If you look down from the sky above Tianluo City, you will find a silver ribbon twisting and twisting from the east to the west, adding a unique highlight to the cityscape dominated by black and gray, and this silver belt is actually a river, its name is called Tianluo River, the history is as long as Tianluo City, for the Tianluo people, it is a holy river-like existence.

At night, the Tianluo River, countless colored lights dot on it, making it look like a galaxy as magnificent and dreamy, but a closer look at these colored lights is a large number of yachts, floating on the river, shuttling back and forth, making the Tianluo River a little less quiet and more lively. Moreover, these yachts are very luxuriously decorated, and at first glance they are high-end places that only rich people can visit.

The Tianluo River with elegant environment is also a drunken place, compared with other places that are full of fishy smell everywhere, the Tianluo River is special, the breeze blows, bringing a faint fragrance, those silver river water, in fact, also contains a slight poison, but this poison can ferment a flower-like fragrance, this characteristic makes countless nobles rush to it, after all, even if it is a Tianluo people, its sense of smell is no different from ordinary people, and keen businessmen soon found business opportunities, and the development of Tianluo River into a business field that can bring them huge profits。

Starting at eight o'clock in the evening, there will be more people in the Tianluo River, and when it is close to ten o'clock, it is already very lively, and the yachts of the Tianluo River are full of noisy voices.

Near the west shore, there is a particularly huge yacht moored, its area, comparable to a small square, up to hundreds of meters, the hull is decorated with precious materials everywhere, and its selection is very tasteful, at a glance you know that it comes from everyone's hands, such a luxury yacht, even in the Tianluo River, which is known for its luxurious life, is rare, and its owner must be a rich and expensive celebrity.

The open-air deck, already covered with red animal skin blankets and filled with flowers, has been set up as a makeshift banquet site, and from time to time waitresses in sexy uniforms walk around with fine wine and drinks, busy working.

There are many guests on the yacht, but if you look closely, they are almost all young men and women, the men are personable, and the women are beautiful and generous, and they are very good in speech and manners, and they are obviously well-educated aristocrats.

A young man with black mandala lace embroidered on his clothes was standing in the middle of the room, talking to the guests, and he was the host of the banquet.

The families of the Tianluo tribe are accustomed to using poisonous flowers as symbols, such as the clothing embroidered as tulips in the clothing of the Affalia family, and the black gold embroidery of this mandala flower indicates the identity of the youth, and another big clan of the Tianluo tribe and the Affalia family, the Bones family.

This young man, named Leonard, is the young master of the Bones family, he is very handsome, noble-born, although he is still young, he already has quite good attainments in poison, and he is the future successor of the Bones family, even if he is not the master of the banquet, he has attracted the attention of a large number of girls.

In fact, Leonard is indeed one of the most popular male nobles among the young women in Tianluo City, and he is already surrounded by many beautiful women dressed in fancy clothes, all of whom are trying their best to please him, hoping that he will have the opportunity to become the future mistress of the Bones Qi family.

But Leonard seemed a little absent-minded, always looking at the wall clock on the yacht, consciously or unconsciously.

The hour hand is about to point to ten o'clock, and according to the original itinerary, the yacht will soon leave the shore, make a circle around Tianluo City, and then return to the departure point, which lasts about five hours.

However, the banquet is about to officially begin, and there are guests who have not yet arrived.

If this guest is someone else, Leonard will not care, not everyone can be invited by him, here, are all celebrities Miss Childe, and none of them have a slightly lower status, but they all cherish this opportunity, whoever is absent or late, Leonard will not hesitate to start the yacht on time.

However, this guest who has not yet shown up is very important, which makes him feel a little anxious.

A middle-aged man appeared in the venue, and he looked particularly unusual in this occasion full of beautiful women and handsome guys, but no one was surprised, because this man was not a guest of the yacht, but Leonard's butler Wright, who was in charge of the banquet.

At a certain distance from Leonard, Wright stopped, and Leonard quickly discovered him, knowing what he was looking for, and immediately said a word to a few noble ladies who were pestering him, and then walked over to Wright, and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

Wright said respectfully: "Young Master, the number of people has been counted, except for Miss Cindy, the other VIPs have already arrived." ”

Leonard frowned, "What, Miss Cindy hasn't arrived yet, are you sure you've counted all the places on the yacht?"

What he was waiting for, that special guest, was Cindy, in addition to being the daughter of the patriarch of the Afaria family, Cindy's charm also fascinated Leonard very much, but as the young master of the bones, he was invincible, but he couldn't get this woman. A big reason why Leonard's heart itched, relented, and even held this banquet was for Cindy, because as the host of the banquet, he was always able to show off to attract Cindy's attention.

Wright affirmed, "Yes, I've had the people order it three times, including the bathroom, but they haven't seen Miss Cindy." ”

Leonard no longer doubts, he trusts his housekeeper's ability to do things, he is always very careful, so he is deeply valued by himself, and many affairs are entrusted to him to handle with full authority.

"Miss Cindy, could it be that there is something temporary that can't come?" Wright said tentatively: "Young master, the banquet officially starts at ten o'clock, the time is almost up, do you think the yacht will leave on time?"

Leonard said without hesitation: "No, wait a little longer, maybe Miss Cindy is just late!"

If Cindy hadn't come, he would have lost his interest in the party.

As Leonard's butler and right-hand man, Wright naturally knew that this young master was determined to win Cindy: "Okay, but young master, you'd better determine when it will be extended at the latest, all the guests are waiting, if it's too late, I'm afraid it's not good." ”

"Twenty minutes!" Leonard nodded, "If Miss Cindy hasn't arrived in twenty minutes, we'll set sail!"

"Haode, then I'll arrange it!"

After Wright retired, a stout young man walked over: "Hey, Laishao, I haven't seen Miss Cindy yet, didn't you invite her?"

This young man's clothes are also embroidered with lace, but the pattern is different from that of the Afaria family and the Waiqi family, but a black bauhinia, which is also a very famous family in Tianluo City, the Grad family, but compared to the Affalia and the Bruqi family, this family's shili and prestige are inferior.

The young man's name is Kress Geller, the only son of a respected elder in the Grad family, and he has a high rank in the Grad family, so he also has a certain status in the upper class society of Tianluo City.

In addition to this, like Leonard, Kress is also an avid suitor for Cindy.

There are many suitors for the daughter of the Affalia patriarch, but since Leonard showed his meaning to Cindy, although those people are unwilling, they only dare to have a crush, only this Cress, who is not taken by Leonard's prestige, openly competes with him, which makes Leonardo very annoyed. However, he boasted of his demeanor and was afraid of being criticized for being narrow-minded, so Kress was also invited to this banquet.

"Not yet, maybe Miss Cindy has some temporary urgency. Leonard replied lukewarmly, "I don't know what to say about it, just because you want to fight with me too."

Compared with Leonard, Kress's conditions are indeed worse, but he is very narcissistic: "Oh, yes, is it a temporary emergency, or Leonard you failed to invite someone, hehe, Miss Cindy came to the banquet I held last month, and she arrived early!"

This sentence is a sarcasm of Leonard, implying that Cindy may not have any intention of you at all, don't be delusional, of course Leonard can hear it, his face changed slightly, but as the host of the banquet, he is not easy to attack at this time: "Ke Shao, you won't bother with this, I have other things, if you are bored, how about going over there and having two drinks first?"

"Well, let's go, I wouldn't have bothered to come to this boring banquet if Miss Cindy hadn't come!" Kress snorted and turned to leave, the harsh words that made Leonard's face turn blue and his fists clenched.

Damn it, Cress, who do you think you are, if it weren't for the sake of face, I would have invited you?

"Lai Shao, don't be angry, such a vulgar person doesn't have the cultivation of a nobleman at all, you are the young master of the Qiqi family, you don't need to worry about him in general. A little man popped out of nowhere and came up to Leonard.

But this person was very raw, Leonard frowned and said, "You are ......"

"Adrian Jairo!" the little man stretched out his hand, "Although it is the first time we have met, but Lai Shao, I have admired your name for a long time, thank you for the invitation, it is an honor to be able to attend this banquet." ”

Leonard thought for a while, and finally remembered that the Jairo family was a family that had only risen in the past two years and had just obtained the surname qualification not long ago, and there was a gap between the grade in Tianluo City and his own before, so there was almost no intersection.

However, this family already has a roll call, and his father Leo, who has always advocated the communication principles of the left and right, told himself to take advantage of this banquet to invite Allen, the young master of the Jairo family, but Alan was out of town and failed to return to Tianluo City in time, but the Jairo family attached great importance to this invitation from the Skeleton family, and intended to make friends, so the invitation was handed over to Allen's younger brother, the little man Adrian.
