Chapter 134: Fifteen Days at Sea (9)
On the evening of January 7, there were still two days left before the ship arrived in Haimon.
At dinner time, in the banquet hall of the ship, Grace was still the most eye-catching.
As the most developed place in Heru's commodity economy, Vadan City has led the fashion trend of almost the entire Heru. When it comes to dressing, they are always on the front line.
Long ago, when the Vadan people were tired of the rough clothes made of linen and began to use smooth and delicate silk, the Chao people were still thinking about how to dye linen more efficiently. When the Vadan began to infuse their jewels with magical elements to make them shine like magic cores, the Wattan finally discovered that metal could be used as a weapon in addition to being decorative. On the one hand, the Chao people are unwilling to admit their ignorance and backwardness, and on the other hand, they are full of yearning for the rich life of the Wadan people.
Because of the large number of mercenaries, many Michao people return to their hometowns from Vataan every year. At this time, they would be surrounded by young juniors, chattering non-stop, and all the new things about the city of Vaddan became the object of their yearning.
It's like an old father who went to the city to work in the village and told a story to his curious son after returning to the village, and so on, generation after generation.
But even so, in Grace's opinion, the aesthetic of the Vadan people is still very limited.
Just like the sky in Heru, they really don't do a good job of applying warm tones to attract attention. Although Belica was already the brightest woman in the city, her crystal palace was also mainly blue-gray, and although the lights were bright, it looked a little pale.
The use of color is different from clothing styles, one era ahead is avant-garde, two times ahead is alternative, but any color matching that can make people pleasing to the eye is a classic in any era. Just like the modern Chinese people on the earth, they are also shocked by the ingenious coloring skills of their ancestors from time to time, and they feel that "your uncle will always be your uncle".
Grace was dressed the same way tonight.
She wore a long rose-colored dress woven from delicate crepe with a hem that dragged to the floor and edged with cashmere ruffles. The set of red agate jewelry made her skin fairer and fairer, making her whole person look extremely impactful.
Like a blooming rose, delicate and exciting.
Bright appearance means danger, which is an eternal truth in nature, and it is also the feeling of Grace in people's eyes at the moment.
The man next to the lady has changed and changed these days, and she seems to have some kind of curse, and whoever stays next to her will have a bad time, meet a natural enemy who can restrain herself, and then retreat in disgrace. Despite this, her seductive appearance has always attracted bees who are not afraid of death.
Charlie had only been with him for a day at first, a little bit that night to be exact. The next day, a young man from Nishizawa Castle came in. He and Charlie are not only old acquaintances, but also enemies are very angry when they see each other, and it is only from their hidden dialogue that Grace learns that this is a meeting between an illegitimate son and an eldest son.
As in many stories, the bastard knows how to forbear, while the eldest son is flamboyant and indulgent, so the verbal exchange between the two does not rise to the level of actual combat, and finally ends with Charlie dropping a "good luck" and leaving with a weird smile.
As the eldest son of the victor, he thought that he could hold the beauty, but the reality was cruel, and he was driven away before he could even walk within three meters of Grace.
Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, Charlie may be like an inconspicuous little shrimp, but this eldest son is just a small fish at best. The reason why many people who are eyeing Grace let go of Charlie is just because they don't know his details, just like the donkey from afar came to Qiandi, which made the tiger very awe-struck at first, and watched because of ignorance. But the eldest son of the wild dog-like son drove away the donkey, and the lions and tigers, who had been taking a bystander attitude, suddenly became clear.
After all, on this ship, there are even dragons above lions and tigers, not to mention a wild dog.
So he was driven away in a more "civilized" way, not as chic as Charlie.
In fact, all this is arranged, Charlie is the introduction, and the eldest son is responsible for swallowing the bait and taking the bait, just like a nursery, further escalating the event from the choreographed "script" to reality.
From that moment on, Grace broke away from the category of "actor" and officially embarked on the road of courtesans, stepping on the backs of one man after another to climb up, but with the assistance of Mu Yan and Amacer, she was not even touched.
Of course, there are two people who help in this, but her own quick thinking and grasp of people's hearts are the core reasons, which is a compulsory course for a Turing aristocratic lady. Of course, Surya was an exception, and she certainly hadn't taken this kind of course.
Now standing a meter away from her with a smile was none other than the son of His Excellency Victor, the lord of Haimon City, Brou. There is no doubt that he is one of the characters at the top of the food chain, and unlike the previous minions, elite monsters, and bosses, this is a real boss. His father, Victor, was on a high platform above the crowd and chatting and laughing with Hablon.
……
But Bruux was not in a more pleasant mood than his expression was, and if he could swear, perhaps he would have cursed.
The two annoying guards were stuck in front of him like the waiters in Vadan who didn't receive tips, and with polite smiles, he didn't even have a chance to kiss Fangze. And Grace's attitude towards him was also very detached, which made him confused about what the other party meant. Mingming smiled so brightly, like a charming cat, waving his little paws and scratching his heart, but he didn't let himself touch it.
The son of the city lord has a very straight temperament, he never talks about flirts in Haimeng City, and he doesn't know routines, anyway, as long as he shows his identity, the woman who is targeted will either take the initiative to climb into bed or be carried to bed, and he is more like a hipster at this point.
It was the first time he had encountered a problem that he couldn't solve with his father's name.
……
"Miss Grace, my father is Victor, the lord of Haemon." He mentioned his father's name again, hoping that the other party would understand his hints.
"You said that for the fifth time, Mr. Breu." Grace smiled, "I don't think my memory is that bad." ”
"Do you know what that means?" Bruux showed signs of losing patience.
"Does that mean you'll be the future lord of the city?"
"Of course." Breu felt that things were going in a good direction. "I have a lot of stories about Haimon City, I wonder if I have the honor to share with you after dinner?"
Grace covered her mouth and chuckled: "But the ship has not yet arrived in Haimeng City, why did Your Excellency get on the ship?" ”
"That's because ......"
Bruw didn't say anything for a long time, and he remembered how he had been knocked unconscious and then carried on the boat, and suddenly lost interest, and made an excuse and left.
Seeing him walk happily towards the center of the banquet hall, Mu Yan gave instructions to Hedwig, who was hovering over the Nagfar, and the silly bird let out a gray gull-like chirp, as if coming from the distant sky.
Uno, who had been standing by the window, heard the bird's call, stood up knowingly, and walked towards the crowd.
