Xia Lingge twisted his eyebrows: "What?" ”

"Oh, dear." Madame Fuss didn't seem to notice Xia Lingge's confusion and rejection, and continued with a happy and mysterious expression on her chin, "Believe me, the eyes will not deceive, before the girl in the blue dress appeared, His Royal Highness the Prince's eyes stayed on you more than once, but for some reason he didn't invite you to dance. ”

"Maybe it's just a prince whim." Xia Lingge held the silver fork and put a fresh orange slice in his mouth, "Or maybe he sees people as me at all, and there is Verena next to me, isn't it?" ”

Madame Furth glanced at Si Cheng, who was suddenly straight, and looked back again: "Okay, Lias, let's talk about you." ”

Xia Lingge: "......"

Xia Lingge glanced at Si Cheng silently.

Si Cheng also silently hugged his weak and helpless self.

"Lias?"

Mrs. Fuss raised her voice and called again.

Xia Lingge turned his head and smiled at her: "Yes, mother." ”

Madame Fuss continued: "Although I don't know why His Royal Highness didn't invite you to dance, as long as he has an interest in you, it won't be a problem, tomorrow's ball, I want you to take the initiative to talk to the prince, oh, don't be shy, my beautiful daughter, a lady's request will not be refused, not to mention that His Royal Highness the prince is a noble gentleman." ”

Xia Lingge looked a little hesitant.

'Bang——! ’

The silver lupine was suddenly photographed on the table.

"Are you trying to defy me? Lias! "Madame Fuss's expression suddenly became ghostly and gloomy" Becoming the crown princess is something that many girls dream of, this is the supreme glory, the glory of the family, making us a higher level of existence admired by all people! Lias! You must become a princess! ”

Her distorted face was like a ghost, the black pupils in her eyes spread to occupy all Bai Ren at some point, and her body was constantly becoming hideous and tall, like a pitch-black afterimage constantly wriggling and twisting.

"Lias! You have to be a princess! Become a princess! ——”

Hoarse and unpleasant.

Both Xia Lingge and Si Cheng were caught off guard by Madame Furth's sudden transformation, and they all got up and looked around, the maids still stood upright like soulless puppets, and none of them were terrified or afraid that Lady Furth had turned into a monster - not even the protagonist Cinderella.

Si Cheng's eyes turned to Xia Lingge, asking if he wanted to escape or make a move.

Xia Lingge shook his head and stopped him, not now, they still need the identities of Lias and Verena, and they can't do it.

As if she couldn't see Madame Fuss's mutation, she took a few steps closer to her elegant salute: "I'm sorry, mother, I just don't have that much confidence in myself, after all, the girl who fell from the sky is so beautiful like an angel, I'm just worried about ......"

The black shadow that kept shaking suddenly paused, and he turned his head down to get closer to Xia Lingge: "Really......"

The cold air that seemed to turn into substance hit her face, and Xia Lingge could feel the cruel gaze that was more yin than a poisonous snake, but he didn't retreat at all, "Yes, mother." She raised her eyes to meet him, "After all, she is the girl who can win the prince's favor when she first appears." ”

They were at a stalemate.

"Well, my favorite Lias."

Madame Fuss sat back on her throne, and her body changed back to her graceful and plump lady: "I believe in your words, and I believe in your determination. Don't worry too much about my darling, you're a thousand times more beautiful than the girl who doesn't dare to show your face, and believe me, if you say a few words to His Royal Highness at the next ball, I'm sure he'll be so enchanted with you that he will soon forget the wild girl from nowhere. ”

"Yes, Mother."

Xia Lingge was still respectful, but when she casually glanced at Cinderella, she found her crossed hands clasped tightly.

……

Back to the bedroom.

Si Cheng just wanted to say something to Xia Lingge, but Xia Lingge stretched out his index finger and put it to his lips to make a silent gesture.

He nodded, speechless.

Xia Lingge waited for a while, then pulled the doorknob and walked out.

The candle flame kept jumping in the darkness.

Xia Lingge touched the wall and came to the grave where she found Cinderella praying last time, she hid in the corner and squatted down in an imperceptible position, and really saw the petite blonde girl kneeling there, but this time she didn't pray, but hunched over and digging something with her bare hands, the dirty mud stained her fingertips and even the entire palm, but she still dug seriously, and quickly straightened up.

"Found ......"

She let out a small exclamation.

Xia Lingge took advantage of the moonlight to see that there were a few old styles of jewelry in the palm of Cinderella's hand, perhaps buried in the ground for too long, those strange jewelry had long lost their luster and beauty, Cinderella looked at it carefully for a while, and then sighed softly in frustration: "No, it will be found." ”

Her eyes were fixed on the willow branches not far away, her expression was aggrieved and a little complaining, but she couldn't say anything except sighing.

Putting the jewelry back in the mud pit, Cinderella then took out a small package and put it in and buried it again.

When she stood up and walked away, Xia Lingge came to the willow branch.

She squatted down and stretched out her hand to pull out the package a few times, and gently pulled the tied tie a few times, and the light blue gorgeous dress inside appeared in front of her, Xia Lingge looked at the dress she was holding in a complicated way, and replaced the original gray hairband with a more delicate and beautiful light blue headband.

I didn't expect the fairy godmother to be herself......

Xia Lingge wrapped the dress in its original shape and put it back.

I hope that the prince won't do anything, otherwise so much hard work will be in vain, and she can't tell what she will do.

Just, what about Cinderella?

She looked in the direction where Cinderella had left—that was not the direction she had gone back to rest, Xia Lingge smoothed out all the footprints and stepped on them, and walked over.

The estate is large, but not complicated.

It wasn't long before she heard a strange cooing.

Xia Lingge hid behind the stout tree and poked her head out, and the orange lamp hung on the curved eaves, which made the blonde girl exude a warm warmth, and her eyes looked at the white dove standing on the railing.

"Eat more, little cuties."

Cinderella took out a lot of food from the basket and put it on the plate of the white pigeon, and I don't know if it was an illusion that Xia Lingge always felt a smell of blood wafting in front of the tip of his nose.

"Don't worry, don't grab it, I still have a lot of them, all fresh."

Xia Lingge's eyes faded.

Cinderella put all the food on the plate, and looked at the white pigeons who were competing for food and even began to peck and bite each other: "It's good that you guys are getting more and more vigorous." ”
