On the second day after Shen Ming took over the security work, he pulled Gatsby out of bed at 6:00 in the morning, because he promised to accompany world superstar Angelina Judy for a morning run.
Gatsby didn't know if he had a brain twitch to arrange such an itinerary, but Gatsby had the advantage that he never broke his promise, even if it was something he didn't like.
After the morning exercise, the real work begins. For tomorrow's party, Gatsby has to personally choose the drinks, taste the meals, and make sure that the ice sculpture decoration is the 1:1 restored Venus he wants.
In fact, anyone who knows Gatsby knows that this kind of busy person usually does not organize the party to such a delicate level. He leaves many things to his assistants to take care of. There are at least 3 special party companies in the city. More than a hundred professional celebration staff make a living by taking care of Gatsby.
But this time the banquet was just like what he said, Gatsby paid attention to it, and he pursued the ultimate in everything. At noon, Xiao Yi also went to the international airport to pick up a truckload of nearly 10,000 tulips imported from the Netherlands, just to decorate the venue.
And Shen Ming drove Gatsby to the largest imported wine store in Los Angeles, and had a rare lunch in a cellar-style restaurant.
"Does Mr. Shen Ming understand red wine?" Sitting on the sofa, under the dim light, Gatsby shook the liquid in the glass to check the status of the hanging glass.
"I understand a little."
"Okay, let's have a drink together. I have tasted too much and my sense of taste is numb." Gatsby is not exaggerating at all. There are at least two different brands of red wine on the table in front of him, although it is not a buyout price. It is rarer than gold, but the price of a single piece is not less than 1,000 US dollars. Besides, for party use, Gatsby's order quantity will not be less than 200 pieces. This is why the boss of the philistine can let Gatsby The reason why Tsby opened wine tastings at 50% off.
"I'm sorry, I'm working and don't drink." Shen Ming politely declined.
"Then treat wine tasting as a kind of work. If you don't pick it out, we can't go anywhere." Gatsby can always threaten or guide you in that smiling and understated way, so that you can't refuse his request.
"I really hate you a little bit. If you are on the battlefield, I would rather let go of 10 tanks, and I must kill you first." Shen Ming sighed and sat beside Gatsby, holding He picked up a clean wine glass.
"If you don't like me, how can you hate me? People are such contradictory creatures. I have never cared much about the difference. As long as they can sit together, they are all friends." Gatsby took the initiative to pick up a The freshly sobered red wine was poured into Shen Ming's cup.
"I admit Gatsby, you are very special. I have never met anyone like you. Even the religious leaders of African warlords don't know how to control the field and manipulate people's hearts better than you. I always feel that people can't let everyone I like myself, but looking at you, I think you might be able to do this.” Shen Ming said calmly, although Gatsby had kidnapped himself to be his bodyguard, but in getting along, he still couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. This employer has a good impression.
"Thank you for the compliment. I also like Mr. Shen Ming's personality. You clearly have the power to easily submit me, but you still choose to abide by the rules and protect me in exchange for what you want. There are too few people who can do this. "Gatsby clinked glasses with Shen Ming lightly.
"Why do you suddenly feel like you're comparing each other? Talking about other things, what are you going to drink for?" Shen Ming asked.
"Is this particular?" Gatsby became interested.
"The wine before fighting with the enemy, the stronger the better; the wine with friends talking about the past and the present, the more mellow the better; the wine with lovers, the softer the better."
"Which one does Mr. Shen Ming think it is?"
"You have tasted all the wines above, and you are still not satisfied. You can only say that the person you care about is an enemy, a friend, or a lover... Such a complicated relationship, let me guess, your party tomorrow is a proposal party, right? Object It's... K..." Shen Ming said with a smile as he tasted the wine.
"It's really smart, how did Mr. Shen Ming see it?" Gatsby admitted very readily.
"You can find out the clues at the party last night. You are a person who lives casually. You will never waste time socializing with things or people you don't like. But you obviously hate K's party so much, so you still have to go to the party where you can't find him." Happy, it's not cheap, it's love."
"Actually, K was not like this before. She and my family are family friends, and we can be called childhood sweethearts growing up together. In the days after my parents died, my personality became very weird, and I didn't want to associate with others. A rebellious person only wants to do evil things, and looks like he wants to fight with people all day long.
At that time when no one liked me, she was the only one who didn't abandon me. She always taught me what was right and what was wrong, took me to church, and took me to various banquets. I always deliberately caused trouble to make her look bad, so that her parents hated me, but K insisted on taking me to continue participating, otherwise she would not go.
That's it, I became cheerful and learned to care about other people's feelings, and gradually began to be liked by others. Everyone started looking for me to play, and I also started to help plan various banquets, becoming the party master today.
But after I was liked by others, she started to be jealous and even hated me. We have become competitive in everything, and I don't know when it started. She no longer wears skirts, doesn't like men anymore, and is always chasing all kinds of girls around her.
I also can't stand it, I just pick up whoever she picks up, and in the end it becomes even more incompatible. "Talking about the past that has never been told, Gatsby couldn't help but sigh.
"Obviously you know this kind of relationship, you still go to propose marriage? Why do you die?" Shen Ming has seen many naive dicks who think that Bai Fumei will fall in love with him and become a good man, but he has never seen him who is so naive as to pursue an enemy or a lesbian Girl, this is the latest trick to kill yourself...
"This is something I promised her, maybe she has forgotten, but I must keep my promise." Gatsby tasted the wine.
"What if you are rejected? Can the great Gatsby afford to lose this man?"
"For her, what is there to lose? It's just that once you've reached this point, it's hard to be normal if you don't succeed. I think I'll leave Los Angeles, whether it's studying abroad or traveling, leaving with her life?" This is the first time Shen Ming has seen Gatsby look so unconfident.
The biggest regret in life is that you owe what you shouldn't owe, and love someone you shouldn't love...
"Good luck, just this one, the taste is complex, just like your love affair." Shen Ming picked a wine from a new French winery from a bunch of wines, it was raw and immature, it was definitely a bunch of wines The worst of them all, is also the best for Gatsby.
"Thank you." Gatsby said sincerely.
At the same time, Xiao Yi, who finished delivering the bouquet, started running all over the city to deliver invitations. Although the vast majority of people at tomorrow's party are notified by phone, a small number of special guests need to send invitations in person.
"Oh, I'm running around like a dog, and you two are sitting and drinking, it's so fucking unfair." Xiao Yi walked in the corridor of the 5-star hotel and sighed, looking at Gatsby's Facebook homepage, what was refreshed was exactly A photo of drinking with Shen Ming.
Look at the invitation name on the invitation card is also weird - a heroine from the Celestial Dynasty, obviously Gatsby doesn't know the guest's name? It is only with the help of a huge network that I know the hotel where the guests are staying.
Xiao Yi knocked on the door of the luxurious honeymoon suite, and when she was about to repeat the formulaic invitation, the girl who opened the door made Xiao Yi's mouth wide open.
"Wan'er?!"
"sister in law?"
"Why are you here?!" The two asked at the same time.
Afterwards, the conversation started. It turned out that Wan'er was upset that her brother left her and ran abroad, so she took Huang Yibo and followed her secretly. The food, drink, and travel all the way were supported by the fat man's gold cards. Chic and happy.
"Oh, you are really pitiful." Xiao Yi looked at Huang Yibo and sighed.
"It's okay, classmate Wan'er has restrained herself..." Huang Yibo broke his teeth and swallowed.
"By the way, I know Gatsby. When I was 'working', his internal pricing was very high, almost catching up with the worth of senior government officials. But no one placed an order for him. It's hard to imagine such a high-ranking man. People don't attract hatred?" Wan'er played with the exquisite invitation card.
"Wan'er, let's not go, according to my sister's opinion, your brother is also there, it would be a bad meeting." Huang Yibo also knew Shen Ming's temper, if he met Wan'er face to face, it would be a world war.
"Go! Why don't you go? It's a world-class party. It's a rare opportunity to participate once in a lifetime. Of course, I have to see it. My brother is not a tiger. I'm afraid he will eat me and I won't succeed?" Xiao Yi, "I don't understand, why did you invite me?"
"I don't know the general content. It seems that you educated a female star that Gatsby hates so much that you want to make friends with you." Xiao Yi sighed, "Anyway, I don't want to get involved with you two. I won’t tell him when you come. Wait until you meet yourself. Wan’er, don’t make too much noise. Your brother is really in a hurry this time. It’s our friend who was kidnapped. She was also the first girl your brother protected after he became a bodyguard. She has helped your brother a lot, and the debts your brother has been owed have not been repaid."
"Sister Xiao Yi, in fact, you don't have to speak well of my brother. In my opinion, he is a big fool. If I had a girlfriend as good as you, who the hell would have the time to toss about other women? Obviously, Sister Xiao Yi That's good, wouldn't it be over if you just marry? Make trouble for yourself!" Wan'er said so that Xiao Yi's face turned red.
"What did Xiao Nizi say? Your brother and I are just colleagues! I have to leave beforehand. You are going out, pay attention to safety." Xiao Yi fled away a little bit.
"Why is Miss Xiao Yi liking Brother Shen Ming, but is so afraid of admitting it?" Huang Yibo also saw the entangled emotions between the two.
"Be ashamed~~ Wangcai, get dressed, we are going out, we have fun tomorrow, we must buy a nice dress." Wan'er showed her white canine teeth with a smirk.
"Buy again?" Huang Yibo's legs trembled with fear.
