Chapter 18 Birthday Banquet (2)

Xue Jing snorted coldly and said: "This is my boyfriend, Nian Bing, a senior fire magician. He has just returned from traveling outside. Of course you haven't seen him before. I'm sorry, Mrs. Meiya, we have to go in first.

Rou'er is still waiting for me." After saying that, he pulled Nian Bing and walked inside quickly, ignoring Mrs. Meiya again.

As soon as Mrs. Meiya's eyes fell on Nian Bing's face, she never moved away. There was a look of intoxication in her eyes, her lips moved, and she whispered something to Nian Bing. Nian Bing didn't even dare to listen, and immediately lowered his head.

He and Xuejing walked into the hall. It was better to stay away from such a disgusting old woman.

"Jing'er, who was that person just now? It felt so weird!" Nian Bing couldn't help but said to Xue Jing.

"Weird? What's weird? She was a social butterfly when she was young. Later, she finally got married to a viscount. After getting married, she discovered that the viscount's family had already declined, and her family situation was not good. Within a few years,

, the Viscount fell ill and passed away, but she had no intention of restraining herself and started her life as a courtesan again for decades. Haven't you seen that there is so much powder on her face? In order to cover up the wrinkles on her face,

Her real age is probably over fifty, and it makes people sick just looking at her."

Nian Bing smiled slightly, leaned into Xue Jing's ear and said, "I feel the same."

The heat in her ears made Xue Jing feel a little itchy. She subconsciously shrank her neck. She was about to question Nian Bing, but she remembered where she was now. She just glared at him and took back her words. "Nian Bing is fine."

As if he didn't notice, he smiled slightly, straightened his back and looked around. The surrounding environment was really good. The entire hall was over a thousand square meters. There were about a hundred guests who had already arrived, chatting in groups.

What were they wearing? Looking at their outfits, they were obviously either rich or noble. The whole hall was filled with the smell of powder.

"Nian Bing, you can stay alone for a while and eat something. If someone talks to you, you'd better not answer and just look arrogant. I'm going to find Rou'er. She has her birthday today after all.

." As she said that, she pointed to the empty sofa on the side to Nian Bing, and then walked up the stairs on the side.

Nian Bing walked to the sofa and sat down. He picked up a drink and drank it slowly. This kind of social situation was not what he liked. He just observed these people calmly. He placed the Mars staff in his hand on the table in front of him.

He didn't pay too much attention to this kind of gold-level magic weapon.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the guard shouting: "Magician's Guild, Miss Long Ling, Master Ninth Master is here."

They were coming. Although Nian Bing had already guessed that they would come, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous at this time. He quickly picked up the staff on the table and stood up, then walked to a relatively dark corner and stood aside.

Today, Long Ling did not wear a magic robe, but wore a purple dress. The dress matched her very well and brought out her elegant and gentle character. When she walked into the hall, it was like there was an extra purple elf. Long

Ling's popularity is obviously much better than that of Xue Jing. When Xue Jing came in just now, most people just looked at her and continued chatting about themselves. Only a few people took the initiative to say hello to her. But Long Ling was different.

As soon as she walked in, she became the center of attention. Almost everyone took the initiative to say hello to her. It felt like she was the owner of this place.

Nian Bing smiled slightly, and there was a faint light in Nian Bing's eyes. He knew that in this case, it was impossible for Long Ling to find him. He was also very happy. He wanted to see today, this so-called upper-class noble banquet, there are all

What tricks.

Shi Jiu was still wearing his magic robe. Although there was no identity mark on it, no one present doubted his strength. Although Shi Jiu was not as handsome as Nian Bing, it made sense. For a moment,

The two completely became the focus of the scene.

At this moment, Nian Bing discovered a stranger who was the same as himself. Since they were the only two who did not come forward to greet Long Ling and Shi Jiu, they easily found each other. It was a young man.

His figure is similar to that of Nian Bing, but he looks stronger. He looks very straight in a pair of well-fitting white clothes. His resolute face is as sharp as a knife, although it cannot be said to be very handsome, but it exudes a strong masculine atmosphere. A pair of black

His eyes, coupled with his long black hair, looked a little cold. He held a knife in his hand. The knife was very short and felt like it was no longer than his own morning dew. The scabbard was also white, so he could bring the knife here.

Obviously, this man's identity is very unusual. Suddenly, Nian Bing had an idea in his mind, this man could not be the cool guy that Xue Jing likes.

Soon, Nian Bing confirmed his idea. In the hall, only this person could match Xue Jing's original description. Something strange happened to Nian Bing. The man actually walked towards him. He

Although he didn't walk fast, the hall only had such a small space, and he arrived in front of Nian Bing in almost a few steps.

"Hello, my name is Yan Feng."

Nian Bing was stunned for a moment. According to Xue Jing's description, he should be very cold and not close to humans and animals! How could he take the initiative to say hello to himself? Although he thought so in his mind, he was not rude and stretched out his hand to shake his hand.

Said: "Hello, I am Nian Bing."

Letting go of his hand, Yan Feng walked to Nian Bing and stood down. He raised his little finger slightly and naturally lifted a lock of black hair hanging in front of his forehead, tucking it behind his ear. His too-dark eyes were full of joy.

With an indescribable brilliance, he stared at Nian Bing quietly. After a long time, a faint smile appeared on his lips, "It seems that I have never seen you before."

Looking at the tall and cold Yan Feng, Nian Bing suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. Although he couldn't tell what this feeling was, he felt something was wrong. "I came to Ice and Snow City not long ago and just joined the Magician.

Union, that’s why you haven’t seen me before. It seems that you often participate in such social activities.”

Yan Feng's eyes still fell on Nian Bing's face, and he said coldly: "It's not often, just occasionally. I hate those women who are like flies."

Nian Bing thought to himself, there must be something wrong with this guy's brain, why are he pretending to be cool? He smiled and nodded to Yan Feng, and stopped talking to him. Yan Feng did not speak, and focused his gaze on the field.

Long Ling finally broke away from the crowd of people, said something to Shijiu, and ran upstairs. Obviously, she should have joined Xue Jing and Miss Rou'er. Long Ling's

After leaving, the atmosphere in the hall calmed down again. The nobles continued to chat about something. Shijiu also became one of them at this time. It can be seen from his ecstatic expression that the nobles must have a certain respect for him.

It's a compliment to Youjia. With his character, he probably doesn't even know his own surname under this kind of appreciation. Most of the nobles who came today are young, except of course the Mrs. Meiya from before.

The cold Yan Feng suddenly spoke again, "The Earl has appeared." Nian Bing followed his gaze and saw an old man in his fifties walking down from upstairs. The old man was wearing rich clothes and was tall.

Tall, it seems that the whole person is about the same horizontally as vertically, like a big meat ball. With the trembling of the fat all over his body, he went down the stairs. The stairs were obviously very strong. With his weight, he still didn't make a sound.

, Nian Bing thought to himself, he is indeed the chief financial officer of Ice and Snow City, and he must have a lot of delicious food in his stomach.

The appearance of the earl made the people who were chatting suddenly quiet, and their eyes fell on the stairs. The earl stopped halfway up the stairs, with a smile on his big fat face, "Welcome to the humble house, today

It's my daughter's eighteenth birthday, and it's also her adult day. Let's just eat, drink, and have fun, and treat this place as our own home. If there is any lack of hospitality, please forgive me. Let's continue.

, I think the little girl will be out soon." As soon as these words came out, there was a chorus of praises, and the fat on the count's face became tighter. He seemed to be very satisfied with this scene, and slowly walked down the stairs.

, holding a glass of wine in his hand, he came together with the young nobles and started chatting.

Seeing this scene, Nian Bing and Yan Feng both had the same expression on their faces, with their brows furrowed and full of disdain. The extravagant life of the nobles was indeed not what they liked.

"Brother Yan, how much do you know about this Earl?" Nian Bing asked subconsciously. He was not familiar with this place, and the only one who can answer his question now is Yan Feng.
