Chapter 168: Dancing Together
Parker returned to the hall, the middle of the long tables on either side had been vacated, and the place was now a dance floor. He went straight to the dance floor, where the banquet dance was essential, and everyone was waiting for the lord. The maid immediately switched tunes, and in the melodious sound of the piano Parker walked towards Edith, and it was clear that this girl from the side of the Ferry family had been chosen by the lord to be the maid of the feast, and to dance the first dance with him.
On such occasions, the Lord's Lady would accompany Parker to the scene, but this time there was an accident, and the Lady of Sani Lord became seriously ill. Originally, Parker thought that it was just a simple small cold, and people with such weather were most likely to change to such a minor illness, especially for older people. Parker didn't pay much attention to it, it seemed to get worse quickly, and within a few days, Sani couldn't get out of bed, and Parker was looking for a doctor in the entire territory, and Sani couldn't accompany the lord at tonight's party.
Can't believe that she would be Lord Parker's female companion, and when Parker walked up to her and held out his right hand to her, she didn't put her hand on it first. The first minor suspense between the nobles before this party was resolved at this time, when Lord Parker chose a young girl from the family to be the female companion of the ball. To the music, the two danced in the hall and finally left the venue to the applause of everyone.
She was very excited, a little nervous, and there were some minor mistakes in the middle, but the whole dance went well. Parker greeted Edith back to her original position and walked up the stairs into a study where his most distinguished guest awaited. The departure of the lord officially ignited the whole banquet, and the sense of restraint disappeared, and people left their places and began to look for dance partners.
Edith blushed a little, a dance that made her face flush a lot, and she sat in her seat waiting for someone to invite. Because of Parker's actions, Edith entered the eyes of more people, and some nobles with higher status invited Edith at the request of their parents. Everyone she refused on the basis of physical exertion, she has been secretly looking in one direction, and there is a dreamy sweet shot in her heart, and now is the age of dreaming.
Just as Edith decided to take the initiative, Willow Shadow left her position for the first time, causing Edith's slightly raised thighs and hips to press back against the chair. The young man in the position next to her had changed two or three waves, and in addition to responding to the young man's accosting without saying a word, her eyes had been staring at Liu Ying's movements, as if every step of the blue-haired young man was walking in her heart, making the heart that was originally beating up and down beat even more violently.
Liu Ying has always been the most high-profile person at this banquet, and people will gather around him every time. Although everyone wanted to communicate with this young, noble and powerful person, not everyone had such an opportunity, and only the few people with the highest status had such confidence to surround Liu Ying. The others had to settle for the second, there were even more people around Ralph than around Willow Shadow, unlike Willow Shadow, who was a little impatient, Ralph enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded like this, many of them were big people he usually needed to nod his head and waist, but now he called him a brother.
Liu Ying raised his apologies to the people around him, and the surrounding nobles quickly gave way to him, their eyes moving with Liu Ying's movements, and everyone wondered who was so honored to be the female companion invited by the members of the imperial family to dance together. There is no doubt that once Liu Ying chooses which girl, it will not be tomorrow, and this girl will be sent to Liu Ying's room tonight. The girls are looking forward to this handsome young aristocrat, at this time they have always been disgusted by the arrangement of their families, and if the object is this man, they are also willing to be used as a political victim.
Liu Ying's footsteps didn't stop, he already had a plan when he left his seat, and he walked all the way to the man's side. Liu Ying's choice made everyone wonder that this teenager would actually invite this person to be his female companion!
"Teacher Mia, I wonder if Liu Ying will have a chance to dance with you. ”
Liu Ying's choice is not a noble girl with her own style, but Mia, who saved her life and suddenly attacked her at the beginning of the dinner. Mia kept her head down, she was the same as she used to be at banquets, she was indifferent to everything that was going on here, and she was tired of this kind of gathering between nobles in Lancas. She raised her head when she saw a pair of legs appear in front of her, and once again looked at Liu Ying's face up close. Mia just blinked, and immediately put her hand on Willow Shadow's hand and stood up from her position.
At the beginning of the banquet, the confrontation between the two made these nobles of Roma City think that there was some conflict between Liu Ying and Mia, or some conflict between the two families. is also from Lancas, and it will not necessarily be an old friend, the bigger the family, the deeper the family grievances on the body. Everyone already thought that the two were enemies, but no one expected that Liu Ying would invite Mia to dance, as if nothing had happened just now. On the contrary, it shows that the relationship between these two people is close, as if they are friends in the world.
Liu Ying's dancing was taught by Asa, and here Liu Ying learned that men can also dance. In the Shenyuan Continent, there has never been a man who can dance, it is a group of beautiful women showing their graceful dancing posture on the stage. When he knew that one of the most important events of the aristocratic gathering was to dance in front of the crowd with men and women hugging each other, Willow Shadow's head was covered with black lines. Sure enough, there is a huge difference in folk customs, and there is a need to keep a distance between men and women in the Shenyuan human race, and there would never be such behavior.
What Liu Ying is most afraid of is that he can't learn this kind of exotic dance, he didn't expect that the movements required in it are very simple, there are not too many complicated movements, if it is as complicated as those famous dances on the Shenyuan Continent, Liu Ying doesn't dare to guarantee that he can learn it in a short time. Two big men hugging each other in a small room to practice like this, as weird as they want.
The hard work pays off, and after a period of practice, Liu Ying can now dance on the dance floor very skillfully, making people think that he is a high-class nobleman who often attends parties. Liu Ying's movements didn't make anyone catch anything, and the two returned to their places after a dance. Originally, Liu Ying thought that Mia would say something during the dance time, but he was wrong, and Mia kept silent, as if she was really here to dance.
Returning to his position, Willow Shadow was surrounded by the nobles again, and now that he had completed all the items that Asa said the nobles should accomplish at the meeting, it meant that he had been able to leave the venue politely. After declining the invitation of many people, Liu Ying explained to Ralph, and walked to the hall door after rejecting Ralph's desire to send him off. Edith, who was walking not far from Willow Shadow's position, stopped, she knew that it was too late, she couldn't dance with Willow Shadow this night, and she didn't even have a chance to be rejected by him at close range.
"You go back first, and I'll meet Lord Parker. ”
Willow Shadow walked in front of the door and was about to open the door and leave, the waiter on the side saw that Willow Shadow was leaving, and stepped forward to Willow Shadow and whispered, Willow Shadow knew that the main play had begun, and Lord Parker invited him to the study to chat. Willow Shadow opens the door and explains the situation to Asa, telling him that the plan is well underway.
"How did Asa know Lord Willow Shadow?!"
Edith was still standing in place, watching Willow Shadow leave, seeing the waiter who had told Willow Shadow something, and seeing Asa who seemed to have a bad relationship with Willow Shadow. Asa's situation Edith knows, just a civilian who is lucky enough to get the help of Teacher Mia to embark on the path of a magician, she is generally disdainful of such a person, but this Asa, whose status is far inferior to him, can communicate with Liu Ying alone, and Edith is a little unclear about the situation.
While she was still thinking about the relationship between the two, Willow Shadow walked in her direction, and she immediately gave up the question that would take a lot of time to think about it, and looked at Willow Shadow who was walking towards her step by step. Willow Shadow went back and forth to be noticed, and when she staggered past Lydith, Willow Shadow did not look at Waitis, who was beautiful in Romani City, and went up the stairs under the guidance of the waiter.
Seeing Liu Ying walking up to the second floor, there may be a big change in everyone's territory until Fee, and maybe the aristocratic forces will face a reshuffle. A noble traveler of high status came to Roma City, and if Lord Parker wanted to take this line, then he would definitely share a lot of benefits to help him complete the experience. After so many years, the benefits that Ferry can be distributed have already been divided among all of you here, and if a powerful person joins, the interests of a group of nobles will be damaged, but no one dares to raise objections, and everyone can only pray that the Fa God himself is not the part of the people who have been sacrificed.
The architecture of the Witt people has a special charm, with Willow Shadow walking down the corridor and the waiter stopping in front of a room, looking at Willow Shadow with smiling faces. Needless to say, this should be Lord Parker's study, and it is also the place where they met this time. Liu Ying stopped in front of the door for a moment, and the waiter pushed the door open for him. Every time, Liu Ying sighed at the aristocratic life of the Witt Terran, which was much more extravagant than that of the Shenyuan Terran.
There were several kerosene lamps in the room, which lit up the small room, and it was the first time he had seen such lamps, and he had seen many new things in Ferry Domain. He was still a little surprised that there were not magic lamps hanging in the hall in this room, as if this lord didn't need to be so frugal.
"Hello Lord, Willow Shadow. ”
Liu Ying naturally pulled out a chair and sat down, the door was brought by the waiter at this time, some noisy noises in the hall were isolated, and the whole room was very quiet.
"In the past ten years, it has been rumored that there is a prince in the Blue Star Empire who has a terrifying talent and has been blessed by the stars. Everyone said that the prince would lead the Blue Star Empire to glory and lead the Witt Terran to victory over the aliens. Originally, I thought this sentence was a bit exaggerated, but now that I see you, I believe the rumors of that prince a little. The Blue Star Empire really has a lot of talents, and a young child can have such a magical cultivation!"
