It was a girl with fair skin. A simple hood covered her face, and she kept her head down, so Zina couldn't see her face clearly. The girl was wearing a simple and outdated skirt, and her feet were
Those very out-of-place crystal shoes look dazzling
Many - but most people present would show a look of disdain after seeing it: Anyone with a little common sense knows that crystal is difficult to polish into the shape of shoes, let alone suitable for people to wear. This must be just a pair of inlaid shoes.
Just ordinary shoes made of glass.
Coupled with the girl's slightly shabby clothing, it can make everyone confirm their own opinions in their hearts.
The girl came in from the side door. She moved very carefully, as if she was afraid of disturbing others. Her steps were very delicate, and it was obvious that she must be very nervous at this time.
"What a clean little cabbage!" Zina's eyes lit up. She didn't know why, but the moment she saw the girl, she felt a strange emotion tumbling in her heart. Even though she hadn't seen it yet
Once you see the other person's appearance, you will feel attracted to the other person.
Xina swore that she had only felt this feeling from Jane before, but the former was due to a curse, and she could not be more attractive no matter how charming she was. Although the girl in front of her was not as charming as Jane, it still made her feel itchy.
It's hard to bear, not to mention that her movements are so cautious and hesitant, like a small boat floating in the rough waves, as if it might be drowned by the crowd around her at any time - this kind of temperament makes people feel particularly pity.
Zina's heart was beating fast, her eyes fixed on that pure figure.
At this time, a dance music came to an end, and some guests near the side door on the dance floor also noticed the girl who joined in the middle. However, for some reason, although they were quite disdainful of the girl's origins, they could not look away from her.
Move away. A few young people even volunteered to walk over to her and extend invitations to her.
"Beautiful lady, although it is already November and the night outside is indeed a bit cold, there are enough fireplaces in the house to heat the dance. You don't need to wear a hat." A blond young man seemed to notice the girl.
Feeling embarrassed and at a loss, he spoke to her very considerately.
The girl nodded gratefully to him, hesitated for a moment, and then took off her hat.
At this moment, the sound of several wine glasses falling to the ground was heard from a corner of the dance floor.
People who were surprised by the noise turned their heads and looked towards the corner of the dance floor. They wanted to know what was going on. However, the girl was short and was surrounded by people around her. Naturally, the rest of the people couldn't.
See.
The men and women in the corner were different. The moment the girl took off her hat, all the women were eclipsed. The men's eyes were fixed on the girl and could no longer move away.
"What an exquisite beauty!" A middle-aged nobleman murmured in admiration with trembling hands. There were some glass fragments lying at his feet, and the fine wine spilled on the floor.
The young people who had gathered around before all turned red in the face, and they, who were considered sharp-tongued in the aristocratic circle, were speechless. Even the young man who had spoken before was also struck by the anger revealed by the girl.
This pitiful temperament attracted me so much that my mind went blank for a moment.
"My God, she is a goddess from heaven!"
"No, she is so pitiable. Her delicate facial features, fair skin, and pitiful eyes make my blood boil!"
"It is simply a masterpiece of God, a masterpiece!"
People in the corner were whispering in admiration. The women could not help but show jealous eyes, while the men were infatuated with a little embarrassment. They all tried to change their posture to cover up the traceless bulge under their waists.
The embarrassment.
"What a breathtaking beauty." The young man who spoke earlier was the first to recover. He stepped in front of the girl with a quick stride and gracefully stretched out his right arm to invite her: "I wonder if I am lucky enough to be able to
How about dancing with you?"
The girl lowered her head timidly. Except for herself, no one knew the words roaring in her heart——
"Let me go, do you want to be so exaggerated? Isn't it just 30 points of charm? These wretched perverts, do you want to be so exaggerated and look at me... What I want is to sneak in in a low-key manner, not to be noticed in a high-profile manner!!!"
Dulan's speechless complaints could not change the fact that he had been targeted by many men. He originally wanted to rely on his ability to disguise himself as glass slippers and sneak into the dance, but who knew that he had forgotten another attribute of these glass slippers.
The charm of up to thirty points is enough to make most men obsessed with him. Now he is in other
In people's eyes, she is an out-and-out little beauty. Her facial lines have been modified to be extremely soft, her originally slightly thick eyebrows have become light and elegant, her eyelashes appear longer and slender, and they are slightly tilted upwards.
It's as if the eyes can speak - to use Dulan's inner words to describe it, it's a perfect "mistress's face".
"What a little fairy." A sour voice came from the crowd on the side. A noble-dressed woman proudly raised her plump and somewhat bloated chin, not hiding her jealous gaze: "Do you want to find a man?
This place is not suitable for a young girl like you. Even if some of the young men and women present fall in love with you, I'm afraid your father will have to work hard to get enough of the dowry gift."
The woman's harsh words immediately resonated with other women, and several ladies or ladies of noble birth immediately agreed and began to comment on the girl.
The man who made the invitation frowned slightly, then nodded and smiled at the girl and said, "Come on, everyone is here to dance, don't let a few people ruin your interest."
As he spoke, he ignored the ugly expressions on the ladies' faces and moved closer.
The girl gave him a grateful look, blushed and reached out to hold the man's arm.
At this moment, a new dance music played melodiously, and the man politely led her into a corner of the dance floor.
"Sir, thank you." The girl said with a blushing face.
The man said with great grace: "You're welcome. You are very beautiful. Can I know your name? Oh, by the way, I am Eamonn Brown. Have you ever heard of the Gold Nugget Merchant Association? That is my father's industry."
"Hello, Mr. Brown, my name is Ricky Marty." The girl didn't say much. Her steps were very clumsy, and it was obvious that she didn't know how to dance. But Eamonn Brown was obviously a master at it, and he tried his best to guide her.
As the girl walked, her mind was already thinking about how to use her father's influence to get this pure girl in front of her. He had an impeccable demeanor and a very pleasant mouth. He would tell a few jokes from time to time to coax the young lady of Marty's family.
.
"Ricky, have you seen the way those old women look at you? They are very jealous of your youth and appearance. After all, you don't need to wear ninety-nine layers of foundation to attend a dance like them.
…”
The girl smiled implicitly and lowered her head again.
Brown was very satisfied. The girl in front of him was almost impeccable. The only flaw seemed to be that she was too shy and did not dare to look directly at him.
Only the "girl" herself knew that she was worrying about how to get away from everyone's attention at this time - Duran took great pains to sneak into Count Lyle's manor not to find a man as a dance partner. At this time, he had other purposes, but what was in front of him
The situation made him find it very difficult. Another effect of the cross-dressing glass slipper made it difficult for him to escape the enthusiastic gazes of the men. It was almost impossible to sneak away under the gaze of everyone.
"It's really troublesome. If it weren't for the fact that the guards at Lyle Manor are too powerful, even if they kill me, they don't want to do this bloody trick of dressing up as a man." Dulan's mind was running wildly, trying to find a way to temporarily get rid of everyone.
He disappeared from his eyes. "The exhibition should start soon, right? If you want to steal the Deep Sea Crown, you basically only have a few minutes of opportunity. You must quickly get rid of these annoying eyes."
After the dance ended, Duran took the opportunity to let go of Brown's arm, smiled gently and said, "I want to take a rest first. Mr. Brown, you can do it yourself."
Brown smiled heartily and was about to say something when a cold and stiff word came from beside him: "She said she wanted to take a break. Mr. Brown, you'd better find another dance partner."
The girl's body stiffened, and the next moment, her waist was held by another slender arm.
She looked back and saw that the man had heroic eyebrows and a very beautiful appearance——
"No, why is this woman also at this dance?!!"
Dulan's heart was beating wildly, because the woman holding his arm turned out to be the disciple of Grand Duke Jinque, the best friend of Jane Lancelot, and Zina who had met once before at the Xishan Pass! (To be continued)
