Chapter 235: Gathering (II)
After paying the bill, the three were about to set off when Gao Liang's phone rang.
"Hello, Dad?"
"Has your sister picked you up?" Eric asked.
"Picked up, we are preparing to leave the airport."
"Then stay at the entrance for a while; Grandpa has already sent someone to pick you up."
"Going to Grandpa's manor tonight? That's too far."
"First pick you up to stay at the hotel, then go tomorrow morning."
"Then we'll probably have to wait until the afternoon; we have to audition in the morning."
"Whatever, arrange it yourself, pay attention to safety."
Gao Liang hung up the phone, and Luo Quan asked: "Was that Dad?"
"Yes, saying Grandpa has already sent someone to pick us up, and the hotel is booked too."
"That's good." Luo Quan nodded, not asking much more.
After waiting for a while on the side of the road at the airport, a nine-meter-long extended Rolls-Royce stopped in front of everyone.
Two tall men in suits got out of the car, one about forty years old, the other in his early sixties.
"Young Master Gao Liang, Miss Luo Quan." The two men bowed to the siblings, their attitude respectful.
Seifert let out a loud whistle, not because of these two servants, but because of the luxury car in front of him.
Rolls-Royce Phantoms are not uncommon, but a nine-meter extended version is rare. Such a car is a sky-high price no matter where it is placed, starting at at least 20 million US dollars.
Gao Liang was a bit helpless: "Grandpa Barry, I've said it before, you don't need to be so polite outside. It's the 21st century, why still do this?"
Luo Quan had never seen this formation, and was quite awkward: "Yeah, 'Young Master' and 'Miss', it sounds so distant. Our country doesn't have this saying either."
Barry smiled, only saying: "I am a servant of the Albert family."
Gao Liang sighed and didn't say anything more.
Such a situation reminded Luo Quan of a textbook she learned in elementary school.
It was the story of Xun Ge'er and Runtu; childhood playmates and close friends, but when they met again after growing up, there was the distinction between master and servant.
It can only be said that the dross of feudalism is really harmful.
However, Seifert looked quite excited. After sitting in the car, he kept saying he wanted to experience the life of a noble.
Although his family is also wealthy in the United States, it hasn't reached the point of having everything handed to him, so he was quite envious of the life Gao Liang had experienced.
Gao Liang saw his good friend so expectant and rolled his eyes at him: "Believe me, you might think it's very good at first, but you won't feel it's a torture in less than a week."
"I don't believe it."
"Countless etiquettes and courses will require you to learn. Everyone in the manor will suddenly appear when you are looking for fun, telling you this can't be done, that can't be done."
"Fortunately, I only stayed there for less than two years, otherwise I would definitely be driven crazy."
"Is it that terrifying?" Seifert still had an expression of disbelief.
Gao Liang spread his hands: "It definitely won't be like this now, after all, you are a guest, and I have grown up."
By the time the car arrived in the center of London, it was already midnight.
The lights on the street were a bit dimmer than before, but the number of people on the street was not small; instead, there was a trend of increasing.
The car speed was not fast, and Luo Quan leaned against the car window, still able to observe those people standing under the streetlights.
There were H-people, and also ZD people with big beards.
The H-people's clothing was slightly better, and occasionally one could see brands like Nike or Adidas.
The ZD people looked much more embarrassed, and many people's clothes looked like they hadn't been washed for a long time.
They were in groups of three or five, either gathered under streetlights or street corners, or wandering around on the sidewalk, looking quite happy.
It is worth mentioning that there was almost no local person on the street, and the nearby shops also closed their doors tightly, even the convenience stores with 24-hour signs were closed.
It is said that the UK has accepted a lot of refugees; I think these are them.
Although the public security at midnight has been greatly affected, compared with France and Germany, the refugees in the UK can be considered relatively peaceful.
When the car arrived at the hotel entrance, the world seemed to change instantly.
It was brightly lit and bustling with traffic.
The street was still lively, shops were still open, fashionable young men and women could be seen everywhere, and wealthy fat men were hugging slim and beautiful ladies in and out of the hotel.
This is the atmosphere of a capital of a developed country, but for some reason, it looked a bit dazzling in Luo Quan's eyes.
This difference is like heaven and hell.
"This is it." The car stopped, and Barry opened the car door. "This is our own hotel of Albert Real Estate, five-star. I can only wrong the Young Master, Miss, and the Young Master's friend to make do for one night here."
Listen, is this human language?
Seifert smiled: "Oh my, can a five-star hotel be considered making do?"
After entering the hotel, Gao Liang and Luo Quan didn't wear sunglasses, but they didn't expect to meet acquaintances here, of course, Gao Liang's acquaintances.
"Oh, Gao Liang, long time no see!" An Arab man in a white robe dragging on the floor and wearing a black-circled white cloth walked over. His English accent was very pure, and his face was handsome, just a bit dark.
Behind him were six bodyguards, each of them burly, with bulging veins faintly visible on their temples, looking like practitioners at a glance.
"It's you, Abshir!" Gao Liang also didn't expect to see this long-lost friend here.
Abshir was full of smiles: "Let me guess, this should be your sister Luo Quan, right?"
No matter where, Luo Quan without sunglasses is the most beautiful person in the audience, and no one can ignore her.
Gao Liang turned his head to introduce Luo Quan: "This is the current third prince of Dubai, Abshir, and also the Wang Chu of the Emirate of Dubai."
"Nice to meet you." Abshir said to Luo Quan in Chinese that was still understandable.
"Hello." Luo Quan nodded in greeting.
"By the way, are you also here to attend Prince Henry's engagement banquet?"
Gao Liang frowned: "No, we are here to participate in the movie casting audition. No one mentioned to us that Prince Henry is getting engaged."
Abshir asked curiously: "That shouldn't be; even those people from Japan and Thailand were invited."
Luo Quan's eyelids jumped when she heard this, thinking of a certain Imperial Grandson.
Gao Liang smiled: "This is also normal. Those invited are royal members. What are we ordinary people joining in the fun for?"
It can be heard that he seems to have a lot of opinions about these British royal members.
"Anyway, it's really rare to meet you here. The last time we met should be two years ago, right?
After you finish the audition this time, you must go to Dubai with me to play for a few days!"
Before Gao Liang could speak, Seifert stepped forward and interrupted: "The Wang Chu is so warmly invited, how can Gao Liang bear to refuse?"
"Who are you?"
"I am Gao Liang's agent and good friend, Seifert."
"Gao Liang's friend is my friend. When the time comes, you can go to Dubai with him to play!" As he said this, Abshir also shifted his gaze to Luo Quan.
The latter hurriedly waved her hand: "I still have many things to do in China, so I won't join in the fun."
Abshir looked regretful: "That's really a pity. My brother Harimandan likes your songs very much. Before you released your album, he bought tens of thousands of copies and sent thousands of servants to queue up for your limited edition records, just for your signed photo."
So that wealthy Arab prince was this one's brother; the world is really small.
However, for the sake of his brother being Gao Liang's good friend, Luo Quan planned to give him a gift as a thank-you for his support of her work:
"How about this, I'll sign an autograph in a while, and I'll trouble you to take it to him, and thank him for his support for me."
Abshir was overjoyed: "That couldn't be better... You just got off the plane, right? Is the hotel booked?"
Gao Liang looked at Old Barry, who had been waiting with a smile for a long time: "Booked."
Abshir nodded: "Then I won't disturb you anymore. You rest early. After attending the engagement banquet, I will come to find you again!"
After speaking, Abshir took a few bodyguards out of the hotel, probably to find fun.
After the person left, Luo Quan sneezed loudly.
For so long, this was the first time she had been so ungraceful in public.
After sneezing, Luo Quan looked around like a thief. Fortunately, apart from them, there were only a few attendants in the lobby, no paparazzi with cameras.
"God, if I endure it for a while longer, my rhinitis will probably flare up." Luo Quan made a joke, wanting to ease the embarrassment.
Gao Liang said helplessly: "The body odor of people over there is indeed quite large, and spraying so much cologne can't cover it."
Seifert was curious: "I also spray cologne, which can barely cover it, but you never apply that; why is there never any smell on your body?"
Humans outside East Asia generally have large body odor and heavy hair, so spraying perfume and removing hair are common occurrences abroad.
It's not a shameful thing to say, because the vast majority of foreigners are like this, but he has known Gao Liang for so long, and he has no smell at all, nor does he spray perfume. Is he that one lucky person?
Gao Liang thought for a while and said: "My dad doesn't have it either. It's probably hereditary. After all, my grandmother is Asian."
"Race, genes!" Seifert sighed repeatedly.
"By the way, why were you so anxious to accept his invitation just now? The schedule is so busy, and you still have time to go to Dubai to play for a few days?"
Seifert said proudly: "Otherwise, why would I say you can only be an ordinary employee, while I am the manager of the market research department?"
Gao Liang asked back: "Isn't it because your dad is the president of Universal?"
Seifert was suddenly like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "Fart! What does my current achievement have to do with my dad?! This is all walked out step by step by my own ability!"
Gao Liang looked at him and didn't speak.
Seifert persisted for a long time, but finally gave up: "Okay, I admit there is a little relationship... but this is not the point. The point is Dubai. Do you know Dubai?"
Luo Quan replied: "I know Dubai. It is the capital of the Emirate of Dubai and also the economic and financial center of the ZD region. It is full of giants, all rich enough to flow oil."
"See, your sister knows better than you."
"Who doesn't know this kind of common sense? So what are your plans?"
Seifert continued to explain: "As one of the richest and most developed cities in the world, if you can hold a tour in Dubai, how much fame can it bring you?"
"Abshir is your good friend. It shouldn't be difficult for the Wang Chu of Dubai to hold a tour on his own territory, right?"
Gao Liang frowned: "But I don't really like to trouble him so much."
"How can it be called trouble? As the organizer, he is the one who takes the big share of the proceeds from this tour."
"Dubai has a population of more than 3 million. If you count half men and half women, there is a potential fan group of 1.5 million. If the tour tickets are set higher, do you think he is making money or losing money?"
"Do you think Dubai can have so many girls who like me?" Gao Liang became unconfident for the first time.
Seifert was speechless and could only look at Luo Quan: "My good friend's sister, how many Chinese men in their twenties do you think don't like you?"
"Except for gays and some special sexual orientations, barely 70% or 80%." Luo Quan smiled and gave a very conservative estimate.
It was indeed very conservative. After her looks improved, Luo Quan had a built-in opposite-sex favorability buff. It's hard for men with a normal mentality not to develop a good impression when seeing him.
As for those who black her on the internet, the vast majority are girls.
There are also boys, but basically they are "hating because of love". After all, if you can't get it, you have to destroy it.
By analogy, Gao Liang, who has the same level of looks as Luo Quan, also possesses the same, or even better, charm among girls.
After all, no matter where, star chasers are mostly girls, and most of the spending and support are also from girls.
Seifert said: "Dubai is not some underdeveloped area in ZD. It is one of the best cities in the world. Girls there also go online and also like handsome guys."
"And as a fighter jet among handsome guys, are you still afraid of not being able to sell tickets when you go there?"
"It seems to make some sense, but your adjective..."
"Don't worry about these details." Seifert patted Gao Liang on the shoulder. "This matter is settled anyway. If you feel embarrassed, I will help you mention this to Abshir then."
After speaking, Seifert shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity Luo Quan can't go, otherwise she could kill both men and women, and earn more!"
Hearing this, the siblings could only shake their heads and laugh.
This guy is really in the eyes of money.
Taking the elevator, the three came to the presidential suite on the top floor.
One room per person, the space is very spacious. Outside the window is the Thames River flowing through the whole of London, and on the river is the famous London Bridge.
Luo Quan stood by the window, took a photo with the night light, and then posted it on Bilibili's status:
Here, this is the London Bridge you wanted.
