The meals at the banquet were buffet style. Although France is a world-famous food kingdom, their dishes are much poorer compared to China. Especially for this kind of high-end banquet, the dishes served are nothing more than lettuce.
Some pearl tomatoes, radishes, lettuce, etc., cooked foods include bacon, fried meat, etc., and seafood include sashimi, caviar, etc., but those brightly colored small desserts are relatively attractive. However, they are not suitable for the venue.
The decoration and the quality of the drinks are very particular. The waiters are mostly male, and they are all in their thirties and forties. They are polite, well-behaved and have very good movements.
At the banquet, there were two or three Westerners with blond hair and blue eyes, holding tall wine glasses, talking and laughing. There were also some yellow-skinned people among them.
Lan Xiaoxue and the other three did not take the initiative to talk to those foreigners. They seemed to have no interest in getting to know those people. Coming here was more of a way to kill time for them, or it could be said that Lan Xiaoxue wanted to meet the legendary people for a while.
The colorful Mr. Pierre Cardin, but he has not appeared yet. So they each stood in a corner chatting with a glass of red wine, occasionally looking at the exotic banquet with curious eyes.
"No wonder people say that French people eat with style. You see, potatoes and onions in China are not suitable for such big occasions." Du Meiling said to Lan Xiaoxue with a smile.
Lan Xiaoxue smiled and said: "I heard that when French people go to a banquet, they don't go to eat, but to taste wine. They don't go to eat, but to meet friends. You see, those people basically gather together with wine and chat.
."
Deng Jie and Du Meiling took a quick look and found that few people touched those dishes.
Although Lan Xiaoxue and the other three are not gorgeous or jewel-like, they do have a unique temperament about them. That kind of temperament is not something that Western women can possess, even some women with oriental charm may not have it. Li Peicheng taught
Their cultivation techniques have given them a hint of aura. They have seen such a magical man as Li Peicheng, and they care about Li Peicheng, which makes them indifferent to those men, no matter how outstanding they are. It seems that they are born with a dislike for him.
Men have a sense of superiority. Women who look down on men with such arrogance and outstanding temperament can often arouse men's desire to conquer. Especially these three women, one of whom is now considered a celebrity in Paris.
The three of Lan Xiaoxue stood aside and whispered, and soon attracted many people to chat with them. Those who could attend this banquet were all famous people in the Western world, mainly French politics, business, art, etc. These Europeans
People's inherent arrogance and prejudice against the Chinese did not allow them to give enough respect to Lan Xiaoxue's sudden rise. They always believed that fashion belonged to them. Lan Xiaoxue's rise can only show that she is a new kid. Furthermore,
Said that she was able to rise not because they provided this stage.
Their conversations with Lan Xiaoxue and the others were always exaggerated, and sometimes even inadvertently belittled China's backwardness in fashion. Some world-renowned shareholders of well-known fashion brands also sent invitations to Lan Xiaoxue, asking her to join their company, and they were proud of it.
He laid out a series of conditions that he thought were very favorable.
Whenever this happens, Lan Xiaoxue rejects them with a very cold attitude, and even treats them with an even more arrogant attitude.
After sending away another group of people, Lan Xiaoxue's eyes flashed with a strange look. There was a strong fighting spirit and firm determination in her eyes.
Today's banquet made her suddenly find another goal in life, a helpless goal, but it could divert her attention and rekindle the passion for struggle.
"Why, Xiaoxue is stimulated? Do you want to do something great for these red-haired devils?" Du Meiling asked with a smile, she knew Lan Xiaoxue very well.
"Why not? I suddenly want to do something earth-shattering. Are you interested?" Lan Xiaoxue, who has always been quiet and elegant, suddenly looked at Du Meiling and Deng Jie with extremely provocative and aggressive eyes.
Deng Jie looked at Lan Xiaoxue with some confusion. She didn't understand what Lan Xiaoxue meant, but Du Meiling understood it, because her heart was just as wandering and empty as Lan Xiaoxue, and she needed something to stimulate her.
"Why are you not interested?" Du Meiling raised the wine glass in her hand and touched it with Lan Xiaoxue, then turned to look at Deng Jie and said, "Why are you not interested?"
"I still don't know what you want to do?" Deng Jie said a little depressed. Although the three of them are like sisters, she lacks a tacit understanding with them.
"The goal is to one day build Candice into a world-famous brand like Yves Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton, etc. Of course, it would be better if it is possible to annex them. I want to see how dare these people say anything about ours.
Clothes are sold at street stalls, but we dare to say that they are the fashion capital of the world," said Du Meiling.
Deng Jie glanced at Lan Xiaoxue and Du Meiling in surprise. She really couldn't understand why they suddenly became so ambitious. Can't their current wealth satisfy them? Isn't their current life rich enough? But Deng Jie still raised the
He clinked the wine glasses with Du Meiling and Lan Xiaoxue and said with a smile: "Since you want to do this, I will accompany you to do it."
"Little Chinese girls are ambitious. To be honest, I have long been disgusted with these French guys who always think of themselves as fashionable people. China is a magical country. How can the descendants of barbarians like them understand it?"
A noble old woman in gorgeous clothes with a somewhat pale face approached Lan Xiaoxue and the others at some unknown time and spoke authentic Chinese.
This old woman is none other than Marquise Ellie. Ellie was once deeply attracted by the clothes designed by Lan Xiaoxue at a fashion show. In addition, her current owner is also from ancient China, so it is inevitable that she has a certain attitude toward Chinese people.
She felt so good that it was like her second hometown. She had secretly paid attention to the three of them early at the banquet. When she heard what they said, she couldn't help but come up and interrupt.
Lan Xiaoxue and the other three were shocked. They must know that they are now very smart, and it is impossible for ordinary people to escape their perception if they approach. However, this old woman stood behind them, but they did not know it yet.
This old woman is not simple and needs to be dealt with carefully, but she doesn't know what she means by saying these words? Lan Xiaoxue and the others immediately had many thoughts and questions in their minds.
"Haha, I made Madam laugh. It seems Madam is not French?" Du Meiling asked politely with a smile.
When communicating with others, Du Meiling always takes the lead among the three.
Ellie showed a look of disdain and smiled: "Of course not, I'm from England."
"Oh, it turns out Madam is from England." Du Meiling continued to smile and talk to Ali.
Ai Li came up to strike up a conversation. On the one hand, she had a good impression of Lan Xiaoxue and the other three because they were Chinese. On the other hand, she also wanted to chat with Lan Xiaoxue, who had suddenly emerged in the spotlight, about clothing, so the two sides briefly introduced each other and started talking.
Something about clothing came up.
Although Ai Li is not a professional fashion designer, because she has the backing of age and is a fashion lover, she is very knowledgeable when it comes to fashion design, and many of her ideas are quite inspiring. So after a while, the four of them
We were able to talk together.
The banquet ended mainly in the conversation with Ellie, and Pierre Cardin did not appear. However, Lan Xiaoxue did not feel regret, because tonight she had a greater ambition in her heart. Pierre Cardin was no longer her idol.
The object, but the object she wants to transcend.
Standing by the Seine River and watching Anthony take out his mobile phone, Li Peicheng suddenly felt that there was something familiar to him about this British vampire.
After Anthony made the call, Ellie quickly came to the Seine River. She was surprised that her master would come to France.
"Don't feel weird, I have secular friends who came to Paris to attend a fashion show, and I came here specifically to see it." Li Peicheng said with a smile.
Ai Li immediately thought of Lan Xiaoxue and the others, and asked carefully: "Could it be that the master's friends are the three women named Lan Xiaoxue."
Li Peicheng nodded and said, "It seems that you have seen them. Have they held a fashion show?"
No wonder those three people also have a faint trace of magic power. They turned out to be the master's worldly friends. It seems that the master must have passed on some skills to them.
"Yes, it has been held before, and it was very successful." Ellie replied respectfully.
Li Peicheng said oh, and he couldn't tell how he felt when he heard the news. He just stared aimlessly at the two dimly lit leaf-shaped islands floating in the middle of the Seine River in the distance, the Isle of Side and the
Saint Louis Island.
"My subordinate also met three of the master's friends at the banquet tonight and had a conversation with them." Ai Li carefully interrupted Li Peicheng's somewhat chaotic thoughts.
"Oh, what did you talk about?" Li Peicheng withdrew his gaze.
Ellie told Li Peicheng everything, including their ambitions.
After hearing the ambitions of Lan Xiaoxue and the others, Li Peicheng secretly smiled bitterly, that's fine, maybe they will forget about me soon. Thinking of this, Li Peicheng once again returned to the state of mind. Then he said lightly: "You guys are with me.
Go back to Arthur Island!"
Zhenling Island, Tongzhen Palace.
A solemn and solemn atmosphere enveloped the entire palace. A tall and imposing middle-aged man with a tall nose, red eyes, and a purple robe stood in the palace. The solemn and solemn atmosphere mainly emanated from him.
come out.
This middle-aged man is none other than Kun Li, the owner of Zhenling Island.
There are still seven or eight people in the palace, all of them have the cultivation level of Nascent Soul stage, and they are all well-known and powerful figures overseas. But at this time, they all have solemn faces, and some of them have a hint of worry in their eyes.
