The delicate heroine just wants to be favored by the villainous lady

Maybe Adele is her sun.

As a purple epiphyllum blooming in the dark night.

She never had the chance to see the sun.

Edith really wanted to say hello to Adele, but under such publicity, it was somewhat impolite, so she had to give up.

And Adele also told her with a wink that she would come to her in a while.

Chapter 290 IX: She Is Already the Girl Who Has a Date with Me

Adele's appearance really surprised many people.

They obviously never thought that such an important dinner party would have a girl with such a low bloodline as Adele appearing.

That was the source of those stares of wonder that fell on Adele.

Well, now it seems.

At the banquet where the influential figures of the entire Mudu will appear.

Adele is really the girl who was not invited!

But whether it was Hermione or Aunt Mona, they all chose to bring her out.

This gave Adele a rare feeling of peace of mind and warmth.

The three of them sat down under the leadership of the waiter.

As a popular figure in the upper class, Aunt Mona naturally received attention and popularity early on.

She herself was also gracefully holding a goblet filled with scarlet wine, and went to the circle of the scarlet nobles to chat and laugh happily.

Leaving Adele and Hermione behind, they looked at each other in place.

Hermione poured a drink for her maiden.

Then I said.

"Alcohol or something, I dare not let you drink it again."

Adele pouted her lips, thinking it was true or not.

If you are obviously drunk, Hermione, you are the one who can take the biggest advantage.

But Hermione knew it too.

Even if she took advantage of Adele, she could not escape the fate of being punished afterwards.

Of course, that punishment is not severe.

On the contrary, it can also be called "interest".

"So is the banquet starting now?" Adele took the transparent cup from Hermione's hand.

The cute girl licked it lightly like a kitten drinking water.

It's a taste I've never tasted before, sweet and not bad.

But the taste is slightly astringent, perhaps because of the freshly squeezed juice.

Hermione answered Adele's question.

"Yes, it has already started, and we are the last ones."

"But it's okay, this banquet is not serious, or the serious moment has not come yet."

"Now we just need to eat, drink, or chat with people, and wait for Daphne, the master of the banquet, to announce the real purpose of this banquet."

"Hey! Hermione didn't know that this banquet was held.

What is the purpose? "

Adele exclaimed in surprise.

Hermione thought to herself, she was tied up on the bed, as if ants were crawling all over her body, so crisp and itchy for a whole day.

Then finally waited until Adele was liberated.

At this time, the maid came over and told the two that their mother wanted them to accompany them to the banquet.

In this case, how could Hermione know the channel conditions?

She was just telling Adele to relax based on her experience in the banquets she usually attended.

It's no use rushing anyway.

So Hermione shook her head at Adele, showing a helpless look.

Adele smacked her mouth.

"Then I'll go ask someone else."

"Who are you looking for?" Hermione was sensitive to this and asked curiously.

"Edith." Adele read Edith's name in a brisk tone as if she wanted to see Hermione's reaction on purpose.

"Is she here?"

But Hermione didn't seem to notice Adele's little thoughts, and just asked in surprise.

Adele felt that there was something wrong in Hermione's tone, so she asked.

"Can't Edith come?"

"It's not... but Adele, haven't you noticed that Ms. Chen Xi didn't come to the banquet held by Daphne's ancestor?"

Adele showed a dazed expression.

"Is it because of Daphne's affection for Ms. Chen Xi that surpasses that between companions!"

Hermione nodded.

"In order to avoid suspicion, Ms. Chen Xi basically avoids occasions where Daphne's true ancestor is present."

"However, the mobilization of the blood trial for all the younger generations of the blood race last time was an exception."

"But even if it is an exception, Ms. Chenxi is just a simple communication with Daphne's ancestor at the maximum distance."

"I was surprised that Edith came to the banquet without the company of Ms. Chen Xi."

"It stands to reason that Ms. Chen Xi should remind her."

"Historically, Daphne's true ancestor couldn't love her, and she had launched many pursuits for Ms. Chenxi's descendants."

"I don't know if it's really out of love for Wu and Wu, or it's just to attract Ms. Chen Xi's attention in this way."

"Eh!?"

What Hermione said caused an uproar in Adele's heart.

Doesn't that mean...

Daphne might lay hands on Edith! ?

Old cows eat young grass?

But it's the tender grass of Adele, the calf!

Thinking of this, Adele got up with a drink.

"Hermione, I'm leaving for a moment!"

"...Okay." Hermione understood Adele's worry.

So, under the watchful eyes of the girl, the petite Adele shuttled among the members of the banquet, trying to find Edith's whereabouts.

Fortunately, she eventually found it.

But unfortunately, Edith at that time was just in the stage of being accosted by that stunning rose-like and dangerous woman.

The true ancestor of Daphne extended an olive branch to a junior whose status was much lower than hers.

How can this not be flattering.

Perhaps Edith attended the banquet out of such feelings?

Or……

Adele's heart trembled suddenly.

It wasn't just because she watched Daphne's ancestor reaching out to Edith, and Edith responded, took the hand of a mature woman, and walked with her towards the balcony where the wind was blowing.

It was also because Adele suddenly recalled a description she saw in the original book.

Originally, people didn't care about it, but at this moment, it gave birth to a meaning that is hard not to think about.

That is, after Edith left the academy, she quickly got help from the nobles, helping her quickly gain a foothold among the blood clans.

This noble man... who is not clearly described in the original book.

At first, Adele thought it would be Ms. Chenxi who had woken up.

But looking at it now...is there a possibility that the noble person who helped Edith...could be the true ancestor of Daphne?

And Edith in order to get her favor and support.

What price should I pay?

Adele may have guessed the answer.

It's just that she pursed her lips tightly and didn't say a word.

I also want to pretend to be ignorant.

That kind of thing...she didn't want to know.

But the legs involuntarily moved towards where the two of them were going, and followed them secretly.

At the same time, the corners of the lips of Daphne's true ancestor raised a curved arc.

It seems that there is a red-eyed little fox... following up~

She felt the soft touch of the small hand in the palm.

Slowly overlapping with the hand stretched out by the woman towards him in memory...

But it really can't compare, even her descendants... the same.

Fanny wouldn't play that substitution game.

Dawn is Dawn, and Edith is Edith.

So in the final analysis, she still wanted to get Chen Xi to notice her by getting close to Edith.

Daphne didn't care whether she would be sad or angry about it.

As long as one's own existence can stay in Chen Xi's heart for even a moment, that's enough.

Edith didn't seem to know much about the past between herself and Chen Xi.

He foolishly listened to what he had to say to her.

And because of politeness, he didn't dare to refuse the hand he extended to her.

But this is normal, Chen Xi herself is not good at being on guard, and she will not teach her offspring to be on guard.

Even though thousands of years have passed, Chen Xi is still the idealist who is willing to sing in return when the world kisses her in pain.

She looked at the world, thinking that there is nothing in this world that is not beautiful.

It's a pity that the world doesn't make her wish.

On the balcony where the wind was blowing, Edith tried to break free from the palm of Daphne's ancestor.

In the final analysis, it was only because of the difference in status between them and her respect for Daphne's true ancestor that she could not refuse her invitation and passed her hand over.

But in fact, there were many flashes in Edith's mind at that moment, and the one that shook her the most was the smile that Adele showed her.

Even a condescending, mocking, little devil smile.

For young girls, it is also a particularly precious memory.
