America is in control

Chapter 222 No more tacit understanding and weird rituals
(The previous article has been modified. I feel that the code is not appropriate when selecting the 'guest'. I will move it to when the two of them dance.)
Seeing Meredith suddenly leaning into his ear and saying the code, Liu Jiang raised the corner of his mouth, deliberately changed his tone, and replied angrily.

"Yes, the noble Lady Anna Karenina!"

After the code was confirmed to be correct, Meredith breathed in the scent, and she felt completely relieved.

The doubts in her heart were gone, and the pent-up energy was released. Her body suddenly softened, her dance steps swayed, and she almost leaned on Liu Jiang.

Sensing the abnormality of the other party, General Liu reacted subconsciously. His big hands that hugged the other party's thin waist reached down, and he instantly supported Meredith's body.

At this moment, the distance between the two people is infinitely close to zero, and they can almost breathe each other.

The strong scent of male hormones from Liu Jiang's body lingered in Meredith's nose, causing her to take a deep breath unconsciously.

The smell is intoxicating!
After shaking her head slightly, Meredith finally came back to her senses. After noticing something strange about herself, she twisted her body uneasily.

"Move your hands away! Mind yourself!"

Meredith scolded the other person in a very low voice.

General Liu was stunned and snorted in his heart.

TNNGTD! I'm not worried about you silly girl getting into trouble, so I can turn the tide and help the building from falling.

Why do you, this little girl, bite Lu Dongbin like a dog and don't know a good person's heart?

Liu Jiang couldn't help but feel a little angry, and just thought about using his big hands to give the opponent a hard blow.

In the flash of lightning, he forcibly stopped his impulsive move.

There will be a second round of selection later, and I can't annoy the other party now.

If the other party doesn't choose you later, wouldn't you just draw water from a bamboo basket and get nothing?

The meat that reached her mouth couldn't be let go at all costs!

That’s it! That’s it! The big ship hasn't entered the port yet, so you still have to be patient!

Liu slid his hands up and back to Meredith's waist.

Meredith also took advantage of the situation and stood up straight, and the normal distance between the two of them suddenly returned.

After another round of ballroom dancing, the cheerful and melodious dance music ended, and the giant golden chandelier overhead suddenly dimmed a bit.

An ambiguous and romantic dance music sounded, and the men and women in the ball hall began to dance face-to-face.

Liu Jiang glanced around with the corner of his eye, and he found that the pairs of gold and silver masks were very close to each other at this time.

Some people even moved their hands up and down, rubbing each other, and dancing so happily!
If he and Meredith didn't follow suit and follow the crowd.

That will definitely arouse suspicion among those around you, which is not good news!

Thinking of this, he looked into Meredith's eyes, ready to test her mind with her eyes.

Meredith also noticed what was going on around her. Why did everyone suddenly start dancing together at this moment?

She was a little hesitant. On the one hand, it was because face-to-face dancing was not too serious and the movements were too bold, which she couldn't accept.

On the other hand, it's because I just distanced myself from that 'amateur', and now I get close to him, what will happen to me!

While hesitating, Meredith noticed the way the 'amateur' looked at her.

Is the other party asking for your opinion?
The eyes of this 'amateur' are very deep and charming, making people fall in love with them involuntarily.

I seemed to have seen this look somewhere, but I couldn't remember it for a while.

At this moment, Meredith felt the gold and silver masks surrounding her looking towards her.

no! I must not become an outlier in the ball hall!

Meredith gritted her teeth, put aside her complicated thoughts, and faced the 'amateur's' eyes, and took the initiative to lean over.

The warm fragrance of nephrite filled his arms, and Liu Jiang felt indescribably comfortable.

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, started the dance steps, hugged the other party, and danced close to each other.

However, General Liu's hands were quite disciplined. He did not slide up and down, but searched left and right. He was very happy for a while.

After all, Meredith had warned him before not to show his true colors at this time.

Now it’s just an appetizer, the main event will be the meal later!
The dances were danced one after another, and the dance music was changed one after another.

There was a break during this period, but General Liu and Meredith did not laugh and have fun like those gold and silver masks.

The two of them were like a pair of temporary dance partners, facing each other in silence.

The tacit understanding that existed during the opening dance disappeared under Meredith's two scoldings.

After finally surviving the outfield of the masquerade, the 'guests' wearing silver masks were taken back to the lounge by the white masks responsible for security.

Those unrelated people also left the dance hall one by one, and went back to their homes to find their mothers.

Those left behind were all members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance and newcomers who had just joined.

They each returned to their own private rooms and began to prepare for the next infield.

General Liu followed the troops back to the lounge where he had been before.

He sat down on the sofa and began to recall everything that had just happened.

Dancing with Meredith was more of a different kind of torture than a kind of enjoyment.

You can see it, you can't eat it, and you can only touch it to a limited extent. It's not very exciting at all!

After more than a dozen dances, I don’t feel physically tired, but it’s the lack of spiritual satisfaction that kills me.

I hope there won't be so many things going on in the masquerade later. The election will be finished in a hurry, and we have to do more business.

Now there's only one last step left to taste Meredith's strong drink!

The other party dared to scold her, she must be taught a lesson later.

When this big ship like me sails past, the port must be widened.

Just as Liu Jiang was thinking and imagining the scene of the meeting, the door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open.

Claire, wearing a golden queen mask, walked in wearing a white cloak and holding a black cloak in her hand.

"John, you don't need to wear your suit now, just keep your underwear."

"Put on this black cloak, and someone will come to guide you to the infield later."

"You have to hurry up. Time is running out. I have to leave right away."

Claire quickly walked up to General Liu and put the black cloak in his hand into the other man's hand.

She pulled General Liu's sleeve again, telling him to act quickly.

Spread something? Do I have to take off the suit I'm wearing? Just leave your pants on and put on a black cloak?
Is it such a big deal? The inner part of the masquerade ball waiting for you won’t be in unobstructed mode!

Almost shuddering, General Liu looked at Claire with a puzzled look.

"Claire, you haven't told me this before!"

"Does it have to be like this? Does everyone have to be like this? Or is it just the 'guests'?"

"There won't be any Impart in the masquerade later!" General Liu stared intently at Claire's eyes, trying to find any clues in her eyes.

After giggling a few times, Claire stretched out her jade hand and patted General Liu's broad chest before explaining.

"John, don't worry, the infield of the masquerade is definitely not an Impart!"

"It's just that the Colorful Mantis Alliance will hold a ceremony later, and the 'guests' selected by the new members will show off their figures."

"That's all! It's not a big deal actually. You can treat it as if you are standing in the ring."

"Stop inking! The charming and elegant Meredith is waiting for you!"

Claire slightly shrugged her shoulders a few times, and it was obvious that she was suppressing a smile.

After listening to the other party's explanation and seeing Claire's various behaviors, Liu Jiang completely came back to his senses.

Damn it! I have been tricked by the other party!
Claire seized on her weakness of peeking at Meredith and decisively adopted the sausage-slicing tactic.

Don’t tell yourself the complete masquerade process in advance and hide the key steps.

When you are fooled and the sunk costs increase dramatically, you will reveal the inside story bit by bit.

He guided himself step by step until he reached his current situation.

The other party's thoughtfulness and sophisticated methods are astonishing.

Liu Jiang's fear of Claire instantly rose to a new level.

However, the current situation is not too bad at least, and the opponent is not wrong. He can just treat it as if he is standing in the boxing ring.

A gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years. There will always be time to deal with Claire.

Now let's focus on Meredith's feast!

Thinking of this, General Liu did not respond and took action immediately.

In a few moments, he took off his suit and put on the black cloak.

Seeing this, Claire nodded with satisfaction. She felt that she had taken another step forward in taming General Liu.

After telling the other party a few more things that needed attention later, she turned around gracefully and prepared to leave the lounge on the catwalk.

"Claire, will you also choose a 'guest' later?"

General Liu asked the other party's back in a strange way.

Claire stopped and answered without looking back.

"John, I can't stand those 'guests'!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she started it again and disappeared out the door.

Liu Jiang sat on the sofa again, patiently waiting for the white mask to lead him to arrive.

At this moment, he was extremely calm, with thousands of thoughts in his mind.

Not long after, a guy in a black suit and a white mask opened the door to the lounge.

I don’t know if this white mask is the one that led me before!

"Sir, please come with me!"

The white mask made an inviting gesture, Liu Jiang stood up and followed him out of the lounge.

There was silence all the way, and the 'guests' wearing silver masks gathered again. All the 'guests' were wearing black cloaks.

Following the large troops, General Liu entered the dance hall again.

At this moment, the ball hall changed its appearance, all the lights were extinguished, and the light was actually rows of candles as thick as arms.

In the center of the ball hall stood a strange-looking sculpture. It looked somewhat similar to that sculpture. It was dark and scary.

So evil! Is it so exaggerated? This shit is not in Smecta. America’s upper class still believes in this stuff?
Liu Jiang was a little hairy and subconsciously slowed down his pace.

This scene was too sinister. To be honest, he regretted it a little.

But in this situation, you can only bite the bullet and don't show anything strange, otherwise you know what will happen later!

Wait for all the 'guests' wearing silver masks and black cloaks to enter and take their seats.

The members of the colorful Mantis Alliance wearing golden masks and white capes began to take action.

Led by the lady wearing a golden Medusa mask, all the members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance lined up.

They held candles in their hands and began to circle around the dark and strange sculpture, and they kept mumbling something.

The whole scene was so sinister that Liu Jiang's hair stood on end.

After all the members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance circled the strange black sculpture three times, they suddenly stopped.

It was the lady wearing the golden Medusa mask who made the first move.

She slowly walked up to the dark and strange sculpture, holding a white candle in one hand and gently lifting a corner of the golden Medusa mask with the other hand, revealing her somewhat pale chin.

And Medusa's next move completely shocked General Liu!
"Nonsence!"

Her throat moved, and she spat on the strange dark sculpture.

Spread something? Aren’t you members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance supposed to worship this monstrous, dark sculpture?
Why did you spit on it? This is a bit unreasonable!
Liu Jiang opened his eyes wide and watched the strange behavior of the lady wearing the golden Medusa mask without blinking.

oh! I see! This swarthy, monstrous sculpture symbolizes that thing, and by spurning it you are doing the same thing.
I don’t know if these members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance have considered this. Isn’t your saliva increasing lubrication in disguise?

You despise this, you despise it, but in the end it’s not what that dark, weird sculpture represents that can’t be separated.

Otherwise you wouldn't have found these 'guests' wearing silver masks!

Want both? Want it again? There is really no one left! When you become a bitch, you still have to build an archway. How awesome!

General Liu complained about the behavior of these Colorful Mantis Alliance members with full malice.

Led by the lady wearing the golden Medusa mask, the members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance spat at the strange black sculpture one after another.

This scene is simply unheard of and rare in the world!
Liu Jiang watched the performance of these Colorful Mantis Alliance members, pinched his thigh with his hands, and suppressed his laughter.

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he would have laughed out loud.

After finally surviving the ceremony held by the Colorful Mantis Alliance, Liu Jiang felt like his thighs were about to turn purple.

Next comes the main event, as the members of the Colorful Mantis Alliance begin the second selection of the 'guests'.

Meredith, who was wearing a golden Aphrodite mask, walked out first and slowly walked towards the 'guests' who were wearing silver masks.

Without any hesitation, she came straight to General Liu.

He grabbed the collar of the black cloak he was wearing, then quickly turned around and walked towards the strange dark sculpture.

Startled by Meredith's sudden move, Liu Jiang just wanted to react, but he suppressed it forcefully.

He followed the opponent's strength and followed step by step.
