I am Lapland’s rat!

Wu Xian quickly jumped up from the sofa and shook his tail quickly.

This positive action made Lapland raise his lips in surprise: "Let me tell you first, this is not for fun."

Wu Xian was still wagging his tail.

As a result, Lapland's brows relaxed a little unconsciously, and his smile became more genuine.

……

The next day, Lapland took Wu Xian to see Swanov again and expressed his intention to go to the dance.

This made Swanov couldn't help but smile so hard that his eyes narrowed, and he sent another invitation letter to Lapland.

When Lapland said that she wanted to take Wu Xian to the dance, Swanov was of course a little surprised, but he still agreed to Lapland's request.

After all, in his opinion, even if Lapland wants to use his pets to establish a good relationship with the ladies who also have pets, a mere sight of the mole beast can't change anything.

Moreover, Swanov also kindly warned:

"Ms. Lapland, I suggest you buy a cage and bring your mole beast with you, otherwise it might scare those ladies."

Lapland has nothing to lose.

……

……

The sun and the moon went through another cycle, and the scheduled dance day arrived.

It's night, and the dark blue sky is illuminated by the bright neon lights of the city. Under the rows of high-rise buildings with lights on, the lobby of the Marguerite Hotel is shining with brilliant light, illuminating the door with brilliant colors. streets.

At the entrance of the lobby, several groups of well-dressed adult men and women were talking to each other, with appropriate social smiles on their faces, which seemed both intimate and polite.

A little further inside, there is a tall middle-aged film-making man in a suit, and next to him is a tall and beautiful film-making girl wearing a Victorian evening dress. The father and daughter are both dressed in costumes, and each one Guests who entered the lobby from outside the hotel suppressed their social smiles and replaced them with brighter or more flattering smiles when passing in front of these two people.

This is Stanley Watt and Margaret Watt, the chairman and his daughter of "Uncle Watt", one of the most famous daily necessities brands in Colombia.

This hotel, which occupies a large area, was just renamed by Mr. Walter after his daughter today.

"Congratulations, Mr. Walter!"

"I wish you good health, Miss Walter!"

"Happy birthday, Margaret!"

Every guest stayed in front of the Walters and his daughter and sent their blessings to the eldest lady for her coming of age.Some of them are celebrities in politics and business, some are giants in academia, and some are Margaret’s classmates at Phillips Private High School—the parents of these classmates are usually the above two types of people. .

Where the lights were bright, the two of them also smiled and responded to everyone's blessings one by one.

A little far away from the hotel door, a tall and slightly bloated Ursus man was pacing quietly in the darkness.

Although he has been in the gray world for many years, he still can't shake off the violent temper he brought from Ursus.

At this time, Swanov felt a little irritable:

"Why hasn't Lapland come yet?"

No.17 Before the dance

For Swanov, Lapland was willing to come to the ball, which was certainly a relief and worthy of joy.

After all, it meant he was indeed right.

In Swanov's view, Sofia sent Lapland to open the company with her own strength, not just to force Swanov to help her cultivate her direct lineage through the intimidation of the head of the Salvatore family.

After all, if this was the case, Sofia shouldn't just ignore him after setting up the matchmaking process. Instead, she should call a few subordinates loyal to Salvatore to keep an eye on Swanov!

Yes, he was angry at first, but after he calmed down, he came back to his senses.

Swanov thought he had keenly captured Sophia's "true intention":

This is a test from the Georgia family to their Mosetti family!

This is reasonable. After all, Salvatore is old and weak, and his control over various branches has steadily declined in recent years. It is very likely that Giorgia no longer wants to stay under his father and be a good girl.

She wanted to test the other factions' attitudes toward her and see if Mossetti would tolerate her developing in the same realm as him.

Only in this way would Georgia send such a young Luper woman to register the company - Lapland was a Syracusan, a person who came from a remote place like the countryside.

This also seems to be telling Swanov that Lapland has no background at all and she is easy to manipulate.

And Lapland is now "forced" to agree to participate in the dance, which just confirms Swanov's idea——

She is just a pawn sent by the Georgia family!

What kind of voice this security company can retain depends entirely on how the Mosedi family views Georgia's surrender!

——Yes, there was a huge misunderstanding between Lapland and Swanov.

On the slightly dark road outside the hotel lobby, Swanov was pacing back and forth.

Of course, he didn't know that Cellinina had returned to Colombia. Lapland's actions not only had to be hidden from their family, but also from the Giorgia family and Salvatore. He couldn't rely on Salvatore's power in the first place.

And Lapland thought that Swanov was too dangerous and complicated, and Swanov regarded Lapland's caution as a symbol of her weakness and vulnerability.

Because of this, Swanov helped Lapland complete the redundant procedures at such a fast speed.

After all, he didn't think that a pushed chess piece could cause any trouble.

"...Lapland hasn't come yet." Swanov raised his watch under the street light and looked at the time, sighing.

As for Lapland, since he judged it to be a test by the Georgia family, Swanov of course called to ask Mosedi Texas for his opinion.

Mosedi only replied with a short sentence:

"Give her some autonomy, but control her in the general direction."

That's easy.

With Swanov's methods, he can actively create difficulties in the process of registering a company in Lapland.

Just like now, Lapland was unable to apply for a license, but the company's registration was at a critical moment. Even if he could give up and go through the application process next time, the legal fees spent in the process would be a huge expense.

At this time, Lapland had to come and beg him Swanov.

And what bad intentions could Swanov have?

He just wanted to control Lapland and her security company in various ways.

Swanov believed that Lapland, who had agreed to attend the ball with him, had understood that without him, she would not be able to get any benefits in the mall in Tremont;

In this way, it is only reasonable for Swanov to obtain the capital contribution of Lapland Security Company through an agreement to obtain more than half of the voting rights.

and……

To be honest, LaPland's appearance and personality completely hit Swanov's strike zone.

Since he was still in Ursus, he has liked girls who have a hint of heroism in appearance and a strong personality with a hint of weakness.

However, the shelf life of Ursus girls is too short, and the Lupus have no worries in this regard.

It's a pity that Lapland was probably born in the countryside, and Swanov is now a big shot with assets, so he can only treat her as his lover for a few years.

……

At this time, the sound of footsteps sounded in Swanov's ears.

He turned around and found Lapland walking towards him.

But this white-haired Luper girl was not wearing the evening dress he imagined, but a black women's double-breasted evening dress, with long silver-white hair flying behind her.

For a long moment, Swanov was shocked by the aura that spread out from Lapland. He even couldn't help but think that the white-haired Luper in front of him was a noble eldest lady of a certain family. This kind of misjudgment Making him take a step back involuntarily.

Only then did Swanov realize who the visitor was, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

……

"Shu, I hate cages the most." Wu Xian squatted in a small hamster cage where Laplande was sneaking around, observing the exchange between Laplande and Swanov through the thin iron mesh. .

Seeing that Swanov made an aggressive request to enter side by side, and Lapland raised his hand to refuse, Wu Xian had the urge to throw a "fun" at the fat bear right now.

"Forget it, don't rush yet."

Wu Xian sighed, and after several verbal exchanges with Swanov, Lapland seemed to have gotten the information he wanted, so there was a hint of a smile in his words: "Please , Mr. Swanov.”

"Please, please," Swanov smiled.

Although he was a little disappointed, it did not reach the level of dissatisfaction.

After all, he thought he had things under control.

The two of them walked to the door of the Marguerite Hotel together. Today, there is still an endless stream of guests in front of the hotel.

The Walters and their daughters were still greeting visitors at the door - this was originally part of the hospitality etiquette of the Victorian aristocracy, but these new rich people in Colombia had only learned the most superficial part of it.

At this time, Swanov whispered to Lapland: "Miss Lapland, don't do anything unnecessary. Mr. Walter can't possibly know us. We just need to learn from those people and send blessings as usual. Then just go to the dance.”

"Don't go to the front of the hall, we have our place. Just get into the ball and you can socialize in the circle."

Then, Swanov took the lead and climbed the stairs in front of the Margherita Hotel.

Wu Xian, who was squatting in the cage, saw that as soon as Swanov left Lapland, he suddenly put on an extremely flattering smile. All the fat on his face was piled together, making him look very funny;

He walked up the steps with standard strides, then bent down and congratulated with a smile:

"Mr. Walter, congratulations on your coming of age! I am little Swanov who manages business information and investment!"

Mr. Walter, who was standing at the door, just said a faint "hmm" and let Swanov in.

Swanov showed no dissatisfaction on his face and quickly turned around and entered the lobby.

Chapter 18 High Society

After Wu Xian saw Swanov entering the lobby, he stood at the junction of the spiral staircase in front of the ballroom and the lobby's vestibule. He turned his gaze to the door, waiting for Lapland to enter.

Lapland also set off at this moment. She carried Wu Xian into the light emanating from the door of the Marguerite Hotel in a nonchalant manner, and then climbed up the steps.

Wu Xian noticed that he attracted the attention of many celebrities chatting around him.

To be honest, except when he used "Not yet", this was the first time he had received so many looks.

Wu Xian could even hear the surprised ladies talking about this handsome young lady who brought a flying beast. They asked each other which family Lapland was from, and then came to the conclusion that they knew nothing about it. .

Naturally, Wu Xian's mentality before he used the skill was not as good as when he used the skill. Under the influence of rat instinct, Wu Xian couldn't help but shrink in the cage.

"Haren, it would be better if there wasn't this cage."

When he reached the steps, Lapland was stopped by a man dressed as a housekeeper: "Miss, do you have an invitation letter?"

Lapland took out the invitation letter from the lapel of his evening gown and handed it to the butler, who then excused himself and withdrew.

They do not prohibit participants from bringing pets to the ball. After all, this is also part of the fun of life for rich ladies.

The Walter father and daughter standing at the door also saw this scene. When Lapland walked up to them and was about to congratulate the two of them as Swanov said, it was the tall film girl who first curiously said Asked:

"Miss, is this your pet mole?"

Miss Margaret had a pair of large lake-blue eyes, white-brown cat ears and hair. She bent down slightly and carefully observed Wu Xian within the bounds of etiquette.

Wu Xian squatted in the cage and blinked, looking innocently at the beautiful girl who suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

Margaret suddenly burst into laughter, then straightened up and said to Lapland who stopped at the door: "It's so cute. Can you tell me its name?"

"Ah, I'm sorry." After saying this, Margaret realized something was wrong. She glanced at Mr. Walter, who was unhappy next to her, and quickly added: "Before that, Miss, can I know your name? ?”

Lapland's eyes looked a little weird for a moment, but she quickly showed a perfect smile and said: "I am Lapland Saluzzo. It is Little Silver."

"Ah, Little Silver," Margaret praised, "Miss Saluzzo, your pet has a really good name. Can I still see it at the dinner party?"

"Of course." Lapland nodded.

She had noticed that Mr. Walter looked a little unhappy, so she apologized to the father and daughter like a lady for taking up their guest time, and then left and walked to the back of the lobby.

At this time, Mr. Walter's expression changed from unhappy to satisfied.

"Ah, it seems that these two can be a breakthrough." Wu Xian was thinking in his mind, and glanced at Miss Margaret who was still looking this way in the cage, and finally turned around and looked at the stairs. At the junction with the front hall, Swanov looked equally unhappy.

When Lapland came closer, he saw Swanov's face was very dissatisfied: "Lapland, you are so rude!"

"How can you keep Mr. Walter waiting for so long! You must know your identity clearly and don't daydream about reaching the sky in one step." Seeing Lapland stop where he was, Swanov warned seriously:

"They are friendly to you just because of their etiquette, not because they really like you because of a mole beast."

Seeing Lapland nodding, Swanov breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly cursed himself for allowing Lapland to bring her mole beast, which caused such an incident.
