Chapter 407: The Key to the Outside World
After a nearly two-hour drive, Zhou Ming took Caitlin back to Brighton, but Zhou Ming did not take her to the Kendini Investment Bank Building or Harvard University, but to a villa in Fenway. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhou Ming bought a villa for Caitlin here, after all, Caitlin is the princess of the Harusburg family, no matter how Harusburg is declining now, but at least this woman is under house arrest because she is under house arrest by the Addams family, and Zhou Ming always can't say that she is not kind to her. At this time, it is always bad for her to follow her to send someone under the fence, so Zhou Ming bought a villa again, anyway, these millions of dollars are not a matter for Zhou Ming.
It's just that Zhou Ming was a little surprised that when he and Caitlin arrived here, they found that the students in the finance class were waiting at the door, and when they saw Zhou Ming and Caitlin getting off the bus, they bowed together under the leadership of the class leader Chen Shu, the deputy class leader Li Yang, and the League branch secretary Ye Ning: "Welcome to the teacher and the princess of Harusburg!"
Listening to this nondescript welcome speech, Zhou Ming scolded angrily: "What are you guys doing? If I'm not mistaken, you should be taking classes at Harvard now, why did you come to my villa?"
However, the students in the finance class didn't hear Zhou Ming's scolding, because their eyes were attracted by Caitlin.
"Wow! It's so beautiful, it's like a fairy who came out of a painting, and it's so majestic, people can't help but bow their heads in front of her, obviously she is a woman of the same age as us, is this a princess under the influence of the thousand-year-old royal family? It's so surprising, compared to those actors in movies and television, it's a world of difference!"
Many people muttered, but Ye Ning couldn't help but shed tears: "The teacher is worthy of being a teacher, I originally thought that Sister Mu Qing was very beautiful and the most suitable wife for the teacher, but now this Princess Caitlin, she is more suitable, only such a perfect woman can be worthy of the teacher!"
Listening to the words of these finance classmates, Zhou Ming was really helpless, so Zhou Ming scolded loudly again, and they suddenly came back to their senses.
"Teacher, I'm sorry, we skipped class today, because we knew that the teacher would bring a princess over, so we made a special trip to help the teacher, we think that such a big villa always needs servants to do things. Our classmates have already decided that we will take turns to do things, and we will make the princess happy. Chen Shu, the squad leader, said first.
With Chen Shu's first speech, the other finance class students also nodded, and Ye Ning even said: "We will never embarrass the teacher, even if it is a royal princess!"
Poof!
Caitlin chuckled lightly, the beauty of the country and the city, and suddenly made the students stunned, Caitlin owed and said: "You are Zhou Ming's students, right? I am very much about everything you have done, you can think so much about your teacher, and I am also very touched, if you are here as a guest, I will welcome you very much, but if you are a servant, then you don't need it, because I still have servants." ”
Although Caitlin's words were very tactful, it still made the students in the finance class feel a little embarrassed, but fortunately, at this time, Zhou Ming also glared and said: "What are you all still looking at? Don't you understand? Your sycophants didn't shoot well, they all slapped on the horse's legs!"
Zhou Ming's words provoked all the students in the finance class to laugh, and the atmosphere that was a little embarrassing just now suddenly became relaxed, and Caitlin looked at Zhou Ming a few times in surprise.
Zhou Ming and Caitlin were not in a hurry to enter the villa, because although the villa was very large, it would inevitably feel crowded with so many students from the finance class here, so Zhou Ming took everyone to sit down in the courtyard outside the villa, but the students who usually surrounded Zhou Ming were obviously more interested in Princess Harusburg who they met for the first time.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Caitlin, I know that Harusburg was the most powerful family in Europe in the past, so what happened to those mysterious families in Europe? Are these families really disappearing now?, or are they all hidden among the people?" Ye Ning took Caitlin's hand and asked, and Ye Ning's question was obviously what the other finance class students wanted to know.
To this, Caitlyn replied: "In fact, there is nothing mysterious about the big families in Europe, at first because they were very famous in the local area, and then they were knighted by the Holy See or the kingdom, and then these territories with territories continued to expand their territories through wars and marriages, and finally became powerful kingdoms, and finally became a generation of emperors after the coronation of the pope." ”
"As for the Harusburg family where I lived, a thousand years ago, it was just a small count of Alsace, and then the throne of the Holy Roman Empire was vacant, and the European princes did not want a strong king, but also wanted a puppet, so they chose the Harusburg family, but no one expected that this choice made the rise of Harusburg, and my ancestors achieved the most powerful country in Europe through conquest and marriage. ”
Caitlyn paused here and said, "But this is all in the past, and today, although those kingdoms no longer exist, most of the nobles still exist, but they all appear in front of people in a different way. ”
"Is it a businessman or a politician?" Li Yang asked subconsciously.
Caitlyn nodded and said, "That's right, the West is not the same as the East, we are very respectful of blood, and the nobility is also authorized by the gods, even if in the past few hundred years, the Great Revolution has stripped them of their territory, but no one can take away their wealth." ”
"It can be said that the famous families that were active in history in the past are still very active today, but they have appeared in another form, because they have all become monopoly conglomerates, including the United States, they are controlling the world in the shadows. Caitlin said.
Listening to Caitlin's words, all the students in the finance class were very excited, because this was information that they couldn't hear anywhere, Chen Shu asked at this time: "So these wealthy families in the past, do they form the outside world?"
Caitlin smiled at this, "You can say yes, you can say no." ”
This ambiguous answer confused everyone, and Caitlin then continued: "Okay, that's all for today, there are some things, when you see more and have more contact, you will naturally understand, and now you are anxious to know that it may not be good for you, maybe, in the future, you can also get a completely different answer, or rather, you can start with the United States as a country to really understand." ”
The finance class felt even more incomprehensible about Catelyn's words, but they didn't ask much, because they all understood that since Catelyn said this, there must be a reason for her, and they had been bothering here for too long.
As the students left, Zhou Ming said 'thank you very much', and Caitlin looked at Zhou Ming with a smile and asked, "What do you want to thank me for?" Did I cooperate with you and say that I was your girlfriend and let Christo let me go, or did I help you answer your students' questions and keep their curiosity alive?"
"It's both, although we've only met twice from Yanjing to Brighton, but I have a hunch that you'll cooperate with me. Zhou Ming said, "It's just your or your family's reputation......"
Caitlyn then asked, "Do you say this to compliment me on my intelligence, or do you want to show that you are not self-inflicted?"
Faced with this sudden question, Zhou Ming was stunned for a moment, and before Zhou Ming could think about how to answer, Caitlyn said again: "Actually, it is not impossible to save the reputation of me and my family, that is, I really become your wife." ”
Zhou Ming was dumbfounded at the time, although Zhou Ming had thought of this method before Caitlyn spoke, but as Christo said before, that kind of thing is too incredible, I'm afraid I don't believe it, but now I didn't expect Caitlyn to really say it.
"This ...... Is it Your Royal Highness the Princess, are you proposing to me?" Facing the delicate face that was close at hand, Zhou Ming asked such a sentence.
Caitlyn didn't seem to expect Zhou Ming to ask such a direct question, she was also stunned for a moment, but then she smiled: "I think you can think so, besides, if you are destined to be my future husband, then you don't need to call me Your Highness, in fact, I don't care about the title that has long existed in name only, you can call me Theresia or Caitlin." ”
Zhou Ming swallowed his saliva unconsciously, because Caitlin was very close to him, Zhou Ming could smell a trace of fragrance emanating from Caitlin's body, which was different from the lavender fragrance on her clothes, but a special milk-like fragrance, which emanated from Caitlin's body, although it was impossible to say what the specific smell was, but it made people feel very comfortable.
And Caitlin's delicate face and her full red lips are also in front of her, and people can't help but want to kiss them.
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Ming suppressed the impulse in his heart, and held Caitlin with both hands, keeping her away from him a little before Zhou Ming said: "Okay, I can call you Caitlin, but when it comes to getting married, I think it's too early for us to talk about it." ”
"I'm twenty-three years old this year, and in Europe, the average girl in the family is engaged when she is twelve or thirteen. Caitlyn tilted her head.
"But now we're not in feudal Europe, are we? Zhou Ming continued, "Besides, I also have a girlfriend, and there is even more than one woman who has a relationship with me, so I am not a good man who is dedicated to me." ”
Caitlin nodded: "Of course I know, one Lin Muqing and one Tang Ran, they are now in San Francisco, maybe you can add the girl who went to Peking University with you four years ago, right? But I don't care, because among those wealthy nobles such as earls and dukes, which one of them doesn't have a lover outside? As the heir of Harusburg, I can accept it." ”
Zhou Ming was helpless: "Her Royal Highness Princess Caitlin, I know that it was very irresponsible for me to say that you are my wife, and it has also caused damage to the reputation of you and Harus, I can apologize to you for this, and even I can find a way to make up for it, instead of marrying by mistake." ”
Caitlin shook her head: "It's not that it's wrong, it's that I've been thinking about it for a long time, do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't hesitate to sell his reputation in order to leave the Addams family?"
"Of course I didn't mean that, but ......"
Zhou Ming wanted to explain something, but Caitlin interrupted Zhou Ming and said: "There is nothing, I think our union is very reasonable, you need me, I need you, and most importantly, I am the key to you to go to the outside world." ”
