I was the one who was causing the collapse of the iron.

There is no difference. It is still used to hold things. The only difference is that the vase should be more beautiful and not as shabby as a stainless steel basin sounds.

As a girl, there is no girl who doesn’t like nice clothes.

The same is true for Mei. Although she has grown very fast in this year, she is still just a girl who has just entered her twenties.

It doesn’t matter, as she has to wear a white coat every day, but if possible, the girl would definitely want to dress herself up beautifully.

Looking at Mei standing in front of the floor-length mirror, pinching the hem of her clothes, swaying left and right to look at her body, Xu Nuo also approached from behind and gently put his arms around the girl's slender waist.

"How's it going? Do you feel a lot better?"

"What do you mean I feel better? You said it as if I was in a bad mood."

Mei raised an eyebrow and slapped the man's mischievous hand away.

"Don't move your hands. We're going to the party soon. What if there are marks on your clothes?"

"As expected of Mei, after a little dressing up, she looks so pitiful."

"I am quite confident about my appearance."

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised. The girl in the mirror was wearing a dark purple evening dress, a neat high ponytail, and light makeup on her face.

The neckline of the evening dress was very low, revealing large areas of the girl's skin as white as the moon. Mei put on a black waistcoat to cover her round shoulders and slender collarbones, making the dress less revealing.

Going down, there is a pair of simple high-heeled shoes. The heels are not too high, and the binding straps are wrapped around the girl's calves in circles, leaving slight marks of sinking.

The sandal-like style reveals the toes, and you can see purple nail polish painted on the pink nails.

Overall, the carefully dressed girl exudes a noble and elegant aura, which is completely different from her usual unkempt appearance in the base.

It turns out that clothes are also very important, and it is great to change your taste occasionally.

This time I bought a lot of clothes, some of which can be worn out, but more of which cannot be worn out. Mei can try them on in the coming days.

"Hey, look at what I'm wearing."

Just as Xu Nuo was fantasizing about future fashion shows, Alicia's voice rang out, and a girl in a maid outfit walked over with a smile.

The main color of the maid outfit is white, with flower-like decorations everywhere on the neckline, front, wrists, and headdress, which seems to be very consistent with Alicia's temperament.

"Aren't you going to a party? Why are you wearing this?"

Xu Nuo spoke in a strange way, while Alicia pinched the hem of her skirt and bowed slightly towards the man in a very standard posture.

"Because I have to serve dishes, this is work attire!"

"She said she didn't want to attract too much attention. If she dressed up, she would definitely attract all the attention at the party. And I was the protagonist of the party, and she didn't want to steal my limelight, so she simply kept a low profile and dressed up as a maid."

Mei curled her lips, and when she said this, she actually looked a little unconvinced.

However, after seeing the elf-like pink-haired girl in front of him, he felt that what the other party said made sense.

The maid outfit is so attractive already. God knows how much more beautiful she would be if she were to dress up.

"You can tolerate this, this is considered riding on your face."

"Of course, Sister Mei is also very beautiful, but she is still a little bit behind me, just a little bit."

Alicia turned around with a smile, then raised her hand and pinched her fingers slightly.

"You are such a narcissistic girl, there is really no hope for you."

"I'm just stating the facts, why are you being narcissistic? Doesn't God like the way I'm dressed?"

Moving a little closer to Xu Nuo, Alicia's body leaned forward slightly, and her soft and plump breasts piled on the man's arm, giving him a heavy, squeezing feeling.

At first glance, Alicia's maid outfit seems quite formal. The skirt is very long, and even the shoulders are not exposed.

But upon closer inspection, something seemed to be wrong. There were two strange gaps on the sides of the waist, directly exposing the skin on the lower abdomen.

Moreover, these two openings make it very convenient to occupy the high ground with both hands.

Xu Nuo also tried it very sincerely, and immediately the girl who was still teasing him shivered all over.

"Wow...wait a minute, Lord God, if you keep doing this, your clothes will get ruined!"

"Then what are the two openings here for? Aren't they specifically for serving me, the master?"

"It's slim-fitting. Although I found it from Dr. Mobius's closet, it's definitely a proper maid outfit."

Now Xu Nuo reacted and said why the clothes looked so familiar, it turned out to be Mobius's. That could only mean that the clothes were not serious at all.

"You'd better wear a small shirt inside to protect your belly so that no one can see the problem."

See the problem, what problem?

Alicia was a little confused, and Mei came over at some point and held the girl's shoulders.

"Of course it's because I noticed you've gained weight."

Hey...hey hey hey?

Just when she was about to say that she hadn't gained weight, the clever Alicia soon realized what this gaining weight meant.

"Wait, wait, let's calculate the time. We have to leave, otherwise we might not be able to make it to the start of the party!"

"It's okay, it will be quick, just bear with it."

"Wait a minute, what are you doing? Why is Sister Mei holding me down?"

"I'm a little worried. When we get to the banquet venue, Xu Nuo will do something bad. Then he told me that if I'm worried, I can use Alicia before I leave."

"Wait a minute, what do you mean by use it first? You're talking like Ellie is a rag!"

"Stop talking nonsense. I've got her. I promise you can go ahead. Fill up the gas tank before you leave."

"Hey, wait, how can you be like this, uh...why are you bullying me again? Sister Blanca, help me!"

In the next room, Blanca seemed a little uneasy when she noticed Grace's gaze on her face.

The silence lasted for a moment. Little Grayxiu raised her hand and touched her mother's head, then spoke very sensibly.

"Dad, Sister Ellie, and Sister Mei are changing their clothes. It will probably take some time. How about we leave first?"

"Oh... ah, well, okay."

Blanca was confused for a moment, then nodded obediently, and walked out of the base, held by her daughter's hand.

Looking at Grayshu who was walking in front of her and holding her hand tightly, Blanca's eyes became more confused.

Why do I suddenly... feel something is not right?

Chapter 370 Happiness

Lying in the stretched limousine, Alicia had a look of despair on her face.

I originally wanted to have a big meal, but now my stomach is full and I can’t eat anything.

Grayshut, who was sitting next to her, poked Alicia's belly curiously, blinked her eyes, and spoke innocently.

"Sister Ai Li, have you gained weight?"

Alicia shuddered and almost thought it was Mobius who spoke. After all, she was the only one who said "Alicia, you've gained weight" every day.

"No, how can a beautiful girl become fat? If you don't know, please don't say anything. And calling someone fat is also impolite."

He raised his hand and pinched the girl's cheek, the chubby cheek felt great.

The latter just blinked slightly, still with a silly expression.

"Gray is so cute, come here and let Sister Ellie hug you."

"Isn't it cute? How about Ai Li give birth to one too?"

Xu Nuo also came over, and the man's palm fell on the girl's lower abdomen, and then applied slight pressure.

"Wu...wait, don't..."

In fact, Xu Nuo didn't use much strength, but it did give Alicia a feeling like an electric shock.

The girl couldn't even control her tone. She grabbed the man's arm pitifully and stared at him with tearful eyes.

He originally wanted to say a few teasing words, but when he saw Gray Xiuzhen staring at him with curiosity in his eyes, the words on his lips were swallowed back by the man.

Being absurd in private can be a little fun between husband and wife, but in front of the children, it is better to be a little more serious and set a good example.

"It's okay. Your sister Ellie has a stomachache. I can rub it for her. Or Gray Xiu, can you rub it for her?"

"Okay, I'll help Sister Ellie."

Little Grayshu nodded, and then began to massage Alicia seriously.

"Woo, Gray is such a sensible and good baby. Sister Ellie is so happy."

Alicia breathed a sigh of relief. Grayshu's strength certainly wouldn't make her feel uncomfortable. After all, she was now a powerful warrior who could fight the Herrscher head-on.

After a while, the car gradually slowed down. The party was held in a hotel on the busiest street in the city, and Fire Moth had booked the entire hotel.

Looking at the hotel entrance with bright lights, red carpet, unnamed luxury cars driving one after another, and beauties in luxurious dresses, Mei couldn't help but have some stress reaction.

After all, the scientific exchange meeting I attended had a similar atmosphere.

"Too high profile. Aren't we a mysterious organization? We are still unknown even after the collapse. How can we be a savior organization? We live in debauchery and extravagance every day. The fighting spirit and blood of young people have been worn away."

"That was the idea of ​​the representatives of those countries. Most of them wanted to let the people know about the existence of Honkai. And most of the people sent in by those countries were not honest. Dr. Mobius decided to make the banquet bigger and make you the focus of the whole event."

"The problem is, I, the center of attention, don't even have an achievement to show off. How can I be the center of attention? I won't even know how to introduce myself when the time comes."

Mei pursed her lips and looked a little anxious.

"What do you think those newcomers can achieve? They just cleaned up some dead soldiers and weak Honkai beasts. Don't feel any psychological pressure. You should know that you are the director of the First Research Institute now, and all those living rooms of Dr. Mobius belong to you."

Alicia could more or less understand some of Mei's thoughts, and she patted her on the shoulder to cheer the woman up.

"Aren't you a young person too? And you can't say that. Why do people work so hard to save the world? On a larger scale, it's for a better world. On a smaller scale, isn't it for their own better future life? Why do some people want everyone to know about Honkai? So that they can become heroes against Honkai. And some people don't even know if they have a future, so they should enjoy themselves now while they can."

Xu Nuo saw it very clearly. The casualties of the Fire Moths have always been high. Even in the Fourth Herrscher annihilation battle not long ago, they paid a heavy price.

Those representatives from various countries may have different thoughts, but they are indeed prepared to sacrifice in the battle.

You get what you put in, which is a fair thing in itself.

"You have a lot of crooked ideas..."

Mei always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Xu Nuo's words, but after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't think of any problem.

Without dwelling on this anymore, the group walked into the banquet venue one after another.

Alicia is now considered a popular star in the organization. As soon as she entered the venue, she was surrounded by a group of little fans.

Blanca also chatted with some old friends whom she hadn't seen for a long time. Looking at Grace who was following Blanca, everyone seemed very surprised and asked her when she got married and who her husband was.

Blanca felt a little embarrassed when asked, and looked in the direction of Xu Nuo from time to time, wondering whether she should give up the man in some areas.

As for Mei and Xu Nuo, they seemed particularly idle because no one knew them at all.

"I'm going to help Blanca out. Are you okay on your own?"

"It's okay, go ahead. This is what you should do."

On the other hand, Blanca was completely regarded as a divorced single mother with a child. Just when she was at a loss for words and didn't know how to explain it, Xu Nuo came to her.

"Everyone, it seems like you and my wife are having a great time chatting. Can I listen to what you are talking about?"

Putting his arm around Blanca's shoulders, Xu Nuo looked at the people in front of him and spoke with a smile.

Blanca couldn't help but look up, looking at the handsome profile of the man in front of her with an obsessed look. Just such a simple action made her feel extremely happy and sweet in her heart.

Friends who originally thought that Blanca had suffered in the past few years were all stunned, and then one of the women looked at the expression on her face and spoke with great envy.

"Just look at Blanca's eyes and you'll know. She must be very happy now. We don't need to worry about her."

Chapter 371 Honoring Ceremony

The lights, wine, and women were all out of this extravagant and decadent life. Mei didn't know why, but she felt that she was particularly uncomfortable with the scene before her.

Looking around, everyone had something to do, except her.

It would be nice if it could always be like this, but it's a pity that she is the protagonist of today's banquet.

Mei couldn't help but feel a headache when she thought that she might have to stand in the middle of the meeting room and say some weird things.

Never mind, let’s talk about it later. Now…
