Charles was wearing a black suit, his blond hair was carefully arranged, his face was gentle and kind, and he walked over with a trace of curiosity.

The first dance had just ended, and Jane was invited by other gentlemen to the next dance, so as soon as he saw Caroline and the others, he immediately came over to say hello.

"Mr. Bingley, hello," Colonel Black nodded politely and looked at Charles who was coming.

"Oh! It's Colonel Black, hello, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"You know each other?" Caroline raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"Oh! Of course, I met Colonel Black at Pemberley once, and we knew each other naturally."

"I didn't know you saw Colonel Black at Pemberley."

"Don't you know? Well, maybe I went to visit Pemberley Manor alone at that time, and I don't remember it very clearly. Caroline, you know, I was confused and forgot many things afterwards. Naturally, I can't remember whether to take you to Pemberley Manor, after all, we often visited Darcy's house before, didn't we?"

Caroline nodded approvingly: "Well, you are right, you are really confused, I didn't expect Charles to be so self-aware."

Charles:  …

Charles' face froze, he was just talking, don't take it so seriously.

Colonel Black watched the interaction between Caroline and Charles and couldn't help laughing out enviously: "The relationship between you brothers and sisters is so good, I have always wanted to have a younger sister, but unfortunately, my parents only have me as a child ".

"Colonel Black, if you really have brothers and sisters, I'm afraid you won't think this way, because sometimes they really make you worry," Louisa said in a tone of someone who had experienced it.

"Really?" Colonel Black looked at Caroline and Charles with a smile in their eyes.

Although Charles was blocked by Caroline's words, he didn't care, and immediately recovered and sat next to them and chatted with a few people.

While several people were chatting, Georgiana and Darcy also came out of the dance floor and walked towards this side.

"Brother, you can dance the second dance with Caroline, she should be resting now."

"Well," Darcy nodded with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but then his smile disappeared, and even Georgiana's originally happy face collapsed, because Caroline had been cut off.

It was Mr. Krieger who invited Caroline to dance.Colonel Black also took advantage of the opportunity to invite Louisa.

"Hey, Darcy, this way," Charles shouted happily after watching the few people go away, and when he turned around, he saw Darcy standing in the distance.

Darcy and Georgiana could only walk in the direction of Charles. Charles was in a particularly happy mood today. Just now he apologized to Caroline for what happened at Bingley's house that day. Unexpectedly, Caroline directly Forgive him, which made him relieved, and his heart was much more at ease.

As soon as Darcy walked into Charles, he said cheerfully, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, and we haven't met at the previous dances. I finally see you today." After finishing speaking, Charles turned his attention to George. On Anna: "Oh! I have to say a word of admiration, Georgiana, you are so beautiful today."

Charles had a smile on his face, and his tone was extremely sincere and without hypocrisy, which made people feel happy listening to it.

Georgiana showed a bright smile: "Really, today's dress was chosen by Caroline for me, even the jewelry, and the hairstyle, I also think it looks very good."

"I really didn't expect Caroline to have such abilities. It seems that she is getting more and more insightful in dressing up." Charles said happily, and then looked at Caroline who was dancing on the dance floor with a smile on his face: "Look! Now Caroline is getting more and more beautiful, although she hasn't changed much, but she always feels more attractive and charming. If she is still an unmarried lady at this time, I can guarantee that her suitors will definitely set the threshold of the Bentley family. Damn, if she had this ability earlier, even if she treated those suitors with arrogance and indifference because of you, those suitors would not retreat because of this. I believe there will always be a hot heart that will move her, and It didn’t end up being hanged on Darcy, don’t you think so, Darcy, hahaha..."

Seeing Darcy's cold glance over, Charles's laughter gradually weakened until it finally turned into a dry laugh. He touched his nose in embarrassment. Charles realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, and then closed his mouth without saying anything. Yiyan turned around and picked up the wine on the table and took a sip to hide his inner unease.

Georgiana glanced at her brother's face worriedly. Looking at Darcy who was looking unhappy at this time, Georgiana gently pulled his sleeves and showed a stiff smile: "Brother, I want to drink wine."

Darcy's expression was relieved by Georgiana's voice, and he nodded and said, "Well, I'll get it for you."

After Darcy left, Charles breathed a sigh of relief and smiled apologetically at Georgiana.

Although she was a little speechless for what Charles said just now, Georgiana did not blame Charles. Charles was Caroline's brother and Darcy's best friend. It was not wrong to say a few jokes in such an intimate relationship.What's more, Charles' character is also very easy to like him.

"Georgianna, you said that Caroline helped you choose these dress jewelry for you. Did you go shopping a few days ago?"

"Yes, we went shopping yesterday, and we went to the theater to watch a play together," Georgiana said with a smile.

"Oh! It's a pity I didn't accompany you, and I haven't seen a play for a long time."

"Next time we can be together, we have a lot of time to watch dramas, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

"That's right," Charles pursed his lips and smiled.

While the two were chatting, Elizabeth came over, and Charles caught a glimpse: "Have you finished dancing?"

"Well, this song is over, but Jane was invited by someone else, so Charles, I'm afraid you will have to hurry up to dance with Jane next time."Elizabeth came over and said with a smile.

"Well, indeed, you said so."

"Miss Darcy, hello," Elizabeth looked at Georgiana next to her and greeted with a gentle smile. She had a very good feeling for Georgiana, and she liked this introverted but kind person very much when she got along with her at Pemberley Manor. Miss Darcy.

"Hello, Miss Bennet," Georgiana replied with a smile, feeling extremely embarrassed. She had already watched Darcy come over with two glasses of wine. This Miss Bennet was once a favorite of her brother. Now that the two meet, I don't know how embarrassing it will be. Thinking of that scene, Georgiana feels extremely awkward in her heart as if she is one of them.

Georgiana murmured silently in her heart, hoping that Caroline could come over quickly, but unfortunately, Caroline had already accepted the invitation for Colonel Black's next dance. Although it hadn't started yet, the two were standing The edge of the dance floor was laughing and chatting waiting for the next dance to start, so Caroline had no idea of ​​the scene on this side.

Darcy came over with two glasses of wine, with a calm expression, and handed a glass of wine to Georgiana.

"Brother~Brother", Georgiana looked at Darcy worriedly with the wine glass.

Patting Georgiana on the shoulder, Darcy turned around and looked at Elizabeth, nodded indifferently and said, "Good evening, Miss Bennet."

"Good evening, Mr. Darcy," Elizabeth twitched the corners of her mouth stiffly, feeling more and more bitter in her heart.

A trace of unbearableness flashed across Darcy's eyes, but he finally calmed down. He didn't want to hurt Elizabeth, but short-term pain was better than long-term pain. He hoped that Elizabeth could let go of the past, after all, it was impossible between the two of them.

Since he said it last time, after seeing Elizabeth again this time, Darcy felt much calmer, and he had really put Elizabeth down.

Seeing the embarrassing scene, Charles was very uncomfortable, and immediately said loudly: "Darcy, you are so stupid, you have to go so far to get the wine by yourself, even though there are servants serving", and then he brought the wine to this side The servant who came came greeted him.

Charles put his empty glass on the plate, served two more glasses of wine, and gave one to Elizabeth before jokingly said: "Darcy, you are not a gentleman at all, and you don't know how to take care of ladies, so you drank it yourself first." , but I've known you for so many years, you've never been interesting, I'm used to it, okay, don't keep your serious face, you should be gentle, otherwise later you will think of the gentleman who wants to invite Georgiana We are all scared away." After finishing speaking, Charles turned his head and said to Elizabeth: "Elizabeth, let's go to dance. It is very boring to stay with Darcy at the ball. Let's go, this dance is about to begin gone."

Elizabeth glanced at Darcy, forced a smile and nodded, took Charles's arm and walked towards the dance floor with him.

As soon as Elizabeth and Charles left, Georgiana breathed a sigh of relief, took Darcy and sat down, drank a sip of wine and chatted with Darcy.

"Mr. Darcy, hello." While the two were talking, a figure stood in front of them and interrupted their words.

"Mr. Whedon, hello." Darcy nodded lightly. This Mr. Whedon is an heir to an earl and is unmarried. Darcy naturally knows the purpose of his coming.

Sure enough, after Mr. Whedon greeted Darcy, he set his eyes on Georgiana next to him, showed a gentle and polite smile and said, "Miss Darcy, may I ask you to dance?"

Georgiana turned her head and glanced at her brother. Under Darcy's encouraging eyes, Georgiana turned her head and looked at the young gentleman in front of her with a shy smile: "Of course, Mr. Whedon." After finishing speaking, she stood up and put Mr. Whedon on her arm. arms to the dance floor.At this point the last dance is over.

Darcy looked at the backs of the two walking away, feeling a little lonely in his heart. This is the younger sister he raised with his own hands. Now she has reached the age of marriage. When she thinks that Georgiana will marry other men in the future, Darcy felt a little sad and reluctant, but on the other hand, Darcy hoped that more outstanding gentlemen would invite Georgiana to dance, so that she could marry the gentleman she was satisfied with and live a happy life.

This kind of heart is very contradictory, but in the final analysis, all Darcy's expectation for Georgiana is to hope that she will be happy and safe in the future.
