Andy Morgan's mansion is located at 87 Billionaire's Avenue. Lu Jing went in a BMW roadster sent by Andy Morgan.

Mansion 87 is a rolling stretch of houses. Soft limestone exterior walls, white submarine coral stones, boxy roof structure, rational realistic style. By the master designer Addison Mies. Addison Mies was the architect of Palm Beach in the 20s.

The dinner is scheduled for 8 p.m. After Lu Jing arrived, he met Andy Morgan on the second floor under the guidance of the housekeeper. He was talking to Jessica Fullrim in front of a floor-to-ceiling window.

On the horizon, the last rays of the setting sun burned the last fiery red in the dark sky, and the tall palm treetops were dyed golden red. The surface of Lake Worth sparkles, and a lake bird skimmes by with great leisure.

The three greeted each other, and Andy Morgan invited Lu Jing to sit down. The housekeeper brought tea in. Andy Morgan smiled and asked, "Lu, didn't Miss Xu come?" ”

Lu Jing explained with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Xu Xue is a little unwell temporarily. Rest in the hotel. ”

In the past few days, he and Xu Xue have been completely in a state of love on vacation. Wherever the excitement goes, it will linger.

Xu Xue's beautiful style floated in his mind. At the extreme, the long, whimpering sigh and spasmodic tightness made him almost disarm.

Andy Morgan smiled: "Lu, there will be a charity ball later." Then you're missing a dance partner. Looks like you're going to have to use your charm to invite our female guests at the ball. ”

Lu Jing smiled bitterly and rubbed his eyebrows, "Mr. Morgan, I'll try my best." "It's okay to invite female guests to be female companions.

Although as Xu Xue said. To be able to come to Andy Morgan's home for a dinner party is no longer a pure newcomer to the circle. is a step forward. But he wasn't a well-known figure in Andy Morgan's personal circle either.

When the dance was almost over, he would finish the party early. Go back to the hotel to accompany Xu Xue.

Andy Morgan smiled and picked up the teacup to drink the tea.

Jessica Fulming wears a beautiful sleeveless white dress. Sexy and beautiful, with a light and familiar woman's style, she said puzzledly: "Lu Jing, why didn't you agree to my father's mention in the afternoon?" Don't you want to come to Palm Beach for a vacation? ”

Her father is still angry. Didn't come to tonight's dinner. Some of her father's words were still swirling in her mind.

Lu Jing was stunned, this question was asked...! And next to it, there is Andy Morgan.

After thinking about it, Lu Jing said calmly: "Jessica." I actually want to own a vacation home in Palm Beach. But Mr. Fulin wants to connect this matter with the fact that I donated it to your foundation. I don't think it's appropriate. So I refused. I didn't need to get into Palm Beach that way. ”

Jessica Fulin nodded lightly and smiled beautifully.

Andy Morgan was pleased with Lu Jing's answer and said, "Lu, a villa at 64 Billionaire's Avenue needs to be sold. I'll introduce you to your neighbors later. Whether you can get their approval or not is up to you. ”

It was a little test for him.

Lu Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Morgan, thank you." ”

Re-entering Palm Beach was a slap in the face for old Fulin Ming. However, Andy Morgan apparently didn't care about the reaction of old Fulming.

…

…

There were more than 20 people at the dinner. In the luxurious and classic dining room, the long oak table is served with exquisite dishes and drinks. Handsome waiters in waistcoats serve the guests. Very authentic western food.

After eating. The guests chatted in twos and threes. Andy Morgan's old butler in a tuxedo directs the servants to set up the venue for the charity ball on the first floor. The guests invited to the charity ball are gradually arriving.

Lu Jing was talking to Kenny Potter, who he had just met, by the flower bottle in the living room on the first floor. After dinner, Andy Morgan introduced him to several new neighbors. In terms of communication scenes, Lu Jing can still handle it, and he chatted well with a few people.

He and Kenny Potter are the most talkative. Before the prom begins. Make small talk on the sidelines.

Kenny Potter is a man in his thirties with curly blond hair. Cheerful personality, fond of travel photography and other hobbies. There is no open mouth for philosophy and art, and the dull atmosphere of economy and politics is closed.

He is a descendant of the Moon and Baker families.

The family of the former Lord of Palm Beach.

Kenny Porter enthusiastically introduces the terroir of Palm Beach to the landscape. "Marjorie Post came to Palm Beach in the '50s. Mrs. Post's banquet was the grandest and most formal occasion on Palm Beach at the time. In 1985, Post's villa was sold to American real estate tycoon Donald Trump. It was later converted into a private club. It has also become a club where everyone often gathers. ”

"Summer and autumn are the summer and autumn months, and it's cold here in Palm Beach. The permanent population of the island is about 10,000. In winter and spring, it is a tourist destination. Ranked among the best winter resorts in the United States. During the peak tourist season each year, Palm Beach is home to more than 100 charity banquets. As a result, Palm Beach has become the most fraternal city in the United States. ”

"Lu, it's a very good thing if you can come and live in Palm Beach. Oh God, you don't know how tired I am of art and philosophy. I'd rather pass the time by reading a few Playboy books. ”

Lu Jing smiled when he heard this.

Socializing and socializing are necessary for interpersonal interactions. Stories that hit home at first sight, after all, are in the minority.

….

…

Andy Morgan's villa is 12 acres and is very quiet. After the dance began, Lu Jing did not invite the beauties with different styles to dance. Under the pretext of smoking a cigarette, he slowly walked out of the living room on the first floor.

The three-storey villa has an elevator to get around. As soon as Lu Jing was waiting for the elevator at the elevator entrance, he saw Jessica Fullin Ming, who was wearing a beautiful sleeveless white dress, walking briskly, with a slight tear stain on her face, which was very moving.

Jessica Fulin walked up to Lu Jing, wiped her tears, and asked, "Lu, didn't you go dancing?" ”

Lu Jing shook his head, "I'll go to the lounge on the second floor to smoke a cigarette." What about you? ”

When the elevator came, Lu Jing made an inviting gesture, and Jessica Fulin Ming occupied the elevator and wept, "I just had a fight with my husband. I want to be alone. Lu, give me a cigarette later. ”

Jessica Flimming was familiar with Andy Morgan's villa and took Lu Jing to a terrace on the second floor for a cigarette. The terrace is a square and surrounded on three sides by beautiful metal balustrades. From the terrace you can see the pool in the villa and the nearby Lake Worth. The scenery is excellent and very secluded.

"Lu, my father thinks you approached me for a purpose, and he was very angry after you rejected him this afternoon. After my mother's death, his temper became more and more grumpy. Jessica Fulling said, lighting a cigarette.

It doesn't matter if Lu Jing approached her for what purpose. Lu Jingshi donated $150 million to her. This is a huge amount of money within the family, and she is grateful for it.

Lu Jing was slightly stunned, he thought that Jessica Fulin would talk about her marriage. He knew from Marvin Crown that Jessica Fulling and her husband, Jonathan Wood, had been separated for more than two years.

took a puff of cigarette and looked at the quiet lake in the night in the distance, the environmental protection abroad is very good, and the scenery is extremely beautiful, Lu Jing said: "Jessica, I understand your father's feelings of protecting his daughter." ”

Saying this, it's just to comfort Jessica Fulming. In fact, Lao Fulinming's bad attitude in the afternoon made Lu Jing feel a thorn in his heart. He didn't mind teaching Old Fu Lin Ming how to be a man when it was right in the future.

The information of the Fu Lin Ming family had been collected before Lu Jing, Chen Xujiang, and Xu Xue came to the United States. After all, this was one of the American families in the circle behind the JPMorgan Chase, which was already known at the time.

The Fringer Group was founded in the United Kingdom in 1873 and is headquartered in London. In his early years, he focused on investing in emerging US stocks and railroad bonds, which was a great success.

With the end of the tide of railroad construction in the United States, the business of the Flinming Group in the United States has gradually shrunk. The main business shifted to Asia. The Asian financial crisis in '97 dealt a heavy blow to the Flinming Group's investment in Asia.

In 2000, the company would be sold to Chase Bank for $7.7 billion. The Flinming family has only a 30% stake in the Flinming Group. But this is shared by 130 family members.

In 2001, the banking business of Jardine Fleming, wholly owned by the Flimming family, was acquired by Standard Chartered Bank and Great South African Bank. It is now renamed JF Asset Management and is part of J.P. Morgan Flinming Asset Management.

The Fu Lin Ming family has long since lost its former glory, and only a glamorous face remains. According to Xu Xue's estimates, the assets of the elder Fu Linming are at most about $3 billion.

Of course, when personal wealth becomes a number, it makes little sense to compare personal wealth for superiority. It's about being more influential. He Hua is currently less influential in the circle of wealthy Americans than Fu Linming.

Jessica didn't know what Lu Jing was thinking, and smiled happily, "Thank you for your understanding, Lu." ”

Lu Jing shook his head and smoked slowly.

The eagle doesn't take the bared teeth of a cat or a dog for granted. However, he would like to have the opportunity to pat the cat and dog on the head.

Jessica Fulling's eyelashes were slightly raised, and looking at Lu Jing's silhouette, she remembered the first time she saw Lu Jing in the smoking area of the Langham Place Hotel on Fifth Avenue. The smell of cigarettes travels down the throat to the lungs, and the nicotine stimulates the nerves in the brain.

"Lu, can I trust you?" Jessica Fulin puffed out a puff of cigarette and said softly. Under the moonlight, the white skin was as smooth as jade, and the pretty face of a light mature woman had a sad expression.

Lu Jing looked at Jessica and nodded slightly.

"Thank you." Jessica Fulming said softly. She had a strong desire to talk tonight. I want to tell her what she has been thinking about for a long time. Because of her family, she didn't even dare to see a psychiatrist. (To be continued......)
