Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

After quickly finishing breakfast and getting everything ready, Li Lin, Caitlin, and the Gila Manns got into the carriage and drove straight to the parliament building at the top of Piltover without any hindrance.

They arrived early.

In the parliament hall, there were only Heimerdinger, Meyer, Polpok and a small number of representatives from other families gathered together in twos and threes.

Karina explained to Li Lin and Caitlin again, and then went to her seat alone to sit down.

At this time, Caitlin glanced around casually, then took Li Lin's wrist and walked to a relatively hidden pillar in the hall.

She wrinkled her nose and said in a rather unhappy tone, "Mom, it's true, how could you blame this matter on someone who has nothing to do with it for the sake of profit..."

"Members of Congress are already divided and may even have conflicts of interest. If your mother doesn't do this, she will become a target of exclusion from other members."

Li Lin was quite unhappy when he first heard Karina's words, but on the way from Gila Mann's house to the parliament building, he figured it out a little.

If you put yourself in Mrs. Karina's shoes, it's quite understandable to ignore the interests of some people who have nothing to do with you for the sake of your family's interests.

Of course, it can only be said that it is understandable.

Zu'an is already suffering from extremely polluted environment and various chemical accidents. People who can afford food and clothing are already living a good life.

If the blame for planning this attack is passed on to Di Cheng, and if Di Cheng continues to be exploited, and more people starve to death on the streets without food, I am afraid that the second riot will return soon.

This is not a scene Li Lin, who wants to resolve the conflict between the two cities, wants to see.

"That's true, but are you really going to do what my mother told you to say?"

Caitlin pouted and glanced sideways in the direction of her mother.

"But what you said makes sense. If we didn't say that, my mother would be at a disadvantage...

"She has taught me since childhood that everything is for the family. If I tell the truth, my mother will be ostracized by other congressmen, which is also not a scene I want to see."

Caitlin was conflicted.

On the one hand, when she and Li Lin went to Zu'an for the first time and saw the living conditions, standards and environment of the people in Zu'an, she had the desire to change Zu'an and the relationship between the two cities.

On the other hand, because her mother had instilled the concept of protecting her family from an early age, she did not want to destroy her mother's operation of the family for many years because of herself.

Li Lin saw Caitlin's confusion and sighed silently, "You don't have to worry about this kind of thing. Just leave it to me. I won't let you down."

Just as Li Lin and Caitlin were finishing their conversation, the sound of approaching high-heeled footsteps could be heard beside them.

Caitlin moved her eyes and saw an elegant, young dark-skinned woman walking towards them—Mel Myrdalda.

"Good morning, Miss Gila Mann." Mel maintained a gentle smile and nodded to Caitlin first.

Then, her eyes focused on Li Lin, "Good morning, Mr. Li Lin, I'm glad to see you again. Due to an accident last night, we couldn't get to know each other properly."

As he said that, Mel stretched out his right hand and wanted to shake it.

Before Li Lin could say anything, Caitlin took a step forward and naturally interspersed between the two of them.

She showed a very standard social smile, stretched out her hand and shook Mel lightly.

"Good morning, Congressman Myrdalda. Li Lin has a relatively reserved personality and is not used to talking to people of high status."

Caitlin deliberately emphasized the words "high status", making her whole sentence seem to have a hint of gunpowder.

Miss Gilla Mann, what does this mean...

The smile on Mel's face froze and she was stunned for a moment. The qualities of being born into a wealthy family made her react quickly.

"Haha, Miss Gila Mann is so funny."

She smiled, seemingly not understanding what Caitlin meant.

"As such a talented craftsman, it is necessary for Mr. Li Lin to deal with big families. If he misses opportunities to advance to the next level due to personality problems, it will be more than worth the loss."

"We in the Gila Mann family are well aware of these issues, so Senator Bromidalda is not worrying about them too much." Caitlin retorted not to be outdone.

The two of them had an invisible verbal confrontation around Li Lin, but no one took advantage of them verbally.

The surrounding air fell into silence for a moment.

Li Lin saw something was wrong with the situation, took a step forward, and at the same time gently put his hand around Caitlin's waist.

Caitlin's face turned slightly red, but she quickly figured out Li Lin's intention, so she didn't struggle and pressed closer to his arms.

According to Piltover law, marriage can occur after a consummation ceremony at the age of 18.

In large families in the upper class, since most marriages are between families, it is rare for young people to get married so early.

But if the family doesn't object, it's not unusual for men and women to express affection for each other and try to get along.

But Caitlin told Li Lin before that Mel was already in her twenties and almost never took the initiative to contact the opposite sex of the same age.

First, as a member of Parliament for Piltover, she could not accept anyone whose abilities were not as good as hers, and there were almost no such talented young people in her age group.

The second is her surname Midarda.

Although she was kicked out of the house because she had no performance, her last name was there, so it was naturally impossible to choose some unknown person.

During this period of time, a talented craftsman from the Gila Mann family emerged and developed epoch-making inventions, and there were two of them.

Coupled with the intimidating-looking set of power armor from last night, Mel, who was already a little wary of Li Lin, naturally didn't want to give up this piece of fat.

Even if he is a member of the Gila Mann family.

Mel is still very confident in her charm.

She believed that as long as she personally took action, a young man with little emotional involvement would definitely be seduced by her.

It was just the scene in front of her that completely shattered her thoughts.

Mel stared dumbfoundedly at Li Lin and Caitlin, who looked very "close".

For a moment, her mind went blank, and she completely forgot what she had planned to say.

The Gila Mann family is so willing to spend so much money that they can even use their only daughter as a bargaining chip...

"As a nobody, I am really frightened by Councilor Myrdalda's concern, but Kate is right. I come from a humble background, and I am really not used to talking to people of high status like you..."

You don't act like you're not used to it at all...

Mel took a deep breath.

She finally understood the other meaning behind Caitlin's words just now.

It turned out that she was afraid that she would steal her man away.

Mel smiled helplessly. It seemed that it was impossible to poach the Gila Mann family. He could only spend more money to establish a cooperative relationship with them in the future.

"In that case, I won't disturb you two."

She glanced at Li Lin one last time, then turned and left without hesitation.

"Hurry up and let go!"

After Mel walked away, Caitlin's delicate cheeks showed a blush, and she suddenly slapped Li Lin's hand around her waist and struggled out of his arms.

"Sorry, this is also a helpless move..." Li Lin spread his hands and quickly apologized to her.

"Of course I know, otherwise do you think I can be so cooperative?"

Caitlin turned around, gently caressing her hot little face with her left hand, and quietly pressing her beating heart with her other hand, and secretly stared at Mel in the distance.

Now let’s see how you continue to hook up with Li Lin!

She quickly adjusted her breathing and hummed softly: "I will forgive you this time, and I won't do it next time!"
