Chapter 675: Different circles, no need to force integration
Chapter 675
In the evening, Li Kai took Chen Yang to attend the birthday party of his mentor Max.
Max is a business professor at Columbia University and a graduate tutor in finance.
Both Li Feng and Lauren were his students.
Professor Max is a French-born academic who has considerable attainments in finance and accounting. He also owns companies outside and has a high income. He belongs to the elite class in the United States.
His home is in an affluent area near Columbia University.
"Professor Max, happy birthday."
Lauren and Li Xian handed the gifts they carefully purchased to Max's hands.
"Oh, dear children, it's so nice of you to come."
Professor Max is a kind and kind old man, wearing a pair of glasses and slightly bald.
He kissed Lauren affectionately on the cheek, but when it came to Li Feng, he just hugged her.
When they first met, the little girl told him clearly that Chinese people didn't like this.
So the old man remembers it very clearly.
"Who is this……"
Professor Max's eyes fell on Chen Yang.
"Professor Max, hello, my name is Chen Yang, and I am Li Feng's boyfriend. I apologize for intruding. I would like to give you a small gift to express my feelings."
Chen Yang also took out a gift.
When you come to someone's birthday party, you can't come empty-handed.
He randomly took a gift box from the gift box.
This gift is a men's wallet, also a gift from Chanel.
Although it is a gift, it still costs several hundred dollars.
This old man knew how to measure things, which made him somewhat fond of him.
"Oh, young man, welcome, welcome!"
Professor Max also shook hands with Chen Yang warmly.
Of course he recognizes the Chanel brand.
Of course, with his income, he can afford this brand.
However, this generous young Chinese also left a deep impression on him.
Professor Max's house was very lively. The banquet was attended by not only Professor Max's relatives and friends, but also the surrounding neighbors.
Everyone gathered together in small groups, drank and chatted, and were very happy.
Lauren and Li Kai quickly found their classmates.
She solemnly introduced Chen Yang to her classmates.
Although everyone was a little surprised, they still chatted with Chen Yang enthusiastically.
But what they talked about most was academic issues.
Regarding English, Chen Yang could only understand some simple conversations. He could not understand more profound academic issues and had no interest in them.
It is not a circle and there is no need to force integration.
Chen Yang soon felt the estrangement.
It was still some time before the dance started, so Chen Yang explained to Li Kai and went to the swimming pool to drink alone.
At this moment, Professor Max welcomed two new guests.
It was Ye Rou and Negan.
Negan is Professor Max's student.
Negan has a successful career and is well-known on Wall Street. He is Professor Max's favorite disciple.
Professor Max was very happy about his arrival and solemnly introduced him to his friends. He also told his students that Negan was their senior brother and hoped that they could have more contact with him in the future.
It was the first time for Lauren and others to come into contact with the elites of Wall Street, and they were fellow students from the same school, so naturally they were particularly excited.
Negan has money, status, and a sense of humor, and he quickly became the center of the circle.
Everyone gathered around him and talked to him.
Negan responded with a smile.
But he talked to Li Feng intentionally or unintentionally.
Out of politeness, Li Kai responded wordlessly, but kept looking towards Chen Yang.
Ye Rou frowned, feeling a little unhappy that she had been left out.
Several times she wanted to interrupt and show her presence, but was ignored by the people around her.
In the eyes of these people, she is obviously not as important as Negan.
Ye Rou looked a little ugly and had to leave the circle in depression and came to the swimming pool.
There were actually people at the swimming pool.
Ye Rou was surprised to find that she actually knew him.
"Chen Yang!"
"Miss Ye!"
Chen Yang didn't expect Ye Rou to come over, and was a little surprised for a moment.
"Why are you here?"
Ye Rou was even more surprised than Chen Yang.
The reason why she came to Professor Max today was because of her fiancé, and she was trying to integrate into her fiancé's circle.
"Oh, Professor Max is my friend's mentor."
Chen Yang said calmly.
As for Ye Rou, he doesn't catch a cold very much.
What happened at Ye's house two days ago is still vivid in my mind.
Ye Zihuan, Ye Rou, Ye Yang...
There is no good person in the Ye family.
"What a coincidence, Negan is also a student of Professor Max."
Ye Rou nodded.
Chen Yang looked at Negan in the crowd and quickly understood Ye Rou's feelings.
Again.
The circles are different, so there is no need to force integration.
Even if he was forcibly integrated into it, he would still be a marginal character.
It seems that the Ye family is deliberately trying to enter the circle of Wall Street, but it is not going so smoothly.
"Then why are you here alone?"
Ye Rou asked deliberately.
"Isn't Miss Ye alone?"
Chen Yang said coldly.
Dohana and Ye Zihuan are enemies, so naturally he cannot coexist peacefully with the Ye family.
Coupled with the fact that he was framed by Ye Yang before, is he feeling unhappy?
"I just feel tired and want to be clean for a while."
Ye Rou was a little unhappy.
"Haha, the circles are different. There is no need to force integration. Even if you squeeze in, you are just serving tea and pouring water to catch the impurities. I don't bother to do that."
Chen Yang said something meaningful.
Ye Rou's face changed slightly.
She felt that Chen Yang was connoting the Ye family and her.
However, she also admitted that what Chen Yang said made sense.
The circles are different and cannot be forced to integrate.
Even if she worked hard to get engaged to Negan, what's the use?
After all, people around Negan still treat her as an outsider.
"You are so brave. You dare to spy on the president. If the president hadn't been kind, you would have been severely punished. Even your third uncle wouldn't be able to protect you."
Ye Rou quickly adjusted and thought of words to attack Chen Yang.
This guy actually spoke in a shady manner, and even made insinuations about her?
Ye Rou was naturally a little unhappy.
"Why didn't I enter her room? Why didn't you ask Ye Yang?"
Chen Yang sneered.
hehe……
Ye Rou smiled.
"My younger brother can play tricks on you, but you're like that, and you actually want a woman to rescue you. I'm really curious, what does the third uncle like in you?"
In fact, she also knew that Ye Yang had done something about what happened that night.
But it was destroyed by Lei Jin.
This girl Lei Jin is really kind. She would rather tarnish her reputation than protect Chen Yang.
Ye Rou was a little curious.
Chen Yang turned around suddenly and stared at Ye Rou coldly.
"Why, did I get it right?"
Ye Rou pouted.
The Ye family naturally didn't like the people in Dohana, so it was natural for Ye Yang to take action against Chen Yang.
"Think about how prosperous the Chamber of Commerce was back then. It managed to carve out a niche in a barren land and achieved great dominance. Now, it actually has to sacrifice its beauty to please foreigners. Haha, that's all it takes to make a difference."
Chen Yang said coldly.
To quarrel?
He is professional.
you……
Ye Rou's face darkened and she was about to say something.
By this time the dance had already begun.
Chen Yang put down his wine glass and said, "Miss Ye, please!"
With that said, he walked over.
Damn thing!
Ye Rou gritted her teeth.
The dance party had already begun, and she didn't care to be angry with Chen Yang and hurriedly came to the guests.
…
Today's protagonist is Professor Max. He simply said some blessings, then took his wife's hand and danced an opening dance.
Next, is the busiest time.
The guests also left one after another.
At any time, there are more men than women, and women are quickly invited by men.
Americans are also very relaxed, and husbands and wives may not dance together.
Li Kai was a little anxious and looked around frequently.
She is looking for Chen Yang.
He agreed to be her dance partner, but I don't know where this guy went.
Negan walked over with a smile.
"Li, you are the most charming spirit at this dance. I wonder if I can ask you to dance."
At this moment, Chen Yang and Ye Rou arrived at the venue one after another.
Ye Rou thought that Negan would invite her fiancée to the first dance, but she didn't expect that he would actually invite a young Chinese girl, and her face immediately turned ugly.
Li Kai also saw Chen Yang at this moment, smiled and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Negan, I have a dance partner."
With that said, he excitedly came to Chen Yang and took the initiative to extend an invitation gesture.
Chen Yang also smiled and put his arms around her waist.
The two started dancing on the dance floor.
Negan was a little stunned.
In fact, when he first came in, he fell in love with Li Feng.
This girl is very exquisitely dressed, small and exquisite, with a unique flavor.
Negan took the initiative to invite someone to dance, but unexpectedly he was rejected?
"Negan, why don't you ask me to dance first?"
Ye Rou was a little unhappy.
It seemed that Chen Yang's words just now stimulated her.
"But, you weren't here just now?"
Negan said perfunctorily.
But his eyes were still on Li Kai.
Li Qi gave up his invitation and took the initiative to invite an Asian, which made him a little regretful.
"I'm here now?"
Ye Rouqiang smiled for a while.
"Oh, honey, this is a social occasion, I hope you have a good time."
Negan turned his attention to Lauren again and invited her with a smile.
Lauren was a little surprised, and naturally she didn't refuse Negan's invitation.
Negan hugged Lauren and entered the dance floor, leaving Ye Rou messy in the wind.
asshole!
Ye Rou was already extremely angry.
I don’t know if he was stimulated by Chen Yang or was angered by Negan’s indifference.
At this time, a middle-aged man came over.
"Beautiful lady, can you please dance?"
Ye Rou took a deep breath and said calmly: "I'm sorry, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable. Please excuse me."
For the sake of the Ye family's great cause and her own future, she sharpened her head and squeezed into Wall Street. She even took the initiative to pursue Negan, suppressing her nausea to satisfy some of his special hobbies.
Now that the two are engaged, she thought she had succeeded.
What she didn't expect was...
Negan didn't care about her at all and didn't take her fiancée seriously.
Ye Rou suddenly felt a little sad.
It really echoed what Chen Yang said.
The circles are different, so there is no need to force integration.
After being forced into it, it is just the leftovers for serving tea and pouring water.
What a joke to me!
Ye Rou gave a bitter laugh, picked up the glass and drank it all in one gulp. She only had one thought now, and that was to get drunk.
…
Unlike Ye Rou's place where she drank to drown her sorrows, Chen Yang's place was very warm.
Li Feng is as gentle as a little wife, with tenderness in her eyes.
"Rate, let me ask you a question, don't you like art? Why did you jump to business?"
Chen Yang has always been a little puzzled.
At the beginning, he remembered that Li Kai said personally that she liked art.
Unexpectedly, after coming to the United States, he jumped into business?
"This is the advice Chu Yu gave me."
Li Feng smiled.
When she first came to the United States to study, she really wanted to learn oil painting, but Zhang Chuyu's words made her change her mind.
Zhang Chuyu told her that Chen Yang's family now has a big business, and if Li Feng wants to leave an impression on him, he must learn something that can help him.
painting?
Why are you learning this stuff?
Draw nudes?
It's better to learn something about finance and accounting.
At least I can help Chen Yang in the future.
Li Kai thought about it carefully and thought it made sense, so he chose finance when choosing a subject.
The transition from medicine to finance is not that easy.
Fortunately, this girl has a solid foundation and got used to it quickly.
Zhang Chuyu’s suggestion?
Chen Yang was a little stunned, but he soon understood.
Is this girl really planning for Li's salary?
good!
good!
This bestie can handle it.
"You... don't like it?"
Li Kai asked cautiously.
like!
Chen Yang smiled and said, "I like whatever you do."
Only then did Li Feng feel relieved.
After the dance, everyone dispersed.
Li Kai also held Chen Yang's hand and rested on the sofa.
At this time, a white classmate came forward and said to Li: "Li, can I ask you to dance?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Kai smiled slightly and said: "Giss, you have to ask for my boyfriend's consent."
In the United States, dancing between opposite sexes is just a form of communication.
But this girl was afraid that Chen Yang would be unhappy.
Go for it!
Chen Yang waved his hand.
He hasn't reached that level of feudalism yet.
Besides, since he is Li Kai's classmate, Chen Yang also has to leave some space for Li Kai.
"Hey Chen, can I ask you to dance?"
Lauren came over with a smile.
On this dance floor, Lauren, Li Feng and Ye Rou are young and beautiful, so they are also the focus of men's invitations.
Can!
Chen Yang nodded.
The two also walked onto the dance floor.
Lauren was very enthusiastic and had a hot figure. She wanted to squeeze her whole body against Chen Yang's body.
Chen Yang couldn't bear it and tried his best to distance himself from her.
"Haha, Chen, you are actually shy! Is this your first time dancing with a girl from outside Li?"
Lauren seemed to have discovered something interesting.
Of course not!
Chen Yang smiled.
Lauren is Li's classmate and they live in the same place, so they have a good relationship with her.
He also respects Lauren.
Lauren suddenly leaned into his ear and whispered: "Chen, let me tell you a secret. Negan just asked me about my salary, and he asked me in great detail. I said you were his boyfriend, but he didn't take it seriously.
I think he should have ideas about salary. He is very rich and very humorous...you have to be careful."
Eaters have short mouths, and takers have short hands.
After taking the gift, Lauren naturally turned towards Chen Yang.
Thank you……
Chen Yang nodded, then looked at Negan.
This ghost guy has a fiancée, but he still wants to pay her salary?
