Chapter 61: Oliver Quinn

"Master Jason, you're here."

"Ah Fu? What's the matter? ”

Jason looked up strangely from the book and looked at the old man in front of him.

"A friend of Master Bruce is coming later, he asked me to ask if you are free, let's have a meal together"

Alfred's words inadvertently made Jason feel a little curious. Bruce didn't have many friends, and he rarely mentioned it to Jason. Ever since Jason moved into Wayne Manor, he'd been curious about whether he had time to make friends with a man like Bruce, who was a playboy and president during the day, and who was investigating cases all over the world at night, plus running around the world every now and then to solve crimes.

Clark's appearance was enough to surprise Jason, and now another one has popped up. And with Alfred asking for his opinion so formally like this, it seems that this friend is quite important to Bruce.

How important is it? More important than Clark? Is it Bruce's friend or Batman's? It was supposed to be Bruce's, and Batman's friends wouldn't have been invited to dinner so formally in time. Who is it? Is it important enough to know Bruce's hidden identity?

"Ah Fu, is he a very good friend of Bruce? Better than Clark? ”

Jason couldn't resist asking Alfred for answers. But to Jason's surprise, Alfred, who still maintained a polite smile no matter what he faced, leaked a little dissatisfied expression when he heard Jason's inquiry.

Jason blinked, staring carefully at Alfred's side face, making sure it wasn't his delusion, and Alfred was a little unhappy.

Wow, that's a rarity.

Jason couldn't help but feel a little curious about the upcoming blues friend. Because he was so curious, it was difficult for him to immerse himself in the story in the book. For the first time, he realized that time passed so slowly, that he used to be called to dinner by Alfred whenever he hadn't had time to finish the book in his hand.

Finally, when the sun went down, it was about to be the appointed time. Jason stood in front of the closet and wondered if he should be dressed formally. It feels like this friend is the kind of friend of high society with Bruce, and he can't embarrass Bruce.

"Master Jason, you don't have to be so nervous, it's Master Bruce's personal friend, please feel free."

When Alfred came over to call Jason, he found Jason standing in front of the mirror and comparing his favorite formal dress suit. The serious expression made Alfred chuckle without chuckling:

"Master Bruce and his friends are waiting for you in the restaurant."

“... Oh"

Jason eventually changed into casual clothes and followed Alfred towards the restaurant, standing in front of the restaurant with an unexplained atmosphere that made Jason nervous, this was the first time he had met Bruce's friends in high society since he came here.

Nervously, he pushed open the door and walked in, where Bruce was sitting in the same place he used to sit, and a blonde man sat on the chair with his back to the door.

The man heard the movement and turned his head to look at Jason. Blonde hair froze haphazardly on the head, and a carefully trimmed golden beard covered the contours of the face, leaving a pinch of goatee on the chin. Golden eyebrows wrapped around greenish pupils looked at Jason. Those green eyes made Jason feel a little more affectionate towards him.

What pure blonde hair.

This is Jason's impression when he first met Oliver, few people can still retain such pure blonde hair after adulthood, most of them will turn golden brown due to the increase in melanin, and some even lose their gold color and become dark brown.

"Oh, this is your new boy? It's rare to see such pure green eyes."

After seeing Jason's face again, Oliver said in a flirtatious tone. Green eyes are the product of a recessive gene in humans, and a little mixing of other genes is likely to cause the eyes to lose their green color. Most people who are called blue-eyed just have some green spots, and some can barely look green, and Oliver is the kind of eyes with green patches.

Jason's eyes are as green as emerald stones, and it's rare to see such pure green eyes.

Oliver Quinn's flirtatious tone completely wiped out the little affection Jason had for him.

"Hello, Mr. Quinn, welcome to the Humble House"

Although he didn't feel very cold about this person, Jason still greeted him politely. His standard polite language made Oliver Quinn pause for a moment, and then burst into laughter:

"Hah! He's so cute! Did you teach him to say hello? One board and one eye..."

"It's me, Mr. Oliver Quinn, and I don't want Master Jason to be thought of as an uneducated nouveau riche!"

Alfred was the result of the topic of Oliver Quinn, unobtrusively sarcastic to him. Jason clearly felt the disgust transmitted from Alfred. Ah, it's rare to see someone who can make Alfred so annoying.

Jason looked at the man carefully, dressed in a fancy casual outfit, slumped in the dining chair without any sitting, exuding the label "I'm a playboy" all over his body, but in a completely different style from Gotham Baby.

"It's so cute, it's like the one in our family, it's only called "dead old man" and "dead old man" all day long, it's really enough"

"You should also do a little bit of what a father should do."

Bruce chuckled and interjected into a sentence, successfully diverting Oliver Quinn's attention from Jason, staring at Bruce for a long time before saying:

“..... You don't have any right to talk about me at this point."

In response to Oliver Quinn's provocation, Bruce motioned to Jason to sit down unaffected:

"Oliver, this is Jason. Jason, this is Oliver Quinn living in Star City...."

"Your introduction is too simple! I'm the richest man in Star City! ”

Oliver protested against Bruce's brief introduction. In response to his protest, Bruce simply suggested that Alfred could be served.

Ignored, Oliver protests his displeasure, but no one pays attention to him. Alfred quickly brought the meal, and Jason listened to the two men babbling about some business jargon he didn't understand at all.

[Bruce's friends are really the richest man...]

Jason thought.

Jason, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes in a daze, he was woken by the sound of car horns outside the window. After looking at the ceiling and thinking for a while, I remembered that this was Star City, and I had come here for a deal.

Picking up the phone and dialing the number, the person in charge of transporting him answered the phone. Everything is going well, and the goods will be delivered to the designated place tomorrow afternoon.

After the call, Jason sent the delivery time to his business partner in code, and then he had to wait for the other party to specify the location.

After lying on the bed for a while, Jason got up and walked to the bed with his phone.

The glare of the sunlight outside the window forced Jason to squint, and it took him a while to get used to the bright sunlight of the early morning.

If the sunshine of the metropolis is a mild sunshine, then the sunshine of Seaside City is the kind of vibrant sunshine, and Star City, which borders Seaside City, is clearly sharing this warm sunshine.

“... There's still some time, let's do something..."

Looking at the already busy highway outside, Jason prepared some preliminary work for the upcoming "deal".
