Oliver looked at Kite and asked, "Is she the Lilia that you've been talking about? Aren't you going to introduce her? "
It was only then that Kite reacted. Thinking of his achievements in the Northern Ice Region, he lifted his head, and a hint of confidence flashed in his eyes. He looked at Lilia and said, "This is my cousin, Oliver. I've come to the Northern Ice Region with him to do business. Our clan has always had ore transactions in the Northern Ice Region, and Cousin Oliver is the person in charge here. Right now, I'm his assistant. "The Pop Clan also has a lot of working relationships with us. That's why we're here at tonight's banquet."
Thinking of how he had spent over ten thousand gold with a single wave of his brush, how he had gotten several tens of Knights to work for him with a single order, and how with the accumulation of countless resources, his strength had also increased at a rapid rate, Kite unknowingly straightened his back.
He threw a glance at Fang Xingjian and felt that the other party looked very ordinary. The clothes he was wearing were also very simple, and he could not sense any energy waves from him at all.
Most of the wariness in Kite's heart disappeared, and he asked curiously, "Lilia, how did you come to the Pop Clan? Is this mister your friend? "
Lilia threw a glance at Fang Xingjian and realized that Fang Xingjian's eyes were still tightly shut, as if he was still cultivating. Therefore, she said, "He's my friend. I just came over to take a look at tonight's banquet."
Kite smiled at Fang Xingjian perfunctorily. He could not be bothered to ask for his identity and just said to Lilia, "Lilia, come with me. I'll introduce you to a few people. No matter what you do in the future, it'll definitely be of great help to you."
At this moment, Kite's heart was filled with the urge to flaunt his connections in the Northern Ice Region to Lilia. It had not been easy for him to meet Lilia, so he must make her stay.
He still had a lot of things he wanted to tell Lilia. Why had she dropped out of school, where had she gone, and why had he not seen her in the Great Western City ever since...
Hearing this, Lilia turned to look at Fang Xingjian. Although Fang Xingjian still did not respond, Lilia still said, "Thank you, but there's no need."
Kite continued to speak with great enthusiasm, "Lilia, there's no need to feel embarrassed. Although I don't know what you're doing now, the few people I'm introducing you to are all important people. As long as you get to know them well, you'll be able to benefit greatly no matter which field you're in."
Oliver, who was at the side, frowned slightly when he saw Lilia glancing at Fang Xingjian from time to time. He knew that the relationship between Lilia and Fang Xingjian was probably not simple.
He patted Kate on the shoulder and said, "Forget it. If she doesn't want to go, then go. I told Bruce about you the day before yesterday. He wants to see you today. Come with me."
Initially, Kite was still a little reluctant to part with her. However, when he heard the words' Bruce ', his expression immediately changed. He nodded at Lilia and said, "Then Lilia, I'll go meet an important person first. You must wait for me. I'll come and look for you later."
With that, he was dragged away by Oliver. Not long after they left, Oliver said to Kite, "Silly kid, your goddess seems to have a special relationship with that guy."
"What? That's impossible. That guy looks so mediocre. They're probably just ordinary friends. "
Oliver grinned and said, "Haven't you noticed? Every time you ask Lilia a question, Lilia will look at that guy. It's as if he's her pillar of support. "Moreover, it's not only outstanding guys who are attractive. Some guys don't have much ability, but they just happen to know how to coax girls. They're also very popular. "
Kite frowned slightly, as if he wanted to go back immediately.
Oliver shook his head and said helplessly, "Why are you being so rash? Are you thinking of beating that guy up? Or are you going to question Lilia? How childish. Before dealing with others, you should first find out how good they are. "
Kite asked puzzledly, "How?"
Oliver looked at Kite with a relaxed expression, as if he was playing a game. To him, taking liberties with his subordinates was also a form of entertainment.
He said, "All the guests who are here today have a name list. Later on, I'll get someone to look at the name of the guy who came with Lilia. We'll basically know who he is.
"These are just small matters. Which place doesn't have women? "They're just two minor characters. We can deal with them anytime.
"The key is Bruce.
"Let me tell you, I'm going to introduce you to Bruce today. Don't mess it up.
"I mentioned your name to him a few times before he was willing to meet you. There's no need for me to say more about how amazing Bruce is. Later on, you must perform well."
Kite nodded. Thinking of how he was about to meet Bruce, his gaze became a little nervous.
Bruce was the Eldest Young Master of the Henry Clan, a top notch clan in the Northern Ice Region. Two generations of the clan had been the Northern Ice Region's Governor. After 100 years, they could be said to have deep roots in the entire Northern Ice Region and possessed extraordinary influence.
After the two Governors' terms ended, the Henry Clan moved to the Northern Ice Region and instantly became the number one clan in the Northern Ice Region.
It could be said that in the Northern Ice Region, without the care of the Henry Clan, it would be like living in two different worlds.
The current Eldest Young Master of the Henry Clan, Bruce, was already a level 29 Conferred Knight at a young age. Moreover, under his management, the Henry Clan had already taken up over 70% of the Northern Ice Region's ores market. The Henry Clan was undoubtedly the overlord, and even the current Governor had summoned him many times. He could be said to be well-versed in both the pen and the sword.
Although he had yet to take full control of the Henry Clan, everyone already saw him as the next clan head of the Henry Clan.
Kite followed his cousin, Oliver, to a corner of the lawn and saw many young masters and young ladies, each of them exuding an air of nobility. All of them were surrounding a young man.
This young man was dressed in a dark golden suit, holding a scepter in one hand and wearing a ring with an emerald on his index finger. He exuded a disposition that had been passed down in aristocratic clans for several decades or even 100 years. He was elegant, mysterious, and had a low-profile nobility.
It was the Henry Clan's Eldest Young Master, Bruce.
Hearing Kite's and Oliver's voices, Bruce laughed out loud. "Look who's here? My brother, Oliver. "
With just a casual sentence, Bruce gave off the feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze. He gave Oliver a light hug, looked at Kite, and said, "This must be the Kite that you've always mentioned to me? I've heard about the matter at the Black Stone Mine. You've done well. "
Kite nodded, feeling overwhelmed by the favor, and said, "You're praising me too much. Compared to your great investment in the canal, what I've done is nothing much."
"Don't be nervous. You're Oliver's brother, so you're one of us." Bruce patted Kite's shoulder warmly. With just a few words, he had closed the distance between the two of them. He was really a born leader.
