Chapter 147: Sugar-Coated Cannonballs

"Ah, that's right, I forgot to introduce you, that's my wife Lisa, I met her five years ago, then fell in love, and finally got married, she is the woman I really waited for in this life."

"How old is she?" Gao Xi lowered his voice and asked, knowing that it was not good to ask directly about the age of women, so Gao Xi lowered his voice.

"Twenty-one." Old Tom said proudly, but in a low voice.

"Damn, you beast, she was only sixteen five years ago, right? You're actually going to like her?" Gao Xi felt that his three views were about to be ruined.

"She is my friend's granddaughter, she used to go to my place to play, I thought she was so cute, so I liked her, just because she was still young at the time, so I just recognized her as my goddaughter, and after five years of waiting, it was finally the fruit of happiness." When Old Tom said this, he seemed to feel that there was nothing wrong with it at all, but to the ears of Gao Xi, an innocent man, it was completely explosive information, and he simply felt that the worldview, outlook on life and values he had established before were on the verge of collapse.

The sugar-coated cannonballs of capitalism are really powerful!

Gao Xi shouted in his heart!

It took less than 20 minutes for the car to reach its destination, a villa in New York City, where he entertained Wall Street financiers and Democratic politicians, as well as his friends.

Of course, these friends are both male and female, and they come for different purposes and meanings.

"Let it go." If someone else comes here, it must show an invitation letter, otherwise, the few FBI macho men in black suits and black sunglasses standing at the door will not be allowed to go.

Old Tom's home, he won't have to be so troublesome to come back on his own.

The area of the villa is very large, but it is not clear at night, but when the street lights in the courtyard are lit, you can see that this villa is also very beautiful, it feels similar to the park, there is a very unique fountain in the center, it looks like Pixiu.

"Uncle Tom, that can't be Pixiu, right?"

"Yes, that's right, I've heard that in Chinese myths and legends, Pixiu represents fortune and treasure, right? That's why the carving in my fountain is Pixiu. I like Chinese culture very much, otherwise I wouldn't have had such a good relationship with Dong Chen's father. Old Tom said excitedly.

"Ahem, I advise you to change that one, the money is gone." Gao Xi smiled bitterly: "The reason why Pixiu attracts wealth and treasures is because it only enters and does not leave, you are good, use Pixiu as the outlet of the fountain, everything is spewed out, where can you still make money?"

"No wonder! No wonder I said that the bank's efficiency has been declining recently, and several loans have not been recovered, because of this fountain. Old Tom said with a slap on the thigh.

"Damn, you don't have to do this, your bank's efficiency is not good because the US economy is not good, and there are problems in the economic development of the whole world, which has something to do with the fountain." Gao Xi muttered a few words disdainfully in his heart, he felt that this guy was really too good at getting into trouble.

But of course he didn't say it, since people think so, let him think like that, anyway, it doesn't have much to do with himself.

The car drove into the parking lot, and you can see that there are already a lot of cars parked there, all of which are luxury cars in the real sense, and it is estimated that each car, converted into soft sister coins, will not be less than two million, and the expensive ones are estimated to be tens of millions.

"Ah Fu, please take care of my little guest and his female companion, I'm going up to entertain other guests, don't be lazy." After all, Tom is in charge of the charity dinner this time, and it is already very face-saving for him to be able to pick up Gao Xi in person, and now that he has taken it back, he can't always be with Gao Xi, but he still has to accompany the rest of the guests, and the guests who can come here, it is estimated that any one of them will not be worse than Gao Xi.

One of Tom Afu's housekeepers is mainly responsible for the daily operation and maintenance of this villa, and he is an authentic Chinese, which is another reason why Tom Sr. arranged for him to take care of Gao Xi.

Gao Xi got out of the car, drew a scoop with a gourd, and took Scarlett's hand to take the beautiful star out of the car, and then Scarlett took Gao Xi's arm very generously and decently, and followed Ah Fu to the banquet hall.

Along the way, Gao Xi felt that his heart was beating violently, and he couldn't be blamed for it, not to mention a big star like Scarlett, even if it was an ordinary woman, she had never been so close to him, do you say he was excited.

"You guy is really useless, obviously there is a big beauty like me, and you are still so flustered."

Suddenly, Tyrande's voice rang out out of thin air again.

"You're so small, what kind of big beauty are you, at most you're a little beauty." Gao Xi thought directly in his head.

"Hmph, you think I won't grow up, I'm definitely prettier than her when I grow up." Tyrande was upset.

"How long have you grown up?"

"Well, I don't know about this, if it's normal, it will take five hundred years." Tyrande lowered his little head and thought for a moment before saying.

"Five hundred years? By that time my bones had turned to ashes. Gao Xi was speechless.

But what made him feel interesting was that after "saying" these few words to Tyrande, his emotions gradually calmed down, and his heartbeat returned to normal, which made Scarlett on the side also feel a little surprised, this innocent man who seemed to have no experience, could he have opened up so quickly?

When you enter the hall, the first thing that catches your eye is the busy waiters, and then the melodious music ringing in your ears, which is arranged to look like a ballroom, which looks very emotional.

Gaucy obviously doesn't pay much attention to American music and singers, so he doesn't think anything special about what he sees, which is similar to what he did in TV movies.

But Scarlett told him that the band was a very famous band that often performed on Broadway, and that the female singer on stage was a young female singer who had just won the American Music Award, only nineteen years old, but her singing voice was very beautiful.

Gao Xi felt a little surprised at this time, it is worthy of a banquet in high society, no matter what the decorations here are, just this band and this singer, it is not an ordinary person.

"Sir! Lady! Please use it!"

At this time, a waiter came over with a tray in his hand, and two glasses of red wine were placed in the tray.

"Thank you." Gaucy had never eaten pork, but he had seen pigs run, so he reached for one of the wines and said thank you, and Scarlett took a glass of wine and threw a wink at the waiter.

The so-called dinner party, in fact, is almost the same as a buffet, I feel that this kind of banquet in the United States is like this, you can eat whatever you want, you can take as much as you want, unlike domestic banquets where you have to sit on a fixed seat, and you can only eat when others serve food.

"Cheers!"

Gossi touched her glass with Scarlett and took a sip of red wine as Scarlett did.

To be honest, it would be a waste to let this guy drink red wine, especially high-grade red wine. He felt that red wine was not as good as drinks, and if it weren't for the fact that it was a public occasion, he would have preferred to grab a bottle of fruit beer.

Just as he was about to find a place to sit down, he was greeted by a strong-looking guy, and when he saw Scarlett, he smiled enthusiastically and said, "Beautiful lady, I wonder if I will have a drink with you?"
