Chapter 239: Manor

After chatting with the reporters for a few words, Luo Quan and Gao Liang got into a Rolls-Royce parked on the main road outside the theater in full view of everyone.

No matter where, the extended Rolls-Royce Phantom is an extremely eye-catching rarity.

Although everyone knows that these siblings come from a super-rich family, and various privacy has been dug very deep, but after truly seeing this scene that is like showing off wealth, whether it is reporters or some stars, they all ignited a burning fire of gossip about these siblings.

Taking photos and discussing are naturally indispensable.

It is foreseeable that the two will be on major news newspapers by tonight at the earliest, or tomorrow morning at the latest.

"Young Master, Miss, your luggage has been packed. Are we going to stroll in the city, or go directly to the old master's manor?" Barry sat in the passenger seat and turned to Gao Liang and Luo Quan.

"Do you want to go shopping?" Gao Liang asked Luo Quan.

"No need." Luo Quan has no interest in shopping. Since the last time she accompanied Wen Xia to Wang Fujing and her legs were cramped, she has never been willing to go to the street again.

Now that online shopping is so developed, what can't be bought on Taobao or JD?

Since no one wanted to go shopping, Barry directly let the driver drive out of London.

After driving for about an hour, the car drove away from the smooth asphalt road and onto a dusty forest path.

Both sides of the road were planted with two or three-meter-high cherry trees, full of pink cherries. The car drove through them, as if traveling in a dark pink ocean.

Barry looked at the cherry trees outside the window and smiled: "If you came a month or two earlier, this place would be full of pink flowers, and the scenery would be more beautiful than it is now."

"When I came here a few years ago, these trees were not much taller than me, and they didn't bloom. Now they have grown up." Gao Liang's words and eyes were full of memories.

"When you came, Young Master, these trees were just planted. After a few years, these trees are very healthy and have all grown alive."

"Are the cherries on the trees delicious?"

Seifert's focus is often different from others. He just wants to taste what this natural pollution-free cherry tastes like.

Barry smiled: "Of course it's delicious, sour and sweet. The maids in the manor have already picked the first batch that matured, and you can taste it as soon as you get off the car."

As he was speaking, the car drove out of this cherry forest.

In front was a sea of violets that could only be described as brilliant. The sunlight was reflected by these flowers that filled the eyes as if only the purple spectrum was left. The wind brought up by the car drove through and gently lifted the petals, leaving a road paved with fresh flowers behind.

"So beautiful." Luo Quan had lived so long, and this was the first time she had seen such a spectacular sea of flowers. These violets, just what she saw, should be dozens of acres!

Barry sighed: "Violet is the flower the Madam liked most. Her wish has always been to have a violet flower garden, but unfortunately she passed away before she could realize this wish."

"The old master has never forgotten the Madam. A few years ago, he planted violets all around the manor. The old master said that seeing them is as if the Madam has always been by his side."

"Eternal love." Luo Quan said softly.

"What?" Gao Liang turned his head to look.

"This is the flower language of purple violets." Luo Quan replied, "By the way, Gao Liang, have you seen Grandma?"

"I have, she was a very gentle, very gentle woman, with a smile on her face at all times."

"But I only spent less than a year with her. At that time, she was actually detected with terminal pancreatic cancer and had been supported by drugs for four years. She passed away not long after I returned to the United States."

"That's really a pity." Even Seifert, who loves to play tricks, didn't dare to say anything out of line at this time, and could only say it was a pity with a solemn expression.

Luo Quan didn't make a sound, just looked quietly at the violets swaying in the wind.

Soon, the car drove into a manor built of brownish-yellow square stones.

The entrance of the manor only had an iron gate facing the cherry forest. Not far from the entrance of the manor was a typical European-style fountain.

The fountain was quite large, and it would be more than enough to use as a swimming pool for three people.

Four security guards stood at the gate, each of them burly, their waists as straight as flagpoles, their eyes sharp.

Going deeper, one could see a lush garden landscape. Gardeners were working in it, followed by several maids cleaning up the branches and leaves cut to the ground.

The towering castle had now entered Luo Quan's sight.

However, passing through the garden landscape, it was an open space. On the left was an open-air parking lot with five or six luxury cars parked in it, and on the right was a row of tall trees whose names Luo Quan couldn't call out.

The open space in the middle was set with many tables and chairs, and maids and servants walked between the tables and chairs, preparing for the upcoming birthday banquet.

After the driver drove the car into the parking lot and parked it, he went to pick up the luggage, while Luo Quan and others walked forward under Barry's leadership.

Passing through the open space, it was the core area of this manor—the castle.

This castle was larger than all the castles in the film and television works Luo Quan had seen.

The castle as a whole looked like a traditional European-style castle, and the color was quite new, probably because it was often taken care of and renovated. Compared with the hot scene outside, the hall inside the castle looked relatively quiet.

An old man in a black and white wool sweater sat on a rocking chair, with his back to Luo Quan and them.

A maid stood on the side behind him. The maid was about to open her mouth to remind the old man after seeing Luo Quan and them, but was stopped by Gao Liang.

He tiptoed to the old man's back, about to raise his hand to cover his eyes.

"You are so big, why are you still so naughty?" The old man adjusted his glasses. He had seen Gao Liang approaching him step by step from the reflection long ago.

"You found me again. Grandpa, you are always so alert." Gao Liang still didn't understand why he had never succeeded in a sneak attack?

Charles rotated the rocking chair, looking at Gao Liang with a kind smile.

Then, he saw Luo Quan behind Gao Liang, his smile stagnant: "You must be Luo Quan, right?"

"Grandpa." Luo Quan called out a bit awkwardly.

Charles sighed: "I have seen your photos at Eric's place. You are indeed a very beautiful girl."

"Grandpa, sister is globally recognized as the most beautiful in the world!"

The old man was quite gratified: "Haha, the genes of our Albert family are good. None of those born look bad!"

"Let me introduce you, this is my good friend, Seifert." Gao Liang pulled his good buddy in front of Grandpa.

"Hello, Gao Liang's grandpa." Seifert suddenly became extremely well-behaved.

Charles stroked the tough beard on his chin: "I remember I met your father a few times, but unfortunately there was no cooperation. By the way, is your grandfather's health okay?"

Seifert replied: "Grandpa's health has not been very good, but not too bad either. He has been recuperating in San Francisco for the past few years, and all the company's affairs have been handed over to my dad."

"All old, all old." Charles stood up and handed the newspaper in his hand to the maid.

"Grandpa, I have something to ask you." Gao Liang came to Charles's side, "I heard that Prince Harry is going to hold an engagement banquet in a few days. Do you know about this?"

Charles nodded: "I know? They also sent me an invitation... Why, do you want to go? Didn't you hate getting along with these royal people the most before? Saying they are hypocritical and snobbish, all vampires in human skin."

Gao Liang hurriedly waved his hand: "I didn't say that vampire part, that was your own evaluation of them."

Charles laughed: "It is indeed a vampire, but haven't I been evaluated like this by the public? When capitalists accumulate capital, the vast majority of income comes from the exploitation of the ordinary class of society."

Gao Liang was speechless: "You know that and still sell the house so expensive?"

Charles shook his head: "Everyone sells so expensive. If I lower the house price, it is breaking the rules."

"No matter where, people who break the rules will not end well."

"Why did you suddenly chat with me about this? I want to ask you, has the engagement you made for me and a certain princess of the royal family been canceled?" Gao Liang circled for a long time and finally returned to the topic.

When Charles heard this, he showed an angry expression: "Knowing that you don't like arranged marriages, you mentioned this every few days before, so your grandfather had to be this villain."

"The matter of dissolving the marriage was mentioned, and they agreed. The consequence is that this time I had a birthday banquet, and they didn't even want to come, directly replying to me with 'the whole family is ill'."

Gao Liang complained: "That's not because you insisted on going to arrange a marriage with them, without considering my opinion at all."

"Besides, isn't that princess unwilling either."

"That's what I said..." Charles originally wanted to educate Gao Liang again, but finally gave up. Anyway, it's all over. As for offending that royal relative, it's a small matter.

Subsequently, Charles focused his attention on Luo Quan.

Since entering, Luo Quan has behaved more like an outsider than Seifert, an outsider.

Just standing there stiffly, not knowing what to do, not knowing what to say, very awkward.

"Don't be so restrained." Charles comforted Luo Quan in a gentle tone, "Just treat this as your home."

"Hmm." Luo Quan nodded, and her body relaxed a lot.

"I heard from Eric that you are a singer?"

"Yes, releasing albums while going to school, and will go to film and participate in variety shows in my spare time."

"It's a good thing to still be studying. Don't be like your brother, not reading Harvard properly, and insisting on being some kind of girl idol. It's simply not doing your proper job!" Charles said, looking at Gao Liang sideways.

Then the other three were a bit embarrassed, because according to the old man's standards, their work was equal to not doing their proper job.

"You are completely prejudiced, Grandpa." Gao Liang hurriedly defended himself, "It's the 21st century now. Why is an idol not a proper profession?"

"Besides, I haven't been a girl idol for a long time!"

"Then what are you!" The old man was furious.

"The idol of all women, also called a friend of women." Gao Liang smiled proudly, and Luo Quan snorted, almost unable to hold back.

She didn't expect Gao Liang to be so cold in front of the camera, and usually didn't talk much, but he would be more naughty than Seifert in front of Grandpa.

After hearing Gao Liang's words, the old man was so angry that his hands trembled, looking as if he was looking for something.

"What are you looking for, old man?" Seifert was curious.

"I'm looking for my cane!" The old man said fiercely.

At sixty, his body is still healthy. Not to say he is walking like flying, but the cane is of no use to him.

However, this prop has been kept in his house for a few years.

Don't think that foreign education of children is about language communication and building a bridge of mutual understanding between parents and children.

There are still many parents who believe in what is actually similar to that set in China, that is, jade is not polished, it will not become a tool, and people will not be beaten, it is easy to be naughty.

When Gao Liang was a child, he was simply a chaotic demon in the manor. Chefs, security guards, gardeners, maids, etiquette teachers, and even Charles, there was no one he didn't dare to play tricks on.

At first, his etiquette teacher tried to use language to make him turn over a new leaf, but it had no effect, and he was even teased more miserably.

Since then, there has been an extra cane in the castle. As long as Gao Liang is naughty, Charles will pick it up and do it.

It had some effect at first, but later it could only play a deterrent role, and now, it is estimated that even a deterrent role cannot be played.

The cane that beat Gao Liang, the old man finally didn't find it. He was so big, and it was impossible to pull down his pants and beat his butt.

"Are you in love?" After ending the play with his grandson, the old man asked about Luo Quan again.

Luo Quan shook her head: "Not yet, I haven't been in love so far."

Charles was a bit surprised: "Nineteen... Is China still so conservative? Girls of your age in the UK have already talked about several."

Luo Quan explained: "In fact, many junior high school students of thirteen or fourteen in China have started to fall in love, but I mainly don't want to talk about it myself."

"It's mainly because you are too excellent, and you can't find a boy who is a good match for the time being." Seifert helped explain.

Gao Liang saw that the old man seemed to want to say something and hurriedly raised his hand to stop him: "You must not introduce those noble young masters to my sister again. My sister doesn't need those wastes to solve the single problem."

The old man was angry: "You still look down on them. Which of those noble young masters has a lower education than you?"

"Since you said so, then I will be superficial once." Gao Liang smiled, "Whether you want to arrange a blind date for me or my sister, you can."

Luo Quan stared and looked at Gao Liang fiercely.

"The blind date you find for me, as long as she is more beautiful than my sister, I will go."

"The blind date you find for my sister, as long as he is more handsome than me, she can go." Gao Liang smiled confidently, proud of himself.

The old man looked at Gao Liang and then at Luo Quan, not knowing what to say for a while.

PS: Thanks to book friend "Little Little Little Yu", "Xiao Xiao Meng Gui" for the book coins, thank you! ===== CHAPTER 240 =====

"As for the blind dates you set up for my sister, as long as they are more handsome than me, she can go to them too." Gao Liang smiled with immense confidence, getting carried away.

The old master looked at Gao Liang, then looked at Luo Quan, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Ps. Thanks to book friends Xiao Xiao De Xiao Yu and Xiao Xiao Meng Gui for the tips, thank you!
