Chapter 1152 Dark Cinderella
"Sparrow?" Lorraine showed a surprised expression, then shook his head, "No, I don't like small animals."
If it wasn't for the coincidence that the sparrow was actually him, Shi Li would have been fooled by his superb acting skills.
But this is better. She didn't want Lorraine to know that she already knew he was the Little Sparrow. She almost exposed herself because of a short circuit in her brain just now. She had to be careful next time.
The dance on the last day was not over until nearly midnight.
It's raining outside.
Arthur held Cindy's hand tightly, unwilling to let go.
To him, Cindy was not only the girl who made his heart beat, but also the key to inherit the throne. The king's attitude just now was so obvious that after tonight, he might lose her forever.
He had to face his biased father and give an explanation to Anne. He didn't know why he was with Anne last night, since he obviously didn't like her.
Arthur's head was a mess, and he absent-mindedly held Cindy's hand and danced to song after song.
Their dancing was graceful and moving, but each of them had different thoughts in mind.
Seeing the clock on the wall approaching twelve o'clock, Cindy was extremely anxious. Everything she had now was blessed by magic. If twelve o'clock did not leave here and everything returned to the way it was before, she would have nothing.
Her weak magic was not enough to maintain everything on her body.
The clock is ticking, and there are only five minutes left.
"I'm sorry, I have to leave." Cindy had no choice but to break free from Arthur's hand with all her strength, picked up her skirt and ran outside.
Arthur chased after him without hesitation.
The famous scene is about to be staged!
Shi Li saw the scene of chase and escape out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but be cheered up.
"It's late, shall I take you home?" Lorraine responded as if he had heard her thoughts and said this.
"Okay, okay." Shi Li nodded hurriedly.
The two walked out of the party and saw Cindy's back disappearing in the rain.
Not far away, Arthur was holding a crystal shoe in his hand, looking lost.
At the same time, the clock struck twelve.
The crystal shoes shone with a faint magical light, which did not change or disappear. For her own future, Cindy left the only bit of magic in the crystal shoes, letting it pave the way for her future.
Everything was developing according to the normal plot. Shi Li held Qiaoqiao's hand behind her back. She would run away early tomorrow morning and there was absolutely no time to delay.
Just as he took a step outside, his arm was suddenly grabbed by Lorraine. Shi Li turned around and saw him taking the umbrella handed to him by the servant.
"It's raining, I'll take you there."
Although it is only a few steps from here to the carriage, you will definitely get wet if you don't hold an umbrella.
Shi Li did not refuse. Thinking that this might be the last time she would see Lorraine, she felt a little disappointed and walked silently under the umbrella.
The servant was really ignorant and only brought an umbrella.
In order to avoid getting wet, Shi Li could only lean closely against Lorraine.
After getting on the carriage, Shi Li looked back at the man standing in the rain with an umbrella. He raised the umbrella slightly and looked at her quietly with his dark eyes.
"Good night, dear...Lili."
Shi Li blushed and her heart beat fast, and she quickly closed the car door.
Oh no, I can’t stop feeling excited!
After sitting for a while, mother and Seren came back.
They were not so lucky and got soaked by the rain, especially Celine. As soon as she got on the carriage, she kept complaining about the damn weather and wasting her beautiful new dress and newly permed hair.
"Lili, why aren't you wet by the rain?" The mother glanced at Serin, and suddenly her attention was drawn to Shili, and she looked her up and down in confusion.
As she asked, Serin also looked at her, frowning and looking unhappy, "You're not wet in the rain? Who held an umbrella for you?"
