Traveling Frog: Burning Fruit at the Start - Chapter 215
c215 unexpected invitation
“Liu Xia, this way!”
When we arrived at the appointed place, as soon as we opened the door and walked in, we heard Jiang Ting’s shout.
Liu Xia followed the sound and looked over. Jiang Ting was sitting by the window.
In order to meet Liu Xia today, Jiang Ting also made careful preparations. She specially put on her most beautiful long dress and put on light makeup.
The charm of Chinese women is vividly displayed.
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Liu Xia walked to the seat, gently opened the stool, and sat down like a gentleman.
“It doesn’t matter, I just arrived.”
Jiang Ting would not tell Liu Xia how hard she worked to arrive early.
Liu Xia casually ordered some snacks and drinks and began to chat with Jiang Ting.
With the deliberate cooperation of the other party, the communication between the two was extremely smooth.
Halfway through the meal, Liu Xia brought the topic to Luke Manor.
“I remember you said you were working as a servant at Luke Manor, but you’re no longer there now, right?”
Liu Xia asked pretending to be concerned.
The latter’s cheeks suddenly turned red, he lowered his head shyly and spoke in a small voice.
“That… that, I’m gone.”
“For safety reasons, I also changed my place of residence.”
Later, Liu Xia took advantage of this entry point to continue the topic.
Because Jiang Ting had an inexplicable liking for Liu Xia, she almost always told her everything. Inadvertently, she revealed a lot of information to Liu Xia.
About an hour later, Liu Xia finally collected all the information he wanted to know.
The meeting between the two also came to an end.
Before leaving, Liu Xia asked her to pay attention to her safety and take her back to China after she finished her work.
Jiang Ting blushed and nodded, too shy to look at him.
Looking at Jiang Ting who had walked away, Liu Xia always felt as if he had been misunderstood by the other party.
There are still three days until the competition.
Lin Yuchen proposed that everyone conduct a special assault training and learn from each other to improve their actual combat experience.
Liu Xia, as someone who plays a role in the team, naturally does not need to participate.
This also made him happy and relaxed.
After sending Jiang Ting away, Liu Xia was about to hail a car and go to the location near Luke Manor.
A white man walked towards him and stood directly in front of him.
“Are you Mr. Liu Xia?”
The other party’s tone was very polite, and he had a formulaic smile on his face. It was impossible to tell whether he was an enemy or a friend.
“I am, who are you?”
Liu Xia was very sure that he had never seen this white man.
“I’m Robin from the Alliance. Our vice president Smith would like to ask you to meet. I wonder if you have time now?”
The other party is neither humble nor arrogant, and his attitude is also very respectful.
Will the alliance look for you?
This made Liu Xia a little confused.
He had never interacted with them at all, and now they suddenly came to find him, which had to make Liu Xia think a little.
Seeing Liu Xia’s hesitation, Robin quickly added.
“It was Dean Baggio who specifically told our president to meet you. Our President Wilson happened to be in retreat, so we arranged for Vice President Smith to meet with you.”
It turned out to be Dean Baggio’s arrangement.
In this case, there is no harm in taking a trip by yourself.
“Then please ask Mr. Robin to lead the way.”
Then, Robin waved on the street, and an ordinary car stopped in front of the two of them.
Robin opened the rear door gracefully, stretched out his left hand, and made a gesture of invitation.
Liu Xia signaled and sat directly in the car.
Although this car looks ordinary on the outside, once you step inside you realize that it is extremely luxurious.
“The car is equipped with a spirit gathering array? This alliance is too arrogant!”
Liu Xia felt surrounded by the rich spiritual energy and couldn’t help but admire.
Robin on the side raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a shallow smile.
When many people made this car for the first time, they would show the same surprised expression as Liu Xia. He was already used to it.
After walking together for a while, the vehicle stopped outside the gate of a manor.
Looking into the manor from the gate, a European-style castle stands among them.
At this time, the gate slowly opened, and the car slowly drove along the road into the manor.
“Welcome Mr. Liu Xia, I am Mr. Smith’s butler. My young master has been waiting for you for a long time.”
As soon as Liu Xia got out of the car, a middle-aged man wearing a black tuxedo and gold-rimmed glasses came up to him.
Finding that the other party’s reception was so grand, Liu Xia nodded slightly and expressed his gratitude.
“Good work.”
After passing through a long corridor filled with oil paintings, the three of them came to a wide hall.
In the center of the hall, there was a long table, and a young man was sitting at the table’s owner’s seat.
Seeing the three people entering the door, he immediately stood up and walked over on his own initiative, stretched out his right hand and said.
“Hello Mr. Liu Xia!”
With others so enthusiastic, Liu Xia was naturally not behind. A smile immediately appeared on his face, and he stretched out his right hand and held it tightly with the other person.
“Hello, Mr. Smith?”
Since he had never met Smith, Liu Xia could only ask one question.
“I am Smith. As a noble etiquette, I should have sent an invitation to Mr. Liu Xia first. But because the president was in a hurry, I took the liberty to invite you directly on the street.”
Liu Xia quietly looked at the young man in front of him.
He exudes a kind of gentleness and elegance in his movements, like a handsome young man, a very gentleman.
Based on this alone, Liu Xia can be sure that the other party is definitely the heir apparent of the family.
After brief greetings, the guest of honor took his seat.
Smith went straight to the point. He heard that Liu Xia easily defeated the second-in-command of the Skull and Bones Society, and Dean Baggio strongly recommended that President Wilson communicate with him more.
That’s why the two met at this moment.
This made Liu Xia even more confused.
“Then what did the dean say specifically?”
“He said that Mr. Liu Xia, you are very powerful, and he hopes that the president can have a discussion with you.”
“But… with all due respect, judging from Mr. Liu Xia’s aura, it seems that he only has C-level strength.”
Smith’s apologetic eyes made Liu Xia feel a little funny.
“To be honest, I really only have C-level strength. As for what the dean said about my strength, he was praising me.”
“If we really want to say that we are strong, Lin Yuchen, the captain of our team this time, is the most powerful.”
Seeing Liu Xia’s very candid attitude, Smith suddenly felt a little confused.
Could it be that Dean Baggio made a mistake? With Liu Xia’s strength, is he really qualified to compete with President Wilson?
But then Smith thought about it, a night watchman with only C-level strength was already very weird.
He had heard that there were no weaklings among the night watchmen, and they must have at least A-level strength.
As for the Liu Xia in front of him, he could join the Night Watch with only C-level strength, so there must be some special circumstances involved.
“However, since Dean Baggio said it, President Wilson happens to be unavailable.”
“If Mr. Liu Xia doesn’t mind it, I would like to ask you for advice.”
