If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 44 Banquet
"Sure enough, it's very different from what I imagined." Lin Nian in the Anbo Pavilion said with a wry smile, standing on the side and watching the crowd.

It's a banquet rather than a party. Everyone walks in the hall with a polite mask. When they meet, they raise their champagne glasses slightly. Interestingly, the men are graceful and humorous, the ladies are reserved and elegant, and they are divided and orderly under the performance of the cello band.

"Actually, it doesn't make much difference. Banquets and parties are all for eating, drinking, and having fun. The student union party is pretty good. See there?" Mandy accompanied Lin Nian and pointed to the inside of the hall. The place where the long table is displayed, the Boston lobster prepared in pure water on it, all kinds of colorful snacks are surrounded by the champagne tower, and martini and marguerites are served on the tray. All-you-can-eat Rita cocktails.

"Oh, it still seems to be a part of the meaning." Lin Nian couldn't help feeling a lot of excitement when he saw this invigorating scene.

"The number of lobster heads corresponds to the number of people, but there is no limit to the number of diners. I don't think too many people will be interested in those lobsters tonight, but I guess you must be the exception. Seeing you like this, you probably came without eating. Right?" Mandy took a martini from the passing waiter and took a sip, leaving a thin lip print on the mouth of the cup.

"I came here because I didn't eat. Your statement is a bit like saying that I was reincarnated from starvation." Lin Nian corrected the cause and effect relationship: "I haven't reached the point where I go hungry all day for a buffet. , I know very few people who can do this kind of thing, I used to count as one in high school, and now I count as one in college."

"I know in college, Fingal, but isn't the Shilan High School you attended a noble school?"

"Some strange things can happen anywhere. Is Cassel College or an elite college?" Lin Nian blocked Mandy in one sentence.

"Junior brother, come and make a bet, you won't be able to eat lobster tonight, and most likely you have to go back to the bedroom hungry and pick up the leftovers from Fingal's pizza box to fill his stomach." Mandy pursed her mouth.

"Are you betting that I will abide by my demeanor in such an environment where everyone respects each other like a guest? Then you are really betting on the wrong treasure. I used to be a well-known KY." Lin Nian glanced at it at most 30 meters For the dining table outside, he didn't even need a run-up for this distance, and he passed it in two or three steps.

"Then you can try it." Mandy shrugged and said indifferently.

Lin Nian glanced at Mandy and found that she was just leaning against the pillar with her hands behind her back, looking at the crystal chandelier and whistling, as if she was in control of everything. He didn't know where Mandy's confidence came from, don't say a word. There are only lobsters. Even in this environment, he can eat five to start.

So Lin Nian turned around and was about to take the first step, but before he could actually step out, he forcibly retracted his legs because someone was blocking his way.

Under the white deep V women's suit is a healthy wheat-colored skin, a long flaxen hair and a soft shawl falling down, and a woman's face full of South Asian style is outlined under the smudge of the light. At this time, she is holding a A glass of champagne just looked at Lin Nian in front of him.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Lin Nian paused.

"Lin Nian, a freshman transfer student? I've admired the name for a long time. Caesar said that he might have a chance to see you tonight. I thought he was joking, but it seems that our presidential candidate is not a person who likes to talk." The woman raised her glass: "Meet me, the head of the sailing department of the student union, Karsha, a Maldivian."

Lin Nian didn't hold any drink in his hand now. At this moment, Mandy passed by him and put the Margarita in his hand to him, and threw a look of good luck and disappeared on the dance floor. among the crowd.

"Lin Nian, freshman." Lin Nian could only helplessly raised his glass and took a sip.

"Is your girlfriend? It's very beautiful. You can find such a good girl when you just entered school. This shows your 'S' class excellence." Karsha, the head of the sailing department, fluttered her long hair and looked sideways as Mandy disappeared. direction.

"No, she's just my senior sister." Lin Nian waved his hand to explain.

"Really?" Karsa glanced at the wine glass in Lin Nian's hand.

Lin Nian also looked down, and immediately noticed that there was still a red lip mark on the mouth of the cup he was drinking. After he found this, he wiped off the lip mark with a black line on his face: "Misunderstanding, she is a little off line, I'm always so careless, may I ask what you want to do with me?"

"It seems that you haven't participated in this kind of banquet very much." Karsha looked up and down Lin Nian, who was wearing a school uniform, and shook his head with a smile: "Normally, if someone strikes up a conversation with you, you can't ask them what's the matter, but you should chat freely. Some topics that are of interest to both parties, smile and nod after the point is reached, and then separate."

"This is the first time I've attended this kind of banquet, and I even forgot to bring my invitation." Lin Nian shook his head and said, "There are too many people who don't know me, but everyone seems to know me, it feels very strange. "

"It's normal, people who are destined to shine don't need to remember the names of all the grits." Karsha nodded: "I can see that you still need time to adapt to all this, and everything is too much for you right now. Soon, isn't it?"

"Some dazzling, overwhelmed feeling."

"I originally wanted to invite you to join the sailing club, because I heard that your family lives on the coast and must have a very intimate relationship with the sea and waves. I originally prepared the opening remarks: 'Do you like sailing?', but now we talk about After two sentences, I think you will probably answer that I don't like it neatly." Karsa smiled and said, "Because it seems that I have misunderstood something, it seems that there is no metaphor for you to attend the banquet of the student union in the Amber Hall tonight. You haven't made up your mind to choose a team yet."

"Is it really important to stand in line? The Student Union or the Lionheart Club, do we have to make a choice in this school?" Lin Nian glanced at the crowd in the Ambo Pavilion and asked.

"It's not important for ordinary students, but it's very important for you. Maybe you haven't understood the meaning of the 'S' grade." Karsa reached out and pressed Lin Nian's shoulder: "Do you feel it?"

"What did you feel?" Lin Nian asked subconsciously.

"Weight." Karsa withdrew her hand and chuckled, raised her glass and turned to leave: "Perhaps you can learn from Cesar Gattuso in the future, he will know exactly where he is, but right now, Go and enjoy the banquet, 'S' class student, even if the student union party is different from what you imagined, it is still much better than the Lionheart club."

Lin Nian held the glass of wine before he could say anything else, and Karsa had disappeared. He shook his head and felt that the people in this academy, whether they were professors or students, were rambunctious and non-human, and liked to make everything up Cloudy and foggy.

But at least now Lin Nian has not forgotten what his original intention is, choosing to stand between the Lion Heart Club and the Student Union?No, he came to the Ambo Hall to attend a party and was going to eat something to fill his stomach, and now his target Boston Lobster is more than 20 meters away from him.

After clarifying the goal, Lin Nian regained his energy with the glass of wine, and took a step - and then shrank back.

He looked up helplessly and looked in front of him. Someone was blocking his way again. This time, the man who stopped in front of him was a man with brown hair and a cheap suit with a video camera hanging on his chest. Lin years.

"Any advice?" Looking at this guy, Lin Nian always felt like a scout he had met on the street before, and his motives were impure.

"Department of Information, Lester, I want to interview you a few questions. I wonder if I'm free."

"Does the Student Union of the News Department also have a News Department?" Lin Nian pondered and seemed to remember that there was also a News Department in the school.

"No, we are a loose group, but our minister is a member of the student council, so I can have the opportunity to appear here." The man explained.

"Dare to ask who is the head of your family?" Lin Nian narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Fingal Feng, Frings," the man replied.

"Sorry, I'm not free." Lin Nian's face turned black, he turned to the man and slid to the dining table in the distance.
