600: C600 My Name Is Alice

C600 My Name Is Alice

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice the dress behind me. I accidentally stepped on it, causing me to fall down, causing me to bump into you. Are you hurt? " As she spoke, the woman started to tidy Jian Xi's skirt, and she even reached out to touch it. She was worried about Jian Xi's hands.

However, Jian Xi was not used to touching people, so she quickly dodged and stopped the woman's hand as she replied. "It's alright, I am not injured."

"That's good!" The woman smiled and looked at Jian Xi and said.

The woman's voice was very gentle, even her movements were the same. She should be a very gentle woman. Her eyes were also very kind.

"My name is Alice." Alice stretched out her hand and introduced herself to Jian Xi in a friendly manner.

Since it was already in English, Jian Xi did not want to directly say her own Mandarin name, so she smiled and reached out her hand to hold Alice's hand and said. "My name is Ciel."

"Ciel, it is very nice to meet you."

"Thank you, I'm glad to meet you too."

The two of them talked briefly, but they didn't talk about family. They only talked about their interests and hobbies.

"Oh, by the way, Ciel, how did you come to attend this fake noodles dance?" Alice asked.

Alice's question made Jian Xi slightly stunned but she could not tell her the truth and explained. "A friend brought me here and said that it was to let me experience the world."

"So that's how it is. Same as me, the same goes for me. My friend brought me here last night and lived here. You too?"

"Yes, that's right." Jian Xi's smile was somewhat stiff in response. Then, she thought of the room she had stayed in for so long.

Hubby Qu had locked her in that room for so long, but Master did not say anything. Could it be that this was hubby Qu's castle, and the fake mask ball tonight was organized by hubby Qu?

Even though Jian Xi felt that there was a reason behind it, Jian Xi still shook her head and did not believe it.

Perhaps hubby Qu borrowed the place of the master, and because he was indeed going to attend this banquet, he tied her up in this place.

Otherwise, if hubby Qu really had such a large amount of money, why would he find a person who had no power or power and even owed a huge debt to her?

"I originally wanted to find another friend. I heard that he also participated in this banquet, but I still haven't found him yet."

"So that's the case. Then I won't delay you from looking for more people. I'll just stroll around." Jian Xi said.

"It's okay. Anyway, my friend has gone somewhere." Alice stretched out her hand and grabbed Jian Xi.

"Alice, I just heard that you fell?" A tall man ran in front of Jian Xi and Alice but the other party recognized Alice at a glance and said.

"I only fell when I stepped on the skirt. I am fine." Alice said with a smile.

"Sorry, it's all my fault. I should consider this possibility." The man lowered his head and said apologetically.

"It's alright, I know you're doing this for my own good."

"Alice, since your friend is here, I will go and find my friend first." Jian Xi said softly because Jian Xi spoke very softly. That man did not notice and continued to worry about Alice.

"No, it is all my fault. If you wish, I can bring you back to the room to change your skirt to prevent you from falling again."

"No, it is okay..." As he was speaking, he heard Jian Xi's words again. "Okay, then I will go and find you later."

Before Alice could reply, Jian Xi had already quietly retreated. When Alice turned around, she could only blame Jian Xi for leaving.

"Alice, who are you talking to?"

"A new friend that I just met." Alice replied with a smile.

Jian Xi walked out of the banquet and saw that there were seats for them to sit down and rest. Jian Xi immediately forgot to hide in a corner and stood in front of the window for a long time. In addition, she had not worn high heels for a long time, so Jian Xi's legs were already tired.2

It was rare to see a sofa so Jian Xi sat down. Just now because Alice was still there, Jian Xi could not reach out and tie the mask back on. At this moment, she saw that everyone was looking at the banquet and talking to the people beside her.

Just as she was about to tie the tape, she suddenly saw a person holding a wine glass walking towards her. Jian Xi originally thought that he would change directions, but he walked over without saying anything. And... She sat on the other side of the sofa. Luckily, the sofa was quite spacious. The two of them sat on both sides of the sofa, and there was still a distance of one person's seat between them.

Jian Xi's hand, which was originally stretched out, slowly lowered. Her other hand tightly grabbed the bottom of the mask, not allowing her face to be revealed.

"Ciel, it is very nice to meet you. My name is James. I am very sorry, but I hope you can forgive me for accidentally hearing your conversation with Miss Alice just now." James said apologetically.

Jian Xi was indeed a little angry when she heard him say that. However, when she looked at his clothes and the mask on his face, Jian Xi still had some impression of him. She remembered that he was the person who helped her up just now.

"It's okay. Thank you for helping me up just now." Jian Xi responded with a faint smile. She tried her best to be proper and not sudden, and lose hubby Qu's face.

Although hubby Qu did not say it clearly, Jian Xi felt that if she did not do it well, even if the mask did not fall off, hubby Qu would still be angry. Once he was angry, she would be punished.

"Thank you!" James replied. "I just saw you reach out your hand. Do you need to call the waiter? Or do you need any help? You can tell me, I can help you."

" Thank you, not really, I just want to reach out " Jian Xi replied. It was only the first time they had met. How could Jian Xi want the other party to help her?

Actually, she also noticed that there were a lot of waiters at the banquet, and it could be seen at a glance, other than the clothes they were wearing, there was also the same mask they were wearing.

She originally thought that she could just tie them up and bring them back. But James's words... Jian Xi also thought that she could actually ask the waiter for help. Of course, if he was not around, she could reach out and tie him up. It was done in a moment.

Jian Xi looked at James, who was sitting down, and felt that it was impossible for him to leave. He seemed to be very interested in her. His eyes kept examining Jian Xi, and there was a strong interest in them.

"Cile, do you often attend this kind of banquet?"

"No!" Jian Xi replied.

Although she had attended banquets before, Jian Xi had never attended such royal banquets. She had only participated in the banquets of the companies that she had attended before, so that she would not be rude.

"Is that so? Looking at you, I thought you were the princess of some country. If you were proper and polite."
