Chapter 3: The Tip of the Iceberg

Wu Lurui, the girl she met for the first time today, really walked out of the coffee shop angrily and stood at the door.

Fan Liancheng was happy at this moment, and he didn't have the leisure to care about the sister of his "fiancΓ©e" who had never met.

Anyway, since he heard the news, he never really nodded in agreement, and if the girl who was far away in China didn't agree either, it would naturally be better for him, and he could avoid many of the expected troubles.

Although he was in London and had not been back for a long time, the influence of his wealthy father has always been there.

Even if Fan Liancheng has deliberately not used the money he gave, he still can't get rid of it completely, after all, he is the only seedling in the family, and the family business that others dream of is more like a burden that affects the life he likes in Fan Liancheng's eyes, and he loses a lot while gaining something, that's all.

From the mouth of his friend Zhao Sturgeon, he picked up the freshly lit cigarette and threw it into the pool, Fan Liancheng said: "You are doing business, you can't smoke in the store, you've seen the excitement, is it possible that you still expect me to invite you to dinner?"

"Keep your hard-earned money, and if you want to ask for it, I'll ask for it. ”

While speaking, Zhao Sturgeon's gaze swept over the young man surnamed Ge, intentionally or unintentionally.

To say that Zhao Sturgeon came over today, just to watch the excitement, it would be too underestimated to underestimate him, the main reason is to socialize, and knowing a huge rich second generation of mines is beneficial and harmless to him.

And Wu Lurui went out, but Ge Junfa, who had a better relationship with her, did not follow.

The purpose of staying in the store is also for socializing, and the attention is mainly focused on Fan Liancheng, I heard that smoking is not allowed in the store, so I really stuffed the cigarette box of the Ninety-Five Honor brought from home back into my pocket.

Ge Dashao, who used the train to sell coal at home, said with a smile: "Liancheng, it's the Liancheng of Jin Yong's novel "Liancheng Jue", this name is really good, isn't it just a house, a shopping mall, and a hotel at home, your father just took a piece of land near Sanlitun, it seems that he spent 1.2 billion, such a big deal, even my uncle has never fought for him." ”

Fan Liancheng has never read Old Man Jin's "Liancheng Jue", nor has he heard about his own Lao Tzu taking land again, so he rarely cares about these, and only occasionally hears some when he talks to him on the phone.

Although there are many rich and powerful rich second generations who have been used to being raised since childhood, this group of people is actually only a minority, and more people are like Zhao Sturgeon, who is engaged in construction at home, and Li Xiao, the third generation of Hong, who runs a law firm at home.

As for Fan Liancheng, not to mention, he was sent to London to live and study since he was a child, and he completely lived like an ordinary student, and even had to earn money to work in the dark for a living, often working far more than 20 hours a week, without the bad habits of the rich second generation.

Looking at the one surnamed Ge, it seems to be not bad, but he is a little shrewd, and Fan Liancheng doesn't mind saying a few more words.

After putting a glass of American style on the bar, he wiped his hands and shook his head: "I never ask about family affairs, I don't even know where you said Sanlitun, he was busy with business long before I was born, and it has nothing to do with my name." ”

Zhao Sturgeon interjected, and said in a lazy tone: "It must be that my mind was full of building houses at that time, so I gave you such a name." I'm serious, come all the way here, don't hang us, take a day off, go shopping and eat together?"

Fan Liancheng hurriedly shook his head: "The boss won't let me go, no one will take care of the business in the store when I leave, don't affect my living expenses." ”

"Is this hard?"

Zhao Sturgeon is a cheerful personality who likes to play, not only loves to play, but also likes to pull people to play with him, otherwise he will feel bored.

So at this moment he took out his pocket, took out two fifty pounds with the Queen's face printed on them from a thick stack of banknotes, walked a few steps and patted them in front of the old shopkeeper named Barton, and asked, "Your clerk has a holiday today, OK?"

How could it not be OK.

The old man couldn't understand Chinese, thinking that Zhao Sturgeon had a holiday with Fan Liancheng, he pushed the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose with his fingers, and said greedily: "Give me all the money in my hand, and I can quit him!"

Hell affection.

Fan Liancheng rolled his eyes, but he was not surprised that his boss could say such a thing, it just happened that he was tired from the paper recently, so he really took off his apron immediately, and his clothes and shoes added up to less than thirty pounds, he looked very clean, his figure was very good, and his appearance was also outstanding.

Just met the three of them, Ge Dashao didn't talk much, and he seemed strange.

Even if he is quite rusty, but because he has a bit of a family background, he is still in a very good mood, and he is quickly classified as the one worth befriending, especially Fan Liancheng, who is engaged in real estate in his family, and belongs to a more peculiar kind of person in Ge Dashao's eyes.

The so-called "same kind" naturally refers to having money.

In their circle, ordinary people want to really integrate into it, it is simply difficult to get into the sky, but as long as the strength is enough and the temper is not too bad, they can naturally play together.

"Everyone is studying here, it's not easy to meet new friends, don't grab it tonight, I'll do it, eat first and then club, I'll come to the expenses." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Sturgeon patted Ge Junfa on the shoulder and said: "I like a cheerful person like you, today you arrange, tomorrow I will arrange, these two, one pocket money is not enough, the other likes to play that Taoguang Yang, experience the working life of ordinary people, if they let them come to the east, it is estimated that they can only eat fries and burgers in the end......

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The old man had already put a hundred pounds in his pocket, and turned a blind eye to Fan Liancheng's preparation to leave.

And the French-American student named Adrian had already seen some signs at this moment, but he didn't expect that the young Chinese who drove the supercar were all looking for Fan Liancheng.

I haven't thought further for the time being, but I just wondered how he could get together with them, seeing Fan Liancheng going out with a backpack, he smiled and raised his hand to say hello, but didn't speak.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Wu Lurui originally planned to take a shelf and drive back to Edinburgh by herself, but was retained by the surnamed Ge.

The two are studying at the University of Edinburgh, and the relationship between seniors and sisters made an appointment to go together tomorrow, saying that it was difficult to come to London, and they couldn't afford to go back and forth on the same day.

So even if she didn't want to see Fan Liancheng, she was still ready to accompany her today, Zhao Sturgeon was naturally big-eyed, so she gave the car to her friend Li Xiaokai and asked him to take Fan Liancheng with him, and she went to Bugattiri to rub the car.

Before getting on the bus, Fan Liancheng locked his bicycle and tied it to the street lamp, and then left with peace of mind.

In fact, Fan Liancheng also has a car, on his eighteenth birthday last year, he bought a V12 convertible Continental as a gift, and never drove it once, because he didn't have a driver's license, and the duplex apartment near Knightsbridge was idle, and I don't know if it was stolen.

I went shopping that day, and after eating, I found a No. 1 bar, Wu Lurui held her breath and didn't talk to Fan Liancheng from beginning to end, and Fan Liancheng didn't go to him.

After three rounds of drinking, the others danced, leaving Li Xiao and Fan Liancheng to continue to sit, occasionally clinking glasses and drinking some wine.

Li Xiao's personality is relatively light, his head is very smart, and he is not very talkative, at this moment he hesitated again and again, and finally told: "Liancheng, there is something I have to tell you, but don't say to the outside world that I told you." ”

Fan Liancheng looked curious, nodded and agreed.

I only heard Li Xiao continue:

"Your dad...... Something happened in business recently, but it actually has little to do with him, and he is implicated.

It's not clear how it will be for the time being, but I guess I'll let you go back to China in the near future, so it's best to be mentally prepared, my uncle will be your father's lawyer, and his ability is absolutely first-class....."
