The dance ended quickly and it was time to sit down for dinner. Liu Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was finally over.
The rules for sitting at a table at a Western dinner are very particular, and the seats are usually arranged in advance. Hell and his fiancée sat at the upper and lower parts of the rectangular table respectively. To Alice's right was the male guest of honor, Liu Xun, and to Hell's right was the female guest of honor, Catherine.
Hell pulled out a chair for Catherine, and Liu Xun also pulled out a chair for Hell's fiancée. After the ladies were seated firmly, Hell and Liu Xun took their seats.
After you are seated, you cannot pick up your napkin before the host does. So wait until Hell and Alice pick up their napkins before Liu Xun and the others pick up their napkins.
The whole dining process was quite pleasant. Because Liu Xun was the male guest of honor, he was accompanied by the hostess and Hell, so he only needed to talk to Alice and Hell, which indeed saved a lot of unnecessary trouble.
At about one o'clock in the morning, the guests of the banquet left one after another, and finally only Liu Xun, Catherine, Hell and Alice were left.
"Liu Xun, we still have to discuss alliance matters tomorrow! Hasn't your health been not good? Go and get some rest." Before Liu Xun could open his mouth to speak, Hell gave Liu Xun a look.
"... "Liu Xun cursed hell in his heart no less than a hundred times. In the end, he just nodded and said nothing, because he was afraid that if he spoke, he would not be able to help but curse hell.
"Mr. Liu Xun, are you feeling unwell? I have studied medicine for several years. Let me take a look at it for you?" But just as Liu Xun was about to leave his seat, Catherine's voice suddenly rang out. Liu Xun was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to respond.
"No need, you can't cure his disease." Hell said to Catherine unrighteously, not caring about Liu Xun's gloomy face at all.
"What disease? Is it cancer?" Catherine asked in confusion. After she finished speaking, Alice beside her chuckled. She naturally knew what Hell was planning.
"No, it's not cancer, but it's scarier than cancer!" Hell said mysteriously, then he was silent for a while and continued, "It's a disease related to physical health."
"..." Liu Xun was completely speechless. Catherine frowned when she heard this, looked at Liu Xun and said, "Are you physically unhealthy or do you just not like taking a bath?"
"Uh... I'm sleepy. I'll go and rest first." Liu Xun didn't plan to stay here any longer, but when he stood up, he found that he didn't know which room to go to, so he looked towards hell.
Hell shrugged, pointed around randomly, and said, "You can stay in any room! But remember to lock the door, this place is haunted at night."
"Uh... you are scarier than a ghost." Liu Xun said to himself. Without replying, he walked towards the living room and randomly found a room.
After Liu Xun entered the room, he fell asleep quickly, probably because he had been on a flight for eight hours and had been busy until now!
In fact, taking an eight-hour flight and attending a dance are nothing. The most important thing is that before doing these things, Liu Xun also participated in a war. This war was undoubtedly mentally and physically exhausting, so he needed to rest.
I don’t know how much time had passed, maybe 1 hour, maybe several hours, anyway, Liu Xun was in a daze.
But at this moment, his originally confused and lifeless eyes suddenly became sharp, because there was a body pressing on him, and... that body was very soft.
Liu Xun knew who this person was, but he didn't expect this woman to be so proactive. At this moment, Catherine and Liu Xun looked at each other. She didn't know what kind of eyes these were. These eyes became extremely sharp in an instant. Catherine would have no doubt that if she had any hostility towards Liu Xun, she would have become a corpse now.
"How did you get in?" Liu Xun remembered that he had locked the door and checked it again, and closed the windows to avoid such a thing from happening. Because if a man and a woman can live in peace in the same room, then they are not men, but eunuchs...
"What are you thinking about? Has your thinking ability decreased so much? This is my home, how do you say I got in?" After Catherine finished speaking, Liu Xun raised his eyebrows slightly. He had indeed asked a very stupid question.
Catherine swept Liu Xun's face with her golden hair, her extremely plump breasts stood upright, and one hand couldn't hold them. Her slender waist twisted like a water snake, and her long and strong thighs sat on Liu Xun's waist.
Liu Xun's pupils contracted, not because of Catherine's temptation, but because this scene reminded him of Situ Ying. In fact, no matter what, the shadow of Situ Ying had completely remained in Liu Xun's heart.
"I'm impotent..." Liu Xun said softly, but his palm grabbed Catherine's pink neck and pressed it against his face, their faces almost touching.
Catherine smiled slightly, brushed her jade hand over the part of Liu Xun that had already responded, and said softly: "It's okay, I'm frigid, I don't care about the depth or length."
"I was wrong. I was talking about the past." A hint of pink flashed in Liu Xun's pupils, and he turned around and pressed Catherine under him.
"I remembered it wrongly too..." Catherine threw her pajamas aside, and the two bodies intertwined together. After a while, moans were heard in the room.
In the early morning, as the sun rose, Liu Xun opened his eyes. Liu Xun was the only one on the bed, and Catherine had disappeared. However, some traces on the bed showed that what happened last night was true.
The sheets and quilts were almost all covered in blood, which showed how intense the fight was last night.
"Uh... I'm in trouble." Liu Xun frowned slightly, looking at the several teeth marks on his body and muttered to himself.
"It seems that I must quickly control this power, otherwise there will be big trouble in the future." Liu Xun yawned, put on his clothes, and walked out of the room.
At this time, Hell was having breakfast. When he saw Liu Xun, he smiled and said, "Hi, Liu Xun, how did you sleep last night?"
"Very good, I just had a dream that I shouldn't have had." Catherine was not here, and Liu Xun was not sure whether Hell knew about this, so he could only say it vaguely.
"A wet dream? But this is reasonable. It's normal for you at your age." Hell pointed to the sandwiches and milk on the side, motioning Liu Xun to come and eat.
Liu Xun shrugged and walked to the dining room to start eating. He did not notice Alice who was cleaning the room. Unlike China, people in Britain need to clean their own houses, even the living room.
"What was supposed to happen finally happened." Alice looked at the blood on the sheets and bedding, shook her head and chuckled.
After breakfast, Liu Xun knew that the main event was about to begin. The so-called alliance meeting was about to begin! Following behind Hell, Liu Xun walked towards the meeting room, his expression neither humble nor arrogant, and he was calm and composed. Because he represented not an individual, but the entire China!
The conference room was not big, and could only hold about a hundred people, so those who came this time were the future leaders of the major families. Catherine and Alice were also there, but when this woman saw Liu Xun today, her expression was also very calm, as if what happened yesterday had never happened.
Liu Xun followed Hell into the conference room, and many people looked at him. Liu Xun smiled and walked forward calmly, and finally sat in a chair in the middle.
"Young man, isn't it too disrespectful to sit in that seat without even saying hello?" A middle-aged man spoke up when Liu Xun sat down. Although that seat was reserved for Liu Xun, they didn't expect that Liu Xun would actually dare to sit there, and even sat down without their permission.
"Have I disrespected you? Aren't seats meant for people to sit on?" Liu Xun picked up the red wine on the table and took a sip.
"Don't you see there are several ladies around? Don't you know what gentlemanly manners and ladies first mean?" A woman from an aristocratic family said softly.
Liu Xun said nothing, just looking at the red wine in the glass.
"Young man, I heard that you were very graceful at the banquet yesterday, but why are you so high-profile today? Could it be that you were just putting on a show yesterday?" another person from a noble family asked.
Liu Xun blew on the red wine, then drank the wine in the glass, and said calmly: "Yesterday was a banquet hosted by my friend Prince Hart, so I must treat it with the courtesy of a friend, follow the local customs, and act according to your British rules."
"But today is different. Today we are talking about the alliance between the noble families, which is related to the friendly cooperation between countries! You can say that I represented an individual yesterday, but today I represent the entire China! Do I have to bow my head in front of your British noble family? If I bow my head, then can we still talk about this alliance? What qualifications does China have to continue the discussion?"
"Brat, do you know where this is?" After Liu Xun finished speaking, a young descendant of a British aristocratic family said in a cold voice.
"Yes, the palace of the British royal family, Buckingham Palace!" Liu Xun stood up from his chair and slowly walked towards the young man. When he reached the young man, he said, "Do you know who you are talking to? It's not a person named Liu Xun, but the entire China! So please be more respectful in your tone, otherwise this alliance... there is really no need to talk about it."
"Young man, do you think we are begging you, the Huaxia Alliance?" A middle-aged man from an aristocratic family felt uncomfortable after hearing Liu Xun's words, so he spoke up.
Liu Xun shook his head and said seriously: "You are wrong. In this future battlefield, no country will ever beg to form an alliance with another country. The so-called alliance is nothing more than based on interests and fairness! Since there is no fairness, how can we talk about the interests below?" (To be continued)
