She Is Not a Witch Chapter 77: Rainy Night Tea Party


   That night, Hollis’s.

   Since Miss Lacey from the Calites's family is going to visit tonight, the Hollis's family has done all kinds of preparations. Logically speaking, they should have come to apologize, but Miss Lacey sent a letter saying no If necessary, she will visit in person tonight.

   The door to the courtyard was open, and the clean and soft carpets had already been laid. Because Lorrain Hill was heard to like to be quiet, the Hollis family did not invite other guests, only their own servants and guards lined up neatly in the courtyard.

  The door of the carriage door of the lacquer night flower opened, Lorrain Hill wore a black dress rarely seen. The pure black dress and the white skin formed a sharp contrast. The black lace skirt and cuffs also added to it. This kind of strange charm, she stepped off the carriage, even the shoes were small black leather shoes, and the shoes were pure white silk stockings.

  "Miss Lacey from the Calides Chamber of Commerce is here~"

   As the attendants at the door shouted, some melodious music sounded on both sides of the courtyard. About 20 fiddlers stood on both sides of the carpet, drew the strings, and the soothing violin sounded, like butterflies flying among the leaves. .

   Lorrain Hill’s blue eyes were swept lightly, these hands were gorgeously dressed, skillful, and their faces didn’t look like locals. They should have been temporarily invited by the Hollis family. They were really interested.

   sighed slightly in his heart, the door of the Hollis's mansion opened, revealing the brightly lit lobby, and the owner, Howth, and the eldest daughter, Mei Lu, stood at the door to greet them.

   "Welcome Miss Lacey's visit, we have been waiting for a long time."

   The bald head of the Patriarch Huss led Lorrain Hill into the hall, first led him to sit down, and then patted his palms. The girls in dancing skirts entered through the side door, one line of them wearing red skirts and the other line wearing blue skirts. , Holding the long skirt, turn the skirt once every step you take, the silver patch on the skirt gleams under the light, and then another burst of music blasts, this time not only the 20 fiddlers outside the courtyard sit Next, there is a pianist and a dozen wind musicians in the hall.

   With the beat of the music, these dancers sometimes stand on tiptoes and sometimes turn their skirts to form a huge concentric circle on the dance floor of the hall. Then, as the music changes, they form a huge flower, in which the blue The color and red petals bloomed and then gathered. Finally, with the curtain call of the music, the dancers on the outermost side kneel on their backs, the middle is leaning, and the inner circle is raised arms like flower stamens.

   Lorrain Hill sits on the sofa on the steps, and in front is a coffee table with some fruits and iced juice on it.

   is indeed a relatively good dance. I am a little admired, but that's it. For her who has seen all kinds of light and shadow special effects in the age of technology and a large-scale singing and dancing party with hundreds of people moving, this is really not a surprise. But it's better to give the Hollis family a face, and she approves it slightly.

  Hollies’ Patriarch Huss seemed to be very happy, thinking that the performance he had paid for had achieved results, but Lorrain Hill simply did not show it out of restraint.

   Meilu shook her head secretly when she saw her father’s expression. For this Miss Lacey, when she first met, she thought she was unique in appearance. Later, Lacey decided on a new joint project with other chambers of commerce. She was awakened, and the subsequent assassination made her a little afraid of this beautiful eldest lady.

   I really don’t know how this Miss Lacey grew up. I have never heard of her reputation, but she is extremely skilled in business. From the recent performances of Calites, we can see that there is even a subtle transcendence. The trend of Angus's reign was not only not prosperous but declining, but rather soaring.

   can do things like business, very sophisticated experience, I have never heard of any academy that can achieve great success, more relying on talent and insight. This is also what makes Mei Lu puzzled. Besides, Lacey's skill is definitely not weak. She feels that she has at least Sequence 4? She guessed.

   kept thinking about how to face this Miss Lacey in her heart, and Meilu started to feel a pain in her head again when she saw her father's silly look that she felt good about herself.

   Hoth is indeed a good father and a good parent, but as the owner of the family, he is a little shrewd. He used to mention a few things when the owner of the family was in office. Later, after the death of his grandfather, the eldest daughter, Mei Lu, became the think tank of the family. Role.

   But after all, my daughter is a daughter. She can do only a limited amount. The power in the Chamber of Commerce has gradually been dispersed by several other uncles, showing a tendency to endure.

   "Niece Lace, your father and I were very good back then, and we often drank together. This time, it was also uncle that I didn’t manage the guard at home. I hope you don’t mind."

   My father wanted to expose it so easily. Mei Lu opened her eyes slightly, a little unbelievable. It was an assassination. The other party was almost killed. Once they got it wrong, the two would start the war again.

  "Although you had a good relationship with our Calites, it was a matter of the previous generation after all. I don’t know it very well~IndoMTL.com~ Besides, the guards of the Hellis family moved their swords in the street and let me Almost died, which caused the entire Chamber of Commerce to fall apart. Do you think such an apology is enough?"

   Sure enough, Lacey refused such an easy reconciliation because it was no different from an insult.

  "This...Lacie niece, no, Miss Lacie, then you want to..." Hoth was a little puzzled, didn't he just smile and cheerful atmosphere, why suddenly That's it.

   "My father, you are tired, so let me come." Mei Lu stood up and saluted slightly, then walked to her father's side and persuaded softly.

   Hoth is a little self-aware, knowing that his daughter is smarter, so he simply let go, saying that he is a little sleepy, and then let Meilu talk to Lacey.

  As Hoth left, only the two eldest ladies, Lacey and Meilu, remained in the huge hall. Light rain began to fall outside the house, and rain continued to drip from the eaves, hitting the marble steps. The shattered rain curtain concealed the scenery outside the house, making it a little fuzzy. Occasionally, the sea breeze blows, the rain tilts, and some float into the hall, bringing a little coolness.

   Mei Lu fiddled with the charcoal fire in the stove, and then filled Lacey's teacup with hot tea again, before sitting down and restarting the conversation.

   "I'm very sorry, Miss Lacey, what happened that day was that our family was negligent and let the guard be bought by an outsider."

   "I know." Lacey held the teacup, her hair falling on the black dress, unexpectedly affirmed.

  " So, what I want to ask is, what is the position of the Hellis family? Is it the same as in the past, standing with our Calites, or wanting to remain neutral and be independent. Or, you have already Decided to stand on our opposite side."

   Lacey’s blue transparent eyes looked straight at Mei Lu, no longer giving her room to dodge.
