Chapter 143: Can You Dance?
The hard wood in the fireplace was burning, with the occasional monotonous "crackling" sound, and the reddish-yellow flames emitted a molten heat.
The winter sun shines through the large glass window, which can be called luxury, just sprinkled on the tea table in the small living room, a teapot, three teacups, a faint fragrance of tea wafting in the air, a standard aristocratic morning tea, bringing people a warm and comfortable.
"Charles, have we not seen each other for five days, or have we not seen each other for seven days?"
Although she has already eaten two cups of tea, Fani is still very entangled in this problem.
"Hmm! your figure makes me vaguely remember yesterday!"
Fani was stunned, and Olive next to her turned her head with a smile, her little shoulders shaking.
"Olive pour me a cup of tea, don't you see that my cup is empty?"
“”
Olive stretched out her little hand aggrievedly to pick up the teapot and refill Charles, she suddenly felt that since Sister Fani came, her status in the family had been directly affected, and she had been demoted from the number two of the Chevalier family to the level of a maid.
"Okay, but you can't lose any more weight, I mean you can't skip meals anymore, you're just right now!"
“”
The last time Fani brought the court tailor Illi to design a New Year's dress for Charles, she once asked Charles for tips on how to stay in shape (lose weight quickly), and Charles said 'don't eat, exercise more', but I didn't expect Fani to be wrong now.
"Actually, I've always eaten!"
Charles picked up a small snack and put it in his mouth, "My body is recovering, the previous fatness was due to the use of too many spiritual power potions over the years, and now the potency of the potion is slowly losing, and my body has returned to this, so Fani, you don't have to worry!"
"I'm not worried about you, I'm worried about the people who will be scared by you at this year's New Year's party, giggles!"
Fani, who has always maintained the image of a lady, seems to have thought of some interesting scene, so that Charles saw her laughing for the first time, and in an instant it bloomed like a spring flower, full of charm, beautiful and incomprehensible.
Towards the end of a leisurely morning tea, Roy walked in from outside.
"Sir, I have informed several jewellers, they are more than willing to serve the lord and the lady, are you sure to let them come to the door this afternoon?"
"Well, it's this afternoon!"
Charles looked at Olive who hadn't reacted yet and said, "The New Year is coming, I have asked a few jewelers to come over, and you and Sister Fani will each have to choose a few pieces of jewelry that can be used." ”
Before Olive could answer, Fani stopped her and said, "Charles, I still have a few pieces of jewelry there, you just need to pick a few for Olive Live."
"I don't need any jewelry, but I'll help Sister Fani choose the best jewelry for her, don't worry, Charles!"
"I don't really need to"
"Sister Fani, don't do this, those jewels of yours were sold for me and Charles, I don't know how many people are waiting to see our jokes at the banquet, I have to dress you and Charles in all their glory"
Fani couldn't resist the little girl, turned to Charles and said, "Charles, I know you got a sum of money in the territory this year, but now you need too much money to spend on these lifeless jewels"
"Ahem!"
Charles coughed lightly twice, and said lightly: "You don't have to worry about money, although I do have some debts, but a pharmacist will not lack money for these few pieces of jewelry!"
"Jingle Bell!"
A bulging money bag was tossed on the table, and the crisp and charming sound was enough to know that it was filled with a tempting gold louis.
“”
After a brief moment of silence, Olive leaped up to Charles, grabbing his arm and her eyes lit up.
"Charles, you're already a pharmacist, right? I knew you've always been a genius."
Charles leaned back in his chair with some pretending to be 13, and said majestically: "I did become a junior pharmacist, but if a junior pharmacist wants to prepare a spiritual power induction potion, it still takes a long time to sharpen, so you still have to wait for a while, during this time, the piano still has to be practiced, the dance has to be danced, and the basic training of warriors cannot be relaxed, understand?"
"Okay! Okay! I'm obedient!"
Olive nodded at every word Charles spoke, and finally added a request that Charles often made to her.
But soon Olive remembered something, "Charles, do you know how to dance?"
“”
"Do I need to be able to dance?"
Charles stared at Olive fiercely, don't you know if I can dance? Three hundred pounds of body, you let me dance ballet? Can you save some face for my brother?
"No, Charles, you're going to dance with Sister Fani at the New Year's party, why did I forget about it, it's all my fault."
Olive thumped her little head with her little fist in annoyance, with a look of chagrin.
The little girl's eyes suddenly lit up, "Charles, you are going to learn to dance now, you are a genius, you can learn it in a few days, right?"
"Don't be so nervous Olive Live, it's not a big deal if you can't dance, your sister Fani will understand me"
"Huh?
Charles had never danced with the opposite sex in his previous life, and it was a bit big at this time.
"Charles, I don't know how many people are lining up to dance with Sister Fani, if you can't dance, can you just watch from the sidelines?"
He slowly stood up, twisted his neck like a fighter preparing for the stage, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "Olive Live, find me a dress, a dance dress!"
Because of the morning tea, Olive was sent home very early today, and the lazy little girl, who had thought of stealing a day, could only act as a luthier, accompaniment for the temporary dance teacher Lord Fani and the lame student Count Charles.
"Olive look, you made the wrong note again"
Charles shook his body quickly to prevent his big foot from stepping on Fani's little foot again, and in order to hide his embarrassment, he threw the pot on his sister again.
"Charles, I'm not wrong at all, I wonder if you're a scar hunter, where did your powerful sense go? How did you step on Sister Fani's foot?"
“”
Charles was really ashamed that as a transcendent hunter with keen perception and quick skills, he had made such a serious mistake, which was really unreasonable.
"But my heart is beating so fast! This dance is so awkward, the dance music is not dynamic at all, I can't find the beat at all!" Charles lamented in his heart, lamenting that his heroic image was about to be ruined.
As soon as Charles and Fani joined hands just now, they knew that Ferren's atmosphere was still very open, and he adjusted the distance three times in a row to get used to this almost face-to-face spacing of dance steps.
There are too many rules for the cumbersome court dance, one kind of dance between father and daughter, another kind of dance between ordinary men and women, or the dance steps between lovers, all have a specific distance pattern, and the dance steps that Charles is learning now are the romantic dance steps exclusive to couples.
Because of the urgency of time, Charles only planned to learn this one, but he didn't expect to learn this one, because of the abnormal jump of youth hormones, which led to great difficulties.
The two were already very close, and when they took a step, their legs slid tightly next to each other, and Fani always seemed to dodge without a look, so Charles could only adjust with his super body control ability, and continued to maintain a very close distance from Fani.
"Fani, can you not hide?" Charles finally got annoyed and whispered in Fani's ear.
Fani's face and neck were already red, and the pink and pink were causing reverie, and at this moment she bowed her head angrily and said, "It's the first time I've danced like this, but what do I think you have the same virtue as those men who use tabby powder?"
"How can I have it?"
Charles's aggrieved face turned red, I just want to lean on you to get closer, what's wrong?
