Chapter 527: The Despicable at the Banquet
"It's really the grief of my life that I can't get your heart, at least in the end, please take a glass of wine with me as our last memory, please Miss Carona!" the personable aristocratic young man raised the wine glass in his hand and said very sadly, if it weren't for the fact that he had put something in Miss Carona's wine glass before, perhaps he really looked like an infatuated son.
Although the aristocratic girl named Carona was a little disgusted with the man in front of her, but the other party pleaded like this, and Carona still raised her glass in aristocratic manners: "Okay, this is the last time, I hope you won't bother me in the future, you are not suitable for me to find other girls." ”
The aristocratic young man nodded with a sigh, but at the moment when he buried his head, the young man's face showed a treacherous expression: "Then I'll drink it first!"
Seeing this, Karona closed her eyes slightly and brought the wine glass to her mouth to drink it all, but just as Karona began to tilt the wine glass, she suddenly grabbed the wine glass firmly with one hand and stopped Carona's action. Karona, who sensed that the situation was wrong, suddenly opened her eyes and found that a handsome young man was standing in front of her, and grabbed her wine glass very impolitely, and before Carona could ask what was going on, the other party had already forcibly snatched the wine glass in her hand by brute force.
"Mr. Lelouch!?"
On the side, Isis looked at Lelouch's almost rude behavior in surprise, just now Lelouch didn't know why he suddenly stopped, and then before he could come to his senses, he stepped aside and made this kind of behavior.
"Hey~ what are you doing?" the personable young man immediately asked dissatisfiedly as soon as he saw that the good thing had been stirred up.
Lu Lu Xiu didn't pay attention to the other party, but squinted his eyes and looked at the wine glass carefully, stretched out a finger to dip it in the wine and tasted it, Lu Lu Xiu frowned, and then unceremoniously poured the entire glass of red wine on the young man.
"Yikes!!"
Carona on the side screamed, and Isis covered her mouth in surprise and didn't know why Lelouch behaved like this.
Lelouch looked at the aristocratic young man who was spilled with wine in a panic and said in a disdainful tone: "It's very good~ Quietly added drugs that can make people delirious to this young lady's wine, tell me what are you going to do next when this young lady drinks it?"
As soon as these words came out, Karona stood up from her seat alertly, and took a few steps back to Lelouch's position. This move obviously shows that Carona believes in Lelouch who she never knew more than the aristocratic young man in front of her.
The aristocratic young man looked at Karona's actions and then at Lelouch and suddenly became angry: "Who are you!?
At this time, there were already many guests gathered around, and it was obvious that 'watching the play' was an instinctive behavior of human beings, and this instinct was the identity of some men, women, and children. Many nobles and merchants around them were chattering, but when they saw Lelouch, some of them showed a slightly mocking smile to which noble young man. It is possible to be entertained by President Joseph himself, and to be able to enter the venue directly from a specific entrance without inspection. It was clear that the young man, who had recently made a name for himself in the Free City, was a guest of honor invited by the House of Westphalia, and how could the guards have gotten rid of the dignitaries without the permission of their master.
Just like the conjecture of the surrounding guests, when the guards who rushed to hear the news saw Lu Lu Xiu, not only did they not rush people, but hurriedly asked what happened to Lu Lu Xiu, and the aristocratic young man who was splashed with a drink was left aside and ignored it. It was evident that the aristocratic young man was unusually annoyed by this situation, and his anger soon exceeded the limits of his patience.
"Is this the hospitality of your Westphalian Chamber of Commerce? a madman poured wine on me, and you still protected that madman!"
At the same time as the aristocratic young man was angry, Alisa also hurried to Lelouxiu's side, and after looking at the situation, Elisa quickly whispered a few words in Leluxiu's ear to explain the identity of the aristocratic young man.
"You don't know who he is?" Lelouch heard an interesting answer.
Alyssa nodded. Obviously, there is only one situation for people who don't even know Alisa in the Free City, that is, fame and status are not in Elisa's eyes at all, and the other party may just be a small chamber of commerce or a small nobleman who is not worth remembering his name.
And Lelouxiu's words angered the noble young man again, seeing that the other party did not defend himself at all, the aristocratic young man was angry and waved his fist at Leluxiu, but several guards on the side immediately stepped forward to stop him.
"You bastard! Do you know who I am? Dare to splash me with wine!" The aristocratic young man who was held up by the three guards kept struggling and scolding: "Let go of me, is this how you Westphalia Chamber of Commerce treats guests? He poured my wine first, you guys actually ┉┉"
And at this time, President Joseph also hurried over: "What happened to Your Excellency Lelouch?"
"Nothing. It's just that my sense of justice doesn't allow me to be indifferent when I see someone add something to a young lady's glass that shouldn't be added. ”
Compared with the angry appearance of a noble young man, Lelouch's gentle and elegant attitude made people feel that what he said was more worthy of trust than the other party. Isis also suddenly realized, it turned out that Lelouch did this kind of behavior for this reason, slightly covering his face with a feather fan, Isis showed a disdainful look at the aristocratic youth, and Ethis, who is also a woman, naturally hates this kind of man who uses three indiscriminate means, Lelouch is willing to offend the other party and make this kind of righteous act is really more impressive.
"Don't listen to this bastard's nonsense, he somehow came up to me and splashed me with a drink. Miss Carona believes me, it is this impudent person who is framing me!" Seeing that President Joseph had come, the aristocratic young man also stopped struggling, but the scolding in his mouth continued.
In fact, as far as psychology is concerned, even if one of the parties to a conflict is at fault, but can calmly explain the situation, the neutral mediator will be more receptive to his statement. On the contrary, even if the other party is reasonable, but the foul words in his mouth are constantly abusive, and even the arrogant attitude has interrupted the other party's defense many times, this kind of behavior will make any mediator have the courage to be vicious and protect the other party, after all, no one likes to have someone create mental garbage in their ears.
Now the aristocratic youth had obviously forgotten about it, and when he kept making noise, Joseph, as the president, believed in Lelouch even more.
"Okay~ Mr. Gonov, it's just an accident, I hope this little accident doesn't affect ┉┉"
"What is an accident? Are you blind? Don't you see the wine stains on my clothes? This guy came up and provoked me to pour wine on me!"
The angry Gonov completely ignored President Joseph's intention to be a peacemaker, obviously his plan for tonight had been messed up by that guy named Lelouch, and Karona, who had been coveting her for a long time, was now obviously on guard, and it was impossible for her to find such a good opportunity today! If it weren't for this bastard's own business, Karona would have boarded her carriage and returned to the mansion to offer her beautiful body to herself.
Joseph frowned, as the branch president of the Westphalian Family Chamber of Commerce, there are really not many people in the free city who dare to scold themselves with this attitude, and now a hairy boy who doesn't know which small chamber of commerce he ran from dares to give himself such a face. Do you damn ant really think that you are a guest and can casually press yourself as a host to the point that you dare not speak?
Joseph, who was namelessly on fire, shook the fat on his face, and said to Gnov with a smile: "Tonight is the anniversary of the Westphalian Family Branch, and as the organizer and inviter, I have the obligation to ensure the safety of the lives and property of all the guests. Why don't you do this, I'll ask the mage to check the drink to see if there is any problem, if there is no problem, then ┉┉"
Saying this, Joseph glanced at Lelouch.
Smiling slightly, Lelouch replied without hesitation: "If I have framed and damaged the reputation of this gentleman, then I am willing to compensate you with a million miles and kneel down to apologize to you in person." ”
A million miles!?
Some of the guests and nobles of the small chamber of commerce let out exclamations, don't look at the merchants and nobles present dressed gorgeously one by one, in order to maintain their own extravagant life, many nobles and businessmen are actually unable to make ends meet, one million miles is indeed not a big number, but it is by no means a small amount of money, at least many people present would never dare to throw out a million miles to bet with others so lightly.
After Lelouch threw out this sentence, all the eyes on the field suddenly focused on Gnov, since the other party has thrown out such a great sincerity, if Gnov does not dare to accept it, it will be obvious that this seemingly personable aristocratic young man is actually a despicable person who likes to use three indiscriminate means.
For a while, Gnov panicked, and he naturally didn't dare to let the mage check the wine, but the problem is that it is difficult to ride a tiger now, and if he agrees, he will be exposed and not agree, which is equivalent to exposure. The gossip will probably be conveyed to each other in the mouths of the merchants when the sun rises tomorrow morning, and I am afraid that I will not have the face to stay in the upper area in my life.
Just when Gonov was embarrassed, he suddenly found that Karona was looking at him with anger, and as if he had been lit a lead, Gonov stretched out his finger and stammered at Luluxiu: "You are insulting me! Insulting the personality of a nobleman." You are utterly rude!"
Insulting you?
Laughter erupted from the crowd of onlookers, who looked at Gonov as if they were watching a burlesque.
"I'm going to duel with you!!You've insulted me! I've insulted the glory of a nobleman, the glory of my family!!I'm going to duel with you, you despicable coward!!"
As if the Roaring Emperor, Gnov no longer yelled as he used to be, and Joseph sneered disdainfully and was about to open his mouth for the guards to throw the fool out, when Lelouch suddenly stepped forward. (To be continued......)
