Chapter 240: Guests Come Like Clouds

If it were a few years ago, even in front of Miss Luo Quan, Charles would have to pull down Gao Liang's pants and beat him up!

"You are just like your bastard father, glib and not serious!" The old man sat back on the chair and took a few deep breaths.

Now he has handed over the company's work to the second child, and it is time to start enjoying his old age. Keeping a happy mood can make him live a few more years.

As the saying goes, speak of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.

Here the old man just mentioned Eric, and the latter walked in with his new wife.

"Dad, how is your health recently?" Eric walked in with a smile.

The old man was expressionless: "Okay, not pissed off by you."

Eric stuck a hot face on a cold butt, thinking that he hadn't been home for so long, the old man should be quite happy to see him, why did he give him a cold face as soon as he came in?

"What's wrong?" Eric asked Miss Luo Quan in a low voice.

"You ask brother." Miss Luo Quan couldn't laugh or cry.

"Did you make Grandpa angry again?" Eric kicked Gao Liang from behind, of course, without force.

Luo Ni frowned: "Don't be so rough. Don't they say that foreigners pay attention to communication? Why is it like my dad, moving hands and feet."

Eric's tone softened by three points when talking to Luo Ni: "This is my family's tradition."

Gao Liang was very aggrieved: "Isn't it that Grandpa wants to arrange a marriage for me and sister as soon as he comes back? I just put forward a condition, and Grandpa got angry."

"Okay, don't talk about these things. It's a big deal that I won't care about these things for you in the future?" Charles waved his hand and ended the topic.

Turning his head to look at his son and daughter-in-law, his attitude softened: "Arrived so quickly?"

"Yeah, took the plane last night, and came here as soon as I got off the plane." Eric said, pulling Luo Ni to the front, "Dad, this is Luo Ni, and also Miss Luo Quan's mother."

"Hello, Dad." Luo Ni was much more generous than Miss Luo Quan, not afraid of strangers at all.

The old man stood up and said in a deep voice: "These years have also been hard for you and Miss Luo Quan. Those things back then were actually not entirely his fault, more of my responsibility."

Luo Ni smiled gently: "It's all in the past."

Eric held his wife's hand and didn't speak, everything was in silence.

"By the way, your brothers and sisters will be back tonight. Communicate more when the time comes. It's been years since we met..."

Eric nodded, but didn't answer.

Miss Luo Quan observed the words and expressions on the side and found that the relationship between her father and those uncles and aunts didn't seem to be very good.

Mostly for the family property, this is basically a script that has remained unchanged in every wealthy family.

However, looking at her father's character, he doesn't look like someone who likes to fight and grab. No wonder he has been traveling around the world all these years. It is probably because he didn't want to stay in the UK and fight for power with several brothers and sisters.

But now that he is back, many things are probably unavoidable. I just hope that there won't be too many quarrels at the birthday banquet.

During the thinking, Butler Barry led Eric's family upstairs.

The first floor of the castle is a very spacious hall. Crystal chandeliers as bright as stars hang above the hall. When they are turned on at night, it must be extremely magnificent.

There are two stairs leading to the second floor, one left and one right surrounding the entrance of the castle's back garden. After rotating 180 degrees, the stairs will disappear into the stone wall of the castle.

Going up again, it is the private and quiet bedroom.

Miss Luo Quan doesn't know how many rooms this castle has. Anyway, they skipped the second floor directly and came to the third floor.

The area of the third floor is one-third smaller than the first and second floors, but just the room doors she saw were more than ten, and each was separated quite far.

"The old master usually lives in the first room at the corner of the stairs. The rooms behind these are empty, and you can move in directly in any room." Butler Barry said and opened a door.

Inside is a completely modern decoration design, but the bed is quite retro, metal bed frame, the mattress is laid very high, various carvings, hollows, making people feel noble in sensory.

"Then I'll take this room." Miss Luo Quan didn't pick, and asked the maid to carry her luggage in.

"Then Gao Liang and Seifert want these two rooms." Gao Liang pointed to the two rooms next to Miss Luo Quan, and Gao Liang and Luo Ni were in a room deeper.

After arranging for the maid to put the luggage away, Butler Barry said: "There is an intercom on the bedside. If you have any needs, press the button, and there will be a maid to answer 24 hours a day. In addition, after the afternoon meal is ready, I will also send someone up to call everyone."

These words were actually said to Miss Luo Quan and Seifert, after all, they were here for the first time.

Walking into the room and closing the door, Miss Luo Quan finally lay on the bed relaxedly.

I don't know what brand this mattress is, but it's more comfortable to sleep than a five-star hotel.

As for other decorations, there is nothing to say.

Renovating in such a castle with hundreds of years of history is actually very difficult, and the restrictions on renovation are also very large. It definitely can't compare with the carefully designed decoration of those modern luxury houses.

However, the specifications for living in it are considered very high.

Moreover, living in a castle and living in a luxury house are two completely different concepts.

Taking off her shoes and lying on the bed, Miss Luo Quan started to brush Weibo.

If there is no accident, the rhythm of this audition should have been brought up in China.

Sure enough, she saw her name on the hot search:

"Miss Luo Quan audition failed!"

"This morning, Miss Luo Quan auditioned for the female lead of "Lord of the Rings" at the Royal Opera House in London. According to the reporter's interview with her, the result of the audition seems to be unsatisfactory. In the case of having obtained the qualification to play the female lead, she finally chose to give up because of personal reasons."

Director Ford's fame in China is not as big as in the world.

Everyone just likes the movies he filmed, but they don't know much about the director himself. Although this "Lord of the Rings" was very hot abroad, there were not many related reports in China.

After all, in China now, all film and television-related media are promoting "Wolf Warrior 2".

So after the news of Miss Luo Quan's audition failure came out, melon-eating crowds and those who mocked and ridiculed each other accounted for half.

"Does this count as losing face abroad? I heard that there were many international media at the scene. It is estimated that the whole world knows that Miss Luo Quan was brushed down."

"Look at the article carefully. It was originally decided, but she gave it up herself because of personal reasons. It's not that she was brushed down at all."

"You believe what the media writes? It's obviously to save face for Miss Luo Quan."

"For the female lead, she didn't even record the show, specially ran to the UK to lick the stinky feet of foreign directors, and didn't get selected in the end. Laugh to death."

"The audition should just be on the way. Miss Luo Quan went to the UK mainly to celebrate her grandfather's birthday."

"Are you her relative? So clear?"

"Before speaking, go to Bilibili to see her personal status. She explained very clearly to netizens what she went to the UK for yesterday. I hate you brainless blacks the most."

This long-lost feeling, Miss Luo Quan suddenly felt strange and familiar.

Some time ago, her reputation improved to the point that the whole Weibo was full of voices praising her. This is actually very rare in the entertainment industry, especially for a young star with such a large traffic like her, it is almost a rare existence.

It has been too long since I saw comments scolding her and blacking her, so that Miss Luo Quan almost forgot what kind of place Weibo is.

Fortunately, these people are currently just being sarcastic, not scolding people, so they don't care too much.

As for the reports of these media, they are quite true, basically without adding oil and vinegar or distorting her speech.

Thinking about it, she still intends to keep silent in this rhythm, because there is really nothing to say. If you don't get selected, you don't get selected. Regret is definitely regret, but there is no other way.

However, after "Lord of the Rings" explodes in the future, these people have the possibility of pulling these things out and whipping the corpse.

Looking at Twitter again, foreign media are not as anxious as domestic ones. The news media that interviewed her before have no movement. It is estimated that they will report after the movie's casting is completely over, but it is estimated that it will be in these two days.

After about half an hour, Butler Barry came to inform that lunch was ready and let everyone go down to eat.

Miss Luo Quan followed her father to the dining room, and the long dining table was full of food.

Today's staple food is steak, and there are many other meat side dishes and vegetables. Dessert was not seen, and it is estimated that it will be served later.

"Daughter, aren't you losing weight? Do you want to go and make some other food?" Luo Ni sat next to Miss Luo Quan and asked in a low voice.

"I haven't lost weight for a long time. I eat meat every day now and have gained more than ten pounds."

"Didn't see you fat?" Luo Ni was surprised and a little envious.

In order to maintain her figure, she actually doesn't dare to eat big fish and meat. Of course, eating once in a while is nothing, but eating too much will definitely get fat.

Didn't expect her daughter to eat like this every day, and she doesn't look fat at all, really...

While talking, Miss Luo Quan had already picked up the knife and fork and started eating.

Just like foreigners using chopsticks, Miss Luo Quan's use of knife and fork was quite clumsy in the eyes of the old man and others.

Fortunately, she was relatively reserved when cutting meat, and didn't cut it into a quarter of a fist size like the braised pork before.

Since she stopped losing weight, Miss Luo Quan's appetite has increased day by day. Today's steak was only eaten clean by her and Seifert, and others left some more or less.

The old man saw Miss Luo Quan's empty plate and Miss Luo Quan who was still stuffing muffins into her mouth, his eyes surprised: "Unexpectedly, you have such a good appetite. It seems that today's dish is very suitable for your appetite."

"It's really delicious." Miss Luo Quan showed a polite and not awkward smile, thinking that foreign steak is always particular about being small and refined. Every time it is such a stingy bit of steak. If she didn't take care of her image, she would finish it in a few bites.

As for the taste, it's not very good.

The steak is naturally the best snowflake Wagyu beef. This top-grade beef full of fat is not oiled when frying. It uses the beef's own oil. The steak fried in the end can be described as melting in the mouth.

However, such meat has no chewiness at all. Miss Luo Quan feels it is not as good as the frozen old beef fried to ten mature in ordinary restaurants.

Fortunately, there are many side dishes on the dining table, and finally filled her stomach.

Just after the family finished eating, the other children of the old man arrived one after another with their families.

The first to arrive was the old man's second daughter, named Sonia, ranked fifth in the family, 35 years old this year, currently serving as a professor of economics at Oxford University, a truly high-educated talent.

It is worth mentioning that this aunt of Miss Luo Quan, who is full of intellectual beauty, is still single.

"Ah, my cute nephew, Auntie hasn't seen you for a long time!" As soon as Aunt Sonia entered the door, seeing Gao Liang, she couldn't help but bite Gao Liang hard.

"Auntie, why are you still the same as before!" Gao Liang struggled to break free from Aunt Sonia's magic claws.

When he came to London as a child, every time he met Aunt Sonia, he couldn't avoid being wantonly ravaged by her. Didn't expect that he would still be treated like this when he grew up.

Sonia shifted her gaze to Miss Luo Quan: "This must be my niece, right? I heard about you a long time ago, but not from my brother, but on the Tdler website."

"Real people are much more beautiful than photos~~~"

Seeing Sonia's infatuated look, Miss Luo Quan can be 100% sure that this aunt of hers is a face-controlled person, and she can't move when she sees handsome men and beautiful women!

Finally, the old man couldn't stand it anymore. I don't know when he had an extra cane in his hand, and knocked heavily on the ground: "As an elder, pay attention to your image, don't be crazy all day like your fourth brother!

Also, why didn't you go to the blind date I arranged for you before? This is the how many times you have let others go?"

Well, it seems that this grandfather of hers likes to be a matchmaker for his family, and he has to intervene in everyone's marriage.

Sonia curled her lips: "I didn't ask you to arrange a blind date for me, you are self-indulgent..."

"What did you say?" The old man stared, and the latter didn't dare to speak.

The old man was about to say a few words to his youngest daughter, letting her not think about doing her research and academic reports all day, and at least think about her lifelong events.

Another handsome blonde man walked in from the door. Looking at his looks alone, he was even more outstanding than his own father, probably because he was younger.

"Oh, old man, when are your legs inconvenient? Why are you holding a cane." The handsome blonde man put his hands in his pockets and joked.

Miss Luo Quan finally knew where her brother's poor mouth skills were learned.

This time the old man didn't soften his hand, waved the iron cane in his hand and made a gesture to draw, but was stopped by the eldest son.

"What is this for." Eric looked helpless.
