"Wow-" This was Avis's slightly flirtatious whistle when he saw her.

"Cough! Ahem! Ahem, ahem, ahem! This is Frank, who is fighting with dessert, and after unintentionally looking up, he chokes his throat and coughs red.

"What's wrong? Isn't it pretty? She hesitated.

"No, it's pretty." Noah smiled, his gaze silently swept over the girl's fair, smooth and sexy bare back, his eyes sank, and he stepped forward and took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, blocking the view from the rest of the hall.

Met the girl's puzzled gaze.

He smiled again, "Be careful of getting sick." ”

"Poof." Ives couldn't hold back a smile and said, "If this woman jumps up and down on the sea every day, and says Frank is sick, I will still believe it, Ann?" Probably not. ”

"Neither will I!" Regarding the slander of being blown by the wind, Frank Little Fat Man Nanhai was strong and protested very seriously and strongly.

"Oh, don't deny it, Frank." Ives patted him on the shoulder casually and soothingly, "Someday, you're going to have a bad stomach." ”

Is this possible?

The little fat man, who was secretly thinking about the possibility of this, fell into deep thought and didn't speak anymore, but Ives lost interest in flirting with the lady in the back seat, instead—

"Ann." He called sweetly.

"I think if we forget the past and reacquaint ourselves with each other now, maybe there will be a happy and different beginning?"

"What do you think?" He smiled charmingly.

"Really? But I don't think so. She coldly refused.

She couldn't help but look at him with disdain.

Is this guy hooking up when he sees a girl? Forget the past and re-acquaint yourself - she has known each other for more than three years and is still re-acquainted, is she stupid?

"Oh, that's a pity." He ended the conversation rather regretfully.

After the meal, the dance begins.

It is said that this is the best time to discuss things at a banquet.

However, An Ningning was not sensitive to this at all, and just looked nervously at her feet.

"Yikes." Exclaimed again, she felt a little guilty, "I'm sorry, Noah, I stepped on your foot again." ”

"It's fine." Noah said good-naturedly.

"Annie, relax, relax."

And she just looked at the leather shoes that were already a little no longer shiny.

As her footsteps lifted and lowered, she became more and more nervous—

"Annie, look at me." As he spoke, he tightened Ben's hand that was gently on her waist and wrapped his arms around her completely. For a moment, the burning sensation that could not be ignored from her bare back made her look up at him in some panic.

He chuckled lowly.

And she spent the first song in a hazy way in the other party's nice and gentle voice.

"Hey, Noah, swap?" Avis jumped over with another girl, and asked as the dance party was exchanging partners.

Noah hesitated slightly, looked at the girl over there curiously, nodded politely, and exchanged dance partners.

"Wow." To An Ningning inexplicably unfolding a sweet smile at him, Avis blinked, "Honey, you are so beautiful—oh! ”

"I'm sorry, Avis." Her smile remained unchanged as she apologized, but there was no hint of guilt in her tone for stepping on his foot.

"Well, it's fine. Beautiful ladies are always privileged, aren't they? ”

He blinked again.

An Ningning, who was barely familiar with it, stumbled again after a few dance steps, but fortunately Avis helped her.

But.

"Oh, Ann." His hand rested on her smooth back, feeling the delicate skin under his palm, he couldn't hold back, and sighed sweetly again.

"Why don't you think about my previous proposal again?"

"Maybe we're going to have a good start?"

"No, Avis, I don't think there will be any at all!" She said with a blank face.

Seeing that the Taolu Emperor on the opposite side continued to make the "standard action 3 after being rejected - a look of regret", she glanced at Noah around her who didn't seem to notice here, took a step forward with bad eyes, and stepped on it fiercely with that high heel.

"Oh!"

Avis's face almost wrinkled, and he protested bitterly, "Woman, you can't marry like this!" ”

"Why should I get married?" She smiled sweetly, "I'm going to be your captain forever." ”

After saying that, she went straight to the terrace to breathe.

Only Ives was left covering his feet in pain.

"If An really doesn't get married, I probably won't be able to live." He glanced at Noah, who was looking at him as if he was looking at him, his face full of distress.

The night breeze is blowing.

An Ning Ning touched her arm with goosebumps, thought about it, and was about to turn around and go back.

A deep voice rang out in the back.

"Miss Ann."

The other party was a man in his thirties, wearing a military uniform that she couldn't tell which country, stiff and straight, but his face was unexpectedly gentlemanly and modest.

She has seen a lot of people in the past three years, and she can easily judge that the other party is a superior person.

It's just that the other party cleverly covered up this high-ranking arrogance and majesty.

"I am, may I ask you something?"

He smiled, making him even more approachable, "I'm Bertram." ”

"Bertram?" She couldn't help but be slightly surprised, "Is it Bertram from the Western Continent?" ”

"Exactly down there."

She couldn't help but be a little cautious. Bertram of the Western Continent, a soldier who also has power in the South Sea.

Yes, military men.

After the sudden death of Lambert I, the Hermann Empire was plunged into civil strife, and although the whole country was in disarray, at the same time, there were many capable generals and new factions, and Bertram was one of them.

Bertram is famous not only for his bravery in the landlocked country, but also for his participation in the pursuit of sea supremacy as a force on the sea.

She didn't know the situation on the Western Continent for the time being, but it could be seen from the fact that he had gradually immersed his forces in the South China Sea.

"Miss An doesn't have to be so nervous." He said, gesturing helplessly with his well-wrapped leather gloved hand, "I just happened to see you say hello here." ”

"Those people were always so nervous when they saw me, and I thought young girls wouldn't be like that." He teased with a wry smile.

"Maybe it's because of your outstanding ability, which always makes us respectful." She said thoughtfully.

"Haha, the little girl can really talk." He laughed, and fine lines appeared at the corners of his eyes.

"Actually, I have something to discuss with you." He said.
