The imperial city wasn't exactly cold during the winter, but because of the high location of the royal ball, the wind blowing from the balcony was still sharp.

If it was daytime, Lin Ke and Xue'er would definitely be able to see the vast expanse of the yellow prairie outside the imperial city as well as many long snake-like black lines leading to the imperial city.

Xue'er shrugged her shoulders.

"Let's go, I'm really awake," Rinkey smiled back at her. He probably said too much, not that he didn't trust her, but so what if he told those people who loved you all those weird things?

"Well, you're not going to drink with those women again, are you? I think a few words would be enough," Xue'er advised.

"Alright, I'll listen to you," Link nodded before looking at the reception hall. "Nicole has been dealing with this for a long time. If we don't go back now, she won't be able to handle it."

"How's Cohen?" "Everything all right, huh?" When Tony walked out onto the balcony to look at him, Cohen felt a little warm inside. The standard aristocrats would do too many useless things and would really care too little about others.

"No problem. Although I'm a weak spellcaster, I'm still from a military family right?" Linke's casual joke made Tony laugh.

"Those women should have settled it by now, right? I think that they and Nicole can really chat, even if it's just these women and their sisters, they will be enough for your company to survive. If your clothing is really that unique, then you will probably have a lot of customers, in fact, I really admire your idea. The next time I go back to my family, I'll have to tell my family about it, "Tony said as he walked back to the store with Lin Ke and the rest.

"How could that be? My brothers coming to the party was definitely a great honor, and I'm not that stupid." The entire hall was filled with a faint aroma of alcohol, but Lin Ke was actually a little disgusted by this smell. He was not a drinker, so he asked, "Is brother Tony returning to Ku'Se tomorrow?"

"That's right," Tony said with a sigh, "Cohen listened to my advice and took advantage of first and second grade to go out and take a look, if not you wouldn't have a lot of time to relax by the time you reach the third grade. This world is so big, and the places my brother has actually been to are too few.

"Well," Rincewind mused, if there was any free time in the first and second grades, it would be vacation time.

"Cohen!"

"Cohen?"

The two girls' voices sounded at the same time. The few of them turned around and saw two young and pretty girls dressed up. One had light green hair, while the other was wearing a red evening dress.

"Hilda? "Oliver," Link said to them. He wasn't surprised to see Oliver at the Roderick party, but Hilda, who was very close to her, could tell that she was a member of the military aristocracy. "Nice to meet you here," he said.

"Why are you here too? If I had known that you would come, I would have arrived earlier, "said the green-haired Hilda, who was an easygoing person. She ran to Linke's side when he called out to her, looking happy and not faking it." Hey, Snow, you look so beautiful today! "

"Thank you, Hilda, you're beautiful too," she said politely.

"Cohen, I wanted to invite you to come with me, but I was worried …" "It's good of you to come."

"Your family's party was quite successful. I didn't expect it to be so comfortable," Link said, smiling at Oliver and praising him. "Your clothes are beautiful today."

Oliver smiled. He was a bit disappointed.

"Hey, aren't my clothes beautiful?" "I custom-made this for tonight, so I spent a lot of money!"

"Of course it's also very pretty. Oh right, Hilda, I've partnered with others to set up a clothing company, I'll give you a jewel card one day, and when you're free, come to my place and buy clothes to take care of the business." Lin Ke and Hilda were quite familiar with each other, so they didn't have much hesitation when talking.

"To the sisters?" Hilda glanced at Link and curled her lips. "Sisters are fine, but aunts and aunts can all be recommended. I didn't expect you, Cohen, to be able to do business here. Eh?" "Tony?!"

"You've finally noticed me, Hilda," Tony said with a wry smile as he patted Linke on the shoulder. "You and them talk a lot. I'll meet some old friends over there. Oliver, you look beautiful tonight!"

"Thank you," Oliver said, bowing slightly, looking very different from what Link remembered of his table.

"That girl is senior Nicole?" the daughter of your company's partner? " He didn't know why, but when they met again at a gathering like this one, she was actually very relaxed. She no longer felt constrained like when she was at Lindke's villa, instead, she found the feeling of meeting for the first time to be somewhat sincere like how Lin Ke liked it. "No wonder she's so awesome. She's also beautiful and has a good figure, but how did she end up living in your villa?"

This time, I found a pretty good opportunity to invest in the clothing industry. It seems that Uncle Nicole and Uncle Lance's communication bridge between the academy and the Chamber of Commerce is very arduous, "he shrugged his shoulders," I've spent a lot of effort to get to this level of a party to promote myself. Hilda, be a bit more serious, at any rate, bring me some gifts for your aunts and aunts, I'm not joking with you.

Hilda immediately raised her chin and said proudly, "It's nothing. Hand over the gifts, I'll send them over to you."

Lin Ke smiled before suddenly saying in a serious tone, "These gifts are too light to express my gratitude and goodwill towards you. Next time, I'll get the Chamber of Commerce to tailor a better set for you."

Hilda nodded happily and left with a pile of gifts. However, no one saw the trace of suspicion and curiosity on her face as she turned around …

"I can also give you some gifts. Don't forget that this is my home ground," Oliver said while wrinkling his nose cutely.

"This kind of thing is more suitable for someone like Hilda. It would be quite disgraceful for Oliver to do it," Linke smiled at her. "But you said that Hilda wouldn't peek at the contents of the gift box, right?"
