Fighting Break Sphere: My Days as a Tutor at Canaan College

Chapter 158 Dinner Party
In the courtyard.

Watching Xiao Yue gradually disappear from his sight, Liu Xi walked forward and closed the gate.

He was of course very concerned about Xiao Yue's improvement in strength, otherwise he wouldn't have been so shameless as to come to Xiao Yan and ask for the foundation-building spirit liquid.

Part of the reason, of course, is that the sooner Xiao Yue's strength level is improved, the sooner he can obtain the unknown random rewards issued by the system.

But then again, after spending some time together, Xiao Yue's strength has improved. In addition to the benefits the system can bring him, he also sincerely hopes that Xiao Yue can change his own situation by becoming stronger.

I looked up at the sky and found that while I was talking with Xiao Yue, it was already dusk without me noticing.

He did not forget that there was a dinner party in the evening that Xiao Zhan asked him to attend, so he walked to the bathroom beside the house and took a nice cold shower in the hot summer day.

Then he changed into a decent light-colored dress and walked out of the house. The sky outside had already darkened.

Outside the courtyard, two maids from the Xiao family who had just stopped by were waiting for him at the gate.

"Let's go. I'll trouble you two to lead the way."

Liu Xi walked up to the two maids with his hands behind his back and said with a warm smile on his face.

"Master Liu Xi, you are too polite. These are all our duties. It is our honor to lead you, Master."

The two maids were very good at speaking and had pretty looks. It was obvious that the Xiao family had spent some effort to train them specially. They were usually used to entertain foreign guests at banquets.

As he walked out of the villa, the two maids accompanied him on his left and right.

"I'm leading the way, so just go ahead. I don't care."

Liu Xi raised his chin slightly and said.

Hearing this, the two maids looked at each other, then nodded their heads in agreement, but only one of them stepped forward, while the other one remained by Liu Xi's side.

Liu Xi didn't have to be too particular because he was a distinguished guest and had the status of an alchemist, so he could say and do whatever he wanted.

But they can't do that, there is a strict hierarchy and everything has to follow the rules.

If one of them walked in front of Liu Xi, it could be said that she was really doing it to lead the way, but if both of them walked in front of Liu Xi and one of them followed behind without anyone to accompany her, that would be chaos!

In that situation, you would find it a little weird just by looking at it.

If you don’t know, you might think they are deliberately ignoring the guests, wondering if the host is trying to convey some message? !

See this.

Liu Xi glanced at the two maids and said nothing more.

In this Douqi continent with strict levels and classes, the people in this world have their own set of rules of conduct that they follow.

With his ability, he naturally didn't think about influencing or changing anything.

Coming to this world, all he has to do is to "adapt to local customs".

Moreover, in other words, he is not that great or selfless. As an alchemist, he is considered a member of the "upper class" in this world.

Isn’t status and position, with all the privileges, benefits and enjoyment that it brings, great?
Why think about change?

What's more, some essential things are simply impossible to change!
……

The dinner was held in a magnificent building behind the Xiao family's square.

It was not too far away. In half an incense stick's time, Liu Xi, led by two maids, arrived in front of this magnificently decorated three-story building.

"Master Liu Xi, this is it."

The two maids bowed slightly.

Seeing this, Liu Xi's eyes flickered slightly and said:
"Why don't you two come in with me?"

"No, Master Liu Xi. We two maids have other tasks to do. There are others in the building who will take care of the reception. Master, just go in without worry."

One of the more mature maids replied.

Hearing this, Liu Xi curled his lips.

Well, these two pretty maids who seemed to be good in every way, turned out not to serve him alone the whole time!

What does he mean by “other tasks”? I’m afraid he is going to other places to pick up some other guests.

The Xiao family is somewhat petty..., Liu Xi thought to himself.

However, what he didn't know was that in the entire Xiao family, the number of beautiful maids of this level that he thought was "not bad" was less than a handful.

As for today's dinner, the Xiao family ostensibly invited all the important people in Wutan City... ahem, including the Gale family and the Oba family...

Although for some people, even if they receive an invitation, whether to come or not is another matter.

But even so, there are still many distinguished guests who need to be received.

Under such circumstances, the fact that the Xiao family was able to send two maids of such "quality" to pick him up here at one time was enough to show how much they valued him.

He walked straight into the building, and just as the two maids had said, as soon as he stepped inside, maids in thin spruce clothes came up to greet him. There were five, six, seven or eight of them at a time, surrounding him in the middle and were extremely enthusiastic.

The fragrance lingered in the air. Liu Xi coughed lightly with an expressionless face, and sent a few people away, leaving only one person by his side.

"Um, why do you all look like you know me?"

Liu Xi asked casually, touching his nose which was a little itchy from the rich fragrance just now.

"Master Liu Xi, for an important person like you, we each had a portrait in hand and memorized it specifically."

The maid beside her told her everything she knew.

Liu Xi nodded, then looked around the first floor of the huge building.

There were no seats arranged in this building, only rows of five-foot-high platforms for holding wine, drinks, melons and fruits.

Moreover, most of them were ordinary guests, and there were also some members of the Xiao family of average status who were walking around and communicating. Liu Xi looked around, but didn't see any acquaintances who looked familiar.

"Sir, the clan leader and the important guests are all on the third floor. Do you need to go up directly?"

The maid asked at the right time.

"No, let's go to the second floor first."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Xi waved his hand.

"Then please come this way, sir..."

……

After a moment, the second floor of the building.

The place here is obviously different from the first floor. First of all, there are evenly distributed carved low tables on both sides. One or two people can sit behind each low table, and cups and dishes are prepared on the tables, waiting for people to take their seats.

Secondly, in the center of the second floor is a half-foot high arc-shaped platform. This platform is extremely large, nearly ten feet square.

As for its function, it is not difficult to imagine that people can use it to fight, exchange ideas, dance, etc.

Standing in the corridor, before stepping in, Liu Xi looked into the distance.

It is not difficult to see that the people on this floor are quite different from those downstairs. Their temperament and dress are of a higher level.

Suddenly, two extremely beautiful women with outstanding looks appeared in his eyes.
