Chapter 73: The Wheel of Fate Is Sinking Again35
With a slight pause in his elegant voice, Carl stared at the extra piece of raspberry sandwich on his plate, and the cold breath in his body suddenly disappeared.
“…… Personally, I prefer that her paintings have a higher artistic value than Aophee's. ”
Xin was finally relieved, not hearing the more merciless scolding continue to flow from his thin lips.
Unable to wait for another difficulty, Ruth and Jack both let go of their high hearts. But the nobles present were a little puzzled, before they could recover from the tense confrontation just now, why did Mr. Hockley suddenly let this kid go?
The dinner continued, and everyone gradually led the topic to the Titanic's design voyage, and the compliments and praises harmonized the atmosphere of the whole table.
"Why did you give me this?" Carl slowly cut off a sandwich and put it in his mouth.
Sweet raspberry jam mixed with fluffy bread fills every corner of the lips and teeth.
“…… Because...... I don't like snacks that are too sweet. Xin also tilted his head and smiled flatteringly at him, "Then what do you think...... How does it taste? ”
She moved her little dessert to him in order to ease the conflict between him and Jack, but she didn't expect that the move in a hurry would be really useful.
Xin Ye's heart suddenly bubbled sweetly.
"Not good," Carl smiled as he put down his knife and fork, picked up a towel and wiped his mouth reservedly, "It's okay, but it's not far from the Hockley family's private cooking skills...... It needs to be improved. ”
Xin also looked at the clean plate he ate: "......"
Oh, and that's what needs to be improved.
001: "Drop - Quest Progress: +20%, Current Progress: 25%." ”
Shinya: ...... Oh, duplicitous man.
"Ofie."
"Huh?"
"I don't like snacks that are too sweet, either." Karl's gray-green eyes softened, reflecting the warm glass beads, and the gentle affection of the stars floated.
She looked at him a little hesitantly, "...... What do you mean? ”
Carl brought a plate of delicately creamed decorated crème brûlée to her eyes, "Help me out." ”
Shinya: "......"
She could only selectively ignore who had asked the waiter to change the dessert, and who had quickly solved the raspberry sandwich she had handed over.
“…… Okay," Xin also took a symbolic bite, and it turned out that this crème brûlée was so delicious.
She paused for two seconds, then quietly moved the plate to her side.
"How's it taste?" Carl looked at the girl with shiny eyes as she ate the pudding, her cold eyebrows stretched out, and she smiled slightly.
“…… It's not good, but the standard is acceptable...... But there is still room for improvement in Fabrizio's mother's skills......"
Xin also pretended to comment for a while, and finally he couldn't help but laugh, his sweet smile was sincere and bright.
Carl looked at such a girl and turned his head slightly, hiding the upturned corners of his mouth.
He likes very sweet snacks.
He knew she liked it too.
Tonight's sandwiches and puddings are indeed sweet.
……
After the thrilling first-class dinner, the gentlemen and aristocrats were about to enter the routine brandy drinking time.
Jack took advantage of the moment of separation to quietly slice Ruth's small note on a date, and the ladies were ready to return to their respective living rooms, except for a beautiful blonde girl who sat in place with a slight frown between her eyebrows, as if she had encountered some problem.
