Chapter 1126: Lost in the Oasis (8)

At the same time, in a dressing room in the Grand Hotel in Cairo.

Albert had just put on a pure white [Horus] suit, a clean suit that matched the white tiger's coat and almost matched the color of his coat. The tiger tucked his feet into the pure white leather shoes, and then looked again and again in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror of his height, and was very satisfied with his handsomeness.

"Huhu, look at your stinky appearance. Palamides walked over and straightened the bow around Albert's neck, "Okay, that's going to be more handsome, little ghost." Albert's outfit was white, except for this one, which was a solid black bow. This black and white suit is as harmonious as this tiger with black tiger stripes on its white hair.

"Hey," the tiger chuckled under his breath, his face flushed slightly, and he deliberately said, "When does the dinner begin?" it was almost eight o'clock, and I was almost hungry. "The formal dinner begins at eight o'clock sharp. It's only 7:30, and it's very early. Zhalfir came over and said. Like his father, Palamides, he wore a black [Horus] suit, which was also very handsome, but the color was in great contrast to Albert's suit. As if to be paired with a tiger, Zhalfir also wore a white bow, making the leopard man youth look not only handsome, but also a little extra youthful.

"Hmm" Palamides knew what his son was thinking, and helped Zhalfir straighten out the white bow. When he saw that Zhalfir also had a satisfied expression, he took a step back and straightened his gray-blue silk tie in front of the mirror.

(What the hell am I doing?) The leopard man looked in front of the mirror at the big black cat in a monkey suit. He looked like a successful businessman, with the air of a nobleman all over his body. But he is obviously just a scoundrel who was born as a hooligan and survived by stealing. What the hell is this stupid big black panther pretending to be—beep.

"I hope the Queen of Gems isn't too picky," Albert paced a little uncomfortably, "Oh no, I can barely remember the table manners I've learned all afternoon." The Egyptian etiquette was so complicated - was the spoon to be held in the left hand or in the right hand?" "Meow right. Palamides and Zhalfir replied in unison.

"Left hand or right hand?" said Albert, with a smile on his face.

"Uh-whatever!" Paramides snorted, "Anyway, we are rough people who don't know how to be polite, and no matter how much we rush to hold on to Buddha's feet, we will always show our feet in details." Just do it as you normally would. Remember, we don't have to go out of our way to please the Gem Queen. We only promised Daddy Sphynx to attend this dinner and not lie in front of the Queen of Jewels. Daddy Sphinx will take care of the rest of the matter himself, it's none of our business!" "Got it (meow). Zhalfir and Albert replied in unison.

The tiger thought for a moment, and then said, "But just to let us attend a dinner party, it took a lot of effort and a lot of money to invite us, and this Sphynx father is also quite generous." "Perhaps, for him, to negotiate a deal with the Queen of Jewels, he will get more benefits. Palamedis explained: "Either way, it's not our turn to worry about that kind of thing. We just have to do our part. "Huhu, I originally thought Daddy was a terrible person. Zhalfir also smiled and said, "I thought the gang boss would definitely ask us to do something unknown to meow." I didn't expect it to be such a serious business dinner. "Of course," a voice interrupted the conversation between Palamides and the others, and Leopard Fileos walked into the locker room, "In addition to gang activities, Daddy is also engaged in a lot of serious business. It should be said that most of the businesses run by Daddy are legal. Dad said that there will be no future for me to make a living from the dirty things of the gangsters. "I hope so. Palamides glanced at Philaeos and replied without emotion. He saw that Feleos was still wearing the black tights, not even a suit, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Philios, aren't you going to the dinner with us?" "I, I'll attend, I'll be my personal bodyguard, behind my father's bodyguard." But I'm going to stop eating this meal and watch you eat it. Palamides frowned again in puzzlement: "But didn't Daddy Sphinx treat you like a son? Feleos' eyes were full of a certain persistence: "Protecting my dad is my most important mission, and helping dad negotiate this business is your mission." Our missions do not conflict, we can just do what we have to do. "Yes" Although Palamides was full of suspicion in his heart, the other party had said this, and the leopard warrior was embarrassed to say anything more: "So, is this the task that Daddy Sphinx arranged for you?" "Exactly." Is there any problem?" Philios' fanatical belief in the Sphinx Daddy made it impossible for him to see the truth of the matter.

"Nope. No problem, please don't care. Palamides said perfunctorily, slightly disappointed.

Although Daddy says that he treats Philios as his own son, in reality, Daddy Sphinx probably only treats Celeos as a pawn. A person who really loves will never let his son wait on the side with an empty stomach, but go to eat and talk about business with others.

The Sphinx still couldn't be trusted. He may be a successful businessman, or he may be a rich chaebol who rivals the country and is the king of one side. But this person is insincere, has no love for his subordinates and his family.

Palamides began to think about how to get the end of tonight's dinner as quickly as possible, and then dissociated himself from the Sphinx daddy. I just hope that before the involvement is deep and the situation can be charged, the relationship can really be cleared.

Seeing that the leopard warrior was stunned, Philios patted his brother on the shoulder: "It's boring to stay here, isn't it? It's a little early now, but let's go first and get familiar with the environment." "Well, okay. Palamides whispered.

The venue for the dinner is not far away, it is on the top floor of the Grand Cairo Hotel, in the crystal revolving restaurant at the top of the building.

The Celestal Resturant at the Grand Cairo Hotel is one of the most exclusive five-star restaurants in Egypt and even Africa, and every day dignitaries from all walks of life rush to reserve a table in the restaurant. With so many reservations, even the smallest table at this restaurant needs to be booked three years in advance.

Being able to have a dinner in such a luxurious restaurant was originally a dream of many ordinary people. But why? At this moment, Palamides could not help but feel a vague uneasiness in his heart. Aside from the unstable factors of the Sphinx father, there seems to be something else that makes Palamides feel unsure.

The elevator to the Celestial Restaurant was surprisingly fast, and they were soon in this crystal revolving restaurant. With Feleos leading the way, the Palamides father and son (and Albert) enter the luxurious box for tonight's dinner.

Then, at last, the great black panther knew where his uneasiness was coming from.

In this luxurious crystal box, not only the ceiling and walls, but also the floor are made of crystal. Although the ultra-hard crystal floor is very reliable and will never shatter, it also has amazing light transmission. Standing here, it was as if Palamides were in the air at a height of thousands of feet, and at his feet was the coast of Cairo. The stars and moon reflect the Mediterranean, and the scenery is dizzying, but at the same time, it also makes the feet of the leopard warriors begin to tremble.

Palamides, the big cat, has a fear of heights.

"Oh my!" he whispered, "We have to have dinner in such a shitty place?!" "What's the matter? This is the most exclusive restaurant in all of Egypt," Philios asked, apparently unaware of his brother's fear of heights, with a puzzled expression.

"Daddy is afraid of meows. Zhalfir grinned mischievously, "Dad, you are so cowardly, you are afraid of meows in this kind of place? You see, even -- this -- jumps -- it's no problem at all!" Zhalfir jumped on the crystal floor as he spoke.

Bump, bump, bump! He jumped several times, his shoes hitting the crystal floor, making Palamides dizzy. The Leopard Warriors had the illusion that the floor would shatter at any moment, causing everyone to fall from this high altitude.

"Don't jump!, stinky boy, don't jump!," Palamides whispered, leaning against the wall. If he could, he would have rushed over and slapped Zhalfir.

"Uncle is useless," Albert also cast a strange look at Palamides. The environment of the Crystal Hall is so down-to-earth, it stands to reason that it shouldn't scare people.

"Are you alright, Palamy?" Philaeos asked worriedly, "Why don't I go talk to Daddy and change the venue of the dinner?" "No! I really don't!" Palamides leaned his back against the wall, deliberately not looking at the scenery behind him or under his feet: "It's still thirty minutes before the party starts, right? I need to go out for a walk and catch my breath." When I change my mood and come back, there should be no problem. "Okay then. Please stay safe. Celeos pushed open the door to the box and sent Palamides out.

The leopard warrior ran to the elevator as if he had fled, and took the high-speed elevator back to the first floor of the Cairo Hotel.
