Chapter Seventy-Four: Katerina's Invitation

The next day, Rui Wen took Lu Bu and Ahri to continue to wander around in Noxus, and the city can be said to be not ordinarily big. The distinction between the upper and lower floors of the pen, fun, www.biquge.info and pavilion has added a lot of dark corners to the city, and in some places, Rui Wen is not even willing to go at all. Lu Bu also knew why she didn't want to go, after all, not everyone wanted to see a dark place, even if they all knew what the darkness was like.

At dusk, Lu Bu tried on the suit he had just bought in the clothing store, and Rui Wen looked at him who looked heroic in formal clothes. A happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, Lu Bu's face looked very good, and it was indeed very good with the masculine aura and the iron-blooded taste left by the perennial war.

"Be careful at night, don't get eaten by Katarina." She walked behind Lu Bu with a smile, helped him pat the twists and turns behind him, and pulled his sleeves to make him look more energetic.

"She's not Nash, I'm far from wanting to eat it!" Hearing Rui Wen's joke, Lu Bu laughed even more happily.

"Anyway, I'll wait for you to come back." Taking a slight step back, Rui Wen's expression became serious at this moment, obviously very serious.

Lu Bu nodded and put away the smile he had just faced. He didn't think there would be anything going on tonight, but since Rui Wen was so solemn, of course he couldn't be perfunctory.

Out of the clothing store, it was already dark. The two parted ways, Rui Wen returned to the residence, and Lu Bu walked directly towards the restaurant in the invitation. But although he is walking, his speed is definitely not slow. In just a few minutes, he had already arrived at this restaurant called the Imperial Maiden.

"Is it Mr. Lu Bu?" The waiter stepped forward to ask, and this respectful attitude made people unable to find out the thorns.

Lu Bu nodded, and then handed over his invitation. The waiter took the invitation with both hands and read it respectfully. Then he bowed to Lu Bu and said loudly: "The person who invited you is already waiting for you inside, please come with me." After speaking, he turned around and led the way, although his pace was fast, it was just within the speed that Lu Bu could keep up with.

Led by the waiter, Lu Bu entered the depths of this restaurant. To his surprise, the restaurant looked small, but the internal structure was terrifyingly large. At least as far as he had counted, the number of rooms here had already exceeded three digits.

Entering the deepest room, Caterina was already sitting in her place waiting for him. She didn't wear the leather coat she often wears today, but changed into a very beautiful dress, how to say, a bit of an Ionian style (see Closed Moon's Face). However, this dress did make Lu Bu pleasing to the eye, and he sat opposite Caterina very calmly. Cathari watched him sit down, then signaled that the waiter could start serving.

The waiter bowed and exited the room, and soon the delicate dishes were served to the table. But Lu Bu was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, Caterina looked at him, showed a charming smile, and said in that beautiful voice: "Why don't you try it?" The food here is definitely worthy of a state dinner. After all, it was a retired chef from the Noxian court. ”

Hearing her words, Lu Bu picked up the chopsticks and ate a few bites. But he quickly put it down again, and said with two wry smiles on his face: "To be honest, sitting in front of you, I can't eat properly." After all, it's hard for me to imagine that a woman with a vengeance would invite a man with whom she has a vendetta to dinner. ”

"Oh? So what do you think I'll do? At night, while you are sleeping, sneak into your room and cut your throat? Caterina smiled, and smiled beautifully.

"If that were the case, I wouldn't have to worry so much about it now." Lu Bu sighed, if Caterina really came to assassinate him, he really didn't have to be as distressed as he was now. Just catch her and send her to the War College, and the rest is a rip-off between countries.

"Mr. Svein would be very upset if he did. After all, the last time I was captured, it had already cost him a lot, and if the same thing happened again, then the Duke Kao family would really lose face. Caterina took a sip of the wine in the glass, then shook the glass casually, and looked at Lu Bu in front of her with a smile.

Lu Bu had no choice but to laugh, he raised the cup in front of him and touched it with Katarina. Then the two of them took a sip of wine at the same time, and Lu Bu spoke again: "Now, now you can talk about it, what is the purpose of inviting me to come." ”

"An invitation to Noxus, of course. Oh, or rather, to join the Duke Kao family. Caterina put down the glass in her hand, and her face was solemn.

Lu Bu could only smile bitterly, and he said helplessly: "Are you all crazy? Do you want to persuade you when you know you can't do it? ”

This time it was Caterina's turn to smile, but she didn't smile helplessly, but with a sense of ease. Gently tapping the plate with chopsticks, she said softly: "Actually, you are shaking yourself, you can also see the advantages and disadvantages of Noxus and Demacia now." You're just waiting, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a choice. ”

Hearing her words, Lu Bu put away the smile on his face. His face was as cold as ice at the moment, and after thinking for a while, he said with seriousness: "You're right, I'm really waiting, waiting for the opportunity to come." Noxus or Demacia, which is better for me? Is it the crazy Noxus, or the resolute Demacia? ”

"That's why I'm here to invite you. Not to join Noxus, but to join the Duke Kao family. This is my personal invitation. Caterina propped her head on one hand and squinted at the man in front of her.

"Do you want me to join the Duke Kao family after I join Noxus?" Lu Bu also understood her thoughts, although there were still some things that he didn't quite understand, but he still guessed the general thing.

"That's right, if you do join Noxus, I hope you can join the Duke Kao family. Of course, if you choose to stay in Demacia in the end, then you can say nothing tonight. Caterina continued to smile, a smile that was a little obsessive.

"I don't understand, why did you invite me to join the Duke Kao family? If I did join Noxus, I would have joined the military as a subordinate of Darius or an equal to him. Why are you in such a hurry to woo me into the Durkkao family? Lu Bu began to move his chopsticks again at this time, and asked while eating.

At this time, Caterina shook her head with two points of helplessness, and a bitterness suddenly appeared on her face, and she could only say to Lu Bu: "You don't understand the political division of power in Noxus. The Delai brothers, Cree, and Urgart are one faction. Svein, Warwick, Sinjid, Mondo are a faction. LeBlanc, Vladimir, Sacco are a faction. I, Tyrone, Sain and Cassiopeia are a ......"

Before she could finish her words, Lu Bu suddenly interjected: "Then it seems that you are still a three-legged standstill." Why are you wooing me? ”

Caterina shook her head helplessly and continued, "On the surface, that's true. But you can think about it, Tyrone can't and doesn't want to enter the hierarchy of power, and Seon has lost his wisdom and is just a fierce beast. Cassiopeia is like that now, and he can't enter the circle of power at all. I'm the only one who can speak, but I'm the only one who can only deal with Svein and them, and I really can't compete for a bigger voice. "In order to keep everything that the Duke Kao family has now, Caterina has worked hard. But even with this hard work, their family has lost a lot. The sudden disappearance of General Durkkao really broke his head.

Lu Bu sighed and thought for a long time before saying, "Look, I don't want to involve too much, that will only put myself in danger." I'm at least a hero of Demacia now, and I can't make any promises. But if something does happen in the future, then I will consider everything you said today. With that, he got up and walked out of the room, enough for today's business.

After a moment when Lu Bu walked out of the room, Tyrone walked in. He looked at Caterina who was not moving in the chair, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "He didn't agree." ”

Indeed, he did not agree. But he's going to have an even bigger headache now, he's not the kind of person who is good at politics himself. It doesn't matter, the more headaches he has, the more chances he has in the future. With that, Caterina leaned back on the couch behind her, tired from many recent events.

Tyrone bent down and slowly stepped out. At this time, he didn't want to disturb Katarina, so let her have a good rest.
