Chapter 13 Plausible and Illusory
Arthur may have been the lowest knighthood among the nobles who qualified for the ball, but he was the most popular in the last two years.
The legendary experience of assassinating the son of the lion king and being crowned the third level has long been spread in the aristocratic circles, not to mention that Arthur has just turned twenty years old, and the future of such a young viscount is limitless.
As soon as the Grand Duke of Ross introduced Arthur, many girls in the audience immediately cast hot eyes, and some of them were even quietly moving to this side, and a young nobleman like Arthur was the best standard for choosing a mate.
After introducing the guests who were present tonight, the Grand Duke made a toast to celebrate the New Year, and the ball officially began.
The opening dance is the famous sword dance of the Ross family, dozens of girls holding double swords danced, showing the soft dance posture and at the same time adding a little bit of killing on the battlefield, which has a unique charm.
While everyone was focusing on the sword-dancing girl in the field, Nini came out of nowhere and came to Arthur and Joan's side.
Before Arthur could say hello, Nini's first words were: "Golie asked me to tell you that you must dance with her for the first dance in a while, and if you dare to promise others, you will weigh the consequences yourself!"
Before Arthur, confused, could figure out what was going on, Nini turned around and slipped away.
The sound of the rapid Jin Ge Iron Horse stopped, the sword dance on the field stopped, and the girls dancing the sword retreated one after another.
The music in the hall became soothing and melodious, and the dance party officially began at this moment.
"Viscount Arthur, can you ask me for a dance?"
"Viscount Jiayong, let's dance together?"
"Dear Arthur, come and dance with me!"
As the music played, the three girls scrambled to invite Arthur. Arthur didn't even notice how the girls had suddenly appeared next to him.
Facing the three slender jade hands stretched out in front of him, Arthur, who had never had experience with girls, was embarrassed and didn't know how to deal with it, even if there were three fierce orcs opposite, Arthur would not be so overwhelmed.
With the sound of soft footsteps, Golly walked over with a mysterious smile. Arthur felt that there must be a murderous aura hidden behind that smile, and if he dared to hold any hand in front of him, he might not see the sun the next day.
"I'm sorry, I asked Golly out. Arthur finally opened his mouth.
The girls looked at Golly as they walked over, and their faces were full of frustration.
Golly stretched out her hand to Arthur, who had to hold it hard. Golly pushed back hard, and Arthur stumbled forward, almost crashing headfirst into Golly's arms.
"Laugh a little, let you dance with this girl, and still wronged you?"
"I can't dance. ”
"You can't dance, oh my God!" Golly's head suddenly covered with black lines.
Golly had never thought about this before, dancing like eating and drinking was a necessary social skill for nobles, and even she was forced to learn by her mother. She ignored Arthur's dirt bun, even if he was canonized as a nobleman by the king, no one had ever taught him the necessary social etiquette of these nobles.
"It's okay, I'll teach you. The movement was very simple, much easier than practicing martial arts, and the other hand was around my waist. ”
Arthur's hand stopped in mid-air, and he didn't dare to put it on Golly's waist. For Arthur, it took more courage to put his hand on the girl's body than to slash it with a sword.
"Please, please hurry, they're all watching. Golly urged Arthur in a very low voice.
Arthur finally mustered up the courage to put his hand on Golly's body, but the force was too much to match the beat, and the position of the hand was slightly lower in the panic.
Golie couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation, "It's the waist, not the ass!" Golly said this with her own face flushed.
Arthur moved his hand up to put it in the right position, because the waist of Gori, who has been practicing martial arts for many years, is very soft, Arthur felt that the feeling coming from his hand was very good, and almost subconsciously pinched it with his hand.
Golly Spitfire's gaze stared at Arthur, if it weren't for this occasion, Golly would have exploded a long time ago!
"If you don't want to die, just follow my command, move with my feet first, and take a step forward...... You've stepped on my feet!"
Arthur moved awkwardly under Goli's leadership.
The eyes of many people in the hall swept over Golly and Arthur, intentionally or unintentionally, and most of the topics of whispered chatting could not avoid this topic.
The jewel of Grand Duke Ross's family is already an adult, and there is no marriage contract. The New Year's ball held by the Archduke of Rus, who has always been low-key, is probably for his beloved daughter, and Goli's first dance danced with Viscount Jiayong, which the Grand Duke specially emphasized, and the meaning is naturally self-evident.
There were a few marquis who were familiar with the Grand Duke of Ross and directly raised their glasses to congratulate, "The Grand Duke is really a good vision, not only are the six sons and one daughter all dragons and phoenixes, but this future son-in-law is also the future general of the kingdom!"
"Don't be kidding, the little girl and Viscount Arthur are just good friends, and they haven't talked about marriage yet. Grand Duke Ross denied with a smile.
Although the Grand Duke denied it, the expression on his face revealed his attitude towards this matter.
Arthur himself didn't know that he had become a sweet and sweet spot in the eyes of the major wealthy families, and the young viscount who was born in the Blood Yao Academy and was the most popular in the limelight, and had no other wealthy background, naturally became the best object for the nobles of the major wealthy families to recruit.
After a dance, Arthur was already sweating profusely. Where is it easier to dance than to practice martial arts? It is even more torturous than "Danyang refining gods."
Golie didn't know how many feet she had been stepped on, and she even suspected that Arthur was deliberately stepping on her to retaliate, but it didn't look like he was clumsy.
Arthur wiped the sweat from his head, "Is it over, Miss Golly?"
Golly wanted to let Arthur go, but suddenly saw the eyes that swept around her, especially her mother, who was also watching her, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Do you want to dance with me as a task?"
So as the music played, Arthur was dragged by Golly and began to writhe in pain again.
"Do me a favor, and after a while you can toast my father with a glass of wine, and listen to whatever he says. Golly whispered as she pressed her head against Arthur's neck.
This action is extremely intimate in the eyes of outsiders.
Arthur had already been suspicious of the dance arrangement and the gaze around him, as well as Ney's excessive enthusiasm before, and now Goli said that Arthur suddenly understood something.
"You must have some purpose in doing this, right?"
"No way, father and mother are pressing too hard, if I don't find someone to come out myself, they will introduce me to the son of the Marquis of Darryl. ”
Arthur showed a helpless wry smile, "So you pulled me out to act? ”
"If you don't think it's fake in your heart, it's not fake. Golly pressed her face lightly against Arthur's.
A trace of electricity flowed through his body, and Arthur froze completely......
