Just then, a shrill voice rang suddenly.
“Oh, isn’t this Ms. Lisha?”
Hearing someone calling her name, Lisha turned around and looked over in confusion, and so did Jagoan. Then they saw a young but pot-bellied fat man walking over smugly.
The fat man had curly brown hair, light green eyes, and a sharp nose.
One could tell he was a pure City-State Union local. However, he wore an expensive outfit with a gold chain around his neck. He also wore an exquisite gold bracelet on his arm.
The phrase “a rich aristocrat” came to Jagoan’s mind when he saw the fat man.
Lisha burst into a chuckle and quickly introduced him to Jagoan, saying, “Mr. Jagoan, this is Mr. Rapido Kaygene. He‘s a descendant of the Kaygene family who is close to my father. They’re also one of Crosac’s influential families.”
After a pause, Lisha continued saying, “Although Rapido is a City-State Union local, he’s more obsessed with Dragon Kingdom culture than I am. He is especially fond of gold and antiques. He frequently visits antique markets to buy various antiques and gold items. Besides that, he often spends a lot of money on Dragon Kingdom’s porcelain antiques in various auctions.”
Jagoan was in between laughter and tears.
He didn’t expect Rapido, a pure City-State Union local, to go this far in his obsession with Dragon Kingdom culture. Even Lisha could not compare to him.
However, Jagoan still felt honored that a City-State Union local liked Dragon Kingdom’s culture.
“Ms. Lisha, why are you here at the antique market? I’ve never heard of you being interested in antiques! You can approach me if you like antiques. I know a lot about Dragon Kingdom antiques! Besides that, I also have a wonderful collection of antiques, gold items, and porcelain items at home. You can come to my house and pick anything you like! You can even take all of them!” Rapido said gallantly to Lisha.
However, Lisha declined after a cough, “Sorry, I’m not particularly interested in antiques, gold items, and porcelain. I only like Dragon Kingdom’s food, people, and culture. I came to the antique market today to look for something with my friend.”
After hearing Lisha’s statement, Rapido cast a disdainful look at Jagoan.
