Chapter 1328: Anya's Suitor (2)
"I'm shopping, and the Museum of Modern Art is exhibiting Gauguin's 'When Will You Get Married' today, which was previously bought by a private collector in Switzerland and rarely had the opportunity to see it.
Miss Lavinha Borromeo and Mr. Giovanni Borromeo also want to go, Miss Borromeo ordered an oil painting from my mother some time ago, you know the family, right? It'......"
Han Xuan heard Anya call Giovanni's full name, and added the title of "sir", his mood relaxed slightly, listening to her tone, it should be okay, and it didn't seem close.
Interrupted Anya and said, "I know, it's already been published in the newspaper. β
"Newspapers? What newspapers? β
"It's nothing, I'm going to New York today, the company is going to hold an annual meeting tomorrow night, you come with me?"
"Tomorrow night...... But Miss Borromeo invited me to his brother's ball of passage, and promised her that my mother would go too. β
Anya's voice sounded a little tangled, she attached great importance to verbal promises and the like, and felt that what she promised should be done, and then said: "I may not be able to go, you should have told me about it earlier." β
"Didn't he already have a coming-of-age ball?" Han Xuan was unhappy with Giovanni's frequent meetings with Anya, and Gabriel in front of him heard that his tone was wrong, so he immediately raised his arm and pressed down from his chest, signaling calmness.
Anya didn't feel it and continued: "Yes, it's European, this time in the United States. β
"Okay, I know, I'll leave later, and I'll call you when we get to New York."
"Remember to bring the fat ding, I helped it prepare snacks to eat, bye-bye~"
Hung up the phone, the room did not speak, just now the phone was on speakerphone, and they all heard the conversation.
Jason broke the silence and said, "That sister and brother came from Europe to order oil paintings from Lady Cecilia?"
To put it mildly, her fame is not worth it, and the Borromeo family can easily buy anyone's paintings, and I think it must have been because of Miss Dolores that she came here. β
Gabriel nodded in agreement, looked at Han Xuan and said, "That's right, I think so too, this guy's routine is too deep."
There must be no way to win Miss Dolores's favor, so she started with her mother, and took her sister with her, relying on women to dispel their defenses.
Both mother and daughter belong to the kind of people who are not easy to get close to, and they can only be approached by starting with oil paintings, so that they will become familiar with each other over time.
I've never heard of anyone holding two coming-of-age balls, especially men, and this dance party is very unreasonable, it should be the young ladies of the family who come to hold the ball to socialize.
Little boss, what if he invited Miss Dolores to dance at the ball?
Women like that kind of solemn and romantic occasions, and the media will absolutely quarrel about it, and maybe even anger you and ruin your relationship with Anya, that little guy named Giovanni is not simple......"
These three or five thick bodyguards suddenly turned into wise men, and used the most malicious guesses to consider the deep meaning of the sister and brother's approach, if all this was based on the premise that Giovanni wanted to gain Anya's favor, it would sound very reasonable.
Han Xuan picked up the cup and drank saliva, and said in his mouth: "I'm still alive, how can I easily let him get close to Dolores?"
This report must have made me a joke, and tomorrow night we will be a villain and go to the prom, and she will definitely choose to dance with me, and this confidence is still there. β
"That's right!
You have to let that little aristocrat know that this is America, our territory.
It's just an Italian count's family, it seems that the warning given to Giovanni by his family is not enough, and if you dare to worry about your woman, the small boss will start from his family business and stone him to death with money. β
Owen yelled loudly.
Han Xuan despised his nouveau riche words, he could really do it, but he didn't have the grace to say it, thinking that if Giovanni didn't repent, he would check his family's property......
Leaving from Long Beach and heading to downtown Los Angeles, Han Xuan was really ready to listen to their opinions and change his look.
Arriving at a high-end beauty salon frequented by celebrities on Rodeo Drive, before he could speak, the bodyguards pulled the barber aside and muttered something to him.
Then, the barber walked over and looked Han Xuan's face left and right, as if thinking about what kind of hairstyle should be trimmed.
"What did they just tell you?" Han Xuan was very suspicious of the aesthetics of those people, and was afraid that his hair would be ruined by them.
The barber, who was a little sissy with black nail polish on her hands, smiled when she heard this, and said, "Don't worry about your rival."
Leave it to me, it will definitely make you so handsome that women go crazy when they see it. β
Han Xuan's face suddenly darkened, and he turned his head and glared at the smiling guys with a fierce gaze, scolding how to tell others everything, and he was embarrassed......
***************************
After Anya went to visit the Museum of Modern Art in the United States, she was going to find a place to wait for Han Xuan's arrival, Gauguin, Van Gogh and CΓ©zanne, together with the three giants of Post-Impressionism, she was quite satisfied with today's Gauguin special exhibition.
Lavigna, the second lady of the Borromeo family, asked her to accompany her to Fifth Avenue to buy clothes, Anya's character will not refuse others strongly, and she is not very interested in shopping, but in the end she went with her.
Giovanni has a good personality and good cultivation, there are few fools in the big family, and his personal ability is very good, otherwise he would not be rated as one of the young European nobles, and he is often mentioned in the newspapers.
During this time, Giovanni was very happy, he "opened meat" when he was fourteen years old, he was very popular at school, and he was always surrounded by women.
In their eyes, this is not called floweriness, Italian men are like this, they regard feelings and sex as two different things, and take it for granted.
originally thought that in this life, he would obey the arrangement of the elders in the family and find a rich daughter or a princess of the royal family of a certain country to marry, and he was ready to accept his fate, but since the last time he saw Anya's photo, he has never forgotten this girl.
The noble son who doesn't know what love is, fell in love because of a photo, and after putting the bought photo at home, he often stared at it, and finally decided to go to the UK to find her.
Knowing Anya's age, he was a little surprised, in his opinion, this is not a problem, you can be friends first, and the rest will be talked about in a few years, as for Han Xuan, he is just a powerful competitor, Giovanni does not feel that he is much worse than him, but he has to admit that Han Xuan's achievements are indeed extraordinary.
In his heart, he thinks that he is even better, because Han Xuan is Chinese, and Western society is prejudiced against Chinese, and the whole social atmosphere is like this, so it is not surprising that he has such an idea.
The Borromeo family has been entrenched in Europe for hundreds of years, and has the confidence of pride, and when evaluating the power of the family, it is not only about money, but also about other invisible strengths, the Borromeo family has seen countless powerful families, such as Bonaparte, such as Rothschild, as the years go by, they gradually disappear and decline, and Borromeo is still strong, and will continue to be strong, which is why he is proud.
Designing a few coincidences and meeting Anya, Giovanni found that she didn't care about the money and status that others liked, and after telling her her identity, she didn't show any special meaning to herself, even if she spoke, she was just very polite.
Far from making Giovanni flinch, he liked Anya even more, and in his opinion this kind of character was worthy of his liking, and those women who loved vanity were vulgar.
keenly aware that it is not easy to approach, so he invited the second sister who usually dotes on him the most to help, discussed and came up with a way to buy paintings, approached Anya from her mother, and approached with the purpose of being a friend, and sure enough, it achieved good results, at least she was not as indifferent as before.
The biggest headache for Giovanni is that Anya often mentions Han Xuan, and from time to time she talks about him, trying to learn that the two are not in a relationship, and they are trying to get her attention recently, such as this coming-of-age ball.
The ball had been scheduled for a long time, and his father had recently wanted to enter the American market to get some business partners, and he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to help his son choose a suitable wife.
Out of rebellion, Giovanni invited Anya over to make his stand by inviting her to do her first dance......
That's about it.
It is normal for excellent women in the West to be contested by many people, and he doesn't know that he has been worried about Han Xuan, who is conservative and can't afford to suffer......
I went to the Museum of Modern Art in the morning, and stayed in it for more than five hours, and I didn't look at a painting for more than fifteen minutes, which can only be called a hurried browsing.
Giovanni was okay and was able to calm down and admire, but his sister couldn't stand it, and the extravagant and bustling Fifth Avenue was her favorite place.
took Anya to Chanel and Hermes, and when she asked her about anything, she shook her head and said she wouldn't buy it, and in the end, Lavinia simply bought it herself.
Anya doesn't care about luxury goods, jewelry, or anything, they all say that the poor raise children and rich daughters, and although Lady Cecilia doesn't care much about her daughter, she does a good job in this regard.
Since her mother had money, Anya has never lacked pocket money, and recently she has been able to make money herself, so she has even more money.
Giovanni bought a shirt to wear tomorrow night at LV, and when she came out, Anya pointed to the ZARA store next to her and asked them, "Can you go in with me?"
I want to buy two coats, it's a bit cold, and last year's clothes had short sleeves. β
Miss Lavinia was speechless, thinking that the clothes would last for two years? I didn't want to help her buy clothes just now, but now I actually want to go to ZARA, and tell her: "Everyone knows that this brand is a joke, and every time other brands release a new model, it is plagiarized by it, which is shameless." β
Anya didn't like the tone of her voice very much, so she retorted: "This is Han Xuanjia's company, I usually buy it here, and other people like it too."
Han Xuan told me that Amancio Ortega is helping ordinary people realize their dream of wearing famous brands, and will pay infringement fees, and does not owe anything to those companies.
I heard Han Xuan say that his grandmother's Hoops Group was about to go public, and he told me that the company would exceed $300 billion in the future. β
Well, Anya also knew that in front of outsiders, she helped Han Xuan save face.
When Lavinia heard the figure of 300 billion US dollars, she was almost choked to death by her own breath, more money is the last word, and she couldn't refute it, and sneered: "How is this possible, it's just selling clothes......
