Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 27 Cocktail Party (Part 2)

If there is one thing that can completely defeat a perfect plan, it is accident.

Although he had made repeated preparations in advance, and even made preparations for the plan to be revealed, Xiuyi never thought that the problem would come from himself.

Huo Ding and Huo Ding were mainly responsible for making the plan, and most of the time, everyone thought Huo Ding was the most likely to bump into an acquaintance, so Huo Yi changed his face the most, and Huo Ding also made various backup plans, just in case, but when an accident happened, it was not Huo Ding who went wrong.

When Christine walked into the venue, everyone was attracted by Christine's beauty. This magnificent widow will always attract the attention of a large number of men no matter where she goes.

When Christine looked at Xiu Yi with a momentary loss of focus and panic, Xiu Yi knew that something was wrong, but the next moment, to Xiu Yi's surprise, Christine immediately groaned and made a movement of twisting her foot.

This action immediately attracted everyone's attention to her plump calves exposed after lifting the skirt.

"Are you alright, ma'am," Earl Brooks asked with concern.

"Oh, it's okay, it's just a twist," Christine replied with an apologetic smile.

Consciously or unintentionally, her eyes glanced at Xiu Yi again.

That's right, it was him, it was him, Christine would never forget that Christmas Eve, that boy with a devilish smile, killed dozens of warriors, and finally killed the sixth-level archmage Ablit like a god descending.

This terrifying guy actually appeared in front of him again now, and came to Royue City.

Xiu Yi met Christine's eyes, and Christine noticed a mysterious smile on Xiu Yi's face. He gently raised the index finger of his right hand and made a gorgeous throat-cutting movement on his neck.

Christine's heart trembled, and she knew that it was a warning from the other party.

Seeing that the other party had already understood what she meant, Xiu Yi breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

While everyone was saying hello to Earl Brooks, he took a few steps back and came to Hou Ding's side: "There is trouble,"

"What's the matter?" Huo Ding asked in a low voice.

"Christine, that woman, she's seen me,"

"Damn," Houlding growled angrily.

Xiu Yi said coldly: "I have already warned her that she will not pose a threat to our plan for the time being,"

"Put her in order, or cancel the plan immediately,"

"I know, you take Lilith away immediately and wait for my signal...inform everyone and get ready to retreat,"

"how about you,"

"Don't worry, no one can catch Hugh Iglesel." Huey looked at Christine who was not far away, and said coldly, "I want to have a good talk with that woman,"

Huo Ding took Lilith and quickly left the meeting place. The first step of the plan has been completed, and there is no need to stay for the time being. As for Christine, it is up to Xiu Yi himself.

Fortunately for Xiuyi, when the Countess came this time, the surroundings were much cleaner. He did not see those familiar faces who had appeared in the Lanya Theater before. There was no one else around the Countess except Earl Brooks, the hotel manager and some servants.

He didn't know that after he left, the countess used an "impossible task" to dismiss all the noble youths who had bad intentions for her.

But now, the mission target was standing in front of the countess.

At this moment, the Earl Brooks, who was purchasing from the empire, was leading Christine to greet those family representatives and businessmen one by one.

"Viscount Latour, hello,"

"It is an honor to meet you, beautiful lady,"

"Mr. Dodge, hello,"

"On behalf of Dodge \u0026 Co., I extend my warmest regards to Madam,"

One by one, they greeted each other. When Earl Brooks and Christine came to Xiu Yi, Mr. Bradstreet, the clerk's adjutant of Royo City, introduced them: "This is the heir of the Dardanelle family, Sisser Dardanelle. They are here this time, and they are planning to make a big purchase of alchemy materials. Oh, yes, Master Dardanelle is an outstanding alchemist himself."

This introduction made the Earl Brooks a little unhappy, so he just raised his chin arrogantly to Xiu Yi and said nothing, but he didn't expect that Christine beside him would stretch out her beautiful right hand: "Sither Darnell, it's a pleasure to meet you,"

Xiuyi immediately took a step forward, held Christine's hand and kissed gently: "It's an honor to meet you, Mrs. Christine,"

Christine withdrew her hand and said nonchalantly, "You are an alchemist. I never thought there would be such a young alchemist."

A young nobleman immediately said: "Mrs. Christine, isn't there an alchemist in the empire who is also a young man? I remember you have seen him before."

"You mean Hugh Iglesne, yes, I've seen it," Christine said calmly.

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of many people: "Madam has seen Hugh Iglesel,"

"Yes, that was a few months ago. Oh, my God, that was a bloody night. I watched Hugh Igles kill Master Ablit with my own eyes. A few drops of his blood even splashed on me and stained one of my favorite dresses," the Countess complained. "I hope I will never see that man again. No, he is not a human being. He is a devil. Compared with him, Master Dardanelle is simply an angel."

Xiuyi's heart was full of appreciation. What Huo Ding said was right. Women are simply born actors, and their expressions when they lie are extremely realistic.

Christine's words completely relieved a group of people including Viscount Ladur, Director Dodge, and Bradstreet. Although the clerk's adjutant has confirmed that Sissard Daniel cannot be Hugh Igleser, every time they think of that terrible name, they will still have an inexplicable sense of fear for the teenagers around them.

Xiu Yi took the opportunity to bow and said, "Thank you very much for your compliment, Mrs. Christine, I wonder if I may have the honor to invite you to dance with me after a while,"

Christine covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled lightly, "It's my wish to dance with a cute boy like you."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.

Dancing at a reception is a common occurrence in the upper social circle.

As a reception, it was actually a meeting to promote feelings before the start of the trade conference. It was even more common to get to know each other and make an appointment to dance together. A woman like Christine couldn't be vacant every time.

But today, she is destined to belong to Xiu Yi only.

After Christine danced the opening dance with her host, Earl Brooks, Huey stepped forward and politely made an invitation gesture: "Mrs. Christine, I implore you to dance with me,"

"Siserda Daniel, I'm glad to accept your invitation." The noble countess stretched out her beautiful left hand, and Xiuyi took a step forward, holding her hand into the dance floor. This value made everyone mad with jealousy.

They danced the imperial court round which is popular nowadays. Surprisingly, this dance form first originated in the countryside. Because of its unique dance form and passionate dancing posture, it was quickly welcomed by the noble ladies, and after some dancers changed, it finally formed a court dance. The music it uses is also relatively relaxed and lively.

Of course, it also aroused strong opposition from conservatives, claiming that "this is the dance of the ****," but in the end the trend of the times suppressed all conservative forces and silenced them.

At this moment when the music sounded, Huey made a dancing gesture towards Christine, and he put his arms around Christine's waist.

"Hugh Iglesne, I really didn't expect you to dare to appear here," Christine said seriously in a low voice.

"I didn't expect that the world is so big, and I would have the opportunity to meet my wife again. This is really exciting. Can you tell me how you recognized me? I thought my disguise was good enough, but your appearance seriously destroyed my self-confidence,"

Dancing to the melodious music, the lady's graceful body was spun on the dance floor led by Xiu Yi: "It is indeed an excellent disguise. In fact, I didn't recognize you at first sight. I just think you look like that person... remember to take off your ring next time,"

"... Ma'am, your observation skills are really careful,"

"Women are naturally sensitive to all adornments, such ugly and tasteless adornments, how could I forget,"

"Thank you for your evaluation and your artist's vision," Huey threw Christine out casually, and Christine spun in a circle to distance herself from Huey, and then Huey pulled her hand back, pulling Christine back into her arms, and performed a dynamic and intimate dance move, which aroused applause from the audience.

Lying in Xiuyi's arms, Christine glanced at Xiuyi with winking eyes: "All the hounds in the country are looking for you, but you ran into the circle where the nobles gathered again. I must say that you are really brave."

Xiu Yi smiled and said, "It's less than one ten-thousandth of Madam's. Not every woman dares to dance with me after knowing who I am,"

Christine's body spun wonderfully in Xiuyi's arms, and then fell towards the empty place behind. Xiuyi stepped forward quickly, supported Christine's back with one arm from behind, and made a perfect lift.

Gently lifting Christine, Xiu Yi suddenly threw her into the air, and caught her firmly amidst the exclamation of the crowd.

He saw a gleam of excitement on Christine's face.

"I didn't expect that even dancing with Hugh Igles would be so exciting," she said with a coquettish smile.

"You can say my name a little louder," Huey frowned.

"Do you think I dare not?"

"Call if you are not afraid of blood flowing into rivers,"

"If you are not afraid of the failure of the plan, you can kill it," Christine said without showing any weakness.

"You know what I have planned,"

Christine didn't answer him, she quickly stood up from Huey's arms.

Exchange partners.

A noble lady came to Xiu Yi's side, and Christine danced with another nobleman. Xiu Yi could even see her lying on each other's shoulders, giggling and talking.

This woman is stimulating herself on purpose.

She is so brave.

The gazes of the two people met each other on the rapidly spinning dance floor, sparking countless sparks.

The dance partner changed back, and Christine returned to Huey's side.

"You are much braver than I imagined. You are not afraid that I misunderstood that you were exposing me and did it suddenly," Xiu said with a smile.

"My husband has been dead for several years, and people are staring at my property every day, trying to eat me up. Do you think I am standing here with my face and luck? If you can't even pass this test, Hugh Igleser, you'd better find a place where no one is hiding."

"Dances with wolves is a very dangerous thing, ma'am, and I still want you to call me Sisther Darnell,"

"Walking around the cliffs and the dark abyss, doesn't it make you happy, and I just want to call you Hugh Igles, Hugh Igles, Hugh Igles..."

Christine called Xiu Yi's name continuously, giggling.

Huey lifted Christine's right hand into the air, and Christine's body spun in situ with his pull, this action forced Christine to stop crying.

Xiuyi took Christine's hand and turned her around more than ten times in a row before stopping.

When the spinning top ended, Christine staggered and fell into Xiuyi's arms. She glared at him with resentful eyes: "Is this your revenge?"

"No, just to let you experience the exhaustion behind the stimulation," Huey replied coldly, and Huey's hand supported Christine's lower back: "This hand can make you dance the most charming dance, or it can break your spine in two."

Christine bit her lower lip tightly: "You don't want to threaten me,"

"Maybe it's not just a threat," Xiu Yi exerted a little force on his right hand.

Christine couldn't bear the pain, and quickly made a gorgeous kick. A beautiful right foot hooked Xiu Yi's body from behind, and pressed herself tightly against his body. She whispered in Xiu Yi's ear: "I want to have a good talk with you,"

Xiuyi took a big step forward, supported her body and fell down, Christine turned her back to the sky, her arms were thrown back, her body was completely fixed by wrapping Xiuyi's legs, and Xiuyi's head was almost completely placed on Christine's chest, and the two made an extremely ambiguous dance move.

This action made all the nobles commotion.

Xiuyi could even hear some noble ladies complaining:

"That nasty little bitch, she's always so coquettish and full of energy,"

"It's like, look, those men are almost crazy about her,"

"Oh, and that boy is no good either,"

Xiu Yi smiled slightly: "Your reputation is not good,"

"Jealousy is a hothouse for rumors," says Christine, who doesn't care.

"Well said, what do you want to talk about,"

Xiuyi straightened Christine's leaning body again, and Christine put down her right leg, and continued to dance with Xiuyi while replying: "Just now, I have confirmed to everyone that you are not Xiu Yiglaer, you owe me a favor,"

"Look, has the conversation entered the rhythm of warmth? Just now they were threatening each other,"

"Maybe they are afraid of each other," Christine put her body infinitely close to Xiu Yi's body, wrapped her arms around his neck, and her posture was full of ambiguity: "You fear me, I fear you, but they hide their true emotions from each other,"

"We're the best pair of actors," Huey affirmed Kristin's statement in an offbeat way.

Yes, each other is afraid of each other and wary of each other, but at the same time they choose to keep their worries in their hearts, and use smiles and strong words to suppress each other.

It is not surprising that Huey can do this. What is surprising is that Christine can also do this. I have to say that this woman not only has beauty and wealth, but also has extraordinary courage.

This made her not lose the slightest bit in the confrontation with Xiu Yi. The two grasped each other's weaknesses, tested each other, and threatened each other.

Who would have thought that in this affectionate, coquettish, and extremely ambiguous duet dance, they had already tested each other many times with words and actions. Perhaps if they were not careful for a moment, the reception would be littered with dead bodies, and Xiu Yi's plan would go bankrupt from then on.

Neither Xiuyi nor Christine wanted such a situation to happen, so they restrained each other, tested each other, and made some concessions to each other.

The music gradually stopped and the dance ended.

Christine came down from the dance floor, shook the small goose feather fan a few times, and sighed like she was talking to herself: "Oh, it's too hot to dance, and I don't want to dance anymore, Master Dardanelle, are you interested in going for a walk with me on the terrace?"

"I'm happy to accompany you, but Ma'am, you'd better wear another coat, so as not to get sick from the cold," Huey replied politely.

The onlookers once again cast jealous and envious eyes,
