Chapter 1790 Invitation
Boss Rennes was not interested in the topic of women, so he did not talk to her. He just sipped his wine with a contented expression on his face.
I knew he couldn't help me much, so I didn't say anything more and sat opposite him, drinking one glass at a time and feeling the silent atmosphere.
Not long after, there were slight footsteps at the door. Turning around, Daphne's slightly thin figure appeared at the door. She poked out half of her face, with a trace of embarrassment hidden in her calm eyes.
"Is something wrong?"
She nodded.
I sighed softly, drank the wine in the glass, stood up slowly, and walked towards the door.
Behind him, Boss Lane, who was drinking, suddenly spit out a mouthful of wine, and then burst out laughing uncontrollably.
I knew what he was laughing at, but there was nothing I could do about it.
Whatever you have to face, no matter how embarrassing it is, you have to find a way to face it. Who told me to owe Kailan a favor?
Kailan, who was lying on the bed, had already woken up. Although her whole body was still filled with the strong smell of alcohol, her eyes were already somewhat bright.
At this moment, she was lying on her side on the bed, with one hand supporting her chin and the other gently resting on her leg. Her dark blue low-cut open-breasted corset dress was tightly attached to her plump body, with her moving lines and looming spring colors. It was presented in front of my eyes at a glance.
I couldn't help but feel excited.
After staring obsessively for a few seconds, I closed my eyes forcefully and swallowed hard.
Even with my eyes closed tightly, Kailan's beautiful and mature figure still appeared in my mind.
I felt a little more hot and dry.
"Why did you stop watching it all of a sudden?" Kailan teased in a teasing tone: "Is it because I'm old and not as good-looking as sister Daphne?"
Daphne, who was sitting opposite me, suddenly let out a helpless sigh.
After the teasing, Kailan sighed softly and said resentfully: "How can you say that I am also your savior? You don't even look at me. It's so heartless."
My body stiffened slightly, and then I slowly opened my eyes. I looked at Daphne first, then turned to look at Kellan.
Seeing me looking at her, Kailan whispered orchid and asked softly in a drunken tone: "Tell me, who is better looking, me or sister Daphne?"
It’s this almost teasing rhetoric again!
I was simply helpless.
If it were just me and Kailan in the room, no matter what she asked, I would be able to handle it with ease, even if she was shameless and coaxed, I wouldn't be embarrassed at all.
But the situation is different now. Daphne is also present. If you ask me such a sensitive question, no matter how I answer it, it will definitely be wrong.
While I was distressed, I raised my head and found that both Daphne and Kailan were staring at me intently, waiting for my answer.
I suddenly felt like my head was bigger than my head.
What to do, what to do?
I thought over and over again, trying to come up with an answer that would satisfy both parties, but this question was no less difficult than "who do you save if your mother or I fall into the water?"
It seems impossible to get an accurate answer to this kind of question.
In desperation, I had to throw the question back to Kailan: "I would like to ask Miss Kailan, do red roses or white roses look better?"
Kailan was slightly startled, his eyes flickered, and he suddenly smiled and said, "You are so cunning."
I chuckled twice, fearing that Kailan would ask some tricky questions again, so I quickly turned to Daphne and asked, "You suddenly called me over, but do you have anything to ask me about?"
Daphne nodded and said, "I discussed it with Sister Kailan, and she agreed to go to Dashai City with me."
"Welcome," I said enthusiastically, "It will be even more powerful for Dashai City to have such a heroine join us."
This is not a compliment. Kailan's strength is obvious to all. Without using the power of transformation, he can easily break through the protection of the power of transformation and disfigure his opponent. This strength is no joke. of.
Daphne bit her lip and said, "Although Sister Kailan has agreed to go to Dashai City with me, she has a request that I hope you can agree to."
Require? I'm afraid it has something to do with the equipment enhancement machine.
"Okay, you say, as long as it's not too much, I agree."
Daphne glanced at Kailan, saw the latter nodded slightly, and then said: "Sister Kailan hopes that you can fund her research on equipment enhancement machines."
"If it's just the funding for researching the equipment enhancement machine, I can guarantee that I'll take care of it." After a pause, I added, "As for the loss and compensation of the equipment, I can't agree to that."
Daphne breathed a sigh of relief, and Kailan sighed quietly and said: "There is no other way, so I can only ask sister Daphne for help. If my sister is in trouble, she can't just ignore it. Do you think that's right, sister~"
Daphne said nothing, but her expression was awkward.
"Would you be suspected of intimidation by doing this?" I asked with a smile.
"There is nothing I can do. Who told my sister to find a good man~" Kailan sighed quietly and said: "I have a hard life, so I can only rely on myself. Fortunately, my sister is considerate, but my little boyfriend is... Very heartless~"
She pouted, looking aggrieved.
This kind of complaining, which was partly coquettish and partly rude, was really beyond my control, so I had to find an excuse, get up and leave.
I didn't go to Boss Wren's room, but to the rooms of Mr. Mavro and Master Shylock.
At this time, the two of them were also drinking, exchanging glasses and enjoying themselves.
Seeing me coming, Mr. Mavro waved to me and motioned to come over and drink together. However, Master Sherlock's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he relaxed again.
I could see his expression clearly, and I couldn't help but find it a little funny.
I really didn’t expect that the shadow of the iron piece I asked him to help repair would be so deep. It’s been so many years, and I’m still nervous.
After clinking glasses with them, Mr. Mavro got straight to the point and said: "Although my family is not a wealthy family, we do have some assets. That shop is still a legacy passed down by my ancestors. I didn't expect that today I would have to hand it over to someone else. Alas. .”
How could I not hear this hard-to-get way of speaking? I comforted you immediately: "You don't need to be so sad. Although I don't have much ability, I am still a small power in Dashai City. I will compensate you." It’s not difficult to build a store of the same size, and it won’t be difficult even if we subsidize you a few more units.”
"Well, I'm relieved if you have this intention." Mr. Mavro nodded, while the index and middle fingers of his right hand kept twirling the sparse beard on his chin.
I smiled, turned to Sherlock, and asked, "I wonder if Master Sherlock would like to go with us?"
Sherlock's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and it took him a while to calm down. He thought for a moment and said slowly: "If I go, I have to rely on you to arrange food and accommodation. I don't have any extra property."
"Don't worry about that," I said, "I can take care of all the food, clothing, housing and transportation. You just need to use your talents and help me do what you can."
Sherlock's eyes widened and he said loudly: "As long as you don't ask me to repair the iron plate again, you can say anything!"
