Chapter 3111 After the Banquet
Chapter 3110 After the Banquet
After Emilia began to think about what to do next, she gradually realized what she had done. Her face flushed under the red moon until even the tip of her ear was dyed red. Shade didn't expect Emilia to be so bold. He froze there, trying to figure out what the girl was thinking.
Then the atmosphere suddenly became awkward from the previous charming one. When Shade's eyes caught Emilia's, the stranger felt like he saw a rabbit that wanted to run away but bumped into a tree trunk.
[Yes, a rabbit. 】
"She" smiled softly. Although this kind of joke was tasteless, Shade also admitted that it adjusted his mood very well at the moment, at least it allowed him to speak:
"Emilia, maybe you need to calm down."
Shade didn't think about doing anything else now, and he could see that the elf was probably overwhelmed by the momentary emotion:
"We should take it step by step."
"Yes."
Emilia squeezed out the answer from her throat, and then realized that she was still holding Shade's wrist, so she let go in panic, but before Shade wanted to take back his hand, she grabbed his hand again.
The elf girl, who finally mustered up the courage, thought that since she had already made it this far, it would be a pity to give up. I am no longer a young elf, I am a grown-up girl:
"Shad, what have you done to Ajelina and Iluna?"
She looked at Shad with her bright emerald eyes. Shad knew that if he was willing to say some sweet words, he could let Emilia know what a real adult is on this deck, but outsiders always prefer girls to think carefully before making such decisions.
[You like to be passive. ]
"No."
While answering in her heart, Shad pulled her hand out of Emilia's hand:
"Maybe a little closer than you, but not much. Emilia, I don't think you need to compare with others."
"This is not comparison, this is..."
The winter night wind finally made her calm down a little. She figured out what she was hinting at just now. The elf girl had the urge to cover her face and turn around and run away:
"It's not my fault. Your kissing skills are amazing!"
It's amazing that the atmosphere that had just turned from charming to awkward was restored after this sentence. Shade laughed and held her in his arms. Emilia blushed and didn't object. She just felt that what happened tonight was more like a dream than what happened last night:
"Shade, don't let go of my hand."
"Yes, I won't let go since I'm holding it."
"Then can we continue kissing? The dance will probably take some time."
The elf girl made another invitation, and the stranger naturally wouldn't refuse. Compared with human girls, the elf girl's kiss was slightly immature, but bold and unrestrained. The most daring thing was that Emilia invited Shade's right hand again - she proved in this way that her future self was definitely not comparable to the little princess's poor figure.
Shade returned to the banquet hall before the dance started, and the girls tacitly didn't discuss his "disappearance". However, Emilia's wish to dance the first dance with Shade was not realized, because she didn't go back with Shade, but returned to the room with a red face and changed a skirt.
When she appeared in the banquet hall, Shad was already dancing a trio with Megan and Audrey - this was his fourth dance.
"Who did Shad dance the first dance with, Luvia?"
The elf who came back in a hurry asked his two friends, and found that they were examining his new clothes, so he blushed a little, but he didn't intend to explain.
Iluna answered with a glass of wine:
"Originally everyone wanted to wait for you to come back, but Shad said you might need some time. He wanted to invite Luvia to dance the opening dance, so that everyone would have no objection, but Luvia smiled and refused."
Ajelina guessed what might happen to Shad after the elf left, and told her the answer:
"So Shad danced the opening dance with Miss Elisir, the owner of this ship, and then Sister Dorothy, and then Aunt Carina. I think Shad probably doesn't have time in the short term, Iluna, Emilia, is there anyone willing to dance with me? This is a dance party, we can't just stand here all the time, right?"
Although Shad was the only male at the dance party, the girls would also find some fun for themselves. In addition to dancing with friends or strangers, Shad noticed that Miss Bell organized a Rhodes card game in the corner of the banquet hall, and Flora had been standing by the window with Dorothy to avoid everyone and whisper something.
The girls who love music joined the band to perform together. Vanessa had nothing to do and made a sand table, and played war games with Megan.
The little unicorn ran around the wall with Mia, and Shad thought that the cat probably exercised more tonight than it did in the whole winter. Of course, if he observed carefully enough, he would find that most of the time it was the cat chasing little Liana.
Everyone had a great time at the celebration party after the end of the war, but Shad originally thought that he would get a lot of hints at the party - invitations to spend a good night together tonight, but the fact is that he did not get the expected small notes or winking hints after scratching the palm of his hand while dancing.
The clock placed in the corner of the banquet hall struck twelve o'clock on time, and the people who had been playing all night gradually dispersed. Tifa and Matilda led the maids to clean up the "mess" after the banquet and arranged for people to prepare breakfast tomorrow morning. The big witches exited the banquet hall in twos and threes, and each said good night before returning to the room.
Of course, although Carina said goodbye to Xi Wei and said she was going back to have a good night's sleep, she actually slipped into Shade's room quietly after changing into pajamas.
Shade usually left the door unlocked, so the red-haired witch opened the door and walked in sideways. There were no lights on in the room, but she heard a cat meowing. After breaking into the bedroom with excitement, I discovered that although little Mia was indeed there, she was standing on the desk in the bedroom, calling to Vanessa and Dorothy who appeared here.
"You're late. Shade hasn't come back."
In the bedroom with no lights on, Miss Writer stood by the window looking at the night scene outside, while Vanessa at the desk waved to Carina.
"Dorothy" turned around and said:
"Auntie, Shade asked Dorothy to send little Mia back, and then he got off the boat. I don't know who invited him, so I want to wait here and see who doesn't come."
"That's a good idea. How about we hide in the closet and behind the curtains?"
"This shouldn't be necessary, right?"
So three minutes later, they welcomed the brisk Megan again. Carina hiding behind the door shocked Megan. After waiting for a while, the red butterflies flew in directly through the wall. Even Grace and Helen were slightly frightened by the five pairs of eyes looking at them in the room without turning on the lights:
"Isn't sir here? Who else hasn't shown up now?"
"Luvia."
There is no mistake, every song is released and the content is read one by one!
As soon as Megan finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. This was the first time someone knocked on the door tonight. So everyone in the bedroom went to the living room to open the door, and even little Mia followed them. After opening the door, they found Luvia holding a pillow and wearing a purple nightgown outside the door.
Purple eyes swept over them in the room:
"What are so many of you doing? Did Shade invite all of you?"
The fortune teller lady was a little surprised, but when she entered the door and found that Shade was not there, she immediately understood:
"Xia De was invited by someone else, right?"
"But with everyone here, he couldn't have gone to Tifa's place, right?"
The Duchess's expression immediately turned ugly, but Luvia denied her conjecture:
"I saw Tifa busy in the banquet hall just now."
"Is it Amelia? I think that girl is very excited tonight."
Dorothy guessed.
"Or Agelina?"
Lesia thought of her sister.
"Maybe sir went to visit Sister Devlin."
Hongdie sisters guessed so.
"Why can't it be our sister? Maybe Sylvia."
This is Meghan's guess, but Vanessa has a different view:
"That girl is too young. I guess it's Xiwei. She is the second one to know Shade. She should take action."
Then everyone looked at Luvia, who took out a fortune telling card from her pocket. When others asked her why she came to Shade and brought these with her, she quickly took one of them, and a light flashed through her purple eyes:
"No need to guess, the correct position is [Red Moon]. But how could it be Miss Danister?"
The girls had different expressions. No one expected this result. Seeing that everyone was a little dissatisfied, Luvia decided to announce another thing while everyone was talking:
"Speaking of it, didn't Shade say that Miss Olanode was promoted to Demigod, 'the situation is the same as Vanessa'? He and I discussed the details, and I think you are also eager to know what happened. . Want to have a slumber party? Let’s take this opportunity to talk.”
Luvia's divination was correct; Shade was indeed with Miss Danister. After the banquet, he changed his clothes and got off the boat. He originally thought that the red-haired girl was waiting for him in the forest under the boat, but when he got there, he saw no one.
After searching the area carefully, I found a series of footprints extending into the distance. But Miss Danister didn't go far. One mile away from the ship, Shade saw the girl standing on the branch of a bare tree admiring the moon.
"I am coming!"
Shade waved his hand upwards and wanted to jump up, but the red-haired girl jumped down before that. She changed out of the dress she had just attended the banquet and was now wearing an ordinary red dress. The avant-garde corset inlaid with small metal rings highlighted her figure. When she jumped off, the skirt was blown by the wind. It looks like a rose blooming on the snow.
