Chapter 276: Journey to England
The temperature in London in August is still cool, but the weather is a bit gloomy.
Lu Dongjie left home early in the morning, went to Maqinji Catholic Church, and took Kuang Meiyun over for breakfast.
British meals are notoriously unpalatable, and Lu Dongjie is not in the habit of spending money on unpleasant meals.
"Wow, what a beauty." Lu Xiaomei looked at her from side to side with a smile.
"Stop teasing me, I don't even know how to put on makeup." Kuang Meiyun was a little shy.
"No makeup, just put on some lipstick." Miss Lu winked.
Kuang Meiyun has soft long hair tied with a pink bow. It is very refreshing and looks pretty and cute.
"Everyone is loved by people, and cars are loved by cars." Lu Dongjie smiled and praised without hesitation.
Miss Lu couldn't help laughing, while Kuang Meiyun blushed and her heart beat.
"Brother, make tea." Lu Dongjie waved to the waiter at the tea restaurant.
A pot of delicious tea, several plates of shrimp dumplings, siomai, carrot cake, rice rolls, the three of them ate with gusto.
Being in this tea restaurant in Chinatown, there is no strange discomfort at all in a foreign country.
This is London's Chinatown. Although it is not officially recognized, most of the people here are residents of the New Territories of Hong Kong. The older generation came to make a living during World War II. They hope that when they die, they can return to their hometown with rich clothes and buy land and build a big house.
The new generation of young people from the New Territories, as Hong Kong's industrialization accelerates, has little prospect of development in the New Territories, so they have given up their fields and chosen to travel across the ocean to work in the UK.
Drinking the authentic morning tea, people coming and going speaking Cantonese, here, I feel like I have never left Hong Kong.
"Meiyun, did you sleep well yesterday?" Lu Xiaomei was a little excited and pulled her arm.
"After flying for more than ten hours, I felt dizzy and almost couldn't sleep." Kuang Meiyun shook her head in distress.
"You might as well move in with me." Miss Lu narrowed her eyes and smiled, "The place I live in is very beautiful."
"Our rehearsal time is very tight, and we can't leave the team yet." Kuang Meiyun was a little moved, but still shook her head.
Lu Dongjie continued to eat while listening to the two girls chatting.
Among the three of them, only Lu Xiaomei came out to play carelessly. She could play as much as she wanted without any burden.
After breakfast, Lu Dongjie took his two sisters and went out with a tourist map and guide. In fact, there was no need for a tour guide.
After all, when Hong Kong people come to the UK now, they usually go to Piccadilly Circus for a walk, then go to Big Ben, have a look at the Houses of Parliament, and finally sit in Hyde Park. These places
If you turn around, you will have been to the UK.
Although the scenery in the UK is the same, it does have some advantages. It is not like Hong Kong, which has many people and cars, crowded people and traffic jams.
Lu Dongjie's left and right arms were each held by a little Oriental beauty, and he was walking on the street, making many foreign devils envious.
But this time, Lu Dongjie played many roles, including bodyguard, photographer and bill payer.
The two girls discovered a lot of new and interesting things, and of course they also had strange requests.
For example, Lu Xiaomei asked Lu Dongjie to take her to ride the subway. This made Lu Dongjie a little bit dumbfounded. What is there to take in the subway? It is not a roller coaster.
Although the Hong Kong Metro is still under construction, and there are strikes and labor disputes from time to time, but if nothing unexpected happens, it should be open to traffic in two years. By then, you can sit on it until you vomit.
But Kuang Meiyun also looked eager to give it a try. If there was a vote, it would be two to one, even if Lu Dongjie refused to agree.
The two little girls were like two happy birds, making Lu Dongjie jump for joy, asking questions here and there.
Lu Dongjie took the two of them back and forth on the subway for nearly an hour.
Lu Dongjie thought it was a silly behavior, but the two of them enjoyed it. After all, the two girls had never even taken a train.
Lu Dongjie finally returned to the ground and couldn't help but take a breath of fresh air. After all, the air below was too turbid.
The two young girls quickly urged Lu Dongjie to find a small shop and cafe to rest, replenish energy, and then continue to the next stop.
Lu Dongjie took a cup of frozen honey mint tea from the waitress, took a sip, and felt comfortable all over. He put two cushions on his back, then lay down halfway on the wicker chair and stretched his legs comfortably. .
"Hey, big brother." Lu Xiaomei gently kicked him under the stage.
"Huh?" Lu Dongjie opened his eyes and looked at her, "What's wrong?".
"Look over there?" Lu Xiaomei secretly winked at him.
Lu Dongjie glanced at them pretending to be casual, and found that they were several young guys, dressed in an obvious punk style. They seemed to be discussing something, with expressions of hesitation and frustration, and glanced over from time to time.
"Brother Dong, do you think they recognized you?" Kuang Meiyun leaned closer and asked softly.
"Hehe, the eldest brother is not Alan Dillon. Who would recognize him?" Miss Lu asked with a smile.
"Brother Dong is also an internationally famous singer." Kuang Meiyun said seriously.
"When we walked to the road, there was a huge crowd. Do you think anyone recognized him?" Lu Xiaomei smiled narrowly.
Kuang Meiyun has to admit the fact that white people are not very discerning about yellow people, and vice versa.
While the two girls were biting their ears, several young men over there had finished their discussion, seemed to have reached an agreement, and sent a handsome young man with golden hair to say hello.
"Sorry, I'm Blair from the band Flict. Are you Mr. Lu?" The young man seemed polite.
"It's me, what's the matter with you?" Lu Dongjie said with a smile.
"Our band has an important performance tonight, but one of the band members had a conflict with us and left. Can I invite you to be our lead singer and pianist temporarily?" Blair invited sincerely.
"May I venture to ask, why are your friends having conflicts?" Lu Dongjie looked at her with a smile.
"He is an Irishman, and he...he did not agree with our ideas, so he quit." Blair said somewhat sarcastically.
"Brother, is there anything fun you can do?" Lu Xiaomei asked, shaking his arm.
Although she could only understand half a sentence in English, she felt that something interesting was coming.
Kuang Meiyun understood what he was saying, and she looked at him curiously, vaguely expecting something in her heart.
"Sir, please help us, this performance tonight is very important to us." Blair pleaded again.
"I don't know many English songs. Are you sure you want to invite me?" Lu Dongjie looked at him with a smile.
"Tell us the name of the song and just rehearse it twice in advance." Blair waved his hand hurriedly.
"Aren't you afraid that such hasty cooperation will affect you?" Lu Dongjie was a little curious.
"No problem, as long as our band's name appears on the stage tonight, it's enough for us." Blair confessed.
"I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation tonight!" Lu Dongjie smiled and extended his hand.
"Thank you so much." Blair shook hands with him excitedly.
