The Richest Man in the DC World
Chapter 357: Wayne Manor (3)
"You mean we are very similar."
"Yes."
Barbara shook her fingers and said word by word, "The same rich family, no parents, and the same carefree. They all like to have one-night stands with supermodels and female stars."
Luke laughed loudly.
"The last sentence should be put away, I am not interested in female stars."
The girl snorted, "Lying!"
"Really, in my opinion, a hundred female stars are not as good as you."
"Lying again!"
Barbara turned her head away, "Don't seduce me, I won't be fooled."
Luke smiled without saying a word, reached out his hand to stop her slender waist, and strode towards the villa.
An old man with gray hair, a stiff body, and a British gentleman stood at the door. After seeing Luke, he strolled up.
"Hello, Mr. Xiao, this is Alfred Peniworth, and welcome to Wayne Manor."
"Hello, Mr. Penniworth."
Luke stretched out his right hand, shook his hand, turned and introduced, "This is the mysterious lady, my female companion."
Alfred smiled and nodded, Barbara wearing a white fox mask had a mysterious temptation, but Alfred had already passed the season of youthful restlessness.
"Master is in the hall, two, please."
Alfred personally led the two into the villa, which was a treatment that other guests did not have.
The guests in the living room are not too few. Most of them are familiar faces that can be seen on TV, such as businessmen, politicians, entrepreneurs, celebrities, etc. Surprisingly, among them, there is actually Harvey Dant, the new attorney general of Gotham City. .
This is a hot new political star in recent days. Although he lost in the mayoral election, he did not reduce his popularity. Instead, he became the new attorney general because of his tough style. The current stability of Gotham City is inseparable from him. .
These guests are all local to Gotham City. In contrast, Luke is like an outsider.
"Luke Xiao, the rumored Young Master Xiao, the leader of the underground city of Seaside, did not expect to see you here."
Harvey Dante’s words showed Ruoruowu hostility, as if questioning the prisoner, Luke laughed casually.
"I have only one identity now, and that is the guest of Wayne Manor."
"is it?"
Harvey Dante raised his head, scrutinizing his cold face, and then asked in a low voice.
"What are those 100 sets of kinetic armors? Why do the gangsters get it even if they offend the FBI."
"Sorry, I don't know how to answer your question. If you are interested, you can go to the Gotham City Police Station."
After speaking, join the crowd with Barbara.
As a promising new generation billionaire, Luke Shaw's appearance caused quite a stir. Similarly, Barbara, who wears a white fox mask and shows half of his delicate face, has also become the focus of men on the scene.
The two held hands, greeted various characters, and felt the so-called upper-class life.
Barbara was originally worried about people asking her for her identity. Gradually, as the banquet went on, she discovered that everyone was concerned about the relationship between her and Luke Xiao, not her.
This annoys the girl, she is Barbara Gordon, not a vassal.
In the corner of the banquet, a lady in a black dress with black gauze on her face quietly looked at Luke.
"He is Luke Xiao, the heir of Hongmen?"
The entourage beside him nodded, "A ruthless character with means and ambition, the master admires him very much."
The lady raised her mouth, showing a little sarcasm,
"The old man also has this hobby, but unfortunately, I am not interested in the little kid. How is the plan going, does the Wayne Group still disagree?"
The entourage shook his head with a solemn expression.
"Bruce Wayne seemed to be aware of something, completely terminated the cooperation plan, and sent someone to secretly track our contact information."
"Oh!"
The lady raised her brows, "Does it seem that the young master of Gotham City is not as unbearable as the legend?"
The follower said in a deep voice,
"Master has already given instructions that you will be solely responsible, using the Wayne family as a breakthrough point to fully control Gotham City."
At this time, as the host of the banquet, Bruce Wayne stepped onto the podium and gave a simple welcome speech. After the speech, the banquet officially began.
The soft symphony sounded, and the guests walked into the dance floor in twos and threes.
Barbara was a little nervous and whispered, "Shall we dance too?"
"of course!"
"But... I won't!"
"I teach you."
With that said, she pulled her into the dance floor. The girl was very talented, and she mastered the knack in a while. The two danced on the dance floor and gradually became the focus of everyone.
After a dance, the two left the dance floor in applause. Barbara's face flushed and looked very excited.
"How am I dancing?"
"Excellent talent."
Luke held out his thumb and turned his eyes to Bruce Wayne who was walking behind him.
"Mr. Wayne, thank you for your invitation. This banquet is great."
"nice! You love it."
Bruce glanced at Barbara. "May I come here to talk?"
"of course!"
Luke patted the **** the shoulder and followed Bruce to the second floor. The back of the two left attracted a lot of attention. There have been rumors that the Wayne Group is very interested in Tesla's kinetic armor. I don’t know the conversation between the two. Is it related to this matter?
It is said that the decoration style of the study faintly corresponds to the personality of the owner, just like Bruce Wayne. The huge study has only the bookshelf and sofa, and the color is dark, giving people an inexplicable sense of depression.
Bruce opened the curtains and said in a deep voice.
"Do you like Gotham?"
"Honestly, I don't like it."
"Because of the crime rate."
"No, because the people here robbed my goods."
"Are you sure it's Gotham?"
Luke shrugged, "I have my own information channel, and likewise, as the half-owner of Gotham City, Mr. Wayne should know too."
Bruce frowned and asked hoarsely, UU reading www.uukanshu.cóm
"What exactly are those 100 sets of kinetic armor?"
"Sorry, I can't tell you."
"Is it dangerous?"
Luke sighed, "The original intention of making armor is for the increasing number of supernatural events, not for ordinary criminals."
Bruce clenched his fists. He ordered special armor from Luke. Although no weapons were filled, the performance of the armor left a deep impression on him.
It is conceivable that once the armor falls into the hands of criminals, it will cause many casualties.
"I remember that Tesla had an express stipulation that it would never produce military weapons." Bruce raised his head and stared at Luke, "Why violate the principle?"
Luke raised his brows slightly and his face sank.
"Mr. Wayne, many things can't be decided by yourself. Just like the Wayne Group, which is not also producing weapons for the Department of Defense, well, let's get back to the subject. You specially invited me to the banquet. Why?"
