Chapter 47: My Young Lady is Escaping an Arranged Marriage~
The banquet Zhao Haifeng invited him to was scheduled to begin in the evening.
Luo Sheng browsed the shopping mall until evening, hurriedly bought a new formal suit, and rode his motorcycle to the designated location.
Of course, he was extrely cautious along the way, fearing an ambush.
A European-style banquet hall.
The security guard respectfully said, “Excuse , sir, please show your invitation and register your personal information.”
Luo Sheng handed over the invitation and registered at the entrance. Just as he was about to enter,
“Wait!”
Suddenly, he was stopped by a security guard.
“Hm?”
Luo Sheng was puzzled.
Could it be like those novel cliches from a few years ago, where the protagonist is stopped by security, then shows off and slaps their face?
Just as he was about to ask what was going on,
The security guard rubbed his hands together and said with a friendly smile, “You’re Mr. Luo, right? Welco to the banquet. I’ve long heard of your reputation. I heard you’re most skilled at repairing damaged cards, with a success rate of 90%. Could you help us out?”
Other security guards nodded as well, “Yes, I need your help too. The reward won’t be small.”
Luo Sheng imdiately felt relieved but was also stunned. Was he really this famous?
However, hearing there was a generous reward, he was of course willing to help. After all, he was the great benefactor Luo.
So he said, “No problem. I’ve always been happy to help others since I was young. The reward is up to you, of course, the amount of the reward will determine the quality of your card repair.”
“Of course, we understand. We won’t let you work for free.”
Then everyone took out their damaged cards.
Bronze 6-7 star 【Spider Queen】【Prison Warden】【Leopard Girl】【Nun】were all handed to Luo Sheng, their eyes full of attachnt and reluctance.
Luo Sheng: “…”
He felt sothing was very wrong. These cards were all female, and of all kinds of species.
What shocked him more was that the extent of damage was not small for any of them. Like the 【Nun】 card, which only had one star of power, was almost at the point of shattering.
This is forbidden love!
Luo Sheng felt he needed to wash his hands and see if there was any sll.
The head security guard said, “Please help us. It’s all because we were careless and enhanced them ourselves.”
Other security guards: “That’s right, mainly because we envied the enhancent style of Destiny Master Su God. Enhancing maiden cards with our own hands can greatly improve compatibility and gain their favor, but then they ended up like this.”
Luo Sheng was speechless.
He didn’t expect everyone was into this.
He rembered the genius Card Master from Licheng, now known as Su God. His greatest legend was being surrounded by a bunch of card maidens, which made others envious. So many people blindly followed the trend.
No wonder in recent years, damaged cards have been increasing. This might be the cause.
“No problem. Once I’m done, I’ll return them to you.”
Luo Sheng put away the cards and added their contact information.
“Take this staff passage. You can enter the banquet hall without going through various security checks,” Under the lead of the head security guard, Luo Sheng enjoyed VVIP service.
His VVIP status was achieved under such circumstances.
What slightly concerned him was that these banquet security Card Masters were at least Bronze 8-star level.
Is such a high requirent needed now even for a small security job?
It’s like what people used to say in his previous life, if you can’t even get into college, how will you beco a security guard in the future?
Entering the banquet hall, over a dozen large round tables were scattered around the edges of the hall, leaving a large open space in the middle, filled with various desserts, drinks, fruits, colorful and beautiful.
Just as Luo Sheng was about to find a corner to sit,
He found Su Tianchen, dressed formally, also present.
“Classmate Luo Sheng, you’re here too. Not bad, young talent should socialize more, it will help you in the future. Who knows, you might even find a romantic connection,” he said sincerely.
“I will. By the way… Instructor Su, where’s your daughter?”
“She’s still a child.”
As the two were about to chat for a while.
Suddenly, a “click-clack” shoe sound ca from beside them.
Luo Sheng instinctively turned his head to see a woman with a mature, voluptuous figure, stepping forward on long, snow-white legs, approaching the two of them.
Her red lips were especially alluring, along with her delicate oval face, exuding a capable aura and an older sister charm.
“Is this the Luo Sheng who defeated the family clan with 【Open Door】?” This mature sister sized up Luo Sheng while asking Su Tianchen.
“Yes,” Su Tianchen said.
Seeing Luo Sheng’s confusion, he explained:
“This is Yuchi Xueyao, a special envoy from the Card Alliance. This banquet is held for her. She watched your battle with Xu Tianai a few days ago.”
“Hello, Special Envoy Yuchi.”
Luo Sheng greeted politely, after all, she was a high-ranking official of the Alliance, with considerable power and status.
The fact that Pingcheng held a banquet for her showed her background was extraordinary.
“Just call Sister Yuchi. I think highly of you, a commoner background defeating a family clan heir, especially your Enhancer profession, with the ability to repair damaged cards,” Yuchi Xueyao said with a smile, then took out a card from her chest. A bright red rose tattoo could be seen on her fair chest.
She handed it to Luo Sheng.
It still had so warmth, with a faint sweet fragrance.
Luo Sheng opened the card.
【Black Mask】
Level: Bronze 5-star
Type: Equipnt
Effect: Conceals the wearer’s aura; Blocks ntal power probing; Changes shape according to the wearer’s will.
Description: Guess who I am?
She continued, “This card was given to by the owner of the black market. I’m not interested in the black market, so I’ll give it to you as a eting gift.”
Then she left to continue her diplomatic duties.
Instructor Su Tianchen also left, seemingly representing the academy at this banquet.
At this ti, a voice ca from behind Luo Sheng.
“Luo Sheng, over here!”
He turned around to see Wang Keai, wearing a pink long dress with sheer sleeves and white stockings, sitting at a white-clothed dining table not far away, waving at him.
Qin Jianjia, in a white lace black long dress, black lace gloves and black stockings, was also sitting next to her.
Luo Sheng walked over, and Wang Keai said, “Not bad, you’ve even caught Special Envoy Yuchi’s attention.”
“What’s her background?”
“It’s a big deal. She’s specifically responsible for inspecting the situation in various places. Of course, she’s also an expert professor of the Card Alliance, as well as an ambassador of the Education Departnt. Simply put, she’s like an imperial inspector from ancient tis, an auditor.”
Wang Keai said, showing her two little canine teeth.
Luo Sheng understood roughly.
He guessed that the officials and family clans of Pingcheng held this to curry favor with her.
Because Pingcheng had many secret dealings unknown to outsiders, so it was normal to try to bribe the auditor.
At this ti, Luo Sheng sat with Qin Jianjia and Wang Keai.
So he asked, “What’s the relationship between you two? You seem like best friends but often sche against each other.”
Wang Keai imdiately retorted, “Pah! We’re not best friends!”
Qin Jianjia nodded slightly and said casually, “She’s my defeated opponent.”
“You… hmph! The apartnt you’re living in was given by !”
“Because you lost.”
“If you hadn’t cheated, this young lady wouldn’t have lost!” Wang Keai still argued forcefully.
Qin Jianjia glanced at her and said calmly, “You wet your pants.”
“Okay, I’m your defeated opponent.” Wang Keai imdiately surrendered, sitting there obediently with a forced smile.
She also glared at Luo Sheng fiercely, kicking him with her little foot, even rubbing him with her white stocking.
Hey hey hey, what does this have to do with ?
Luo Sheng rolled his eyes.
And realized that they were a pair of bickering frenemies.
He roughly understood that because Wang Keai lost to Qin Jianjia, the apartnt beca hers.
And he was probably used by Wang Keai to annoy Qin Jianjia. This little girl had a strong desire for revenge.
“By the way, if you have a family, why do you still live in an apartnt?” Luo Sheng asked Qin Jianjia across Wang Keai.
“Huh? You’ve lived there for so long and still don’t know? Of course it’s because our young lady Qin is escaping an arranged marriage!” Wang Keai suddenly interjected, speaking very seriously.
