Chapter 1： mission failed (2/2)

He walked through the long ornate corridor, and met the father and mother of the original owner halfway.

Duke Ji Ting is a very tall and mighty middle-aged man. He has deep facial features, a firm jaw, and golden hair scrupulously combed to his head. He looks at Ji Ling's deep blue eyes and smiles. Madam Marina is slender, The face is exquisite and beautiful, and the color of the pupils should be lighter. Standing beside the tall Duke Ji Ting, he looks extraordinarily petite, and is elegant and noble in every move.

In terms of appearance, the original owner inherited the light golden hair of Duke Ji Ting, and the pupil color was more like a mother. It was a very light and translucent water blue. His appearance was more like a mother, and he had a rougher face. He is daring, with an extravagant beauty, and the arrogance and pride of a teenager make him even more dazzling.

The Duke of Ji Ting is very majestic before his subordinates, but facing his own baby boy is another face of coddling. He speaks softer than usual, and laughs: "Why come out now? You Your friends are waiting for you outside. "

Ji Ling replied nicely, "It took a while to change clothes."

Mrs. Marina stroked-touched his soft short blond hair, her voice was sweet and her eyes smiled: "Our baby is an adult today, and he will be an adult in the future. What gift do you want?"

Ji Ling showed a shy smile to her parents. Although this character is a shy outside, she has always been very obedient in front of her parents. In addition, he also had a good opinion of the Ji Tings. They were just too spoiled and neglected. No matter how others saw him, they were the ones who loved him the most and never abandoned him.

Although this scene has been experienced once, Ji Ling said sincerely: "Thank you Mom and Dad, as long as it is a gift from you, I like it."

Mrs. Marina watched her son pettingly, kissed his forehead and said, "Little-mouth is so sweet, okay, today you are the only protagonist. Mom and dad don't dare to delay your time."

Ji Ling smiled and followed her parents to the banquet hall. The door opened, and the gaze fell on him instantly.

Grand Duke Ji Ting politely expressed his welcome to everyone. Thank you for coming, and then the banquet began. Everyone gathered around to congratulate Ji Ling and send a gift that was already prepared.

Apart from some friends who have close relationship with Ji Ting and his wife, they are mainly friends of the original owner. These friends are not only friends of the original owner-but they also gave him suggestions to encourage him to deal with Ning Yu. Helper and dog leg!

For example, Ji Ling saw a gray-haired, smart-looking young man at the front. He was the youngest son of Earl Sinclair, named Rhodes, and had a good taste with the original owner. He was also a small named character in the book. .

Rhodes knows Ji Ling's shoulders and smiles. "Why did our hero come out so late?"

Ji Ling calmly tore off Rhodes's hand from his shoulder, looked around with little interest, and said casually: "There is something delayed for a while."

After seeing Ji Ting and other elders going to the inside hall, he found a place to sit down, leaning his chin lazily with one hand, and thoughtfully looked at the people in the field.

The second brush player Ji Ling decided to sneak a lazy this time. He is just an insignificant role in the original book. Only when he makes the protagonist suffer and uses his own viciousness to set off the perfection of the protagonist can he get the rare pen and ink of the author. What else does not matter, there are no restrictions.

The last time he was unfamiliar with the world and the rules of the task, and he was afraid that he would be cautious. Don't mention how tired he is, this time naturally he won't waste time and energy in useless places.

Anyway, there are people who have experience.

Ji Ling braced his chin and was absent-minded. When someone came to talk to him, he responded perfunctoryly. This is the advantage of being noble. Even if others come to please him, he can ignore him and others are afraid to get angry.

The tables in the hall were full of precious gifts. It was said that the young man from the 21st century, Ji Ling, had been scared last time. Where was he from an ordinary family who had seen such amazing treasures? Opening his eyes, he almost never exposed his ignorance, but this time he was very calm.

Vision is exercised.

Given Ji's status in the empire and his identity, it is quite normal to receive these gifts. The luxury of the imperial nobility is beyond his imagination. The nobles have a status and money power that ordinary people cannot reach, and have monopolized the important resources of the entire universe. Although these gifts are precious, they are all in the face of Ji Ting. The Ji family can bear nothing.

Ji Ling is remembering ...

There was a loud noise ahead, and the door greeted loudly, "The Duke Carlos is here!"

Ji Ling froze, then stood up in shock, and looked unexpectedly in his eyes!

In fact, at this moment, there was more than one Ji Ling. The hall was quiet for a moment, and people turned to look at the gate. Soon, various conversations began to whisper ... So no one noticed Ji Ling's abnormality, or watched I feel nothing when I arrive.

At this moment, everyone's thoughts are: How could Grand Duke Carlos come here in person? !!

The thought in Ji Ling's mind was: This is the biggest villain of the full text, the lifelong enemy of Emperor Jing Sui, the cruel, ruthless, insidious and sly, the **** duke-Grand Duke of Boss Carlos. He didn't come over in the last life!

Although the Grand Duke of Carlos and Ji's family were regarded as world friends, the original owner had to call Uncle Carlos when he saw Carlos, but Carlos and Ji Ting gradually became alienated because of different political views.

Ji Ling carefully recalled that Carlos had just arranged for his butler Anderson to send a congratulatory gift. This was considered courteous, because as Carlos, there was no need to attend such a junior banquet in person ... let alone Ji The family doesn't have such a big face yet.

He was the one who was on an equal footing with the emperor.

Although he is also a duke, Carlos is the most powerful of all the dukes. He possesses wealth that is comparable to that of the entire royal family. He holds the most important energy veins of the empire. Numerous empire nobles take the lead of their horses and make them powerful. The monstrous ... is a complete villain with Jing Sui fighting a whole book!

At the same time, Carlos is also the most dangerous person in Jiling who is unwilling to provoke.

Too late to think about it, the crowd in front of them automatically separated a road, a brown-eyed gentleman came slowly.

He has a handsome and elegant face, smiles elegantly and decently, the corners of his lips are not too much, just right, and the light brown eyes have a faint smile. He was wearing a black gown, holding a silver-black cane in his left hand, and a blue velvet box in his right hand, far away from the crowd, turning to look at Ji Ling, and the arc of the thin lips was slightly deepened.

Ji Ling suddenly met those eyes, scared to step back, but quickly suppressed the shock in her heart, came forward kindly, and said in a doubtful voice: "Uncle Carlos, why are you here?"

Ji Ting also got the news. He hurried out from the inside to greet him. He didn't get the news that Carlos would come in person in advance. Besides, Carlos hadn't ordered the housekeeper to give gifts. What does it mean to come here suddenly?

Every kind of person has his deep meaning, Ji Ting is afraid to relax his vigilance. He stood still in front of Ji Ling, and gave a hearty laugh, saying, "The dog is alive, so you can come by yourself."

Carlos shook his head with a smile, his eyes were dim, and his tone was gentle: "Xiao Ling also called me an uncle, why can't he come to his adulthood? This is a gift I prepared for him."

He raised his hand and opened the flannel box in his hand.

Ji Ling looked at this picture that had a good relationship with himself. Thinking of the things that happened in the last life, he spurned this shameless old thing with a smile on his face, but you still remember that I called you an uncle. In order to achieve my own purpose, You can send me to death without hesitation. Fortunately, I'm lucky, I won't plant it in your hands.

It's not wrong to say that you are a villain.

Although thinking in this way, Ji Ling smiled and looked at the box in Carlos's hand, revealing a look of joy to receive the gift.

A drop-shaped blue gem is placed in the center of the box. The transparent light blue has no flaws. It is like a wave of water. It changes with the angle and is different every time.

Ji Ling recognized it at once, this is the gem at the bottom of the blue sea star Fairsha Lake. Only at the bottom of the lake in Fairsha, after thousands of years of precipitation, can such a beautiful color be soaked.

Although precious, it is still an acceptable range.

Ji Ting apparently recognized it, and breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that it would be a tricky thing ... It was nothing if it was just a gemstone. He pondered Carlos's intentions and heard Carlos speak.

Carlos looked deeply at Ji Ling's eyes, his voice was low and soothing, and spread throughout the hall clearly: "The sapphire of Lake Fersha is as beautiful as your eyes. I think about it a few times and think this is the most suitable gift. So I decided to give you-Blue Starfish.

Hope you like it, my boy. "

"Thank you ... what?" Ji Ling said half-opening her mouth, eyes widening narrowly, looking at Carlos in disbelief.

Not sapphire, but blue starfish? !!

The blue starfish is a small planet with a diameter of 12,000 kilometers. Although it is not large, it is definitely not small. You must know that the Empire is in charge of countless star fields. It is difficult to count all kinds of small planets. Many planets do n’t even have names. The number is named, but the blue starfish has a very different reputation.

In this year's latest referendum, Blue Starfish has been selected as one of the top ten most beautiful planets in the universe. It is a well-known scenic spot. It has been elected as the first place everyone wants to visit for three consecutive years. Fighting for gold is a breeze, and it's hard to overstate the value of the city.

Just because the blue sea star belongs to the private property of the Duke of Carlos, and the owner who is not bad money never opens the planet to tourism development, so the blue sea star is also the most mysterious of the ten beautiful planets. Wherever I want to go, the most inaccessible place, everyone on Star Network can only rely on pictures and videos to see it.

Even a sapphire at the bottom of Fersal Lake can be sky-highed on the star network, not to mention the planet!

This gift ... may be too heavy.

Ji Ling is dead.

So when Carlos took hold of his right hand and gently dropped a kiss on the back of his hand, Ji Ling had stiffly forgot to move.

For a short while, his eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyes lifted into Carlos's deep eyes, and he shivered slightly.

Ji Ling shouted madly in his heart: [System! !! !! You give me the system, you explain to me what is going on! 2k novel reading network
