Chapter 453 Merlin: I command you to dance with me
Merlin's troubles are actually very simple.
She ran into that annoying man again, the man who had once pursued her and said he loved her the most. Merlin thought at that time that he came with a sincere heart -
Even though the man wasn't that outstanding, she was still a little moved.
How precious is passionate love.
No one knew that she was almost shaken by that pursuit.
Until one day, by chance, she heard the men in the small aristocratic circle talking about her. Even just a few words were enough for Merlin to piece together everything.
The duke's only daughter, spoiled, arrogant, bad tempered, only has a pretty face and is difficult to serve, but marrying her is equivalent to marrying a duke or something like that.
Merlin was annoyed by these words. What were they thinking? Marry her and get the title? Was she a fool? Why would she give the title to someone else instead of inheriting it herself?
Annoyed by this, she recalled what her old father had said to her before.
She is old enough, so if there is someone suitable, she can give it a try.
Her old father is about to introduce a nasty man to her.
This is what bothers Merlin.
But as he was getting annoyed, he suddenly saw the butler coming to him with a fascinated look on his face, and Merlin's annoyance seemed to dissipate a lot in an instant.
"What are you looking at?" Merlin reached out and poked Jiang Jiang on the forehead. "Who told you to look at the young lady like that?"
Jiang Jiang instantly withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and quickly admitted his mistake: "I am rude."
"It's good that you know it's rude."
"But it's late at night, Miss should rest."
"Rest?" Merlin snorted, pointing at his face. "Look how long it took me to put on my makeup this afternoon. And look at this dress. How long did it take me to put it on? How long did it take me to leave the house? Do you remember?"
"I remember. It took two hours." Jiang Jiang didn't know why Merlin asked this for a moment, so she just instinctively gave her the kind of compliments she loved to hear: "Miss, you must be the most dazzling lady at the ball today."
Merlin was stunned for a moment when he was praised, and a smile could not help but appear in his eyes.
"That's right. I've been waiting for so long today to go to the ball and dance to stun everyone."
"But I didn't get to dance today. I spent four hours going back and forth for nothing. If I take my makeup off now and go to sleep—"
Merlin stood up, her skirt drooping. "The whole afternoon has been wasted."
"Then Miss, you can't stay awake all this time. If you don't rest, it will be past midnight..."
"No need to rest, Jiang Jiang, Housekeeper Jiang." She looked at Jiang Jiang, "You look pretty good."
"Can you dance ballroom?"
"By the way, you seem to be a graduate of the Federal Capital University. How could you not know how to dance?"
After saying that, Merlin raised his arm and made a dancing gesture with his arm around his shoulder.
Jiang Jiang didn't understand what she meant at once, and stood there without moving.
"Aren't you coming yet?"
"I want to dance, come here."
"This, Miss..." Jiang Jiang clenched her hands slightly, "Isn't this inappropriate?"
"I'm not discussing this with you, I'm ordering you to come here!"
He seemed unable to resist the order, or his own instructions, and walked quietly towards Merlin.
There was no music, and the two of them danced in this small space.
In this dance, Merlin is the leader. She spins with Jiang Jiang, leaning on each other, raising her hands, and spinning without considering their identities. The princess in a lavender dress and the handsome prince who is dressed a little poorly are actually a good match.
But outside the door, Duke Dais, who was called by the old butler to persuade his daughter to go to bed, saw this scene through the crack of the door and his expression changed immediately.
He kept his hand on the carved door handle for a long time without moving.
