The Île de la Cité is located in the middle of the Seine. It is said that the original origins of Paris began in this small area, less than two hectares.

The famous Notre-Dame Cathedral is located on the Île de la Cité.

The dining place booked by Lu Zhichao is so large that it is divided into several blocks, which can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time, and is one of the favorite high-consumption places for celebrities from all walks of life in Paris.

Here, right next to the Place de la Fountain del Virgin, you can enjoy the huge cornices of Notre Dame.

When stepping into the golden splendor and looking up at the dining hall with a dome of five or six floors, Hou Yiying said to Chen Hongjuan, he had never seen such a luxurious dining place.

Xiong Jingdong secretly sneered in his heart, this Lu Zhichao really took great pains to curry favor in front of Chen Hongjuan, and did not hesitate to spend his money.

Chen Hongjuan couldn't help frowning and said, "It's just a dinner, it's really not necessary, to show off in such a high-end restaurant." ”

"Miss Hongjuan, don't mind," Lu Zhichao smiled and explained, "The reason why I want to invite you to this hotel is really not to show off luxury. It's a rare opportunity to get together and feel the vibrancy of the city of Paris. ”

"Da Ling Chen, this is your fault!" Cheney shouted for Lu Zhichao, "It's because of your light that we are lucky enough to come here and enjoy it." I think that as long as you are satisfied, even if you want to go to the royal palace in Paris for a banquet, Mr. Lu will not hesitate to spend a lot of money. ”

"Cheney, compared with Miss Hongjuan, you obviously lack the frugal virtues of our Chinese people." Lu Zhichao corrected Cheney's statement, "I appreciate the virtues of the Chinese people, and it is precisely because I have inherited the excellent tradition in this regard, so I am not willing to buy even a bouquet of flowers for Miss Hongjuan." ”

He said in a matter-of-fact manner: "I'm sorry, I implore you to try to be as merciful as possible when ordering food later, just enough to eat." This is not Zhichao's stinginess, but it is just right to be reminded by Miss Hongjuan, remember not to waste it at will. ”

Cheney shrugged her shoulders and smiled at Chen Hongjuan: "Daling Chen, Mr. Lu has never dared to disobey you. When you really become Mrs. Lu, he will definitely listen to every word and serve you like a queen. ”

Chen Hongjuan's face turned red and stopped Cheney: "Don't talk nonsense, otherwise everyone will be embarrassed, and they won't even have to be friends." ”

Lu Zhichao also blamed Cheney and said: "You always speak, just like that, regardless of the occasion." Can't you see that Miss Hongjuan is not a casual person who puts her feelings together. ”

Cheney shrugged her shoulders again, and said nonchalantly: "You Chinese people have always been so incredible, and what you often say on your lips is not the same thing as what you think in your heart. ”

Lu Zhichao ignored Cheni anymore and called a waiter to bring the menu.

Xiong Jiandong obviously saw that this Chenny had an exposed temperament, and he really didn't feel ashamed at all to be able to wipe the grease and powder for Lu Zhichao in front of Chen Hongjuan without concealment.

Obviously, although she spared no effort in deliberately matching Lu Zhichao and Chen Hongjuan, her tricks were far less than Lu Zhichao's, and she was as skilled as she wanted to capture the past.

Hou Yiying and Chen Hongjuan both noticed that in another area of the restaurant, there were many people of all kinds gathered, and some even performed songs and dances, so they called a foreman to inquire about what lively activities were being held.

The foreman replied that the Red Cross was conducting on-site charity fundraising for the victims of the Sahara disaster in Africa, and that there was also a cardinal of Notre Dame Cathedral who was invited to attend in person. He suggested that if they were interested, they might as well go and show a little love, and have the opportunity to see the cardinal's countenance.

Chen Hongjuan's eyes flickered because of this, and she couldn't help but whisper: "Holy Mother! ”

Hou Yiying asked Chen Hongjuan strangely: "When did you start believing in Christianity?" ”

Chen Hongjuan nodded slightly and said, "It was only after I came to Paris that I read the Bible and learned how to pray." ”

Her words made Xiong Jiandong's heart tense for a while, and he felt the pain of being ravaged. It is not because of the sadness, loneliness and emptiness of her life experience, Chen Hongjuan, who originally had a brilliant and unrestrained personality, why is she helplessly escaping everything in the past after coming to Paris.

"If you find a separate opportunity, you can confess to Chen Hongjuan what has happened in the past few months, including her rebirth in Jiuwei Mountain. I just don't know if she can withstand this cruel reality. ”

Xiong Jiandong's heart struggled violently.

Lu Zhichao said at this time that he was going to leave for a while, and then got up to leave.

It wasn't until the meal was served that several people waited for a while before they saw Lu Zhichao return to his seat with a happy face.

Just as everyone was about to start eating, they saw the foreman just now and led a large group of people to surround him.

An old man in the center wears a red square square hat and a red first-class dress. Behind him, followed by a woman holding a tray, identified as a staff member from the Red Cross.

Xiong Jiandong, Hou Yiying and others, not knowing what was going on, all stopped eating and immediately stood up.

The foreman asked, "Is it true that there is a young lady named Chen Hongjuan who is sitting here?" ”

Chen Hongjuan replied: "I am, what is the matter?" ”

The lady holding the tray said, "Cardinal, I have come to thank Miss Chen Hongjuan in person, and I will present you with a donation commemorative badge." ”

The cardinal stretched out his hand, lovingly stroked the top of Chen Hongjuan's head, and said, "Almighty Lord, bless this kind girl!" ”

"However, I haven't donated anything, so how can I accept this commemorative badge for no reason."

Chen Hongjuan said inexplicably.

The lady holding the tray said, "Just now, someone in the name of Miss Chen Hongjuan generously donated $50,000 to our event today. This is the largest individual donation we have received at the Red Cross in months. That's why the Cardinal will come in person and present you with a commemorative badge directly. ”

Chen Hongjuan glanced at Lu Zhichao and immediately understood.

Lu Zhichao looked calm, holding his mobile phone at this time, focusing on the scene recording.

"Son, please come to me."

The cardinal beckoned to Chen Hongjuan.

"Yes, Lord Bishop!"

Chen Hongjuan approached the cardinal.

The cardinal pinned a commemorative badge to Chen Hongjuan's chest.

The design of this donation commemorative badge connects the logo of the International Red Letter Society with the olive branch, which is very delicate and eye-catching.
