Chapter 308: The Pain of Raging (2)
"Congratulations to Miss Chen Hongjuan, you have received the honor you deserve for your kindness!"
The cardinal took the lead in applauding.
"Confess to the Lord, and forgive me!" Chen Hongjuan said worriedly, "I deserve this honor." ”
"Child, if you can pray like this, it means that you are a believer in the Lord!" The cardinal rejoiced, "O all-present Lord, you will be able to perceive that you have a good and holy heart!" ”
"Now, in my capacity as Cardinal of Notre-Dame de Paris, I declare that the name of Miss Chen Hongjuan will forever be recorded in the Charity Register of the Hospital. If Miss Chen Hongjuan's future wedding is intentionally held in a church in the Notre-Dame Cathedral area, I am willing to go there to express my blessings in person. ”
The cardinal's promise, often referred to as an oracle, has always been a symbol of grandeur and majesty.
According to the traditional Christian etiquette, Chen Hongjuan must express her supreme reverence to the cardinal at this time.
She immediately knelt down, silently held up the cardinal's hands, and kissed them reverently several times in succession.
As soon as the cardinal's group left, Cheney immediately poked her head out of Chen Hongjuan's chest, showing her extreme envy for the badge.
"Da Ling Chen, this badge, but Mr. Lu spent 50,000 US dollars to exchange it, and it is just right to wear your cheongsam." Cheney said, "I'm afraid you won't be willing to take it off from now on." ”
Lu Zhichao said disapprenously: "Cheney, you are wrong again. Because, as the Bishop said, no amount of money donated is enough to express the kindness and holiness of Miss Hongjuan. ”
He showed the video he had just taken to Chen Hongjuan to watch, and said happily: "The key thing is that this badge, which was personally awarded to Miss Hongjuan by the Cardinal of Notre Dame de Paris, is the real reason why it is worth cherishing forever." ”
Lu Zhichao said to Xiong Jiandong and Hou Yiying again: "Presumably the two of you must also agree with these views of mine. ”
"I don't think so!"
Xiong Jiandong replied with a gloomy expression.
"What do you mean by that, Mr. Adong?"
Lu Zhichao looked surprised.
"In the video shot by Mr. Lu, it should be clearly recorded that Hongjuan has just done to the bishop." Xiong Jiandong said, "She has made it very clear, and she deserves this honor!" ”
Lu Zhichao was stunned for a moment, and asked Chen Hongjuan very uncomfortably: "Do you really, that's what you think?" ”
Chen Hongjuan lowered her head and did not answer.
"Mr. Lu's words, is it a cruel question, it really makes Hongjuan difficult to speak." Xiong Jiandong sneered, "Because in front of the Lord, how can she lie at will." ”
"I'm sorry, Miss Hongjuan, Mr. Adong is right, I shouldn't have asked you that!"
Lu Zhichao apologized to Chen Hongjuan.
But what made him feel very uncomfortable was that Xiong Jiandong's expression and every word he said not only made it difficult to distinguish the good and evil intentions, but also embarrassed him as if he had been slapped in the face in public.
Hou Yiying clearly saw that Xiong Jiandong was actually deliberately provoking Lu Zhichao, who had just spent a lot of money on his wishful thinking, mixed with internal humiliation.
"The food is cold, so don't talk about it in a bad mood." She said happily, "Mr. Lu has provided us with such a noble dining environment, so don't waste this food!" ”
Cheni complained to Chen Hongjuan: "Da Ling Chen, you have greatly hit Mr. Lu's wish today. If I knew that this was the end, I might as well have agreed to Mr. Lu and asked him to save the $50,000 as a travel expense to sponsor our inspection of Chinese national costumes. ”
"Chenie don't worry," Lu Zhichao seemed to have new momentum, and smiled happily, "I still keep my previous promise, for the two of you, if you really want to go to Huaguo Yunnan, I will bear all the expenses." And there's a place called Tengchong, and I've arranged a guide for you in advance. ”
"Hongjuan, do you have any plans to go back to Huaguo, when will it be?"
Hou Yiying asked.
"Yes." Chen Hongjuan replied, "I have a research project that draws on the costumes of ethnic minorities in China to carry out diversified design, and Cheney is also very interested in it. Tengchong, on the border of Yunnan, is said to be home to dozens of different ethnic groups. As for the exact duration of your trip, the initial plan is for late May. ”
Yunnan Tengchong?
Xiong Jiandong's heart suddenly became heavy, and he immediately shook in front of him, Qin Xinru looked like he was sitting in a wheelchair.
Before, when Xiong Jiandong heard that the cardinal of Notre Dame Cathedral had linked Chen Hongjuan to a church wedding, he was already deeply stung.
Because Xiong Jiandong can't forget that it was half a year ago that Qin Xinru sat in a wheelchair pushed by him and held a wedding in the church with an orthopedic surgeon named Ma Jiyuan.
Qin Xinru then followed Ma Jiyuan to his hometown in Tengchong, Yunnan, and has not heard from him so far.
Cheney said to Hou Yiying excitedly: "Mr. Lu not only promised to bear all the expenses of going to China for me and Da Ling Chen, but also willing to hold an exhibition in New York for our research results." ”
She glanced at Xiong Jiandong, and then joked to Hou Yiying, "Ying, I have more expectations now when I go to your Huaguo to investigate, I just want to be lucky enough to dig up a Chinese man who can be completely comparable to your Dong." ”
Hou Yiying couldn't help but be in a trance, she couldn't imagine that Chenie, a girl from the United States, had repeatedly expressed surprising favor to Xiong Jiandong, could he really be so perfect?
But one thing is undeniable.
This is to compare Lu Zhichao with Xiong Jiandong, the former has a good family background, strong economic strength, and has also joined the Mi nationality, and from the perspective of personal image, it can be regarded as outstanding in appearance and not low in wisdom, but today's birth made it easy for the latter to slap him in the face mercilessly, and he had a deep sense of frustration.
After eating, Lu Zhichao was still unsatisfied, and suggested that everyone go on a cruise to enjoy the night view on both sides of the Seine.
Obviously, he is unwilling to let go of the rare opportunity to continue to get together with Chen Hongjuan.
However, Chen Hongjuan was not interested in this, and said that tomorrow she planned to do her best as a landlord and accompany Hou Yiying and Xiong Jiandong to go to the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower in Paris to go around, so it is better to rest early tonight.
Hou Yiying hit it off and immediately agreed.
Lu Zhichao was helpless, so he had to go to the service desk to arrange a taxi.
As soon as Lu Zhichao walked away, Xiong Jiandong immediately asked Chen Hongjuan in Mandarin unceremoniously: "How can you still wear this badge on your chest, is it to be preserved?" ”
"Is there something wrong?"
Chen Hongjuan asked rhetorically.
