Chapter 69

On the return carriage, Lacey leaned against the armrest on the side of the carriage sofa and supported her cheeks with her hands. She was a little sleepy, not physically tired, but mentally sleepy. Just like she had been playing a tense and thrilling game with others online for 5 hours. Now she doesn't want to think about anything, she just wants to go back and have a good sleep.

Close her eyes, rested for a while, and then slowly recalled the scene just now. This Adley made her particularly annoyed.

The country in her previous life had a long toast culture. Even if she didn't drink much, she knew that in psychology, this was actually a test of obedience. If I toast you, you must drink it all to show obedience. Although there is no same custom in this world, Adley's behavior just now is actually a test.

As soon as he entered the venue, he was striking. However, the words seemed to be joking greatly aroused the girls' emotions, and then quickly fell down, saying that he was just a joke. As soon as this fell, the girls' moods stimulated like a roller coaster, and then quickly focused their attention on themselves.

Afterwards, he quarreled with Fujino, but he quickly broke the strangeness of the first meeting, naturally revealed his emotions and personality, reducing the vigilance of the two when they first met.

Then there was another sincere conversation, showing that he and Angus had a familiarity, providing motivation for the words of active help, which seemed less abrupt. And a person who started with a playboy suddenly became so solemn, with the contrast between the front and back, giving people a sense of true feelings of a prodigal son who turned back and was more likely to touch people.

After Lacey finally gave thanks, he toasted again, following the simple idea of ​​repaying kindness between people. The person on the other side promised to do you a big favor and toast you with a glass of wine. You should also give back the drink in the glass of wine in your heart and reason. This is a spontaneous behavior of a person who does not drink it, and it seems obvious and deliberate, indicating that you are very cautious. If you only drink part of it, it means that you are more cautious and do not believe in it.

Lacey naturally understood the intention, so she drank it all, pretended that she had no intention of scruples, and believed the promise of the Young Master Adley in front of her.

Recalling the various things at the banquet, Lacey had to sigh that Adley is really a master in love. With his emotional intelligence, there is no need to be so irresistible with Feng Nai. This is very likely that he did it on purpose. If he took all his strength, Lacey suspected that the innocent Feng Nai would be captured by him in less than three days.

Although Mei Lu talked a lot at the banquet, she was basically common scenes. She actually didn't really express her opinion from beginning to end.

Feng Nai is very simple. Adley has some plans for Lacey or Carites. Meilu is like a fog. Fenerton is concerned about new wine, focusing on making money, and not interested in others. This is the summary after the banquet.

---------------------------------

As Lacey slowly recalled in the carriage, Adley also returned to her study.

"How about it, is Miss Lacey from the Carites's family beautiful?" A young man slightly taller than Adile. He was Wick, the adopted son of the Tiscifene family, and was half of Adile's brother.

"Wick, I tell you, you will regret not going. Miss Lacey is the most beautiful person I have ever seen in my life."

"Oh? Are you more beautiful than the angel saint of the Holy Land?" Wick smiled and sat down opposite Adley.

"Indeed, I really want to marry her." Adley did not hide the desire in his eyes.

"You can't be true, you obviously decided to join forces with Anemi before, and Fukuno is also very good."

"You don't understand, Feng No is indeed a stunning person on earth, but Miss Lacey, I'm afraid I'll miss this time. It's probably thousands of years to wait for such a beautiful person to be born in the world next time."

"Okay, Adley, really can't be kidding. We have arranged everything. The alliance with Anemi is also a foregone conclusion. Now is not the time to go back on our word."

"I know that Carites must be knocked down or subdued so that Hoplane can be led by us and the organization's plans will go smoothly."

"Yes, Adrie, we, Tisciferne, have already invested too much in it and can no longer look back now. I hope you will not be deceived by beauty." Wick looked at Adrie solemnly.

"No need to remind me, I understand." Adley leaned against the sofa and rubbed his eyebrows.

"But I will apply with the organization to obtain ownership of the girl after victory." His voice was slow, but he revealed a certain determination.

After a little silence, Adley asked again.

“How did the Helis family recently?”

"They have been very low-key lately and have no big moves."

"Is that so? I always feel like they might have discovered something, but they just didn't say it."

"What if they find some traces? As long as they can't come up with definite evidence for the time being, they can't do anything about us. After a while, everything will be a foregone conclusion, and they can't move, and the wheel of the times will eventually run through everything. Is there any Helis family in the future?"

Wick said in a low voice, and there seemed to be some kind of fanatical ideal in his eyes under the candlelight.

After returning home, two days later, news of the battlefield in the north of the West Wind spread throughout Velga, and people were in panic for a while.

The west wind is the central hub of the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua. If there is civil strife, many roads will be cut off, and sea routes have become safe choices that are not affected by it. For a time, the Karites family received several times the order, and there were also many sea transportation commissions.

It happened that at this time, the three fleets of "Swordfish", "Facts Wind" and "White Bird" of the Carites Chamber of Commerce were all summoned back. In the Jingyue Strait outside Hoplane, there were huge white sails, and more than 200 ships of all sizes were parked neatly on the sea surface, rising and falling with the waves.

For a time, the Carites family's momentum reached its peak in Hoplane. Various invitations also followed, and the chambers of commerce in other places in Velga also traveled thousands of miles to send various greetings and gifts, hoping to get along with them.

As peace is broken, safe sea routes have become an inevitable choice. Both merchant ships and warships are increasing, and Carites has become the target of attention of all companies.
