Chapter 156 A Dance

The chat with Julia didn't go smoothly, and was even drier than Russell's unfamiliar dance steps.

This may be related to the fact that Russell has never had a serious relationship in his two lifetimes.

Back home on Earth, Russell's mortgage was almost paid off, but the problem with his partner had not yet been resolved, and he even thought that he might not be able to get married in this life. He never expected that when he arrived at Longmian Continent, a girl would chase him.

"When you finish building your own little castle, will you invite me to come over and take a look?"

"Can."

"Then it's settled, okay?" Although Russell's words were a bit blunt, the smile in Julia's eyes remained unabated.

She has already inquired about it. Although Russell is only the second son of the family, he has a mushroom bird.

This is an amazing magical creature. Even in her family, her father, as a Lord of the Principality and a Level 2 Phantom Beast Knight, has no elf. And Russell not only has a mushroom bird, he even has a fantasy beast that has not yet been contracted.

The future development will definitely not be bad.

Moreover, Russell was handsome and smart, and the cigar he invented was widely praised, even by his own father.

It is true that his emotional intelligence may be a bit low, and his speech may be a bit blunt and boring. But in Julia's view, Russell is at least gentle, and his life after marriage will not be much worse. He is definitely the best marriage partner.

"If there is a chance..." Russell gave an ambiguous answer.

He could understand the meaning of Julia's words, but he didn't want to meet and dance before making an agreement with Julia.

The future is too unpredictable.

This kind of agreement not only delays the other party, but also delays yourself.

Besides, the feeling Julia gave him was similar to the feeling Malena gave him, neither of which had the heart-pounding attraction.

"Okay." Julia smiled, not angry because of Russell's polite rejection.

The two of them gradually fell into silence, then gently swayed their bodies, and slowly exited the dance floor as the song ended.

Just when Russell thought it was over, Julia suddenly asked again: "Are there many black-rumped snakes in the Black-rumped Snake Manor?"

"Not really. Most of the black-rumped snakes were moved away by my father."

"I'm most afraid of snakes. It would be nice if there weren't any."

Does it matter whether you are afraid of snakes or not, and whether there are snakes in my territory? Russell wanted to ask this, but in the end he just responded with a smile: "Haha."

During intermission, the men and women returned to their seats.

The men and women who danced happily sat together and chatted enthusiastically, preparing to wait for the next dance music to start before dancing.

Russell returned to his seat and sat down, and Julia also sat next to him, seemingly still unwilling to give up.

He picked up the juice brought by the servant and took a sip: "Will you strive to become the Lord of the Principality? Many second sons of earls and barons will choose to be loyal to the Grand Duke."

"have no idea."

"Have you never considered this issue?"

"I don't usually think that far ahead, and I'm just coming of age."

"All right."

The topic is a bit awkward.

Russell looked not far away. His eldest brother, Roland, was making a lady laugh. Cousin Mel was not too generous, and he was affectionate with the daughter of a principality lord.

In fact, why didn't he want to talk nonsense, make Julia's flowers tremble, and then have a spring night in the evening, which would be worth a lot of money.

When it's over, just walk away, pat your butt, and leave. Anyway, you don't have to take any responsibility.

But he just couldn't do it.

I could only hold the juice and drink it without a sip, awkwardly staying with Julia who was silent and didn't know what she was thinking.

finally.

The music started again and it was time for another dance.

Julia glanced at Russell, who was motionless, with a trace of confusion in her eyes. Finally, she smiled sweetly and said, "Your Excellency Russell, would you like to dance again?"

"Well, I'm not very good at dancing, so forget it."

"Okay." Julia stood up and left Russell.

But just as Julia walked away, a new lady came over and greeted her warmly and directly: "Sir Russell, can you ask me to dance?"

Russell looked at the other party and gave him a six-point rating.

Although he was a little embarrassed, he still shook his head firmly: "Sorry, I drank a little too much juice, so it's not convenient for me to dance at the moment."

"It's okay." The other party twisted his hips gracefully and walked away.

Couples of men and women on the dance floor had already started dancing. Russell, who was about to quietly enjoy the dancing of others, waited until a lady came towards him.

"Hi, Mr. Russell."

"Hi."

"Would you like me to have a dance?"

"Of course." Russell stood up happily and silently gave the other party an eight-point rating in his mind. He was on par with Julia and Malena. They didn't have that stunning appearance, but their figure, temperament and face were both good.

The dance ended and Russell and the other party quickly separated.

Although the other party was very interested in him, after sensing Russell's attitude, the other party quickly gave up on this fantasy, much more simply than Julia.

Before he got the juice, Russell heard someone behind him saying in a slightly eccentric voice: "Is Mr. Russell still here? I thought you would go to the toilet after drinking too much juice, but it turns out you can still dance."

This person was the young lady whom Russell had rejected on the pretext of drinking too much juice.

Russell took a sip of juice to hide his embarrassment.

But there was nothing to distinguish.

The other party saw that Russell didn't answer, and was too embarrassed to say anything more. He turned around and walked away again in his high heels.

After being disturbed like this, Russell lost the interest to continue dancing.

No matter who invited him next, he refused directly. He just sat in his seat, drank three glasses of juice, and then really went to the bathroom.

When he came back from the bathroom, the dance was over.

The eldest brother Roland was nowhere to be seen. It was obvious that he had slipped directly into a room in the castle with a lady of honor.

The eldest cousin Sethel and his wife just left, followed by a good-looking girl. This girl was Russell's cousin, who was the same age as Russell but a month older.

"Big cousin, big cousin, Sethwei, are you going back to rest?" Russell greeted.

"Yes, are you alone?" Sethwei asked curiously, "I saw several ladies inviting you to dance."

"Just dancing."

Although they were relatives, they were really unfamiliar, so they didn't talk much. The cousins ​​said goodbye and left. They lived in the guest tower.

Russell was also about to turn around and go back to rest.

Then he saw cousin Mel appearing out of nowhere: "Russell, what's wrong with you? You didn't get anything all night."

"What about you?"

"I sent Clemmie away, her aunt is here." Mel shrugged and asked again, "You and Julia were chatting well, I saw you were talking and laughing while dancing, how come you two separated as soon as you turned around?"

"I don't have the idea of ​​getting married and having children now."

"It's just a casual affair, who asked you to get married and have children." Mel sighed.

However, seeing the seriousness in Russell's eyes, he didn't say anything more, but just sighed: "What a pure and good man, Russell, don't worry, cousin will definitely introduce you to a lady who will make your heart beat."
