Chapter 160 The Youth Who Pursue Luxury

"As for Keti, what do you want to eat?"

Luolan, who was wearing a red and black dress, pulled Keti and walked into the restaurant. She looked at each counter for a while, looking at the freshly baked dishes, some of which were still steaming hot. The restaurant in the City Walled College was not like the one in the Central Campus. The menu is wide-ranging, but it leans towards some aristocratic cuisine, and the overall portion is slightly smaller, taking a refined route.

"Is that okay?" Keti raised her finger and pointed at a dish that was as light yellow as a boat.

Pineapple boat fruit salad? Luo Lan looked at the big pineapple cut in the middle and placed horizontally in the middle of the dish like a boat. The inside was filled with strawberries, lychees, bananas, and small pieces of mangosteen pulp, which was extremely colorful. I really don’t know where they found so many fruits with different seasons. Maybe they have some extraordinary preservation method.

"Okay, but you have to eat staple food and add some meat to make it balanced." Just eating fruit is not enough, the girl thought.

After a short walk around the restaurant, Lorraine Hill ordered a beef sausage pizza as a staple food for two people. In addition, Keti ordered a pineapple boat fruit salad, and she ordered a pan-fried rosemary lamb chop. .

Lorraine Hill and Keti brought pizza and pineapple boats to the tables at the edge of the restaurant. The tables and chairs against the wall of the restaurant are where students eat. They are separated by low wooden platforms. Each single room There is a table with 4-6 chairs.

The two of them ate some fruit first, and Luolan asked Keti to sit here temporarily while he went to pick up the rest of the mutton chops. Because the mutton chops were freshly made, it would take a while, and it should be almost ready by now.

The mutton on the iron plate was sizzling, and the roasted olive oil was added with rosemary particles and a small amount of pepper and salt. As the lamb chops were cooking, the alluring aroma emitted. After seeing Loren come back, the waiter took out Put a white porcelain plate aside, then pick up the lamb chops and place it on the plate, then put some prepared vegetables on it, and the pan-fried rosemary lamb chops are ready.

When Lorraine Hill picked up the plate and prepared to go back, he found a stranger coming to his table. He simply said hello to Keti and sat down directly.

Seeing this scene, Lorraine Hill couldn't help but speed up his pace. Fortunately, his perception was sharp and he could hear everything the other party said clearly, so he didn't worry too much.

"This beautiful young lady, this is Dana Auston, a third-year student at Walled City College. Nice to meet you." When he said the syllable Auston, he raised the syllable in a particularly unique way. Accent and charm.

Seeing that Keti was a little nervous and restrained, the young man in black and red clothes did not stop chattering.

"You may be a little surprised by my appearance, but in fact it is not an accident."

“I come to this restaurant every Wednesday afternoon because the crystal shrimp from Northern Hanjing Lake is sold at that time. I am somewhat picky about food, and the dishes made with this ingredient are among the few recipes I approve of. ....”

Immediately afterwards, the young man talked about his autumn trip to the south of the empire, describing how huge the cruise ship was at that time. It was a giant steel ship that no one had ever seen before. It was brightly lit and full of noble men and women from the empire. In While saying these words, he also 'inadvertently' revealed his walking stick and pocket watch, and 'occasionally' mentioned how exquisite the workmanship was and that the craftsmen were all inherited from famous masters with a long history.

Keti nodded while listening, which made Dana talk more and more excitedly, as if the beautiful lady in front of him was his number one fan, and she would lead him into a new and beautiful world.

"Hello." Luolan came over with mutton chops. She saw that Keti was very serious about what she heard, so she didn't want to interrupt suddenly. Instead, she waited for this person to finish speaking before coming over in time and put the dinner plate on her He stood in front of Keti, and then said to this talkative young man.

"I'm sorry, because we are not familiar with each other, could you please leave temporarily? My companion and I are going to have a meal now, and there are many free tables in the restaurant. You can sit at a table by yourself."

Generally speaking, Lorraine Hill wouldn't speak so directly, but this young man is obviously not a thin-skinned person. If he doesn't speak more directly, I'm afraid he will really refuse to leave.

"Hello, Oh~ How beautiful, like a rose under the bright moon."

"I'm Dana Oston. I'm glad to meet you. Coincidentally, I'm also a student of the Walled City College. I also practice the Demon Sequence. Although I'm not top-notch, I still have my own understanding. If you have time, If so, we can communicate more."

Looking at Lorraine Hill, who had a beautiful face and was indifferent to him, the young man first sighed at his beauty, and then thought about getting closer and chatting.

Lorraine Hill did not answer immediately, but first picked up a piece of mutton chop and put it on Keti's plate, and then told her to only eat the meat and not the bones.

Then he raised his head and looked at the young man carefully.

Dana Allston is not handsome, he can only be described as above average, but his clothes and decorations are obviously carefully taken care of and appear neat and fit. Although what he said is reasonable, in Lorraine Hill It seems that this is just a kind of imitation and worship.

Those luxurious experiences may be very attractive to a common girl who is not experienced in the world, but they have no great effect on her. She herself has been the eldest lady of the Chamber of Commerce for half a year and has seen a lot of good things, but among them Probably only the merchants themselves know how much moisture there is.

Just like the Cointreau that the Nisos family once sold to the Green Empire, it is described as an amber crystal liquid, and a bottle is said to be more expensive than the same volume of gold. But as Carites, who cooperated with the Nissos family Naturally everyone knows that these are just brewed from the oranges harvested that year, and the work and craftsmen are advertised as pure girls, but in fact they are just ordinary aunts hired to operate them.

Even if the production is more refined and a few more filtrations make it much clearer, the actual cost plus transportation loss will only be a few silver coins at most. But after selling it to the Green Empire, they dared to price 2-3 extraordinary gold coins for a bottle, making hundreds of times the profit. There is nothing more profitable than this.

After seeing this kind of thing clearly, Lorraine Hill is no longer interested in the so-called aristocratic elegance. Although he also likes exquisite and beautiful things, he will not sanctify them too much.

Furthermore, during the period when she was friends with Frocia, she rarely heard her friend mention the activities among the nobles. One time, she was slightly curious and asked Frocia, what is Frocia like? answered.

"What does Rocher think the aristocratic life is like? Although outsiders envy the luxury, in fact it is only enjoyed by most of the peripheral aristocrats. The truly powerful aristocrats are always scheming, and some of them want to be more powerful on the road to power. Furthermore, some want to obtain rare resources, some want to improve their family's title, and some want to gain more benefits."

"The closer you are to the center of the whirlpool of interests, the more intense the struggle will be. When the interests and rights are huge to a certain extent, even family ties will not be too strong."

"Therefore, those who live the happiest lives are the last sons of those noble families. Their parents love them and they don't have to bear too many responsibilities. Also, because they are young, there is no threat to their inheritance rights, and their brothers and sisters will not take it too seriously."

Putting away the memories in his mind for the time being, Lorraine Hill said to Dana Oston again.

"I'm sorry, could you please leave temporarily? My companion and I are going to have a meal here, and we are not used to being stared at by strangers all the time."

"This beautiful lady, you may have some misunderstanding about me. I came here just because of your companion..." Dana was about to start talking again. He felt that Keti must have liked it because she listened so carefully just now.

As long as he brings out the things he describes, the beautiful girl will be embarrassed to drive him away. After all, girls are reserved.

"I don't know you. If Luo Lan asked you to leave, why didn't you obey? Are you a bad person?" Keti's voice sounded.

Keti only listens to a few witches, because these people have the same kind of aura, but for strangers, she only sees simple good people and bad people. If Dana doesn't listen to Roland, then he must be a bad person.

Chris confessed that she had to protect Lorraine and not let bad guys get close to her. If bad guys attacked, she would burn her with fire.

Based on simple logic, Jean Keti began to be wary of this 'bad guy'. With the surge of magic power, a trace of fire appeared in his pupils. Dana, who was stared at, felt that his soul was boiling and burning silently.

At the advanced level of Sequence 5, he did not have the strengthening and fusion of the extraordinary core, and his soul was not strong. At this moment, he felt a burning pain like a burning fire. The severe pain made him unable to shout, and he fainted in an instant, and his whole body passed out.

Beside the table.

Suffered.
