Lorenzo wasn't late... at least that's how he thought.
When he pushed open the door, he saw that the round table was already full of people. Everyone was looking at him in unison, with different looks in their eyes, which made him feel uncomfortable, as if Lorenzo was some kind of weird exhibit that was pushed behind the scenes, waiting for everyone to bid.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward and no one spoke. Lorenzo's expression did not change at all under such gaze. Instead, he glared back hard.
Someone pushed him from behind, allowing Lorenzo to step fully into the meeting hall.
Selyu was different from Lorenzo. She felt a little embarrassed now. Selyu had underestimated the influence of Jiuxia's envoy. The surrounding areas of the central railway station were in congestion. Although she was not late, she still felt a little embarrassed as the last one to arrive.
"People from Jiuxia? Yoyoyo, hello, hello."
Lorenzo followed suit and walked quickly, muttering something to himself as he waved his hand to greet these strangers.
Arthur at the end of the round table had a gloomy expression, he had seen Lorenzo's bad words before, but he didn't expect that he could still have a seizure in this situation.
"The atmosphere is really awkward. I don't know if these foreigners can understand what I'm saying..." Lorenzo passed by and saw Rhodes and Cai Gong standing by. He instinctively guessed, "You are the translators, right? Don't translate this sentence!"
Lord Cai showed his signature smile, as if this was the only response he could give to the outside world. Rod ignored Lorenzo completely. The current serious situation put him under tremendous pressure, but he could still cope with it. However, Lorenzo's arrival and these insane remarks made him lose his mind for a moment and he didn't know what to do.
"Ah... The atmosphere here is so serious, like they are discussing where to hold a memorial service."
Lorenzo muttered again. Selyu was too lazy to pay attention to this guy's attack and found an empty seat to sit down. Lorenzo walked past her and sat next to Shao Liangye.
"Hello, hello."
As he sat down, Lorenzo did not forget to say hello.
Shao Liangye turned his head slightly and glanced at Lorenzo. His expression was cold, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He probably didn't expect that the guy who could crawl back from the end of the world would look like this. Shao Liangye also understood Arthur's previous answer.
"Hello."
Out of etiquette, Shao Liangye answered in a clear and loud voice.
Lorenzo was stunned after listening to this standard Western language.
The scene became increasingly awkward and silent. Before, it was as solemn as a meeting room for the final battle, but now it was very much like the memorial service that Lorenzo had mentioned, and the main target of the memorial service was still Lorenzo himself.
Looking around, everyone sitting next to Arthur was looking at Lorenzo strangely. Looking at Jiuxia's seat, Zuo Zhen was still smiling friendly, Zuo Tang was as cold as Shao Liangye, and Shao Liangxi puffed up his cheeks as if he was trying to hold back a laugh.
"Is this Mr. Holmes?" Zuo Zhen glanced at the embarrassed Lorenzo, then looked at Arthur, "Seeing is believing."
Arthur smiled helplessly, "Yes, he is a troublesome guy."
"It's okay. I think it's pretty good."
Zuo Zhen was staring at Lorenzo. Lorenzo could clearly feel his gaze moving along Lorenzo's skin and clothes, from top to bottom, over and over again... This felt terrible. What was worse was that the one examining Lorenzo was the old man Zuo Zhen.
