Koi host is sweet and flirtatious

Chapter 167 Madam Always Wants to Run with Ome 8
When Jacob held the little hand of the girl he was thinking of, he felt a sense of joy that he had never felt before. He felt that this might be the happiest moment in the past 20 years.

Of course, this feeling was fleeting, and Jacob's heart was suddenly empty. But he didn't change anything on the surface, and he still looked at Alice with that gentlemanly and docile attitude.

In fact, Alice has been observing him from the very beginning, and she was slightly disappointed to see that Jacob hadn't changed in any particular way.

Maybe, he has forgotten it.
Of course, this will not break Alice's determination to courtship. She has always had no hesitation in her feelings.
Even if he doesn't remember her, so what?
As long as she can make him fall in love with her and be with him, that is Alice's ultimate goal.For this goal, she doesn't care about any gains or losses.Even if she goes on a rampage, she will move forward without turning back.
Alice has always been that way.

The people around had already sensed the mysterious atmosphere between these two people, so they began to reduce their sense of existence.
The old lady kept giving Chi Xiaoyu winks, asking her what was going on?

Chi Xiaoyu saw that Alice didn't want to reveal her identity, and of course she couldn't say much as an outsider, so she pursed her lips and shook her head, expressing that she didn't want to explain.

The old lady was not a fussy person, so when she saw this, she didn't ask any more questions.After all, this was also a matter between their young people, and it was not easy for her to get involved.

After reminiscing for a while, everyone entered the mansion together
At this time, the old prince was in the study on the second floor overlooking the crowd.

Alice and Chi Xiaoyu were taken by Jacob to their respective rooms to rest and wait for the evening dinner.

After Gu Siyuan greeted his mother, he immediately walked into the study.The two greeted each other briefly, and then Gu Siyuan reported the work of the Duke's mansion to his father during this period.

Since the old duke has handed over the management rights to Gu Siyuan, he doesn't bother to take care of these things anymore——

"Didn't I say that you don't need to report these things to me in the future." He waved his hand and interrupted directly.

"." Gu Siyuan immediately closed his mouth when he heard the words.

There was a sudden silence between the two.
It wasn't that Gu Siyuan was unhappy, so he didn't want to talk, but he really couldn't think of anything else he could talk to his father about besides reporting work.

Although Gu Siyuan didn't feel anything, the old duke still couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere.

He glanced up at him—

"Since there's nothing else, how are you and your wife getting along?" He tried hard to find a topic to talk about.

No matter what, he is still his son, so he can't really not care about him.

The old duke still likes the daughter left by his old friend very much, so he is willing to learn more about the situation between the two, after all, he knows what kind of virtue his son is.
Gu Siyuan looked at the old prince and said, "Very good." He spoke very briefly.

It was rare for the old Duke to hear good things from him, so he became even more curious.
On the contrary, Gu Siyuan, who has never been very good at talking, became talkative when he met Chi Xiaoyu.
So it was the first time that the father and son had such a good time and chatted for an afternoon.

On the contrary, Alice's side, although not so sad, must still be disappointed.

"Aren't you going to reveal your identity to him?" Chi Xiaoyu looked at Alice, who was lying on the bed autistically, and raised her eyebrows.

"Ahhh, I think so too! But judging by his behavior just now, doesn't it mean he doesn't remember me?" Alice rolled back and forth on the bed with her pillow in her arms.

"You haven't seen each other for so long, it's understandable that he didn't recognize you." Chi Xiaoyu felt confused when she felt that she was a little concerned.

"I understand, but I clearly revealed my identity when I was a child. If he remembered, he should have recognized me when he was introduced just now." Alice's explanation was well-founded.

"." Chi Xiaoyu choked, this time she didn't know how to persuade her.

"But how do I feel that he remembers you?" She whispered.

According to Chi Xiaoyu's observation just now, Jacob's attitude towards Alice is obviously different from that of others.Chi Xiaoyu can see something strange in his eyes, she has always been very sensitive to this aspect
"What did you say?" Chi Xiaoyu spoke so softly that Alice couldn't hear her clearly.

Chi Xiaoyu looked at Alice, then smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing." After all, this was a matter between the two of them, so she'd better not get involved.

The two fell silent for a moment.
"Do you think my behavior just now was particularly stupid?" Alice said suddenly.

She regrets very much now, at that time, she was not prepared in advance, so she was pushed to the shelves, which made her regret now——

That was the first time she and Jacob met. First impressions are very important to a person.She was afraid that her performance just now was not good enough, which would reduce her impression in Jacob's heart.

"No, you just care too much about these things." Chi Xiaoyu comforted him helplessly, "Sometimes you might be more comfortable and make others comfortable, right?"

"Yeah." Alice touched her chin, "That's right."

After a while, "But I still care about it!" She cried and buried her head in the pillow again.

"Hey, don't think about that!" Chi Xiaoyu directly lifted him off the bed——

"I asked the deacon to help us get dessert~ Do you want to meet him again with this image?" She raised her eyebrows.

"What?! Didn't you say it earlier?!" Alice hurried out of bed upon hearing this, then tidied up her whole body, and then sat gracefully on the small sofa opposite Chi Xiaoyu.
*
At dinner time, except for the subtle atmosphere between Alice and Jacob, the other parts seem to be pretty good
The Howard family is not a rigid family, so they don't pay too much attention to rules and etiquette when facing their own people.

Although the old duke is calm, he is not taciturn; although the old lady is elegant, she will also become humorous when facing things she likes.
Even Gu Siyuan, who has always been taciturn, was moved by Chi Xiaoyu's enthusiasm, so everyone had a good dinner.

Perhaps the most unpleasant thing was Alice who didn't talk to Jacob at all.

Chi Xiaoyu came to her room and saw someone slumped on the bed again, helplessly holding his forehead.

"What's the matter?" She raised her eyebrows and sat down.

"Eh——" Alice let out a strange voice with her eyes empty, her face sluggish.

"Be normal, don't act like a zombie." Chi Xiaoyu said with disgust.

"What is a zombie?" As a purebred Imperial, Alice had never heard of this term.

　Every time I see Caroline, I think of "Bankrupt Girls", and I suddenly regret giving Alice this surname. I feel that her name is a bit too scribbled?

　　Also, the names of the protagonists in this article seem to have a little meaning, I don’t know if you can see it?

　　Finally, remember to vote~
