"Could it be that I am the only one Alice is targeting?!"
Yu Yi felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
"Why are you coming out? Shouldn't the dance be held inside?"
"To humiliate you, of course!"
"What...."
Alice put her slender fingers to her lips, looked up and down at Yui's clothes, and showed a playful smile:
"You're really just a poor person. How dare you wear such a skirt to attend the dance? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"
“…”
Alice's words made Yuyi lose confidence.
The "aristocratic etiquette" she learned was all from street magazines or places that could be easily searched on the Internet. She had never seen what a real aristocratic ball looked like.
Hearing Alice, a genuine noble, say this, I felt a surge of unease.
Is it the wrong color?
I seem to have heard that wearing a black skirt to a banquet is not a good idea, as it is only worn at funerals.
"Then what should I wear..."
Yu Yi shyly pinched the hem of her skirt, and just when she was at a loss...
The evening breeze blew the mulberry leaves above her head, and the dim street lights illuminated Alice's clothes.
The smooth fabric is as shiny as fish scales, and the upper and lower divided style tightly wraps the girl's beautiful body curves.
The skin on her thighs, abdomen, and shoulders was completely exposed, and she wore a pair of lace sandals on her bare feet.
The most outrageous thing was that she was holding a translucent swimming ring in her hand, which formed a sharp contrast with the dignified maid beside her.
This is totally a swimsuit!
"Why are you dressed like this? Do you have the right to say that to me?!"
Yu Yi was so angry that smoke was coming out of her head. She pointed at Alice and asked loudly.
I finally made all the preparations and put on my most formal clothes to attend the ball, but the host of the ball looked so sloppy and even mocked me.
"Any questions?"
Alice blinked, looking nonchalant.
She pressed her temples, and the Saturn star-framed glasses on her face began to sparkle.
This calm look once again made Yu Yi fall into self-doubt.
Could it be that she is trying something very trendy?
I've heard before that so-called retro refers to bringing out things that were popular in the past. The most tacky things become trendy, and the most trendy things become tacky. Could it be that... is this the way aristocrats dress now?
"Dancing in a swimsuit is so weird..."
Yu Yi held her overloaded little head, her eyes rolling around.
"Ah~"
Alice suddenly realized something, and with a flicker of inspiration, she lightly touched the corner of her mouth with her little finger, revealing a smug smile.
"You don't think that when I say 'ball' I mean a bunch of people crammed into a ballroom, listening to drowsy classical music, and dancing around the house holding hands, do you?"
"No, isn't it?"
Facing Alice's ridicule, Yu Yi lowered her head embarrassedly, because that was what she really thought.
When you mention "ball", don't you think of nobles dancing ballroom dances in a magnificent hall?
"Common people are common people. Their thinking is too narrow."
Alice saw through Yu Yi's thoughts, spread her hands, and shook her head helplessly:
"How could the ball I'm hosting be something so boring?"
"So...what exactly is this 'dance' you're talking about?"
"Well~~~~"
Alice adjusted the star-shaped glasses on her face, looked up at Yu Yi, and deliberately stretched out her accent. She really enjoyed the feeling of teasing the other person.
until...
"Snapped!"
There was a burning sensation on my thigh.
"It hurts! Ellen! It's you again, what are you doing?!"
Alice jumped in pain, turned around, grabbed her maid's apron, and shook her hard.
"Miss, this."
The maid named Ellen still had an expressionless face. She raised her hand and showed it to Alice.
"This is..."
When Alice saw what was in the maid's palm, she got goosebumps all over her body as if she had been electrocuted.
It was a mosquito that had been swatted.
"Miss, if you don't go back now, you'll be sucked dry by mosquitoes."
The maid straightened her wrinkled apron and looked at the young lady standing outside the manor in her swimsuit, and gave a reminder.
"Hurry, hurry back to the manor! Hurry up!"
Alice walked back in a panic, her emerald eyes filled with fear. She kept rubbing her skin along the way, worried that she would be bitten by mosquitoes again.
"Thank you for helping me out..."
Yu Yi wanted to thank the maid, but the maid just looked at her coldly, turned around and followed Alice.
The look in his eyes at that moment was so cold that it was a little creepy.
“Crunch, crunch—”
The iron gate covered with roses and vines was slowly opened, and the magnificent manor appeared in front of Yu Yi.
It was a dreamy and gorgeous scenery like a fairy tale.
On both sides of the backyard, the bushes are like an exquisitely crafted maze, dotted with various bright colors. Under the cover of night, they exude an indescribable sense of mystery.
Yu Yi walked on the ivory-white tiles in the middle. A maid walked past her leading a white horse. The clear fountain reflected the figures of both parties as they passed by.
Gradually, Yu Yi got closer and closer to the building in the center.
It was a huge building as gorgeous as a castle, with roses covering the ivory-white walls, but it did not feel eerie at all, but rather solemn and sacred.
But what was strange was that there seemed to be noisy music coming from the back of the building, and the faint neon colors of the bright lights and feasting were faintly visible.
"So the 'dance' was held in the front yard? Then why did you ask me to meet at the back door..."
Yu Yi found that she had walked a long way in vain, and complained with puffed cheeks.
"Of course, it's to show you how wealthy my family is!"
Faced with Alice's unreasonable remarks, the veins on Yuyi's forehead were directly revealed.
She wanted to punch him directly, but this was not enough to be a "provocation", so she decided to be patient for a while.
"To actually place such a valuable item on the road..."
As you walk through the building, you're greeted by a dizzying array of expensive, fragile items.
Yuyi took every step carefully, worried that she would accidentally break one of the things and plunge Yesi into bankruptcy.
"Hahaha~ That's the common people's reaction. It's always funny no matter how many times I see it."
Alice covered her mouth and smiled, making sarcastic remarks all the way, constantly showing off her family's things, with her nose turned up high.
Soon, they finally arrived at a big door.
"Stupid and arrogant succubus, look carefully, this is a noble 'ball'!"
Alice waved her hand, ordered the maid responsible for opening the door to leave, and took the door handle on her own initiative. She looked back at Yu Yi's expression and pushed hard...
“Dong—dong—dong—”
The restless electronic music broke through the darkness.
“This, this is…”
Yu Yi stared at the scenery in front of her, completely stunned.
Flashing blue and red neon lights cut through the night, illuminating a giant swimming pool, where shallow waves swayed with hallucinogenic light.
“Ho——”
People in the swimming pool raised their beer glasses and cheered for the popular band performing on the shore. It was like a medium-sized concert.
There are many barbecues and delicious food on both sides of the swimming pool, and the top chefs and maids holding bottles of red wine are waiting on both sides.
In just a few seconds, Yu Yi recognized several faces she had seen in the news, as well as many well-known celebrities.
"This is the nobles' ball..."
Facing the bright and beautiful world outside, Yu Yi's little black dress that cannot absorb the light is like an alien that cannot fit in and can only stand in the shadows.
"What a cute child~"
"Is this the latest swimsuit?"
Two hot older sisters in bikinis walked past with cocktails in their hands. The sound of their conversation made Yu Yi blush with embarrassment.
Unexpectedly, I was "checked" by Alice as soon as I entered the scene. I felt like a fool who appeared on the beach in formal clothes, completely out of tune with others.
The ballroom dance I practiced with Yoshito is now completely useless...
"I anticipated this situation, so choose now!"
Alice pulled out a row of hangers from somewhere, with many cute swimsuits hanging on them.
What made Yuyi feel creepy was that these sizes were just the right small sizes for her.
"Did you plan all this? What other traps have you prepared?!"
Yu Yi protected her chest and took two steps back, asking with full vigilance.
"A trap? The words of fools are hard to understand..."
Alice took off her star-shaped glasses, raised her hands behind her head and tied her fluffy blonde hair. The gorgeous neon lights illuminated her delicate and beautiful body curves wrapped in her swimsuit.
"I just want you to enjoy the dance, Mi'an Yuyi...you are really rigid."
"No, you can't talk to me like that!"
"Is not it?"
Alice took a step forward, her emerald eyes fixed on the other person, and she bent down and said:
"I know very well that the black-haired orc was actually hired by you, right?"
"certainly not!"
"Only someone as noble as me would be willing to associate with a foolish and willful succubus like you."
"Foolish and willful..."
This sentence hit Yu Yi's sore spot, leaving her speechless for a moment.
Before attending the dance, he kept teaching Ye Si what to do and ordered her to practice ballroom dancing until she developed physical problems.
This kind of self is indeed "foolish and willful".
Yu Yi was somewhat relieved that Ye Si did not appear here with her, otherwise both of them would be ridiculed.
But the real thought in my heart is...
"..."
Yu Yi stared at the dazzling neon lights outside and clutched her clothes tightly around her chest.
