In the atrium, the banquet is in full swing.

Kenneth also changed into his formal suit after taking a shower, while Mick was still wearing the banquet attire of Derrickley's traditional aristocracy, and his silver-white outfit made Mick look much more cold and noble. However, the two of them stood together, in addition to their poor appearance, they did not feel dwarfed in momentum.

When the two walked into the atrium, there was already a singing voice on the edge of the artificial lake, and the singer was naturally a choir led by the Minister of Culture and Arts, Vanessa, and the singing was sweet and seductive, like the charming water demon perched on the lake, which was seductive. Other students and professors danced by the lake, and a sharp-eyed Kenneth saw Professor Sophia dancing with another senior.

However, compared to dancing with girls, the food in the outermost corridor is more attractive to Kenneth, after all, Kenneth has a lot of physical exertion at the end of this day, today's game started in the afternoon, and now it is almost blackjack, Kenneth is already so hungry that his chest is close to his back, and when he smells the food, he leaves Mick behind, and runs towards the food with a huff, and at a glance he sees Marcus who is already looking down and sweeping the food.

And Mick saw that Kenneth had already started to sweep the food, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, this guy, just now, was clamoring to accompany him to see Jasmine, and now he throws himself aside when he sees the food, is he still a child?

Mick is not an indecisive person, and he is more serious about emotional matters, but he walked around the man-made lake, and did not see Jasmine, but found Mona and Auston dancing with the crowd.

Mick, who has always been a gentleman, waited until the end of the song to stop Mona and asked, "Mona, do you know Jasmine is there?" ”

And Mona glared at Mick without saying anything, and then let out a cold snort and turned his head away, leaving Mick and Auston confused, Auston saw Mick's anxious face, so he opened his mouth to help: "Mona, what happened?" ”

Mona turned around, the skirt of the light black evening dress on her body drew a graceful arc, her face was undisguised with anger, and the high heels on her feet made a crisp sound with Mona's steps, only to see Mona walk up to Mick and point Mick's chest and say, "I want to ask you, what did you do to Jasmine?!" ”

Mona's evening dress was a low-cut design, and Mick only had to look down to see Mona's full curves, so he had to raise his head and say embarrassedly: "I didn't do anything......"

"Didn't do anything, so why didn't Jasmine hide in the room and not come out?!" Mona's eyes were on fire, and there was anger in her clear eyes.

As the eldest sister in the Phil Building, Mona is always stronger than the boys in terms of momentum, and when Mona said this, Mick's heart suddenly crushed, but it was also a little inexplicable, did he say anything that hurt Jasmine?

"Whatever you do, take your responsibility as a man! Don't make my sister sad! Mona left this sentence and left the lake, but with her back to Mick and Auston, the corners of her mouth raised a playful smile, and she snickered in her heart: "Jasmine, I have to thank my sister and me in the future."

Confused by the words of the two, Auston tentatively asked Mick, "...... is the responsibility of men?" Mick, are you ...... with Jasmine? ”

Mick laughed and said, "How is that possible?!" Forget it, I can't tell for a while, I'll go see Jasmine first. After saying that, he left the atrium and walked back to the hotel.

Auston touched his chin and guessed, but couldn't figure out why, so he shrugged his shoulders and went to Mona to ask what had happened.

————————

According to Mick's memory, Jasmine was supposed to be sharing a room with Mona and Lisa, the room was on the thirteenth floor, and the room number was "1314", so Mick stood in front of the door, took a light breath, and knocked on the door.

But Mick waited for a while, but no one responded.

Mick was stunned for a moment, then knocked on the door after confirming the room number again, and after a long time, a confused and soft voice sounded: "Mona...... Is that you......"

It turned out that Jasmine was sleeping.

Mick breathed a sigh of relief, so he cleared his throat and said softly, "Jasmine, it's me, Mick." ”

“…… Mi, Mi, Mick! After a long silence behind the door, a sudden exclamation broke out, startling Mick, and asked, "Jasmine, are you alright?" ”

"No, it's okay! Mie, Mick, you come, come here, do, what do you do? The originally glutinous and sweet voice was a little shrill because of nervousness.

Mick heard Jasmine's tone of voice the same as when they first met, so he said softly, "Jasmine, don't be nervous, I'm here to talk to you about what happened just now." ”

"That incident...... Just, just that, that?! Jasmine behind the door let out an exclamation again, and hurriedly said, "What I just said just now was my nonsense!" Don't count! Woo......"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she was in a hurry, Jasmine spoke fluently, but at the end, she shyly let out a whimpering sound like a little milk cat, and at that moment Mick's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

Through the door, Mick's throat moved slightly, and he finally sighed and said, "Jasmine, I want to tell you my answer." ”

Jasmine behind the door sat on the ground with her legs crossed, wearing only a thin silk underwear, as if she had just taken a shower, her beautiful legs like mutton fat and white jade were exposed to the air, revealing a white halo under the light overhead, fortunately there was a soft wool carpet underneath, and the air in the room was adjusted to the right temperature, so you don't have to worry about catching a cold.

After Jasmine heard Mick's words outside the door, her heart couldn't help but beat faster, both nervous and worried, but looking forward to Mick's answer, her voice trembled slightly: "You, you say." ”

However, the first words that Mick said made Jasmine's heart sink to the bottom: "I'm sorry, Jasmine, I can't associate with you. ”

In just one sentence, Jasmine's rosy lips suddenly revealed a hint of paleness, and it turned out that Bei Yan unconsciously bit her lower lip.

But Mick's words continued outside the door: "It's not because I don't like you, but I'm not allowed to do it now." I had to study hard to catch up with one person and help that person achieve his mission. With my current strength, I don't even have the qualifications to stand beside him, so I can only study harder and harder. So right now, I don't really have time to focus on anything other than studying. ”

"Thank you for liking me, but I'm sorry I can't respond to your feelings, please understand."

After saying these words, Mick calmed down the slight emotions in his heart, looked at the door that was still closed and silent, and left silently.

And Jasmine behind the door bit her lip, and after confirming that Mick was gone, she finally let go of her teeth, and tears were already pouring down her face, not for herself, but for Mick.

She likes such a gentle Mick, who has always worked hard for others, but unconsciously made herself alone.

What Mick didn't know was that Jasmine hadn't slept every day when he came home late, just to be able to see him before bed, and her heart was full of joy for her daughter's family.

When did you fall in love with Mick? Perhaps it was because I was captured by his tenderness when we first met, and later became more interested in him from Mona's words, and finally fell in love with him after learning about Mick's heart at this moment.

Since I can only hinder you now, how can I, who likes you like this, bear to hinder you?

Jasmine lowered her head, crying silently for this first lovelorn.

10 p.m., Brightman Royal Hotel Rooftop Restaurant.

Against the strong wind on the rooftop, Claire, dressed in a thin trench coat, sat opposite Vincent, who was in the image of a standard nobleman, and Claire did not tell Maddy about the trip, but only said that he was meeting a friend, and did not want Maddie to know too much.

Vincent watched the trench coat on Claire's body being blown by the strong wind, and raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you cold?" ”

Although it is not the cold season, the temperature at night is only a dozen degrees, and Claire's clothes are really a little thin.

However, Krar didn't come here to chat with Vincent, and said straightforwardly, "Tell me, where is Ivor now?" ”

Vincent straightened his collar and snapped his fingers, and the waiter who stood by immediately poured the two of them the best red wine from the Andvar region, the color of which was maroon.

"Are you hungry now?" Vincent, however, said to him.

Claire's eyes were cold, and he said in a cold tone: "What do you say? ”

"Oh, I forgot," Vincent said, slapping his forehead and nodding to the waiter, "two Schergan steaks, thickened, medium-rare, go ahead." ”

The waiter nodded and left, and Claire's cheeks bulged slightly, and even Iverson couldn't keep his usual calm when it came to him.

Vincent swept the expression on Claire's face without a trace, keenly captured Claire's emotions at this time, and said leisurely: "Hey, it was us who lost the game today, what are you doing with this unhappy face?" ”

Claire stared at Vincent's handsome smiling face, took a breath and said, "Say, what do you want?" ”

Vincent's smile remained unchanged, his fingers crossed on the table, and he asked Krall, "What are your plans after graduation?" ”

Claire didn't hide it either, and said frankly, "I'm going to join the Rangers." ”

Wen Sen smiled when he heard this, and said with a disgusted expression: "Sure enough, those rumors are true...... You have a brain twitch and run to be a ranger? Just to find that person named Ai, Ai or something? ”

"That's right." Claire said with a blank face.

"The four levels of the empire are attacked by demons at the end or beginning of each year, especially the Bauhinia Pass. More than 30,000 people died in battle in ten years, an average of 3,000 deaths per year, at least 2,000 of them were rangers, and no one would go there except for the condemned and desperate people, are you crazy? Vincent snorted coldly.

"You don't have to worry about it, tell me your purpose."

Vincent let out a breath, the cynical look on his face dissipated, and said in a deep voice, "I'll go to Bauhinia Pass with you." ”
