C491 Unexpected Invitation



C491 Unexpected Invitation

Forcing the palace?    

    

The crowd looked at each other in dismay. They were all confused.    

    

"That's right. Gather all the persuasive Chinese and march on the streets. We demand that traditional Chinese medicine be legalized, we need drugs that can cure diseases and save lives. " Yin Yuan said smoothly.    

    

It was obvious that this move had been brewing in her heart for a long time.    

    

"Of course, if we can persuade an influential figure to speak up for us. "This step will save us time and effort. After all, forcing a palace is just signing down. Breaking the seal on the contract will only make the situation worse in Europe."    

    

"A big shot?" Hsiao Hee could not help but turn his gaze towards Chen Fangfang and Lu Guotao.    

    

Because if there was anyone here who had the qualifications or experience to meet a certain grand character, it would only be the two of them.    

    

The two of them shook their heads at the same time and said, "It's useless. We've both tried to pay you a visit." But those nobles are always trying to keep the newspapers warm, so they definitely won't speak up for us. "    

    

"Then we can only force the palace." Yin Yuan sighed and said helplessly.    

    

Just as everyone was feeling extremely helpless, there was a very regular knocking sound on the door.    

    

"There are still guests?"    

    

This surprised Hsiao Hee and he couldn't help but look at Yin Yuan.    

    

Yin Yuan understood and stood up with a smile. Actually, she didn't know who it was that came to visit.    

    

But, won't we know if we open the door?    

    

The door of the suite opened. An old man with the appearance of an old noble butler stood outside, two well-dressed servants followed behind him.    

    

The old man's silver hair was neatly combed. It was the same aura as his entire person. Although he was not smiling, he seemed very reliable.    

    

He placed a hand on his chest, bowed towards Yin Yuan, and spoke in fluent English, "Respected Miss Yin, I am here on behalf of my master to invite you to his dinner."    

    

"Master?" Yin Yuan raised her eyebrows.    

    

"Yes, my master is Mr. Humbert." The old man said humbly.    

    

Noticing the unusual situation, Hsiao Hee, who had been sitting there, stood up and looked at the old man who was standing at the door.    

    

The aura coming from his body was familiar to Hsiao Hee, he didn't know where he had seen it before.    

    

Hsiao Hee looked at the old man and had already attracted the attention of the two servants behind the silver-haired old man.    

    

They each took a step forward, closing the distance between them and the old man. One on the left and one on the right, they guarded him from both sides.    

    

These two handsome bodyguards were also first-rate experts, they could sense an immeasurable danger from Hsiao Hee.    

    

However, they were all strictly trained and disciplined. They would not act rashly without a master or in grave danger.    

    

That would only bring trouble to the people they were supposed to protect.    

    

Yin Yuan looked at the elder in front of her who gave off a pleasing feeling with just his movements and gestures and squinted her eyes as she asked, "You guys are following me?"    

    

"Nope." The old man shook his head and denied it.    

    

"In that case, how do you know where we are?" Yin Chong held back a smile, and asked.    

    

"Miss Yin, Mr. Humbert wants to know a person's whereabouts. Not to mention this small Rome, even in Europe, there will be people helping him find it." The old man said calmly.    

    

If such arrogant words were said by this kind-looking old man, it wouldn't make people feel that it was ridiculous or strange. Instead, it gave people a feeling that it was a matter of course.    

    

"Oh? That Mr. Humbert must be a very powerful person, right? " Yin Yuan asked with a smile.    

    

"Mr. Humbert is a gentle person who likes to make friends." The old man didn't answer Yin Yuan's question directly, but he didn't deny it and even flattered his master on the way.    

    

"We've only met once, so I'm not very familiar with him." Yin Yuan shook her head and said, "I don't know why he invited me to his dinner."    

    

"Friendship has nothing to do with the length of time." The old man said seriously, "Mr. Humbert has a deep memory of Miss Yin. It just so happened that there's an event tonight. He really hopes that Miss Yin can attend. "    

    

Then, the elder looked away from Yin Yuan, towards Hsiao Hee, who stood up in the living room, and said.    

    

"Of course, if Mr. Godly Doctor is free, Mr. Humbert would also warmly welcome you. He likes to be friends with good young people, and he will be honored by that. "    

    

Yin Yuan translated what the old man said to Hsiao Hee.    

    

Hsiao Hee's eyes narrowed slightly, then quickly returned to normal.    

    

Who exactly is this Humbert?    

    

Why are you so concerned about their affairs?    

    

If he wasn't mistaken, he must have sent someone to investigate this group of people.    

    

Otherwise, how could he have known where he was living so clearly?    

    

"Why are we attending Mr. Humbert's dinner?" Hsiao Hee smiled and asked, "Is there any reason why we must go?"    

    

Yin Yuan was about to try translating Hsiao Hee's words into English when she saw the elder raise his hand with a smile.    

    

The moment he opened his mouth, he actually spoke fluent Chinese, and even had an extremely Beijing accent.    

    

"I think you need a friend like Mr. Humbert now, don't you?"    

    

No one had expected that this old man was proficient in so many languages.    

    

So why did the old man choose to talk in English in the first place?    

    

Everyone was puzzled, but they couldn't find any way to deal with this insignificant problem.    

    

The old man looked at Hsiao Hee with respect as he spoke, without a smile, nor a sneer, "Of course, this is my personal suggestion. It was not Mr. Humbert's exact words. If there is any offense, please forgive me. "    

    

Hsiao Hee and Yin Yuan looked at each other and immediately understood what the other was thinking.    

    

Yin Chong nodded her head, smiled and said, "Since Mr. Humbert is inviting us with such hospitality, we cannot refuse his kind intentions. Young Master Hsiao and I are honored to be able to attend Mr. Humbert's banquet. "    

    

"This is also Mr. Humbert's honor." The old man replied modestly, "If you don't mind, our car has been waiting downstairs for a long time."    

    

"Then I'll be troubling you." Yin Yuan said with a smile.    

    

She gestured at the old man to invite her in. The old man bowed and gave her a gesture of invitation in return.    

    

Hsiao Hee's gaze swept across everyone, "Please be careful before we come back."    

    

"No problem." Lu Guotao seemed to notice something amiss as he solemnly nodded his head.    

    

Under countless puzzled and envious gazes, Hsiao Hee and Yin Yuan got into the priceless Rolls Royce.    

    

Hsiao Hee could feel the comfort and safety of the car just by sitting on it.    

    

Even if they were hit by high intensity attacks, the people inside wouldn't have any safety problems.
