Liu Bufan said in time, “Mr. Hockley invited me to the banquet.” ”

“Oh, you must be Mr. Liu who jumped into the sea to save people, good evening.” The waiter was greeted by Karl’s entourage Lai Fujie beforehand, and immediately turned sideways to invite Liu Bufan inside.

Located between the first and second chimneys, the First Class Ballroom is a circular building topped by a glass dome supported by wrought iron supports, and natural light floods the glass into the Grand Staircase.

The Grand Staircase with oak panelling and gilded balustrades, is extremely elegant and luxurious, and the wall at the top of the staircase is decorated with a huge wall clock surrounded by two bronze fairies, representing the Crowning Goddess of Time by the Goddess of Radiance and Glory, in the style of James I.

The stairs spiral down, and below is the ballroom.

The hall is decorated with dozens of chandelier lamps, surrounded by frescoes and lavishly furnished like the Louvre in Paris.

It’s no wonder that the Titanic was built with a focus on taking the high-end route. Third class tickets cost £3 a piece, while the lowest fare for first class is ten times that of third class, and the highest fare is £870 a piece, equivalent to the price of a limousine. One rich passenger is enough to serve hundreds of poor passengers, and of course the White Star Steamship Company has to do its best to serve the rich.

Liu Bufan descended the grand staircase and stood next to a half-luo statue of a Greek goddess at the corner of the staircase, and the noble ladies and gentlemen passing by all paid attention to this abrupt outlier.

The rich people on the Titanic include the heads of several major industries such as American banks, real estate, department stores, railroads, etc., many of whom are richer than Ismay, and even American celebrities with the same social status and influence as John Pierpont Morgan.

For these rich people whose insurance policy is 100,000 US dollars even for one piece of jewelry, Liu Bufan, a lower-class person whose clothes are only worth a few dollars, is very dazzling.

Carl Hockley, the host who invited Liu Bufan to the banquet, and Ruth’s mother, Ruth, came down from the grand staircase, and the two obviously saw Liu Bufan, but deliberately ignored it.

Carl shows off to Ruth that the Titanic used their family’s steel, and Ruth jokes that Carl is responsible if something goes wrong with the ship. The two talked, proudly passing by the guest Liu Bufan, and greeted the noble lady behind him: “Hi, Count Ross, good evening.” ”

Liu Bufan couldn’t help but glance at the noble lady who didn’t talk to him, it turned out to be a countess, no wonder it was even more upset than the countess.

“Mr. Liu.”

At this time, Ruth then slowly walked down, wearing a purple velvet long dress.

Before World War I, the noble ladies of European and American high society dressed more conservatively, and evening dresses were generally tight and floor-length skirts, elegant and solemn, and radiant.

“Miss Ruth, you are the most beautiful rose tonight.”

Liu Bufan greeted Ruth, reached out and took Ruth’s right hand with white long-sleeved gloves, stood on the floor two steps lower than Ruth, imitated the figure of high society, crouched down on the back of Ruth’s hand, and then bent his right arm flat on the front body, carrying Ruth’s arm, his head slightly tilted to the right front, and watching Ruth at any time with the afterlight of his sight.

Liu Bufan’s aristocratic posture of learning and selling now made Ruth feel funny and solemn, and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Carl pretended not to see Liu Bufan and ignored it, but he kept paying attention to his beautiful fiancée, and saw Ruth holding Liu Bufan’s hand and smiling, and his heart was depressed for a while.

The tall and elegant countess wore an extremely luxurious and gorgeous evening dress and then walked into the banquet hall, also greeted Liu Bufan warmly, and then held Liu Bufan’s other hand.

“It’s just left and right, what happened to the ladies…”

The two most beautiful ladies in the banquet hall took the initiative to let Liu Bufan “occupy”, and Karl was so angry that his body was slightly drowsed.

Ruth and the countess carried Liu Bufan left and right, and smiled and took Liu Bufan to explain the rich people in the banquet hall.

The light music of the dining was played, the attendants beckoned the rich people to take their seats, and Liu Bufan was arranged around a large long dining table.

The long dining table is large and houses 16 celebrities, separated by women and men.

On the left is the beautiful and elegant countess, further left is the ambitious General Manager Ismay of White Star Shipping Company, on the right is the friendly and easy-going Madame Bulang, the next one is Andrews, the chief designer of the Titanic, and the next is the Countess of Ross.

Also at the same table were John Jacob Yasted, who looked to be 60 years old American, and his 17-year-old wife who was only 17 years old like Ruth, the same fifty or sixty-year-old celebrity Mr. Guggenheim and his young and beautiful Qing woman, Sir Cosmo, Mrs. Lucille, who designed Xing lingerie and was favored by major European royal families, Colonel Officer Gracie and others.

The most striking thing on the table is naturally Liu Bufan, who is very different from the upper class.

Why do cheap casual Chinese appear in European and American wealthy social occasions that should not have appeared, except for a few people such as the countess, Count Ross, Madame Bulang and Colonel Gracie, other celebrities are wondering, but the cultivation of the upper class restricts them from being curious babies.

After everyone was seated, Sir Cosmo praised Ruth and said to Carl: “Congratulations, how beautiful she looks.” ”

“Thank you.” Carl Hockley has always been complacent that he has a flower-like, loved, and fiancée who can add points to himself in social situations.

Ruth’s mother, Ruth, has an unprecedented sense of crisis because her daughter is praised.

Praise Bai Fumei, and set off the toad more and more.

Her daughter is an upper-class arrogant and must not associate with the toads of the lower class of the Zhong ethnic group in the lower class countries. If her daughter is with Liu Bufan, her noble family reputation will be ruined, and she will not be able to raise her head at all in the noble circle. Without a golden turtle son-in-law like Carl, she will have to sell her property and become a female worker, how terrible….

Action must be taken to drive the toad out of Bai Fumei’s life, and now is the opportunity.

Ruth took the lead in attacking Liu Bufan in a snarky tone: “Mr. Liu, tell us, is it comfortable to live in the third class?” ”

Most of the rich people here were a little baffled when they heard this.

Carl was worried that others would think that it would be unseemly for him to invite a low-class person like Liu Bufan to dinner, and felt that it was necessary to explain Liu Bufan’s origins: “Mr. Liu is a guest in the third class, and he strangely saved my fiancée last night. As a thank you, I invited him to dinner. ”

It’s weird….

The sensitive wording in Carr’s words makes the rich intuitively have an inside feeling.

Many rich people present also disdained Liu Bufan after learning of Liu Bufan’s third-class status, but on the face, everyone still politely praised him.

Ruth was even more unhappy, she wanted to make Liu Bufanlang show her embarrassment of shame, be ugly in public, and be completely expelled from the circle of upper-class people, and be aggressive at the moment: “Mr. Liu, you haven’t answered yet, you won’t refuse to answer a lady’s question.” ”
