After thanking Wendy Goldberg, Li Mu stayed alone in his room to rest.
Wang Yuanlang and the other three were placed next door, while Li Ziwei was not on the same floor as him.
While Li Mu was resting, all the guests at the Goldberg Manor were inquiring about the location of Li Mu's room. Some even came to look for it. However, as soon as they entered the area where the Goldberg family lived, they were greeted by a gentleman wearing a black suit. The staff who were extremely incompetent and did not give any leeway stopped me.
There are only two ways for outsiders to get in. First, they must be invited by members of the Goldberg family; second, they must be invited by guests living inside.
After convincing a large number of people to leave, other guests who were eager to try also gave up the idea and instead pinned their hopes on the upcoming dinner party later.
At seven o'clock in the evening, someone knocked on Li Mu's door. Li Mu got up from the bed, opened the door, and found that standing outside the door was Wendy who had changed her clothes.
Perhaps because she was preparing for the dinner, Wendy put on a royal blue evening dress. Her figure was wrapped in the evening dress, showing perfect curves. Her long golden hair was elegantly tied behind her head, and she was as white and tender as jade. On her neck, she wears a string of sparkling diamond necklaces, which is beautiful and elegant.
Many men look at Scarlett Johansson and think that this woman has average appearance but a unique temperament. She exudes a kind of wild sexiness, which can easily make men have primitive impulses. However, Wendy Goldberg is obviously a top-notch version. Scarlett, although she is 80% similar to Scarlett, she is better than her in every way. Coupled with the elite temperament she has cultivated in her body, it is really eye-catching.
Wendy is an extremely confident woman at heart, which is inseparable from the aristocratic upbringing she has received since childhood. This confidence is not reflected in pride and arrogance, but in the fact that she can show it at any time, on any occasion, and in front of anyone. In contrast, although Anne Hathaway's appearance and temperament are not inferior to her, in front of her, or in front of Li Mu, she only lacks this firm self-confidence.
"Mr. Li, the dinner is about to start. Grandpa asked me to invite you down."
Li Mu nodded slightly and said, "Wait a moment, I'll put on my suit."
Wendy smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you here."
Li Mu returned to the cloakroom and changed his clothes. It was still the same basic formal suit as today, including a suit, shirt, tie and leather shoes.
After changing his clothes and walking out, Li Mu walked up to Wendy and said, "Miss Wendy, let's go."
Wendy nodded, but did not move. Instead, she took out a neatly folded handkerchief from her handbag, stuffed it into the left front pocket of Li Mu's suit with both hands, and arranged the perfectly exposed edges.
"That's much better." Wendy winked at Li Mu and said, "Let's go."
As soon as the two of them went out, the door of the next room opened slightly. Wang Yuanlang and three others came out in formal attire and stood side by side against the wall. Li Mu greeted them, and the three of them followed directly behind him and Wendy. Walked out to the corridor.
Li Ziwei also came over at this time. When she saw Li Mu and Wendy walking side by side, she did not come up to talk to him. Instead, she held a notepad and followed Li Mu silently.
This banquet of the Goldberg family has been prepared for a long time. The banquet hall on the first floor is already bustling with activity. The top black jazz band plays exquisite pure instrumental music live, creating a perfect musical atmosphere for the scene.
More than two hundred guests have gathered in the banquet hall. The earliest of them arrived three days ago and have been preparing for this banquet for a long time. They are all dressed up in a bright and grand manner. It is said that the guests from France and Italy The top fashion designers have been extremely busy this month, specializing in customizing the most fitting and elegant clothes for some of these ladies and ladies.
Davidson was holding a red wine glass and walking among the crowd with a smile on his face. Starting from Goldberg's ancestors, this family has never held such a grand banquet. Almost all the top wealthy families in Europe were present. This was not the case in the previous few years. In ten or hundreds of years, no family has been able to do it. The only thing that can do it is the birthday of the Queen of England. After all, the British royal family's status among the entire European royal families is unmatched.
At this time, Davidson had just finished a brief chat with several princes of the Dubai royal family, and was about to chat with members of the Saudi royal family, but was suddenly stopped by someone: "Hey, Davidson, it looks like you are going to run an errand today. Don’t you give up until you stop?”
Davidson stopped and looked around. He looked at the speaker who shook his head helplessly and smiled, then stepped forward and said, "William, you are still so mean when you speak."
The man called William is a little old man about the same age as Davidson. He is the leader of the Macmillan family. The Macmillan family is a large political and business family in the UK. If you compare the net worth, it may not be as good as Goldberg. family, but in terms of overall strength, the Macmillan family is not inferior to Goldberg.
A total of four direct members of the Macmillan family came this time. In addition to William Macmillan, there were also his two sons and the family's eldest grandson.
William Macmillan has been in power in the family for a long time, and has not actually delegated power to his two sons for decades. But now that he is older, he has begun to prepare to directly transfer power to his eldest grandson, and with Wendy. Goldberg also graduated from Cambridge University with George Macmillan.
Coincidentally, George Macmillan has always had a soft spot for Wendy Goldberg, and William Macmillan also wanted his favorite eldest grandson to marry Davidson's eldest granddaughter, so a few years ago, William Start communicating with Davidson about this.
As the Macmillan family has made continuous progress in the British and EU politics in recent years, Davidson has indeed regarded the Macmillan family as the best destination for Wendy for a long time.
However, things are different now.
The MacMillan family is indeed very good, but in front of Li Mu, there is almost no comparison.
William MacMillan used a telescope to watch Davidson's performance in front of Li Mu today. He already knew what he was planning, so he felt particularly unhappy at this time.
Little did Davidson know that his every move today was being watched secretly by everyone. At this time, he said to William somewhat triumphantly: "Oh, I really didn't expect that so many people would come to this year's party. All of a sudden, It makes me exhausted and exhausted!"
William chuckled and said, "Being exhausted is fake, but being elated is real. Look at how happy you are, you can't even close your mouth."
Davidson hurriedly touched his face and said with a smile: "I am definitely happy when I am happy, but I am also sincere when I am tired. I have to entertain so many people, and I am particularly worried that I have neglected or neglected the guests."
William nodded perfunctorily, and then said to him: "By the way Davidson, George is about to celebrate his 24th birthday, Wendy is also 22 years old this year, and both children are of marriageable age. In my opinion, wait for you After we have been busy for a while, our family might as well start preparing for the lifelong event of the marriage of our two children, right?"
After hearing this, Davidson's expression froze, then immediately returned to normal, and said with a smile: "William, we should not be too anxious about the children. Wendy told me some time ago that she wanted to go to China to study for graduate school. If she really goes there, , it will take at least two to three years.”
"Going to China to study for graduate school?" William said disdainfully: "If I remember correctly, Cambridge's global ranking this year is fifth. The best university in China is also outside the 200th in the world, right? You want a fifth-ranked university in the world? Top graduates go to 200 foreign universities around the world to study for postgraduate studies? This is simply ridiculous!"
Davidson smiled helplessly and said: "William, this is the child's choice, not my choice. If it were me, of course I would like her to stay in the UK and go to Cambridge or Oxford. It is very close to home and she can come back to see her often. I'm a bad old man, but Wendy is my most beloved granddaughter, and I can't interfere with her judgment, let alone influence her choices."
There was something in Davidson's words. On the surface, he said that he could not interfere with which school Wendy chose to attend graduate school. But in fact, what he really wanted to say was that it had nothing to do with how Wendy chose her boyfriend or her marriage.
In fact, everyone knows very well that children born in big families, who become talented, are without exception restricted by the family, controlled by the family, and work hard to be the family puppet. Those children who have been given great freedom since childhood are often It is the object of abandonment and exile since childhood.
Wendy is a leader among the young generation of British aristocratic children. It doesn’t take much to know that the restraint, interference and discipline she has received since she was a child must have been with her forever. It is absolutely impossible for Davidson to let Wendy make her own choice in such a big matter as graduate school. The only possibility Sex means that he was actually the one behind Wendy's plan to go to China to study for graduate school.
Combined with what he saw in the telescope, Davidson's flattering look in front of Li Mu, William's expression suddenly turned cold. He had determined Davidson's intention. This guy now looked down on his eldest grandson George!
Davidson saw some changes in William's eyes and expression. He looked up and saw Bill Gates appearing in the banquet hall. He hurriedly said to the Macmillan family: "Excuse me, gentlemen, a good friend is here. I'm going to entertain him." one time."
After saying that, before the McMillan family could react, Davidson had already rubbed oil on his soles and quickly slipped away.
Bill Gates had just entered the banquet hall at this moment. As the richest man in the world today, his appearance still attracted a lot of attention. Many people who knew him, were familiar with him, or had never met him took the initiative to say hello to him. He was a little tired for a while.
Davidson quickly came to Bill Gates and said with a smile: "Bill, why are you coming down so late?"
Bill Gates pushed up his glasses and said with a smile: "The company has something to do. We will launch a whole set of new products soon. This set of products is the top priority of our company in the next stage. It is of great significance. Fortunately, my colleagues in the company They are all excellent and nothing went wrong, otherwise I would have spent tonight in my room watching the computer."
Because Davidson has a deep relationship with HSBC Holdings and Sequoia Capital, both of which are well-known capital companies in the Internet field, he knows more about the Internet industry than the average traditional European rich man, so he is very surprised. Asked Bill Gates: "Why should such an important thing be put on today? Why not wait a few days until you get back?"
Bill Gates' expression flashed with excitement and excitement, and he said: "Today is the most appropriate time to put this set of products on the shelves."
After that, he looked around and asked Davidson curiously: "By the way, isn't Li Mu already here? Where are the others?"
