c.e. December 31, 69, Apartments Coulain.

"Really. Why not wear a skirt?" Larks complained while helping Mary tidy up her collar.

"I'm not used to it. I've been like that since I was a child." Mary shrugged and ignored Lux's complaints.

"It's obviously such a tall figure." Lux was still a little unwilling to give up.

After Lux helped Mary tidy up her clothes, she took a little step back and looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction.

"It's not bad." Mary looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing an elite pilot's red uniform. Zaft did not manage the uniform strictly, so she could modify it herself. Mary's top did not move, while the trousers below were made into ultra-shorts, and then put on black stockings. Finally, there were unified standard white boots.

"That would be a skirt." Lux was a little regretful. She wanted to change it to a skirt at the beginning.

"Okay. That's all." Mary was a little speechless. She applied for pants at the beginning.

"So, let's go." Lux held Mary's arm.

The two then left their home by car and drove towards the banquet venue. As the annual New Year banquet, members of the plant's major families must attend. Lax and Mary, as members of the Kurain family, must also fall down. Originally, Lax wanted Mary to wear evening dresses with her, but firstly, Mary was a little taller and could not find a suitable evening dress for the time being. Secondly, Mary didn't like that style of clothes, so she wore out the military uniform that Lax had modified. Moreover, Zaft's military uniform was quite handsome and suitable for this occasion. As for Lax, she was wearing a light pink evening dress.

When Lux and Mary approached the banquet venue, they immediately attracted the attention of many people. There was jealousy, worship, and more envy.

"Old friend. I suddenly envy you for having two daughters." Bartley Gul shook the wine glass in his hand and said to Shigale.

"Hahaha. Just envy me." Shigar laughed. Then he raised his glass and clinked his glass with Bartley Gor.

"I said Aslan, why did I suddenly feel that Lax and Mary are a perfect match?" Diego poked Aslan with his arm and said.

"No," Nicole said in surprise.

"I really think so." Aslan smiled bitterly.

"Tsk! You two are not in a hurry?" Yitzhak mocked the two.

"Want? Why are you anxious?" Nicole looked at Yizhak in a little confused.

"Don't worry. Itzhak just can't stand your character of silent jiji." Diego relied on his height to put Nicole's house under his armpit.

"Lux." Aslan saw Lux and Mary looking around, so he reached out to signal.

After hearing Aslan's voice, Lux pulled Mary over. Seeing Mary coming, Diego let go of Nicole. He didn't want to ask Mary to clean up because he couldn't beat him.

"Hello Aslan, Nicole, Itzhak, Diego." After saying that, Lux bowed with his skirt.

"Why are you all alive? Alas." Mary turned her face to the side and said in a sigh.

"What does it mean to be alive?! What's going on with your disappointed expression!!!" Yizhak shouted, pointing at Mary as he jumped to his toes.

"Okay OK. Yizhak, every time Mary says that, you will take the bait." Diego hugged Yizhak to prevent him from getting nervous.

"That's it. Izhak, don't be so angry." Nicole also advised.

"She is your fiancée! Of course you are not angry." Yitzhak became even more excited when he heard Nicole's advice.

"Then I'll advise you, please." Aslan said helplessly.

"You are her brother-in-law!" Yizhak immediately retorted.

Aslan and Nicole looked at each other, both helpless.

"What should I persuade?" Diego said.

"You are the target," Mary said suddenly.

"Yeah." Yizhak also nodded in agreement.

"Uh..." Diego looked at Aslan and Nicole, meaning they asked them to help deny it, but the two were all wearing it to look at the ceiling.

"Miss Lux." Diego was helpless and had to ask for help from Mary's sister Lux.

"Mary. You shouldn't say that. It's been so long. Don't worry about it all the time. Although you played a water gun battle when you were eight years old, you used a water gun to cry. And after the other party surrendered, you hit Diego with a water gun and then 24 times. In the end, you even said it was a gun to make up. But you can't always be a reporter." Lux began to teach Mary a lesson, but no matter how others listened, they felt like they were hurting Diego.

"Puff... Yes, yes, yes, yes, I know sister." Mary agreed while covering and laughing. She didn't remember the process at that time, she only knew that she had won. Unexpectedly, her sister still remembered so clearly.

"Uh...Lux. were you helping me just now?" Diego asked speechlessly and depressedly.

"Yes. I'm teaching Mary a lesson." Lux looked at Diego with a sincere look.

An idea emerged in the minds of the four men. Could it be that Lux is sometimes more natural?

"Um...... cough cough." When Mary saw the four of them performing, she knew that these guys had been deceived. She held back her laughter, but she wanted to cough.

The six people then continued to chat, and the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more lively as the New Year was getting closer and closer. Finally, amid the voices of countless people congratulating each other, c.e.70 has arrived.

"Are you not dancing?" Lux walked over with her skirt. She had just finished dancing with Aslan.

"I've danced several times. I'm a little tired." Mary was not very interested in dancing. Except for starting to dance with her adoptive father Ger and Uncle Bartley Ger, she barely danced a song with Nicole. But I have to say that Nicole was too short, and after dancing, Mary's waist hurt.

"That's right. Haha." Lux remembered the awkward movements of Mary and Nicole dancing and chuckled softly.

"Sister won't dance?" Mary asked. Lux didn't dance a few times, except for the two elders, and then there were Aslan and the others. He only danced three more songs than Mary.

"Yeah...jump." After Lux said that, he reached out to Mary.

"Happiness is so great." Mary took Lux's hand and walked towards the dance floor.

After Lux and Mary walked into the dance floor, they immediately attracted a lot of attention. Everyone knew that the two young ladies of the Kurain family were both literary and military. One was the goddess of plant and the other was the lily of zaft.

As the music started to move, the two began to move. Red and pink gradually fluttered, their brisk dance steps and graceful figure made people mistakenly think that two butterflies were dancing. The changing dance steps, clear eyebrows, gorgeous costumes, full of vitality and agility. All these words are not enough to describe, just like a baby who just talked, seeing the beautiful morning glow, but cannot be described.

As the last note fell, the two stopped their gorgeous dance steps. A hint of disappointment suddenly appeared in the quiet banquet, and the flying beauty stopped. It was not until the two of them saluted that people reacted and then praised the beauty with warm applause.

"Plant's goddess, zaft's lily. The two major symbols are all called on you, the Kurain family, to take over." Bartley Glas sighed again.

"To be honest, I didn't expect it either." Shigall smiled slightly.

"Just just have fun." The serious Bartley Ger rarely teased Shigale.

After hearing this, Shigall laughed, and Bartley Ger walked onto the stage.

"Let's cheers to the goddess of plant and the lily of zaft." Bartley Gros raised the wine glass in his hand.

"Cheers." xn.

After hearing Bartley G's words, Lux and Mary hurriedly walked up to the front and saluted everyone.

"Zaft's lily." Lux said secretly to Mary.

"What's the point? Plant's Goddess." Mary also rolled her eyes secretly.
