Xi Xinjie's face was dark all the time in the car, Bei Qiu indulged his fury towards her, and drove all the way to the gate of the palace, Xi Xinjie's expression began to become unnatural, his uneasiness was written on his face, he pursed his lips tightly, not daring to He raised his head, but did not dare to take a step forward alone.
Bei Qiu stretched her arms around his arm, smiled at him and said, "It's okay, you're actually very handsome."
Xi Xinjie pursed his lips, his face was slightly pale, facing Bei Qiu's smile, he couldn't arouse any favor at all, there were only five words in his mind, ugly people often play tricks.
If Bei Qiu knew, she would definitely spit out a mouthful of old blood.
They have come late.
The dinner party is half an hour away.
"The eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion is here with her male companion." The reporter shouted loudly.
The door opened slowly.
Everyone looked towards the door.
A strong light shone into the auditorium as the door opened, and then a pair of slender beautiful legs stepped into the auditorium. The tight black dress highlighted the bumpy figure, and the lace necklace on the neck adorned the perfect neck of this person. The body is even more slender, and the male companion beside her is also wearing a neat suit.
Under such lighting, the feeling of a man's talent and a woman's appearance has invaded everyone's heart.
However.
The next moment, when the two of them completely stepped into the threshold.
Everyone saw those two pairs of eyes, and everyone's eyes changed instantly, laughing, sarcasm, and moved their eyes away one after another, continuing to chat with the people around them.
The attitudes of these people were all in Xi Xinjie's eyes, and his eyes dimmed instantly.
"Miss Bei Qiu, good evening." A gentleman man in court attire made a courtesy to Bei Qiu.
Bei Qiu also bowed and smiled at the same time: "Good evening."
Bei Qiu led Xi Xinjie all the way inside, everyone greeted politely, Bei Qiu nodded and smiled at the others, and whispered to Xi Xinjie: "Don't be so tense, relax."
The corner of Xi Xinjie's mouth twitched, trying to elicit a smile, but the corner of his mouth was still frozen, and finally he could only lower his head with his lips pursed.
"What's the matter?" Bei Qiu handed him the goblet, "Don't you always think about becoming a master? If you want to become a master, how can you avoid such scenes? You have already endured it now Can't stop?"
Bei Qiu's words made Xi Xinjie tremble all over, holding the goblet, puffed out his chest, showing stubbornness in his bones.
"That's right, with confidence, the whole person will look much better." Bei Qiu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Xi Xinjie turned his head away, with a look of disdain, and took a sip of the wine casually. Just as he swallowed his throat, he coughed, "cough cough, cough cough, what is this, it's so choking."
"Wine." Bei Qiu looked at him inexplicably.
"I've been drinking, but...cough cough cough..." Xi Xinjie coughed until tears came down.
Bei Qiu took a sip and said, "Oh, maybe it's because you're underage, so this drink is too strong for you."
"Then you." He remembered that this demon was also underage.
"I, I just took a sip and didn't drink." Bei Qiu cracked a smile.
Xi Xinjie's face flushed immediately, and he angrily put the goblet on the table beside him, then turned his head, without even looking at Bei Qiu.
"Look over there, bumpkin." A girl's sharp voice.
Not too loud.
But it was enough for Bei Qiu and Xi Xinjie to hear it clearly.
Bei Qiu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Xi Xinjie froze all over, and his face, which was flushed with anger just now, turned pale in an instant.
"You dare to come to such an important dinner party even if you are deformed. People nowadays have such thick skins." The girl raised her slender fingers and touched her forehead, pretending to be a noble lady.
"But don't say that. They are supported by the Duke and Duchess. The Duke and Duchess gave birth to such a deformed child in their lifetime." Another girl looked at Bei Qiu and the two sarcastically.
That huge eye was painted with heavy makeup, which made her look like her entire forehead was occupied by this eye, but she still thought it was beautiful and blinked.
Xi Xinjie trembled slightly, bit his lower lip, and made a gesture to leave.
Bei Qiu grabbed Xi Xinjie's hand and said in a deep voice, "What are you doing?"
"I don't want to be humiliated by these people!" Xi Xinjie clenched his back teeth, his nose turned red, and he looked at Bei Qiu angrily.
But Bei Qiu didn't let go of his hand, pressed him down, and restrained his impulse: "Do you know how much embarrassment you will bring to the Duke's mansion and how much trouble you will bring me if you go out from here now? "
Xi Xinjie's pursed lips trembled slightly, but he took a deep breath, turned his face to the side, picked up a cup, pinched his knuckles white, suppressed the idea of going out.
"What are you afraid of? The Duke and Duchess are now on a political mission abroad. Thousands of miles away, can they still protect this deformed girl? I'm still the earl's daughter." The girl proudly fanned the fluffy fan in her hand.
The second girl elbowed the girl and said, "The Duke is two levels higher than the Earl, so be careful not to cause trouble."
Hearing this, the girl's complexion changed immediately, and she raised her voice: "Why, why don't you let me tell you about the deformity!"
this sentence.
Covering up the faint sound of music in the venue, everyone's eyes were on the girl, and following the girl's gaze, they looked at Bei Qiu and Xi Xinjie who were standing aside!
all of a sudden.
The focus of the audience is on the two, two-eyed people.
Pity, disgust, ridicule, schadenfreude, different emotions were exerted on the two of them.
Xi Xinjie could no longer control himself.
He rushed out like crazy.
The door opened and closed instantly, and the banquet hall fell into a terrible silence.
Immediately afterwards, there was a whisper.
"Is that the male companion?"
"My God, why would the daughter of the duke find such an ugly male partner, and still be so unruly?"
"In my opinion, it's because I'm ugly and self-aware that I can't wait to leave. I've disgraced the king and the duke's house." The girl was even more unforgiving.
Everyone secretly nodded in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it in the open, looking at the girl who was fighting against Bei Qiu very strangely.
Bei Qiu drank the wine in the glass, put down the glass gracefully, slowly raised her eyes, and looked at the two talking girls coldly.
There was a slight chill in the eyes, like a lone eagle at night, looking down at the prey that was about to die, the corners of the mouth curled up, and the thin lips moved slightly: "Okay, very good."
