Chapter 212: Berlin, Germany
When Xu Xincheng came back to her senses and looked at Lucy, she had continued to look at something on her laptop, and from time to time she was quickly typing something on the keyboard, her expression focused and serious. Based on past experience, he knew that Lucy had entered a state of flow and was dealing with some very important work matters, and it was not appropriate to disturb her at this time.
Xu Xincheng turned his head and looked at the rapidly receding white clouds outside the porthole, looking at the vast land under the white clouds that quickly receded, the plane was flying at a speed close to the speed of sound, and his brain was also running rapidly......
It took him some time to digest what Lucy had just said, and there was so much information in what she had just said, that in addition to being shocked by her level of expertise in high-tech fields such as smart cars, he was even more shocked by some of the things she had just said about her childhood.
First, since she could speak and read, Lucy has had a very strong interest in all kinds of high-tech, from the age of five, she began to do small experiments, began to develop small inventions, and from the age of six, she began to invent all kinds of groundbreaking inventions.
What kind of concept is this? When he was five or six years old, he was just an ignorant child, let alone developing small inventions, he didn't even know a few words, and it was a little difficult to even do some ten-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Second, since she was six years old, Lucy has been going to her grandfather's company every day, to the company's big lab, which is 100 times larger than BMW's, where there are hundreds of scientific projects. BMW's lab is already huge, a lab that's 100 times bigger, what is that concept? There are hundreds of scientific research projects in that lab, so what is the concept?
Thirdly, Lucy never mentioned to him about her childhood, let alone her family, but this time, she actually mentioned her grandfather.
No, he remembered that Lucy had mentioned his grandfather before, that was the second time they met at the Red Rose Café, the bracelet watch on her left wrist was given by her grandfather, and he clearly remembered that the moment she mentioned his grandfather, there was a sad look on her face. Don't......
And also......
All in all, Lucy just said a lot, but it contained so much information, and as she said, it made people question a lot at once.
However, all the questions, he has been forced in his heart, he can't ask, he won't ask, even if Lucy didn't say let him not ask for the time being, he won't ask, for Lucy, for her privacy, he absolutely respects. He wouldn't reveal these secrets, Lucy trusted him so much, told him such secret information and secrets, he had to be worthy of this absolute trust.

At 16:15, the plane arrived in Berlin, Germany.
Xu Xincheng and Lucy stepped out of the cabin door, crossed a rainbow bridge again, and soon arrived at the pick-up hall through the green lane of Berlin Airport for private jet VIPs, and as soon as they exited the door, he was amazed by what they saw.
This time the pick-up was not a luxury car, but a pure white European-style open-top carriage, in front of the carriage were four tall and beautiful pure white horses, next to the carriage stood a very kind old man, he wore a black European-style top hat, wearing a straight black dress, wearing a pair of white gloves, looking very gentlemanly and very graceful.
The old man kept looking at Lucy with a smile, and when Lucy came to about two meters away from him, he respectfully took off his top hat and bowed to her in an extremely standard English bow, and after getting up, he greeted Lucy enthusiastically: "My dearest Lucy, how are you?" It’s my greatest pleasure to meet you again.” ("How are you, my dearest Lucy? It is my greatest pleasure to see you again.") ”)
“Hi, Albert.” When Lucy got up at the old man's house, his hands slightly lifted the skirts on both sides, squatted slightly, saluted the old man in return, and said after getting up: "It's greatest to meet you again too. How have you been since we last met?” ("It's so nice to see you again.") How have you been doing since the last time we met?")
Lucy had just changed out of her professional outfit on the plane and replaced it with a white silk dress that made her look like the most beautiful angel.
The old man said with a grateful face: "By the grace of God, I have been doing greatest." ("By God's grace, I have always been well.") ”)
“Albert, please let me introduce my assistant to you, this is Steve. Steve, this is Albert.” ("Albert, please let me introduce you to my assistant, this is Steve.") Steve, this is Albert. ”)
Xu Xincheng took two steps forward, shook hands with the old man, and the two greeted each other.
From the old man's British accent, Xu Xincheng knew that he was British, and the old man's words and deeds showed the traditional British gentlemanly demeanor. This must be the person Lucy told him to come and pick them up.
Last Thursday night, when he asked Lucy about his itinerary when he arrived in Berlin on Monday afternoon and the hotel he suggested to stay in, Lucy said that the itinerary and accommodation there had already been arranged, and someone would pick them up at the airport as soon as the plane arrived.
During the exchange of greetings, the coachman in the carriage got out of the driver's seat, and he was wearing a coachman's suit, black, which should be the most standard European-style coachman's clothes. He respectfully took off his top hat to Lucy and Xu Xincheng, saluted, and carried their suitcases to the back of the carriage before returning to the driver's seat.
Albert opened the door to the right of the carriage for Lucy and said, "My dear, please!" ("Honey, please!") said that he put his left hand behind his back, stretched out his right hand, bent down slightly and made a gesture of please, and then moved the palm of his outstretched right hand to Lucy, took Lucy's outstretched right palm, and helped Lucy's right hand to invite her into the car.
After Albert got on the car and sat down firmly, he also made a gesture to Xu Xincheng to please get on the car, Xu Xincheng saw this, nodded in thanks, went around to the left side of the carriage from behind, opened the door by himself, and got into the car.
Seeing that they were both in the car, Albert got into the car and sat down opposite Lucy, and after he was seated, he spoke a word of German to the coachman. As soon as the words fell, the coachman waved the leather whip in his hand lightly, and the four white horses started at the same time, walking slowly and slowly with uniform steps.
Albert chatted with Lucy, and as an Englishman, the first thing he talked about was of course the weather, which he said was the best in two weeks, and asked Lucy about the weather in China. Lucy had apparently known Albert for a long time and knew him well, greeting his family and asking about his granddaughter's studies in France.
Albert went on to say that this year's vines have grown very well and will be ready for full harvest from the middle of next month, and that the champagne and red wines will be of the highest quality this year.
After about five minutes of carriage travel, Albert waved and said hello to the four security guards in the car, and then opened the security barrier to let the carriage through the security lane.
The carriage walked for about three minutes, got out of the concrete road, and turned into a tree-lined gravel road about nine meters wide, and the coachman waved his whip twice, and the four white horses increased their pace, and then the coachman waved the leather whip three more times, and the four white horses began to run slowly.
Sitting in the white European-style open-top carriage, looking at the tall and lush oak trees on both sides of the road, blowing the earthy breeze blowing in his face, Xu Xincheng felt that this moment was really a little unreal.
