Chapter 31: Renee's Protection
In Paris, France, the same huge manor house, Renee and her husband Jeffrey sent the last guests away from the ball with a standard aristocratic smile.
After entering the hall, the two of them instantly turned into cold expressions, as if the smile just now was just a mask. Jeffrey grabbed Renee's arm, who wanted to leave: "You and I both know that this marriage is just a drama, and I know that I can't have children, this is romantic France, I don't care how you got pregnant, but you are not allowed to play with my rights and wrongs in front of my father anymore", the voice echoed in the empty hall, and the people had long since avoided it.
Renee shook off Geoffrey's hand: "I won't care about your business, the inability to have children is caused by you playing too much with women, blame yourself." Can the old knight not answer me when I ask me about you? I promised not to set foot on American soil in this life, what more do you want? β
"For the sake of that bastard in your belly, it's better to be obedient", without waiting for Renee to reply, she turned around and walked away, probably going to find some female star again.
Renee angrily took off her high heels and threw them far away, lifted her skirt and ran to her room, crying bitterly.
"Miss, you shouldn't be overly sad and bad for the child in your belly", a voice with a thick Oxford accent sounded behind him. It was Wells, the old butler who had watched Renee grow up, and Renee felt more affectionate to him than her own father. Although she has been the housekeeper of Renee's family for a long time, she still speaks French with a strong Oxford accent.
"Thank you, Wells, my father only knows his inheritance, and only you can care about me"
"The lord may have his reasons, all for the continuation of the family. What's more, he only has you as a daughter, it's impossible not to like it, and being ambitious is both an advantage and a disadvantage of a man."
"Okay, let's not talk about that. What happened to the Chinese guy I asked you to investigate? β
"Miss, there are already results. He first bought a farm in Idaho, probably short of money, and then sold two ancestral gems and bought some small property, all small cottages or something. Uh, there's one more thing,......"
"Say, Wells, you guessed it right, he is the father of the child, and I can accept all his faults because he has more advantages"
"Well, that's right, miss. He found a girlfriend of Japanese descent and fought for her, and the other party was a Japanese student who was pestering his girlfriend. The two seem to have a tendency to get married."
"A girlfriend is as it should be, he's so handsome, and ...... ...... is so strong, if you want to find it, the girls will wait in line for him. Now there is only one, much better than some people", seemed to remember the fight with Lan Jiawei in the bar, and smiled slightly: "Pay attention to the international student he beaten, check the family background, the guy who is not reliable, I am not very relieved, what if someone else wants to seek revenge on him?" β
"Yes, Miss. I have a recent photo of him and his girlfriend, do you want to take a look? β
"Bring it, I'll see", Wells went out and came back with a few photos after a while, which were the same group photos taken by the hK photographer. There is also a box in hand.
Looking at the photo of Lan Jiawei and Chiyo Tachibana, Renee smiled and burst into tears: "It's a lot more handsome and stronger." The girl is not bad, I hope you follow JAVY well, help me take care of him, if JAVY is hurt, I will not let you go"
Wells knew that this would be the result, and opened the box in his hand and handed it to Renee: "Miss, this is one of the two gems auctioned by Mr. Lan, which the master specially bought from a Chinese businessman."
"My dad knows about this? It's okay to save the time when the child is born and then explain."
Picking up the B stone in the box, Renee's eyes were confused: "What a loser, ancestral things are sold indiscriminately, ignorant little brother"
He said to the butler who smiled wryly, "Wells, continue to pay attention to his movements, and ...... Help him as much as he can."
"Yes, Miss. As far as we know, he is improving his agricultural products, and he can only wait for help in market development in the future, and he can't help much now."
"Well, I'm tired, good night, Wells"
"Good night, miss"
Renee lay on the bed, stroking her belly, looking at the emerald as if looking into Lan Jiawei's eyes, "Find someone to make it into a pendant, let it be close to my chest, like close to you".
Lan Jiawei didn't know that someone was paying attention to him, and now he was setting off towards the Indian cave with everyone, and he was going to go back, but Zong Sheng knew that he had found an Indian treasure, and he said that he would go and see everything.
Along the way along the path that the grizzly bear stepped on, because it was autumn, many weeds had decayed, and everyone was basically lined up, so it was still easier to walk. Only Park Aiyoung is not very worried about her child, and follows Rose to take care of it.
Although the vertical height is only 400 meters, the straight-line distance is still not short, and it took more than an hour to come to the entrance of the cave. Let everyone take the things off the horse's back first, let the horse rest, and then put down the big hiking bag, drink some water, and rest before going in. Then we will see how it goes, and if we can't, we will camp in this cave.
After a short rest, Lan Jiawei was prepared this time, took out a strong light flashlight, and led everyone to walk inside while saying, "At that time, I followed the footprints of the grizzly bear to come here, and when I went in, I found the wall inside, and I smashed it many times before smashing it open."
"It smells terrible here, it's all grizzly bears, right?" , Zheng Qin, who loves cleanliness, couldn't help it.
"Bear with me, it's good to see the light"
"It's not the fate of getting rich, only people with good perseverance have a chance", Yuan Yi made a joke unconsciously
After a while, when they finally arrived at the grotto, everyone was happy, including the children who were carried by their parents. They were amazed by the design of the natural stone cracks as patios, and they were all discussing what tools were used to dig them.
Yuan Yi was very interested in the mural on the wall: "Jiawei, this is a relic of civilization, I think it is worth more than those two boxes of treasures." Lan Jiawei smiled and didn't answer.
The two children rejoiced: "Oh, I have found a treasure."
Lan Jiawei saw that it was the small locks on the two boxes that he had lost, and said with a smile: "It's amazing, it's yours, kids."
After satisfying their curiosity, the group all returned to the entrance of the cave, listened to Lan Jiawei's description of the top of the mountain, lost interest, loaded the things on horseback, and went home.
It was 7 o'clock in the evening when he returned to the manor, and when he was having dinner, Lan Jiawei suddenly remembered and asked everyone: "Although it is not a country, they are all yellow people, and several of them are going to leave the day after tomorrow, how about everyone make dumplings tomorrow?" β
Because the three East Asian countries have dumplings, everyone agrees. Lan Jiawei remembered that he hadn't invited the farmers and cowboys on the farm to dinner, so he decided to invite them over for a meal tomorrow night with the mentality that one is raising and a group is also raising.
At night, he hugged his fiancΓ©e, who was made weak by himself, and looked at her beautiful face, Lan Jiawei asked: "Chiyo, does anyone say that you look like a Japanese actor?" β
"Hmm...... do you mean Keiko Kitagawa? She's only 160, so she's much shorter than me, and a lot of people have told me that she's annoyed."
"Well, although it is very similar, but your eyes are bigger than hers, your nose is more delicate than hers, and your face and mouth are really similar, okay, don't knock me, sleep, sleep, sleep......"
