The Li family is located in the center of the city, and the entire house is built in the style of a classical castle, covering a very large area. If you take a shuttle, it will take half an hour to walk through the outer wall of Li's house.
When An Mulan followed Ling Xihan to Li's house, it was dusk. It was not completely dark at this time. From time to time, luxurious speeding cars landed on the vast parking lot. Below, it shows the rich charm of history.
Looking at this scene, An Mulan felt inexplicably familiar.
She remembered that when she was still alive, she had seen many such landscape pictures. When she was young, she even had the idea of going to travel and see for herself after retirement.
But now, she came back to her senses, glanced at the woman walking in front, and silently lowered her head.
She quietly walked beside Ling Xihan, watching Ling Xihan dealing with those noble people, at that moment, she seemed to be a different person, with a gentle smile on her face , also looks very peaceful and easy to get along with, completely different from her indifference when facing herself.
But An Mulan thought about it, and felt that Ling Xihan like this was more real.
Although she is doing tasks in a virtual time and space, everything in this time and space is real. The virtual space-time has its own set of space-time rules, which will automatically fill in the bugs in the novel.
Therefore, even Ling Xihan, who is indifferent or even cruel in the novel, is a qualified social person when facing celebrities at the moment, who understands the principles of treating people gently and making money with kindness.
And after getting along with each other these days, An Mulan discovered that Ling Xihan is not really a brain-dead, she has the thinking of a real social person, even when facing herself, she does not have a cold face, a look It is the appearance of the villain BOSS.
Perhaps it was because they were not familiar with them, or perhaps it was because she was still useful to her. When Ling Xihan faced her, he was at most silent and did not show and display those terrifying cruelties in the novels in front of her. means.
While An Mulan was thinking about it, she also put on a friendly smile and said hello to the acquaintances she met on the road.
After entering the gate of Li's house, Ling Xihan sent the invitation to the electronic screen at the gate. After registering online, they stepped into the gate, and a retro carriage stopped in front of them.
Ling Xihan helped An Mulan into the carriage, her every move showed that she cared and valued An Mulan, which made it look like they had a very good relationship. People in the upper class are used to acting, and few people are obsessed with authenticity, but this false mask is the most basic.
They got into the carriage, and after a not-so-short period of time, they arrived at the castle garden from the gate of Li's house.
Ling Xihan got off the carriage, took An Mulan's hand very politely, and led her towards the crowd gathering place.
After she got out of the enclosed area of the carriage, she immediately put on a gentle smile. She had a good chat with those people, and introduced An Mulan to her business partners.
An Mulan knew that this was a good opportunity to express herself, so she immediately put on a decent and gentle expression, and greeted every person introduced.
Her every move is very elegant and standardized, and she looks like a complete noble lady, which makes her unanimously praised by the people around her, and gives Ling Xihan enough face. Let Ling Xihan look at her more tenderly.
After more than half an hour before the opening time, the guests probably had almost arrived. An Mulan was dragged to one side of the crowd by Ling Xihan, and the surroundings fell silent tacitly, and the voices gradually disappeared.
At this time, the lights of the castle gathered on the quaint stairs, and from the end, two women walked down slowly, holding hands.
One of them is a luxurious lady.
She is obviously not young, but it can be seen that she is well maintained and looks like she is in her early thirties.
Large pearls adorn her hair, ears, and neck, and even her dark purple dress is decorated with countless broken diamonds; she looks like a luminous body, full of the charm of a mature woman.
At this time, she raised her jaw slightly, with a reserved and noble expression. This person is the mistress of the Li family.
And she is holding a young girl by her side, who looks five points like her. She is wearing a bright red cheongsam, which is embroidered with exquisite peony flowers. This flower blooms on the girl's chest, waist and thighs. , She seemed to be surrounded by peonies.
The expression on the face is also gentle and elegant, looking very charming.
After An Mulan was amazed, she immediately realized that this woman was the protagonist of this birthday party, Miss Li Jiarou, Li Jiarou.
When these two people walked in front of the head of the Li family, everyone seemed to come to their senses. The head of the Li family who was standing a little higher, that is, Li Jiarou's father, said at this moment: "Thank you, everyone. Come to my eldest daughter's birthday dinner, you're welcome and enjoy the evening."
As he spoke gracefully, he backed away and left the most central place to Li Jiarou. Li Jiarou smiled at him, and then walked forward. Another young man in a black evening dress bent down to invite, a gentleman and polite.
The man is tall and upright, the woman is beautiful and elegant, the two are like a pair of lovers who are in perfect harmony. Under the eyes of everyone, they danced the first dance of tonight's dinner.
Seeing this scene, An Mulan sneered in her heart. She knew that this man was the young master of the Zhang family. He looked quite human, but who would have thought that he would do such a thing.
Tonight is destined to be a restless night. According to the plot and memory, many dark things will happen this night.
An Mulan turned her gaze away and focused her attention on the surrounding environment. She carefully observed everything around her with fear in her heart.
Perhaps it was because she didn't cover up her nervousness thoroughly enough that Ling Xihan immediately approached her body and made an intimate gesture. She wrapped her arms around her waist, lowered her head and leaned closer, her lips touched her earlobe, The outsider smiled knowingly, and then walked aside, leaving room for the fiancee.
Only An Mulan heard what Ling Xihan said in her ear. She lowered her voice and asked, "What?"
An Mulan's heart skipped a beat. She felt that Ling Xihan's attitude towards her had changed since she uncontrollably said "You look beautiful" this afternoon. When she was in the company office, she began to When he started to touch her, the previous estrangement and indifference disappeared without a trace, as if he had directly changed from the mode of respectful strangers to the mode of old married couple.
An Mulan rolled her eyes, then smiled, imitating Ling Xihan, she also reached out to hug her slender waist, leaned closer to Ling Xihan's neck, and said, "I think they are very close, and I want to be with you too. I just don’t know if I have the honor to dance a dance.”
Ling Xihan froze for a moment, pulled the corners of her mouth, and revealed a smile, which seemed to have a bad taste. She took a step back, bent slightly, took An Mulan's left hand, and placed a kiss on the back of her hand, Staring at her with deep and narrow eyes, he said: "My fiancée, it is my honor to dance with you, please give me this opportunity."
An Mulan thought about it a few times, and explained Ling Xihan's meaningful behavior at the moment.
Ling Xihan needs her status in the upper class. The purpose of the marriage is to reduce the gap between the common people and the nobles. She chooses to show that she has a good relationship with her under the eyes of everyone, and it is also to tell the nobles, Her sincerity and attitude.
An Mulan figured this out, looked around shyly, and made the caring people on the side show a clear smile, and she smiled sweetly: "Okay, Xihan."
The two stepped into the dancing pool, and An Mulan found the way of dancing in the future in the memory of the original owner, which was very similar to modern dances.
She approached Ling Xihan's side, and put her hands on the other's shoulders. The distance between the two was very close. With the slow and lyrical rhythm of the music, her body also danced.
An Mulan's face was habitually shy. Occasionally, she would boldly raise her head to glance at Ling Xihan, and after meeting the other's gaze, she would quickly lower her head again.
She felt the arms around her waist tightened a little when she was shy, she knew that Ling Xihan liked such shy girls, so she put all her energy on this, trying to impress the other party's heart.
After the song was over, Ling Xihan bowed his head and kissed her forehead, then let go of his hand and said, "I'm going to talk to my partner, you can go eat something and take a rest."
An Mulan nodded obediently, then walked out of the dance floor to the brightly lit eating area. She picked up an empty plate, and in the dessert area, she picked out a few delicious-looking cakes, walked to one side of the dark place and stood there, her eyes slowly scanning the entire banquet hall.
She found Zhang Yao beside Ling Xihan; she found Li Jiarou in the middle of the dance floor, the young master of the Zhang family; she also saw her four older brothers, and a shy woman following behind her third brother.
The moment her eyes touched the woman, she narrowed her eyes.
If she reads it correctly, this woman is the heroine in this novel, a 'delicious' maid who exudes the halo of Mary Sue.
It was the first time she had officially seen the woman, although she had edited videos of her before.
But what she saw on the video was completely different from what she saw at close range in reality. The moment she saw her, she felt disgust and hatred.
This is the deepest feeling left in the heart of the original owner.
Before her eyes, a scene appeared automatically.
That was the original owner's memory. When the real An Mulan returned home, her face was full of loneliness and daze. She stayed in her room before she got married, and her heart was full of numbness and bitterness.
And at this moment, this woman appeared, with an apologetic expression on her face, and immediately knelt down in front of her, with two lines of tears streaming down her face, telling about the atrocities committed by the four men of the An family.
She begged her, she kept crying, and then she left. The end of the original owner has come.
The picture was frozen at this scene, and An Mulan's thoughts were interrupted by the sudden appearance of a figure in front of her eyes.
For a moment, she didn't know whether she was in the original owner's memory or in reality.
Because, just a moment ago, she was still recalling that woman's teary eyes; but at this moment, this woman appeared in front of her with the same expression.
An Mulan pursed her lips, smiled deeply, and said in her heart: The heroine Ye Zixuan, we finally meet.
