This woman was obviously Shirley's maid, but now she was so rude as to reach out and touch his son.
The most important thing is... he hasn't even seen clearly what Her Majesty the Queen gave Xizel.
Shirley's indifferent expression almost broke down, fearing that Grand Duke Oka would say something rude.
She sorted out her emotions, maintained her facial expression, coughed lightly, and said, "I am a newcomer serving Her Majesty the Queen, so I don't know much about etiquette. I'm really sorry..."
Qiu paused, then Shirley quickly looked at Xizel and said in a calm and soothing voice: "But she is right..."
Si: "Let's open this gift when we get back."

Chapter 16 Can I go back to the past... (5K)
In fact, not only Grand Duke Oka, but even Shirley, the person who gave the gift, didn't know what kind of gift His Majesty had prepared.
Because, in the past, Shirley was fully responsible for preparing everything, but this time the gift was prepared by Yves personally.
Wu Xueli maintained a professional smile on her face: "There are so many people here, it's not very convenient to open the gifts... Master Xizel shouldn't be in a hurry, right?"
I'm so angry. I obviously want to see what kind of gift Her Majesty the Queen has prepared for Caesar, but now I have to persuade Caesar to go back and open the gift.
However...if Master Xizel refused himself, it would be difficult for her to continue to stop him.
Thinking of this, Shirley couldn't help but look at César with some anticipation.
For a moment, the nobles nearby, including the naturally aloof Isabella, looked curiously at the gift in Césaire's hand.
Not far away, Craig was holding a goblet in one hand, chatting and laughing with the noble beside him, but his smile was obviously less relaxed than usual.
From the beginning, everyone's eyes have involuntarily turned to the direction of Xizel, even the noble girl who is talking to him now seems absent-minded.
Obviously, Shirley's appearance and the gift she just gave had made César, who had been sitting in the corner, the focus of the whole audience.
Everyone was curious about the gift given by Her Majesty the Queen.
Although he tried to pretend that he didn't care, when he saw the guests at the ball all looking at the boy, Craig's face suddenly turned ugly.
From the past to the present, Pound Manor has held several dinner parties, and every time, he is the focus of attention.
The admiration of the aristocratic girls and the chatter and agreement of the guests, all of this belonged to Craig alone.
At the beginning of the dance tonight, Craig was still being sought after and echoed by the nobles as he had been in the past.
However... now everything has changed.
Just because of a gift, nothing more than that, but it made César the focus of the whole audience and the object of envy of countless people.
Just when Craig was still feeling a little twisted, Cesar had already placed the gift box in his hand on the table.
It was just a single action, but it filled Shirley’s heart with anticipation.
It is said that Master Caesar is 99% rebellious and will do whatever others tell him not to do.
There is still hope...
But just as she thought of this, Xizel looked up and said with a smile: "Okay, since Sister Shirley said so, let's take it down when we get back."
The smile on Shirley's face froze slightly.
Even Grand Duke Oka, who was standing by, had a glimmer of regret in his eyes. He couldn't help but look at his own child deeply, wondering why he had never seen this child so obedient before?
"After all, it's a gift from Her Majesty the Queen. It would be better to open it slowly in my free time after the ball."
Xizel smiled and said, "Let's keep this curiosity until after the dance is over."
Hearing this, everyone present was inevitably disappointed.
But it's not a good idea to say anything in this situation.
Only the maid who was traveling with Shirley, who was dressed simply but had a graceful and elegant figure, had a satisfied smile in her eyes.
Seeing Césaire handing the gift to Isabella to keep, the drama before the ball finally came to an end.
Novia looked at this scene with a complex expression in her eyes, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
At this moment, the surroundings of the Golden Hall suddenly dimmed, and the classical symphony orchestra in the Pound Manor played elegant and magnificent music.
This also means that the dance party at Pound Manor tonight has officially opened.
"I'll leave the rest of the time to you young people. I'm going to go and catch up with my old friends."
Duke Oka patted César's shoulder gently and said, "Don't sit here and be in a daze all the time. Young people should go out and move more."
"After all, you are the protagonist tonight."
In fact, Duke Oka did not say the whole story.
He originally wanted to say that you are the protagonist of the night, why did your brother steal all the limelight... However, looking at the gift that symbolized supreme honor held in Isabella's hands, Grand Duke Oka finally swallowed back what he wanted to say and left with the red wine glass.
Even if César did nothing, the gift bestowed by Her Majesty the Queen was enough to make him the most watched person at the ball.
As the ball officially opened, the noblemen at the scene had already extended their hands to the girls they liked, gracefully inviting them to dance with them.
Xizel gently swung the red wine glass in his hand, looked up and asked with a smile: "Miss Shirley is here for a rare visit, why don't you go up and dance with her?"
Shirley shook her head slightly and smiled, "It's not appropriate for me to go up there. Besides, what I'm wearing tonight is not suitable for dancing." Q
As she spoke, she couldn't help but secretly take a few more glances at the young man in front of her.
This was also the first time that Shirley had observed this boy named Cesar so closely and carefully.
After all, he is someone that Her Majesty the Queen is interested in, so I guess there must be something special about him...:
She had always held this idea before coming here, but now from the outside, it seems that there is nothing special about the youngest son of Grand Duke Oka except that he is fair and good-looking.
At least…that was all she could see at first glance.
"So, Miss Shirley came here today specifically to give you this gift?" Xizel suddenly asked curiously.
Shirley came back to her senses and nodded slightly, saying, "I guess so. After all, your current status is special, and His Majesty also values it very much."
The special identity does not simply refer to the young master of Pound Manor, but the identity of the fiancé of the third princess.
Although she didn't continue talking, Xizel had already heard the hidden meaning in Shirley's words.
But now, regarding the engagement with the third princess, César was able to maintain a good attitude. At the moment, he just sipped his red wine and looked at the gentlemen who were inviting the noble ladies to the ball.
Shirley took this opportunity to secretly glance at the "maid" beside her, with a questioning look in her eyes.
Apparently asking if she could leave the party.
However, the maid did not seem to notice Shirley's gaze. From beginning to end, she just secretly looked in the direction of César, as if thinking about something.
The maid who had just stopped César from opening the gift and was traveling with Shirley was naturally the Queen of the Camelot Empire.
Not long ago, before Yves set out for Pound Manor, she received an investigation intelligence from the Securities Regulatory Bureau.
It was after obtaining the investigation information that the empress suddenly decided to prepare a gift for Xizel.
As for the reason for doing this... Shirley is still confused.
Anyway, after that, Yves took a special transformation potion to conceal her true identity, and then followed Shirley into the ball as a "maid".
And at this moment, she was secretly looking at the young man who looked a little immature sitting opposite her.
Shirley silently looked at Her Majesty the Queen who completely ignored her, and couldn't help but tilt her head slightly.
A small head with big questions.
Since entering the hall, His Majesty has been staring at Xizel... Why?
Because you are optimistic about the third princess, so you love her and her family, so you also like Caesar?
As Shirley was thinking about this, a flash of blue lightning suddenly flashed through her mind.
If I remember correctly, Her Majesty seems to have been looking for someone recently, but after receiving the news from the Securities Regulatory Bureau not long ago, Her Majesty did not allow her to continue the investigation.
It was also after that that Her Majesty the Queen's attitude towards César suddenly became much more ambiguous.
Perhaps, Xizel is the person His Majesty is looking for?
But why would she look for César for any reason?
Are they old acquaintances?
The problem is that Xizel is only sixteen this year. How could he and His Majesty have any connection... ?
Could it be that……
9 An extremely absurd idea came to Shirley’s mind.
lin...Your Majesty, do you have any idea of refining ()?
⑷ As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, Shirley immediately shook her head to dispel this disrespectful idea.
㈧Anyone can question His Majesty, but only she... will definitely stand by His Majesty unconditionally.
4. At least we should not doubt His Majesty's motives.
⑵This is what a person named 'Shirley Skadi' should do.
㈨Thinking of this, Shirley picked up the red wine glass on the table and took a sip to calm herself.
At this time, Cesar also said goodbye at the right time.
Duke Oka has just said so much, and it is somewhat inappropriate for him to continue sitting here and eating.
Shirley was about to look away when she saw César getting up and leaving with the maid Isabella.
At this moment, she suddenly seemed to realize something and subconsciously looked towards the door of the hall.
I don't know when it started, but another guest arrived at the party.
She was wearing a black rose-colored long dress with an elegant posture. Compared with the blonde hair of most aristocratic girls, she had a waterfall of silver hair full of cool-toned texture.
Her temperament is dignified and cold, but her pair of bright red eyes are captivating.
So enchanting, like a witch returning to the world.
"Your Highness Yulina!"
Someone in the crowd immediately recognized her identity and couldn't help but whisper to himself subconsciously: "She's here?"
You know, the Third Princess seldom attended such public dances in the past. She focused more of her time and energy on government affairs.
I didn't expect that she would come tonight...
For a moment, all the nobles present vaguely smelled a hint of unusual scent.
Faced with some strange looks, Yulina's expression did not change at all. She just walked into the ball under the guidance of her confidant.
Then, he sat down alone in a corner.
Unlike César, who had been frequently invited to dance by noble girls since he left his seat, the seat where Yulina sat was always exceptionally quiet.
It’s not that she is not beautiful enough, on the contrary, Yulina’s dress is indeed quite suitable for tonight’s ball.
However, her identity and even the characteristics of a "witch" were enough to scare away the nobles in the Camelot Empire, let alone take the initiative to come forward and invite her to dance.
"Actually, you don't have to come to the dance today. The Sixth Princess didn't come either."
The confidant Avian stood respectfully beside Yulina and whispered.
"She is different from me. After all, it is me who is engaged to Cesar, not her."
Yulina shook her head gently, looking at the gentlemen and ladies dancing gracefully to the music in the center of the golden hall, her voice filled with gentleness and calmness.
Tonight's ball is held to celebrate Xi Zeer's awakening of extraordinary power. For this purpose, Duke Oka invited many nobles in the empire to participate.
Yulina was naturally one of the invitees.
If it were in the past, Yulina would naturally not go to such a public occasion.
But she and César are now engaged, and if she doesn't come, it's inevitable that someone will spread some bad rumors.
and……
The person who secretly pushed for this marriage engagement simply wanted to see her and Césaire fight and hurt each other.
The more her enemies wanted her to do something, the more she would fight back against them in another way.
Just like Cesar said... make those who pushed for the marriage regret their decision.
