Chapter 569: The follow-up to Golden Glazed, the mood of wanting to become a force
Late autumn has entered the year, and after a colorful and hot summer, the cheerful autumn is about to come to an end, and the daylight hours are slowly decreasing.
A hundred years ago, Milan had short days and long nights.
But since the beginning of the second industrial revolution, electricity technology has blossomed in the world. The great inventor who did not talk about his character is still alive in the world. The improved filament lit up the night when there were only kerosene lamps and candle torches.
The city's lights are now brightly lit at night.
milan, city center,
This is what it looks like at the moment in a white European-style building.
The hall room, which is many times brighter than the street lights outside, has a patterned marble floor, and the walls are decorated with patterns, elegant wall lamps and valuable oil paintings.
Bright yellow mixed with white gauze are neatly tied up on both sides of the window curtains.
The stair railing with metal wooden handles extends to the second floor. The center of the steps is paved with dark red, and white cloth is spread out on all sides. There are tables with goblets and red wine on them.
Gorgeous chandeliers decorated with pearls hung down, lighting up on the not-so-high roof dome,
Different from the spacious and splendor of modern times, at the beginning of the 20th century, the halls where upper-class nobles held balls were classical and elegant.
Coming out of the luxurious carriages were elegant men wearing straight black suits and their ladies in complicated and luxurious skirts.
Moreover, many people were followed by ladies wearing their most gorgeous dresses.
Because they knew from their elders that this dance was a little special...
"Listen up, Serra, Themis, when the dance starts later, I will take you to meet that gentleman. Do you know that you should seize the opportunity to make an invitation?"
In the corner of the ball hall, beside the table with a white tablecloth hanging down, Loomis, wearing a large palace skirt decorated with layers of lace, was giving instructions to two young women in front of him who were also wearing dance skirts.
One of them is her sister and the other is her niece, both of whom attended the dance with her.
"But Aunt Loomis, I heard that there seemed to be some misunderstanding between you and that gentleman when they first met..."
The young woman named Themis asked uneasily, but Mrs. Loomis smiled slightly and said:
"You have to know that the opportunity to clarify misunderstandings in the social world is also an opportunity to come forward and strike up a conversation."
After saying this, Loomis' eyes caught sight of her old rival not far away, Mrs. Visconti, who also had two young and beautiful unmarried ladies beside her.
Noticing her gaze, Visconti smiled at her. Lumis snorted coldly, then looked at the two juniors in front of him, thought for a while and lowered his voice before saying:
"Remember, in addition to the wealthy gentleman, I learned from Mrs. Laila's party that there will also be a distinguished figure coming to this ball, and I will definitely meet and get to know that gentleman."
"So being introduced as his dance partner is the only way you can get in touch with that noble Lord. Do you understand? Listen, girls, you are very beautiful, but you also have many opponents."
Mrs. Loomis glanced at the ball hall at the moment, excluding the aristocratic gentlemen with elegant mustaches and black suits standing straight on their backs.
In addition to the aristocratic ladies chatting and laughing in their respective circles with feather fans, there were also many unengaged ladies and ladies.
"Whether you get that gentleman's wealth or be remembered by that noble Lord, it is very important to your family. Remember this."
As a countess, Loomis, who has been shrewd enough in various social situations, gently explained to them the most important aspect of this ball.
As the night went on, the dance was still going on smoothly,
In the hall, men in suits and women in palace skirts formed their own circles in twos and threes. The gentlemen told jokes humorously to please the ladies.
Milan is the silent expansion of the network resources in the upper-class aristocratic circle.
The red wine continued to collide in the goblets, and more and more people could not help but look at the night streets outside the open door while socializing, especially the ladies who had dressed themselves up most beautifully tonight.
Including the Marquise, who has been hosting the ball in the largest circle, everyone is thinking the same thing,
Why hasn’t that mysterious prince from the Far East arrived yet?
The trusted servant quietly came in from the side door of the ball hall, came to Madam Laila's side and reported something in a low voice. Madam Laila's expression was slightly startled.
This is the spy she arranged near Victoria to tell him that she didn't see anyone coming from there heading this way.
And if we don't set off at this time, considering the distance between the dance venue and Napoleon Street, even the fastest carriage will not be able to catch up with the dance.
So Mrs. Leila can only think of one possibility...
Did he not agree to the invitation?
Mrs. Laila was a little disappointed and dissatisfied, but as the initiator of the ball, she quickly concealed these emotions and explained to the servants around her:
"Go tell the band it's time for the first song."
The servant obeyed the order and went to convey the news. The band conductor at the edge of the ball hall received the order. The conductor's baton tapped the edge of the board, and soothing music slowly filled the air.
People in the hall stopped their discussion, then looked at each other and smiled, each holding their partner's hand, walked onto the central dance floor, and danced gracefully.
Isn’t that gentleman here?
Looking at the dance that had already begun, not only Loomis but also Visconti had thoughts in their hearts. The former was disappointed, while the latter was worried that he had not been able to do what fascinated her and wanted to see her again.
A person leaves things to himself.
Then the sudden and steady hum of the engine suddenly boomed from the night street outside the gate!!
Watching the black shadow Zhenyu flying into the night from the roof eaves of the hall, the gentlemen and ladies on the dance floor all stared blankly at the door, the night street leading directly to here.
On the street dimly illuminated by street lamps, two bright lights came on,
Then what comes into view is the roaring red color!
The fuel and engine burned like lightning, and the howling night wind blew Henry Paul's pure black suit jacket, and the gold-collared collar was flying in the airflow.
Having grasped the power that once allowed him to rush into any place outside Luo City, the darkness in the young man's wide-open, fiery black eyes slowly dissipated from the driver's seat, and the corners of his mouth subconsciously raised a wanton arc.
In an era when the internal combustion engine was far from mature, he drove a fiery red Ferrari roaring through the streets of Milan!
Everyone along the way looked stunned and rushed into the gates of the fountains on both sides!
The harsh sound of brakes completely suppressed the soothing music. In the rising atmosphere of the night, all the aristocratic men and women in the ball hall watched in shock as the Ferrari door rose upwards.
A tall figure in a luxurious jet black suit slowly walked down from above,
With a calm look on his face, he adjusted his messed-up tie on his wrist, wearing an expensive watch, and walked into the venue wearing the Berluti, which had only appeared in this world for ten years.
"Sir...you..."
Looking at Fangran's figure, the waiter at the door had been frightened by the roar of the Ferrari. He was stammering and speechless. He even forgot to check the invitation he accepted.
Walking into the ball hall, there is far less prosperity and splendor than the Pearl of the Night.
Fangran calmly walked into the dance hall step by step, unaware of the turmoil in other people's hearts at this moment.
"Oh my God, sister, what is that! What is that red carriage!?"
"My God, he's so handsome."
Her sister next to Loomis was constantly surprised and surprised. She pointed at the fiery red Ferrari outside the door and couldn't take her eyes away and asked,
But Loomis didn't answer, because she also had all her attention taken away, and couldn't help but imagine herself sitting there. She even began to be jealous of her unmarried sister and niece, who had such opportunities.
.
And at this moment, there are countless people in the ball hall who have the same thoughts as them.
The dark young man who was slowly walking into the ball hall attracted everyone's attention, even ignoring his appearance, which became extremely attractive in their eyes.
Looking at the ball in front of me, the top circle in Milan, Italy,
Fangran suddenly realized that he was actually doing something arrogant and inconsistent with his personality on such an occasion. He was actually a little nervous.
But...now that you have decided to do it, you must do it.
The decision to fly away from Yier echoed that night. The silent young man on the plane seemed to be saying that even if he might not be as good as Brother Si Ai or Brother Su Qun, he should at least do his best!
because...
His footsteps were calm, and the scene that was far less than the Pearl of the Night did not hinder him. He wore the expensive clothes that Meng Lang had prepared for him in the black box, and his aura was not inferior to that of any nobleman present.
Fangran walked towards the dance floor where the dancing was taking place.
"This is your opportunity, go quickly! Don't let others get the first chance!"
Seeing this scene, Loomis spoke in a low voice quickly, and Visconti on the other side did the same. Many nobles present were urging unmarried women in their families to come forward and make invitations.
But to their disappointment,
Without waiting for an invitation from any famous lady, the figure who looked more luxurious than anyone present walked onto the dance floor alone.
What is he going to do!?
Madam Laila, who was in the position of the master, was also surprised that Fangran had arrived. She also frowned and thought about what everyone was wondering.
The light-colored marble floor, black silk suit and palace skirt all matched each other, and they were swaying lightly on the dance floor. During the moment when the dance steps were intertwined, I looked at the young man who had walked into the center of the dance floor with my peripheral vision.
Bearing almost all the gazes in the hall, it seemed that I had returned to the moment when I was the only one left standing outside the Pearl of the Night.
He took a gentle breath and recalled the dance steps he had learned in Pearl of the Night. Ji Lingyan's teachings seemed to still be ringing in his ears.
'Smile, don't keep a stiff face, keep a decent smile when facing a lady.'
Smile?
He slowly exhaled, dispelling the last trace of tension, and a very shallow smile appeared on his face with lowered eyes, and then everyone saw it...
The young man from the Far East raised an extremely warm and confident smile, raised his hands to the air in front of him, and then the moment the red ribbon faintly flowed,
The chandelier was in a trance. The light brightened for a moment and divided the air. The vision flew away. In an unreasonable, abnormal and incredible way,
The water-like golden ripples spread, which was different from the light-colored and bloated palace skirts worn by women in all dances. In an active way, Fangran was slightly lost in his warm eyes that were illuminated by the lights.
He once again saw the golden colored glaze in the night pearl that night.
When I was most confused and at a loss,
It was you who came to me and opened the door to everything in the future.
So when you are in the most difficult time and need help the most,
I want to give you the best I can think of in this era.
Click...
The delicate and beautiful fairy-like girl's slender high heels stepped on the ground. Fangran held her hands with white silk gloves and gently supported her unsteady figure with a smile.
I am very stupid and usually very timid,
Except that I was once a sophomore in middle school, I have no talent or characteristics and just want to live a life without any disturbance.
Maybe I can't help you with anything,
Slightly at a loss, with a long light blond hair tied on the side, looking at the luxurious and high-end environment around her,
He only remembered that before sending Fangran off, he asked Sharon to blindfold him, put on clothes, and wait for a surprise. Ling raised her head in panic at the sudden appearance.
Then what he saw was Fangran's warm eyes smiling happily at him.
But even so....
I also want to be your strength.
Loosening the white lace gloves, at the top aristocratic ball in Milan, Italy,
In the center of the dance floor with all the nobles watching, in front of the golden fairy with hair accessories, Fangran closed his eyes, bent down, stretched out his right hand and said with a chuckle:
