"Shaffer, hurry up and help me get a glass of water, I'm so thirsty" As soon as she left the inner hall, Alice immediately came to a lounge in the corridor, patting her stiff cheeks with both hands, and it was very tiring to keep smiling all the time, her cheeks were a little stiff, if it weren't for the artist habits she had cultivated over the years, it would have been good to have no cramps.

Shaffer poured a glass of mineral water from the lounge and walked over and placed it in Alice's hand to "your water"

"Hmm" Alice took a small sip of the water glass and drank it, although she wanted to pour it all down, but for the sake of her throat, she could only be so gentle, leaning on her seat and looking at this lounge, antique, three classical sofas, there were some vases and aromatherapy in the room, and there were bookshelves on the wall.

I didn't find anything interesting at all, so I leaned back on the sofa and rested, "Schaffel, can you get me some food, and don't let people disturb me"

"Okay, Miss," Shaffer nodded and walked to the door, and when he closed the door, he took a special look at the situation on both sides, walked into the hall and got some food and hurried back.

Alice looked at the desserts and dishes that Shavre put on the coffee table, picked up a beef roll with her chin and ate it, sighed her mouth, and nodded with satisfaction, "Hmm~ The taste is delicate, there is no astringency of raw beef at all, the chef is very good, the level is so high, and the flower salad, tsk, Shaffer, the level of your choice of food is also rising."

"Thank you for the compliment, Miss" Shaffer stood aside and nodded silently, and in the blink of an eye, he saw Alice holding a beef roll in front of him, pursed his lips, and reached out to take it, "Thank you, Miss"

"There is so much food outside, you brought two plates here, fortunately, treat you" Alice saw Shavre eating the beef rolls, smiled lightly and sat back in her position, hearing the music coming from outside, her brows furrowed "French opera Faust, who is so discerning to put this kind of song"

The opera Faust is about a deal between Doctor Faustus and the devil, lured by the devil to travel the world, experience a journey of love and adventure, and change to other occasions, this opera is quite suitable, but in such a banquet, it is obviously a little awkward.

"Xiaoya, tell the person who played the song to change it, Mendelssohn, A Midsummer Night's Dream, the interlude is ready"

A Midsummer Night's Dream, one of Shakespeare's comedy representatives, musician Mendelssohn wrote a two-step musical work for this novel, one is an overture, the other is a dramatic soundtrack, and it is also the first romantic title concert overture in music history, the overall tune is cheerful, bright, representing a happy life, a portrayal of cheerful emotions, the melody is full of natural fantasy and poetry, it can be said to be a world famous song.

Alice's choice of this song is also very simple, why put a song related to demons at a banquet, it is better to be lighter, listen to something good, and make the mood better.

In front of the hotel, on the wide courtyard lake, after getting Xu Jianlin's permission, Alice left early, taking advantage of the night, so she planned to hang around the lake and then go back, standing at the end of the boat and looking at the scenery on the lake comfortably, you can also see the fish swimming briskly in the lake, and laugh faintly.

"Miss, please sit in your seat, I'm afraid that the boat is unstable and you will fall" Shaffer stood behind him and nervously pulled Alice's arm, and turned his head to look at the boatman in front of him who was holding the boat blindfolded.

The boatman could tell that he was talking about himself, but he tilted his head indifferently and continued to do his own thing.

"Don't be nervous, Shavre, I know" Alice smiled at Shaffer's face, looked at the bottom of the lake with nostalgia, and finally sat down on the seat in the middle of the boat, turning her head to look at the boatman with her back to her.

The boatman is very tall, estimated to be about the same height as Shaffer, with a round hat on his head, from behind, the body is very strong, his hands and feet are wrapped in bandages, the wooden slippers are a little old, and the clothes on his body are the golden-green uniforms issued by the hotel staff, the key is that the boatman needs to see the road, but he blindfolded him with a red strip of cloth, before getting on the boat, I heard that he is the best boatman in the hotel, so he will come up, now look at it, there is no certain reason, blindfolded can support the boat to float on the lake steadily, it is indeed the best。

"Excuse me, how did you see clearly" was really a little curious, why the blindfolded could make the ship move forward so smoothly, Alice couldn't help but ask.

After asking, the response is quiet, so to speak, ignorance, yes, ignorance, the boatman directly ignores Alice and continues to work on his own.

Seeing Alice's expression become embarrassed, Shaffel stood up dissatisfiedly and said coldly to the boatman, "Miss Alice is the heir of the hotel, as an employee, don't you know what etiquette and respect are?"

The scene was quiet again, well, even Shavre was ignored.

Alice turned her head to look at the boatman with interest, knowing that Shavre was a little angry, she stretched out her hand to stop him, shook her head and said, "Sit down, Shaffer, he works very hard, this is already good etiquette for me"

The boatman turned his head slightly to look at Alice, smelling the fragrance of the air that did not belong to the artificial lake and forest, and turned his head back, and for the first time uttered his own voice, "I will only respect those who respect me"

Listening to the other party's hoarse and dull voice, Alice's brows were furrowed, this kind of voice is super unsuitable for singing, it is estimated that talking too much will give people a headache, reluctantly holding out a smile, and said, "How long have you been working here?"

"Thirteen Years"

Hearing this hoarse voice again, Alice couldn't help but reach out and rub her ears, "Ahem, have you been working as a boatman?"

"Hmm"

"You haven't answered my question yet, how can you still see blindfolded.... Uh, I mean, you're so good that you can feel the way."

"The road is not seen with the eyes, but with the heart"

"Ang~ That's it, thank you" Alice inexplicably felt that she had been taught a lesson, rubbed her neck awkwardly, smiled awkwardly and said, "Excuse me, your name is"

The "name" boatman paused in his action of holding the boat, turned his head to look at the source of the voice, his empty eyes fixed on Alice, and he turned his head lightly and said, "Li Qing"

(To commemorate the LOL that has been out of the pit..... ）

It's the first time Alice has been so interested in a boatman, not to mention the other party's attitude of ignoring him, just because he knows his relationship with this hotel, and he ignores himself and continues to work, but he admires it a little, which is why he will take the initiative to chat with him, a stranger.

When he walked to the shore, Alice stood opposite Li Qing and looked at him carefully, stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his face, and found that he suddenly retreated, and couldn't help laughing, "Very alert, have you ever injured your hand, and you have been wearing bandages?"

"Burns"

"Eyes..... Can't you really see it?"

"Yes"

Seeing that the other party had no intention of talking more, Alice could only give up, remembering that this person was so unique that even the heir of the hotel did not care about him, turned around and walked into the carriage that was already waiting, and headed towards the castle.

"Xiaoya, what kind of person is this Li Qing, so arrogant, he refuses to say a word more" On the way back, Alice was still full of curiosity and turned to artificial intelligence for help.

"Mr. Li Qing is fourteen years ago, Mr. Xu was in Vietnam when he rescued a patient, I heard that he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, is a martial arts master, once killed people, in order to make amends into the monastery to become an ascetic monk, and finally because of the guilt in his heart, he chose **** This way of atonement, after being rescued, his eyes are invisible"

"Ang~ That's it, it's pitiful, martial arts master, in this way, I figured out why he was so strong" Alice heard Thea's explanation, and everything just now was figured out, some admired him, and some sympathized, it was really admirable to be able to atone for his sins in such a way as ****.

Shaffer, who was sitting next to him, didn't know that the person who had just ignored him had such an experience, and he still had some complaints and anger about this matter, but Alice kept stopping him, so he could only give up, but next time he saw it alone, he had already made up his mind that he must let the other party taste the bitterness.
