Chapter 154: A Visit

……

Watching the huge Airbus A350 passenger plane take off, Guo Shouyun, who was standing in the maintenance hall, stood for a long time until it disappeared into the distance.

In the past week, he and Ma Huateng, Ding Lei, and Zhang Lei have discussed many times around various issues such as the future development of Tencent and NetEase, the development trend of the Internet in China, the future of China's economy, and the future trend of the world economy. Although in the exchange, everyone has not been too different from each other. But after a week, the relationship between each other has changed from strange to familiar, from familiar to understanding, and finally become friends who hate to see each other late. This can be regarded as another purpose of Guo Shouyun to invite Ma Huateng and them to the UK to meet.

For this purpose, he even gave up Christmas, the most popular Christmas of the year in the West. Of course, it also has to do with himself. The spiritual core is still Guo Shouyun, who comes from the traditional Chinese Han people, and has never faced Christmas. In contrast, the Spring Festival is the most unmissable festival in his heart. So when Molly Bevan came home for Christmas, he didn't go back with a piece. When the Lincolns called to ask when he would be back on the farm for Christmas, he also turned down because of the party with Ma Huateng.

However, although he resigned from Christmas, in order to maintain his connections, he lost the phone calls he should make and the greeting cards he should send. Whether it is the Oguanhai family, or Jeff Bezos, who still hasn't heard from him, and his professors of economics and computer science in college, as well as his partners, etc.

"Boss, it's almost time!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "Are things ready?"

"It's all ready as you command!" said Matthew.

"Then let's go too!"

After the words fell, he took out the ticket from his pocket, and Guo Shouyun showed a rare trace of worry on his face. Although he is very confident in his own strength. But now that I have to go to see Molly's father, I am still a little worried.

The distance from London to Exeter is not too far, less than an hour by plane. After checking in at the hotel in the city center, Guo Shouyun took out his mobile phone and called Molly.

"Hey, honey, I'm here!"

"Where are you now?" Molly's crisp but muffled voice came through.

"The Randolph Hotel in the heart of Exeter!" After a pause, "Did you tell your dad about us?"

"Don't you need me to say, Al's big mouth has already told Daddy about us!" Molly Bevan said with a hint of grumbling in her tone.

"Then what is your father's attitude?" Guo Shouyun said with concern.

"It doesn't seem to be a special statement, just asked me about your situation!"

Guo Shouyun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "That's good... By the way, it's already three o'clock in the afternoon, and I'm going to visit you in the evening, right?"

"Okay, then I'll go talk to Daddy!" After a brief hesitation, Molly agreed.

"Hmm!" After agreeing, Guo Shouyun continued, "By the way, can you come over later?"

"What for?"

"I miss you!" Guo Shouyun's tone was tinged with a hint of fiery and ambiguity~ambiguity.

Molly Bevan on the other side of the phone blushed, and from his tone, she remembered the happy time when the two of them were upside down some time ago. Young men and women who are in love, even if they are only separated for four days, will have the longing of 'not seeing each other for a day, like three autumns'!

"I'll try!"

Molly Bevan also has some expectations in her heart. After all, men and women are the same for things like 'sex'. It's just that some are more subtle, and some are more explicit.

"Then I'll wait for you at the hotel!"

"Hmm!"

It's a pity that Guo Shouyun is destined to be disappointed, and within an hour, Molly Bevan called. Old Bewen used the excuse of preparing dinner to entertain his 'future son-in-law' and prevented her from going out. Although this result is not good, it is a good thing that old Bewen did not show his dislike for him.

In this case, Guo Shouyun could only obediently prepare for a visit at night. The gifts were all through Molly Bevan's inquiry, and after the two of them picked up in a London mall together, they didn't need to worry too much. The only thing to worry about is Old Bevan's attitude.

As time passed, the high latitudes of the United Kingdom were darkened very early in winter, and the lights were already on at about five o'clock. By the time Guo Shouyun dressed neatly and went out with a gift, it was already completely dark.

"Boss, do you want me to be with you?"

"No, you can stay here!" This is a 'family dinner', and it's not like that to go with bodyguards.

"How's that, no problem?"

Guo Shouyun, who was half-turned, showed himself.

"Excellent!"

Matthew didn't shy away from his compliments.

"That's good!" nodded with satisfaction, "Give me something!"

After receiving the gift he bought in advance from Matthew, Guo Shouyun pushed the door and walked out, "By the way, now that Christmas has just passed, it is the most lively time of the year, if you don't want to be bored in the room, just go out for a walk!"

"No, I still like to be quieter. Also, I told Yasha that I would call her. ”

Guo Shouyun nodded, "I really envy you for having a well-behaved and beautiful daughter." … Let's go!" After waving his hand casually, Guo Shouyun walked out of the door.

Because of the experience of the last time, Guo Shouyun drove the car provided by the hotel, and found the bar that he remembered well.

Although there is no winter break in the Premier League, there will even be frequent competitions. But Essext City Football is only a third-tier team and few people pay attention to it except the locals. But the locals are mostly enjoying the Christmas holidays, so the bars are a little more deserted than usual.

Guo Shouyun simply glanced inside, and then went around to the back. Molly Bevan had already told him in advance. You can enter through the bar, but the back door is where guests should go.

Because of its centrally located location, the back door of Molly's house is not the kind of villa-style house with a yard. Instead it's more like an apartment. After briefly looking at the heavy wooden door in front of him, Guo Shouyun rang the doorbell. It didn't take long for the sound of hurried footsteps to come to mind.

With a 'squeak', the wooden door was quickly opened from the inside. Seeing Guo Shouyun standing outside the door, Molly Bewenqiao, who was wearing a pink knitted sweater, black close-fitting trousers, and a shawl with long hair, immediately showed a smile of surprise on her face.

"You're here?"

After nodding, Guo Shouyun's heart was full of anticipation and excitement, and he strode forward and hugged the beautiful woman into his arms.

"Bruce, it looks like there's no one else in your eyes except Molly!"

Looking at Al Beven standing on the stairs next to him, half-leaning against the wall with his arms folded, looking at Al Bewen here with a smile, Guo Shouyun let go of the beauty in his arms, "I'm really surprised why are you here?

"Hey! Young Master Ben is talented and handsome, not to mention Olivia, even her family has already been taken down by me!" Al Bevan said proudly.

"But how did I hear Olivia say that you want to be a guest at someone's house for Christmas and she refuses?" said Molly Bevan.

Al Bevan stumbled and nearly fell down the stairs.

"Molly, you're my sister, you don't have to dismantle my stage like this, right?"

"Humph!" Molly Bevan wrinkled her nose, "Go and inform Dad, just say Bruce has arrived!"

"Got it!" After agreeing, Al Bewen glanced at Guo Shouyun playfully, "Hehe, I really hope that my dad's old-fashioned old can bring you a little fun." ”

As the words fell, Al Bevan turned and walked upstairs.

"Bruce, don't worry. My dad is not a difficult person to get along with!" Molly hurriedly comforted.

"I know. Molly, don't worry!"

Although he said that, how could Guo Shouyun, who had experienced this kind of thing for the first time in his two lives, not feel burdened!

After closing the entrance door and taking a brief look at the three-square-meter foyer, I walked up the stairs on the left side to the living room on the second floor.

The living room is not too big, about 40 square meters, and the overall decoration style is biased towards the British classical. There are oil paintings on the walls, apparently by Molly. Judging by their number, it is clear that the owner of the room was very partial to his daughter. As for the soccer ball that my son likes, I don't see anything related to football except for a football trophy on the shelf in the corner.

"Sit down first, I'll pour you a cup of coffee!" Molly said.

Guo Shouyun nodded, and just after sitting down for a short time, he heard slightly heavy footsteps from another downward staircase. Without asking this voice, Guo Shouyun subconsciously stood up.

As he looked, a middle-aged strong man in a black coat, slightly fat and tall, with a thick beard, walked up.

"Daddy!"

Seeing the visitor, Molly put down the coffee and greeted her with joy and a hint of apprehension in her tone. Guo Shouyun followed behind him and followed.

"Daddy, this is the Bruce I told you about earlier!

"Hello uncle, my name is Bruce Guo! It's a pleasure to meet you!" Guo Shouyun hurriedly said, "Oh, that's right. Molly said you like to collect shotguns, so I brought you a handmade shotgun from William!"

As he spoke, Guo Shouyun opened the gift box in his hand, revealing a beautiful shotgun split into two parts, the barrel and the butt, on the crimson lining.

Old Bewen, who likes shotgun collections, is obviously a knowledgeable person, and his eyes brightened when he saw the double-barreled shotgun in the box.
