Three days later, at Kate's urging, Lin Lei took Yunzhi to the manor where Kate's banquet was held, which was a standard Western-style manor, a garden villa, and a huge swimming pool.
Lin Lei thought at first that he was only participating in a private invitation, only a dozen or so friends' birthday party, so he and Yunzhi were dressed very casually, just a simple shirt and denim shorts, Yunzhi was also plain-faced, with double ponytails plus shorts and short sleeves.
But when I walked here, I found that it didn't seem to be the case, all the people were wearing suits and ties, shiny leather shoes and polite movements, as for the women, they were evening dresses and high heels with all kinds of sparkling tidying, with friendly smiles, smiling and talking about some gossip left in high society, and occasionally there were bursts of soft exclamations.
Although the doorman didn't look at Lin Lei after seeing him, he politely led Lin Lei and Yunzhi into the main venue of the banquet, but this was even more embarrassing, everyone looked at Lin Lei with strange faces, of course, there was also banter and curiosity, but this kind of attention just lasted for a while. In the eyes of these people, Lin Lei and Yunzhi are lucky boys who were invited by Kate.
In their eyes, it is a kind of luck to be able to appreciate the scenery of high society as a poor person.
In fact, Lin Lei has not seen such a big scene, and even higher-level meetings have seen a lot, this time it is just a capsized boat in the gutter.
It's really Lin Lei who doesn't know the gap between the Eastern and Western banquets.
In Lin Lei's opinion, the birthday party should be a relatively private dinner, and it should be a few friends or family members to enjoy this kind of happy time, with a little indulgence and carnival.
It's also a time to have fun with friends.
At most, it's the kind of inviting a few relatives to make a family dinner, and taking this opportunity to talk about feelings with relatives who haven't seen each other for a long time, and talk about each other's troubles and pleasures during this time, which is almost the same.
However, this scene in front of him reminded Lin Lei of the scene of the night banquet of a wealthy family that he often saw in TV dramas, the whole birthday party was turned into a prosperous party, and all the unknown "friends" and "relatives" came here to take advantage of this rare opportunity to talk about transactions in the business field and all kinds of anecdotes.
Meet the so-called elites from various professions, and expand your network by the way, because we are not the only ones who know the truth of "many friends and many paths".
In fact, everyone knows that, just like early Europe, all kings, queens, and nobles may be able to find the same bloodline when they go back to their roots.
This is the result of marriage, of course, there are still all kinds of marriages that occupy the mainstream of communication in these upper classes, just like this time, Lin Lei closed his eyes and knew that there must be more than half of the people in it that Kate didn't know, and it should be from Kate's so-called "boyfriend" family introduced by her uncle.
But since they all came in, Lin Lei also casually mixed around with an indifferent attitude, anyway, others looked down on him, and he didn't look down on these sanctimonious people.
Therefore, after Lin Lei entered, he took Yunzhi to sit in an inconspicuous corner, slowly ate the food provided on the table, and talked to Yunzhi from time to time about the quality of this dish, commenting on one or two.
"Zhizhi, look at this steak, although it looks very good, it is still a little burnt, and the taste of ten percent is only seventy percent at most."
"Then brother-in-law, you must be able to make ten percent of the taste!"
Yunzhi ate the steak that he decided, and then looked at Lin Lei brightly, licked the corners of his lips, and imagined the so-called ten-percent taste of Lin Lei.
Just when Lin Lei enjoyed this adoring gaze and was about to explain to his sister-in-law, a familiar voice came from behind, it was the nominal host of today's banquet, Kate.
"It seems that my friend is a little dissatisfied with today's deliciousness, it seems that the Michelin chef I am looking for is just average in Lin's eyes, how about I, why don't I go to this chef to debate with our Lin, I am looking forward to seeing that old antique being bullied!"
Kate sat on the sofa tiredly, leaning on Lin Lei, obviously today's banquet made the protagonist tired, at least in Lin Lei's opinion, Kate definitely didn't like the tidal evening dress on her body, as well as a lot of metal hanging around her neck and ears, and on her hands.
However, what Kate hates is the envy of many people at the banquet, at least Lin Lei found no less than six or seven envious glances from "noble ladies and celebrities", as for these focuses, do you need to talk about it? Naturally, it was focused on Kate.
Of course, at the same time, there is a steady and eager gaze, if Lin Lei is not mistaken, it should be Kate's so-called "boyfriend" now, of course, if you are not satisfied, it is also possible to have a long-term friend.
"Don't, Kate, you know who I am, I'm just talking casually, you must not go to the main master, that will make me ugly, you must not want your friends from afar to be lost face by others!"
Lin Lei smiled bitterly twice and explained dryly. But Kate is just playing, if she really goes to the Michelin chef, maybe Kate will be kicked out, because these people have a pathological penchant for their own kitchen, that is, they are absolutely not allowed to enter the kitchen.
In their words, the smell of raw people will destroy the taste of food, and it will also make food feel scared, so that it cannot perfectly release the deliciousness of the food itself.
"By the way, Kate, the one over there was introduced to you by your uncle, and he looks pretty good, better than most people, and he's a good man." Lin Lei casually glanced at the young man over there who was talking affectionately with a bearded old man, that is, the person who had been watching Kate.
"It's okay, after a day or two of contact, it feels good, barely able to get along, but if you like it, you can't talk about it, he's not the type I like, I'm too deep-minded, I can't guess what he's thinking, when I'm with him, I feel very tired, it's not easy at all, and this guy is definitely a machismo, which conflicts with my feminism."
Speaking of her "new boyfriend", Kate opened the conversation, and a lot of complaints followed, but in the end she drank a glass of wine and pretended not to say it.
However, Yunzhi listened very carefully with his ears crossed, and when he heard that this Yanma was being controlled by his boyfriend, he was instantly in a very comfortable mood, and the speed of chewing on his mouth was much faster.
