Chapter 200: Gao Jingxuan's Unspeakable Secret
Thanks to the nine-legged dragon and *** (swiped, I can't see it...... The rewards of the three brothers, thanks to the monthly passes of the picky booksellers, and the students who subscribed gave a little more advice. yan()kuai
Since the wind has passed, the students said that they don't want to look at the campus, so it's good...... A large part of campus life was deleted, and the 163 students of Sky City said that they wanted a few girls...... Gao Jingxuan appeared.
Hua Xing told Lei that there is no problem with the lack of communication between major powers, Nord has risen, and it is time to show real technology.
The customer is God, you subscribe, so what you say, let's try to change. (Sky City 163 students, all booked!) I'm waiting for you. )
That's all for now.
Rolls-Royce drove in the dark night, looking at the brightly lit palace on the mountain, Gao Jingxuan suddenly had a fear, nervousness and uneasiness for the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Nord.
The palace was soon fully displayed in front of her, and just when Gao Jingxuan was hesitating to get out of the car, the car door was suddenly opened, and the respectful waiter signaled that she could get out of the car.
Taking a deep breath, Gao Jingxuan tried to make herself appear calmer, and the first person she saw when she got out of the car was Abner, an old butler in tuxedo with a sterco, serious face.
"Miss Gao Jingxuan, I am Abner, the housekeeper of the palace, please come with me."
Abner was not very polite, after saying this, he led the way directly, Gao Jingxuan was afraid that he would be rude, nodded to the few servants who greeted him in front of the door, and then followed closely.
The palace has received many people, but it is the first time to see such a polite one, so the servants are a little dazed when they look at each other, and some of them can't help but inquire about Gao Jingxuan's identity.
"Asian, are you a relative of Your Majesty's mother?"
"Probably not, she speaks in a local style, and she should have lived here for a few years."
After living for a few years, it is natural that he is not a relative of Joseph's mother, after all, they have never heard of this matter, not to mention that Joseph is not the kind of character who puts his relatives outside and ignores them.
"She's beautiful, she's just too thin. Not good. ”
The servants glanced at his five big and three rough cooks, and they all kept silent, and only continued to discuss after he left.
"I don't think she's a guest."
Joseph's guests were all distinguished guests, but the servants were clearly not referring to these. It's a person with a noble status, and such a person is not just rich.
"There are no nobles in the East, David."
"Why not, there are still monarchs in Japan and Thailand."
"She is of Taiwanese descent and a former friend of His Majesty. Let's all go and do things! ”
Zhu Yunsheng suddenly interjected to calm down the noise, Zhu Yunsheng's status in the palace was naturally on the high side, even the butler of Abner gave him three points of face.
"Zhu, is Taiwan ......?"
"That's right, it's the island of China."
"Uh......, that's right, it's Taidao in Huaxia, so she is really not a distinguished guest?"
"She's a friend of His Majesty, a very good friend."
……
Knock knock~
Joseph, who was reading a book, was awakened by Abner's knock on the door, and glanced at Abner, who had pushed the door in and had not yet spoken, and nodded to indicate that he knew.
Packing up his things, Joseph walked towards the hall. Under the light, the back of a wonderful man is admiring the oil painting on the wall, which is an oil painting of a man and four women playing.
"The Gods of the Forest and the Nymphs is a novel by the French Adolfo. William. Bougreau's 1873 work, but the painting is not of very formal origin. ”
“???”
Seeing Gao Jingxuan's puzzled face, Joseph shrugged and replied: "One hundred thousand euros, bought from a gang of international thieves, and now the one hanging in the art academy is a fake." ”
Gao Jingxuan is actually not very familiar with such oil paintings, and she is even more embarrassed to talk about such yankuai paintings in front of a person of the opposite sex, but it is a little strange that she is married and shows a touch of shame at this time.
Unaware of this, Joseph continued to recount: "Many people say that this is a work full of music and poetry. It is a masterpiece of romanticism "back to nature". In fact, the reason why I bought it back is very simple, several fairies are very beautiful, and the dark forest background and plump and fair body have a strong allure. ”
Allure ...... When the three words were spoken by Joseph, he couldn't help but glance at Gao Jingxuan, who was also plump and fair-skinned, and happened to collide with Gao Jingxuan, who was looking at him. The two were a little embarrassed for a while.
"Ahem, I forgot to say, Merry Christmas."
"You too, Merry Christmas."
"I haven't been in Nord recently, and I haven't used Chinese to communicate much, so I'm a little rusty after a long time."
That's true. Joseph felt that he had to exchange words with the Chinese for a long time, or else in ten or twenty years, he would probably have to speak in dry Western Chinese.
"No, I think you're right."
Shrugging his shoulders, Joseph did not continue the topic, but led the way towards the restaurant, after all, it was to invite people over to the banquet, and it was not appropriate to just stand here.
"This dress suits you perfectly, it's beautiful."
"Thank you!"
……
When they came to the restaurant, the two sat across from each other.
"I forgot to ask, why are you alone?"
In fact, Joseph guessed something, he knew very well the situation of Microsoft, busyness is common, especially these engineers, deputy chief engineers, they have put a lot of effort into Microsoft's monopoly.
Nord has a six-hour work system, and for example, such researchers are eight hours, not the cabinet can increase but they take the initiative to ask, of course, even so, many engineers and chief engineers regard the company as their home, and those programs and machines as their wives.
Xiumei frowned slightly, although she was unwilling to answer such a question, Gao Jingxuan still smiled reluctantly: "There is something in the company, and he has not been notified." ”
"I haven't seen you for a few years, and I feel like you're a lot unfamiliar."
"Yes, yes."
It seems to be an inquiry, but in fact it is not an inquiry but a disguised explanation, Joseph didn't say much, looked at some desserts served and said with a smile: "The desserts in many Chinese restaurants in Nord are not so authentic. ”
Gao Jingxuan was obviously very aware of this, and nodded very understandingly, not that they were not authentic, but the result of the different ingredients and deliberately doing that.
Traveling and tasting food is one thing, daily life is another, you can't let customers get used to your way of eating! Hence in the Duchy of Nord. With the exception of a few restaurants that cater exclusively to Chinese Americans, practices have changed a lot in other places, such as dumplings, which don't even exist, because Nord's Europeans and Americans don't use chopsticks at all.
"Authentic Chinese ingredients airlifted back. Suzhou-style moon cakes, Qingtuan, peach crisp, glutinous rice balls, you taste it, the taste is quite good. ”
Hearing this, Gao Jingxuan picked a few desserts and tasted them one by one, which was soft and smooth, and nodded a little excitedly. Seeing that Gao Jingxuan was satisfied, Joseph also felt very happy.
He has always regarded Gao Jingxuan as his friend, but this friend has not contacted him for two or three years, how can he not be sad?
"It's been okay for the past two years!"
"Well, it's not bad, the salary is very satisfied, the environment is very satisfied......"
"The only thing that is not satisfied is the busyness of the husband, right, you should understand the engineer, you don't have children?"
If it was better just in front, as soon as the child spoke, Gao Jingxuan's face quickly turned pale, as if she was hiding something. But soon she tried to return to normal, and Joseph naturally noticed this scene, but he didn't say much, after all, this is someone's yankuai.
"I forgot to congratulate you, Ms. Nord Royal Entertainment Daily."
"It's an associate editor, and it's also an associate editor of a sub-newspaper."
The small success in her career diluted Gao Jingxuan's uneasiness, and she hurriedly waved her hand to correct her identity.
"The associate editor is just the beginning, you're still young this year, maybe you'll be the editor-in-chief of Entertainment Daily again in two years, and I hope to see you at the shareholder meeting."
Joseph owns 30 percent of the shares of Royal Media. Of course, Gao Jingxuan also understood that this was just a joke, not to mention that Joseph had never attended a shareholder meeting, even if he did. Then I'm afraid I won't be able to see her, because even the president of the newspaper is not qualified, let alone the deputy editor-in-chief of the small newspaper.
One dish after another was served, and two bottles of red wine from the Royal Winery were also placed on the table, looking at such a scene, Gao Jingxuan suddenly had a warm feeling, which was very strange and a little incredible.
"What are your classmates doing? I remember it as if it was called ...... Called......"
"Li Wenna and Zhang Yujia are married, and even Zhang Yujia's son is one and a half years old, a very cute little guy."
Speaking of Zhang Yujia's son, Gao Jingxuan's eyes showed tenderness and envy, although she hid it deeply, Joseph still saw that trace of expectation.
Seeing this scene, Joseph had some guesses in his heart, and said with a hesitation: "Although the salary of the Royal Academy of Sciences is lower, it is better than the environment of Microsoft, and he should still like his previous job!" ”
Gao's husband was a member of the Royal Academy of Sciences, and then Microsoft was formed and was spun off into the company. Of course, none of this mattered, it was just Joseph's temptation.
Without answering, Joseph was a little embarrassed, but he was not angry, because he knew that Gao Jingxuan had seen through his temptation, so Joseph did not dare to continue the topic, and Gao Jingxuan of the province was dissatisfied and left directly.
This is Joseph's mistake, Gao Jingxuan is not the little girl a few years ago, and he is not the grand duke with a population of only a few thousand or more thousand.
The original Gao Jingxuan was only slightly surprised even if she knew Joseph's identity, but now...... What she has is fear, fear of power, of life and death.
Gao Jingxuan drank a lot of wine during this meal, and she was not worried about Joseph. The reason is simple, if Joseph wants to do something, then she is powerless to refuse and resist even if she is sober.
Joseph was glad that he had not drunk, otherwise he could not have assured that even in the palace with so many servants, he would have done something on impulse.
Asked Abner to take her to the guest room, Joseph asked the guards to investigate some things about Gao Jingxuan and her husband, although he had just confided something after drinking, but he still needed to know a little about the specific situation before he could sort it out. However, it is certain that his friend Gao Jingxuan was not bullied, nor was he dissatisfied because he was left out, and the real reason may be in some functions of her husband.
Some topics may not be convenient for outsiders to know, but Joseph feels that he has a reason to help Gao Jingxuan, and if he really has a problem, then he can arrange for him to go to the Nord Royal Hospital for treatment. (To be continued.) )
