had already prepared a haode seat for her, and there was a table away from the two of them. The waiter had already served tea, and she knew it was Tieguanyin as soon as she smelled it, and she didn't know if these two foreigners were used to drinking it.
The other party also sat back down, and Alan said, "That's great! ”
Only then could he take a good look at her, but he found that he couldn't see through, he couldn't see the eyes that made him vigilant, everything was like she was acting in front of people, as if this was the appearance of the person in front of him. But he won't believe it, because eyes are often deceiving.
Just when Alan looked at Lin Zixin, the little one in her arms was not stable at all, and one was accidentally stumbled onto the table by it, purring in his mouth.
"What's wrong with you, little one?" She asked.
"Mom, I don't like the two of them." A small voice came to my head.
Alan didn't make any small moves, and kept drinking tea elegantly, but the one next to him was not calm. Hurriedly put down the teacup and retracted his hand: "Oh! ”
Yueli then said, "I forgot to tell you. Then he shouted into the window in the living room, "Night! ”
A black cat jumped in through the window, stared at the two guests with bright eyes, meowed at the little one, and then went back the way it came.
Xiao Budian said to her, "Mom, it said there is a fun place to take me, I'll go and see it." With that, it ran away in the blink of an eye.
Lin Zixin smiled awkwardly at them, "I'm sorry, my cat is more afraid of people." ”
"Oh, your cat is so fierce!" The handsome blonde guy returned to normal and said, "My name is George, so you are what they said Mu Xuan?" ”
She frowned, but still said politely, "Hello, George." ”
"Is Mu Xuan famous, how do they know?" She asked Yueli.
"It seems like yes. Because you didn't go to the last party initiated by Ming Yuzhe, since then most people know your name. Yueli replied.
She opened her mouth slightly in surprise, "What do you mean by the vast majority of people!?" ”
Alan kept looking at their expressions, what were they talking about? Oriental people are mysterious in these places," what are the two whispering? He asked with a smile as he put down his teacup.
Lin Zixin looked at his pair of squinting eyes and said, "I'm asking when did my name become so famous?" ”
"Oh, that's true, it's better to be famous than to meet!" He said.
"Your Chinese is very good." She complimented her at the right time.
Yueli explained apologetically, "It was Ming Yuzhe who made the ghost, and he praised you at the last party as something that there is nothing in heaven and on earth." And he also classified you as a member of our family, and even more so about the theme of the next meeting, and if you don't show up as he asks, tell everyone the address of your house. ”
She laughed angrily, "This dead boy, next time he must be beaten so that he can't get up!" Why is the heart eye so bad? ”
"Huh? Dead child! In Alan's opinion, the person in front of him also belongs to the category of children.
George suddenly asked her: "Mu Xuan, are you a cross-dresser, the young master of the Ming family really knows everything." ”
"What?"
"Huh! We've seen that before, right? Without waiting for her to answer, she suddenly realized, "Last time you were dressed so beautifully, my eyes were deceived by you!" No wonder I fainted in a blink of an eye, so that's the case. ”
Lin Zixin felt that he had no reason to recognize herself in the bar, but she didn't take off her beanie hat and wore wide glasses.
"I think you've mistaken someone, we're meeting for the first time today. And by cross-dressing, what do you mean? She asked rhetorically.
George grinned, "I promise that's you, although I didn't see your face, the smell you exude can't fool me, it's still that good!" After saying that, his nose made a vigorous sniffing motion.
After saying this, not only Lin Zixin but even Yueli frowned visibly and looked at him unkindly.
"George!" Alan stood up and daoqian to her. "Please forgive him for being rude."
She laughed, "George's nose is really good, he's a dog." "There is no admission and no objection, let them guess.
George also knew that it was a bit rude to say this, and hurriedly added: "This is also what the young master of the Ming family said. You'll have to go to his party next time, and it's a masquerade. You know, this is the most attractive party, no one knows what kind of face is under the mask, maybe the beautiful woman dancing with you will be a man, it's exciting to think about. ”
"Really? I really don't know when I became a member of your family. She said lightly to Yueli.
"It's just the words of Ming Yuzhe's family, just talking. How can you be from our family, we are friends, don't get me wrong. After he finished speaking, he took the tea and drank it, wondering if he was hiding something.
"That's right, isn't it advocating free speech?" Alan really wanted what he said to be true, and neither of them wanted another difficult master in the other family.
Lin Zixin smiled, "Really, is it so important for children to play at a party?" What if I don't attend. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, George gave her another make-up lesson, "Oh, dear Mu Xuan, you can't say that. In order to celebrate Ming Yuzhe's physical recovery, the head of the Ming family deliberately took over two gatherings and released them in his name. In fact, this is a kind of competition between the young people of the major families on the earth, and the young people who emerge at the meeting will be favored by the family, and they may not be able to become the next head of the family. So don't underestimate these nominal gatherings, everyone will rush to hold them, this is a good opportunity to show their strength. ”
"So, I have to go to the next party?" She asked depressedly.
All three nodded, but their expressions were different. There was happiness in Yueli's seemingly apologetic smile; Allen smiled gentlemanly and seemed to encourage her; The simplest is George, looking forward to a good show with a smile.
"There are still three months to go, so you can prepare slowly, and if you don't have clothes, I can provide them to you." George said.
"What do you mean?"
Yueli coughed, "It's my luck that I got you a very special outfit." With that, he handed him a photograph.
It is indeed a very distinctive outfit, a very beautiful outfit to be precise, but it is a little embarrassing when you think of his identity in front of people.
She glanced at it and pushed the photo over, "It's better for yourself, I won't wear it." After saying that, she didn't want to continue the topic, so she asked Alan. Did you find something last night? ”
Allen's smile froze for a moment, and he smiled, "It's all George's fault, he lost my favorite thing; So he was punished and kept looking for it at night, and as a result, he hurt himself like this, but Zuihou still couldn't find it. ”
"I'm sorry!" Yueli said, "If I had known earlier, I could have asked everyone to help find it." ”
"Thank you so much! If anyone finds it, please bring it to me next time, and I will thank you very much! Alan said gratefully.
