Chapter 667 Sister, I'm Sorry (17)

As he spoke, he looked at Janice with cold eyes.

"Jannis, how many times have I told you that, as the daughter of the Rhodes family, you should be very clear about what our present honors are based on. Do you think you are so ostentatious?"

Janice grew up in fear of her father.

Even at this moment, seeing the old prince lose his temper, she couldn't help but feel her scalp go numb.

So he hastily apologized: "I'm sorry father, Janice knew she was wrong, so I'll go down and change my clothes."

She hurriedly pulled Lily, who was still sobbing, away.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was tense for a while.

Mei Lin caught it, and almost as soon as Janice left, she raised her glass and stood up, smiling and looking at everyone:

"Sorry everyone, I made everyone laugh, now please continue to eat, don't be restrained."

Her generosity and decency won everyone's praise, so the atmosphere in the venue returned to the excitement at the beginning.

The waiters filed in and brought new delicacies, and the aroma of the food completely washed away the previous unpleasantness.

Everyone came forward to toast the old duke one by one. After a few rounds, he was a little drunk even though he could not pour a thousand cups.

Just as the old duke was closing his eyes drowsily, the hand on the dining table was suddenly wrapped in a soft warmth.

He opened his eyes curiously and saw that the little girl who had been sitting obediently beside her was looking at him with watery blue eyes.

Then her voice full of concern came into his ears: "Grandpa, you'd better drink less, alcohol is very harmful to your health."

Mei Lin on the side frowned dissatisfiedly when she heard this.

She really wanted to remind Bai Wu that this was against the rules, but there was Resk in the middle, so she couldn't say it in the end.

The old prince was amazed by the little girl's concern, he was thinking about saying that he was still strong, and the wine was nothing.

But when he came into contact with her eyes that were clearer than jewels, he suddenly couldn't speak.

The old prince tried his best to make a kind expression and patted the little girl's hand.

"Okay, thank you Miriam, Grandpa will remember."

Looking at the sweet smile on the corner of the little girl's mouth, the old prince was glad that he changed his speech temporarily.

But Bai Wu withdrew her hand in the next second, and turned her head to look at Resk on the other side.

"Dad, you too."

Resk faltered in toasting.

Just as he frowned slightly dissatisfied, he caught a glimpse of the old Duke blowing his beard and staring at him from the corner of his eye.

That look clearly said "If you dare to scare my granddaughter, I want you to look good".

Reluctantly, Resk had no choice but to put down the cup in his hand, and tapped his chin: "I see."

Although his voice was extremely indifferent, this was already the kindest reaction of the young Duke Resk.

Most of the time, he likes to reject all obstacles to him with cold-blooded gloomy eyes.

Therefore, no matter whether it is the people of the Rhodes family or the people in the army, they are terrified of him.

Seeing that the two people who were originally serious in speech and smiles were full of joy at the moment, Ai Si on the opposite side quietly clenched her hands, and then smiled at Bai Wu as if nothing had happened.

"Millier, I heard that you brought grandpa a birthday gift when you came back this time, why don't you give it to grandpa at this time?"

Her tone was extremely gentle, as if a good sister was reminding her careless sister.

But only Bai Wu knew her intentions.

Because the original owner didn't prepare any gifts at all.

She died on the eve of being reunited with her family.

It's a pity that Ace doesn't know that she is no longer Miriam.

Miriel wasn't prepared, she was different.

But Bai Wu still made an embarrassing expression, and bit her lips lightly:
"I'm afraid that grandpa doesn't like the gift I prepared, why don't sisters take out your gift first."

Ai Si restrained her expression, and continued to gently persuade:

"Sister, you don't have to worry. Grandpa likes you so much. He will like anything you give him."

The old duke didn't expect a gift at first, after all, he was very old and hadn't seen anything.

But now that Aisi said this, he really looked forward to it.

This Miriam had impressed him several times today.

He always felt that this little girl contained unusual energy in her thin and small body.

He has always had an unusual appreciation for the strong, but this is the first time he has such an appreciation for a little girl.

Bai Wu pursed her lips, showing a troubled expression.

But after a few seconds of silence, he still nodded: "Okay, Grandpa, don't be disgusted."

The old duke touched his chin: "Don't worry girl, grandpa is not that kind of person."

After all, this girl has been living on the farm, and he doesn't expect her to really come up with something.

But Bai Wu really picked up a box from her feet.

Ace opened her eyes wide in surprise.

When did she put things at her feet?
She clearly saw that she didn't bring anything when she got off the carriage.

She even went to make sure that there was nothing on the carriage.

Of course, this box was not brought back by Bai Wu from Layton Farm, but just exchanged for points from the plane shop.

Ace wanted to gain attention by pulling and stepping on her, and of course she couldn't let her do so.

Under everyone's curious eyes, Bai Wu slowly opened the mahogany box.

After seeing what was inside, the old prince's stretched neck became longer, and his gray eyebrows frowned.

"what is this?"

He swears that he has fought abroad for decades and set foot in dozens of countries, but he has never seen this thing before.

It was pink and white, like it was made of dough, and there was a symbol on it that he couldn't understand.

Bai Wu smiled and took out the things.

"Grandpa, this is Shoutao."

The moment she saw something, Aisi's face turned pale, and she stood up from the chair with a "squeak".

"how do you"

The loud sound attracted everyone's attention.

Mei Lin looked at her in surprise, and then became sullen.

"Ace."

Only then did Ais realize her impoliteness, apologized hastily, and then sat down on the chair again.

Bai Wu knew why she had such a big reaction, but she pretended to be puzzled and looked at her, with concern in her words:

"Sister, what's the matter with you?"

Ai Si's expression was a bit complicated, but then she smiled and looked at Bai Wu calmly.

"Sister, did you make a mistake? What you took... seems to be a gift from me."

As soon as these words came out, everyone around opened their lips in surprise.

Taking the wrong gift is a small matter, but it is a big problem if you steal something intentionally.

You must know that the Rhodes family has always valued integrity the most.

Therefore, Mei Lin turned her face completely cold and looked at Bai Wu.

"Miriel, what's going on?"
