Wall Street Legend

Chapter 154 What? (twenty three)

I originally planned to spend two days in Paris, and then directly ask Miss Mahi to go to New York with me. However, her part-time job has not been settled yet. She was busy with Ye Dongqing and wasted time, so she can only talk about it next time.

I was quite satisfied with my trip to Paris. In fact, it was nothing more than eating and drinking, strolling around the Champs Elysées, Place de la Concorde, the Arc de Triomphe, etc., and also took a walk around the Louvre. Maxi accompanied Ye Dongqing throughout the whole trip. Therefore, it was difficult for him to find any dissatisfaction, and he left when he felt it was time to leave. It was the morning of the third day after arriving in Paris.

Just like friends, nothing happened, which made Ye Dongqing very satisfied.

For him, a playboy, he finally no longer gets close to someone out of some physical impulse. It is rare to have the idea of ​​​​entering into deeper communication, mentally, and no longer limited to the physical. After all, it was a relatively good progress. In his opinion, this is how a serious relationship should be, developing slowly like others.

Well, love life is indeed a mess.

I learned from the girl that Laura already knew about her coming to Europe. The speaker was unintentional but the listener was intentional. Ye Dongqing felt that she should go to London for reasons and reasons, otherwise she would look like a scumbag. In fact, Now he also feels that his actions are very unkind.

In order to avoid messing everything up, I only told Miss Mahi that I was going back to New York. In fact, I went directly to the train station and took the Star of Hope train across the Channel to London.

There's no way to tell the truth about this. You can't tell Marcy, "Hey, I'm going to London to meet another beautiful girl."

Until he followed his heart and made a choice, he thought it was the best choice, or it might be the beginning of a mess.

It took a few hours to get from Paris to London, and it felt much more comfortable than taking a plane because I didn't have to worry about the plane diving into the Atlantic Ocean.

As soon as I arrived at St. Pancras Station, I called Laura and asked her where she lived recently. After getting the address, I took a taxi and rushed there. Although London and Paris are not far apart, they are both different in terms of humanities and urban style. Not a small difference.

The driver is a traditional old gentleman. Even when driving a taxi, he never forgets to wear a formal suit. His tie is neater than Ye Dongqing's. His accent is full of British flavor, slow and clear.

There was no thought of small talk. Ye Dongqing had been to London many times. He had been to famous London attractions such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and the Houses of Parliament, so he took the time to call Mr. Alfred to discuss some business matters. A few days ago, two companies, Nike and Nestle respectively, wanted to advertise through Facebook, and he needed to make a decision on the price.

Advertising has already begun, and other Internet companies have also entered the profit stage one after another, each with their own methods of generating revenue. It is normal for Facebook to start advertising, and the number is small, so users do not feel disgusted.

Compared with the Tamsui Investment Group, which is enjoying smooth sailing, he has recently paid more attention to the development of Facebook. Now it has more registered users. Even if it accepts financing at a valuation of US$250 million, it is estimated that it can attract individuals or institutions willing to spend money. The initial stage is pretty good, and it is worthy of Ye Dongqing to manage it carefully.

The hotel Laura stayed in recently was too ordinary. There was even an aunt bathing the dog in the yard. It was a mess everywhere, except for the location, which was not bad, in the city center.

Her income was limited, and she had to set aside some money to pay for college tuition and daily expenses, which left insufficient funds to spend on rent. Ye Dongqing couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw Laura getting angry.

He looked around at this room with only one bed and a small kitchen, and said, "I'm not asking you for rent. It's because the jacuzzi is not comfortable enough, or the location of Puchuan Building is too bad, so you would rather choose You’re staying here and you’re not going back to my house? Didn’t you say you were here to meet a friend? Didn’t she entertain you?”

It could be seen that Laura was in a bad mood. The wine bottle was still on the dining table. Standing by the window and looking out, she could just see the messy big yard below. There was a construction work going on upstairs, and dust fell from the ceiling.

She wanted to say something angry, but Laura was quite afraid of Ye Dongqing. She didn’t know why, so she lowered her head and replied: “That’s your house. My friend and I had a falling out. I’m looking for a job recently. I moved into the dormitory when the school started. My ACT score is almost enough to apply to Cambridge or Oxford. If not, I can also apply to the University of St. Andrews or Durham University."

Ye Dongqing nodded and continued: "Come on, accompany me to the street for lunch. I guess you have nothing to eat here, so how are you doing in London?"

Laura glared at him, feeling that this hateful guy who was getting richer and richer must be gloating about how he was doing, couldn't he tell by looking at this house? Of course it's terrible, there's not even a separate bathroom!

In the end, he went to have lunch, mashed potatoes, two slices of bread, hot dog and bacon, and a small portion of French fries on the plate. Ye Dongqing didn't say anything about his trip to Paris, and chatted with Laura wordlessly. , knowing her for such a long time was enough for him to see clearly this girl's weird character of being independent and submissive. For example, after returning to London, her own life was terrible and she was not able to live alone.

So when they went shopping next, Ye Dongqing took a taxi and asked the driver to take her to the largest real estate agency in London. They specifically asked them to buy a house near the Thames River, where the London Eye can be seen across the street, and not far from where the Shard will be located in the future. The apartment was not too big, and the decoration was very unique. It was more than 170 square meters and cost nearly three million pounds. He gave it to Laura directly with a wave of his hand, without giving her any chance to refuse.

He has never been stingy about spending money on women. After all, she has lived with him for so long. Ye Dongqing hopes that she can live a better life and not squeeze into the poor house. Even if Laura doesn't mind, he himself feels uncomfortable. Since If you want to live in the UK, buying a property is nothing. In the future, District 1 will still be the heart of London.

The Shard has not yet started construction, and will not start until a few years later. In the future, the neighborhood will be even better, and the property value will probably increase.

Laura had been confused. She couldn't say she was happy or humiliated, but she just couldn't figure out his attitude.

You can see the London Eye from the window. To be precise, it's a small half of the London Eye Ferris wheel. The other half is blocked. You have to go to the living room to see it. No one would not like living in a place like this.

However, someone suddenly gave her such a house, and Laura always felt uncomfortable. She thought that she should at least ask herself what she meant first, instead of just taking her passport and asking the real estate agency staff to help register the transfer.

He stumbled in and went to bed. At this time, the two of them were lying on the same bed. Laura pushed back the hair covering her eyes and asked him: "So what is our current relationship?"
