Chapter 714: Chapter 0715: Before the Banquet Starts [First Update]
Ye Qiu’s outfit was truly rustic and tasteless, shocking the two young and beautiful maids. The women feared that Count Charley would scold them once he found out Ye Qiu was dressed this way.
"Let’s go with this set!"
These days, Ye Qiu had been wearing the suits prepared by Count Charley, and he genuinely felt uncomfortable. It wasn’t that the quality of the suits was poor, but he simply wasn’t accustomed to wearing such attire, feeling as if he were restrained.
Tonight, he had decided he didn’t want to wear those suits anymore, even though the one just now had been custom-tailored for him.
Louise, dressed in a floral crinoline gown, looked like a proud and beautiful princess. This was a vintage-style long gown, while Zhou Wenting also changed into a custom-tailored princess dress in pink, looking both young and beautiful.
Ultimately, it was because both women were naturally beautiful. Additionally, when dressed up, there was no doubt their demeanor elevated even more.
The women were waiting for Ye Qiu, as tonight Zhou Wenting definitely planned to have Ye Qiu as her male companion. Thinking of how handsome Ye Qiu looked in those suits over the past few days, she felt having Ye Qiu as her companion was truly great.
Yet, when Ye Qiu and the two young maids appeared, both were utterly shocked!
This?
Ye Qiu was actually wearing this outfit?
Wasn’t this the set he had brought with him?
Zhou Wenting wasn’t particularly phased, as she was already used to Ye Qiu’s style. However, Louise quickly spoke to the two young maids.
The two young maids knew it would be like this, but one maid said, "Viscountess Louise, Dr. Ye himself requested to dress this way. We couldn’t do anything about it!"
"Indeed, it was my own request to wear this."
Ye Qiu said.
Zhou Wenting too was somewhat puzzled by what Ye Qiu was thinking, but since he said so, Zhou Wenting didn’t harp on it any further. She wanted to be with Ye Qiu, not because of his appearance, but because his mysterious medical skills deeply attracted her.
Zhou Wenting and Louise said, Louise still asking why?
When Zhou Wenting and Louise explained that Ye Qiu always dressed like that back in his own country, Louise was still somewhat confused.
She felt that with Ye Qiu’s capabilities, he shouldn’t be wearing such clothes.
"This set of clothes was something my mother scrimped and saved to buy me during our poor days at home, so I’ve always cherished it!"
Ye Qiu said.
Hearing Ye Qiu say that, Zhou Wenting almost laughed, not sure if he was serious.
However, she wasn’t very familiar with Ye Qiu’s family background before.
Now, after Zhou Wenting translated what Ye Qiu had said, Louise listened and clearly believed it, feeling very moved. Suddenly, she viewed Ye Qiu’s outfit as different than before.
Ivan the butler was busy downstairs, but there were other butlers of various sizes in this villa, probably about four or five. Normally, just because Ivan followed Count Charley closely, he was the most important butler in this castle.
Now Ivan personally came upstairs to escort Ye Qiu and the two ladies downstairs, knowing that tonight Ye Qiu was the main character, and Count Charley was planning to introduce Ye Qiu to other distinguished guests.
After Ivan came upstairs and saw the trio, despite being somewhat surprised and puzzled by Ye Qiu’s attire, he did not ask further about it.
The official start time of the dinner was not far off.
On the ground floor, Count Charley in his Archbishop’s black robe was laughing and talking with some distinguished guests.
Before the dinner started, many upper-class individuals from France, including various elites, political figures, and distinguished ladies, first arrived at the garage side sitting in or driving luxury cars, then took the manor’s carriage over to the venue of the dinner.
The banquet was held in the dining room and across a vast expanse of the manor outdoors.
Now this vast expanse was adorned with crystal shops all around, looking as beautiful as tiny stars in the sky, and there was a pianist playing a serenade for the evening.
The weather tonight was very good, although the castle still looked as if it were shrouded in shadows. However, there was faint moonlight and starlight, and there was a breeze, and it didn’t rain.
Ye Qiu and Louise followed Ivan the butler out, with Wenting in tow. Ye Qiu stood behind Louise and Wenting, and if others saw him, they might think his attire wasn’t even comparable to that of the servants here, for it was too plain and mismatched for tonight’s dinner attire.
"Count Charley, Dr. Ye has arrived,"
the butler Ivan went up to Count Charley and said.
Count Charley had expected Ye Qiu to wear a tailor-made evening gown, but when he saw Ye Qiu’s outfit at first glance, he almost laughed out loud.
Is this really Dr. Ye?
Count Charley could hardly believe?
"Hi, Dr. Ye, let me introduce you. This is Count Augusta, who also has plenty of manors and castles in his family, and is an archbishop."
Count Augusta appeared about the same age as Count Charley, but Augusta seemed taller, and like other Frenchmen, had high and sharp noses, and his eyes were like those of an eagle.
Count Charley had been wounded by the Evil Device, and Augusta had personally come to examine him, knowing that Count Charley was unlikely to survive.
Yet, he had learned just the day before yesterday that Count Charley had been cured by a young doctor from the East.
If he didn’t know that Count Charley wouldn’t deceive him, he would have hardly believed that this young man could possess such profound medical skills.
To think he could save Count Charley, who had been so grievously injured by the Evil Device?
"This is Dr. Ye?"
Ye Qiu was too young!
And his attire was too plain!
This was completely different from the mysterious Eastern doctor Count Augusta had imagined. He initially thought Ye Qiu was at least in his forties.
But now, it appeared he might not even be twenty.
"Hello, Count Charley, Count Augusta!"
Ye Qiu greeted them in fluent French.
Now it was Wenting’s turn to be stunned!
Wasn’t Ye Qiu not supposed to know French?
But she hadn’t misheard just now; Ye Qiu’s French was very standard and fluent, and even carried a pure Parisian accent.
Is this really Ye Qiu?
As for Count Charley, the butler Ivan, and even Louise, they had all known already that Ye Qiu could speak French; he just hadn’t let Wenting know.
Hearing that Ye Qiu could speak French and had such impressive medical skills, Count Augusta no longer paid attention to Ye Qiu’s attire.
When a maid brought over red wine, Ye Qiu elegantly took it and presented it to Wenting and Louise. However, Wenting felt uncomfortable; she felt that Ye Qiu was deceiving her, hiding things from her, and still thought that Ye Qiu could not speak French. She felt that her translations over the past few days were like performing in front of Ye Qiu.
After tonight’s banquet, she was determined to settle scores with that bastard Ye Qiu.
