Chapter 719 Volt Line
When the cruise ship arrived in the small town of Yangshuo, it was already completely dark.
The cool rain began to fall during the night.
Before leaving Shanghai, Lin Su asked Girl A more than once if she needed to prepare a place for Simon in advance, according to the man's itinerary, she would definitely settle in Yangshuo tonight. Alison just said that she had already made arrangements in advance and didn't need to worry about it.
Originally, there were some doubts.
Simon Westeros is certainly his first time in China, and even if the Yangshuo scenic spots, which began to open to international friends in the 70s, are well-known overseas, it seems unlikely that the other party will arrange them in advance.
If she doesn't entertain the other party well, it will only be her dereliction of duty.
Arriving at the destination, Lin Su found that his previous worries and doubts were completely unnecessary.
Very redundant.
Looking at the quaint courtyard on the east side of the Li River, which sits on the top of a hill and overlooks the Yangshuo city on the west bank and the surrounding peaks, Lin Su even had a faint sense of unreality.
The annex is clearly well designed.
Entering the interior of the annex, under the reflection of the street lamps in the classical wood carving style, Lin Su looked at the surrounding pavilions and pavilions, blue bricks and blue tiles, even if he could not see the farther surroundings at night, he could imagine the perfect integration of this courtyard and the surrounding landscape scenery. Walking all the way through the bluestone road, it is roughly visually estimated that this annex with the layout of the ancient courtyard will not cover an area of less than ten acres, and may even exceed one hectare.
After receiving a special instruction directly from the central authorities to receive a distinguished guest in accordance with the treatment of state guests, several leaders of Yangshuo County have just come forward to personally pick up the guest at the wharf.
Lin Su looked at the figure of a young man who was surrounded by the two leaders of the county government in front of him, and finally couldn't help it, and asked a staff member of the county government: "Secretary Liu, here, I look very new, when was it built?"
The secretary surnamed Liu didn't know Lin Su's identity very well, and when he heard this question, he thought for a moment before he said respectfully: "About two years ago, an Australian Chinese businessman whose ancestral home happened to be Guangxi wanted to build a residence in our Yangshuo and intended to use it for vacation. It is said that the Chinese businessman has a $1 billion investment fund in his hands and intends to invest all of it in China. After the provincial government studied it, combined with the Chinese businessman's own opinions, it specially approved this area on the top of Dongling Mountain. It was an honor to be present today to Mr. Simon Westeros. ”
Lin Su had carefully studied the resume of a young tycoon in advance, and she keenly caught the word 'Australia' from Secretary Liu's mouth.
Simon Westeros's wife is from Australia, and has also invested heavily in Australia over the years, including the Australian mining giant Billiton, which is run by the Johnston family and can also be said to be part of the Westeros system, has been increasing cooperation with China's domestic steel industry in recent years.
In addition, the 'Chinese businessman' mentioned by Secretary Liu, in Lin Su's view, is more likely to be just a Chinese fund manager.
In the 90s, billionaires were not so common, and there may be no shortage of Chinese businessmen with a net worth of $1 billion in Southeast Asia, but when it comes to Australia, she has never heard of it.
Then, if you think about it, some truths are about to come out.
The estate may be in someone else's name, but the real owner behind it is more likely to be Simon Westeros himself.
Lin Su knew that the super-rich man had a habit of buying properties all over the world.
What's more, such a luxurious villa on the top of a mountain with a wide area is probably only Simon Westeros has the financial resources to invest in the construction, and it was completed in just two years.
The county leaders just sent Simon to the door of the inner courtyard and stopped at the point of interest.
A man never showed up after entering the inner courtyard, but Lin Su was responsible for arranging the follow-up, cooperating with Girl A to arrange the accommodation and dinner of many entourage, and coordinating and arranging a team of armed police sent by the county to be responsible for security and guarding, and finally followed Girl A into the inner courtyard together, and the time was already more than eight o'clock in the evening.
Suddenly I was nervous.
She had been instructed in advance to meet all the requests of the VIP as much as possible.
This hint is already very obvious.
Lin Su knew that he could actually refuse.
Just, and then what?
Since he was a child, he has lived in the system and enjoyed the superior life brought by the system, and at the same time, Lin Su can also feel the insignificance and powerlessness of individuals in front of the state apparatus.
Just like this time.
Lin Su knew very well why he was arranged to take over such a benefit, and it didn't seem that there would be too much work.
Because she just rejected the pursuit of a leading son some time ago, the leading son is 36 years old this year, has been divorced three times, and is restless on weekdays. Lin Su was 30 years old, in order to get a doctorate, she did not leave the campus of Zhejiang University until she was 27 years old, and then went to the United Kingdom for a year to study.
Due to Lin Su's own resistance, the Lin family failed to marry their daughter before the age of 30.
Lin Su did not deny that it was indeed because her vision was a little high.
Age has become her disadvantage again.
I can see it, others have scruples about her age, and I don't mind her age, but she can't look down on her for various reasons.
As a result, he was suddenly pressed into such a job.
In a side room in the inner courtyard, after eating dinner alone, Lin Su began to fidget.
Quiet in the mountains and deep courtyards.
If he calls out to himself and refuses, he may just break in.
When the time comes, no one will pay attention to it if it is probably called a throat cut.
Well.
Chen Qing's Nizi is obviously willing, and very active, maybe she can be in front.
But what if he wanted to be two people together?
The study tour in the UK was two years ago, because it is also an English-speaking cultural circle, and for Simon Westeros, even if she was unintentional, she had unknowingly heard a lot of gossip about the other party.
At least on the male and female side, this is also not a good man.
In Western parlance, it's a playboy.
It's just that, thinking about getting along with him since yesterday, Lin Su suddenly felt that this was really a man who didn't resent him at all. Not to mention the huge wealth he has, but the talent shown by this man is simply heartbreaking, a 26-year-old young man who has never set foot in China can not only speak Mandarin so well, but even have a deep understanding of all kinds of Chinese culture.
In the morning, he only listened to it once and recited the paragraph 'It turned out that Yin Ziyan was all over the place', Lin Su was really surprised.
However, it is probably only such a person who can create a huge empire of wealth in just eight years.
There are always miracles in this world.
Simon Westeros is clearly one of them.
Sitting alone in the living room of the wing room, leaning on the table and holding up his chin and thinking about all kinds of nonsense, when he came back to his senses, the time was already more than ten o'clock in the night.
No one came to summon her.
No one broke in.
Suddenly, Lin Su found that he should be a little self-inflicted. She is indeed a beauty in China, but the aesthetics of Westerners are not the same as those of Orientals, and she probably knows that Westerners think that Oriental women with angular faces and high cheekbones are good-looking, and her soft face shape has nothing to do with these special features.
Perhaps, in the eyes of that man, he is ugly.
Inexplicably, the mood began to be bad.
After living so big and being proud for 30 years, I suddenly found that I might be an ugly monster, how could I be in a good mood?
After all, after a busy day, I let go of some thoughts, and tiredness hit. The courtyard-style courtyard, some of the interior design is more westernized, this wing room has a matching bathroom, comfortable to soak in a hot bath, a little longer, and then almost want to sleep in the bathtub.
In the bedroom, the retro bed, everything is brand new.
Blowing dry his hair, he didn't want to pay attention to anything else at all, so he took off the bath towel on his body and went straight into the bed.
Then there were some OCD episodes.
Is the door locked?
Have it?
Didn't you?
Never mind.
No matter.
I woke up to the faint sound of birdsong and looked at my watch in a daze, seven forty o'clock.
Sky!
Hurriedly dressed and washed, and left his room, it was already eight o'clock.
The moment you step out of the door, the mist fills the eyes, and after a night of rain, the sky does not clear, and you look around through the cracks in the building, and the peaks and mountains loom, like a fairyland.
I suddenly felt that it would be good to be able to live in such an environment for the rest of my life.
It's best to have someone with you.
Fairy couple.
This word came to mind, and Lin Su only felt that his cheeks were slightly hot.
walked to the door of the main house where Simon lived, knocked on the door, and the door was opened by a flight attendant accompanying Simon, who naturally became a waitress when she left the plane.
Yesterday on the plane introduced each other, Lin Su greeted each other in English, and couldn't help but look at the girl who didn't know if it was the girl who spent the night in this main house last night, the two chatted a few words, and learned that Simon was on the viewing terrace on the west side of the courtyard, and after thanking him, he walked through the layers of courtyards to the west.
When you step out of a side door, you will see a terrace with a view built on the edge of a cliff.
Compared with the scales and claws in the courtyard just now, at this time, it is a beautiful picture that makes people feel intoxicated.
Near the picture scroll, a man wearing a simple black jumper and khaki slacks sat cross-legged on the low table next to the railing, playing Go with Chen Qing, the two talked and laughed, and they looked very affectionate, and the A girl smiled and leaned next to the man, not hiding the intimacy between the two.
Seeing her appear, the man greeted her with a smile and asked if she could play Go.
My grandfather was a professor of Chinese at Zhejiang University, and although he majored in international relations in college and planned to enter politics like his parents, under the influence of his grandfather, Go was certainly not a problem.
Seeing her nodding, the man immediately patted his side and asked her to come and help, but he couldn't get down to Chen Qing.
There's always something you can't do.
A strange thought flashed through her mind, she walked over and sat down next to the man, and then, feeling the warm breath of the man next to her in the coldness around her, she was suddenly a little distraught.
Pretending to look at the chessboard calmly, it is obviously a very rudimentary game.
Knowing that Chen Qing is a high-achieving student, maybe a few years younger than her, her ability is definitely not bad at all, obviously she is deliberately letting him. The man didn't hide it, and took the initiative to admit that he was given up by Chen Qing to his six sons, and it seemed that the chance of winning was still not big.
The game continues.
On the opposite side of the short table, Chen Qing looked at Lin Su, who was next to Simon Westeros, and suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. In the blink of an eye, he began to deliberately concede chess, intending to lose as soon as possible, and then he could excuse Lin Su to be too powerful, exchange positions and join forces with the opposite man.
The man said that he wanted to win, but Lin Su didn't know Chen Qing's chess strength in the end, so he instinctively did his best according to the man's instructions.
Easy wins.
Then I heard Chen Qing on the other side say coquettishly that Sister Lin is too powerful, plus the men around her, she can't do it, and suggests that she join forces with Simon, so it is fair.
The man was very talkative and smiled in agreement.
It wasn't until sitting across from him, looking at the girl who leaned against the man and took the initiative to touch her body twice from time to time, that Lin Su reacted to what was happening.
Some angry.
But he was even more unkind, he didn't plan to take care of the man's face anymore, and wanted to make the scheming woman on the other side cry first.
Do all in one's power.
As a result, he lost.
The man is very happy, Chen Qing is also very happy, she has some grievances in her heart, she has to be strong in her bones, of course she will not show it.
So I continued.
In the spirit of 12 points, you must win.
It turned out to be another loss.
Recalling the two games of chess just now, Chen Qing always pressed her faintly, which would not seem too disparity, but it made her powerless to resist.
This is clearly deliberate.
Bullying.
A little unbelieving, continue with the third game.
There is still no suspense in the result.
The man seemed to know nothing about this, but if you look at the smile on his lips, it may not be the case.
Suddenly realized that this is a guy who likes to watch-for-tat between women.
Bastard.
and the Chen Qing who leaned against him unabashedly.
Can you wave a little more?
"Simon, do you want to continue, I think Sister Lin is getting better and better, and she may lose next time. ”
"In this case, then stop, don't give her a chance to turn over. ”
"Hehe, Simon, you're so bad. ”
"Is there a saying in China that men are not bad, but women are not loved?"
Chen Qing covered her mouth: "Ah, you know this too?"
"yes. ”
"Simon, you're so knowledgeable. Well, knowledgeable, that's what it means to describe a person who is very knowledgeable, hmm, isn't my explanation a bit redundant?"
"Yes, yes. ”
Lin Su silently packed up the chessboard, listened to the conversation between the two, and felt that he wanted to rush to the railing and vomit.
Men are not bad, women are not loved.
Is that a good thing?
Slandering, only to hear Chen Qing suddenly ask again: "Simon, if I guess correctly, this courtyard is yours, right?"
Lin Su couldn't help but prick up his ears.
Originally, I thought that the man would quibble a few words, or talk about him left and right, but unexpectedly, he readily admitted: "Yes, I am used to having a completely own residence wherever I go." ”
"So, you're going to come to China a lot in the future, right?"
“Maybe。 ”
The chessboard was packed, and at some point, Girl A, who had quietly left, walked back from the side door, holding a tray with some tea and snacks on it.
Then I remembered that I hadn't eaten breakfast yet.
Seeing that girl A specially handed her a breakfast, and sat down next to her, without disturbing her boss and a certain girl on the other side, Lin Su thanked her and found a topic to chat with Alison, but she couldn't help but listen to the conversation between the man and Chen Qing.
Sure enough, it was his.
Then, the mood was mixed again.
A certain guy, for his future trip, actually spent a lot of money to build a manor on a hilltop in a foreign country a few years in advance.
Such a man, Lin Su suddenly felt that it was really, a little scary.
