Anelle didn't want to meet Yesijue, because she didn't know how to face him, so she didn't want to go in for the time being.
So he told a very clumsy lie.
"I want to see the moon."
Chris couldn't help but laugh, pointed at the dark night sky with his finger and said, "My dear, see for yourself."
Anelle looked up in confusion and found that there was a large black cloud floating in the dark night sky, covering the moon tightly. It was difficult to see the stars, let alone the moon.
She couldn't help but smile, "Okay, I can't see the moon anymore, what should I do?"
Chris pointed to himself and said with a smile, "If you don't mind, there is a handsome guy here for your pleasure."
Anelle was amused by him and pushed him with her little hand.
"You? I see it every day. There are no surprises."
Chris raised his eyebrows deliberately, "Then you couldn't see me while you were in China? Don't you miss me?"
Anelle touched her chin, pretending to think seriously, and then said suddenly, "Yeah, I really didn't miss you!"
"What are you talking about? You really don't miss me? I'm really sad. Fortunately, I think about you every day. I'm also worried about whether you will be bullied by others in China, and whether you won't be able to get used to the food there. Food, you're good, you have no conscience and don't miss me at all."
Chris looked angry and stared at her with complaining eyes.
Anelle coughed, changed her statement and said, "Actually, I have a little thought."
"Just a little bit?" Chris said he was still not satisfied.
"Then...a little more?" Anelle gestured cutely with her fingers.
Chris said, "I want a little more, this much."
"You are so greedy!"
"I don't want you to miss me all, it's not greedy anymore." The two of them were talking and laughing in the yard, and an unknown amount of time passed.
At this moment, Chris' cell phone rang.
He answered, nodded and said, "We are here, just in the courtyard, um, go over now."
After hanging up the phone, he said to Anelle, "Let's go in, Bull is looking for us."
Bull is the son of Duke Berg, the host of this banquet, and a good friend of Chris.
Anelle was led into the banquet hall by his hand.
She carefully looked left and right, but could not find Yesi Jue's figure. She thought that he might have left. She felt relaxed, but she felt a little depressed.
Seeing Bull, Bull stood up, walked to her with a smile, took her little hand, and kissed it like a gentleman.
"Little Princess Anelle, why do I feel like I haven't seen you for a few months, and you seem to have become more beautiful again. Ouch, I'm really jealous of Chris."
Chris smiled teasingly, "I accept your jealousy."
He pulled out the chair and asked Anelle to sit down.
Anelle looked at them with a smile and said nothing, listening to the banter between them.
Chris waved to the servant and brought her some small desserts and juice, which she liked.
After Bull finished teasing, he said seriously to Chris, "I have a friend I want to introduce to you, the one I mentioned to you before. He happened to come to the United States recently, so I invited him to the banquet."
Anelle was a little hungry and was eating tiramisu.
At this time, a dark shadow stopped at the table.
A scorching gaze was cast on her, but she didn't notice it at all.
