Restarting the myth
Chapter 301: I feel like I won
Night. ඏ♦ ♦♦
Mist.
A high-end restaurant.
The black car slowly stopped.
Wayne, dressed in a black suit, walked into the restaurant in a proper manner, followed by Mona in formal attire.
Her appearance was very similar to Megan, a lady in a suit and trousers, with an upright posture and capable manners. Except for the fact that her hair was not short and she had a pair of glasses, there was almost no difference.
It was obvious that Wayne was cosplaying Auston. He did not need to wear makeup when he played the big trash can, and he was restrained...
He just needed to work hard and magnify his shortcomings.
At the window on the third floor, Wayne saw his poor relative, Banser Landau, and his family.
The head of the family, Banser Landau, his wife Jennifer, the eldest son Olin, the second son Naren, the third son, the fourth son, the fifth daughter...
In short, the family was prosperous, and there was a group of young people of Wayne's generation below, about thirty or forty people, and the main point was that one person was powerful.
In terms of generation, Banser is Auston's uncle. Although they are distant relatives, they are actually very close in blood. They just live far away and have not been together for many years.
Wayne and Banser's grandchildren were quite unhappy to see him coming with a step that did not recognize any relatives.
Auston is the head of the Landau family. Although he is a junior, Banser still has to look up to Auston based on his status as the head of the family. What is the heir of Wayne? He is just a grandson. How can he be so mean!
Banser felt that he was despised and insulted, but he did not express it. He still smiled and took the initiative to greet him: "You must be Wayne, the young man looks like Auston. I thought your illegitimate child was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."
Banser is an old man in his 40s, but his heart is not old. His appearance remains middle-aged. He looks only about ten years older than Auston.
These words were sarcastic and full of thorns. Wayne felt normal after listening to them. He said to his eldest son Olin who was looking aggressive next to him: "Your Excellency has a good temperament and is quite like the Landau family. I think you are the head of the family, Grandpa Banser."
"..."xn
Banser's smile was stiff. He was good at self-cultivation and did not frown on the spot.
Olin's eyes widened directly. He noticed his father's anger and hurriedly explained: "I am not. I am your uncle Olin Landau. This is my father Banser Landau, the real head of the family."
"No way, this old man looks ordinary and has no momentum and ambition like you. You are the head of the family."
"I am not!"
"Then it will definitely be in the future. Compared with you, your brothers and sisters are simply not worth mentioning."
"..."xn
The crowd was in turmoil, and several people rolled up their sleeves to rush up to show Wayne a little color.
Wayne's eyes lit up and raised his hand to snap his fingers.
Mona pushed her glasses and took two steps forward to stand beside Wayne.
"Enough, what's the point of arguing with a junior in public? You have lost the face of the Landau family." Banser snorted coldly and scolded everyone to sit back in their seats.
"Wayne, I came to Lundan because of the Queen's summons. Why didn't Auston come? Didn't he understand the Queen's order?"
"Old man, is it your first day in Lundan? Don't you know the relationship between my father and the Queen?"
Wayne sneered and saw the crowd watching the excitement around him. They were either rich or noble and dressed gorgeously. He pointed at them and said, "Go and ask around. Everyone knows that my father is the Queen's first love. What is their relationship? The whole of Lundan knows it clearly."
"..." xn
I don't know, please be more specific! xn
The crowd of onlookers were all helpers invited by Banser. They were guest-starring passers-by tonight. In fact, they were supporting Banser. They were all curious when they heard it.
They didn't have the guts to gossip about the Queen, but they had the courage to listen to her gossip as passersby.
Wayne knew very well that there must be the Queen's spies among these people, and there might be spies from other Tulip families, or even princesses and princes.
It was not easy for nobles to maintain the dignity of the upper class, and it was reasonable to sell one piece of information to three families.
Knowing this relationship, Wayne simply said loudly: "I'm not afraid to tell you that the prince died early. Over the years, my father Austin was often summoned by the Queen late at night and talked with her about national affairs all night. He was the Queen's most trusted minister."
"Be sensible and don't talk about the Queen in front of me. My father has seen the Queen in person more than you have seen the Queen in photos!"
"Do you think the Queen called you all here to enjoy yourself? It's so funny, it's impossible. If it weren't for the fear that other Tulip families would not accept it, you would never be able to return to Lundan in this life."
Arrogant and domineering, he has no respect for the monarch. This kid won't last long! xn
Everyone made a surprising unanimous evaluation in their hearts, and they all expressed their condolences for Wayne's future.
But then I thought about how smart Auston was. Wayne had his blood in his veins, so he shouldn't be like this, unless...
What Wayne said was true!
For a moment, the whole restaurant was unusually quiet. The Banser family was stunned, and the onlookers stood still with their knives and forks.
You could hear a pin drop.
"Ahem, I've said too much. I shouldn't say what I just said."
Wayne pulled out a chair, sat down with a big horse and a golden knife, and raised his eyebrows and said, "But it doesn't matter. The sky of Lundan is always the sky of the queen. Even if I say it, no one dares to spread it."
After a flurry of punches, Banser couldn't do it anymore. He took the handkerchief handed to him by his wife, wiped the sweat from his forehead hastily, and sat opposite Wayne with a civilized stick.
Looking at the arrangement of the seats, Wayne was completely surrounded by the Banser family. He should have been in danger, surrounded by wolves. However, due to the unclear relationship between Aston and the Queen, Wayne took the center position, and the Banser family became a foil.
Banser questioned Wayne's words, and did not believe that the pure Queen and Aston were still connected. After all...
He knew that Prince Douglas was suspected to be alive.
"Old man, no, Banser, today I came on behalf of the goodwill of the Landau family. Aston asked me to take good care of you. He said that poor relatives from other places came to our family to beg for food. I didn't believe it at the time, but now..."
Wayne glanced at everyone and raised his chin slightly: "It's really a bit shabby. In terms of clothing and appearance, you have made the word aristocracy become civilian."
"..."xn
No one in the Banser family said anything. Many of them, especially the third generation of the family, did make a lot of jokes when they first arrived in the big city of Lundan.
I dressed up tonight and spent a lot of money. I thought I was gorgeous enough, but I suddenly lost my confidence when Wayne said that.
Did I really bring shame to the nobles?
Banser felt lonely. Compared with his own family, Auston did have a powerful son: "Wayne, you are a little too much. I am yours anyway..."
"We are all nobles. There is no need to play the emotional card. Talking about emotions costs money. I can afford it, but can you?"
Wayne interrupted directly and said to the waiter standing aside: "Let's go, tonight's consumption is on me. I don't want the best, I just want the most expensive."
The manager nodded repeatedly. Although Wayne was arrogant and particularly annoying, this is Landan, and money is the boss.
If he were the heir of the Landau family and had a father who married the queen with a billion, he would definitely be more arrogant than Wayne.
The offensive and defensive situation reversed, and Wayne treated Banser's family to a banquet.
It doesn't matter, the money is worth it. Seeing the struggle of the Banser family wanting to eat but caring about their face, Wayne smiled but said nothing.
"Hehehehe————"
Mona stood behind Wayne the whole time, acting as a bodyguard, secretary, lover, and waiter. Whenever she saw Wayne's domineering attitude, a trace of rightness flashed in her eyes.
Faith makes people firm, religion makes people ignorant!
Banser tasted the authentic French food, which tasted like chewing wax. Some of the words he had prepared were useless at this time.
He said that he had the support of the queen, so Wayne said that Auston slept with the queen. He didn't dare to say what Wayne dared to say, so what was there to talk about.
Fortunately, the problem was not big. The whole place was his people. Wayne took the risk alone and only brought a secretary...
Secretary?
Speaking of the secretary, Banser suddenly thought that according to the intelligence sponsored by the royal spies, the secretary around Auston was very good at fighting. What about the secretary around Wayne, would he also be very good at fighting?
The problem is still not big. With so many people watching, does Wayne really dare to hit him?
It would be best if he hit him. He can make a lot of money by lying down.
Thinking about it, Banser felt sad. They all have the surname Landau. Austin and Wayne only need to sell their conscience to make money, but he has to sell his face.
As a noble, he is really a failure.
"Mr. Banser, are you Mr. Banser?"
A strange voice inserted into Banser's ears. He raised his head in confusion, looked at the uninvited man, and stood up subconsciously: "I am Banser Landau. Forgive me for not being active in Lundan for many years. Who are you?"
"It's you, have you forgotten? I am John, the priest of the Moonlight Church. We drank together at that banquet." The man named John came forward enthusiastically and shook Banser's hand tightly, looking like an old friend meeting.
Is there?
Banser was not very clear, but it did not affect his sudden realization. Facing the warm embrace of his old friend, he soon chatted with him about the banquet that year.
Banser recalled the past and soon figured out the reason for John's arrival. If it was right, it was the force arranged by the Queen to put pressure on Austin.
Recently, the Moonlight Church has moved into London in large numbers and is in the honeymoon period with the royal family. If the Queen invites, the Moonlight Church will not mind sending a priest to help.
It's reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it.
"Hahaha————"
Banser laughed loudly, and the figure of his old friend John became clear in an instant.
That's right, we drank together in the past!
While chatting, Banser looked at Wayne with his peripheral vision. Seeing that he lowered his head to eat and didn't speak, his smile became stronger.
Gradually, the laughter of the Banser family increased.
"Noisy and no rules at all, where is your table manners, have you lost them in the countryside?" Wayne put down his knife and fork dissatisfiedly, took the napkin handed by Mona, and wiped the corners of his mouth lightly with great restraint.
"I'm sorry, John and I haven't seen each other for many years. I was so excited that I disturbed your meal."
The sky cleared up, the rain stopped, and Banser felt that he was fine again, and he was more humble in his words.
Humility often means self-confidence. The more outstanding people are, the more they know how to respect others. On the contrary, easily belittling others is actually a manifestation of inferiority complex seeking superiority.
Comparing the two, Banser felt that he had won.
"Banser, I'm sorry to disturb your dinner with friends. This is a high-end restaurant. I was rude just now." John said to smooth things over.
"It doesn't matter. We are all family. Let me introduce them. These are my family members..."
Banser introduced them one by one, and finally it was Wayne's turn: "He is Wayne Landau, a noble of Lundan, and one of my juniors."
"Wayne Landau, I seem to have heard of this name somewhere..."
John frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Stop talking about this, Banser, I'm not here to eat. We'll contact you another day."
"Come to the restaurant and don't want to eat?"
"Well, the French food in this restaurant is very pure. They are all the best chefs in London. The high priest of our church likes to dine here. Today we invited a distinguished guest. I want to go to the private room to check." John explained road.
Banser's eyes lit up. The Queen was very clever. In order to suppress the Tulip family, even the high priest of the Moonlight Church moved here.
Is it possible that the high priest's guest is him?
Thinking of this, Banser straightened up a lot.
At this moment, three women entered the hall outside the door.
The two identical-looking twins had excellent looks, and any one of them would be a beautiful woman. Together with the bonus of the twins, they instantly became the focus of the audience.
Unfortunately, the focus was only for a moment before everyone's attention was attracted to the woman walking in front.
The woman is wearing a long white dress, her figure is graceful, delicate and pure. As she moves, the hem of the skirt flutters gently, as if the breeze is carrying a whisper, which unknowingly enters the heart.
Her long golden hair was tied up, and a black veil covered half of her beautiful face. Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes were as clear as the traces of moonlight falling on the world. Only half of her face was exposed and she was already beautiful.
"Gudu!"xn
No one doubted her appearance, and the mystery of the veil made her more noble and beautiful.
"High Priest."
John came to Philomena and whispered: "I met an old friend and chatted with him for a while, but I didn't have time to check the private room."
Philomena shook her head slightly and glanced at the Banser family. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she moved towards them.
This change in expression and the undisguised joy in his brows made the whole hall a little brighter.
Banser was ecstatic, secretly thinking that the queen treated him well and supported this big scene today, so he would be more confident against Auston in the future.
This is a stable rhythm!
"Ms. High Priest, Banser Lan..."
Banser's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and he watched in shock as the white-clothed figure passed by him, arrived at Wayne's side without looking back, and then...
Sit down.
Yes, sitting on Wayne's lap.
"It's so rare that you are not late today. I used to ask you to come out for dinner with various excuses." Philomena complained again and again, not caring at all about her identity as a high priest and the increasingly horrifying looks of the people around her.
The legendary mage is somewhat crazy.
For example, Philomena has long wanted to make her relationship with Wayne clear, but Wayne has always disagreed.
"Don't make trouble, you are the high priest, so many people are watching!" Wayne patted his butt, asking Philomena to restrain herself.
Philomena glanced at the others with a raised eyebrow, then quickly looked away: "Where is there, why didn't I see it?"
After saying that, he glanced at Mona in displeasure and said, "Asshole, your secretary is getting more and more beautiful!"
This sour smell can be tasted even from a distance. The little woman's behavior is not as majestic as that of a high priest. She is clearly someone who has fallen in love...
Speaking of which, she is already a high priest, so she must be quite young, right? xn
Everyone thought this way, and then looked at Philomena's beautiful face hidden by the veil, and instantly firmed their stance.
Sister, I can do it! xn
"Go wait for me in the house. I have guests here. I'll come find you after I'm done with them." Wayne glanced at Philomena, who snorted coldly and refused to get up alone.
"..."xn
Banser:
Is this the Queen's arrangement? I'm afraid it's not... right?
Banser may not be as shrewd as Auston, but his IQ is definitely online. If he thinks about his 'old friend' John at this time, how can he still not know who arranged it?
Why?
Why could Wayne give orders to the high priest of the Moonlight Church? Why did the high priest make so many sacrifices? Is it the ability of the Landau family?
Banser hopes that it is the ability, if not, there is no point in his coming to London.
The Queen found the wrong way to threaten Alston. This kind of high-end game was not something he, a down-and-out noble, could participate in.
"I really can't do anything about you, but forget it, it's not an important guest anyway."
Wayne stood up with Philomena in his arms and said apologetically: "Banser, the high priest and I have important matters to discuss. That's it for today. I'll invite you and your family to dinner another day. Just leave the bill at the front desk. I'll pay for it later."
"Don't worry, I'll do it another day, it's not worth the money!"
After saying that, regardless of Banser's stiff face, he walked into the box with his hands on his slim waist.
Mona followed closely and entered the private room with the twins.
Outside the house is the gatekeeper John, a dignified priest of the Moonlight Church. Because of his gender, he is not even qualified to enter the house and sit down to eat.
If he didn't enter the house, it would be interesting to think about what was being eaten in the house and who was being eaten.
The onlookers, mostly men, showed their subjective initiative. They were all in a sad mood, muttering to themselves, looking sad as if they were visiting Wayne's grave.
Sensing the dissatisfied look in their female companion's eyes, they...
Not changed!
Still devastated, I just wish I couldn't take Wayne's place.
What should I change? Do I have the intention to change it now? xn
After a while, the onlookers remembered their mission, looked away with envy and hatred, and sympathized with the Banser family.
Give up, big cities are too cruel. If you want to gain a foothold here, you must have at least a high priest in your arms.
While it is still not too late, pack up your bags and go back to the countryside to farm. At least in the cotton plantation, you are the winners in life.
They did not bother to say hello to the loser family, and ended the dinner and left. Tonight was not in vain. They gained an important piece of information that could be sold at a high price.
No matter why Wayne touched the buttocks of the Moonlight Church High Priest and made the High Priest act as if he was in love in public, whether it was money or personal charm, it was an indisputable fact that the High Priest was held in his arms.
Facing the Queen's centralization, the Landau family revealed a trump card. The heir Wayne had an affair with the High Priest of the Moonlight Church.
Considering that Auston also had an affair with the High Priest of the Natural Church and adopted a daughter, the three major beliefs of the Life Alliance have already won two in Lundan.
Of course, it can also be said that the two churches of Nature and Moonlight have pried the Queen's wall and successfully entered the Tulip Family.
But these are not the main points.
The three major beliefs of the Life Alliance, the Landau family has a close relationship with the Natural Church and the Moonlight Church. What about the last one, the Sun Church? Do the father and son often go there for fitness and wrestling?
As expected of Austin, a famous loyal minister of the Tulip Family, he eats the Queen's food, sleeps with the Queen's food, and has become so familiar with the Life Alliance in the time it takes to pull up his pants.
The hall was silent, and no one in the Banser family spoke.
The younger generation had no intention of tasting the pure French food, and the head of the family, Banser, was even more confused and tired, and the whole person looked much older.
Jennifer supported her husband, with a sad look between her eyebrows. She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say, and her eyes asked if she wanted to leave.
"Let's go, it's almost time to eat."
Banser did not answer directly. When he passed by the manager, he insisted on paying the bill himself. He glanced at the private room and paid the bill for Wayne's room by the way.
It hurts, but this is his last stubbornness and the tuition he paid tonight.
It's worth it!
Austin opened his eyes and showed him what a noble family with deep roots is. Even without relying on the queen, the Landau family can gain a foothold in Lundan.
"Auston, you are too arrogant. I will pass these words to the queen and add some of my personal opinions. Since you don't need the queen, the queen doesn't need you either."
Banser looked sinister. Although his back was not as straight as before, he was still unwilling. From the perspective of the Tulip Family, the Landau family headed by Austin had crossed the line.
Is that the butt of the high priest of the Moonlight Church? That is a slide that cannot be touched!
The stronger Austin is, the more the queen needs him. He, Banser, represents the true loyalty of the Landau family.
This loyalty is enough for the queen to make a choice!
"Auston, you shouldn't have revealed this trump card. You left the queen with no choice."
