After ABO amnesia
Chapter 12 Birthday Banquet
June [-]th, the day of the birthday party.
The Balmond family estate covers an area of one thousand acres, surrounded by a verdant pasture.Looking around from the car, it's like entering a paradise. You can vaguely discern a few people riding horses leisurely around the border of the manor.
But when he got closer, Qin Li realized that this Xanadu was actually heavily guarded, with small drones circling in the sky from time to time.A group of well-disciplined bodyguards stood at the entrance of the manor, all of them were high-level Alphas, verifying each guest's invitation.
The ostentation of the birthday party was bigger than Qin Li expected.
The car was stopped at the entrance.The window of the rear seat fell automatically, Mingjue handed the invitation to the bodyguard waiting beside the car, the bodyguard pinched the smooth texture of the invitation with his fingertips, looked at Sr.Ming and Sr.Li written in black ink on it, There was a crack in the serious expression, and he squeezed out a not-so-kind smile, and said respectfully: "Mr. Ming, the master specially ordered that he will wait in the reception room to meet you and your partner."
Ming Jue nodded, and the rear window closed again.The driverless sports car automatically drove towards the parking lot of the manor.
Qin Li watched many well-dressed men and women walking towards classical revival-style villas along the road. Most of them were Alphas and Omegas from the upper class, and they always behaved with a bit of a smile.
Fortunately, he and Ming Jue both wore dark formal attire today, so they didn't fall behind in terms of clothing.
Ming Jue had probably already thought up how to lead him into the upper-class social circle in South America. The tuxedo he was wearing had been ordered half a month ago, and it didn't arrive in his hands until yesterday.The clothes were well tailored, and Ming Jue even gave him a bow tie just for this purpose. Compared to the rigid and old-fashioned pure black bow tie, the one Ming Jue gave him was dark gold, with meandering patterns embroidered with bright gold silk threads on it. Eye-catching but unconventional.
Qin Li didn't ask Carlos for help, so he tied the tie by himself.Then he adjusted the position of the bow tie in the mirror, which was generally perfect, as if he was used to doing it.
There are still many bodyguards in black guarding the gate of the villa.Their eagle-like sharp eyes stared at everyone passing by.
After entering the villa, a waiter greeted them and introduced today's arrangement: bypassing the front hall, walking through a long and narrow corridor will lead directly to the back garden of the villa.Most of the guests gathered there at this time, chatting and laughing happily.There is still a lot of food prepared in the garden, and waiters carrying trays shuttle among the crowd, waiting for orders at any time.The waiter said there would be a dance there in half an hour.However, if they are not interested in dancing, the spacious study room on the right wing of the villa has prepared fine red wine for gentlemen to drink and chat, while there is a large movie theater on the left wing.His master had studied in the European Union in the early years, and most of the films in his collection were masterpieces of the European Union in recent years.
"Of course," the waiter paused suddenly, "If you are distinguished guests from the Asian League, the master has arranged the best itinerary for you today. The master is already waiting in the reception room, please follow me."
The reception room is next to the study in the right wing of the villa.The heavy wooden door was closed tightly, and the waiter opened the door after knocking three times, and said to the people inside: "Master, Mr. Ming and the others are here."
At this time, Sebastian Balmond was standing in front of the European-style floor-to-ceiling windows.He had a panoramic view of the scenery outside the window, but people passing by the window could not see the people inside—for the sake of privacy, the villa is equipped with single-sided perspective glass windows.
As today's birthday star, Sebastian is wearing a traditional and complicated black tuxedo, with a golden pin on the neckline in the style of the Balmond family crest - a lion carrying the South American United Nations flag.Same as the last time I saw him, he was still leaning on the dragon-headed cane.Thin but tall and straight, full of aristocratic demeanor.
Hearing the waiter's voice, Sebastian turned around, winked for the waiter to leave, and then said hello to Ming Jue and Qin Li respectively.
Qin Li suddenly felt that they received special treatment today——
Perhaps among these hundreds of guests, they were the only ones who received Sebastian's private meeting.
Sebastian: "Our Balmond family has always been friendly with various families and dignitaries in the upper class of South America. Therefore, there are inevitably more guests today. I have not informed you in advance. Please forgive me, Mr. Li."
"Mr. Balmond speaks too seriously."
Unlike the feeling of talking in the villa that day, today's occasion is more formal.Qin Li should pay attention to his wording when speaking.
In fact, he also couldn't understand why Sebastian invited him to this banquet, just because he was Ming Jue's "lover"?
It never occurred to him to acknowledge the title.But it's all here, it seems that his best plan today is to act as Ming Jue's tail, speak less and less.
"Please come here to meet first, I want to inform you that I will introduce you two in front of all the guests later." After exchanging greetings, Sebastian went straight to the topic.After speaking, there was a slight smile in his eyes.
"I'm bothered about this." It was Ming Jue who answered.The calmness on his face seemed to have expected Seba to come out like this.
Only then did Qin Li suddenly understand that Seba wanted to use the birthday party as an opportunity to introduce Ming Jue to the high society in South America.In other words, after today, no matter what kind of business Mingjue wants to do in South America, it will be unimpeded because of the support of the Balmond family.
Thinking of this, Qin Li's eyes suddenly darkened.
What kind of benefits did Ming Jue promise Sebastian to make the other party willingly pave the way for him to such an extent?
He didn't think Don Balmond, who dominated South America, was some kind-hearted philanthropist.On the contrary, he should be one of the shrewdest and most scheming businessmen in South America--of course, you can't tell from his appearance at all.
Seeing that Ming Jue and Qin Li had no objection, Seba pressed his thumb on the eyeball of the dragon's head cane, and an Alpha bodyguard came in from outside after a while.
The Alpha bodyguard folded his hands on his chest, which meant loyalty, and asked with a nod, "Master, what are your orders?"
Seba's voice was not loud, but very clear, echoing in the spacious reception room, "Have all the guests arrived?"
"Yes."
Seba nodded in satisfaction, "Mr. Na Ming, Mr. Li, please."
At this time, the sun outside was already in the sky, but it was not in the interest of basking in the sun.The invited orchestra has already taken its place under a white umbrella in the garden, playing melodious classical music.
On the vacant green lawn in the middle of the garden, several couples of waltzing men and women gradually appeared.But as soon as they saw Seba coming out with a cane, they all stopped dancing and listened to Seba's toast.
The waiter brought Seba a glass of champagne.
Seba took it over and held the glass high. The volume was still quiet, and the guests who stood far away had to listen to his voice, "Everyone here is the most loyal friend of the Balmond family. There is no need to feel uncomfortable at this banquet. Restraint, please feel free. Of course, before you enjoy this pleasant day, I would like to introduce our distinguished guests from afar."
Said, Seba turned sideways and turned to Ming Jue and Qin Li, "There must be someone who has heard of his name, he is Mr. Ming Jue Ming, the chairman of Yameng Wanhe Pharmaceutical Group, and he is standing beside him This one is his lover, Mr. Li."
As soon as the words fell, applause broke out.
The author has something to say:
This chapter has not changed much on the original basis, but the whole birthday party plot will be expanded.
