Chapter 136 Disparity in Status
Shuo was dumbfounded on the spot, and then saw the old man, sitting down and standing up, walking over. Sitting there just now, Han Shuo didn't notice it. When the old man straightened his back, he immediately looked mighty and extraordinary. It seemed that he was tall and broad without looking old at all.
Phoebe secretly twisted Han Shuo, telling Han Shuo to say something quickly. Lawrence on the other side also gave Han Shuo a fierce look, as if urging Han Shuo to apologize to the old man quickly.
Seeing the old man approaching, Han Shuo smiled wryly and said, "Your ears are really good, but I didn't say anything bad about you, I just wanted to introduce you to an old friend."
"Oh? This is really interesting. I didn't expect you to be so kind." After the old man came over, he glanced at Han Shuo. Han Shuo felt a little chilled, and then pointed at Phoebe. He smiled and said: "Are you referring to this beautiful girl? If it is her, I will be very happy, ha ha!"
As soon as these words came out, Han Shuo was stunned. Phoebe blushed and gave Han Shuo a hard look, as if blaming Han Shuo for getting himself burned.
"No, that girl obviously doesn't match your age. I think this old lady is more suitable for you." Han Shuo always felt that his own aura was somewhat hindered in front of this old man, as if he opened his mouth to continue Brazen nonsense.
On the other side, Lawrence looked a little anxious and winked at Han Shuo again and again, but it was still a bit late, and Han Shuo said what he should say.
"I have no upbringing and no good eyes. How can I match this old thing? Are you impatient?" Valerie was extremely angry, and she snarled at Han Shuo fiercely. He glared at the old man.
"Young man, you must be joking. Although I am not young, I am obviously not as old as this lady. I think she may be a better match for my deceased grandfather." Hearing Valerie scolded himself, the old man actually Cheerful's equally vicious counterattack.
His age is already very old, so to say that is to demote Valerie to nothing. As soon as these words came out, Valerie was almost out of breath. Immediately glaring at the old man, he shouted angrily: "You old man, how dare you say that about me."
"Slap!" With a slap, Lawrence suddenly shot. Directly fanning the lady's face, she said to Cameron next to her with a cold face: "Uncle Cameron, your friend is too impolite, and such a person is not welcome in our family. Please leave here immediately."
Cameron's face changed slightly, as if he didn't understand why Lawrence would do this. The lady was even more frantic, and there was faint blood on her left hand covering her mouth. It seemed that Lawrence's slap was not light.
Cameron felt something was wrong in his heart,
Just as he was about to ask Lawrence what he meant, Ibrahimovic, the chancellor of the exchequer, came over from a distance. When I got here, I saw the old man. Immediately exclaimed. Immediately came up to salute and said: "Old Mr. Hahn, why did you come here?"
Han Shuo was shocked. Then he suddenly remembered the identity of Emily that Cameron had mentioned earlier. The current Patriarch of the Beatridge family was Hahn. While thinking this way, when Han Shuo looked at the old man again, he had vaguely guessed his identity.
Cameron's face also changed drastically, and he coldly shouted at Valerie in a low voice: "Shut up!" Stopped Valerie who was going to continue to quarrel, and then Cameron said to the old man in fear: " I'm sorry Mr. Hahn, we were rude, I will take her away right away, and I will come to your door to apologize in a few days."
At this moment, Valerie finally came to her senses, her expression full of fear, she stood there blankly not knowing what to say, obviously Hahn's identity had shocked her.
"No need, we, the Beitridge family, can't tolerate people like you." Hahn looked as usual, glanced at the two of them coldly, and said indifferently.
Cameron's expression was still humble, and he kept company with him repeatedly, dragging the dazed Valerie, and quickly walked outside. Before he was about to leave, he kept bending down and humbly saying sorry words to Hahn until he disappeared.
In this world, no matter how much gold coins the merchants earned, their social status would never be as high as Hahn's. In particular, the Hahn family is still a senior member of the military, and Hahn's status in the Lancelot Empire is even more noble. A businessman like Cameron would not dare to offend Hahn no matter what.
"Boy, you dare
Little! "After Cameron left, Lawrence and Ibrahimovic had already explained, Han Shuo still had that expression, and he didn't apologize or show much panic. This made Hahn look a little surprised, and hummed softly at Han Shuo. With one sound, he opened his mouth and said.
In fact, after knowing Hahn's identity, Han Shuo also seemed a little surprised. However, Han Shuo didn't say anything too rude just now, so he wasn't afraid of Hahn. After hearing what he said, he smiled modestly and said: " I just made a joke of you just now, and I think you won't care about it with your stomach."
"Hey, I'm very narrow-minded, and everyone knows that." Hahn gave a strange laugh, and said unexpectedly to Han Shuo.
When he said this, Han Shuo was a little taken aback, and he stood there not knowing what to say.
"Hey, Father, what are you talking about here?" At this moment, Emily, who had changed a new dress from a distance, came over. When she got here, she first glanced at Han Shuo, and then looked at Han Shuo in surprise. Hahn said.
Emily married Hahn's second son, but that unlucky guy was sent to the battlefield by Hahn before he had time to consummate the marriage with Emily, and eventually he left Emily as a widow. Therefore, after Emily became the daughter-in-law of the Beitridge family, old Hahn kept blaming himself, feeling that he owed his son and daughter-in-law. It is said that he loved Emily very much, and he was closer to his own son.
"It's nothing, I just met an interesting little guy. Well, let's go, I'll go dancing with you. I really don't understand you. You have never brought a dance partner to a banquet before. This old guy is dragging you, and I will be tormented to death by you sooner or later." Old Hahn first said something casually, then grinned and walked towards the hall of the ball.
Emily wanted to say something at first, but once Old Hahn left, she could only follow up quickly. But before leaving, Emily glanced at Han Shuo secretly.
After Old Hahn said those words, it seemed that he was secretly pointing out something. Han Shuo thought about it for a while, and realized that it might be because of his own reasons, which made Emily make a change. move.
"Hey, she is Mrs. Emily. I should be seeing her for the first time today, but her back looks familiar!" Lawrence looked at the direction where Emily disappeared, glanced at Han Shuo, and whispered said doubtfully.
Lawrence's words obviously meant something, especially when he glanced at Han Shuo at the end, which made Han Shuo feel that Lawrence seemed to have discovered something. But for Han Shuo, the relationship between him and Phoebe is fake, so he is not afraid of Lawrence telling Phoebe about his relationship with Emily, and he is at peace in his heart, and there is no panic.
"Little Phoebe, you didn't offend old Hahn, did you?" After Hahn and Emily left, the Minister of Finance Ibrahimovic looked at Phoebe and asked with some concern.
"Don't care about Phoebe's affairs, hehe, go get busy with your affairs, don't worry about it, just leave it to me." Lawrence stood beside him and said suddenly.
Ibrahimovic seemed to listen to Lawrence very much. After Lawrence spoke, Ibrahimovic nodded and left without saying anything, smiling.
"Don't worry, Mr. Hahn is not the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong. He won't embarrass you, I can assure you. The dance has already started, you can enjoy it." After Ibrahimovic left, Lawrence smiled at Han Shuo Talk to Phoebe.
"Well, I got it, brother." Phoebe said with a smile, then teased Han Shuo, and said casually, "Let's go, dance with me."
Han Shuo was stunned, and said in a panic, "Forget it, I can't dance, not at all!"
Phoebe was stunned, hesitated for a while, and when she was about to give up, she suddenly frowned, and said playfully, "It's okay, I can teach you, it's very simple."
"Forget it, I'm stupid, it's not good to make a fool of yourself in public." Han Shuo smiled wryly and shook his head in refusal.
With her slender and fair neck raised, Phoebe said angrily, "Why did you promise me beforehand? Don't try to avoid the problem."
As soon as the words fell, regardless of whether Han Shuo agreed or not, Phoebe directly grabbed Han Shuo's arms and dragged Han Shuo to the dance floor, not allowing Han Shuo to refuse. [Small monthly ticket]
