Chapter 136 Playing with Fire

Two days later, a banquet to celebrate Richard's promotion to level three wizard was also held at the venue provided by the Futong Chamber of Commerce.

As the protagonist of the banquet, Richard naturally couldn't sit idle.

At this moment, he was wearing an elegant suit, standing outside the banquet hall to greet today's guests. He looked high-spirited, and coupled with his handsome face, many female guests who came to celebrate stared at him.

But even if Richard didn't have Margaret, he wouldn't have had any good feelings towards these lustful female guests.

His face immediately became serious, and he politely invited them in.

Fortunately, Margaret, who was helping, also noticed the situation and took the initiative to come to Richard and put her arm around him. Only then did the female guests leave angrily and enter the banquet hall.

"I need you here too, otherwise it would be hard for me to handle so many women."

Richard wiped the sweat from his forehead. These female guests were all nobles from the town of Teet. Not only were they of noble status, they also influenced Margaret's business.

Margaret took out a handkerchief to wipe Richard's sweat, and said jokingly, "I don't think it's difficult to deal with."

"That is!"

Richard kissed Margaret on the cheek and said, "You are so beautiful, of course they feel ashamed of themselves, so they walked away."

Margaret blushed slightly when she heard Richard's praise, but she accepted it calmly.

After all, when it comes to appearance, Margaret is indeed the best of the bunch.

At this moment, Richard saw Cronin coming over with several of his wizard apprentices.

"Richard, I didn't expect you to be promoted to a third-level wizard so quickly. You are truly talented!"

Cronin handed over the gift, and then introduced to Richard several wizard apprentices behind him.

The fact that these wizard apprentices have fallen into the situation of worshipping Cronin as their master shows that their magical talent is average. Although Richard feels that these wizard apprentices will have little interaction with him in the future, he still nodded to them one by one. Maybe one of them will become a formal wizard!

However, given their magical talents, they are more likely to remain at the wizard apprentice stage for their entire lives.

The only person who caught Richard's attention was a little girl named Winnie, who was a civilian child living in the town of Teet. Her talent was the best among Cronin's wizard apprentices, and she seemed very excited. It was estimated that if anyone among these wizard apprentices could become a formal wizard, it would be her.

Richard didn't care. Even if he was an official wizard, his interactions with him would become less and less in the future. Cronin himself hadn't seen him for several months.

Richard walked into the banquet hall with Cronin and several of his wizard apprentices.

When he came out again, he happened to see Helena, another director of the Fortis Chamber of Commerce, talking to Margaret. After seeing Richard, she smiled and walked into the banquet hall.

Richard didn't care. Although Helena and Margaret were both directors of the Fortis Chamber of Commerce, there was a subtle competitive relationship between them.

People in the branch are happy to see this kind of relationship until it affects the business of the Futong Chamber of Commerce.

Next, according to Richard's plan, he will have a competition with Helena!

So, Richard didn't say much to Helena today.

Seeing that most of the guests had arrived, Richard took Margaret into the banquet hall.

The banquet in the wizarding world was relatively relaxed. Although the host, Richard, was not there, the nobles had already started drinking during this period of time.

After seeing Richard, these nobles did not rush over to talk to him.

Instead, they toasted Richard in order of their status.

The first person to toast Richard was Viscount Fast, the lord of the town of Tit. Richard looked at Fast with a smile in front of him, clinked his glass with him, and took a sip of the expensive wine.

"Congratulations, Richard."

"Thank you!"

Fast had tricked Richard before, and although the ending was good in the end, Richard was a vengeful person and he just didn't find the opportunity to take revenge.

But this time, Richard is going to help Margaret and Helena fight, and the Gad Chamber of Commerce should not be able to survive! It can also be regarded as collecting some interest.

More than half a year ago, Richard was also toasted by Fast at a cocktail party, but at that time, Richard was just a marginal figure in the town of Teeter. Now, Richard, who has been promoted to a third-level wizard, is not far from becoming a fourth-level wizard in the eyes of everyone.

Therefore, Richard also became the protagonist of today's banquet.

Richard did not drink much like last time. After all, there were many nobles present. Although Richard had a strong physique, his alcohol tolerance was very poor. Richard did not know how much he had to drink to get drunk.

Afterwards, Richard and Margaret accepted toasts from the nobles present.

Doing so is also an obvious signal to the nobles.

Richard and Margaret are going to be a couple.

Both Richard and Margaret were very outstanding in appearance, and there were many nobles present who were interested in both of them, and some were even interested in both of them at the same time.

However, the official announcement of Richard and Margaret has made these nobles give up their ideas.

Not to mention that their looks cannot compare to these two people, even in terms of power, one is a wizard with outstanding talent, who became a third-level wizard at a young age, and the other is the director of the Futong Chamber of Commerce and a member of the Jones family. He even reached a contract with the Red Flag Army at a critical moment and blocked the rise of the Gad Chamber of Commerce.

These two people made everyone else present feel that they were a perfect match.

After the banquet, Richard got drunk as expected.

Although Richard only drank one sip each time, there were quite a few nobles present, and Richard drank three or four bottles of wine in total. Moreover, Richard kept drinking and did not even eat a bite of food.

Thanks to his strong physique, Richard only felt a little dizzy and returned to his residence with the help of Margaret.

With the help of Margaret and two maids, Richard took a bath and returned to the bedroom to rest.

When Richard woke up the next day, he only saw Margaret lying beside his bed. She was really exhausted from taking care of the drunk Richard yesterday.

So he didn't leave, but stayed in Richard's bedroom. After all, with their current relationship, sleeping together was no big deal.

Richard kissed Margaret on the face. Margaret was sleeping lightly and woke up immediately. When she saw Richard, she closed her eyes and arched her body into Richard's arms, making herself completely pressed against Richard.

In this regard, Li·Badao President·Cha can only say a classic quote.

"Woman, you are playing with fire!"

As he spoke, the excited Richard pressed on Margaret...

However, Margaret's health did not allow Richard to be attentive, and he had to be careful with every move...
