Chapter 74 Noble Invitation Umbrella

After staying in Paris for two days, Zhou Yi spent most of his time with his family and two female friends, Ororo.

He accompanied these people who were of great importance in his life and browsed the streets and alleys of Paris and various scenic spots in the past two days.

Zhou Yi, who has difficulty having the opportunity to accompany his family and girlfriend, wants to make up for what he owes them as much as possible in these two days. Over the years, he has been preparing for his future enemies. Although he has created a very generous environment for his family, he has also paid a certain price. He has really not had much time to accompany his family.

Moreover, Zhou Yi actually felt a little guilty about the two female friends Oro Roll and Cingray. Because of the differences in their identities, Zhou Yi basically could not take them to attend some formal high-standard banquets, let alone have a formal title.

Ororo also knew about this. So after dating Zhou Yi for so many years, she never formally confirmed her relationship with Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi mentioned this kind of thing, but Ororo did not agree. Because she knew that her identity did not help Zhou Yi's career, but was a kind of obstacle.

She is a smart and self-reliant woman and is not willing to become a vassal of Zhou Yi. Therefore, this ambiguous identity once made her alienate from Zhou Yi. If it weren't for Zhou Yi's persistence, it would be difficult for them to reach this point.

As for Qin Grey, her identity was even more embarrassing. The situation between him and Zhou Yi has always been in a dominant position. It can be said that it was Zhou Yi seducing her to step by step towards the darkness in his heart. However, she was a little happy.

It was not that Qin Grey had thought of occupying the most important position around Zhou Yi. However, her deep guilt towards Ororo and Scott made her dare not take any action. For this reason, she could only let Zhou Yi do it. Similarly, because of this, she could share her guilt more on Zhou Yi.

The relationship between men and women is so complicated that Zhou Yi can't let go. He enjoys this feeling very much, but he is even more reluctant to let go of them. He has not given them much, but he wants to give them the best.

Just like his plan, in some ways it is for them. Because this is their lifelong wish to walk openly in the sun.

It was another fun trip. Zhou Yi returned from the famous Louvre with two beauties, his clingy sister and a group of his followers. Qin Grey is an expert in appreciating art. But even guys like Ororo and Xia Ruisi who have no artistic cells will praise these art treasures that are treasured in it.

Those gorgeous works of art from all over the world that embody the essence of ancient human thoughts will be admired by any creature with aesthetic ability.

Seeing Xia Ruisi and her little sisters still chatting about ancient legends from Egypt, Ororo was still asking Qin Grey for the identification and classification methods of gorgeous Chinese porcelain. Zhou Yi stretched comfortably. If possible, he really hoped that such time would be able to stop. However, such a willingness was basically impossible to achieve.

A well-dressed gentleman appeared in front of Zhou Yi and respectfully handed a invitation to Zhou Yi. At the same time, he spoke in an ancient accent in English.

"Hello, dear Mr. Zhou. I am the butler of the Yashiford family. I heard that you are coming to Paris. My host is very happy and hopes to invite you at the banquet held at Yashiford Manor tomorrow night!"

"Asceford family, I remember you were old nobles in Britain, how did you come to Paris?" Zhou Yi was not very impressed with the Aceford family, but there was still some point. It was a big family that originated in the UK, and it was even once glorious during the Victorian period. However, after that, the population gradually withered.

The previous generation head of the Yashiford family was a biology genius and jointly opened a huge multinational pharmaceutical company with several like-minded people. It gradually developed the company to a huge scale.

This company, called Umbrella, is now a giant in biological research, pharmaceutical production, medical hardware, and defense industry. It can be said to be the top giant in Europe, and even once extended its tentacles to the United States on the other side of the ocean.

But the local industry in America is very resistant to such foreign rivals. So far, the company's tentacles are only staying in remote areas of the Midwest, and they cannot access the core areas occupied by Stark Industry and Osborne Industry.

As the Umbrella Company grew, the Yashiford family gradually declined. The previous generation of heads disappeared for no reason. The head of this generation of family Alfred Yashiford Zhou Yi had seen him. He was a poor man who was overwhelmed by the current rulers of Umbrella Company. Although the outside world has always boasted that his IQ is at the top of humanity, Zhou Yi does not think it has any use. You should know that this world is not something that can be played with with high IQ.

However, the decline of the nobles are also nobles, and the energy of the Yashiford family cannot be underestimated. Zhou Yi did not want to offend such a local big shot for no reason, as that would be no good for his mother who had been in Europe for many years. So Zhou Yi was just a little confused and nodded and said.

"I understand, I will tell Mr. Alfred for me, thank him for his invitation, and I will be there on time."

The housekeeper, who left an invitation, looked very gentlemanly, bowed and left. After he left, someone asked a question.

"Is it someone you are familiar with?"

Seeing that Ororo was talking, Zhou Yi smiled and shook his head.

"It's just a matter of knowing people, but even if you don't know people in the business world, they can bow their heads and invite them as long as there is a benefit! It seems that Alfred or the Umbrella company behind him seems to need my help."

"Is it the largest medical company in Europe? What do they ask you for?" asked Cingray, who has heard of the company. "They focus on medical and biological research, and it doesn't seem to have any intersection with your industry."

"Who knows, maybe there is something wrong with their industrial chain." Shurang, Zhou Yi said that he didn't know the situation. "I guess they were interested in the working capital in my hand."

"You have to be careful. I always feel that there is nothing good for them to look for you?" Ororo was a little worried. She didn't know the purpose of these so-called businessmen, but the nature of a woman made her feel that there must be some conspiracy in it.

"Ororo, don't pay attention to them." Qin Grale pulled Orroro and said teasingly. She didn't want her friends to get too much into these dark things. So she could only stop the topic. "They are like sharks, and they will swim immediately when they smell a little fishy smell."

"That's right!" He directly agreed with Qin Grey's statement, and Zhou Yi calmly admitted her name. "We are indeed sharks, otherwise how could we become the top of the marine life chain."

"Sharks are vicious creatures that they will not let go of even their kind!" Ororo warned that she has always had some complaints about these large companies that study biology, because many of them have more or less used mutants for experiments in shameful industries.

"I know, I will be careful." Zhou Yi patted Ororo's back of his hand and comforted her. "Don't worry, I'm not such a stupid guy. Besides, my identity is not something that a declining family can easily get involved."

Although his words were a bit exaggerated, they were not too out of reality. Since the former head of the family, the Yasse Ford family had left the core level of Umbrella Company, and was only responsible for some of the peripheral research and departments. In Alfred's generation, even these things could not be saved. Except for a research room in Antarctica, he only had part of the power of Umbrella's security department.

Such an Asia Ford family did not shake Zhou Yi's power. Zhou Yi is the core senior executive of two giant companies after all. The strength of these two companies is even above Umbrella.

After giving Zhou Yi a blank look, Ororo no longer worries about him in such a place. After all, she still has some barriers between him, and this distance limits her from not being able to bear everything with him.

With a slight smile, Zhou Yi's hand under the table quietly pinched Qin Grey. Qin Grey was frightened and quickly broke free from his palm. While Ororo was not paying attention, he glared at him in shame and angrily.

Zhou Yi, who had already reached a certain level of thick skin, directly ignored the eye attack from Qin Grey. He set up his chin as if nothing had happened and said to the two ladies.

"Tomorrow's banquet. Ororo, would you like to be my female companion and accompany me to the banquet?"

Ororo thought about it for a while and shook his head silently.

"Sorry, Yi! You know, I'm not suitable for this kind of occasion. So you'd better find someone else to accompany you."

Zhou Yi just turned his gaze to Qin Grey, and the woman who was already scared by Zhou Yi's little movement just now said unceremoniously.

"Don't even think about it. I won't be your female companion and go to such parties."

"Okay!" Zhou Yi shrugged. "It seems that I can only appear alone at the Yashiford banquet tomorrow."

"Yi, let me accompany you. I have never seen what a noble party looks like?" Xia Ruisi, who had been holding her ears and eavesdropping on another table, leaning over her head and said to Zhou Yi in a flattering manner.

Zhou Yi held down the beret on her head, squinted his eyes and said, "Unless I die, my dear, don't think you can have a penny relationship with such a messy banquet before you are eighteen."

"Why can't?" Xia Ruisi waved her fist angrily. "You annoying guy, don't think you are my brother, you can deprive me of my right to freedom."

"When you ask for pocket money from me, you have already paid the price with your freedom. My dear sister." Zhou Yi expressed the value of freedom disdainfully. "Do you think there is anything good in this kind of nobles? Let me tell you. Half of the nobles nowadays are homosexual, and most of them are men. Some of the remaining ones are not as good as these true love patients. Why, are you satisfied with me saying this?"

"It's so disgusting, you guy." Shaking his hand in disgust, Xia Ruisi said. "I'm still eating desserts. Can you not say such an upsetting thing?"

"You came to the gun by yourself. Dear!"

He stuffed a large piece of cake into his mouth, and Xia Ruisi's green eyes showed a weird look.
