Chapter 239 Father Comes Forward
On the other side, Miss Shen Yiyi, who had just caused a great stir, saw that no one was paying attention to her anymore, so she quickly moved to Talcoco, stretched out her hand, and said pretentiously:
"Beautiful Miss Talcoco, may I have the honor of inviting you to dinner?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Tarko slapped Shen Yiyi's hand away and said in a low voice:
"What on earth are you playing at? You're almost scaring me to death! Tell me the truth, what is your next plan? How do you want me to cooperate?"
Shen Yiyi kept her expression unchanged and just gestured to the person beside her with her eyes.
Talkoko turned his head and saw that the first heir to the throne of the Sun Yuan Kingdom, the eldest prince Steve, was talking to a servant not far away.
At the same time, he looked over here from time to time, obviously asking carefully about what had just happened.
Shen Yiyi whispered to Talcoco:
"I just offended the Second Prince severely. I was brought to the dinner by Elizabeth, and I just happened to be a newcomer to the Slaughter Blade Blood Shadow Army."
"I think it would be strange if the first heir to the throne of the Sun Yuan Kingdom didn't want to come up and ask about my well-being and take me under his wing. So, we just need to let nature take its course."
Hearing this, Talkoko nodded slightly, put on a reserved expression, gently stepped forward, took Qin Xinghe's arm, and walked towards the hall where the dinner was held.

Of course, the two of them deliberately walked slowly, wanting to create an opportunity to meet the eldest prince Steve by chance.
But for some reason, when the two men were almost at the entrance of the hall, the eldest prince behind them was still talking to the people beside him, and had no intention of moving forward.
Helplessly, the two of them could not stay for long and could only enter the rest area of the hall.
This lounge area is located between the main banquet area and the main entrance and is a more casual place.
Because the space is large enough and people are very conscious of each other and stay relatively far away, as long as you speak in a low voice, you don't have to worry about being heard by people nearby.
Qin Xinghe and Talcoko, who entered the rest area, immediately saw the legion commander Mai Tornado who was also there.
Next to him stood the only two ladies of the Slaughter Blade Blood Shadow Army - Natalia and Elizabeth. The three of them were talking in low voices.
As for the second prince Dennis who had just led the way for them, he had disappeared.
Seeing Qin Xinghe and Tal Koko entering the rest area, Elizabeth waved to them from a distance and called them over.
When Qin Xinghe approached, without waiting for him to speak, the legion commander Mai Xuanfeng said, "Chief Engineer Qin, it seems that you have just caused a big trouble."
"Ah? Is that so?" Qin Xinghe showed an aggrieved expression, "Captain, but what I said is true! It's just that they teamed up to bully me and kicked me out of the dinner. It's really unfair!"
At this time, Natalia, who was standing next to McFlurry, snorted coldly:
"Elizabeth, since you brought this person to the royal banquet, you should tell him in advance what to do and what not to do."
"No matter how much of a jerk Ducati is, he is still a superior person after all, and that half-blood cannot comment on him."
These words were very sarcastic. However, Qin Xinghe seemed not to hear the subtext, and instead showed a puzzled expression:
"That peacock is worthy of being called a superior person? I always feel that he is not even as good as a mixed-blood like me!"
"If we talk about upper-class nobles with pure bloodlines, I think they should be people like General McTornado and Miss Natalia. Only they can be called true royal nobles."
"As for that Ducati, I think he can only be called an inferior person, a lowly one!"
Seeing Qin Xinghe's indignant look, Mai Tornado and Natalia suddenly didn't know what to say.
In their hearts, they tentatively concluded that Qin Xinghe was a so-called "naive person" who didn't understand the ways of the world and put all his intelligence and talents into modifying the tree armor.
Of course, such people are not uncommon, and given their experiences, it is understandable.

McFlurry thought of this and nodded without responding.
"Let's put this matter aside for now. Now that we are here, let's enjoy the dinner."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the banquet area.
Suddenly, he stopped again, turned his head to look at Natalia, as if he remembered something, and said to Qin Xinghe:
"I heard that Chief Engineer Qin had a good impression of Nana. Why don't you two have more exchanges during the dance after the dinner?"
Having said this, he looked at Elizabeth who was standing next to Natalia and said thoughtfully:
"Yiyi, can I invite you to be my date at the dance after dinner?"
Hearing this, Elizabeth seemed to be struck by a huge lightning called happiness. She raised her head happily and looked at McFlurry. Just as she was about to agree, she hesitated. She turned her head to look at Natalia beside her and said hesitantly, "But isn't your female companion Miss Nana?"
Hearing this, McFlurry laughed out loud:
"If Chief Engineer Qin doesn't invite Nana later, I think the people who want to dance with her will line up from here to Rumenghai. She won't have to worry about not having a male partner."
Hearing this, Elizabeth smiled happily: "Then I am really honored! But... my dancing skills are average, I hope you don't look down on me later."
Elizabeth, who had always had a crush on McFlurry, now had eyes sparkling like two gems, and two peach blossoms bloomed on her jade-like cheeks. She was so beautiful that even McFlurry forgot to breathe.
At this time, our Miss Shen watched the whole process from behind and couldn't help but secretly click her tongue:
"This man started flirting right in front of his childhood sweetheart. It's too exciting!"
Then, she quietly took half a step forward, trying to see the expression on Natalia's face, but... she didn't find any emotional fluctuations at all.
This made Shen Yiyi, who had originally wanted to see a good show of two women fighting for one man, start to complain in disappointment:
"Hehe, Natalia must be pretending to be calm. She might be tearing Elizabeth into eight pieces in her heart. I must get the truth out of her later."
And how could Talkoko, who had always been by her side, not know about the little evil taste in her best friend's heart?
So, she secretly exerted force with her hands, grabbed and twisted the tender flesh on the inside of Shen Yiyi's arm, and immediately made Miss Shen, who was burning with the fire of gossip, put on a mask of pain.
Just as the group was about to leave the rest area, a man ran over from the other side, panting and saying, "General McTornado, everyone, please stay, please wait a moment!"

Everyone turned around and took a closer look. It turned out to be the father of the troublesome little peacock Ducati, Dusseldorf. He was also the Minister of Information of the Sun Kite Kingdom.
I believe he has already known what happened from several aspects at this time.
This matter can be big or small. If it happened at another time and place, I believe it can be easily suppressed.
However, it happened today when so many upper-class nobles gathered together. It concerns the reputation of their entire Dussel family and the second prince Denis who is closely related to them.
At this point, if we wait until everyone has entered the banquet hall and taken their seats, there will be no chance to reduce the impact of this incident.
This matter will become everyone’s favorite topic of conversation before the dinner begins, and then spread throughout the entire Riyuan Kingdom, and even most of the world, through the connections of these upper-class people.
By then, to put it more seriously, it is not certain whether I can still sit in this position.
Therefore, Dusseldorf did not care about his not-so-flexible legs and feet, and almost jumped all the way to the front of McFlurry and his group:
"General Mai, what happened just now is not what you think. There are some misunderstandings. I want to clarify it with Chief Engineer Qin. Do you think it's okay?"
McFlurry frowned.
He had just heard Elizabeth's account of the whole process, not to mention that Qin Xinghe had already played the evidence in public.
Even if he doesn't produce any evidence, what this idiot said is actually more credible than what Ducati's playboy Peacock said.
