"Tell me something." Allen stepped aside, or Adele would be all over him.

Adele rolled her eyes and said, "Is there a fart in the next sentence?"

Allen looked at her and said, "You don't seem to know what a lady is."

"Nonsense, have you ever seen my lady?"

Allen remembered that when he was hunting the black widow that day, Adele knocked down a member of the opponent in one shot. Her posture was extremely domineering, and she just couldn't be compared to a lady. Immediately she smiled knowingly, and Adele also smiled, her eyes curled into crooked teeth, like a little fox.

"Actually, I want to ask you for a favor."

"As long as you don't ask me to help you pick up girls, you can do anything." Allen pointed.

Kiki's face flushed immediately, and she looked at Adele. The latter said dissatisfiedly, "Don't make me sound like men and women kill each other, Miss, I also have principles."

"Listen for now." Allen shrugged.

Adele snorted and said, "I have to go to a banquet tomorrow night, and I can't shirk it. So I have to find a male companion. After much deliberation, you are the only one."

"May I not go." Allen frowned, if that was the case, then he would have to take another night off with Hughton. He doesn't have much time now, and he prefers to spend time in the house in Hughton and listen to the old drunkard talk about the knowledge of the Rubik's Cube sequence than attending the dinner party.

Allen found that the Rubik's Cube sequence became more and more attractive to him. If it is said that learning this aspect of knowledge at the beginning, I have the idea of adding points for my family's assessment. So now, he really likes this knowledge that combines science and art. He enjoys the process of exploration very much. Every time he solves a technical problem, it brings Allen an unparalleled sense of accomplishment and freshness.

Time is limited, but the ocean of knowledge is almost infinite. He had already wasted one night, and it hurt him to waste another. What's more, social activities are not that important to him now, at least, they have never been so important that they have to be placed above the search for knowledge.

"I don't care, I only have you as my candidate anyway." Adele used a sly trick: "Someone said it so generously before, you can talk to me if you have any concerns, we are friends and so on. And I also I did someone a big favor just now, but this is great, and he doesn't even have the intention to repay him a little bit. Tell me, are there any real friends in this world?"

"Okay, okay." Allen said with a headache. He really couldn't stand Adele's pitiful offensive, so he had to accept it.

Adele immediately jumped up and said, "At eight o'clock tomorrow night, I will go to the academy to find you, see you soon."

After finishing talking, he disappeared without giving Alan a chance to repent, and disappeared in the corridor outside the booth in a blink of an eye, leaving behind Alan who shook his head repeatedly, and a group of teenagers with big eyes and small eyes.

On the second day, when Allen saw a dress sent by Adele herself, he knew that the banquet tonight would not be easy. The dress is almost tailor-made for him. Although the style is very popular, the workmanship and exquisite materials are the value of this dress. Allen put the gown on and looked at himself in the mirror. The narrow waistline made him straighten his back, and the whole portrait was raised by two points, full of energy.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the flying car with the Motson family crest stopped on the academy's parking lot on time. As soon as Allen got into the car, he saw Sheng

Dressed up Adele. Allen was one of them. He was used to Adele's appearance in men's clothing, but now that he is back in a female body, he is really not used to it. Adele directly pulled him up: "Don't say anything, the banquet tonight is not what I want. It's just that grandpa refuses to let me refuse, so I have to dress like this."

Allen spread his hands and said, "It's not bad for you to dress like this, it looks pretty good."

"Really?" Adele smiled.

Allen nodded vigorously.

Adele didn't know what came to mind, she turned her face slightly and said, "What's the use of looking good, I don't want to be a vase to decorate the scenery!"

Hearing her stubborn words, Allen seemed to understand why this girl always dressed in men's clothes on weekdays.

The flying car eventually stopped in front of a hotel in Babylon.

The Venus Hotel has always been the first choice for dignitaries in Babylon to hold social dinners. The hotel is magnificent and magnificent. Just by entering the four giant white stone pillars, you can get a glimpse of its nobility. Not to mention the palace-like lobby, the many wall lamps and crystal lamps, projecting an incomparably brilliant light, as if it would dazzle people's eyes.

There is no doubt that this is a luxurious place. Allen looked around, and the people in the lobby were all personable. Follow Adele into the elevator and go straight to the third floor. The elevator door opened, and someone outside the door was guiding them to the banquet hall. When the door of the hall opened, Adele suddenly said softly, "Take my hand."

Alan didn't know what the hell she was doing, but he still had enough face and gently pulled her catkin. Adele held his hand instead, put on a bright smile the moment the door opened, and dragged him into the hall with strides.

The banquet hall has more than a thousand square meters and is about 20 meters high. Even if hundreds of people can be accommodated in this huge space, it will not be crowded. A singer is performing on the main stage of the hall, and the bands on both sides are playing hard, embellishing a peaceful and prosperous scene. There are long tables on both sides of the hall, which are filled with a variety of food and meals.

Neatly dressed waiters shuttled among the crowd, refilling wine or delivering food to the guests.

When Adele took Alan's hand and walked into the hall, a dozen hot eyes suddenly fell on her, and then transferred to Alan's face. So the meaning in the gaze changed, and Allen glanced at it, and found that the owners of these gazes were all young boys.

"Adele!" A cheerful voice sounded in the crowd, and the people naturally separated from both sides, making way for a handsome young man.

A head of pale golden hair was neatly brushed back, and a young man with a deep outline was filled with a warm smile on his face. Wearing a white suit, he strode forward with open arms and said: "Long time no see, you have become more beautiful than before."

Adele whispered: "This guy is the host of tonight's banquet, Leon William. A troublesome guy, very troublesome!"

Allen looked at her in surprise. It was the first time he heard that Adele would find others troublesome. You must know that she had always played this role in the eyes of others. Moreover, the surname William is not simple. Allen remembered that in the social class, the instructor had popularized the information of the current wealthy family. Among the three giants, the William family is one of them.

If the young man in front of him was from the William family, then Adai

Er'er really couldn't shirk it, after all, it was an invitation from a wealthy family, and the weight was not comparable to that of a famous family. Adele had already gone up to meet her, but she still had time to spare. Taking advantage of the moment when the light at the reception alternated between light and dark, she made a grimace with her tongue sticking out at Allen, and then hugged Leon lightly.

"I'm very happy, Adele. You didn't refuse my invitation, God testifies, when I handed the invitation letter to Mr. Kate, I was so worried that you would ignore it." Leon let go of Adele, no He said in a demeanor but humorous way.

It's a pity that Adele didn't buy it at all. She shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile: "Believe me, I really don't want to go to the meeting, if the old man didn't insist."

And even though Adele was so shameless, Leon still smiled like a spring breeze: "Adele, you are still so humorous."

Seeing it in his eyes, Allen couldn't help admiring Leon's demeanor. Adele retreated to Alan's side, and said in a voice that only Alan could hear: "See, this guy has such a thick skin!"

"Adele, you haven't introduced me yet. Who is this?" Leon looked at Alan and nodded in greeting, even if he saw Adele holding Alan's hand intentionally, this person clearly had a desire for Miss Motsen The young man was not angry at all.

Adele raised her eyebrows and said, "This is Alan, a son of the Bethkind family, and also my lover."

Allen already had a polite smile on his face, but when Adele introduced herself like this, the smile almost froze. Fortunately, he refrained from casting a questioning look at Adele, and still stretched out his hand to Leon and said, "Hello, Mr. Leon."

Leon chuckled with great grace, and politely clasped hands with Allen in mid-air.

"I will definitely ask Mr. Allen about his social skills later on. To be honest, I have been interested in Adele for a long time, but I have never even held her little hand. Unexpectedly, Mr. Allen is the first to get there. I really envy you." Ah." Leon smiled lightly, and said calmly: "You two, please go your own way, I have to greet other friends, and I will come to chat with you later."

After speaking, he politely took the back of Adele's hand and kissed it lightly, and left casually.

As soon as he left, Adele's smile froze, she immediately took out a handkerchief from her bag and wiped it vigorously, and said with a disgusted face: "Damn guy, he dared to kiss me!"

"That's right, you've always been the only one to kiss others," Allen said.

Adele immediately showed her teeth and claws, and Allen asked before she got angry: "Why didn't you tell me that today is the banquet hosted by Master William's family? Also, you didn't tell me that I have to be your lover! "

"Don't be so fierce." Adele immediately put on a cute and pitiful look: "I have no choice but to."

"Then you'd better tell me what he plans to do next!"

"It's gone, it's gone, now that he knows that I have a lover, he will definitely retreat." Adele hurriedly waved her hands.

Allen nodded, and Adele was relieved. Unexpectedly, Allen suddenly reached out and put his arms around her slender waist and pulled her towards him. Adele let out a soft cry and looked at Allen. The latter said with a malicious face: "Since we are lovers, we have to be more intimate. Do you think so? Baby?"

Adele was immediately annoyed by it, and said through gritted teeth, "Is this called cocooning?"
