Chapter 659: tacit cooperation (2)
His words successfully stopped Ivana, but Stanley was sure that the earl was even angrier. Others might not be able to tell, but he understood the meaning in the earl’s eyes. Even if he let Butler go at this gathering, the earl would definitely find another opportunity to take revenge on this young master Butler.
Then, the Earl suddenly appeared in a way that no one had expected. Butler, that idiotic young master, did not know how to restrain himself and continued to add fuel to the Earl’s anger.
Although Stanley didn’t understand why the Earl would care about that Asian man, few people could predict the Earl’s thoughts. He only needed to understand that since the Earl cared, he should be careful and do his best to help the Earl.
Time returned to this moment. Faced with Butler’s belittling once again, everyone’s eyes naturally focused on Si Huang, and Yi Fan was no exception.
Under everyone’s surprised gaze, Yi Fan walked towards Si Huang and stopped half a meter away from her. She stretched out her hand and said,” Hello, K. I’m glad you could come to this gathering.”
Si Huang looked at him and shook his hand. He smiled and said,” Hello, Count Jasper. Nice to meet you.”
Ivana’s smile became more elegant and gentle, and her dark blue eyes curved a few degrees, making the color of her pupils thicker, deeper, and hazy.” Queen Eliza likes your work very much. I hope you can enjoy this party.”
“Oh?” Si Huang’s eyes flashed and met Yi Fan’s focused and gentle gaze, analyzing the meaning of his words in his heart.
The two of them had already separated from each other. They were both smiling elegantly, just like the role models of gentlemen.
Eddy was like a clown who had been ignored by the two of them, which made him feel extremely embarrassed. However, Ivana’s goodwill towards Phoenix made him shocked, especially when Ivana mentioned Queen Eliza.
Could it be that Queen Eliza really liked this yellow-skinned monkey? Was that why Ivana, the Queen’s lackey, was so polite to this Asian?
Eddy guessed as he looked at Ivana and Phoenix, his lips curling into a cold smile. Oh, look, this is so suitable! A lackey under the Queen of Country Y and a pretty boy that the Queen had taken a fancy to. No wonder they liked each other!
He was afraid of Ivana, but he was not afraid of her because the Butler family was behind him. He thought that Ivana would not dare to do anything to him after saying a few harsh words.
If he had the ability, he could also use verbal abuse to return the favor. However, would Count Ivan, who had always been known as a perfect gentleman, fight back with others? For an insignificant Asian? Haha! Eddy became even more fearless.
“Perhaps you need this.” Ivana took off her gloves.
This time, even Stanley didn’t understand what Ivana meant.
Si Huang didn’t understand at first, but when she thought about it from Jasper’s perspective, she suddenly had an idea.
Right, she had seen a similar situation in that diary. Miss Jasper was a proud and competitive woman. Or should I say, as Jasper’s only heir, she had to be competitive and win. She could not lose to a man, could not be weak, and could not retreat.
Yi Fan waited quietly after saying that. She didn’t explain her words and actions, nor did she urge Si Huang.
When Si Huang reached out and took the gloves that he had taken off, Yi Fan’s eyes lit up, like a light that had suddenly lit up in the night sea, lighting up her life.
“Thank you.” Si Huang thanked him with a smile, then turned around and threw the gloves to Eddy. He raised the corners of his mouth and his eyebrows.” This time, it’s my turn to invite you.”
Eddy was surprised and angry. He didn’t expect Phoenix Si to use the same method to repay him. The white glove was about to hit his face, but Eddy caught it without thinking.
Then, he heard Si Huang say,” This time, we’re not playing a childish knight battle. Let’s play a game of red and white gloves.”
Eddy’s pupils constricted. He was going to object at first, but under Phoenix Si’s intense gaze, he became stubborn.” Are you serious?”
“Of course.” “There are so many people here as witnesses.” Si Huang said.
“It’s just a joke. There’s no need to take it so seriously. K, you’re being too petty.” Leo interrupted, jokingly pushing Phoenix Si aside.
Si Huang was unmoved. She didn’t have a good impression of this young master of the Pierce family, not to mention that he was deliberately making things difficult for her.” Oh, I’m a petty man. If you want to play, you can do it after I’m done with Mr. Butler.”
Leo didn’t expect her to be so disrespectful.” What an arrogant personality, Count Jasper. What do you think?”
Ivana still had a faint smile on her face.” Arrogance is just the willfulness of the strong. It’s a good show for trash to self-destruct. Why don’t I invite my distinguished guests to watch the ending of this show with me?”
As the main character of the gathering, he had personally spoken up, so naturally, he had received a group of people’s response. Even if there were some people who wanted to object, they would not be able to find any opportunity.
Eddy, who had accepted the glove, could not refuse the game due to the pressure from the people around him. He began to feel uneasy for some reason.
The so-called Red and White Gloves game was different from the traditional Knight Battle. The Knight Battle was a game that stopped at the critical point. The Red and White Gloves game was similar to a life and death game. The former could not hurt people, but the latter could. Therefore, compared to the Red and White Gloves game, the Knight Battle was indeed as childish as Si Huang had said.
Eddy didn’t know why things had developed into this situation. It seemed that things had unknowingly gone out of his control. He passively grabbed the heavy sword that the waiter had brought over again.
When he looked up, the dazzling young Asian man opposite him also held his silver sword again. He looked elegant and perfect.
Eddy then saw Ace, who was standing at the periphery. Ace happened to be looking at him, his bright blue eyes flashing with cold anger.
Damn it! It’s all this damn yellow-skinned monkey’s fault!
Eddy didn’t want to think about other reasons. He only turned all the unhappy emotions in his heart into anger and vented his anger on Phoenix Si.
“You will regret your actions!”
“I won’t regret anything I’ve done.” Si Huang lowered his eyes and replied indifferently.
In this life, as long as I do something, even if it’s wrong, I’ll go all the way to the end.
This time, she didn’t wait for Eddy to attack her first. Instead, she took the initiative to step forward and stab him.
That indomitable aura and dangerous attack made the surrounding people cry out in surprise, but their expressions were excited.
