Legends of Runeterra

After checking the panel, Samira's bond value is about to reach the standard line for generating talent, and the rest will be left to time.

"System, call up the Sivir panel!"

"Ding, the panel has been called up!"

-----------------

【Name】Sivir

[Gender] Female

[Race] Human (?)

[Rank] Brave

【Talent】Ascension Bloodline (Red)

[Bond] 27%

[Comment on the host] Damn it, my first experience ended in such a mess, and the other party is Samira's lover, what should I do? Damn it, get that thing out of my mind!

-----------------

"Is it just red level? Yes, I just got 'Charikar', so I guess there is still potential that has not been fully released yet!"

Li En looked at the bond value which suddenly jumped to 27%, and felt happy but also a little headache.

"You must not drink alcohol recklessly. Drinking will cause trouble! From today on, you must stop drinking!"

"Ding! Unless it's like last night!"

"Shut up, system!"

After Li En returned to the Fulgrim Tavern, he received an invitation letter personally delivered by Caitlin.

"Li En, my mother asked me to tell you that Meier Midalda will also be present. It's about the upper echelons and Hefeng Industry!"

"Okay, I understand. Thank Lady Cassandra for me."

Li En smiled slightly and gave Caitlin a reassuring look.

"It seems that they have sensed something from the recent actions, and they want to test the waters."

...

A week later, at the Gilaman Manor, a gorgeous carriage slowly drove into the gate.

"Haha, welcome Li En!"

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wayne!"

After hugging Caitlin's father, the two of them went to the reception room accompanied by him.

The glass in the distance suddenly flashed, and then a figure quickly left.

...

Walking into the hall, Lady Cassandra was sitting with Mel not far away, the two were chatting and laughing about something.

Seeing Li En and the others coming, Lady Cassandra stood up to greet them, followed closely by Mel.

"Good afternoon, Lady Cassandra, Ms. Mel!"

"Long time no see, Mr. Li En!"

"Okay, Li En, you're welcome, come and sit down!"

Lady Cassandra kindly invited Li En to sit down. Seeing this scene, Mel's eyes moved slightly.

The four of them sat down, exchanged greetings, and tasted some snacks. Finally, Mel, who was in charge of the task, spoke slowly.

"Mr. Li En, I heard that you recently founded a company in Zaun?"

"It's not really a company, it's just a small business that's barely functioning!"

"Haha, Mr. Li En is too modest. Hefeng Industries is quite famous in Zaun recently!"

"Haha, I'm currently repairing the alchemy pipeline, so there's nothing I can do if it makes a bit of noise!"

Facing Li En's avoidance, Mel was silent for a moment.

To be honest, Mel is feeling very uncomfortable right now. He came to the meeting as a representative of the upper nobles of Piltover to warn Li En about his recent frequent actions in Zaun.

It seems that he is in a very favorable position and can easily control the opponent.

In fact, no one wants to face the man with the Noxian Empire behind him.

The main reason why he was pushed out was the suggestion from the main family of the Empire, and secondly there was the implicit pressure from other families in Piltover.

The meeting place was set at Gilaman's house, and it was only after Mel's repeated requests that Lady Cassandra allowed it.

As for the purpose, the fact that Li En was close to the eldest daughter of the Jiraman family had long been noticed by the nobles.

Li En is a real Noxian noble. If the negotiations fail today, the situation will not be too awkward for Caitlyn's sake.

However, the nobles of Piltover are decent people after all. As long as Li En's request is not too excessive, everyone can tolerate it.

Mel took a deep breath and chose to confront the issue directly.

"Mr. Li En, today I am just telling you as a representative that the recent actions of Hefeng Industries in Zaun have made the people of Piltover somewhat uneasy! What exactly do you plan to do? Or which side do you plan to stand on in the Twin Cities?"

Faced with Mel's long string of words, Li En put away his smile and looked at him calmly.

"I am on the side of the Empire."

"what do you mean..."

"Don't be impatient. Take a look at this document first! If you agree, Hefeng Industry will not expand any further."

Mel took the paper handed over by Li En and looked at it carefully.

As he read the content bit by bit, Mel's face became more and more relaxed.

After a while, she put down the paper.

"Phew! Mr. Li En, as their representative, I can agree to most of the contents in the document. I only need to report items 3, 4, and 6 to the higher-ups."

"Then I'm waiting for your good news!"

"That's great! I mean, thank you!"

After completing the task, Mel did not stay any longer. After chatting for a while, he said goodbye.

Watching Mel's departing back, Li En knew that the so-called report was just a formality and they would eventually agree. After all, what he proposed were not demanding requirements.

And in their eyes, as a Noxian, I will have to leave the Twin Cities sooner or later.

By then, Hefeng Industry will fall into their hands.

...

"Thank you for your advance notice, Lady Cassandra!"

"Haha, Li En, you're too polite. Jiraman is just one of the many families in Piltover. This is all I can do."

"I understand. Thank you both for your help."

Lady Cassandra smiled and nodded, then glanced at Mr. Wayne.

"Oh, by the way, I'm going to go check on the plants I've been cultivating recently. Li En, I'm sorry to bother you for a moment."

Wait until Mr. Wayne goes out and close the door.

With Li En having an inexplicable premonition, Lady Cassandra spoke slowly.

"Leen, what do you think of Caitlin?"

"Caitlin? She's great, beautiful, kind, brave and strong!"

"So would you like to..."

"Wait, Lady Cassandra, I understand what you mean, but please allow me to refuse."

Li En decisively refused, causing Lady Cassandra's face to change slightly. She hurriedly asked, "Why? I clearly saw you in the garden that day..."

Cassandra didn't say any more, but it was enough for Li En to understand what she meant.

Li En said quickly before he had time to complain about how many people saw it that day.

"It's hard for me to explain the specific reason right now, but what you saw that day was due to a misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstand?"

"Yes, after that day, I never did anything disrespectful!"

Facing Lady Cassandra's scrutiny, Li En quickly added.

"I do like Caitlyn, but she doesn't know I'm from Noxus, and I'm not sure if she has the same feelings for me. So please wait for a while. Once I confirm her feelings, I will come to talk about this matter in person! What do you think?"

Facing Li En's sincere gaze, Lady Cassandra smiled.
