The Return of the Reborn King

Chapter 269: Premeditated (2)
After the servants were surprised, they quickly performed their duties and returned to their posts quickly. After the housekeeper arranged Yunxi and their rooms, dinner was already prepared on the entire dining table.

"After flying for such a long time today, everyone is probably very tired. Why don't you go to bed early at night, and let's go shopping around tomorrow." Zhan Wenlan personally opened the chairs for Yunxi and the three ladies, and then talked with Leng, JOSEN sat down together, picked up the goblet, and gently raised it in the air: "CHEERS!"

"CHEERS!" Several people laughed and raised their glasses in the same way, took a sip, and started dinner.

If it was said that when I first saw this manor, I was still shocked by its exquisiteness and vast land, then when I took the first steak, Leng's asset assessment of Zhan Wenlan went up to a new level.

As the saying goes: "A good cook is hard to find."

In such a private manor, Zhan Wenlan doesn't come all year round, but he can still keep such an extraordinary chef. I'm afraid the fee is really amazing.

Not to mention, maintaining such an old house that looks at least [-] years old is a matter of burning money.

He shook his head. He really couldn't think of what kind of livelihood the Zhan family, who occupied the title of commander of the military region in Nanjing, would be able to keep such a property.Although he always thought that Zhan Wenlan was more reliable than Qi Zhan before, he never thought that there were such things behind him.

Although the doubt in his eyes was not obvious, the rest of them almost thought of going together.

Except for Yunxi, the rest of them have lived abroad all year round, so they are naturally more aware of the differences in income and consumption at home and abroad. Judging from Zhan Wenlan's attitude, this property may not be the most valuable place for him, and he can't bear to think about it. I can't help but be dumbfounded.What the commander of the Zhan family can do is not going smoothly. Now the situation at home and abroad seems to be calm, but in fact there are hidden waves. Where did the Zhan family get the spare money?

"This is a bet I won back in Las Vegas when I was 20 years old." Seemingly seeing the doubts in everyone's eyes, Zhan Wenlan explained calmly while cooking the steak: "So it was going to be resold." Later, I felt that the scenery here is good, the location is good, and I may stay here for a long time, so I stayed." The words are simple, but the meaning is clear, this Zhuangzi is his personal property, and has nothing to do with the Zhan family or his father .After he finished speaking, he glanced at Yunxi thoughtfully, as if he was paying attention to her reaction.

Yunxi's hand holding the knife and fork always seemed to feel a slight ups and downs in his voice when he mentioned "the location is good, maybe he will stay for a long time". When he looked up, he happened to meet his direct looking eyes.

Mr. X, who is well-known in the UK, would really be sorry for his reputation if he couldn't even afford a decent resort.

Yunxi knew that he didn't want to reveal his identity in front of others, so he only said that this place was won at the gambling table, so he didn't say a word.

It's just that the eyes of the other few people are so sharp that they can see the disapproval in Yunxi's eyes at a glance. This kind of disapproval is not the kind of pretentiousness that looks down on nouveau riche. .

For a moment, several people had some speculations in their hearts, perhaps Yunxi and this Zhan Wenlan were in contact more frequently than they imagined.

Maybe, Leng Yunxi even has a clear idea of ​​Zhan Wenlan's net worth.

When Leng Qiaoshu heard that the person he had a crush on had such amazing wealth, he was naturally happier than anyone else, but seeing Yunxi's look that he knew it well, the sour water in his stomach could not be stopped no matter what live.Fortunately, she still knows how to look at people. Seeing that the eldest sister has been giving her winks, she still suppresses her temper and eats dinner seemingly dignifiedly.

After dinner, several people went back to their rooms, washed and brushed themselves, and got ready to go to bed.

JOSEN stayed in Leng Yuqiu's room to talk to her. Before he could say a few words, there was a knock on the door.

He opened the door and saw that it was his fiancée's second sister, so he smiled politely, turned back to Leng Yuqiu and said, "I still have a call to make, so I won't disturb your two sisters' chat. Remember, don't chat too late, save me I will not be energetic tomorrow."

Leng Yuqiu nodded meekly, welcomed Leng Qiaoshu into the door, kissed him on the cheek, and closed the door.

"Sister, what did you find when you were eating just now? Why didn't you let me talk?" Although Leng Qiaoshu was used to being arrogant and indulgent since she was a child, in front of this hall sister who has been living independently abroad and earned a doctorate I can't hold back the scene.It seems that from the very beginning, she has always acted like a baby in front of her eldest sister. After so many years, the family has gotten used to it. Her parents can't control her, but her eldest sister can immediately look at her with just a wink. Let her stop.

"I promised you to invite Zhan Wenlan to the banquet, not to see you as a little woman." Leng Yuqiu turned her face away in disgust, as if she was too lazy to watch her acting coquettishly: "The old man heard that Both you and Yunxi have contacts with Zhan Wenlan, and you are not very happy in your heart. Let me help you find out more, so as not to cause any trouble. If you have a clearer mind, you will use your best skills during this vacation. If you can really do it It's your ability to make Zhan Wenlan fall in love with you, if you don't have this ability, give me a break!"

Leng Qiaoshu was taken aback, the smug smile on his face froze in the distance.

It's not that she made a big fuss, it's that she and the old man are not very close.What's more, the grandfather of the family has always been ruthless towards Yunxi. Didn't the only grandson in the family speak nicely in front of Leng Yunxi? Even more pampered.

The old man actually allowed her to pry the corner of Yunxi's wall?

Leng Qiaoshu almost suspected that she had heard wrongly.

Seeing her stupid look, Leng Yuqiu couldn't help but nodded her head, with a look of "how stupid are you": "The old man obviously likes this kid from the Zhan family, Yunxi can't tell from his attitude now, he Turning a blind eye to you is just to see if Zhan Wenlan can never change his mind about Yunxi. If he changes his mind, he will have no fate with Yunxi. It's not bad for you to marry him. If he is determined, it must be Yunxi. This Grandson-in-law, he is also happy to settle down early."

That's what she said, but she hasn't said it yet.Based on her speculation about the old man's mentality, she is afraid that this second sister is used as a "beauty trick". It is best for Zhan Wenlan to pass the test. The two families are family friends. It's not bad.At least, the Zhan family will protect Second Sister's domineering temperament, and nothing will happen in the future.

However, for the two granddaughters, it is self-evident which is more important.

Fortunately, she grew up abroad since she was a child, and she was not too close to the old man at home, otherwise, her heart would be so cold.

Leng Qiaoshu was taken aback for a moment, and her mind turned around. Although she cared about it in her heart, at least the old man gave her a chance to fight, and she still had a chance of winning. After humming twice, she said, "I understand, Sister, don't worry, I will be more considerate in what I say and do in the future, and if I really get married with Wen Lan, I will definitely give you a big red envelope."
