Chapter 318 Maybe there will be unexpected surprises
Pangu City back garden.
In order to reward everyone who has worked hard recently, Sanji and other chefs specially prepared this dinner.
There were quite a few people present.
Luffy brought Xiaoluo and Sabo to a long table. The two boys sat down casually, but the space left for Xiaoluo was next to Ace.
"........."
She tried to look as comfortable as possible and walked over.
As soon as he sat down, Ace suddenly stood up with a bottle of wine.
Then he passed a few people and walked to Marco's side to chat. As they chatted, they just sat there and couldn't leave.
This move was nothing in everyone's eyes. It was normal to chat with acquaintances, but it made Xiaoluo a little disappointed.
It was obvious that he didn't want to sit with her.
The relationship between the two has become what it is today because she brought it on herself.
Nothing to complain about.
But...why do I feel so uncontrollably depressed?
Luffy kept eating from the moment he sat down. He turned around and saw his sister staring at the plate in a daze, and asked, "Xiaoluo, why don't you eat?"
"Ah, no."
She picked up the fork on the table, forked a piece of tender beef and stuffed it into her mouth. She didn't know how to eat it.
Her gaze always glanced at Ace unintentionally, and even she didn't know it.
However, Xiaoli, who was sitting opposite, could see clearly. She got up and walked to Esmarco deliberately.
When the two saw this, they stood up with wine bottles in hand. The three of them didn't know what they said, and happy laughter came from the other side.
Xiaoluo's heart felt uncomfortable after hearing this.
Looking up again, he glanced over and saw Xiaoli approaching Ace ambiguously, tilting her head and kissing Ace's face.
"!!!"
This scene was so irritating that the fork in Xiaoluo's hand fell to the ground.
From her angle, it seemed that the other person had really kissed Ace's face, but in fact it was just a borrowed position and he didn't touch it at all.
After glancing at Xiaoluo's reaction, Xiaoli was very satisfied. No, she clearly had Ace in her heart.
At the beginning, she said righteously that she would never have anything to do with him in the future. Xiaoli almost believed her lies, thinking that she really didn't care about Ace.
Now it seems that is not the case.
Seeing that Xiaoli was too close to him, Ace subconsciously wanted to hide, but was stopped in advance: "Don't move, Xiaoluo is looking at you."
"???"
To see him?
Upon hearing this, Ace was stunned.
Since he was facing away from Xiaoluo, he had no idea what was happening behind him.
But he didn't believe that Xiaoluo would look at him secretly!
She hates him very much.
Ace was confused by what Xiaoli said and her strange behavior at this time.
The other party kept getting too close and hesitated to move. After Ace reacted, he still took two steps back and kept a certain distance from her.
"Okay Xiaoli, I..."
"I know, there is someone in your heart and you can't tolerate me. What's wrong? Are you afraid that she will misunderstand you?"
"........"
Ace was silent. It didn't seem to matter whether he misunderstood or not. Anyway, Aluo didn't have him in his heart.
He just doesn't like other women getting too close to him.
Xiaoli curled her lips: "He is really a good man who can withstand temptation. It's a pity that he doesn't belong to me."
"but......."
The woman took a step forward and said, "If you don't create some misunderstanding, how do you know whether you are important to her?"
"?"
Obviously, Ace didn't understand what she meant.
Xiaoli could tell from the clear and stupid eyes of the other party: "You are so stupid."
She came up with the answer so easily, but the two parties involved didn't know it.
One doesn't understand his feelings, and the other thinks she doesn't like him.
If this was the love story she was after, she would be so angry that she would bleed!
By the time they figure it out, she'll probably not only find her partner, but she'll also have a child, right?
Ace scratched his head and sat back down.
Then Qiao Mimi turned her head to look in Xiao Luo's direction, not daring to move too much for fear of being noticed by her.
Just as Xiaoluo picked up the fork from the ground, Sanji came over with a plate of freshly baked dishes and stood in front of her.
With a smile on his face, he said: "Xiao Luojiang, try the tomahawk steak I made."
Then he saw the fork in her hand was stained with dust: "Hey? Did it fall on the ground? I'll get you a new one."
"I'll just do it myself."
It's not good to bother others with this kind of thing. After all, Sanji is not a waiter in the restaurant. He took the initiative to host this dinner because he was considerate of them.
"Why are you being polite to me? I am very willing to serve you."
Sanji couldn't tolerate Xiaoluo's refusal, took the fork from her hand and left.
The "obstruction" in front of her disappeared, and she saw Ace holding his head and staring intently in her direction.
The two people looked at each other unexpectedly, which made Xiaoluo's heart skip a beat.
Ace was also stunned. He originally wanted to look away, but maybe it was because he hadn't looked at the person he loved for so long, so he was a little reluctant to let her go. He looked directly at her without avoiding it.
I have to leave anyway, so I just have to be willful for once.
He didn't know if it was his own illusion, but he found that the other person's eyes were slightly red, and he glared at him fiercely, and then turned his head to the side.
It seemed like he was very angry and felt wronged.
Sanji came over with a new fork and handed it to Xiaoluo with both hands. He smiled and was about to say something close, when Xiaoluo took the fork from his hand and angrily inserted it into the tomahawk steak.
The steak was medium-rare, and some bright red juice instantly splashed out, as if a knife was inserted into a person's heart.
Sanji was so frightened that he immediately closed his mouth and silently stepped aside.
He, he, he didn't seem to have done anything excessive, right?
When Xiaoluo thought of the scene of Xiaoli "kissing" Ace's cheek, a fire ignited in his heart, but he didn't avoid it?
He kept saying that he liked her and asked her to be his girlfriend. How long had it been since then?It only takes half a year!
Changed your mind so quickly?
I really didn't expect it!
O man!
No wonder I often hear people say that men are all big pigs, and that is absolutely true!
Luffy was eating happily, but was surprised by Xiaoluo's actions. He quickly poured the contents of the plate back into his sister's bowl, and actively admitted his mistake: "I, I, I just took a sausage! I saw you didn't eat for a long time and I thought You secretly ate in the office in the afternoon, Xiaoluo, don’t be angry with me!"
"I'm not angry with you!"
She took the knife and started to cut the steak, her posture was no different from cutting up a corpse.
Luffy:"........."
the other side.
Xiaoli followed Ace's gaze and said, "You're leaving tomorrow, why don't you say goodbye?"
They have rested in Pangu City for too long, and they will always have to return to their own territory.
Xiaoli: "If you don't go, why don't I go?"
Ace hesitated for a moment, but decided to say hello. After all, there would be cooperation in the future, and it would be bad to avoid it too deliberately.
As long as he tried his best to suppress his feelings for her and not get entangled, he thought Aluo would not deepen his dislike for him.
The angry Xiaoluo noticed something, turned around and glanced, and saw two people walking towards them one after another.
Don't know what to do?
not........
Inexplicably, she imagined Xiaoli holding Ace's hand and saying happily to everyone: "We are getting married. Everyone is welcome to come and have a wedding banquet."
Xiaoluo: "......"
She felt like she was in urgent need of an oxygen bottle now, and her heart was so congested that she almost couldn't breathe! ! !
The two stopped in front of them, which also caught the attention of Luffy and Sabo, who both looked over.
Xiaoli looked at Ace and motioned for him to speak.
Ace paused for a moment and then spoke: "We are going back to Mosifeng Island tomorrow. Let me say goodbye to you first. If you have time, you can go to my place to play."
Luffy stood up immediately and said in a coquettish tone: "So soon? Ace~~~, can you stay a few more days?"
As soon as Ace opened his mouth to say something, Xiaoli refused with a smile: "No, we have important things to do. We can't waste a moment. When you come next time, there should be one more person."
Ace's head was filled with questions: "???"
I always felt that something sounded wrong, but I didn’t know what was wrong.
The Asako Pirates do have a lot of things to deal with.
Sabo: "That was too sudden."
But he could also guess a thing or two. Since the conversation between Ace and Xiaoluo half a year ago, Ace has never mentioned fair competition again, and he has not seen Xiaoluo in the past few days.
He seems to have given up pursuing Xiaoluo.
Sabo should have been happy that his love rival had withdrawn on his own initiative, but instead he felt sad for his good brother.
Because he can put himself in someone else's shoes and has strong empathy, he would definitely feel uncomfortable if he was rejected.
So I feel a little sorry for Ace.
When she heard that he was leaving, Xiaoluo put her hands on her legs, clenched her fists tightly, and remained seated without moving.
The mood is really messed up.
What do you mean they both have important things to do and can't waste a moment?
Both of them!Important matter! !No delay! ! !
Will there be one more person?
Is getting married and having children on the agenda?
This speed..........
The more she thought about it, the redder her eyes became. She didn't know whether it was from anger or something else, but Xiaoluo felt very uncomfortable at this moment.
I don't know why I was so angry as to say such things to him half a year ago, and I also promised Xiaoli that I would not go to Ace, nor would I compete with her for Ace.
But at this moment, I knew that the two of them were together...
She never thought she would be so sad.
Ace saw that Xiaoluo had been turning his back to him and had no intention of saying goodbye to him. He didn't want to make the relationship so tense, so he took the initiative to speak: "Aluo..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Xiaoluo stood up, his eyes were red with a layer of water in them, he stared at Ace, and said with a forced smile: "I know, I know, then I wish you happiness. I suddenly remembered that there are many more I haven’t finished my official duties, so I’ll take my leave now.”
As soon as the sound fell, Xiaoluo walked past Ace and went straight to the garden entrance.
Ace: "???"
What has he done to wish him happiness?
Luffy felt a little regretful: "The dinner party has just begun."
My sister has already left.
Wow, the excitement has suddenly been reduced by half!
"Pfft~"
Looking at Xiaoluo's sad back, Xiaoli laughed out loud.
Then he said to Ace: "Later, tell Xiaoluo, 'We are not together', maybe there will be an unexpected surprise~"
