Outright Favoritism

Chapter 758

For a long time, Yun Li gathered his spirit, pretending to be easy to tease, "so afraid of my accident?"

"Well, I'm afraid."

Li Qiao's magnanimous makes his throat full of unspeakable acerbity.

Three years ago, if it had not been for Xiao Yehui, she would not have walked away from the border.

If she doesn't go, there may be infinite possibilities in the future.

Now, he has no chance to fight with Li Qiao.

What he can do for her is to try his best in the contest between her and Xiao Yehui!

Cloud Li don't open a face, eye socket dye blood silk, "son, do you know I stay here can provide you with how much inside story?"? The cause of Xiao Yehui's mother's death, the relationship between Xiao's brothers, and even I found out that all the servants in this manor were dismissed decades ago. You... "

"I don't need it." Li Qiao calmly gives the answer. She looks at Yun Li's dyed white hair and says, "your safety is more important."

Such Li Qiao, cloud Li can't say to refuse after all.

With a long sigh of relief and a self mocking smile, he said, "you are really not afraid to attack my self-esteem at all. Are you so sure that I will be exposed?"

Li Qiao hears the compromise in Yun Li's words, and her face softens a little. "I just can't trust the Xiao family."

Yun Li lowered his head, lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and asked, "it's OK to go with you, but how did you get in?"

"Invited." Li Qiao slowly stood up, "change clothes, go to the front of the castle, find Marquis Lawrence's entourage."

Yunli smoked and said clearly, "no wonder I didn't see your name in the banquet list. It turns out that it's Marquis Lawrence."

Li Qiao didn't stay long. She gave Yun Li the brooch and the communication device hidden on her shoulder belt, and then asked her to leave the stone house of the stable first.

Yunli stood near the grating window, watching her figure into the night, looking down at the objects in his palm, shaking his head and laughing.

His stubbornness and persistence are still so vulnerable in front of her.

....

Li Qiao returned to the castle courtyard along the original road, only 20 minutes before and after, which was more smooth than she imagined, and even gave her the illusion of being too smooth.

She repressed her doubts and reappeared in the courtyard. At a glance, she saw the figure of Shang Yu.

Li Qiao walked by with her skirt. Under the yellow light curtain, the man's cold look became soft. She pulled her arm and raised her head slightly: "have you found it?"

Oh, he found out.

Li Qiao nodded calmly, "he will go with us tonight."

Shang Yu touched her cool wrist, got up, took off her suit and put it on her shoulder, "let's go."

With five minutes to go before the banquet, Li Qiao returns to the castle hall, feeling vaguely that the atmosphere is not right.

Along the way, she did not see bodyguards and Cavaliers, and even the guests seemed to be less.

It was not until she entered the banquet hall that Li Qiao learned the whole story from their conversation.

It turned out that half an hour ago, someone lost valuable jewelry, and the bodyguards and Cavaliers of the manor were transferred to the front yard to help search.

The one who lost the jewels, the layman, Sylvia.

In the banquet hall, there are five long tables in the hall, with the standard noble high table dinner pattern, and the servants in two rows.

According to the hierarchy of nobles, the Marquis of Liqiao and Shangyu sits in the first row, and the opposite is Xiluo.

Gu Chen as an entourage can not enter the castle, now squatting in the front courtyard fountain Lake complaining curse.

As for Xia Siyu and others, their seats are in the fifth long table. Because they have no aristocratic status, they can only sit in the guest table.

It's a good dinner.

Except for the occasional toast, the atmosphere was peaceful.

After the Western dessert, the dinner is coming to an end.

The screen in the middle of the banquet hall was removed, so this kind of banquet naturally needs the social dance of European aristocrats.

When the melodious opening music starts, Xiao Yehui, as a guest of the opening dance, leads a foreign woman wearing a starlight flowing gauze skirt into the dance floor.

In Li Qiao's eyes, the noble dinner, which is quite boring, has some unexpected signs.

Shen Qingye said that Xiao Yehui will announce the marriage partner tonight.

And now the woman he's holding, Princess Margaret, the daughter of the second prince.

In the middle of the dance floor, Xiao Yehui looks at Princess Margaret affectionately. With the music, they dance.At this time, Xi Luo skillfully came to Li Qiao's side and said to the dance floor with a smile, "my best friend, Princess Magli."

Li Qiao was surprised. It's true... Unexpected.

At the end of the dance, Xiao and Yehui bowed and saluted, but they did not leave.

Princess Margaret took advantage of his arms and held everyone's eyes. Xiao Yehui opened the door with a warm voice. "Let me introduce to you the beautiful lady beside me. She is the daughter of Weston's two crown prince, and will be the future Duchess of Chiron, Princess Margaret."

There was an uproar.

The marriage between the Duke and the royal family is a powerful alliance.

It's no wonder that this year, the Duke of chelman's house invited guests to announce the wedding news.

The news will surely be on the front page of the British times tomorrow.

There are many people congratulating on the scene. Xiao Yehui and Princess Margaret's seemingly congenial thanks seem to be the focus of the evening.

Not long after, other nobles also entered the dance floor to dance, and Xiao yeyan's female partner was Ye Jing.

The dance floor lasted for more than an hour, approaching 8 o'clock, and everyone was invited to the castle platform of the Duke's mansion to enjoy the fireworks show of the fireworks festival.

In the dark, Li Qiao and Shang Yu leisurely ascend the revolving stairs of the platform. At the corner, a figure slowly shows up with the Cavaliers.

Li Qiao knew that she would meet each other in a narrow way. She looked at Xiao Yehui without any expression. In less than a second, she did not open her eyes.

Xiao Yehui's eyebrows and eyes were as gentle as they were at the beginning. He walked slowly, smiling, "Marquis Laurence."

Shang Yu's suit is still draped over Li Qiao, and the Windsor knot at the neckline has already been taken off. Even if she is wearing a simple black shirt, her silent aura can not be underestimated.

The man hooked thin lips, eyes deep like the sea, "Xiao childe."

It is probably impossible for Shang Yu to call the Duke and salute him as a gentleman.

Xiao Yehui was not at all rigid about this. He stood still with a negative hand and responded with a smile: "I heard that before the old Marquis died, he abdicated the Marquis's position to his nephew. It turned out that he was Mr. Shang. However... The old Marquis is a pure westerner. It seems that his lineage has no record of marriage with Chinese people. So it really surprised me that Mr. Shang could become the successor marquis. "

Shang Yu went into the bag with one hand. His deep eyes were lifted, and his lips were covered with a cold smile. "I'm flattered to surprise young master Xiao. The old Marquis must be very honored."
