Chapter 676: Lucky Day
In the famous "Jean Georges" restaurant on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York, Lu Li and Jamie Dimon are sitting at a table near the corner, eating expensive French meals and talking to each other in a low voice. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
You can tell from the smiles on their faces that they are in a good mood and have not been affected by the unpleasant atmosphere before.
As for the content of the conversation, except for the two parties, outsiders do not know at all.
Lawyer Wilson, who was sitting at another table not far away, was very relaxed and cut the bloodshot steak into small pieces and put it in his mouth, slowly savoring the taste.
When he had finished eating a whole steak, he picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, and asked the young girl sitting across from him with a smile, "Miss Sarah, why don't you order something to eat?"
You must know that this is a three-Michelin-starred restaurant, and it is known as the best French restaurant in the whole of New York, and ordinary people who want to come here for a meal need to make a reservation at least a month in advance.
But thanks to Mr. Tojamie, we have saved you a long wait, and I assure you that the chefs here will definitely delight your taste buds. ”
"Uh...... Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not very hungry right now. Zhang Ling glanced down at the exaggerated prices on the menu, and hurriedly shook her head and refused.
She didn't want to test if the pitiful change in her pocket was enough for a meal here.
Wilson was obviously aware of the other party's predicament, and chuckled and teased, "Dear Miss Sarah, I have a little advice for you, that is, don't look at the menu, and order whatever you want." Do you think that Mr. Lu and Mr. Jamie will let us settle the bill? No, they will take our accounts with them when they settle the bill. ”
"Really...... Really?" Zhang Ling blinked uncertainly.
Although she had to choose to sell her hue for money in order to complete her studies, she had not yet degenerated to the point of taking advantage of others everywhere.
"Of course, if they don't settle the bill by the wait, I'll ask for this meal. Wilson replied without thinking.
"Okay, then I'll also order a steak and vegetable salad.
After struggling for a few seconds between a rumbling stomach and a ridiculous self-esteem, Zhang Ling finally chose the latter.
After all, from the moment she stepped into the headquarters of JPMorgan Chase Bank, her spirit has been in a state of tension, and she left too quickly at noon and didn't eat lunch, and she was about to collapse from hunger.
What's more, "Jean Georges" is one of the top restaurants in New York, and people with a little vanity are eager to sit here one day and have a meal and experience what life is like for the rich.
"Wait! Give this lady another foie gras, caviar, and creamy truffle soup. Remember, don't put too many condiments in the truffle soup, just keep it the original flavor. "Wilson is quite professional.
As you can tell from the additional requirements of the à la carte, it is not the first time he has come to this place to eat.
"Understood, sir. It has to be said that you are definitely a true gourmand when it comes to truffle soup. The handsome waiter politely complimented, turned around and disappeared into the back kitchen with the menu.
In a short time, the delicious flavor with an enticing aroma is served on the table.
Wilson took the bottle and poured the young girl half a glass of wine, then made a gesture of please: "Enjoy, Miss Sarah, I promise you'll love them when you eat them." ”
"I love them, but they don't necessarily love me......" Zhang Ling shrugged her shoulders self-deprecatingly, cut off a small piece of foie gras and put it in her mouth.
Moment!
The rich aroma and delicate meat fill the mouth!
After chewing for more than ten seconds, she reluctantly swallowed it, and sighed with a wry smile: "Well, I have to admit that it does not taste like the foie gras I have eaten in ordinary French restaurants before, but its price is too outrageous to be affordable at my income level." ”
"Can't afford it? Hehe, not being able to afford it now doesn't mean it won't be able to afford it later. I take the liberty of asking, what is your relationship with Mr. Lu?" Wilson said quietly and tentatively.
After several hours of covert observation, he could already determine that the young girl sitting opposite him was definitely not a rich daughter, nor was she a professional, but an out-and-out rookie.
But the problem is that this rookie was actually taken by Lu Li's side, and even participated in the equity exchange with JPMorgan Chase Bank, even the most idiotic person will start to think about something.
After eating the whole foie gras in one go, she quickly replied: "It doesn't matter, to be exact, we only met last night, he invited me to be his personal assistant, and then I agreed, it's as simple as that." Until noon today, I didn't even know what he did. ”
"Wow! Yesterday must have been your lucky day!, we should have a toast to it!" Wilson proposed, raising his glass.
"Thanks, I also think it's a little unreal, and my mind is still a little trance-like. Zhang Ling hurriedly put down the knife and fork, and touched the cup with the other party with a smile.
With the sound of glass clashing, the two each took a sip of a bottle of red liquid worth $1,200 each.
Savoring the slight sourness of the wine on the tip of his tongue, Wilson immediately asked, "So, you and Mr. Lu are neither lovers, nor relatives or friends, you didn't even know each other before, and then the first time we met, he involved you in multibillion-dollar business negotiations?"
I don't know if it's because of the alcohol, or if the foie gras just now was too delicious, which produced some kind of mental pleasure, in short, a trace of blush appeared on Zhang Ling's face, and she nodded with a smirk.
"yes, it's dramatic, isn't it?
But I think he was willing to hire me half because of my race and skin color, and half out of sympathy or something.
After all, no matter how stupid I am, I understand that the scenes of billionaires falling in love with poor girls in Hollywood movies are all deceptive.
In the real world, the billionaire should take a fancy to the poor girl's appearance, and then use his wealth and status to seduce the other party, and when he has had enough of it, he kicks it away and continues to look for the next prey. ”
"Hehe, it's best if you think so.
As far as I know, Mr. Lu is not the kind of playboy who is ruthless.
Although I can't figure out why he hired you yet, I can assure you that it certainly has nothing to do with love and sex.
Finally, I would like to give you a piece of advice, take advantage of the opportunity, especially when it comes to loyalty, and never have any flaws.
Mr. Lu seems to value loyalty more than ability, and all his subordinates who are loyal to him have finally obtained unexpected gains. ”
After saying this, Wilson stopped talking and silently ate the food on his plate......
