"If you have something to say, hurry up and say it." Allen stepped aside, or Adele would have leaned against him.
Adele rolled her eyes and said, "Do you have a fart next?"
Allen looked at her and said, "You don't seem to know what a lady is."
"Nonsense, have you ever seen me as a lady?"
Allen remembered that when he was hunting the Black Widow that day, Adele had knocked down one of the other party's members with a single shot. Her posture was extremely domineering, and she could not be touched by a lady. Adele smiled knowingly, and so did Adele, her eyes curved into teeth, like a little fox.
"Actually, I want to ask you for a favor."
"As long as you don't want me to help you pick up a girl, anything can be said." Allen meant something.
Qiqi blushed and looked at Adele. The latter said unhappily, "Don't make me sound like a man and a woman. Miss, I have principles too."
"Listen for now." Allen shrugged.
Adele snorted, "I have to go to a banquet tomorrow night. I can't get away. So I have to find a male companion. After thinking about it, you're the only one. "
"Can I not go?" Allen frowned. If that was the case, he would have to take another night off with Hughton. He didn't have much time now, and he preferred to stay in Hughton's house and listen to the old drunkard talk about the Magic Cube sequence than attending dinner parties.
Allen discovered that the Magic Cube sequence was becoming more and more attractive to him. If he had first learned this knowledge, he would have thought of adding points to his family's assessment. Now, however, he had truly fallen in love with this branch of learning that combined science and art. He enjoyed the process of exploration. Every time he solved a technical problem, it would bring Allen an unparalleled sense of accomplishment and freshness.
Time is limited, and the sea of knowledge is almost infinite. He had already wasted one night, and wasting another made his heart ache. Moreover, social activities were not that important to him right now. At least, they were not important enough to be placed above the quest for knowledge.
"I don't care. You're my only choice." Adele said shamelessly, "Someone said it so generously before. If you have something on your mind, you can talk to me. We are friends. Moreover, I had just done him a huge favor. Now, he didn't even have the slightest intention to repay me. Tell me, are there any true friends in this world? "
"Alright, alright." Said Allen with a headache, unable to withstand Adele's pitiful offensive, so he had to agree.
Adele immediately seemed to have changed into a different person. She jumped up and said, "I'll go to the academy to find you at eight o'clock tomorrow night. I'll see you there."
After saying that, he left, not giving Allen a chance to regret his decision. In the blink of an eye, he had already disappeared into the corridor outside the booth, leaving behind a shaking Allen and a group of youths staring at each other.
The next day, when Allen saw a suit personally delivered by Adele, he knew that the banquet would not be simple. The gown was almost tailor-made for him. Although the style was very common, the workmanship and exquisite materials were the value of the gown. Allen put on his gown and looked at himself in the mirror. The tightened waistline made him straighten his back. His entire body seemed to have been raised by two points, and he was in high spirits.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the flying car with the Morsen Clan's emblem stopped on time on the academy's parking lot. Ellen got into the car and saw Adele dressed up in her best clothes. Allen was one of them. He was used to seeing Adele dressed as a man, and now that she had returned to her female body, he was really not used to it. Adele pulled him up and said, "Don't say anything. I don't want to have a banquet tonight. It's just that Grandpa refused to let me refuse. That's why I had to dress like this. "
Allen spread out 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 thought of something and 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 up as a man on normal days.
The flying car finally stopped at the entrance of a hotel in Babylon.
The Venus Hotel had always been the place of choice for dignitaries and nobles in Babylon to hold social dinners. The hotel was magnificent and magnificent. Just the four white stone pillars at the entrance were enough to give a glimpse of its noble bearing. Not to mention the palace-like lobby, the many wall lamps and crystal lamps cast an incomparably brilliant light, as if they were going to dazzle people's eyes.
There was no doubt that this was a place of luxury. Allen looked around and saw that all the people in the lobby were elegant. He followed Adele into the elevator and went straight to the third floor. The elevator door opened, and someone was already leading them to the banquet hall. As the door to the hall opened, Adele suddenly whispered, "Take my hand."
Allen didn't know what she was up to, but he still gave her enough face and gently pulled her hand. Adele held his hand, and the moment the door opened, she put on a bright smile and strode into the hall with him.
The banquet hall was more than a thousand square meters and about twenty meters tall. Even if hundreds of people were to be placed in this large space, it would not be crowded. On the main stage of the hall, a singer was performing, and the bands on both sides were playing hard, painting a scene of peace and prosperity. There were long tables on both sides of the hall, filled with a dazzling array of food and snacks.
Neatly dressed waiters shuttled through the crowd, adding wine or delicacies to the guests.
When Adele pulled Allen's hand into the hall, more than a dozen gazes fell on her and shifted to Allen's face. As a result, the meaning of the gaze changed. Allen swept his gaze and found that the owners of these gazes were all young boys.
"Adele!" A cheerful voice rang out from the crowd, and the crowd naturally parted to make way for a handsome young man.
A pale golden head was neatly combed behind his head, and the young man with a deep outline had a warm smile on his face. Dressed in a white suit, he strode over with open arms and said, "Long time no see. You've 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. This was the first time he had heard that Adele would think others were troublesome. She had always played this role in the eyes of others. Moreover, the surname William was not simple. Allen remembered that in social class, the instructor had once popularized the information of the current wealthy families. Of the three great clans, the William Clan was one of them.
If the young man in front of her was from the William Clan, then Adele would not be able to get rid of him. After all, it was an invitation from a wealthy family, and its weight was not comparable to that of a wealthy family. Adele had already gone up to greet him, but she still had time to make a face at Ellen with her tongue out at the moment when the lights of the reception alternated between light and dark before hugging Leon gently.
"I'm very happy, Adele. You didn't refuse my invitation. God is my witness. When I gave the invitation to Mr. Kate, I was so worried that you would ignore it. "Leon let go of Adele and said humorously.
Unfortunately, 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 party, if the old man hadn't insisted."
Even though Adele didn't give him any face, Leon still smiled like a spring breeze, "Adele, you're still so humorous."
Allen couldn't help but admire Leon's bearing when he saw this. Adele retreated to Allen's side and said in a voice that only Allen could hear, "See, this guy's skin is so thick!"
"Adele, you haven't let me introduce you yet. Who is this? " Leon looked at Allen and nodded in greeting. Even though he saw that Adele was intentionally holding Allen's hand, the young man, who clearly had the intention of pursuing Miss Morson, was not angry at all.
Adele raised her eyebrows and said, "This is Allen, a disciple of the Bescot family, and my lover."
Allen already had a polite smile on his face, but when he heard Adele introduce him, his smile almost froze. Fortunately, he refrained from casting an inquiring gaze at Adele. He still stretched out his hand to Leon and said, "Hello, Mr. Leon."
Leon chuckled gracefully and politely shook hands with Allen in midair.
'"I'll definitely ask Mr. Allen for his social skills later. To be honest, I've been interested in Adele for a long time, but I haven't even held her little hand. Unexpectedly, Mr. Allen was the first to do it. I really envy him." Leon smiled faintly and said calmly, "Please help yourself. I still have to greet other friends. I'll come back to chat with you later."
With that, he politely took the back of Adele's hand and kissed it lightly before leaving.
As soon as he left, Adele's smile froze. She immediately took out a handkerchief from her bag and wiped it hard. "Damn it, he actually dared to kiss me," she said with a disgusted expression.
"That's right, you've always been the only one who kissed others." Said Allen.
Adele immediately bared her fangs and claws, and Allen asked before she could, "Why didn't you tell me that today was a banquet hosted by the Williams? Also, you didn't tell me that I had to be your lover! "
"Don't be so fierce." Adele immediately put on a pitiful look. "I didn't have to."
"Then you'd better tell me what else he plans to do next!"
"No, no. He knows that I have a lover now, so he'll definitely retreat." Adele hurriedly waved her hand.
Allen nodded, and Adele was relieved. Unexpectedly, Allen suddenly reached out and grabbed her slender waist and pulled her to his side. Adele let out a soft cry and looked at Allen. The latter said with a malicious expression, "Since we're lovers, we have to be more intimate. Don't you think so? Baby? "
