Tsundere and cowardly
Chapter 69: The Heart is Joyful
When the old man said his surname Cheng, the smile on Gu Jiujiu's face faded.She looked at his old, slack, wrinkled face, as if realizing something.Anxious to confirm the same. "You mean, your surname is Cheng? The Cheng of that project?"
The old man nodded, still smiling kindly. "What's the matter, little girl, is there a problem?"
If he could be Miss Cheng's grandfather, from this point of view alone, of course there is no problem.It is very likely that Gu Jiujiu has already started to express himself to the old man.
When the old man said his surname Cheng, the first reaction in Gu Jiujiu's mind was not this.Instead, she thought of Cheng Yuan's back when the old man fainted on the lawn and turned away.
At that time, Gu Jiujiu was only focused on saving people, and didn't pay much attention.
She is far away from the process.It was the man who Miss Cheng was standing in the safe passage at the end of the school competition, Gu Jiujiu remembered him.Also clearly remember his name, Cheng Yuan.
For Miss Cheng's unknown or to be precise, things that she doesn't want her to see.Gu Jiujiu obediently pretended to turn a blind eye.
Gu Jiujiu is not stupid.for dangerous things.Anyone has a keen intuition that comes from instinct.
Ms. Cheng may not be the kind of noble noble lady she showed in front of Gu Jiujiu, a woman of the new era with elite qualities.Or rather, she wasn't exactly.
Maybe everyone has an unknown dark side.The more prominent a person is, the more dangerous he may be.
A Cheng Yuan brought up a question that Gu Jiujiu had been avoiding and was unwilling to delve into.
If it's just the infighting among wealthy families, it has nothing to do with her.
But if Miss Cheng is not who she knows, Gu Jiujiu even begins to doubt whether he can still be firm in his love for her.
The mistake of blinding Mount Tai with one leaf is too common. Love has this ability to blind people's eyes.
"It's okay. Grandpa Cheng, your surname reminds me of a friend of mine whose surname is also Cheng." Gu Jiujiu was always very patient and gentle with the elderly.
There is always nothing wrong with doing something before her thoughts are cleared up.That is to leave a good impression on Grandpa Cheng.
"Looking at your age, you should still be in school, right? Are you studying here, and are your parents by your side?" Mr. Cheng may be at this age, and none of his grandchildren are around.It's rare to meet such a cute little girl, and I naturally get closer to her heart.
Gu Jiujiu's appearance has always been able to give her extra points. She belongs to the kind of good girl in the traditional sense that the elders like. She looks pure and well-bred.It's decent to behave.
Gu Jiujiu shook his head, "No, I'm a university student in China, and I came here today to see my brother."
"Oh, which university does the little girl study in?"
Gu Jiujiu smiled, "It's at Z University."
This time even Gu Jiujiu didn't expect, the old man suddenly laughed. "You may not believe it, but I also graduated from Z University."
Gu Jiujiu looked at him in surprise, in their era, whether they could eat was considered a problem.There are still people who can study and go to college.
Gu Jiujiu always felt that she was born in a family of intellectuals. Her parents were already highly educated. One was a professor abroad and the other was a diplomat.But she didn't dare to say that her ancestors were educated.After all, the situation of that era was there.
Unexpectedly, this grandpa Cheng graduated from university.And he is also a senior of his own alumni.
Gu Jiujiu knew that her chance had come, and at this moment she was extremely grateful for the history of Z University's [-]-year founding in the first week of school.Before now, it seems that it is not useless. For example, getting closer to a talented alumnus is a very good topic.
After chatting like this, from the beginning to the end, Mr. Cheng was amused by Gu Jiujiu's sycophant. When Gu Jiujiu was talking, he kept paying attention to Mr. Cheng's expression.She is very good at judging whether other people are interested in this topic by their micro expressions.
At the same time, Gu Jiujiu also sincerely likes this Grandpa Cheng.
When the two of them were chatting, Gu Jiujiu could clearly feel that the old man was obviously a cultural person, he spoke with that kind of charm, and he still had sharp insights on some issues.And he can listen to the opinions of the younger generation, nodding to Gu Jiujiu from time to time.Let her be flattered.Occasionally he can even say a few popular online words.
The two started talking about the history of the establishment of the school, talking about the differences between the decades-old Z University and the current one, where the library has been changed, and where the bad habits and disadvantages still exist.Even the old man, who is a book shelf in the library, remembers exactly what kind of books.
Gu Jiujiu said he wanted to test him, so he asked him which category English reference books belonged to.Unexpectedly, the old man not only stated the categories they belonged to, but also reported which rows and columns they were in.
Only then did Gu Jiujiu realize that over the past few decades, the classification arrangement of the library of Z University has never changed.
Later, when we talked about food and Internet culture, the old man also knows a lot about it.This kind of well-informed and knowledgeable demeanor is really admirable.
When he finally left, Gu Jiujiu still reluctantly bid farewell to the old man.He said that he must be invited back to University Z to have a look when he has time.
"Grandpa Cheng, you need to take care of your health quickly. When you return to your country, you have time to go back to school."
Old Master Cheng looked at Gu Jiujiu, feeling relieved and sad at the same time.He is also a person who has lived for decades, most of his life has passed, and there are only a few days when one foot is put in the coffin, and his grandchildren are not cared by a strange little girl.
After Gu Jiujiu came out of the ward, she leaned her back against the wall and did not choose to make a phone call or turn on a video screen that might expose her coordinates. She sent a text message to Miss Cheng.Deliberately blurred vision.
Today I met an old man in the hospital, and his surname also happened to be Cheng.With your last name.
Ms. Cheng replied quickly: Oh, what a coincidence.
Gu Jiujiu looked at the SMS reply on the phone, and her usually light and flexible fingers trembled slightly, and her fingertips paused on the screen for a moment.
She typed out this sentence: Miss Cheng, do you have a grandfather?
Ms. Cheng replied: Yes, why do you ask this suddenly.
See this "bar".Gu Jiujiu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.One modal particle is enough to explain many problems.
Gu Jiujiu: If your grandfather was sick, would you go to the hospital to see him and take care of him?
Miss Cheng: See if he can.It shouldn't be possible to take care of him.I don't have time and energy to take care of one person, everyone has their own life.
Seeing Miss Cheng's answer, Gu Jiujiu breathed a sigh of relief.Sure enough, she is not the kind of cold-blooded and heartless person.
She asked: Then do you often visit him?
Ms. Cheng's answer was brief: If his illness is serious enough and he left me with enough inheritance, I will consider it as appropriate.
Gu Jiujiu's fingers froze: Hahaha, Miss Cheng, you really know how to joke.
The reply given by Ms. Cheng was: I never joke.
Gu Jiujiu couldn't even type out a single word, how could she admit it.In fact, in some respects, the Miss Cheng she was so proud of was no different from Qin Yizhi or that Cheng Yuan.
And the other side.The mobile phone on the coffee table next to Miss Cheng never received Gu Jiujiu's text message again, and it was time to drink a cup of coffee.What she waited for was the notice posted on the Cheng family's eyeliner: Mr. Cheng fainted again.
Ms. Cheng looked through the chat records with Gu Jiujiu. If it was a coincidence, then it can only be said that God is helping her.
If Gu Jiujiu really met Mr. Cheng.And she herself has realized that he is Miss Cheng's grandfather.Then Miss Cheng is confident, Gu Jiujiu should know what to do.Just like the obvious hint in the text message.
If this is the case, it will indeed save her a lot of effort.
"What's the matter with his fainting this time? I just saw his condition report a few days ago. It shouldn't be so fast."
"It should be Cheng Yuan's hands and feet. He has this suspicion. Someone said that during the period when Mr. Cheng fainted, he was seen driving away in a hurry."
"Well, I see."
Cheng Rong's mother is Lady Christ, and she had a failed marriage with Cheng Rong's father.But she has a wonderful daughter.
Even with the formation of a new family, Cheng Rong is obviously able to handle family relationships well.
After her mother remarried, she offered to go to school to live in, because of avoiding unnecessary conflicts.
Any conflict with her stepfather or his family is unnecessary in her opinion.
It doesn't matter who wins or loses.Her monthly pocket money was not a pound more, and her room was not an inch bigger.It would only give her mother a headache, and it wouldn't do her any good.
Cheng Rong's brain is born, she can calmly analyze the situation in any situation, which means she will never do stupid things.Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is her natural ability, and she is so smart that she is cold-blooded.
After moving out, she received a considerable amount of living expenses every month.Her mother feels guilty about her, but at the same time lives more comfortably with her stepfather.
This is a win-win option.Both are good for each other.
So since junior high school, she moved out of the house.Live in a dormitory at a private school.
And for the dormitory life, 12-year-old Cheng Rong made it clear that he was very satisfied.She never expressed any homesickness or discomfort at school to her Duchess mother.
Cheng Rong's 12-year-old is not without any problems, she is just used to solving them by herself.
Especially this kind of emotion that makes people weak and worthless, similar to homesickness, not being able to adjust and so on.In the values of survival of the fittest formed in her mind, there is no need for existence.
From her junior high school winter and summer vacations, she occasionally went home for a few weeks, and then started to work as a part-time model at the age of 16 in high school, and she didn't even have time to go home during the holidays.Over the years, the Countess has always felt that her daughter is so good that she can rest assured.
This feeling cannot be said to be wrong.At least that's how the Countess feels to this day.It might change after today.
Probably every mother subconsciously thinks she is a good mother.She didn't realize that Cheng Rong didn't let her worry, but didn't need her to worry at all.
"How is your life in China?"
Cheng Rong said while sitting on the vintage-trimmed flower and rattan pattern sofa while checking his mailbox. "good."
"Who were you texting with just now? I saw you were smiling happily?" the Duchess asked.
"a friend."
"It is indeed time for you to make some friends at your age. The suitors I follow behind you at your age can already form a football team." Lady Christel smiled, and her words seemed meaningful. refer to.
Cheng Rong's fingers flicking through the mail paused for a moment, and she continued her work after a short moment.
"so?"
Hearing this impolite American term, Lady Christ frowned.It seems that sending Cheng Rong to school dormitory so early is not entirely good, at least a little bad, she has learned these vulgar language habits.
"There is a party at Mrs. Clare's house tomorrow. If you haven't arranged it, you can come with me. Her son is the same age as you. He came out of Cambridge and now works on Wall Street in Manhattan. After a few years of hard work, he should come back Take over his family business."
"Wall Street?" Miss Cheng smiled after hearing that.
Dame Christ thought that Miss Cheng was interested in this little Claire who had never seen her face before.She smiled gratifiedly, "Tomorrow morning we can have a haircut together."
Cheng Rong smiled again. "Can."
The next afternoon, Lady Christ pointed to the young man who was surrounded by a group of noble girls, and said to Miss Cheng, who was not paying attention, "That's Albert."
Miss Cheng dragged the hem of the long red dress, her face was expressionless, with the words "Don't get close to strangers" written on her face.He casually listened to Lady Christ whispering in his ear.
The long red dress she wore today was very gorgeous. The layers of the skirt were like rose petals, wrapping Miss Cheng's fair skin like snow.Bring out her innate nobility and that irresistible beautiful face.
The makeup on her face was extraordinarily luxurious, with blood red lips.Beautiful light brown eyes with shimmery gold eyeshadow on the lids.
Gold is not an easy color to control. Many people have a sense of cheapness when they apply it.
Ms. Cheng is wearing this retro and gorgeous red dress today like a princess of noble birth and education,
But the luxurious makeup on her face is matched with her aura.Apparently a queen.
Lady Crest has already caught up with Mrs. Clare and her son Albert over there.
And Ms. Cheng was wandering in the dessert area, her red dress shuttled between the exquisite desserts and pastries.Although Miss Cheng was born in England, she doesn't like desserts, which are often used as afternoon tea snacks in this country, because she doesn't like afternoon tea.
The reason why she wandered here was that she subconsciously believed that Gu Jiujiu would like these sweet smelling things.
When Lady Christel pulled the two of them towards her, Miss Cheng "missed" a piece of pastry with cream, and the cream on it rolled down her skirt.
The skirt was smeared with sticky cream.
Albert looked at the situation and made an expression to express his surprise.
Miss Cheng raised her eyebrows and said to Mrs. Clare. "Ma'am, I'm sorry, could you please take me to change my clothes?"
Mrs. Clare looked at Ms. Cheng, who was not flustered at all, and smiled at her with satisfaction. "sure."
Mrs. Clare said to her son beside her, "Albert, you accompany this Miss Cheng."
Albert nodded to his mother, Mrs. Claire, then turned to Miss Cheng and smiled, indicating that she could go with him.
"This is the emergency cloakroom specially prepared by my mother for guests. Miss Cheng, you can choose a suitable one from these clothes."
Miss Cheng put down her skirt and did not respond to Albert's words.Instead, she was standing by the window, and the light source made her slender neck look extraordinarily graceful. I have to say that the red dress on her can really highlight the curvaceous beauty of women.
Even Albert, who has been able to handle entertainment in high society since he was a child, has seen all kinds of noble ladies.I was also amazed by the beauty in front of me.
"I heard from Mrs. Clare, your name is Albert, isn't it?"
When Albert heard these words, he didn't even recover from the beautiful scenery in front of him.However, Miss Cheng didn't intend to ask him to answer.
Albert could only hear her cold voice coming from the window, "Mr. Albert, I am not interested in the so-called noble marriage. I hope you can understand this."
Albert even spoke anxiously, "Miss Cheng, I..." He just spoke.But I don't know what to say, should I fight for a chance for myself?
She is just a mixed blood who didn't even inherit the surname of the Countess of Christ. In their circle, where hierarchical blood is extremely important, mixed blood is not a good word, it can almost be equated with hybrid | .
A noble young master like Albert, who has been sought after since he was a child, obviously couldn't let go of his arrogance, and pursued a Miss Cheng whom he didn't even bother to meet before.
Miss Cheng obviously doesn't care what others think of her, she only cares about how she thinks of others.Especially the kind of person she doesn't like, she doesn't even want to talk to him.
"I've chosen my clothes." Miss Cheng casually pulled out a little black dress from the closet.He gave Albert a nod, indicating that he could get out.
Albert had no choice but to close the door for Miss Cheng in a gentlemanly manner and walked out.
After Miss Cheng changed into the little black dress, her aura was significantly different from before.The retro and cumbersome red dress before made it too sexy and delicate.
After changing into this completely different, simple and neat little black dress, she obviously walked a lot easier, at least she no longer needed to hold the skirt.
Long skirts test a woman's manners, while short skirts test a woman's aura.
The little black dress literally liberated women, and it gave women more possibilities.
Miss Cheng has never been a person who likes to please others, no matter in any way.Including sensory.
When Albert turned around, he couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.Ms. Cheng could clearly guess the taste of this man, and she stopped at sexy and delicate women.There is no longer any possibility.
Ms. Cheng evaluates a man's taste, usually through a certain man's aesthetic attitude towards women.
No matter how good a person's background is, a person with poor taste is not enough to look at.Some people can see his future and even his ending just by looking at him.
When the two walked down back and forth, Lady Christ was really chatting happily with Mrs. Clare.
Seeing the figures of two people approaching, the two stopped talking.Lady Christ frowned unconsciously when she saw the suit on Miss Cheng.This kind of little black dress tends to be business-oriented, and it is obviously not the best choice for the prom.Strictly speaking it's not even out of date.
After all, prom is about dancing with male partners, and most men don't like smart women.They are always partial to delicate girls.
But Mrs. Clare, when she saw the little black dress on Miss Cheng, the expression on her face was a little confusing.
Judging by the standards of a daughter-in-law, Albert's wife should indeed have the abilities of a professional woman.
From the eyes of these people, Ms. Cheng saw their self-righteous plans effortlessly.But they did not realize that the person concerned did not agree.
Miss Cheng seemed to have remembered something.He looked at Albert who was not far away. "By the way. I heard that Mr. Albert is working on Wall Street now."
Everyone has heard the great name of Wall Street, the world's financial trading center.Those who can gain a foothold on Wall Street are one in a million, the elite among the elite.Every year, at least 40 talented students who graduated from the world's top universities drive here, and only about [-] people can stay in the end.
Speaking of this, Albert and Mrs. Claire obviously found a space to play.Although he pretended to be casual, he still couldn't hide the pride in his tone, and said with a bit of arrogance, "Indeed, I work on Wall Street."
Miss Cheng asked with a chuckle. "May I ask what your job is?"
Albert said with a little pride, "Stock trader."
Miss Cheng raised her eyebrows, and then asked: "May I ask, are you planning to take over the family business in the future?"
Albert: "That's right. I plan to experience a few years on Wall Street, and then return to the family to take over the business." He seemed to have the intention of showing how much property his family had in front of Miss Cheng, and then reciting the family tree.
Mrs. Clare also continued: "Albert is the best stock trader."
Lady Christ seemed extremely satisfied when she heard this.
Ms. Cheng smiled politely at the two of them, "As far as I know, a stock trader is a worker who serves the shareholders and investors of those business giants. Please allow me to use an apt but inappropriate metaphor, like It is the waiter who passes the dishes in the restaurant, serving the customers who are willing to pay.
So it doesn't seem to have anything to do with taking over a family business.With all due respect, there is still a gap between waiters and senior managers.
Just because your son might be the best server around doesn't mean he can take the place of restaurant manager.Let alone become a shareholder.I say this, I think you should be very clear about my attitude towards this so-called prom. "
Miss Cheng's words were like a sharp sword, piercing through the vanity of Claire's mother and son.
If there is a need for a relationship, Miss Cheng will of course choose a tactful way to refuse.But this Albert has not had any interaction with Ms. Cheng in the past 18 years, which is enough to show that the two people do not belong to the same social circle.
"You..." Claire's mother and son were obviously very angry.
Miss Cheng smiled softly: "Please allow me to make one last suggestion to you, respected Mrs. Claire. The spare evening dress you prepared is very uncomfortable to wear on a human body."
Having said that, Claire's expression changed.
The so-called aristocrats are nothing more than family members who have fallen into poverty, and they can't let go of their airs to support their appearance.
To be honest, the comfort of this little black dress on Miss Cheng's body is really not good.The things prepared for the guests are all such inferior goods, one can imagine how poor the family is.
It is no wonder that some people ridiculed that the noble blood of the empire on which the sun never sets, their brains are blocked by black tea dirt.Immersed in the dream of Queen Victoria and refused to wake up.
Miss Cheng had begun to regret that she had deliberately soiled the red dress, at least it was comfortable to wear.
Regarding the financial status of the Claire family, Miss Cheng noticed it from the moment she came in.
This is the professional instinct of her modeling career. She can tell what is good and what is bad at a glance.What is the classic model that keeps its value forever and continues to appreciate, and what is the out-of-season product that is used to fool people to support the appearance.
The watch in Albert's hand was from a Spanish brand from the year before last, and it wasn't the most classic style.The possibility of his personal preference is not ruled out.But the slight scratches on the strap and the slightly wrinkled leather on the inside undoubtedly show the truth.
Obviously, the things you like will not be used like this. Even if you wear them often, you can send them for regular maintenance.But the cost of maintenance should be enough to buy three watches of the same style.
Even if Albert himself really didn't receive any edification from his aristocratic family, his mother, Mrs. Claire, a noble lady in high society obviously would not fail to pay attention to her son's watch.
Unless, it's an urgent moment that she has no time to take care of.
Miss Cheng's mother, Countess Crest, obviously also saw the clues, and at least she saved enough face for Mrs. Clare.He took Miss Cheng and left early.
In fact, many aristocrats in the UK are facing such an embarrassing situation. They can't let go of their aristocratic airs, and they can't do anything about the dwindling family estates.This includes Miss Cheng's mother, Lady Christ, but she hasn't reached this point yet.
"Cheng Rong...I have to apologize to you today. I didn't expect this situation." Dame Christ's apology was still arrogant.It seems that she is still blaming Ms. Cheng for her behavior of dismantling the stage in public and not giving face, which is rude and upbringing.
Miss Cheng smiled lightly. "I accept. Also, if possible, I would like you to stop interfering in my life."
"Why? Cheng Rong, how can you say such hurtful words to your mother?"
Miss Cheng still smiled lightly. "This is what I really think. If I hurt you, then I'm sorry. But please be aware that most of the people you know are in the same situation as you are. Stop being hostile to your social circle. Unrealistic hope. The power of choice is never in your hands. If you are still living in the 20th century, just pretend I didn't say these words. I already have someone I like. I hope you will respect me s Choice."
The author has something to say: Thank you little fairy for mine, thank you~

The old man nodded, still smiling kindly. "What's the matter, little girl, is there a problem?"
If he could be Miss Cheng's grandfather, from this point of view alone, of course there is no problem.It is very likely that Gu Jiujiu has already started to express himself to the old man.

It doesn't matter who wins or loses.Her monthly pocket money was not a pound more, and her room was not an inch bigger.It would only give her mother a headache, and it wouldn't do her any good.
Cheng Rong's brain is born, she can calmly analyze the situation in any situation, which means she will never do stupid things.Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is her natural ability, and she is so smart that she is cold-blooded.
After moving out, she received a considerable amount of living expenses every month.Her mother feels guilty about her, but at the same time lives more comfortably with her stepfather.
This is a win-win option.Both are good for each other.
So since junior high school, she moved out of the house.Live in a dormitory at a private school.
And for the dormitory life, 12-year-old Cheng Rong made it clear that he was very satisfied.She never expressed any homesickness or discomfort at school to her Duchess mother.
Cheng Rong's 12-year-old is not without any problems, she is just used to solving them by herself.
Especially this kind of emotion that makes people weak and worthless, similar to homesickness, not being able to adjust and so on.In the values of survival of the fittest formed in her mind, there is no need for existence.
From her junior high school winter and summer vacations, she occasionally went home for a few weeks, and then started to work as a part-time model at the age of 16 in high school, and she didn't even have time to go home during the holidays.Over the years, the Countess has always felt that her daughter is so good that she can rest assured.
This feeling cannot be said to be wrong.At least that's how the Countess feels to this day.It might change after today.
Probably every mother subconsciously thinks she is a good mother.She didn't realize that Cheng Rong didn't let her worry, but didn't need her to worry at all.
"How is your life in China?"
Cheng Rong said while sitting on the vintage-trimmed flower and rattan pattern sofa while checking his mailbox. "good."
"Who were you texting with just now? I saw you were smiling happily?" the Duchess asked.
"a friend."
"It is indeed time for you to make some friends at your age. The suitors I follow behind you at your age can already form a football team." Lady Christel smiled, and her words seemed meaningful. refer to.
Cheng Rong's fingers flicking through the mail paused for a moment, and she continued her work after a short moment.
"so?"
Hearing this impolite American term, Lady Christ frowned.It seems that sending Cheng Rong to school dormitory so early is not entirely good, at least a little bad, she has learned these vulgar language habits.
"There is a party at Mrs. Clare's house tomorrow. If you haven't arranged it, you can come with me. Her son is the same age as you. He came out of Cambridge and now works on Wall Street in Manhattan. After a few years of hard work, he should come back Take over his family business."
"Wall Street?" Miss Cheng smiled after hearing that.
Dame Christ thought that Miss Cheng was interested in this little Claire who had never seen her face before.She smiled gratifiedly, "Tomorrow morning we can have a haircut together."
Cheng Rong smiled again. "Can."
The next afternoon, Lady Christ pointed to the young man who was surrounded by a group of noble girls, and said to Miss Cheng, who was not paying attention, "That's Albert."
Miss Cheng dragged the hem of the long red dress, her face was expressionless, with the words "Don't get close to strangers" written on her face.He casually listened to Lady Christ whispering in his ear.
The long red dress she wore today was very gorgeous. The layers of the skirt were like rose petals, wrapping Miss Cheng's fair skin like snow.Bring out her innate nobility and that irresistible beautiful face.
The makeup on her face was extraordinarily luxurious, with blood red lips.Beautiful light brown eyes with shimmery gold eyeshadow on the lids.
Gold is not an easy color to control. Many people have a sense of cheapness when they apply it.
Ms. Cheng is wearing this retro and gorgeous red dress today like a princess of noble birth and education,
But the luxurious makeup on her face is matched with her aura.Apparently a queen.
Lady Crest has already caught up with Mrs. Clare and her son Albert over there.
And Ms. Cheng was wandering in the dessert area, her red dress shuttled between the exquisite desserts and pastries.Although Miss Cheng was born in England, she doesn't like desserts, which are often used as afternoon tea snacks in this country, because she doesn't like afternoon tea.
The reason why she wandered here was that she subconsciously believed that Gu Jiujiu would like these sweet smelling things.
When Lady Christel pulled the two of them towards her, Miss Cheng "missed" a piece of pastry with cream, and the cream on it rolled down her skirt.
The skirt was smeared with sticky cream.
Albert looked at the situation and made an expression to express his surprise.
Miss Cheng raised her eyebrows and said to Mrs. Clare. "Ma'am, I'm sorry, could you please take me to change my clothes?"
Mrs. Clare looked at Ms. Cheng, who was not flustered at all, and smiled at her with satisfaction. "sure."
Mrs. Clare said to her son beside her, "Albert, you accompany this Miss Cheng."
Albert nodded to his mother, Mrs. Claire, then turned to Miss Cheng and smiled, indicating that she could go with him.
"This is the emergency cloakroom specially prepared by my mother for guests. Miss Cheng, you can choose a suitable one from these clothes."
Miss Cheng put down her skirt and did not respond to Albert's words.Instead, she was standing by the window, and the light source made her slender neck look extraordinarily graceful. I have to say that the red dress on her can really highlight the curvaceous beauty of women.
Even Albert, who has been able to handle entertainment in high society since he was a child, has seen all kinds of noble ladies.I was also amazed by the beauty in front of me.
"I heard from Mrs. Clare, your name is Albert, isn't it?"
When Albert heard these words, he didn't even recover from the beautiful scenery in front of him.However, Miss Cheng didn't intend to ask him to answer.
Albert could only hear her cold voice coming from the window, "Mr. Albert, I am not interested in the so-called noble marriage. I hope you can understand this."
Albert even spoke anxiously, "Miss Cheng, I..." He just spoke.But I don't know what to say, should I fight for a chance for myself?
She is just a mixed blood who didn't even inherit the surname of the Countess of Christ. In their circle, where hierarchical blood is extremely important, mixed blood is not a good word, it can almost be equated with hybrid | .
A noble young master like Albert, who has been sought after since he was a child, obviously couldn't let go of his arrogance, and pursued a Miss Cheng whom he didn't even bother to meet before.
Miss Cheng obviously doesn't care what others think of her, she only cares about how she thinks of others.Especially the kind of person she doesn't like, she doesn't even want to talk to him.
"I've chosen my clothes." Miss Cheng casually pulled out a little black dress from the closet.He gave Albert a nod, indicating that he could get out.
Albert had no choice but to close the door for Miss Cheng in a gentlemanly manner and walked out.
After Miss Cheng changed into the little black dress, her aura was significantly different from before.The retro and cumbersome red dress before made it too sexy and delicate.
After changing into this completely different, simple and neat little black dress, she obviously walked a lot easier, at least she no longer needed to hold the skirt.
Long skirts test a woman's manners, while short skirts test a woman's aura.
The little black dress literally liberated women, and it gave women more possibilities.
Miss Cheng has never been a person who likes to please others, no matter in any way.Including sensory.
When Albert turned around, he couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.Ms. Cheng could clearly guess the taste of this man, and she stopped at sexy and delicate women.There is no longer any possibility.
Ms. Cheng evaluates a man's taste, usually through a certain man's aesthetic attitude towards women.
No matter how good a person's background is, a person with poor taste is not enough to look at.Some people can see his future and even his ending just by looking at him.
When the two walked down back and forth, Lady Christ was really chatting happily with Mrs. Clare.
Seeing the figures of two people approaching, the two stopped talking.Lady Christ frowned unconsciously when she saw the suit on Miss Cheng.This kind of little black dress tends to be business-oriented, and it is obviously not the best choice for the prom.Strictly speaking it's not even out of date.
After all, prom is about dancing with male partners, and most men don't like smart women.They are always partial to delicate girls.
But Mrs. Clare, when she saw the little black dress on Miss Cheng, the expression on her face was a little confusing.
Judging by the standards of a daughter-in-law, Albert's wife should indeed have the abilities of a professional woman.
From the eyes of these people, Ms. Cheng saw their self-righteous plans effortlessly.But they did not realize that the person concerned did not agree.
Miss Cheng seemed to have remembered something.He looked at Albert who was not far away. "By the way. I heard that Mr. Albert is working on Wall Street now."
Everyone has heard the great name of Wall Street, the world's financial trading center.Those who can gain a foothold on Wall Street are one in a million, the elite among the elite.Every year, at least 40 talented students who graduated from the world's top universities drive here, and only about [-] people can stay in the end.
Speaking of this, Albert and Mrs. Claire obviously found a space to play.Although he pretended to be casual, he still couldn't hide the pride in his tone, and said with a bit of arrogance, "Indeed, I work on Wall Street."
Miss Cheng asked with a chuckle. "May I ask what your job is?"
Albert said with a little pride, "Stock trader."
Miss Cheng raised her eyebrows, and then asked: "May I ask, are you planning to take over the family business in the future?"
Albert: "That's right. I plan to experience a few years on Wall Street, and then return to the family to take over the business." He seemed to have the intention of showing how much property his family had in front of Miss Cheng, and then reciting the family tree.
Mrs. Clare also continued: "Albert is the best stock trader."
Lady Christ seemed extremely satisfied when she heard this.
Ms. Cheng smiled politely at the two of them, "As far as I know, a stock trader is a worker who serves the shareholders and investors of those business giants. Please allow me to use an apt but inappropriate metaphor, like It is the waiter who passes the dishes in the restaurant, serving the customers who are willing to pay.
So it doesn't seem to have anything to do with taking over a family business.With all due respect, there is still a gap between waiters and senior managers.
Just because your son might be the best server around doesn't mean he can take the place of restaurant manager.Let alone become a shareholder.I say this, I think you should be very clear about my attitude towards this so-called prom. "
Miss Cheng's words were like a sharp sword, piercing through the vanity of Claire's mother and son.
If there is a need for a relationship, Miss Cheng will of course choose a tactful way to refuse.But this Albert has not had any interaction with Ms. Cheng in the past 18 years, which is enough to show that the two people do not belong to the same social circle.
"You..." Claire's mother and son were obviously very angry.
Miss Cheng smiled softly: "Please allow me to make one last suggestion to you, respected Mrs. Claire. The spare evening dress you prepared is very uncomfortable to wear on a human body."
Having said that, Claire's expression changed.
The so-called aristocrats are nothing more than family members who have fallen into poverty, and they can't let go of their airs to support their appearance.
To be honest, the comfort of this little black dress on Miss Cheng's body is really not good.The things prepared for the guests are all such inferior goods, one can imagine how poor the family is.
It is no wonder that some people ridiculed that the noble blood of the empire on which the sun never sets, their brains are blocked by black tea dirt.Immersed in the dream of Queen Victoria and refused to wake up.
Miss Cheng had begun to regret that she had deliberately soiled the red dress, at least it was comfortable to wear.
Regarding the financial status of the Claire family, Miss Cheng noticed it from the moment she came in.
This is the professional instinct of her modeling career. She can tell what is good and what is bad at a glance.What is the classic model that keeps its value forever and continues to appreciate, and what is the out-of-season product that is used to fool people to support the appearance.
The watch in Albert's hand was from a Spanish brand from the year before last, and it wasn't the most classic style.The possibility of his personal preference is not ruled out.But the slight scratches on the strap and the slightly wrinkled leather on the inside undoubtedly show the truth.
Obviously, the things you like will not be used like this. Even if you wear them often, you can send them for regular maintenance.But the cost of maintenance should be enough to buy three watches of the same style.
Even if Albert himself really didn't receive any edification from his aristocratic family, his mother, Mrs. Claire, a noble lady in high society obviously would not fail to pay attention to her son's watch.
Unless, it's an urgent moment that she has no time to take care of.
Miss Cheng's mother, Countess Crest, obviously also saw the clues, and at least she saved enough face for Mrs. Clare.He took Miss Cheng and left early.
In fact, many aristocrats in the UK are facing such an embarrassing situation. They can't let go of their aristocratic airs, and they can't do anything about the dwindling family estates.This includes Miss Cheng's mother, Lady Christ, but she hasn't reached this point yet.
"Cheng Rong...I have to apologize to you today. I didn't expect this situation." Dame Christ's apology was still arrogant.It seems that she is still blaming Ms. Cheng for her behavior of dismantling the stage in public and not giving face, which is rude and upbringing.
Miss Cheng smiled lightly. "I accept. Also, if possible, I would like you to stop interfering in my life."
"Why? Cheng Rong, how can you say such hurtful words to your mother?"
Miss Cheng still smiled lightly. "This is what I really think. If I hurt you, then I'm sorry. But please be aware that most of the people you know are in the same situation as you are. Stop being hostile to your social circle. Unrealistic hope. The power of choice is never in your hands. If you are still living in the 20th century, just pretend I didn't say these words. I already have someone I like. I hope you will respect me s Choice."
The author has something to say: Thank you little fairy for mine, thank you~
