Chapter 33 Gifts at the Dinner Party
Chapter 33 Gifts at the dinner
He Taiping has been very lucky recently, as if he was baptized by the goddess of luck and has been smooth sailing in everything. The beauty salon has only been half a month since its opening, and the money he earned is enough for him to play a prodigal son in Constantine. With the funds it is said to have mobilized from the south, more beauty salons are also planning to open, and there are even signs of developing into nearby cities.
Of course, this is not enough to be the reason why everyone is envious and even jealous. What really makes people so jealous that they curse their luck was that Prime Minister Lawrence suddenly fell ill and was unable to go out for more than ten days. Without his command, the originally timid Prime Minister's MPs were immediately disorganized. Faced with the aggressive advance of His Royal Highness, they were defeated by accident and handed over the position of the lord of Paradise City...
Therefore, fifteen days later, when the parliament announced that He Taiping had won the title of Earl and officially became the new city lord of Paradise City, hundreds of eyeballs were smashed into the venue. Many nobles opened their mouths in shock and shook their heads in disbelief. They didn't believe that the young man's luck would be so good. Is this the legendary law of victory for time travelers?
But amid the many jealous eyes, He Taiping still managed the business without any haste, and began to pack his bags and prepare to return to Falle. Princess Isabel seemed very depressed after learning the news. After failing to retain her, she could only order someone to prepare a grand dinner, hoping that her sweetheart could remember her forever.
Three days later, this dinner that many people could not forget officially began in the night. Perhaps to commemorate his first encounter with He Taiping, Isabel set the banquet in the garden where the two fought. Before the banquet officially began, the brilliant fireworks launched by fifty mages jointly showed His Royal Highness's deep friendship with the protagonist of the banquet - you should know that even the birthday celebration of Louis III was only dispatched with sixty mages.
However, in the heartbroken Isabel's opinion, the above grand ceremony was not as sincere as her tears and hugs. Because of this, He Taiping had chosen to hide in the corner from the beginning of the banquet. The princess, who wanted to take the opportunity to confess, repeatedly passed by the nearby place in the posture of a hungry beast. The shadow she cast made He Taiping feel a little creepy...
"Damn it, the person she wants to confess is not me, why should I use it as a cover for you?" Andre stood in front of He Taiping, watching the beauties chatting and laughing happily, while drinking red wine depressedly - what is strange and envious is that even though this young marquis always looks like a pervert, the gentle Mrs. Weiya never blames her, and even has a little bit of indulgence.
"Meow, why is Constance the exact opposite? Logically speaking, I am the real protagonist of time travel!" He Taiping muttered quite dissatisfiedly after trying to shrink his body. At the same time, the melodious sound of the violin has sounded on the temporary platform, which means that the new city lord who had been hiding for two hours must go on stage to express his gratitude, and this will also expose him to the fangs of the hungry beast...
"I hate speech!" He Taiping patted his chest and told himself to calm down. He Taiping suddenly rushed out of the corner, left at the speed of the wind, and rushed to the platform quickly. When Isabel discovered his trace, the man who escaped from the sky was already standing in the magic beam and started the speech with a little breath. Seeing this scene, His Royal Highness, who did not dare to come on stage to catch people, could only stamp his feet and sigh, and he could do nothing.
In contrast to her mood, He Taiping finally let go of his worries and started a speech that he had already made a draft. Unlike those old-fashioned speeches, he not only won a lot of impression points on his appearance, but also had a very humorous speech on his thanks, which occasionally caused the audience to laugh.
Fifteen minutes later, the man bowed slightly and ended his speech with the most exciting sentence: "So, welcome to visit Paradise City. If you are worried that the harvest of the autumn wind will not be big enough, you can carry a woven bag with you, or provide it for free by the City Lord's Mansion!"
After five or six seconds of stunned, the audience burst into laughter again, and the nobles stood up at the same time, applauding and applauding this unique speech. Isabel, whose eyes were shining, was even more moved. He immediately came to the front of the stage and waited for someone to hijack him when he stepped down.
He Taiping couldn't help but shivered. Of course, he didn't dare to step down. Instead, he gently slapped his high-fives to attract all the attention of the nobles and celebrities. Seeing this scene, everyone who thought he was going to start to toast was slightly stunned, and was a little confused. At the same time, Alex and the Starry Sky, who were instructed, slowly stepped onto the stage. They carried a crystal ball about half a meter in diameter, and after the mage cast the light feather technique, they hung it high on the branch...
"What is that? Is it a crystal exhibition?" Although such a huge crystal ball is extremely rare, it is not as expensive as it is priceless. Therefore, the nobles and celebrities only looked at it for a moment and whispered to guess He Taiping's intention. At the same time, Drizzt had blew out the candlelight at the banquet one by one, leaving only more than a dozen glitter candles near the platform. Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't understand the mystery.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in order to thank you for your warm hospitality over the past few days, I prepared a mysterious gift tonight!" With everyone's looking forward, He Taiping, who stood quietly with a smile, finally walked forward slowly and gently stroked the smooth surface of the crystal ball. "So please pay attention to it. This will be an unforgettable moment, and perhaps a moment that changes the history of mainland entertainment..."
The voice fell slowly, and his magic power slowly entered the crystal ball. A few seconds later, the dim crystal ball began to shine and gradually became brighter... As expected, when the illusioned font "Romeo and Juliet" appeared on the screen, a gentle noise suddenly sounded at the banquet scene. When Romeo played by Drizzt appeared, the original noise suddenly turned into amazement - it was a surprise full of incredible emotions, a bit confused and puzzled aura!
The plot gradually unfolds. Even if there is no too much fancy performing art, after more than half a year of training for Golden Moon, both Drizzt and Christine, who plays Juliet, have already made perfect in acting skills, which is quite like a famous movie star. After a moment, the ups and downs of the plot and the successful performance of the two quickly intoxicated the audience. They even forgot to be amazed, and even their breathing and heartbeat became uneven, changing only with the rhythm of the plot...
So, when Romeo and Juliet hugged each other tightly, the audience praised and smiled; when Romeo and Juliet were forced to part, the audience burst into tears... During these two hours of screening, everyone forgot where they were. They had completely devoted themselves to the plot, happy for the characters' joy and sad for the characters' sorrow.
When the plot reached its climax, most of the hundreds of nobles present cried bitterly, and the old generals who had never left a single tear on the battlefield were even crying with tears. Compared with them, more than one hundred noble ladies had already cried so hard that their sleeves were wet, and several of them fainted, which shocked their husbands to rescue while still staring at the screen reluctantly.
Two hours later, as Alex's hoarse and sad singing rang, the whole movie ended with heavy black. The whole banquet scene was silent, only silent tears slowly flowing down hundreds of faces... In a silence, a figure suddenly stood up tremblingly and applauded hard! In an instant, everyone stood up together, they applauded wildly and cheered wildly. At this moment, who still has his own aristocratic identity, who still remembers his age and gender, and everyone is so selfless, so selfless!
"Mr. He, please tell me where are these two families?" An old general grabbed He Taiping angrily, looking at that expression, as if he was planning to wipe out the two culprits. Several noble ladies followed him, nodding and echoing, and at the same time, they couldn't bear to ask whether Romeo and Juliet had the possibility of resurrection...
It took a long time to make everyone understand that what they saw was not the facts, but a drama, a drama called film and television works. After accepting this view half-believingly, the nobles and celebrities suddenly realized that the drama performance could be so exciting. They surrounded He Taiping, asked him to show it again, and were even willing to pay a certain fee.
"Everyone is joking. This performance is a gift I gave you. How can I pay for it?" He Taiping snapped his fingers gently, signaling Mu to show it on his behalf, and smiled and said, "In fact, what you see is only a small part. Because the crystal ball is too big and it is inconvenient to carry, I store most of the film and television dramas in the Paradise City. If you are interested, you can come to the Paradise..."
