Fanwai 31 Summer Vacation(3)
The number of seats at a banquet is always an annoyance, but as a general rule, the closer the guest is to the ends of the long table, the higher the status of the guest.
Eugena's birthday dinner was not small, the 24 guests, all of them were more or less famous, and the only two who were not famous and still sat on the side of the dignitaries were Tanya and Natasha.
"Ahem. Mr. Vanukoczć coughed lightly and reminded the guests to make a toast.
"We have gathered all of you today to celebrate the 22nd birthday of the little girl Eugena, and thank you all for the light, especially Miss Tatiana Yeon and Miss Natalia Yaon. Mr. Vanukoczć made a compliment.
This made Tanya and Natasha the center of everyone's eyes, and the guests finally knew why the two girls they had never met were allowed to sit on the right hand side of the guest of honor, and they did have the right to do so.
Each diner immediately became very dignified, and the waiters who served them were confused. In their eyes, these ostentatious Eastern Europeans would not follow the table manners of Western Europe – but it was clear that both the host and the guest were very polite and elegant, even more noble than the old Western European families.
Tanya and Natasha inherited Lin Yilong's "patience", at least the disguise at the banquet was very good until the end of the dinner.
There was one wave of guests for dinner, and another wave for the party after dinner. Except for the champagne bar and the celebrities who were invited by the big money, they were all Eugena's friends and some friends who knew wine and meat, not like Tanya and Natasha.
Because the two of them were not used to jumping, they sent a message to Lin Yilong during the dessert at the dinner, so Lin Yilong drove a speedboat to pick them up.
"How about attending a purely social occasion for the first time?" Lin joked.
"It's okay, at least it's better than the feeling of our college graduation party. Tanya replied, "Natasha and I have lived up to their respect and given them the respect they deserve." ”
"That's fine. Lin Yilong said, "This is just a gesture, at least I have to help my mother distract herself." ”
"Then we can go home and live in the future?"
"If you want to move out and live on your own, you can also negotiate. Lin Yilong smiled, "However, you should continue to live in London for the time being." ”
"I remember that Dad is still nominally exploring Qinghai-Tibet to eat hot pot, right?"
"That's right, but I'm going to spend the time being on the plateau this holiday and find a place to stop for a while. Let's just sail the Mediterranean. ”
"Is Dad so afraid of the heat?"
"Of course. Lin Yilong nodded, "When you sweat, you feel uncomfortable, but if you swim, you don't feel so oozing when you sweat." ”
The sea breeze made Tanya and Natasha feel a little cold, and they couldn't help but shrink back until they saw the light of the "Taffeta" to feel more settled.
For some reason, it seems that since the beginning of the 21st century, yacht owners have added lighting effects to the design process in order to make their yachts look more fashionable, like a palace for celebrations, and the "Tavi" is not exempt from vulgarity, but because the "Taffeta" as a navigation aid carries more service personnel and sailors, it is the "Taffeta" that is more brightly lit and easier to recognize in the dark sea when berthing or general sailing.
"Mr. Lin!" Hearing the sound of the speedboat's engine, the second mate and a sailor went to the stern side to meet them.
"I'm going back to the Tavi now, and I'm sorry for you to pick it up. Lin Yilong said.
"It doesn't matter. After that, the first mate and the sailor went aboard and replaced Lin Yilong.
At a distance of 100 meters, the stern of the "Tavi" slowly opened, and the three of them boarded the ship.
The duties of the yacht and the navigation aid can be exchanged with each other, and the sailors and attendants of the two ships also know each other, say hello to each other, and sail away.
Lin Yilong's relationship with Nadia and Katie is that there is no way to avoid the crew: the yacht crew has signed a confidentiality agreement, although they have a clear heart, but they cannot tell the specific events that happened on the ship - or, because of the privacy of the yacht, many things that cannot be done on the shore can be done on the yacht - unlike the legendary cargo ocean ship that the captain says the same, the owner is the king of the yacht, and his orders cannot be disobeyed even by the nominal captain of the ship.
"I'm a little hungry and I want to get something to eat, so ask Chef Parker if he can get me something to eat. After Lin Yilong got off the boat, he shouted hungry, "Have the children eaten?"
"Yes, it's Mr. Lin. What would Mr. Lin want to eat for dinner?" asked a waiter named Gabriella.
"Just help me get some macaroni with bacon mushroom milk. Lin Yilong thought about it and ordered this dish.
"What about the side dishes?"
"Sour cucumbers are very good and greasy. ”
"What about other dishes, like sweets and salads?"
"That's enough. Lin Yilong waved his hand and signaled that it was okay.
Gabriela was once the beauty pageant champion in Pará in the Amazon Valley, and after the competition, he was poached by talent scouts to develop his modeling career in Europe, but because he was determined to change jobs, he was sued and banned by a fledgling acting agency. At the suggestion of a former friend, Gabriella's crew agency in the port of Hercules took a job as a "luxury yacht" attendant in order to gain the owner's appreciation and pay off his debts. At her request, the unscrupulous agent recommended her to the yacht of "a 50-year-old single man whose owner is 50 years old".
However, when Gabriella arrives on the ship, she discovers that the owner does not like to sail a lot and has no more partners: the Asian one is the owner of the agency that banned her.
I don't know if it's because of the impression that East Asian countries have been in obscurity for nearly 100 years, or because of other considerations, the relationship between Latinos and Asians is very poor: in the course of Latino interactions, Asians are always perceived as opportunists, nouveau riche, and neocolonists who come to slaughter them, rather than "tourists", "exchange students", or "people who can do business smoothly" like the old colonizers.
Gabriella was inevitably influenced by this propaganda, which was the decisive reason why she picked on Amy when she saw it - everyone had heard about the star-making assembly line factory in Hanyang, and some Latin American trainees were in miserable condition.
"Well, if only I could choose Brother Yilong's crew. Amy came to the open deck where Lin Yilong was waiting for the meal, of course Amy knew this Gabriella, and even her stupid temptation plan could guess one, two, three, four, "If Brother Yilong wants to change the taste, I can at least stuff Brother Yilong's boat with a dozen girls who have been beauty pageant champions and not be so eyesore." ”
"She's a guy who came to the yacht to pay off her debts, so there's no need to kill them all. Of course, Lin Yilong investigated Gabriella's information, "Moreover, don't treat you Brother Yilong and me as a man who only thinks with his lower body, okay?"
"Isn't it?" Amy looked puzzled.
"Of course not!"
