Chapter 11 Dinner and Girls

116 Face Street

The entrance to the Karl family mansion.

Li Si, who was wearing a black evening gown, got off the carriage. The waiters on the side rushed to greet him and led Li Si to the main banquet hall. Bender and the carriage were arranged to rest somewhere else.

Li Si loosened the elastic neckline. He was still not used to such a complicated dress.

Following the waiter into the banquet hall, the venue of hundreds of square meters was extremely luxurious. Countless huge magic crystal lamps made of polished crystal clear crystals hung directly above the hall, exuding a soft light, and the dining tables beside The fragrant food and fine wines have been placed for guests to take, and some guests are already mingling with each other holding wine glasses.

The Karl family is worthy of being the actual controller of the Golden Vine Flower Chamber of Commerce, which ranks among the top five in the Kingdom of Fes. It has enough strength to "purchase" the baronetcy from the kingdom, and the mansion they purchased in the noble area is also quite luxurious. This shows that the Karl family Strong financial resources.

Li Si looked at the guests in gorgeous dresses scattered around the dance floor with great interest. Because his predecessor rarely attended similar parties, so even though these were supposed to be gentlemen and ladies from the upper class of Fes City, they all looked strange to him and he was not familiar with them. face.

At this moment, Maura Karl, who had just followed her father to deal with an Earl, happened to see Lis, who was a bit maverick not far away. Her eyes lit up, and she quickly informed her father and walked towards Lis.

"You guy, why didn't you come to me when you came? Are you really our noble Viscount? Just stay there alone and don't talk to anyone else."

Li Si shrugged: "You know, I basically never attend such parties. I don't know these people, how can we possibly chat? I saw you were talking to that old man just now, so I didn't look for you."

"What's that old man? That's His Excellency Count Dion Duval, the Kingdom's Finance Minister!"

Maura looked at Li Si speechlessly. She really didn't expect that he didn't even know this person, so she simply pulled Li Si to introduce him to the distinguished guests around him.

"This is Arson Hard, the youngest son of Duke Hard's family. I heard that he is very much appreciated by His Majesty the King recently."

"The person talking to my father over there is Monte Olaya, the president of the Olaya Chamber of Commerce. The Olaya Chamber of Commerce is no worse than my family's chamber of commerce, but we have a very good relationship with my father."

"That's Mrs. Pasha Coy, a famous socialite in Bright Light City. You have to be careful not to be fascinated by her!"

Maura secretly pointed at the lady in a purple fringed dress not far away who was chatting with several men with a smile on her face, and looked at Li Si with a raised look.

Li Si heard this and looked at it carefully. Hey, he was indeed very capable. He looked at it carefully with an academic eye and came to the conclusion that it was indeed a real material. He was worthy of being a famous social butterfly. I learned it!

For the first time, Maura had an academic exchange with Li Si with deep sympathy, and both parties gained a unified understanding.

"You guys, haven't you already done on-the-spot inspections?" Li Si looked at his friend with gleaming eyes with suspicion.

"I'm just appreciating art, okay? She's almost old enough to be my mother!"

When questioned, Maura almost jumped up and swore to prove her innocence, although in Li Si's eyes, this person was almost black from the inside out.

"I won't tell you anymore." Seeing her father waving to her, Maura seemed to have another distinguished guest to greet, so she hurriedly walked over, "I'll come back to you later, don't sneak away!"

After all, it was Maura's birthday dinner. Although most people came here to communicate with each other and communicate with each other, as the host, he still couldn't be absent from the scene for too long.

Li Si felt quite at ease. Even if he wasn't familiar with the other guests, no one would bother him.

While Li Si listened to Moura's father, Wim Karl, leading him to thank all the guests at the banquet and talk about the scene, he walked to the long table, picked up the dinner plate and started choosing delicious food.

Grilled lamb chops, braised snails in vanilla sauce, beef tenderloin with foie gras in oil, Berdych sweet shrimp salad, cheese and ham chicken chop, hazelnut caramel cake, shredded coconut cherry pie

Li Si selected a large plate of delicious food with satisfaction. Ignoring the surprised looks from the waiters, he walked to the corner of the banquet hall and sat down, enjoying the delicious food.

It is worthy of being one of the five major chambers of commerce in the kingdom. You must know that the Berdych sweet shrimp only lives in a few areas of the eastern coastal kingdom of Berdych in the Fanor continent. Such a fresh taste is really rare. I don’t know how it came from the sea thousands of miles away. Transported to the inland Kingdom of Fes.

In the previous game, I had never seen it in the Kingdom of Fes. It was only during a mission that I went to Boddy to eat this kind of food. It was indeed fresh and chewy, the best among seafood.

"Dang~"

Just as Li Si was enjoying the food, a dinner plate was placed on the table next to him. Li Si glanced at it, good guy, there is more than he pretends to be!

The two lamb chops were stuffed with various foods, and two hazelnut cakes were placed at the end. The crumbling look made people a little worried.

Just when Li Si's attention was focused on the "tower" of the dinner plate, a figure appeared from behind the dinner plate and sat on a chair to the side.

Li Si took a look at this guy who did not socialize with others on the dance floor like other guests, but instead huddled in the corner with a plate and enjoyed the food like himself.

Wearing a fiery red strapless evening dress, her long black hair was simply spread around her waist. The well-tailored design outlined the girl's perfect curves. The layered hollow patterns and delicate tassels set off the fair skin. The girl's appearance was somewhat... He is ordinary, but his gray-purple eyes are very agile and lively.

The girl looked at Li Si curiously, and she didn't seem to expect to meet a cook who was as "different" as herself. She smiled softly at Li Si and began to enjoy the delicious food in front of her.

Although Li Si felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, he didn't care. After all, he might have seen this person in the game in his previous life!

Immediately, the two began to charge towards the "two mountains" in front of them. Although they did not stop, their etiquette on the table was impeccable, and the food on the table continued to decrease at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Li Si was obviously the first to start, but the two of them finished the food in front of them almost at the same time.

"Squeak~"

The chairs were pushed away, and the two of them stood up at the same time, preparing to go to the dining table to replenish their stocks.

"Pfft~"

A silver bell-like laughter sounded in Li Si's ears. When he turned around, the girl chuckled and looked at him with curious eyes.

"You're such a weird person. Don't most people come to such a party to get to know the dignitaries? Why are you hiding here to eat?"

Li Si looked at the dinner plate in the girl's hand and said speechlessly:

"Aren't you the same? I'm too lazy to compliment each other with those people."

"I'm different!" The girl waved her hand, "I came here with my friends to gain some knowledge and eat some delicious food. I heard that the Golden Vine Flower Merchant Association specially arranged a caravan to go to Berdych in the east for purchasing for this party. There are a lot of precious ingredients, and I don’t want to miss them.”

The girl's words were quite normal at first, but her subsequent words revealed the fact that she was a foodie.

"That's right. The Berdych Sweet Shrimp Salad is good. I'm going to have some more."

When she talked about food, the girl's eyes even lit up:

"That's right, that's right. It's awesome. You can't even buy it if you have money!"

Li Si also came to chat:

“But I think the Berdych sweet shrimp should taste better when made with golden shrimp balls.”

The girl was a little surprised:

"Golden shrimp balls, what is that? Is it a dish? I didn't see that you can cook?"

"Of course!" Li Si, who grew up in an orphanage in his previous life, developed good cooking skills.

Hehe, I hope everyone can read it, Crab
