Chapter 21 Banquet
Three days off. After Fei Lin left the Deputy Bureau's office, he got into the carriage that the Security Bureau had arranged for him and returned to his residence.
Halfway through, he couldn't help but change his mind.
"Turn around to Guinia Street."
Guiniao Street is the street where his sister Rowling lives. Taking advantage of the rest, he decided to visit her sister.
"Okay, sir."
The coachman Ken Darby turned the direction of the carriage and headed towards Guiniao Street.
Stopped at a high-end pastry shop called "Happy House" on the way, and after buying some delicate pastries, Fei Lin appeared outside her sister Rowling's residence and rang the doorbell.
"Madam, little Kai'Sa, here comes Mr. Flynn."
After seeing that it was Fei Lin, the little maid opened the door for Fei Lin and shouted loudly.
After a while, a young woman wearing a long home dress and a little girl like a doll about four years old appeared, it was her sister Rowling and her niece Kaisha.
As for brother-in-law, he should still be at work at this time.
"How did you come?"
Seeing Fei Lin coming, Rowling had a smile on her face.
"I'm off today, so come over to eat."
Felin smiled.
At this moment, he found that his pants had been torn.
looked down, and saw little Kaisha calling him "uncle", seeing the little joy on his face, and reaching out to him, obviously wanting to hug him.
"This is the pastry I bought at the Happy House when I came here."
Handed the paper bag containing the cakes to his sister, Fei Lin bent down and hugged Little Kai'Sa.
"Come on, why don't you still buy things, and it's still the pastries of Happy House, where the pastries are too expensive."
took the paper bag, Rowling complained a little.
"It's alright, your brother and my salary now is that you can afford to eat the pastries from the Happy House every day."
Felin smiled.
He knew that his sister and little Kaisha liked the cakes of the Happy House, and the cakes of the Happy House were indeed delicious, not inferior to some popular cakes in the previous life.
"That's not how you spend your money. When you marry a wife in the future, why don't you use money?"
Rowling "Lessons" said.
After having lunch, I played with little Kai'Sa for a while. It is estimated that when my brother-in-law is about to come back, Fei Lin is ready to leave.
Although the relationship with his brother-in-law has eased, he is still uncomfortable with his brother-in-law around, so he decides to leave before his brother-in-law returns.
"I'm going back now, will I go back after dinner?"
Rowling insisted.
"No, I still lack some furniture at home. I'm going to buy some furniture on the way back. If it's too late, the furniture store will be closed."
Feeling made an excuse, and he did have the idea of ??adding some furniture. The house he lives in is a bit big now, and the furniture he moved in is not enough.
"OK then."
Rowling had no choice but to give up retaining and send Fei Lin out of the hospital all the way.
"Felin, you are here, are you ready to go?"
At this moment, a carriage stopped, and on top of the carriage, brother-in-law Claude Del Rey stepped down.
When I saw Fei Lin, he was different from the indifference he used to have, with enthusiasm on his face.
Felin now not only works at Daweide Auction House, but his salary is much higher than him. He wants to repair the estranged relationship between them.
"Well, I came here this morning, and I'm going back."
Felin nodded, and was ready to board the carriage.
"Don't, Fei Lin don't go first, there is a very rare banquet tonight, wait for you to join us for this banquet."
Claude stopped Fehling enthusiastically.
"Isn't that appropriate?"
Fehling didn’t want to accompany Claude to any banquet, so he shied away as inappropriate.
"This banquet is a party for making friends. It is allowed to bring people, it is better to encourage people to bring people."
"Furthermore, this party will be attended by many young women from famous families. It is an opportunity for you to make friends with outstanding peers of the same age."
Claude said with a wink.
"No, wait, I have something to do—"
Felin refused. If he was still an appraiser, he would not mind expanding his business. As for now, there is no need for this.
However, before he could finish speaking, someone grabbed his shoulder.
"Leave me in the back row for everything else. You must go to this banquet with us tonight."
Rowling reached out and grabbed Fei Lin's shoulder, and said with a strong attitude that did not allow any room for negotiation.
If it’s an ordinary banquet, it’s fine. This time, the banquet is a party for making friends, and there will be many young women from famous families participating, so you can’t miss it.
Before she was still worried about Fei Lin's marriage, she could just use this banquet to find a suitable marriage partner for Fei Lin.
Facing the tough elder sister Rowling, Fei Lin couldn't refuse, but he still went back and changed into a long black dress.
…
Freeman Villa is located in the East District of Conston City, where nobles and rich people gather. Even among the many villas in the East District, the luxury is enough to rank first.
The owner of the villa, Wilton Freeman, is the mayor of Constantine City, and he is also a noble earl who is very popular in the kingdom.
In the evening, one after another private carriages drove into the Freeman Villa, with beautiful shapes and various styles, just like a large carriage show.
From a carriage that could only be regarded as an ordinary carriage among the many carriages, the three of Fehling, Rowling, and Claude in dresses stepped down and entered the banquet hall.
The huge banquet hall is paved with red carpets. Because of the underfloor heating, it is very warm inside.
There is a long dining table at intervals, on which a variety of exquisite food and red wine are placed.
Many costumed people shuttled between them, old friends reminiscing about old times and strangers making friends with each other.
Among them, there are many young women. As Claude said, many young women from famous families attended this banquet.
"My dear, I'm going to start an investigation, so I won't accompany you to greet your friends."
Came here, Rowling's eyes lit up, left Claude, mixed into the wives and began to inquire about the news of the young women.
Flynn went to the dining table, took some food from a plate, and ate it on his own.
Because of the reason I came to the banquet, I haven't had time to eat dinner yet.
However, his leisure time did not last long. Rowling, who had already collected information, appeared and began to introduce him to the noteworthy young women in the banquet.
"The one in the ruffled dress is called Sharon Murphy. She is the third daughter of Baron Murphy's family. She has a good family background, but she looks a little ordinary..."
"The one in the white dress is called Veresa Nuotai, her father is the executive of Fengsen Company, and she looks pretty, but it's a pity that her family background is a little worse..."
"The one in the pink dress is called Mina Suvari, the son of a wealthy businessman, and the family runs tea. Whether it's family background or appearance, it's the best choice and can be used as a target..."
…
Beside Fehlin, Rowling rambled.
Fei Lin really admired her intelligence gathering ability, so much information has been inquired in such a short time.
Suddenly, Fei Lin noticed a figure.
This is a young woman with blue hair and a beige luxurious dress with exquisite workmanship. She has a beautiful face, but her face is a little cold.
The reason why he noticed this figure was because it was a person he knew, and it was Ivy who had just met this morning.
"Brother, this level is too high for you to win." 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
Noticing Fei Lin's gaze, Rowling looked over and shook her head to persuade.
"You know her identity?"
Felin asked curiously.
From the ring that was worth at least several thousand gold pounds, one could guess that Ivy's identity was not easy.
"Ivy Freeman, the second daughter of Earl Wilton, the organizer of this banquet, and Earl Wilton is very fond of her."
"I heard that Earl Wilton held this banquet because she was in a bad mood recently and wanted her to make some new friends."
After a pause, Rowling spoke earnestly.
"Although I also want you to find a noble daughter as your marriage partner, even if you are married."
"But this level is too high. Not only is she extremely beautiful, but she is also the daughter of an earl, which is really not something that a family like us can afford."
"Don't worry, I don't have any thoughts on that."
Looking at his nervous sister, Fei Lin shook his head.
Although I have guessed that Ivy is likely to be the daughter of a noble, with a very high status, but I did not expect it to be so high that she is actually the daughter of Earl Wilton, who is also famous among the counts.
At the same time, a doubt arises. It stands to reason that in the identity of the other party, there is no need to join the Kingdom Security Bureau. Why did the other party join the Kingdom Security Bureau?
"That's fine, that's fine."
Rowling breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really a little afraid that her brother would pursue his pursuit recklessly, and the result would only be a **** blow to the head and a deep injury.
Sudden.
I don't know if I felt the gaze, but Ivy's gaze suddenly turned towards this side, just in line with Fei Lin's gaze, Fei Lin didn't have time to look back.
Fehling was in a dilemma.
If he didn't meet Ivy's eyes, he could completely pretend that he didn't see Ivy.
But now that we have seen each other, as people who know each other, in such banquet occasions, greeting each other is the most basic etiquette.
hesitated for a while, thinking about what he heard about Ivy this morning, he stepped out and walked towards Ivy.
"Hey... Flynn, what are you doing?"
Just breathed a sigh of relief, when Rowling saw Fei Lin's actions, she couldn't help but get angry. Fei Lin didn't seem to have listened to her own advice at all.
She stepped forward quickly and wanted to pull Fei Lin back, but at this time Fei Lin had already walked up to Ivy, so she had to give up pulling Fei Lin away, and was ready to choose to adapt.
"Miss Ivy."
Flynn said hello.
"Um."
Ivy's face didn't change, but she still responded to Fei Lin's greeting just like this morning.
noticed Rowling walking beside Fei Lin, she asked politely.
"Who is this?"
"This is my sister Rowling Del Rey."
Felin introduced.
It is a tradition to change surnames after marriage, so my sister's surname is now Dele, which is the same as her brother-in-law.
