At the royal ball.

Oliver covered his little disappointment with a smile and said, "I don't think so, but can't I see the things in the gift box?"

Lin Ke smiled awkwardly, "It's not something that can't be seen, it's some girl's underwear or something like that. You know, my Chamber of Commerce makes clothes, so thinking about it, underwear is more suitable, it's just …" "It's just that her style is a little special. It's unlikely that Hilda would like it …"

Oliver was actually a bit curious. His large eyes glanced over at Xue'er, causing her to blush a little.

It was hard to say.

"Why don't you give me one? If you look good, you can also recommend it to my sisters. It won't ruin their image, will it?" Oliver laughed.

"Do you have a fiance or something?" Linke asked in all seriousness.

Oliver was stunned for a moment, and then he could not maintain his ladylike demeanor any longer. He lowered his head and muttered in a mosquito-like voice, "No."

"Then forget it, my underwear isn't suitable for you," Linke said apologetically.

Oliver was shocked, and then he looked towards Link with a strange gaze.

"Ah, we really should talk about drinking parties and such," Linke used a very clumsy method to change the topic. Fortunately, the girl opposite him was very experienced in such situations, so she didn't embarrass him with a smile and a nod, "I really want to know, how long does it take for a party like this to start in the imperial city?"

Oliver smiled elegantly as he took a sip of wine and said, "If we don't distinguish between the political circles of the military and even the royal family, it will probably only take a week? Sometimes it's more concentrated, sometimes it's more sparse. "

Looking face to face with Oliver at a party like this always had a difficult feeling about it, and you had to look for something that wasn't quite right and express it in a polite way. For example, right now, he had to be calm enough, but the truth was that he was still very shocked inside, wasn't there something else the big shots of the Empire had to do?

"Wow, no wonder so many people are familiar with each other, no wonder my appearance here as a new face would make everyone so surprised," Linke self-deprecatingly laughed. "Do you always go to all kinds of ball parties and the like?"

Oliver nodded and said, "Some of them can't be refused, some of them are really interested in us, while others are bored to pass the time. This is a part of our way of life, perhaps others think that we are extremely envious of them, but in reality we don't really have many regrets. When you are born into a common family, you need to work in the fields to support your family.

Perhaps what you need to see is a different world, "Lin Ke repressed the emotion in his heart and said in a calm voice," Go see the jungle and birds, take a walk in the countryside, climb the dangerous mountains, and explore the deep valleys of the setting sun. A hunt that can whistle through the surrounding powers can only be considered a game, and a trip of three or five traveling together across the world can only be considered a wonderful one, sorry, it should be because I drank too much, I have become a little talkative, I don't know if the guards will chase me away because they want to teach me how to be bad?

Oliver covered his mouth and laughed, "How can there be such an easily naughty girl here?"

Link smiled and stopped talking.

Hilda had returned just in time.

This was because she had avoided their embarrassing situations.

But she brought in new, awkward topics.

"Hello, Ke …" Cohen, are you sure it's really okay for me to give those things to aunts and aunts? " Hilda asked in a low voice, her face completely red. She didn't even dare to look at Link.

Lin Ke and Xue'er looked at each other and saw the answer in each other's eyes. Lin Ke could only muster up the courage to ask, "Did you peek at those gift boxes?"

"No, no," Hilda waved her hands in a flustered reflex, then lowered her head and nodded. "Alright, I only took a glance, in fact, I've already thought of taking back all the gift boxes I sent out, but I've already given them away after all. Cohen, how should they look at me? You've caused my death!"

Lin Ke smiled and touched Hilda's arm, "You don't have to worry about this. There are the emblem of the Wind Chamber of Commerce, an invitation card in platinum, as well as an explanation card, they will naturally not misunderstand you," he bowed and said, "But no matter what, I have to thank you, Hilda, after these few days, I will definitely treat you to a meal to express my gratitude. Right, why haven't I seen Luther?"

Hilda's happy expression froze on her face when she heard what Link had said earlier. "What's the matter with him? If Oliver invited me, he wouldn't be invited, right, Oliver?"

Oliver smiled and nodded. The only ones who didn't understand were Link and Snow.

"Hey, I hope I didn't disturb you," Nicole walked over from not far away and joined the group. "Are these two your classmates, Cohen?" She looked at the green-haired girl doubtfully and said, "We should have met before, but we just forgot where it is."

Hilda laughed. "It was at the arena where Cohen beat up that second-year bastard. Back then, I was unable to get close to him once you guys left in advance. Senior Nicole, are you classmates with His Highness Sarah?" I like her very much. She's so powerful! "

Nicole gently smiled and said, "Naturally, that Your Highness is very powerful. She is recognized as the number one expert among the third year students. Her talent is extraordinary, coupled with her beautiful appearance and noble background, she is a person blessed by the heavens!"

"One day, like her, I will also be worshipped by my junior sisters and seniors." She suddenly wrinkled her brow and escaped from her fantasy, staring at Link with extreme disgust, "Only, the position of number one will probably become the object of a certain two freaks, sigh …"

Linke "..."

Oliver covered his mouth and laughed lightly, then said to Hilda, "Let's go over there and pay our respects to our seniors." Seeing that Hilda was reluctantly nodding her head, he turned to the other three and said, "The seniors over there seem to be leaving soon. Hilda and I will go over there and try out the Rainbow Bar. It's very good."

The three of them nodded in thanks.

Looking at Oliver who was walking away and Hilda who had turned her head back a few times, the three of them were filled with emotion.

"These nobles always look down on merchants, no matter how great your achievements are. However, I really like that little girl, Hilda. This is really too rare of a place like this," Nicole smiled and said to Rinko.

Xue'er pouted and said, "What's there to be proud of? Hmph, Cohen, if you stand at a higher place in the future, I will also hold a royal ball. You are not allowed to look down on others."

Lin Ke smiled and nodded, "As you wish, Miss Xue'er." After looking at the Barbie doll, Lin Ke relaxed his body and mind, then turned to Nicole and said, "Hilda has also helped to send out a batch of gifts. If the courtesans from before were considered the fashionable people in the circle of young and noble ladies, then this batch would be the actual middle-aged noble ladies.

"Let's water it when it sprouts!"
