Chapter 245: Friends and Family (Part 3)
The food delivered in the middle of the night was naturally not as varied as what was meticulously prepared by a five-star hotel, but it could still be called sumptuous. Various foods were steaming hot, but since it was served so quickly, it was probably not freshly made.
"Thank you for your trouble," Luo Quan said with a smile to thank the maid.
"Miss, you are too polite. If there is nothing else, I will go down first. If you have any other needs later, just call me with the communicator," the maid said with lowered eyes, then turned and went out, gently closing the door.
Luo Quan stuffed a fragrant egg tart into her mouth with joy: "This life, it's just missing being fed and clothed."
While eating, she took out her phone. It was just past one o'clock London time, and it should be past nine o'clock in China.
Looking at the hot search, she saw several hot searches related to "Chuang Shao" at a glance.
After six episodes, this program has become a hit variety show in the whole country and even most of East Asia.
From Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore to Japan and even South Korea, it has gained a considerable amount of views and attention.
On the one hand, the quality of the trainees this time is the best among all the talent shows in China. On the other hand, the looks of several popular trainees this time far exceed many popular Korean girl groups that have already debuted.
Pretty girls are easily sought after by the public in any country, not to mention "Chuang Shao," where beauties gather. Now the top eight on the vote list are all existences that can serve as the visual center in a girl group.
It is foreseeable that when these people finally debut with Wen Xia, a truly perfect-looking group will sweep across Asia.
After paying attention to the recent situation of "Chuang Shao," Luo Quan searched for her own.
Her name could no longer be seen on the list, but after searching for her name, she could still see a hot search from last night, which was the one that went up after her livestream yesterday:
"Luo Quan's younger siblings."
The comment section was nothing more than various praises and confessions, and it was also a large-scale meeting scene for Taobao members.
Luo Quan looked at a few comments and laughed it off.
After eating and drinking enough, the blood gradually circulated to the stomach, and sleepiness gradually struck. Luo Quan put down her phone and continued to sleep.
She didn't sleep too long for the second sleep, and got up before seven o'clock. A few rays of early morning sunlight shone through the window lattice, just slanting on Luo Quan's face.
Luo Quan got up and pulled all the curtains open, seeing the end of the horizon, where the half-rising morning sun was spraying red light.
That's the good thing about the countryside; you can see the beautiful scenery of sunrise and sunset without obstruction.
Of course, it's fine to see this kind of beautiful scenery occasionally; she prefers to sleep until she wakes up naturally.
Today, this natural awakening came earlier than usual. Luo Quan washed up and went downstairs, came to the dining room according to her memory, and saw a pile of sandwiches and milk on the table. She didn't know if it was prepared for the masters or the servants. She took one of each and finished eating quickly.
After eating, she looked around and was still wondering in her heart: "Why is it like being a thief when eating at home?"
Thinking about it, it's really funny.
Walking out of the castle gate, the servants were checking the decorations for today's party on the manor's open space.
The guests would arrive in a few hours, so they were checking for any omissions.
Luo Quan didn't disturb their work, but walked alone through the avenues covered with gardening on both sides and walked out of the manor.
In the private messages on Bilibili, many fans wanted her to film the endless violet flower garden she mentioned before.
Taking advantage of her free time, Luo Quan walked out on foot and filmed a video with her phone.
She is not a professional photographer, and the pixels filmed by the phone are actually not particularly good, so the filmed video is far less shocking than what she saw on the spot.
After filming a circle, she turned her head and filmed the towering castle behind her, and while filming, she dubbed: "This is my grandfather's manor. I've been here for two days, and I've only been to the back garden and the bedroom. I haven't seen many places in the castle yet.
As for this violet flower garden, just this side facing the castle is hundreds of acres, and there is a cherry forest further out. I don't know how big it is.
In addition, I heard my father say that after crossing the hill behind the castle, there is a very well-preserved primitive forest. It is said that there is a spruce tree that has lived for thousands of years, tens of meters high, and our family of more than ten people can't hold it in a circle.
In addition, these old people of the Albert family are also buried in that forest after they pass away."
As Luo Quan spoke, she talked about the history of the Albert family.
Some of these things were heard from her father, and some were seen in a book called "History of the Albert Family" on the bookshelf in the room.
If you want to explain the history of a long-standing family, time is definitely not enough. Luo Quan picked interesting things to say and talked for more than ten minutes.
Happily pressing the stop button, she thought that the video volume for this week was finished.
There is no need for much editing, and Luo Quan sent it directly to Bilibili.
With a dry mouth, she prepared to return to the manor to drink some water. After walking halfway, a bell sound came from behind.
Luo Quan turned her head to look, and it was actually a carriage pulled by two red horses. A coachman in a black suit and a top hat sat on the carriage, as if he had traveled from London hundreds of years ago.
This retro dress made Luo Quan laugh. She hurriedly moved to the side of the road, and the carriage stopped under the control of the coachman.
A head poked out of the carriage. It was an old man also wearing a top hat, with white hair and beard, but his eyes were quite energetic.
"Randolph, have we arrived in a fairy tale world?" The old gentleman asked the coachman with a smile.
This person is quite humorous. Luo Quan smiled and said: "Old gentleman, you go first."
The old gentleman said: "In the UK, it has always been ladies first, but a true gentleman usually invites a lady to get on his carriage."
In this situation, for some reason, Luo Quan suddenly remembered a famous saying: "I would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle."
Grandfather's manor is so big, it really should be equipped with a few bicycles.
As for the BMW of the old gentleman in front of her, she still wouldn't get on it.
"No trouble, I'm young, just walk a few more steps. You go first."
"Forgive my presumption, I think you look very familiar. This nose and eyes remind me of an old friend of mine."
Luo Quan explained: "The owner of this manor is my grandfather."
"Charles, that old..." The old gentleman didn't finish his sentence. It would be too rude to call someone an old guy in front of their descendants.
"I haven't heard that Charles has such a big granddaughter... Whose daughter are you? Eve or Erwin?"
Luo Quan thought for a while and said: "Uh... in fact, my father's name is Eric. You may have only heard that my father has a son. In short, things are more complicated to explain."
"I probably understand." The old gentleman knew that Charles's eldest son was a prodigal son who was more romantic than the French. The one in front of him was mostly the romantic debt owed by Eric when he was wandering around.
"Are you really not getting on the carriage together?" The old gentleman repeated again.
Luo Quan laughed: "You go first. Walking in the morning is also considered exercise."
The kindness was rejected, and the old gentleman got into the carriage. The coachman, who had been expressionless throughout, raised the long whip in his hand, and with a crisp "pop," the carriage immediately continued to move forward.
When Luo Quan returned to the manor, it was already more than ten minutes later.
The old gentleman was already sitting side by side with grandfather in the courtyard, and it seemed that they had been talking for a while.
Luo Quan walked over: "Good morning, grandfather."
"Where did you go so early in the morning?" The old man saw his granddaughter coming in from outside the manor and asked curiously.
"I got up early today, went out for a walk, and met this old gentleman when I came back."
"This is your eldest son's daughter, right? How old is she this year?" The old gentleman asked Charles.
"Why? Brighton, what do you want to ask this for? Don't tell me you want to help your grandson hit on my granddaughter?"
Once this matter was mentioned, the old man seemed to have endless energy.
Luo Quan was numb on the side, knowing that her grandfather's old problem of being a matchmaker had committed again.
Brighton waved his hand and laughed: "Forget it, what era is it now, still doing this arranged marriage? Young people now advocate free love. Let's old guys stop meddling."
"Old man, you are still reasonable." Luo Quan walked to the side, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of flower tea, and respectfully handed it to Brighton.
"So I'm just being unreasonable?" The old man saw this scene, his beard blew, and his tone was very unhappy.
"Grandfather is also very reasonable." Luo Quan smiled and poured a cup of flower tea for the old man, who then showed a smile.
It is said that when old people are old, their temperament is sometimes like a child.
Luo Quan didn't know before, but now it seems that this is really the case.
The old man took a sip and said: "My granddaughter just turned nineteen a while ago. Now she is studying in China and working in the music industry."
"Why study in China?" Brighton was very puzzled.
Luo Quan was completely white, and the English she spoke was also a local London accent, so Brighton didn't associate her with China at all.
Luo Quan explained: "My mother is Chinese, I grew up in China since I was a child, and my nationality is also Chinese."
Now Brighton understood. It turned out that Eric owed a romantic debt in China. Looking closely, the girl's eyes were dark brown, which was indeed a facial feature of East Asians.
"By the way, your grandfather just said that you are also working in the music industry? Do you play the violin or the piano?"
In his eyes, these two instruments are the two most high-end instruments, so he subconsciously thought that Luo Quan was a performer.
"Neither, I am a singer, to be precise, a pop singer."
Brighton nodded, thoughtful: "Pop singer... as long as it's not a rock singer, that thing is too noisy. My grandson likes to listen to those songs, and he tinkers with these in his room every day, and the sound is quite loud."
At this point, there was basically no common language.
Like these old people, the music they listen to is probably classical music, and they must not be interested in pop music.
Although she can also play the violin and piano, there is no need to show off, which would be too deliberate.
After standing for a while, Luo Quan went back to her room.
After wandering outside for nearly an hour, the whole family was still sleeping when she came back, but Seifert was awake.
Yesterday he stayed in the room to deal with the contract terms of Leon's filming, and he didn't come down during the family dinner.
"I heard that you fell down after one glass of wine yesterday?" As soon as they met, Seifert talked about Luo Quan's embarrassing things.
Luo Quan used a smile to ease the embarrassment: "It's not a bad thing, at least it let me know that I can't touch alcohol in the future. Fortunately, I got drunk at home."
"By the way, Director Kanason just finished dealing with the contract with me and asked me to tell you that your supporting role has been decided. He sent you a message, but I don't know why you didn't reply to him."
"He sent me a message?" Luo Quan was shocked. There were dozens of messages in the message bar of her phone when she got up this morning. Luo Quan clicked the circle cross directly and cleared them all. She didn't expect to miss such an important thing.
Opening Twitter, she found that there was indeed an unread message from Director Kanason, so she hurriedly replied.
"By the way, when will "Titanic" be filmed? Has the heroine been decided?" After replying, Luo Quan asked curiously.
Seifert nodded: "It's basically decided. It's a young American female star, the winner of the 8th All-American Internet Meat Bomb Goddess, known as the walking hormone!
How about it, is this title more powerful than yours?"
"Is your attention on this?" Luo Quan was speechless, then whispered: "What's her name? Are there any photos?"
Seifert was between laughter and tears: "You like this?"
Luo Quan hurriedly explained: "Don't think too much, there is a saying in China that everyone has a love for beauty. I just simply want to see how tempting this walking hormone is."
"This one was the world's most beautiful last year, named Kalilien Mannensu. I don't know why she withdrew from the world's most beautiful selection this year, otherwise you really might not be able to compete with her.
In the United States, she can be said to be the best ideal partner for countless men!" Seifert said, opening his phone, and the desktop was Kalilien's portrait.
Her looks are definitely not as good as Luo Quan's, but she is also a stunning beauty.
It's mainly that figure, which is simply a flood beast.
Although Luo Quan's is the golden ratio, it's actually just like that. Some things are not better if they are average. Some things are big and some are warped enough to be tempting.
In terms of figure, Luo Quan, this green melon egg, was completely exploded by this former world's most beautiful.
"The figure is indeed very good." Luo Quan nodded and praised.
Hearing the name, she connected to a female star who had passed away in the United States in her previous life.
That was also called a sexy goddess, but the faces of the two were completely different. It was probably just a beautiful coincidence.
