Chapter 222 Alice’s Smile

second day Gervais woke up early in the morning.

As soon as Gervais was out of the room, a footman stopped him respectfully.

It turned out that Gervais, as Alice’s husband, certainly couldn’t dress as casually as usual. Alice had already prepared a dress for Gervais, and the servant was here to ask Gervais to change her clothes.

In the dressing room, Gervais went downstairs after changing into a dark dress that was considered this world Peak in terms of workmanship and texture.

Not to mention, putting on this brand-new dress instantly made Gervais’ image once again improved.

When Gervais came to the first floor of the castle, he found that all the servants in the castle were in a busy state, and the entire corridor of the inner castle was full of to-and-fro servants wearing new clothes. These The servants were either carrying things or passing by in a hurry, obviously preparing for tonight’s banquet, which immediately made Gervais feel the liveliness of this world castle for the first time since crossing.

Normally, as the residence of the nobles, the inner fort was always quiet and empty, and the servants did not dare to make any noise when they walked, but today there is no such thing in the inner fort. limit.

Gervais walked through the long corridor to the restaurant, and found that he still seemed to be up a little late, but the restaurant was much busier than last night, and there were almost no people absent. , Gervais looked up for a long time, and finally found Gandalf and Bart and the others. By coincidence, Bart also happened to be at the same table with Gandalf and the others today.

After having breakfast with the group, Gervais went to the Colosseum with all his bodyguards and a carriage with Gandalf and Bart and the others.

When I came to the street in the South District, this Hongye Street has changed its appearance today. All the shops on both sides of the street have been removed. Every tens of meters, there is a fully armed Soldiers, beside the soldiers even rose flags fluttering in the wind.

Gervais They were all rushing to the arena before and after the crowd. The nobles walked in the middle of the avenue on horses or in the carriage, while the commoners walked on both sides of the street.

Although many small nobles cannot attend the evening banquet, the daytime activities are held in the arena, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people to watch at the same time, so anyone can go and watch as long as they buy a ticket. .

When the entire group of Gervais came to the gate of the arena, they were quickly called by Anna’s little maid. It was Alice who deliberately left Anna here to wait for Gervais.

Under the leadership of Anna, Gervais and Gandalf and the others came to the third floor of the arena, but Gervais and the others were not sitting on the side of the arena as they were a few days ago. Instead, Anna was taken directly to the center stand of the arena.

The central stand of the arena is usually closed. It can only be opened on important festivals and with the permission of count adults.

The central stand is a design that looks like a jumping platform. It extends from the rear wall and is only a few tens of meters away from the arena. The bottom is supported by eight stone pillars that are hugged by three people. You can watch everything in the field at close range, and because the location is dozens of meters higher than the field, there is no need to worry about safety issues at all.

When Gervais and the others came to the grandstand, there were already quite a few nobles sitting here, and Alice was already sitting on the main seat in the center of the stand. There were eight people sitting in a row all around her. He was sent by the other seven count families and kings of Dukedom.

Gandalf and the others were placed in the row behind Alice, while Gervais went directly to the vacant seat next to Alice.

“Gervais, you’re here!”

When Gervais came to Alice and sat down, Alice smiled unprecedentedly at Gervais.

This ushered in all the nobles all around.

In an instant, Gervais almost drooled.

“Is this the City of Smiles? Fortunately, my cheap wife’s city is bigger than mine, otherwise I’d probably have a beacon show serf to laugh at Bomei people…”

I don’t blame Gervais for being such a pig. In fact, Gervais is usually not someone who can’t walk when he sees a woman. It’s just that Alice’s smile is too amazing and too captivating. With the appearance of aloof Goddess, the impact of this smile on Gervais was incomparable.

But of course Gervais doesn’t think that Alice is smiling at herself today because she’s suddenly handsome.

Alice’s smile should be for the people from the seven count families present. After all, Alice’s every move is under everyone’s attention. If Alice’s attitude towards Gervais is flat, then Alice will be guaranteed tomorrow. Can receive dozens of love letters.

In this world, no one cares whether Alice has a husband or not. They only care about whether there is a chance. After all, Alice is a real diamond, Ms. Perfect. If she gets it, she will definitely save thousands of years of struggle.

“Sorry, it’s a little late in the morning!”

Thoughts went back and forth in his mind, and after a while, Gervais finally came to his senses, and then answered Alice with a smile on his face. .

“How are things going today? Can I help?”

“Lina is all set, just sit here and watch!”

Hearing Gervais’s words, Alice’s heart is still slightly warm, although the smile on her face has faded, but her tone towards Gervais is still soft.

Hearing that there was no need to help herself, Gervais nodded to Alice, and then began to measure the nobles all around.

This time, all the people who came to the seven counts were the children of young people, and none of the counts came in person.

Gervais speculates that apart from the fact that the Lord of the North is unable to escape, the other counts are estimated to be because the Jones family lost the old count, so there is contempt. After all, the Jones family is also the count family. For new counts, the first-time invitations to count adults need to come in person anyway.

This has nothing to do with politeness or not, but an acknowledgement and affirmation of Alice to the Jones family, which is also the treatment that every new count should receive.

Gervais only knew two of the eight representatives present, namely Caroline and Kevin. They were both representatives of his own family, while the other young Gervais didn’t know any of them.

When Gervais was looking at these noble youths, they were also looking at Gervais. From time to time, they would whisper to the people who were familiar with them, and the most intense discussion belonged to Kevin.

Kevin’s eyes looking towards Gervais are full of jealousy at the moment. You must know that Kevin and Alice are classmates. During the few years of school in Wangdu, Alice never showed them to their male classmates. After such a smile, but now a second son of Baron, who could not even inherit the title, now has the pity of Alice.

“Kevin, is that pretty boy Gervais? He doesn’t look that good!”

A young man beside Kevin asked.

“It’s just a pretty boy with good luck!”

Kevin’s face is even more ugly. He has been pursuing Alice for so many years, but in the end, Gervais can hold the beauty. How to make him happy.

It’s like you’ve worked so hard to move bricks for a month, and then the salary is paid to someone else, that’s what Kevin thinks at the moment.

Alice chose Gervais as her husband, which not only made Kevin sad, but also made him lose face in front of his friends. In order to save some face, Kevin continued to talk to the young man beside him.

“I guess Alice chose him because it was convenient for him to meet the king’s will and then kick him out later. After all, if she chooses a good husband, Alice will divorce her husband without a valid reason and will be punished by other nobles. You’re gossiping behind your back.”

“Kevin, what you said is really reasonable, then your chances are still quite big, remember that after you succeed, you can invite me to the Fokker Manor in the capital for a night of fun! “

“Don’t talk about one night, I will invite you for ten nights, but you have to remember what I told you yesterday!!”

Kevin gnashing teeth Seeing Gervais sitting beside Alice responds to the youth.

“Don’t worry! Wrap it up on me!”
