Tuesday, February 27.

Today, Manhattan is sunny and the sun is high, and a charity auction is about to be held on a lawn south of Central Park.

The auction was held outdoors with long tables around which guests could enjoy a small cold meal and non-alcoholic beverages.

Zhou Yu wore a dark gray formal suit tailored to his request by a tailor, with a slim fit with a stand-up collar and two Chinese dragon motifs sewn with gold thread on the chest and cuffs.

This kind of dress is between a tuxedo and a tuxedo, and after wearing it, it looks quite energetic, and the figure is quite tall.

Beside him, Judge Warren Foster was dressed in a formal tuxedo, a high top hat, and a black cane studded with ornaments in his hand, smiling.

"Bruce, I didn't expect you to be interested in a charity auction as well."

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "That's natural, Mr. Foster probably doesn't know yet, in fact, I grew up in an orphanage when I was a child, so when I heard that this charity auction was to make the children in the orphanage live a better life, I decided that I had to participate in this event." ”

Warren Foster was slightly stunned, half turned to look at Zhou Yu and said, "Oh, that's really unfortunate, but fortunately you survived and grew into a very capable person." ”

"I have won the prize Mr. Foster, these abilities of mine are not worth mentioning in front of these gentlemen around me, and those who can hold and participate in this charity auction are the ones who really have the ability to change this society."

Zhou Yu sighed with emotion, approached Judge Foster, and whispered: "Mr. Foster, this is the first time I have participated in such an auction, if there is anything that needs to be paid attention to, you still have to bring it with you, or if there are any big people who need to pay attention, you should also inform me in advance, so as not to say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing." ”

Judge Warren Foster nodded and said: "Yes, you are very thoughtful, the people who came to participate in the charity auction today are indeed either rich or noble, for example, the one over there who is accompanied by a noble lady is the leader of the Anmin Party, they occupy a lot of power in the House of Commons, and they are indeed big people who can promote social development."

"And the one over there that you need to pay attention to, Rudolph Sevis is a former supporter behind the scenes of Anliang Hall, Xiesheng Hall, and Yonglian Society, a member of the House of Commons, and a political opponent of Gilbert Moulton."

Zhou Yu heard the prestige, and as far as Judge Foster could see, he saw a bald man who was not tall, wearing a white swallow-tailed suit, hanging glasses, not much flesh on his face, and his cheekbones and forehead bones were more prominent.

Yes, although the other party is wearing a hat, Zhou Yu can still see that this person should have no hair, and the overall feeling is gloomy and introverted, although he is very short, he has a momentum that is not angry and arrogant.

Of course, Councillor Moulton on Zhou Yuxin's knot also participated in this charity auction, and he and this Rudolph Witherwis were very different, with a group of people around them, and occupying two diagonal corners of the venue, ignoring each other.

Suddenly, at this moment, Zhou Yu noticed a slight footstep behind him, someone was deliberately slowing down his steps to approach him, and the person also stretched out his hand on his shoulder.

Almost subconsciously, Zhou Yu's eyes became extremely sharp, and he slid half to the side, grabbing the arm on his shoulder and twisting it.

Only when he heard the sound of "ouch" did he react violently, this is not on the battlefield, this is not a fire, but a charity auction, there are so many big people in it, there should be no killers or anything like that, right?

He hurriedly let go of his hands, and his grim expression instantly turned into a bright smile.

"Hey~ Rosa, don't sneak up on me from behind, I'll subconsciously treat you as an enemy."

Yes, the moment he turned around and treated the other party's arm, Zhou Yu had already seen the female reporter wearing a beige long windbreaker and a wide-brimmed ruffled hat, Rosa Christine.

"Ouch~ Mr. Bruce, is this something a gentleman should do to a lady? It seems that the rumors about you are really true, you used to seem to be a combat hero. ”

Rosa, who was holding her wrist and being helped up by Zhou Yu, quickly forgot about the pain in her arm, and she got some news from her European counterparts that Zhou Yu not only participated in World War I, but also contributed a lot of money.

"That's all in the past, it's a time of peace, don't mention this, but you, I didn't expect to come to the charity auction, is it as a reporter? What about your camera? ”

Rosa patted her clothes and shrugged her shoulders in a very unladylike motion.

"I'm not a journalist today, I have a colleague reporting there, and I'm here today as someone's female companion to accompany him to a charity auction."

Zhou Yu was slightly surprised, and said: "I didn't expect our Pulitzer Prize-winning Miss Rosa to fall in love, but you must introduce me to which gentleman is fortunate to invite you as a female companion." ”

Rosa raised her slightly pointed chin and said with a smug expression: "Hehe~ Of course, Miss Ben is naturally beautiful and has many suitors, but it's not as you guess, I came with my father." ”

"Your dad?"

Zhou Yu was really surprised this time, he followed Rosa's line of sight and saw a tall and somewhat fat middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and a black suit outside.

The middle-aged man, accompanied by a beautiful lady, was talking to several other guests in a whisper.

As if sensing their gaze, the middle-aged man looked up at Rosa with a gentle and doting smile on his face.

Rosa waved her hand at her father, turned her head and introduced to Zhou Yu: "My father, McCarthy Christine, by the way, the newspaper I work for, the New York Observer, he is the largest shareholder. ”

Zhou Yu looked at Rosa with a sudden expression, and thought in his heart, no wonder you can still live until now, no wonder as long as the report you send back can always appear in a conspicuous position the next day, even the front page headline, it turns out that the director of the newspaper is his father, so the editor-in-chief doesn't change the way to coax you to be happy?

"I didn't expect that our hot-blooded Miss Rosa, who has a great sense of justice, and such a powerful father, I am a little envious when I see it."

"Don't be envious, Mr. Bruce, you are not bad-looking, and you are so young and capable, and if you attend more parties like this, you will be able to get to know more ladies and ladies of the upper class, and I am sure they will all be impressed by your humor and erudition.

"Look at it, for example, the Catelyn Otilette over there, you have to pay more attention to her, she is the brightest star beauty in the upper class party in New York, look at the burgundy big waves, dignified atmosphere, bright and not kitsch facial features, wow~ and that bumpy figure, are what I yearn for the most~"

Rosa gestured with her hand to the S-curve, then looked at her chest again, her expression becoming rather depressed.

Zhou Yu followed her guidance and looked at the other end of the lawn, where there was indeed a lady with a graceful figure, a bright and generous temperament, and every move seemed to exude a strange charm.

But Zhou Yu's attention only stayed on her for a moment, and was soon attracted by the other person next to this beauty.

That was the real target of his coming to the charity auction today, the future Mr. President, Franklin Roosevelt, who had finally appeared.
