Chapter 68: Austin's Suspicion (I)
After about 20 minutes of driving, the car drove into the underground garage of a fashionable building on the edge of Central Park, and after the driver Moore stopped the car, he got out of the car and bypassed the front of the car, respectfully opened the rear door, Austin got out of the car first, and then stretched out his hand to the car, and asked the county lady to get out of the car with a gentlemanly demeanor.
Pei Pei directly ignored the hand that reached out in front of her and got out of the car herself. After getting off the bus, I walked to the rear compartment and looked at Austin with my little head held high, the meaning was obvious, return my suitcase!
Austin smiled, "The restaurant I booked doesn't welcome guests to eat with a suitcase, if you bring a suitcase with you, I guess the restaurant won't let you in." Wherever you want to go after eating, I can send you! Put the suitcase in the car, Moore has been in the car, rest assured, you won't lose your luggage! ”
Pei Pei thought for a while, and felt that everyone had already arrived here, and it was not interesting to stalemate any longer. So, she nodded, glanced at the direction of the sign, and took the lead in the direction of the elevator.
Seeing the little girl stride up and throw him a tsundere back, Austin chuckled and followed.
Entering the elevator, Austin pressed the first floor directly, and soon, with a "ding", the first floor arrived.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, led by Austin, Pei Pei followed him to a French restaurant called "Jean-Gees".
"Jean-Gees" is a three-Michelin-starred restaurant that claims to be the best French restaurant in New York.
Located on the first floor of the Trump International Tower in Central Park, Manhattan's most exclusive location, the restaurant is recognized as a trendy landmark in New York and is also known as Vanity Fair for New York's celebrities. There are two kinds of people who often dine here, one is celebrities, and the other is the rich people who have successful careers and know how to enjoy life.
Lilian's family, the good friend of the county lady, belongs to the celebrity class of New York, she once introduced this restaurant to our county lady, according to her, how to tell if a person is rich and powerful in New York? Just look at the number of times he visits the restaurant "Jean-Gees" in a week. Lillian also said that New Yorkers, when describing a person's status, do not say how much money he has, but only say that he eats at "jean-gees." And to prove the status of a New York man, it is to see if he needs to make an appointment to jean-gees.
Austin seemed to be a regular customer of this restaurant, and as soon as he walked in, the waiter greeted him warmly, "Mr. Hercules, welcome!" The old seat where you used to sit has been replaced with fresh violets as you commanded. ”
Austin nodded, crossed his left hand on his waist and turned his head to look at Pei Pei, the meaning was obvious, please ask our county lord to take his arm and enter. The county lord replied with a roll of her eyes, nodded reservedly at the waiter, and said, "Lead the way." Then he rubbed Austin's crossed arm and went in first, and he didn't know if the county lord's mother did it on purpose, and the moment he wiped it, he knocked that arm away.
Austin rubbed his arm, smiled wryly, and walked in after Peipei.
The waiter quickly brought the two to the table.
On the dining table was a beautiful crystal vase with violets and dewdrops in the vase. The waiter politely opened the dining chair for Peipei, Peipei nodded to him and walked to the dining chair, the waiter was about to serve Peipei to sit down, at this time, Austin reached out to block him, directly stuffed a twenty-dollar tip into the other party's jacket pocket, and then waved his hand.
The waiter stepped back and stood aside, and Austin walked up behind Peipei, pushed the dining chair behind her, and made a gesture of please.
A pretentious hypocrite! The county lord's mother complained in her heart, then straightened her skirt, and sat down with the noble and cold appearance she had when she was the county lord before.
At this time, the waiter on the side stepped forward and pulled out another dining chair, and after serving Austin took a seat, he placed the menu in front of the two.
"Jean-Gees' foie gras is famous, would you like to get one?" Austin unfolded the cloth on his lap as he made recommendations for his guests.
Pei Pei didn't bother to answer, and after glancing at the menu twice, she asked the waiter on the side: "Bring me a cod steak, a walnut bread, a French country soup, a drink I want freshly squeezed guava juice, and a chocolate pudding for dessert after the meal, that's all, thank you." With that, he handed the menu back to the waiter, then opened the cloth and spread it on his lap.
The waiter took the order and looked at Austin again.
Austin didn't even open the menu, but handed it back to the waiter and asked, "Give me a set of today's chef's recommendations, and if you want an aperitif, bring me a bottle of '99 from Inneskiling." After speaking, he waved his hand to the waiter.
The waiter nodded and walked back, and after a while, he walked back with a wine bottle in his hand, and after checking the vintage and origin of the wine for Austin, the waiter opened the bottle and poured it for the two of them.
Austin raised his glass and toasted Pei Pei, "How about a toast to our acquaintance?" ”
The county lord lady pretended to pick up a glass of water in front of her and touched the glass with Austin, "The federal constitution stipulates that people under the age of 21 cannot drink alcohol!" So hehe, sorry. ”
Austin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "Yes, under 21 years old, under 21 years old"
He took a sip of his wine glass, lowered his eyes and face, as if in contemplation, and after a while, he raised his head, looked at the little girl opposite with burning eyes, and asked, "Can you tell me how old you are this year?" ”
"I just celebrated my 16th birthday just over a month ago." The little girl smiled sweetly (maliciously), with a childish innocence (pretending), "Mr. Hercules, your career is so successful, you shouldn't be young, right?" Is it 30 years old? I have a cousin who is just 30 years old this year! ”
Austin didn't seem to be struck by the little girl's vicious hints, he smiled lightly, "I'm only 28 years old this year, in the eyes of many girls, I should be considered to belong to the fifth diamond king, a few days ago at a drinking party, there was a girl as old as you who was a model, and hinted to me that she likes mature men of my age." As he spoke, his gaze swept lightly over the little girl's well-developed breasts, "As far as my eyes are concerned, she is not as mature as you!" Also, I said, call me Austin! ”
"You ——!" The county lord's mother, who was swept over the sensitive parts by the other party's searchlight-like eyes, couldn't wait to dig up the other party's restless tricks.
At this time, the waiter came over with a plate and put the pre-dinner soup and cod in front of the county lord's mother, just interrupting the county lord's mother's evil thoughts.
Pei Pei took a deep breath, picked up the knife and fork and slashed at the cod steak in front of her, she said coldly while dividing the cod steak on the plate: "Mr. Hercules, thank you very much for hosting me this delicious lunch, but I still have a plane to catch at two o'clock in the afternoon, so let's go straight to the point, please return the key to Xiaoquan Villa." ”
The corners of Austin's mouth curled, he took out the key from his pants pocket, shook it at the little girl, and put it in his hand, "Austin, call me Austin!" ”
The county lord's mother's eyes involuntarily followed the trajectory of the key to Austin's right-hand position, and she was thinking in her heart with her eyes firmly fixed on the key, how likely is it to rush over and grab it and leave? You don't need a suitcase, anyway, passports, driver's licenses, and other important documents such as property rights certificates and contracts that have just arrived are all placed in the space.
Thinking of this, the eyes of the county lord in the late second middle and second years were raised, and she swept around, and there were people around her, and every ten steps there was a waiter standing on the side waiting for the guests to be summoned at any time, and then visually inspected the position of the dining table and the door, and counted the more than 20 tables and guests in between, and the county lord who was still in her head just calmed down and dispelled this unrealistic thought.
She moved her gaze back to Austin's face, and the county lord showed an aggrieved expression, "Okay, Austin, you won!" Sue me before you agree to give me the key? ”
"When did I say I wouldn't give you the key?" Austin replied with a pretended surprise look, looking at the little girl in front of him pretending to be in front of him, her eyes full of smiles.
When the county lord on the stick, who was the best at fighting snakes, heard this, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to Austin, "That's good!" Give it to me now. ”
Austin smiled slightly, picked up the set of keys from the dining table, and put them on his fingers, his slender fingers rubbing the key teeth of one of the keys, and smiled without saying a word.
