Of course Pan Jiajun could hear the irony in Pan Ting's words. (!)
There was no other way, the matter had come to this, Panting had no choice but to "happily" accept it.
About half an hour later, almost all family members had gathered in the Pan family mansion.
In addition, Zakvi Alnas also appeared in the other courtyard with several bodyguards.
In order to show full trust, Zakvi Alnas waved his hand very sincerely and let all the black bodyguards go out. Seeing this scene, everyone in the Pan family felt even more honored and happy. Of course, only the dignified and gorgeous Pan Ting couldn't really laugh.
"Excuse me, it's a great honor for you all to welcome me like this." Since his close friendship and cooperation with the Pan family, Zakvi Alnas's Chinese language skills have been improving by leaps and bounds. Unexpectedly, this guy is also a language genius. He When they came all the way with Pan Wang, the two of them kept talking in Chinese.
All these signs indicate that Zakvi Alnas is determined to turn the Pan family into a long-term and reliable partner.
In fact, he is very far-sighted. The rapid development of Huaxia over the years is enough to make many foreign big families and powerful forces stunned. Of course, although the gap between the rich and the poor in Huaxia is increasing day by day, the profit benefits created by this, and The potential for future development is still quite huge. Now working with the Pan family, one of the top business families in China, is an investment in their future.
It is no exaggeration to say that given time, the situation of one superpower and multiple powers in the world may become two superpowers, or China may squeeze out the United States and become the only superpower in the world.
In short, these two families are like bastards and have an eye on each other.
In order to realize this great cooperation, Pantene had to choose to make sacrifices for her family. Of course, love is precious, and her admiration for Lorraine is deeply rooted in her heart. Unfortunately, her heart longs for the bright moon, but the moon is missing. Furthermore, Lorraine never gave Pan Ting a chance to get closer to him, so it was naturally impossible for the two to deepen their relationship. Now that the Luo family and the Pan family belong to two camps, it is even less possible for them.
Therefore, with the eternal regret in her heart, Pan Ting kept her love at the level of admiration.
Maybe she should be lucky that she didn't have time to get deeper into it yet.
In fact, Pan Ting's feelings for Lorraine are equivalent to Pan Jiajun's feelings for Han Xuan.
The so-called love at first sight seems nonsense, but it happened to the two brothers and sisters of the Pan family at the same time.
After a rumbling welcome, everyone took their seats one by one and began to eat.
The Pan family's mansion is comparable to those of big families in the world in terms of appearance, overall decoration style and taste. Amid the splendor and hospitality, Zakvi Alnas felt at home. He drank half a kilo of the national wine specially prepared for him by the Pan family.
Sure enough, as Pan Jiajun said, Zakwei is a very funny and graceful man, and his laughter was the most cheerful during the dinner. Everyone could see that he was in a good mood, and while drinking and talking, he would look in the direction where Pan Ting was sitting from time to time. There was clearly a hint of love and admiration in his eyes.
Sitting next to Pan Ting at the dinner was Pan Meiling, the only single woman in the second generation of the Pan family. Pantene's aunt.
This is an unwritten rule of a wealthy family. Once it is a wedding banquet, the daughter who is sent on a blind date must be accompanied by her aunt. This was passed down from a large family in ancient times, and the Pan family still uses this tradition today.
The specific function may be that the aunt can accompany the niece to chat, whether the niece is happy or unhappy.
"Tingting, you are really blessed. This American man is very handsome and very graceful." Pan Meiling, who was sitting next to Pan Ting and wearing purple clothes, showing off the charm of a mature woman, smiled at Pan Ting.
"...Aunt, can a woman born into our family have this fate? - Didn't you and your uncle fall in love freely back then? Didn't grandpa agree to it later?"
Pan Meiling shook her head slightly when she heard this: "Haha, free love, Tingting, do you know why your aunt divorced your uncle?"
Pan Ting shook her head: "Did I cheat on you behind your back?"
"It's more serious than cheating." Pan Meiling said with a trace of sadness on her face, "My aunt saw the wrong person. Before marriage, she thought he was the one in my heart. In fact... he was greedy for the interests of our family... so..."
Hearing this, Pan Ting suddenly realized that this was the first time she heard her aunt say these things.
"Auntie is telling you this now just to make you understand. Although the so-called free love is a way to pursue freedom, there are too many unsafe factors. Only those who have been checked by the family can be with you. For long-term people, at least, there will be no background problems. And isn’t the so-called free love just a feeling? When two people have been together for a long time, is the previous freedom and passion still there? It is probably difficult to find it again. What you get is just an ordinary life. So, it doesn’t matter even if you marry your family partner now. As time goes by, you will naturally develop feelings, and there is a strong maintaining factor such as family interests between you. , so you will go further."
After a pause, Pan Meiling said sadly: "You never know how painful it is for a woman when a fragile marriage breaks down."
Pan Ting felt a little sad when she heard her aunt's words.
As the youngest daughter of the second generation of the Pan family, Pan Meiling was considered a beautiful daughter-in-law among wealthy families in the capital. Countless descendants of wealthy families pursued her, but she chose to marry an unknown person. The boy got married, and Mr. Pan, who was not yet dead at that time, had a very open-minded attitude towards this. Agree to this marriage developed from free love.
But later, after getting married, her uncle exposed a series of outrageous conspiracies and thoughts. For the benefit of the family and for the Pan family not to be laughed at, she had no choice but to file for divorce and, under the suppression of the Pan family, expelled the unfaithful man. Out of the capital. -Pan Meiling thought he had gone far away. In fact, Mr. Pan sent someone to kill the man and throw him into the sea to feed the sharks. The Pan family will not allow such people to live in the world.
No matter what, Pan Meiling has been single for so many years.
It's not that she doesn't want to find a new partner, it's because... she has a history of marriage. Even if some members of the family want to have a relationship with the Pan family, they are still very taboo about this. As for finding an ordinary man to experience a free marriage again, Pan Meiling, who had been hurt once, naturally did not dare to touch it again.
"Auntie is already forty this year, and she is getting older. Haha, I'll just be single for the rest of my life..." Pan Meiling said to Pan Ting earnestly, "So, Tingting, aunt doesn't want you to follow my old path. Instead, I, I will agree to this marriage without hesitation. The so-called free love... is just a fairy tale among our wealthy families."
Hearing this, Pan Ting gently patted her aunt's waist and sighed quietly.
Yeah, maybe... This is also a good choice.
The possibility of Lorraine who Pan Ting belongs to in her heart is almost zero... Pan Ting, Pan Ting, accept this reality, Lorraine is now just an enemy of the Pan family. The person sitting in front of you is a friend of your family. For the sake of your family, do you choose friends or enemies? It's obvious...
In this way, in a subtle and warm atmosphere, the dinner ended.
Zakvi Alnas, who was a little drunk, was sent to the VIP resting area in the ovary of the mansion.
As the future head of the Pan family, Pan Jiajun must of course establish a good relationship with the future head of the Alnas family from now on.
"Haha, that wine called 'Motang' is really delicious. It's really good. I like it." Although Zakvi Alnas, who smelled of alcohol, was a little drunk, his wealthy qualities in his life were still the same. He didn't lose his composure. He walked steadily and behaved moderately. At best, he just seemed a little happy.
"Well, Mr. Arnas, are you talking about the 'Maotai' bar?" Pan Jiajun said with a smile, "If you like it, I will send someone to prepare a few boxes for you when you return to the United States this time."
"Okay, okay, this time I came to the capital, I really gained a lot. Don't you Chinese people have a saying? Good wine matches a beautiful woman?"
Here we go, let’s get to the point!
Pan Jiajun smiled gently, and while walking with Alnas to the guest's residence, he said with a smile: "So... Mr. Alnas, are you talking to your roommate...?"
"Well... Actually, Mr. Pan..." Suddenly, Alnas paused, with a trace of embarrassment on his face.
Seeing this expression, Pan Jiajun was stunned. What do you mean? Didn't you like Tingting
"you say."
"Actually... Mr. Pan, your sister is very beautiful, even more beautiful than Jessica, but..."
really! —Pan Jiajun was slightly stunned. What did he mean by the phrase "good wine matches a beautiful woman" just now
Before Lorraine could think about it, Zakvi Alnas spoke: "What I like... is the beautiful lady next to Miss Pan... I don't know, is that lady from your Pan family? Yours elder sister?"
Hearing these words, Pan Jiajun's heart trembled - I'm going to choke him, what's going on
Is this Zach Verizhen a heavy drinker as his name suggests? —I kept saying how stunning and beautiful our Pantene is before, but in the end, I fell in love with my aunt? ? ? ~
