Chapter 21: The Banquet

After leaving the office of the deputy bureau for three days, Fei Lin got into the carriage arranged for him by the security bureau and returned to his residence.

Halfway through the trip, he couldn't help but change his mind.

"Turn around and go to Guiniao Street."

Guiniao Street is the street where his sister Rowling lives, and he decided to visit his sister while he was resting.

"Yes, sir."

Coachman Ken. Darby turned the carriage and headed towards Guiniao Street.

After stopping at a high-end pastry shop called "House of Happiness" and buying some exquisite pastries, Ferrin appeared outside his sister Rowling's residence and rang the doorbell.

"Ma'am, little Kaisha, Mr. Ferrin is here."

When she saw that it was Felin, the little maid opened the door for Felin and shouted loudly.

After a while, a young woman in a family dress and a little girl about four years old who looked like a doll appeared, it was her sister Rowling and her niece Kaisha.

As for the brother-in-law, he should still be at work at this time.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Ferrin coming, Rowling had a smile on her face.

"I'm off today, so I'm here to eat."

Fei Lin said with a smile.

That's when he noticed that his pants had been ripped off.

Looking down, I saw little Kai'Sa calling him "uncle", and when she saw a little joy on his face, she stretched out her hand to him, obviously wanting him to hug him.

"This is the pastry I bought at the Happiness House when I came."

Handing the paper bag containing the pastries to his sister, Ferrin bent down and picked up little Kaisha.

"Come on, come on, why do you still buy things, and it's also the pastries of the Happiness House, the pastries there are too expensive."

Taking the paper bag, Rowling grumbled.

"It's okay, your brother's current salary is to ask you to eat the pastries of the Happy House every day."

Fei Lin said with a smile.

He knew that his sister and little Kai'Sa liked the pastries of the Happy House very much, and the pastries of the Happy House were indeed delicious, not inferior to some of the popular pastries in their previous lives.

"Money is not spent like this, and when you marry a daughter-in-law in the future, what kind of money is not needed?"

Rowling "taught".

After lunch, I played with little Kai'Sa for a while, and it was estimated that when my brother-in-law was about to return, Felin was ready to leave.

Although the relationship with his brother-in-law has eased somewhat, he is still not comfortable in the presence of his brother-in-law, so he decides to leave before his brother-in-law returns.

"Let's go back, and we'll go back after dinner, right?"

Rowling said.

"No, there is still some furniture in the house, I am going to buy some furniture on the way back, if it is late, the furniture store will close."

Ferrin made an excuse, he did have the idea of adding some furniture, the house he lived in now was a bit big, and the furniture he moved there was not enough.

"Okay then."

Rowling had to give up and send Ferrin out of the hospital all the way.

"Felin, you're here, are you ready to leave?"

Just then, a carriage stopped, and on top of it, his brother-in-law, Claude Drey, stepped down.

When he saw Felin, he was different from the cold in the past, and there was enthusiasm on his face.

Not only does Ferrin now work at the Great Widder auction house, but his salary is much higher than his, and he wants to repair their estranged relationship.

"Well, I came here this morning, and I'm going back."

Ferrin nodded, and prepared to board the carriage.

"Don't, Fei Lin don't leave yet, there is a very rare banquet tonight, wait for you to come to this banquet with us."

Claude called out to Ferrin enthusiastically.

"It's not appropriate, is it?"

Ferrin didn't want to accompany Claude to any banquet, so he excused himself as inappropriate.

"This banquet is a dating party, and it is allowed to bring people, but it is better to encourage them."

"Moreover, this party will be attended by many young women from famous families, and it will be an opportunity for you to meet excellent people of the same age and the opposite sex."

Claude said with a wink.

"No need, I've got something to do later-"

Fei Lin refused, if he was still an appraiser, he wouldn't mind expanding his business, as for now, there was no need for that.

However, before he could finish his sentence, he was grabbed by the shoulder.

"I'll take care of everything else in the back row, and you have to come with us to this banquet tonight."

Rowling reached out and grabbed Ferrin's shoulder, and said in a tough and non-negotiable manner.

If it's an ordinary banquet, this banquet is a dating party, and there will be many young women from famous families to participate, so you can't miss it.

Before, she was still worried about Fei Lin's marriage problems, and she could just use this banquet to find a suitable marriage partner for Fei Lin.

Faced with his tough sister Rowling, Ferrin couldn't refuse, but he still went back and changed into a long black dress.

……

Freeman Villa is located in Conston City's East End, where the aristocracy and the wealthy are gathered, and even among the many villas in the East End, the luxury level is enough to rank first.

The owner of the villa, Wilton. Freeman, as well as being the mayor of Conston City, is also a noble earl who is in high demand in the kingdom.

In the evening, one private carriage after another drove into the Freeman Villa, beautifully shaped and varied in style, like a large carriage exhibition.

From a carriage that could only be regarded as ordinary among the many carriages, Ferrin, Rowling, and Claude in formal dresses stepped down and entered the banquet hall.

The huge banquet hall is paved with a red carpet, and it is very warm inside because of the underfloor heating.

At intervals there is a long dining table with a variety of fine food and wine.

Many people dressed up in costume shuttle between them, old friends catch up, and strangers make friends with each other.

Among them, there were many young women, and as Claude said, many young women from famous families attended this banquet.

"Honey, I'm going to start investigating, so I won't accompany you to say hello to your friends."

Arriving here, Rowling's eyes lit up, leaving Claude behind, and he began to find out the news of the young women.

Ferrin, on the other hand, went to the table, took some food from a plate, and ate it to himself.

Because I came to the banquet, I haven't had time to eat dinner yet.

However, his leisure did not last long, and Rowling, who had gathered information, appeared and began to introduce him to the noteworthy young women at the banquet.

"The one who wears the ruffled dress is called Sharon Murphy, the third daughter of the Baron Murphy family, and her family background is good, but her appearance is a little average......"

"The one in the white dress is called Wen Lesa Nortai, her father is an officer of Fengsen Company, and she looks beautiful, but unfortunately her family background is a little worse......"

"The name of the woman in the pink dress is Mina Suvali, the child of a wealthy merchant, and the family is engaged in tea, whether it is family background or appearance, it is the best choice, and it can be used as a target......

……

Next to Ferrin, Rowling babbled on.

Fei Lin really admired her intelligence gathering ability, and in such a short period of time, she had already found so much information.

Suddenly, Felin noticed a figure.

This is a young woman with blue hair, wearing a well-made beige dress, and a beautiful face, but her face is a little cold.

The reason why he noticed this figure was because it was someone he knew, and it was Ivy who he had only met this morning.

"Brother, this level is too high, you can't take it."

Noticing the lingering gaze of Ferrin, Rowling looked over and couldn't help but shake her head and persuade.

"Do you know who she is?"

Fei Lin asked with some curiosity.

From the ring, which is worth at least thousands of gold pounds, it is probably not easy to guess Ivy's identity.

"Ivy. Freeman, the second daughter of the Earl Wilton, who was extremely fond of the Earl of Wilton, was the hoster of the banquet. ”

"I heard that the reason why the Earl of Wilton held this banquet is because she has not been in a good mood lately, and wants her to make some new friends."

After a pause, Rowling said earnestly.

"Although I also want you to find a noble daughter as a marriage partner, even if it is rich."

"But this level is too high, not only is she extremely beautiful, but she is also the daughter of an earl, which is really not something that a family like ours can afford."

"Don't worry, I don't have that in mind."

Looking at her nervous sister, Fei Lin shook her head.

Although I had guessed that Ivy was likely to be the daughter of a nobleman and had a very high status, I didn't expect it to be so high that she was actually the daughter of the Earl of Wilton, who was also known for her dignity among the earls.

At the same time, a doubt arises, it stands to reason that with the identity of the other party, there is no need to join the Kingdom Security Service, why did the other party join the Kingdom Security Service?

"That's good, that's good."

Rowling breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that her brother would be desperate to pursue her brother's head, and the result would only be that she would hit her head and bleed and hurt her deeply.

Suddenly.

I don't know if I felt the gaze, Ivy's gaze suddenly looked this way, just met Feilin's gaze, and Feilin didn't have time to withdraw his gaze.

Fei Lin was embarrassed.

If he hadn't made eye contact with Ivy, he could have pretended not to see Ivy.

But now they have seen each other, and as people who know each other, it is the most basic etiquette to say hello to each other at this kind of banquet.

After a moment's hesitation, thinking of what he had heard about Ivy this morning, he stepped out and walked towards Ivy.

"Hey...... Ferrin, what are you doing? ”

As soon as she breathed a sigh of relief, Rowling couldn't help but be angry when she saw Fei Lin's actions, and Fei Lin didn't seem to have listened to her advice at all.

She stepped forward quickly, trying to pull Fei Lin back, but by this time, Fei Lin had already walked in front of Ivy, and she had to give up pulling Fei Lin away, ready to choose to improvise.

"Miss Ivy."

Ferrin greeted.

"Hmm."

Ivy's face didn't change, but she still responded to Felin's greeting as she did this morning.

Noticing Rowling walking up to Ferrin's side, she asked politely.

"Who is this?"

"This is my sister Rowling. Dre. ”

Ferrin introduced.

It is traditional to change the surname after getting married, so my sister's surname is now Drey, the same as my brother-in-law.
