Chapter 98 In the Feast
The figure in the dark was originally playing at the corners of his mouth, gently shaking the wine in the glass, as if the lively scenes around him had nothing to do with him. At this time, he heard the whisper of the noble youth but suddenly stopped his movements, and the smile at the corners of his mouth gradually disappeared and became indifferent.
He put down the cup in his hand and gently knocked on the table with one hand, but did not make a sound, as if he was thinking about something. Seeing that he didn't say anything, the nobleman didn't dare to straighten up and still bent down to wait for the other party's instructions.
After a while, he finally asked faintly, "Did you come by yourself?"
"Well, it's not an adult, it's with a noble son..."
"Which family are you from?" His tone was lighter, but the coldness in his words made the bowing man tremble.
"I... I don't know..." The bowing nobleman replied tremblingly.
Huh? You said you didn't know? When you begged me to take you into the banquet, you said that you had information in your mind!"
"I..." The man thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, my lord, I can guarantee that I know almost all about the famous nobles in the empire and the children of their families. Even if there are some who may not be able to call their names directly, they will definitely be impressed, so that they can be checked. I know, but..."
"say! Forgive you for your innocence!" The person in the shadow waved impatiently.
"Uh, yes. But I don't have any impression of the one I just saw, which only shows two problems... The first is that the brain is really broken, leaving out such a person who can qualify to enter the banquet; the second is that this person is simply a small local viscount or baron, and it may even be... He It's not an aristocrat at all..."
"Oh? Is there such an interesting thing..." The man smiled and then slowly stood up. Finally, the shadow could not cover his face again. It can be seen clearly under the light. His serious square face, with a trace of military power, but a little viciousness and frivolity flashed in his eyes. It was the excellent officer of the martial arts hall, the son of the marshal, Lu Di...
......
......
"Hey, isn't this Garlin from the Wogold Chamber of Commerce?" A slightly tender male voice sounded.
Agaline and Lance turned around. I saw a noble man who was very fashionable and good-looking came over. It's just that the way he walks is not like other noble children. The style of martial arts in the empire is very strong, so even some playboys like to pretend to walk calmly and powerfully at the reception. But the one who came in front of him did the opposite, and he came over with a gentle step...
"Oh! Caroline, you are so beautiful today. The old man raised his fingers and pointed to Ai Jialin and whispered.
"Puff..." When she heard the other party's words, Ai Jialin suddenly laughed, and did not seem to be shy when she was praised by Lance; nor did she show that courtesy smile when she was praised by ordinary friends; nor did she smile when she was praised by annoying flies, although she was extremely helpless in her mouth. She just suddenly laughed happily: "Cluck... Is it really beautiful? Thank you for your praise..."
Seeing her appearance, Lance was a little puzzled. Although the prince's voice was not particularly magnetic, but a little sharp, and the action just now was also slightly strange, he still couldn't figure out why Ai Jialin, who had always been steady, suddenly laughed.
It seemed that it was not appropriate to laugh here. Ai Jialin quickly stopped laughing and then smiled at the prince's apology. I'm sorry, Si Zhuang Deyan, I'm rude to introduce it to you.
As she spoke, she pointed to Lance beside her and said, "This is the second young master of the Warner family, Lantis."
Then he said to Lance, "This is a large meat shop in the east of the empire, the young master of the House of Warcraft, and Master Si Zhuangdeyan."
"Hello, nice to meet you." Lance put his left hand on his right chest and bowed slightly to the person in front of him, doing a standard aristocratic etiquette.
"Warner family! I have been looking forward to it for a long time." Si Zhuangde said politely, and then made an aristocratic salute to Lance. After the ceremony, he raised his head and looked at Lance's heartfelt admiration, "Oh, Master Lantis, you are really handsome. I have rarely seen such a handsome man like you..."
"Huh?" Lance is very clear that the aristocratic men do not praise each other so much, and the expression of the other party does not seem to be fake, but that such a sentence comes out from the heart, which is much more sincere than what he said when he praised Ai Jialin just said.
Looking at the other party staring at his eyes, Langston felt a little cool on his back, and finally vaguely guessed the reason why Ai Jialin laughed after being praised for her beauty just now.
"Hmm, let me tell you that Szhuang Deyan, Lantis is my male companion. You'd better not think about him." Ai Jialin pouted and said.
'I'm really like this...' I couldn't help swearing in Lance's heart when she heard Agaline's sudden sound and recuperation.
"Ai Jialin, you can't do this. I just came here. Won't you let me talk to Master Lantis?" Si Zhuangde said sternly. The verbal action made De Lance shiver.
"Uh, well, did you come to the imperial capital by yourself this time?" It seems that the family relationship between the two sides is good, and it is not easy for Ai Jialin to drive each other away directly, so she has to change the topic.
"I'm here with my father. He is having a meeting with other elders now. Who will attend the Wojind Chamber of Commerce this time? Will your father Lord Wokind come today?
"My father has been a little unwell recently. This time, the vice president came to represent the Chamber of Commerce." Ai Jialin explained.
When Lance heard the dialogue between the two, he noticed that the surrounding scenes were really like this. Most of them were young people, and there were many young ladies or young women, but none of their men and the elders of these young people in the audience had never appeared. It turned out that they were holding an important meeting.
"Ah, that's it... Then bring him a good one for me. There is still some time before the end of their conference. We can have fun in the banquet hall for a while, otherwise we won't have such a lively atmosphere after waiting for those old antiques to come. Si Zhuang Deyan didn't know what he thought of, so he rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
As he spoke, suddenly a low voice sounded, interrupting several people's conversation.
"Agaline, it turns out that you have come." A tall and powerful young man came over steadily, with indifferent eyes and a rampantness that was not easy to detect everything.
Ai Jialin, a man who suddenly came by, was slightly stunned, and then quickly recovered and made an aristocratic salute to the other party. I have met General Ludi.
The visitor also returned a very standard aristocratic etiquette to Ai Jialin, and then straightened up and looked at Ai Jialin and said faintly, "Although it is a little presumptuous, I still want to ask if I am lucky enough to invite Miss Ai Jialin to be my female companion?"
"I'm very sorry, General Ludi, I already have a male companion." Agaline stretched out her left hand and gently pulled the sleeve of Lance beside her.
Seeing her movements, the corners of Ludi's eyes couldn't help moving, but the expression on his face did not change at all. He followed Ai Jialin's movements and 'suddenly saw' Lance standing beside Ai Jialin. The noble son who followed him just now secretly reported that the nobleman beside Ai Jialin was probably just an extremely unknown little nobleman or a fake at all. What method was taken by Ai Jialin? When he entered the venue and wanted to muddle through, he was furious. Thinking of this, he directly came to humiliate Ai Jialin's so-called 'male companion' on the spot. Whether it was a poor little nobleman or a fake, if he dared to step in this matter, he must pay a painful price...
However, when staring at Lance, I found that the other party was not only handsome, but also extremely calm and posture, quite popular... Although he was a little angry in his heart, his noble brother did not report the information completely just now, but he was still not slow at all, according to the plan that had been set in his heart.
said faintly, "Oh? Is this your male partner? He shook his head contemptuously: "It's a little white face, but unfortunately, among the young dignitaries I know, there doesn't seem to be one person like you at all."
Before Lance spoke, Garlin couldn't stand it and said first, "General Ludi, this can only be said that you don't pay enough attention to the nobles in the empire. Young Master Lantis is from the Walla family.
"Oh? The Waller family? Lu Di was slightly stunned. He had heard the name of the family. It was really famous in the Storm City in the middle of the empire, but the family has always been low-key. In addition to the portrait of the head of the family in front of the world, the members of the family have always lived a simple life without causing trouble, so the information known by outsiders is also very limited. If the other party is the young master of the Warner family, then it is definitely not small...
Thinking of this, he glanced coldly at the nobleman's follower standing not far away, and the other party was suddenly sweating coldly when he saw it.
After punishing the unfavorable subordinates with his eyes, Lu Di continued to move his eyes back and looked at Lance standing opposite him with jealousy and thought to himself: Humph! What about the Warner family? Compared with my military god's house, it's stupid to come and rob women from me. It's really impatient to live. You must die ugly today...
