Chapter 1295 Become a Household Name
Anna was surprised, even so surprised that she was stunned on the spot.
Zephyr Continent is a world with a very strict hierarchy. Commoners like her have no right to take the initiative to contact the nobles.
After a while, she came back to her senses and asked nervously: "Can I really do this?"
"What's wrong?" I said, "It's not like we are two places apart. We have to take a magic airship. The mansion of the great nobleman Swift is not too far from our place, only ten minutes away."
"No, that's not what I mean." She pointed at herself and said subconsciously: "I mean, can a person like me be qualified to contact a noble lady?"
"It depends on whether you think you are qualified," I said. "If you think you are qualified, then you are qualified. If you deny yourself, I have nothing to say."
Anna naturally would not let go of this opportunity to become rich and powerful. She was just stunned by the momentary surprise and nervousness. When she recovered, she immediately agreed.
After that, she was spinning around in a panic, muttering something in her mouth.
"Are you possessed?" I frowned, wondering.
"I don't know what to wear," Anna said with a crying look on her face, "I only have this set of good clothes."
"It's not bad to wear a uniform," I said, "at least it will give people a sense of competence."
"But, isn't it a little too serious to dress like this?" She looked at the neat and straight clothes and asked subconsciously.
"It's not a banquet, so don't worry so much."
With that said, I stood up and walked out the door: "I'm going to visit the noble Swift now. Do you want to follow me?"
"Yes, yes!" She followed him immediately like a shadow.
After exiting the store, I sensed my surroundings and saw that there was no scent following me, so I relaxed and took Anna straight to the Swift Mansion.
When I arrived at the gate, I saw the guards and explained my purpose of coming. One of the gatekeepers went in to deliver the message, while the other guards continued to do what they were supposed to do.
Not long after, Swift, dressed in expensive clothes, walked out quickly. Accompanying him was his wife, who was the woman who visited our store today.
"Hello, Lord Swift" I smiled, nodded, and extended my hand.
"Hello." He extended his hand respectfully and shook my hand. His warm expression and cordial attitude were as if we were old friends who had known each other for many years.
"My dear husband," Mrs. Swift closed the fan, shook her head slightly, and said, "Why have you never introduced me to such a handsome young friend?"
"I only met this friend recently," the nobleman said, "through my friend Monroe."
Mrs. Swift's eyes were slightly surprised. She looked at me carefully for a while, then suddenly stepped forward, and then while saluting me, she said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were my husband's friend before."
"Same as you," I said with a smile, "I didn't know you were my friend's wife. I hope you can forgive me for what happened today."
She smiled slightly, her smile was very warm, and she seemed very satisfied with my answer.
"Please sit inside," Swift said, "I've prepared some good wine, and we can talk while drinking."
"Let Sir Swift take the trouble," I said respectfully.
After Swift had just taken two steps, he noticed something was wrong with Anna's breath behind him. When he turned around, he saw that she was still standing there in a daze.
He put his hands behind his back and waved at her, but she remained sluggish and motionless.
I glanced at the guards around me. The guards understood, waved their hands in front of Anna's eyes, and called her a few more times. The girl just came back to her senses, made a sound, her face flushed, and quickly followed her. .
After entering the living room, Swift and I sat across from each other. Swift said to his wife: "I'll have a few words with this friend, and you can go for a walk in the garden first."
I turned to Anna and said, "You accompany Mrs. Swift for a walk in the garden."
She nodded and followed Mrs. Swift out of the living room.
Seeing that there was no one around, Swift said, "My lord, what are you doing here today?"
"Sir?" It felt a bit strange to be called that by a noble, so I corrected him: "Call me An Xiaoyi, this is my name."
He nodded flatteringly and said, "Oh, it turns out to be Mr. An Xiaoyi. What!"
His voice suddenly rose, startling me.
"You are Lord An Xiaoyi!"
As he spoke, he stood up from the sofa with a stunned expression.
"Any questions?" I asked.
"No, no, no problem." He looked at me hotly and said, "So you are Mr. An Xiaoyi, haha, Mr. An Xiaoyi actually condescended to come to my house! This is simply a supreme honor!"
As he spoke, he quickly ran to the door, called the servants loudly, gave a few instructions in a low voice, and then trotted back, serving me tea and water and snacks. I didn’t recognize you, which is so, so embarrassing!”
He said, covering his face.
Neuropathy!
These three words echoed in my mind.
Suddenly it felt like he was possessed by an evil spirit. What the hell is going on with this guy!
My eyes were shaking wildly, and I couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me, what's wrong with you?"
"No, I'm just ashamed and excited." He trembled for a while and said, "So you are Lord An Xiaoyi, so you are Lord An Xiaoyi!"
"I am indeed An Xiaoyi, so what?"
"Please forgive my excitement and give me a minute."
As he spoke, he fell silent and continued to tremble.
A minute and a half passed, and he finally regained his composure, put down his hand, and said excitedly: "I have heard of your name a long time ago. You are the son-in-law of the Dwarf King, a human elder in Moonlight City, and the general manager of the Goblin Assistance Team. You have a close relationship with our Lord, and your reputation is known to everyone. In my opinion, you are simply an idol!"
"Idol?" I pinched my chin and suddenly said: "Hey, you said that everyone knows about me, everyone knows about me?"
"Yes!"
"I see, I thought only you nobles would know about my affairs."
"Yes, that's it," he said excitedly: "Your story has been spread among our nobles. You are simply the idol of us nobles!"
"You nobles?" I asked: "You mean, the big nobles like you?"
He nodded and said: "Yes, only the nobles of the same level as me are qualified to know your affairs. As for the common people with noble titles and ordinary civilians, they have no right to know your affairs."
"Oh I got it."
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise, my previous acting skills would definitely attract the attention of Fatty Boss and others.
But at the same time, I also secretly warned myself: When planning again, I must make everything clear, otherwise I will ask questions with my heart in mind like I did just now.
