Fate ha...

Chapter 1278 The Beauty Trap

Surrounded by a crowd, Liu Bei arrived at Ai Lin's house.

Upon seeing the Han Dynasty-style decor of the banquet hall, Liu Bei smiled.

"I never expected to see this familiar scene in Rome, thousands of miles away. The Erin family is truly thoughtful!"

"Brother Liu, you're too kind. The furniture and layout of the Han Dynasty have a unique style and charm, which I also greatly admire!"

Seeing that Liu Bei seemed quite satisfied with his arrangements, Elingklow was also very pleased.

Then, Elinklo pointed to the main seat in the north of the hall: "Brother Liu, please take a seat!"

Liu Bei: "Ah, I am a guest, how can I sit there?"

“Brother Liu is of noble status and should naturally sit in the main seat!” Elinclo also advised.

"No!"

Liu Bei waved his hand in refusal, and said seriously, "It has nothing to do with status or position. A guest is a guest. Does Patriarch Ailin intend for me to act like a guest who would bully the host?"

Elingcrown quickly explained, "It was my oversight, please forgive me, Brother Liu. I just felt that it was really inappropriate for you to sit in the guest seat!"

“Father, I have a suggestion!” Ailin Kai stepped forward and said, “Why don’t you place your table at the same level as Brother Xuande’s in the main seat? This way, we can show our hospitality and avoid putting Brother Xuande in a difficult position!”

"Hmm, good, that's a good suggestion!"

Elingcrown's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Liu Bei: "Brother Liu, what do you think...?"

Liu Bei thought for a moment, then nodded: "That's fine too!"

"Haha~, Brother Liu, please!"

Upon seeing Liu Bei's agreement, Elinclo laughed heartily and they walked together toward the main seat.

After sitting down, Elingcrown turned to look at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei standing behind Liu Bei and said politely, "Please take a seat, you two brave warriors!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei merely turned their heads and glanced at Elinkloo indifferently, offering no response whatsoever.

"this……"

Seeing the two's attitude, Elinclo was slightly taken aback and looked at Liu Bei with an embarrassed expression.

"Patriarch Ailin, please don't be offended. These two are just like that; they have no other intentions!"

After offering an apologetic explanation, Liu Bei pointed to the two guest seats to his left: "Please sit down as well, and enjoy a feast to your heart's content today!"

"yes!!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei answered in unison, their voices booming like bells, causing everyone in the hall to turn their heads in surprise.

"The mighty warriors of the Han Dynasty are truly awe-inspiring!"

"Yes, if he were on the battlefield, he would definitely be a one-man army!"

Seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's towering height and robust physique, everyone in the hall couldn't help but admire them.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Liu Bei couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Even in the Han Dynasty, a land of numerous generals, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's martial prowess would be considered top-tier.

In this province of Egypt, and even throughout Rome, they could practically do whatever they wanted.

"Serve the food!!"

After everyone was seated, Elinkloo gave an order to the servant beside him.

Soon, a variety of exquisite and delicious dishes, along with fine wine from the Han Dynasty, were placed in front of everyone.

The Roman nobles present were also immediately intrigued, their Adam's apples bobbing involuntarily.

It should be noted that these dishes from the Han Dynasty are not only extremely delicious, but also very expensive, especially the wine, which is ridiculously expensive.

Even these nobles only tasted it occasionally to satisfy their cravings.

Today, however, the Ailin family is spending a fortune to host this banquet with fine wine and delicacies from the Han Dynasty, which shows how much they value Liu Bei.

Liu Bei also picked up his chopsticks with a smile, then picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, and began to chew slowly.

Elingcrown watched Liu Bei's expression nervously, afraid that he might not suit the other party's taste.

He only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Liu Bei smile throughout the entire process of chewing and swallowing.

Of course, for Liu Bei, even if the dish tasted terrible, he could still swallow it with a smile on his face, let alone if it tasted alright.

After putting down his chopsticks, Liu Bei immediately picked up his wine cup and looked at Ailin Keluo: "I am deeply honored to have received such a warm welcome from the head of the Ailin family today. I would like to offer you a toast to express my gratitude!"

Elingcrown quickly raised his glass: "Brother Liu, you're too kind. I'll drink first as a sign of respect!"

With that, Elingcrown picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, followed closely by Liu Bei.

"Brother Liu, we toast you!"

Seeing this, everyone in the hall raised their wine cups and began to toast Liu Bei.

"Everyone, please!!"

Liu Bei welcomed everyone without hesitation, responding to them with a smile.

This easygoing and humble attitude greatly pleased the nobles present.

After a few drinks, the atmosphere in the hall gradually warmed up.

While offering toasts, the nobles also kept asking Liu Bei questions about various aspects of the Han Dynasty's etiquette, culture, and entertainment.

Liu Bei, meanwhile, calmly and confidently explained things to everyone, displaying the demeanor of royalty in every gesture, completely captivating the audience.

Just as everyone was chatting happily, a group of dancers gracefully entered the center of the hall and began to perform for everyone.

The lead dancer, dressed in an exquisite red long-sleeved dance costume, not only danced gracefully, but her every smile and gesture was also extremely alluring, making her stand out from the crowd of dancers.

Liu Bei also put down his wine cup, staring intently at the dancer, and made a look of infatuation.
