That night, the Helis family.

Since Miss Lacey of the Caritas family was going to visit tonight, the Helis family had made all kinds of preparations, and it was supposed that they should have come to apologize, but Miss Lacey sent a message saying that it was not necessary, and that she would visit herself tonight.

The door of the courtyard was open, and the clean and soft carpet had already been laid, because it was heard that Loraine Hill liked to be quiet, so the Helis family did not invite other guests, only their own servants and guards lined up neatly in the courtyard.

The door of the carriage opened, and Loren Hill wore a rare black dress, the pure black skirt contrasted with the fair skin, and the black lace skirt and cuffs also added a strange charm to it, and she stepped out of the carriage, even the shoes were small black leather shoes, and the shoes were pure white silk stockings.

"Miss Lacey of the Karitas Chamber of Commerce has arrived~"

As the attendants at the door shouted, some melodious music sounded on both sides of the courtyard, and about 20 violinists stood on both sides of the carpet, pulling up the strings, and the soothing sound of the violin sounded, like butterflies flying among the leaves.

Lorain Hill's blue pupils swept lightly, these men were gorgeously dressed, skillful, and their faces did not look like locals, they should have been temporarily invited by the Helis family, and they really had a heart.

With a slight sigh in his heart, the door of the Helis family mansion opened, revealing a brightly lit hall, and its head Hoss and his eldest daughter Meilu stood at the door to greet him.

"Welcome Miss Lacey, we've been waiting for a long time."

The somewhat balding head of the house, Hoss, led Lorain Hill into the hall, first led him to sit down, then clapped his palms, and the girls in the dance skirts entered through the side door, they wore red dresses in one row, and the other in blue dresses, carrying long skirts, and with each step, they turned their skirts once, and the silver patches of the skirts shone in the light, and then another burst of music followed, this time not only the 20 violinists outside the courtyard sat down to play, but there was also a pianist and a dozen wind musicians in the hall.

To the beat of the music, the dancers sometimes stand on tiptoe, sometimes turn their skirts, forming a huge concentric circle on the dance floor of the hall, and then with the change of the music, a huge flower is formed, in which the blue and red petals sometimes bloom and sometimes close, and finally with the curtain call of the music, the outermost dancers lie on their backs, the middle is leaning their bodies, and the inner circle is raising their arms like stamens.

Lorain Hill sat on the couch on the steps, and in front of him was a coffee table with some fruit and chilled juice.

It's really a good dance, and I'm a little admired, but that's all. For her, who has seen all kinds of light and shadow special effects in the era of science and technology, and a large-scale singing and dancing party of hundreds of people, this is really not surprising. But let's give the Helis family a face, she slightly agreed.

The head of the Helis family, Hoss, seemed very happy, believing that the performance he had paid for had paid for a result, while Loren Hill had just failed to show it out of reserve.

Merry shook her head secretly when she saw her father's demeanor, for this Miss Lacey, when they first met, they only thought that her appearance was unparalleled in the world, and then Lacey set a new joint project with other chambers of commerce to wake her up, and the subsequent assassination made her a little afraid of this beautiful eldest lady.

I really don't know how this Miss Lacey grew up, I have never heard of her reputation, but she is extremely skilled in business, as can be seen from a series of recent performances of Carites, and even has a faint tendency to surpass Angus's reign, not only did not flourish and decline, but had the tendency to take off.

But in business, I am very experienced, and I have never heard of any academic school that can be successful, and it depends more on talent and knowledge. This is also what makes Meilu puzzled, and Lacey's skills are definitely not weak, so it feels like there is at least sequence 4? She guessed.

Constantly thinking about how to face this Miss Lacey, Meilu saw her father's stupid appearance of feeling good about herself, and her head began to ache faintly.

Hoss is indeed a good father and a good parent, but as the head of the family, he is a little shrewd, and he can often mention it when the old family head is in power, and then after the death of his grandfather, that is, the eldest daughter Meilu took on the role of the family's think tank.

But a daughter is a daughter after all, what she can do is limited, and the power in the chamber of commerce is gradually dispersed by several other uncles, showing a trend of not being able to lose the tail.

"Niece Lacey, your father and I were very good friends back then, and we often drank together, and this time it was my uncle who didn't manage the guards at home, I hope you don't mind."

Father actually wanted to expose it so easily, Mei Lu's eyes widened slightly, a little incredulous, it was an assassination, the other party almost died, once it was not good, the two families would fight again.

"Although you have befriended us Karitas, it was a generation ago, and I don't know very well. Besides, the guards of the Helis family used their swords in the street, which almost killed me, causing the entire chamber of commerce to fall apart, do you think such an apology is enough? ”

Sure enough, Lacey refuses to reconcile so easily, because it is tantamount to an insult.

"This ...... Niece Lacey, no, Miss Lacey, are you going to ....... then" Hoss was a little puzzled, wasn't it still a smiling and cheerful atmosphere just now, why was it suddenly like this.

"Father, you're tired too, so let me come." Meilu stood up and saluted slightly, then walked over to her father and whispered persuasion.

Hoss was a little self-aware and knew that his daughter was smarter, so he simply let go, saying that he was a little sleepy, and then let Merry talk to Lacey.

As Hoss left, only the two eldest ladies were left in the huge hall, Lacey and Merlou, and a light rain began to fall outside the hall, and the rain continued to drip from the eaves, hitting the marble steps, and the fine rain curtain covered the scenery outside the house, which seemed a little blurry. Occasionally, the sea breeze blows, the rain slopes, and some drift into the hall, bringing a little coolness.

Meru fiddled with the charcoal fire in the oven and refilled Lacey's teacup with hot tea before sitting down to resume conversation.

"I'm very sorry Miss Lacey, what happened that day was that our family was negligent in managing and let the guards be bribed by outsiders."

"I know." Lacey held the teacup, her hair falling on the pure black dress, and unexpectedly affirmed.

"So, I would like to ask what position the Helis family stands for, whether they stand with us Karitas, as they have done in the past, or whether they want to remain neutral and stand alone. Or maybe you have decided to stand against us. ”

Lacey's blue transparent pupils looked directly at Meilu, no longer giving her room to dodge.
