Chapter 91 Party
"Looking like a human but acting like a dog."
Li looked at Lin Tian in the mirror and muttered a complaint.
Of course, despite saying that, her eyes never left Lin Tian.
"Just the two of us?"
Lin Tian glanced at Bai lying on the bed and casually asked Li.
"No, if you let her take it, people will think it's our child."
Bai, lying on the bed, straightened her tuft of hair.
After getting ready, the two went out together. Outside the small building, they saw a carriage that Li had called in advance. The carriage looked luxuriously decorated, like something only a wealthy family could ride in.
"You called me?"
Looking at the people who were already waiting outside the carriage, Lin Tian couldn't help but rub his eyes.
Dressed in a waiter's uniform, the older man was making a welcoming gesture. Lin Tian wondered just how expensive the carriage must be to offer such a welcoming service.
"No........"
Li looked at the person who was greeting her with complicated emotions. After a moment of silence, she took Lin Tian's arm and walked over.
"Miss."
As Li approached, the old man bowed slightly, respectfully welcoming her, without glancing at Lin Tian once throughout the entire process, as if he didn't exist at all.
Li simply nodded slightly in response to the old man's welcome, then pulled Lin Tian into the carriage.
He is.........
"housekeeper."
Lin Tian's eyes lit up slightly when he heard Li's answer. He wanted to ask more questions, but seeing Li's downcast expression, he swallowed his words.
There shouldn't be any problems tonight...
...................
A grand banquet is being held in a mansion in the wealthy West Side neighborhood, reportedly because it is the birthday of the richest man in West Side.
Why are you eating all the time?
Li glanced at Lin Tian, who was still eating voraciously beside her, and then felt the strange looks around her. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer.
"Why aren't you eating?"
"I don't know them."
Lin Tian disagreed. Although he didn't like the environment, the food was still good. After all, it was an important banquet, so the chef's skills were naturally excellent.
"The young lady's male companion is quite something!"
A middle-aged man with slicked-back hair walked over. He was the host of the banquet, but the fact that someone of such high status called Li "Miss" made Lin Tian think deeply.
"Hello."
"Hello."
Seeing the slick-back-haired man extend his hand, Lin Tian responded politely.
"Go do your own thing and don't bother us."
"okay."
Lily's words silenced the slick-haired man who was about to speak, but he wasn't annoyed. He picked up his wine glass and went to greet the others.
"Who is he?"
Seeing that the slick-haired man had walked away, Lin Tian went up to Li and asked.
"My brother's men."
Your brother's subordinate? You have a brother?
Lin Tian was about to press for more information when a conversation in the distance caught his attention.
Good evening, Mr. Francis!
The man with the slicked-back hair, who hadn't gone far, seemed to have run into an acquaintance and immediately stopped to greet him.
Lin Tian caught the keyword "Francis" and immediately glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, discovering that it was indeed the Francis who had died in the system.
This immediately snapped Lin Tian out of his daze. He hadn't expected that his mission would turn out to be so unexpected.
Upon seeing this, he immediately pretended to eat, eavesdropping on their conversation.
However, the two of them were only talking about trivial topics, mostly praising each other. They kept complimenting each other, which made Lin Tian a little annoyed.
It's probably just a coincidence that they met. After all, they live in the same city, and this guy's background doesn't seem simple, so it's not surprising that he knows Francis.
The two chatted for a while before parting ways. It seemed like a perfectly normal greeting. Afterwards, many people greeted Francis, and he responded to each one with a smile, even exchanging a few words occasionally.
As the banquet progressed, some handsome men and beautiful women began to dance with their companions. Li and Lin Tian remained still; one was deep in thought, while the other was peeking at others out of the corner of his eye.
It was normal for Francis not to move, after all, he was quite old, but Lin Tian noticed something strange: Francis never touched the food and water on the table.
Lin Tian pondered for a moment, then poured two glasses of red wine and slowly walked towards Francis.
"Hello sir!"
Francis looked at the young man raising his glass in front of him, his brows furrowing slightly. It was clear that he had categorized Lin Tian as a young man trying to curry favor.
"Hello."
Francis responded with a single word and then turned his head away, his refusal quite obvious.
Seeing this, Lin Tian did not insist on offering a toast, but instead turned his gaze to the slicked-back hair on the dance floor.
"Hello."
The man with the slicked-back hair was having a great time with a dancer when he suddenly heard someone calling his name. His mood was instantly interrupted, and he frowned slightly before turning around to look.
Upon discovering that the visitor was Lin Tian, he fell silent. After glancing at Li, who was drinking alone in silence, he turned his gaze back, and his tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.
"Is there a problem?"
A smile spread across the man's slicked-back hair; it has to be said that businessmen's faces change very quickly.
"I greatly admire Mr. Francis!"
"I really wanted to have a drink with him, but... Mr. Francis seems to look down on me a bit..."
Lin Tian made an awkward expression, perfectly portraying the feeling of a fan meeting their idol only to be ignored.
"Oh, I get it."
Seeing Lin Tian's expression, the man with the slicked-back hair suddenly realized something. He had thought it was something important, but it turned out to be just a trivial matter.
"I've helped you."
Then, the man with the slicked-back hair took an empty wine glass, poured some red wine into it, and walked towards Francis. Lin Tian's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he immediately followed.
Two minutes later...
"I'm sorry... I'm not feeling well today."
Seeing Francis's refusal, Lin Tian glanced at the slicked-back hair with some disdain.
I really thought you were capable.
Unexpectedly, the slick-haired man was also furious. Although he still had a smiling face, he had cursed Francis hundreds of times in his heart.
That damn old bastard! He was quick to take things when we were working together, but now that I'm offering him a toast, he won't even drink. He's really starting to disregard me!
Just you wait. Once I've finished what the boss assigned me, I'll be the first to expose all your secrets.
Serves you right for not taking me seriously!
Seeing the stalemate, the man with the slicked-back hair quickly smoothed things over, giving himself a way out before pulling Lin Tian away.
Looking at the furious slicked-back hair, Lin Tian didn't feel too disappointed, because he already had the answer in his heart.
Do you resist eating?
