Sunset Peak, the highest peak in the Yan Kingdom!

According to folk legend, there are immortals living on Sunset Peak and should not be desecrated!

Of course, this is just the imagination of Shengdou Xiaomin, and it cannot be taken seriously at all.

However, at least one thing is certain - there is an expert on Sunset Peak, who is extremely mysterious and unusual.

Nicholas Pickering was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his fiancée had such a big background and was actually from Sunset Peak.

The most important thing in being a human being is to be self-aware. If you can't afford to offend someone, don't do it unless you have to, and don't let your friends do it.

From Nicholas Pickering point of view, Kayson was at least half of his friend, and he didn't seem to be as famous as Sunset Peak - that's what Nicholas Pickering thought anyway - Nicholas Pickering felt it was necessary to save him from danger.

Therefore, Nicholas Pickering walked up to Kayson and Celeste, whose eyes were about to sparkle, and said, "You two, we are all friends, why do you need to get so heated?"

The words were right and the timing was right, but Nicholas Pickering overestimated his own dignity.

Celeste voice was slightly cold: "Who is his friend?"

Kayson said in a calm voice: "She is not my friend!"

Nicholas Pickering had no choice but to say: "You are all my friends, so naturally you are also friends with each other."

Celeste still said the same thing: "Who is your friend?"

Kayson was much more tactful: "You haven't invited me to dinner, so you're not still my friend."

It is said that proud people are very arrogant and difficult to communicate with. Nicholas Pickering finally understood the lesson and was almost depressed.

However, he was kind-hearted and did not give up on these two hopeless guys.

Since there is no way to defeat two people at the same time, let's defeat them individually.

Nicholas Pickering first looked at Celeste and said, "Miss Celeste, just now you said you wanted to treat me to dinner, do you still count?"

Celeste glanced at him indifferently: "Speaking of which, you should be the one who fulfills the friendship of the landlord. If I invite you, wouldn't it be that I am a guest? Do you not mind?"

Nicholas Pickering was very thick-skinned and answered very naturally: "I don't mind, not at all!"

Celeste has a good temper, so she can only nod in agreement - she has never been short of money, and suddenly the other party is not interested, so it doesn't matter if she invites him to a meal.

However, Celeste underestimated Nicholas Pickering's thick skin.

Nicholas Pickering spoke again and asked, "Celeste, can I bring a friend?"

Celeste knew that he was referring to Kayson and said, "He seemed to have said that you are not friends yet."

Nicholas Pickering didn't take it seriously and said, "If he has food to eat, he will be willing to be my friend."

Kayson held the dog's tail grass in his mouth and wanted to refute, but he thought of his foodie nature and had no choice but to shut up and remain silent.

So, the matter was settled like this. Nicholas Pickering, Celeste Yan, Yu Fei and others passed through the crowd and walked towards Chunfeng Tower under the eyes of people with complicated emotions.

Chunfeng Restaurant is the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Ning County. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has a beautiful environment... except that it is expensive, and everything is good.

Fortunately, there was a treat today, so Nicholas Pickering didn't have to worry about being short of money and took people directly to the private room on the third floor.

Kayson and Celeste were sitting on the north and south sides of the wooden table, with their eyes facing each other and clearly distinguishing themselves.

Nicholas Pickering didn't want to offend these two guys, so he could only sit quietly in the west seat.

"This meal is definitely not delicious!"

Nicholas Pickering sighed secretly in his heart, lowered his head and concentrated on drinking tea without squinting.

The venue was silent and the atmosphere was awkward. It was as quiet as a cemetery. Even the sound of drinking tea sounded like the sound of water flowing from the underworld. It was so terrifying!

Unfortunately, Ru Yan and Yu Fei didn't seem to care at all. Nicholas Pickering was the only one who was sitting on pins and needles, constantly changing his sitting position.

"Why are you always moving? Do you have prickly heat?"

Kayson finally couldn't bear it any longer and said what he said was stupid, for fear that others wouldn't know that he was careless.

Nicholas Pickering curled his lips: "Yes, I have prickly heat. Do you have any objections?"

Celeste finally took the opportunity and said, "Sichuan Kayson seems to have opinions about everyone!"

Kayson held the dog's tail grass in his mouth, looked at Celeste sideways, and chuckled: "You are not Franklin, so you'd better not mess with me."

Celeste eyes shone with confidence: "If I want to offend you, it doesn't have to be Franklin."

Okay, we did it again!

Where is the genius you promised?

What about the so-called aloofness?

Two guys who are obviously arrogant at heart, but just talk to each other, how come they become so full of blood, like a lady in the vegetable market...

"Ouch, here comes the wine!"

Nicholas Pickering shouted, quickly stood up and took the wine brought by the waiter, poured a glass for each of Kayson and Celeste himself, and smiled with great enthusiasm: "Come on, you two, have a drink first."

Celeste smiled lightly and took a sip, very elegantly.

Kayson glared at Nicholas Pickering with the wine glass in hand and asked, "Why did you pour her wine first?"

Damn it, how can we fight for a while?

Nicholas Pickering blurted out, "Ladies first!"

"Hey, that's a pretty good saying!"

Kayson praised it and drank the wine in one gulp with a smile.

Nicholas Pickering wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought: Be more careful in the future and don't say such "not vulgar" words again.

After the food and wine were served, the depressing atmosphere became slightly less tense and more comfortable.

While eating and chatting, Nicholas Pickering asked Kayson: "As far as I know, southern Sichuan seems to be quite far away. How come you came to this small Ning County?"

Hearing this, Celeste paused with his chopsticks, and his expression under the veil seemed to change slightly, but neither Nicholas Pickering nor Kayson noticed it, nor did they want to pay attention.

Kayson replied: "Southern Sichuan is not fun, so I ran out to walk around and see the scenery everywhere."

Nicholas Pickering didn't believe this reason and said, "Besides me, there really isn't anything to see in Ning County."

Kayson glanced at him: "I didn't expect you to be quite shameless."

Nicholas Pickering was not to be outdone: "Compared with each other, I still have some shortcomings and need to continue to work hard."

With a "Puch" sound, Celeste couldn't bear it anymore and squirted a big mouthful of rice, splashing it all over Nicholas Pickering face.

Nicholas Pickering wiped the rice off his face depressedly, looked at Celeste resentfully, and said, "I'm very curious, how did you avoid soiling your veil when the rice spray came so suddenly and unprepared!"

Yes, the moment she sprayed her rice, Celeste lifted her veil at lightning speed, and then covered it up with lightning speed. Her movements were so skillful that one had to wonder if she repeated this often. The action of spraying rice.

Celeste was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the topic to cover up the embarrassment: "I know why Mr. Yu came to Ning County!"

Sure enough, Nicholas Pickering was attracted and asked: "Why do you keep calling him Young Master Yu? Looking at the clothes he is wearing, he looks as poor as I do. He doesn't look like a young master from any family at all!"

After saying that, Nicholas Pickering quickly raised his hand, fearing that Celeste would slap him in the face again.

Celeste really almost squirted again - can we have a good chat and grasp the key points? The title "Master" is not important at all, right? The discussion now is why Kayson came here!

Nicholas Pickering was worried that Celeste would beat someone up, so he quickly asked: "By the way, did you just say you knew why Brother Yu came here?"

Celeste nodded, but did not speak. He just stared at Kayson quietly, with a somewhat threatening tone.

It's a pity that Kayson is too casual and doesn't take it seriously at all, just minding his own business and drinking wine leisurely.

For some reason, Celeste, who was originally aloof, couldn't help it anymore and took the initiative to speak: "Kayson, do you really want me to say it?"

Kayson shrugged and said, "You can just say whatever you want, Brother Fang didn't block your mouth with his tongue!"

After saying this, Nicholas Pickering was ready to move. He really wanted to try the taste of Celeste. It would definitely be ecstasy.

At the same time, Nicholas Pickering was also a little confused. He didn't know what kind of hatred Kayson and Celeste had. Why did they always look so bitter and resentful and not ridiculed and uncomfortable?

Moreover, why did Celeste reject Kayson so much? It always gave people the feeling that he was on guard and even wanted to drive Kayson from Ning County.

Judging from today's situation, these two people never knew each other before, so where did this contradiction and rejection between them come from?

It seems that there is something that Nicholas Pickering, the middleman, doesn't know!

Celeste was well-educated and did not get angry at Kayson's words, but his tone became colder unconsciously: "Kayson, if I guessed correctly, you should be here for that thing!"

Kayson didn't even raise his head: "What are you talking about? I don't quite understand."

Celeste said: "Since you have come, why deny it?"

Kayson finally put down his wine glass, raised his eyes and looked directly at Celeste, and said, "So what if I'm here for it?"

There was a glint in Celeste eyes: "I think you can go back to Shunan, it doesn't belong to you."

Kayson smiled and asked, "Then who does it belong to? Franklin?"

Celeste shook his head and said: "Franklin doesn't need it, so he won't come."

Kayson sneered and said angrily: "Oh, you know Franklin so well! If I hadn't known that Brother Fang next to you was your fiancé, I almost thought you had some ulterior relationship with Franklin!"

"..."

Nicholas Pickering was extremely depressed and felt that he had been cheated on for no reason.

Although he didn't know this so-called Franklin, he could tell that he must be a powerful figure. Otherwise, how could these two proud guys in front of him speak with such respect?

Celeste glared at Kayson and said coldly: "You are the same as Franklin? What a joke! In my opinion, you are not even qualified to carry Franklin's shoes."

Kayson raised his eyebrows and said: "Don't provoke me so much. I don't plan to compete with Franklin yet. But don't worry, one day, I will go to Yanyuan to talk to him. By then , I will definitely mention Celeste in front of Franklin , but I don’t know if he is willing to spend so much energy to remember you, a woman who doesn’t even dare to show her appearance..."

"you!"

Celeste stood up suddenly and pointed at Kayson.

Suddenly, a strong aura overflowed from her body, and a strong wind roared, making her clothes rustle and the dishes on the table rattled.

The arrogant girl is finally going crazy!
