Chapter 161: Attending the Prom
The next night, Joe Airo and the others went to the place of the dance after making a little preparation according to the time of the invitation.
The ball was both a birthday party for the owner's daughter, Anna, and an engagement party for her and her fiancé, Prince Alan.
Because the owner of N Island is rich and rivals the country, but there is only this one daughter, who has always been loved as an eyeball, if it weren't for the fact that Alan likes Anna so much, he would never have married off his excellent daughter so early.
Anna's mother is very beautiful, she is a typical lady, Anna grew up in the ears and eyes, not only very beautiful, like an angel in a Western mural, but also kind and intellectual.
is still a student at the world's third-ranked university, it can be said that appearance and intelligence coexist, and it was also when she was studying that she met her fiancé, Alan, the little prince of country Y, and the two fell in love at first sight, and then made a vow that after graduating from graduate school, they decided to get engaged first.
Considering the mood of the island owner, their engagement banquet was set on N Island, and many guests were invited to witness this happy moment.
In the whole garden, the color of the lights is not bright, but the delicate palace lamps hidden in the grass are just right for the guests to see the road under their feet.
And if you look carefully, you can see that these lights actually converge into a capital LOVE, and in the middle of the letter O, there are also two names, Anna and Alan, which makes people feel very romantic.
Su Ziyun is wearing a white dress, and with that cute face, she feels like a much-loved little princess who is not worldly.
She looked at the decorations in this garden and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, today's dance party looks a bit tricky." I heard that the owner of the island personally designed and arranged the decoration, and it seems that the owner of the island is very fond of his daughter. ”
Qiao Airuo, who was led by Su Shaoxi and walked in the front, turned around, she also agreed with Su Ziyun's opinion, and said: "Yes, I feel that this island owner really loves his daughter, and this decoration feels very attentive." ”
Several of them were wearing masks on their faces at the moment, saying that they were preparing for tonight's masked ball. At this moment, although they couldn't see each other's facial features, this did not prevent them from having a heated discussion.
There were many young men and girls wearing masks walking by, and Fan Vera smiled and said, "It seems that it is good to have a good father." ”
Nangong Li tightened his grip and held her hand: "It's not bad that you have a good husband." ”
Fan Vera didn't react for a while, looking at the same charming eyes, the light next to him just hit Nangong Li's eyes, and his eyes with a smile were even more radiant.
She was a little stunned for a moment, immersed in his smile, but quickly reacted, and used a mocking laugh to hide her stunned just now: "You don't think I'm sad just now, do you?" ”
Nangong Li didn't speak.
"Don't worry, I'm not a child now, I'm used to not having a father for a long time, I just sighed, no
Envy, I'm long past the age when I need a father. Van Vera said with a smile.
Her smile looked bright, as if she really didn't care about her father's affairs at all.
"Vera, what are you doing?" Joe Airuo, who was in front, turned around and shouted softly to the two of them who were lagging behind.
"Here we are." Fan Vera replied.
Then she turned around and pulled Nangong Li's wrist, with the image of a complete big sister: "Let's go, I'm really fine, don't think about it." ”
Nangong Li watched her holding her hand and was led by her, but the complexity in the look in her eyes always lingered.
In the dressing room, today's heroine, Anna, is sitting in front of the mirror, and several makeup artists stand beside her, helping her perfect her makeup.
Fan Anran knocked on the door and came in with a bouquet of roses in his hand and gave it to Anna.
“ran.” Anna greeted her with a smile, the two of them were college classmates, and although they weren't particularly close, they were friends.
But Fan Anran went back to inherit the family company after graduation and did not continue to study in graduate school, so the two of them rarely contacted each other.
Fan Anran praised with a flattering tone: "Anna, you are really beautiful today." ”
The simple Anna naturally regarded this as a real compliment, and responded politely: "Thank you, a great beauty, for complimenting me like this, I am really embarrassed." ”
Anna is telling the truth, Fan Anran and she are both school flowers, and the two are different types, one is a beauty in the West and the other is a beauty in the East.
Anna has always liked the looks of oriental women, but she herself is a typical western woman's looks, so she often thinks that Fan Anran looks better than herself.
Fan Anran took her slender hand: "You are our big protagonist today, you are dressed up so well, when our fiancé sees it, he will lose his soul." ”
"Your mouth is so sweet now." Anna was amused by her, she naively thought that Fan Anran was really praising her.
Fan Anran had an extremely beautiful smile on her face, but the smile actually didn't reach the bottom of her eyes, she looked at Anna who was amused by her words, but her heart was completely different from what she had just said.
Isn't Anna's family background stronger than herself, if she throws away all the external conditions, she Anna also wants to compete with her for the position of school flower? Anyway, no matter what time it is, she Fan Anran is the best, and no one can compare with her.
There was harmony in the dressing room, but no one saw the dark tide surging below.
The expression on Fan Anran's face was impeccable: "By the way, Anna, how did you and your fiancé meet, I don't know this." ”
Speaking of her fiancé, Anna's face was instantly full of happiness and a little shy: "We met when we were in graduate school, and we actually had several opportunities to meet before, but we missed them for some reasons. Unexpectedly
When we were in graduate school, we met at a prom, and it was love at first sight. ”
Fan Anran looked at her happy smile, and a trace of disdain flashed in his heart, but the words he said were full of envy: "It's really enviable, it seems that Alan must be very good to you, otherwise how could our beautiful princess show such a happy smile?" ”
She continued: "I finally understand, no wonder you didn't fall in love when you were in college, it turns out that there are better people waiting for you." I heard that Alan is also in a relationship for the first time? ”
"Yes, there is no shortage of suitors around him, but there has been no one he has a crush on, and both of us are each other's first love." Anna replied with a smile.
Fan Anran's expression was almost starry-eyed, and she deliberately made a very yearning expression: "You men and women in the West dare to love and hate, and it is really fateful to be able to meet your first love and then enter the marriage hall." ”
The smile on Anna's face was only happiness, and she said, "Yes, I was very surprised by the speed at which my friends changed boyfriends and girlfriends, and I didn't expect that I would be so lucky to meet a man who loves me so much." ”
"Well, I wish you all happiness." Fan Anran took her hand and said with a smile.
"Thank you." Anna's smile was genuine.
Fan Anran's heart seemed to be quenched with poison, she looked at Anna's smiling face, and said in her heart, Anna, just laugh, tonight, I will definitely let you have an engagement banquet that you will never forget.
Who made you look like a sacrosanct kaolin flower back then, making me look a lot cheaper than you?
This time your engagement party, I'm going to make good use of it, borrowing your dear fiancé, and I'm just taking revenge on the two women I least like the most.
The expression on her face was not flawed at all, and she even gently helped Anna fix her unfinished hair, so that the maid next to her felt that the relationship between the two was very good.
Finally, the bell struck eight o'clock, the light of the whole garden was adjusted to the most romantic color, and everyone took their seats in the elaborate meeting room arranged by the servants.
Tuo Su Shaoxi's status, several of them were arranged in the best position, facing the gorgeous stage.
The audience fell silent, and the long spotlight pointed to the far corner of the stage, where the steps looked mysterious and exciting under the illumination.
Two figures appeared in the light, the owner and the owner's wife walked slowly onto the stage hand in hand, the owner's wife's hand was in the crook of the owner's arm, the owner carefully supported his wife, as if treating the most precious treasure, both of their hair was already a little gray, this scene, so that all the people in the audience saw it, and they all felt very moved.
Qiao Airuo unconsciously tightened the hand of the person next to her, and Su Shaoxi pinched her palm and responded to her.
The two people on the stage finally stood still, and the owner took the microphone from the master of ceremonies and cleared his throat: "Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, thank you very much for coming, today is the engagement banquet of my daughter Anna and my future son-in-law Alan,
It was also my daughter's 25th birthday. ”
He paused, glanced at the lady of the island owner beside him, and then continued: "My wife and I only had such a daughter when we were very old, she has always been a little girl in our hearts, but time flies too fast, now, she is 25 years old, and I am very happy to have found a man who wants to be with her for the rest of her life. ”
Anna in the audience looked at her father in the dark, her eyes were a little moist unconsciously, the man next to her patted her hand gently, Anna looked at him and then responded to her with a smile.
The owner continued: "Today, my daughter is going to be booked by another man, and I am actually reluctant in my heart, I just think, why should this stinky boy marry such a beautiful and excellent daughter as me? ”
The audience erupted in laughter.
The owner waited for the laughter to cease before he said, "However, I respect my daughter's choice, and I wish them happiness." ”
