The enchanting duke's only wife

Chapter 90 The Strange Man (2)
If he likes straight hair, she's fine with it.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you." Xu Nuo thought that she thought it was troublesome to take care of straight hair, unlike curly hair, it didn't even matter if she didn't comb her hair every day, so she immediately volunteered.

"Then I'll trouble you, Lord Duke." Ye Jue smiled, and walked out the door together with his arm.

They said it was a private party, but Ye Jue knew it was not a simple matter when he saw that the banquet hall was booked out in a high-end hotel.Although she was occasionally dragged by promises to attend noble gatherings before, small gatherings in England were almost always held in her own garden, which was much more leisurely than in hotels with marble floors.Large chandeliers, long corridors and huge doors... Ye Jue had the illusion that he was deceived by the promise of a "private party".

Whose "private party" is it that requires such a big battle!
Suspiciously looking at Xu Xu aside, the other party just turned around and smiled at her without explaining, and led her into the banquet hall amid Dawes's familiar voice...

"The Duke and Lady Rex are here!"

The two people who looked like a perfect match attracted everyone's attention when they entered the arena.Not only because of the promise of beauty and status, but also because of the retro British-style bridal gown on Ye Jue beside him.Ye Jue seemed to only pay attention to the thickness of the gown, without realizing that it was an ancient bridal gown.But at this moment, she clearly heard the word "duchess"...

"you……"

"Hush, there are so many people watching. Keep up your manners, Duchess." Xu Nuo smiled harmlessly, but Ye Jue had to shut up.It's impossible to confront him at this time, isn't this rushing ducks to the shelves!
Inexplicably, she became his Duchess!I go to you!

Apparently Ye Jue's resentful eyes didn't make any impression on Xu Nuo, he showed his polite and distant smile again, and nodded slightly to those who came to say hello to show his status as a nobleman.

Ye Jue looked at these gorgeously dressed women, and he seemed to be vaguely aware of the merchant's wives and daughters in his conversation, and he was vaguely impatient.What she hates the most when attending such a party is being with businessmen.Men always talk about economics and politics, while women enjoy gossip.On such an occasion, if you are with the nobles, most of the discussions will be on topics such as art and travel, and Ye Jue will not be too bored.She even occasionally finds inspiration that delights her.

But at this moment, she could only pull a stiff smile, planning to just go along with the past and quickly find a secluded corner to be a wallflower.But how could this group of gossiping women let her go.Not to mention appearing with the Duke, it is also rumored to be the Duchess.But this Duke is known to be single!
"Master Duke Rex," the woman who spoke obviously had a relatively high status among the group of women. After she spoke, everyone fell silent, listening to her question in standard English, "Who is this lady?"

"Didn't you all hear it just now? Why ask me." Xu Nuo replied in Chinese, leading Ye Jue around their encirclement under their surprised eyes, "Then, we will excuse you first."

"Could it be that the marriage news will be announced today?" The other women beside her immediately whispered in surprise.

"Maybe she got married a long time ago and didn't announce it?"

"As you said, judging by the woman's appearance, she should be in her 20s. I don't know how skillful she is to be able to climb up to the Duke!"

"Maybe he has a background too!"

Ye Jue heard those gossip discussions, angrily lowered his voice to Xu Nuo's ear and said, "It's all you!"

She was wearing high heels, and she could see his bright eyes when she raised her head a little. For the first time, she felt that she and Xu Nuo could be so close.In the past, the height difference between the two of them was so big, they were always buried in his arms, and it was rare to be able to look at him almost at the same level.

"Ah Jue..." There was a hint of helplessness and depression in Xu Nuo's voice, "You can do whatever you want with me, but don't come here again? I have no interest in being surrounded by people."

Only then did Ye Jue realize what an ambiguous gesture this was, and immediately obediently returned to his original position and took him by the arm and slowly walked towards the destination he promised...near the stage with the most people.

Several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes saw that the promise had arrived, and immediately walked over courteously, bowing their heads and saying compliments.Xu Nuo just nodded, told them not to worry about himself and Ye Jue, and continued walking towards the stage.

"Your Excellency!" The moment someone finally called Xu Nuo, Ye Jue should have been grateful to this person, but suddenly stiffened after turning his head.

The person who stopped Xu Nuo in front of him was also a middle-aged man, but compared to most businessmen with a beer belly, he was in good shape, and he could still see that he was a handsome guy when he was young.An ordinary suit also made Ye Jue appreciate his attire because of a little revealing handkerchief.The low-key gorgeousness is very suitable.

Of course, it wasn't this man who made her stiff, but the woman behind him who looked a little like his, who should be his daughter.

Li Ziyi.

The one who was almost forgotten.Hugging with Su Nuan, listening to how much Su Nuan dislikes Zhong Nuan's girl.The person Ye Jue thought he had forgotten had actually been locked in a small black box in his heart all along, and he only needed to push it slightly to open it, bringing out those memories he wanted to forget.

"Hello, Mr. Li." Xu Nuo didn't deal with it anymore, but greeted him politely.

"I'm really flattered that the Duke can come to participate!" Li Zizhi's father, Li Hao, was obviously much calmer than those previous sycophants, and his conversation was not annoying.

Ye Jue also saw the admiration in Ye Jue's eyes. He put his arms around her waist and said, "Come on, A Jue, this is Mr. Li Hao, the owner of this hotel. Mr. Li, this is my fiancee, Ye Jue."

"Miss Ye, hello."

"Hello, Mr. Li." The two gently shook hands.

"This is my daughter, Li Zizhang." Li Hao introduced Li Zizhang, who was also well-dressed behind him and looked like a lady.Ye Jue was able to recognize her at a glance, but it was because she was also dressed in the same way back then, giving people the delicate and delicate feeling of Xiaojiabiyu.She always speaks in a soft voice, with the gentle style of a teasing Jiangnan woman.Such a girl might be the right match for Su Nuan at that time.Only then did Ye Jue feel that it was a shame that he didn't ask Su Nuan what happened to Li Zizhang when he came back.
