Chapter 254 Sorry, at this point, I have to show off! Oops! I’ve overturned!
At dusk.
The afterglow of the sunset shines gently through the colorful window lattice into the luxurious main dining room of Hayden Manor.
There was a gorgeous dining table in the center of the hall. The dining table was covered with snow-white silk cloth. Gu Ran and Evelin, who had changed their clothes, sat opposite each other on both sides of the long dining table.
The exquisite and beautiful sterling silver candlesticks added a romantic atmosphere to this dinner.
More than a dozen male and female servants came in and out carrying dishes, careful not to make any mistakes.
——Today’s dinner was supposed to be hosted by Evelin’s dad himself, but when Evelin and Gu Ran were watching the closed-loop fight scene with great interest, Evelin’s dad called and told them
He will go back later tonight and let them eat first.
Evelin simply didn’t wait any longer.
After all, after the dinner, there are more important things waiting to be done.
Evelin changed out of her equestrian knight uniform and regained her elegance as a noble lady.
Her blond hair was spread over her shoulders, exuding a fruity wood-like fragrance. Paired with her porcelain white skin, she was so beautiful.
She wore a dark blue classic dress decorated with tassels. Her slender waist outlined graceful curves. The crinoline in the skirt supported the typical aristocratic girl temperament. The large V on her chest was even more generous.
Reveal the unique charm of women to the extreme.
When I think of the little celebrities and Internet celebrities in China who dress and cover themselves, fearing that the poor will see them and the rich won't know about them, Evelin is simply a walking textbook!
"Gu..." Evelin looked at Gu Ran lovingly, "I'm super happy today. This is the happiest day since I was a child - thank you."
...It's a bit early to say this now, it's not dark yet, and it will be more exciting later on.
By the way, at such a high-end aristocratic dinner, there shouldn’t be food like lamb kidney pie, right?
Gu Ran cleared his throat, "Evelin, I'm very happy too. By the way, are we really waiting for your dad?"
Evelin smiled and said: "Our family is very direct. He said you don't have to wait for him, so you don't have to be polite."
"All right……"
In this regard, foreigners are really straightforward. If they say there is no need to wait, they really don’t have to wait.
The two of them hadn't even exchanged a few words before the dining table was filled to the brim.
The silver tableware shines with luxurious luster under the dual illumination of the setting sun and candlelight, and the exquisite porcelain plates are neatly arranged with colorful and fragrant Western food.
The appetizers include Bocuse d'Or with foie gras oil and black truffle sauce, Cannes' top-quality caviar seafood platter, top-quality beef tenderloin with oil-soaked French 5A grade foie gras, French black truffle foie gras with green apple cheese and Austrian platinum grade caviar.
Norwegian smoked salmon with cream mushrooms and herb braised eggs, baked snails with Burgundy vanilla sauce...
The soup is a Mediterranean Creamy Matsutake Soup with Wild Black Truffle Black Gold Abalone Soup.
The salads include Oslo sweet and sour oysters with organic vegetable salad rolls, Italian vegetable curry pancakes with Chinese Sichuan spicy sauce, and grilled octopus salad with Provence potatoes.
The main course is Hayden Manor Mill Roast Triple Whip with Alaskan Snow Crab Claws and Golden Paris Sauce, Provence Charcoal Grilled Venison with Pan-fried Blackcurrants, Red Wine Braised Lamb Saddle with Porcini Mushrooms and Black Truffle Sauce...
Seeing the large table full, Gu Ran felt numb all over.
The cheapest dish on this table would cost over a thousand yuan in a domestic Western restaurant!
Especially what kind of whip is "Hayden Manor Mill Grilled Triple Whip with Alaskan Snow Crab Claws and Golden Paris Sauce"...
Gu Ran couldn't help but ask: "Do you usually... eat this?"
Evelin chuckled, "How is that possible? Of course it's because you came that we had such a rich meal! Normally we would just eat a black truffle with some Wagyu beef or something."
Gu Ran:......
No wonder they are growing so well!
Evelin added: "This main dish of Hayden Manor is unique to us. You must try it."
Damn it!
Evelin, do you not believe in my strength, or are you worried that I won't submit?
Believe me, although I am very serious, when my young body goes crazy, even I am afraid!
"This, I, actually... really don't need it."
"Oh, Gu!" Evelin said coquettishly: "This is all my intention, just eat it all!"
Gu Ran smiled helplessly, "Okay... don't regret it."
Evelin was beaming, "How could I regret it!"
Watching Gu Ran eat a lot of black truffles, sea oysters, and grilled three-whip, Evelin's smile almost couldn't be closed.
Just as the dinner was coming to an end, a half-bald man in a suit who was over fifty years old strode into the restaurant.
"Dad!" Evelin stood up happily, "You are finally back! Let me introduce to you, this is the star of hope of Southampton, Gu Ran! Gu, this is the star of hope for you.
My father, Sir Jonathan Adelaide, the owner of Haydon Hall."
Gu Ran stood up solemnly and said, "Hello, Sir Sir."
Jonathan strode over excitedly and shook Gu Ran's hand vigorously, "Hello, young man, I have been looking forward to the day that I can get to know you! I'm really sorry. I was going to have dinner with you.
Yes, I ended up being temporarily delayed due to business matters, please don’t be offended.”
"Where is it!" Gu Ran said quickly: "Thank you, Sir, for inviting me to dinner. I am very honored to meet Sir. Sir's manor is so beautiful, and Sir's daughter is even more beautiful! The food is also very good.
Rich and delicious, I dare say, Sir, you must be the happiest person in the world."
"Hahaha!"
Gu Ran's compliments were very helpful to Sir Jonathan!
"Mr. Gu Ran, we really hit it off right away! Come and have a drink with us!"
As soon as Jonathan waved, the servant brought two glasses of bright red wine.
Gu Ran wanted to say that he wouldn't drink because he would have to drive soon - but since Jonathan was such a cheerful master, it wouldn't be good to offend him.
Gu Ran immediately picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Jonathan, and drank it all in one gulp.
Jonathan gave a thumbs up and said in admiration: "Awesome! Young man! You are in great shape! You can drink up my twenty-year-old deer blood tonic wine in one sip!"
Gu Ran:...What?
Jonathan shook his head, "I can't, I can't bear the strength of this medicinal wine. I have to sip it in small sips and try to finish it before going to bed at night..."
Oh shit, you old man!
——Gu Ran felt like it was on his face instantly, and his blood was almost hot.
Evelin said distressedly: "Oh, Dad! Look at you! Gu never drinks, but today he gave you a huge favor!"
Jonathan was slightly startled, "What a boy! You're so sincere! However, I still have to take a small sip, otherwise my heart won't be able to bear it..."
Gu Ran tried hard to control his frantic heart, "Just do as you please, Sir Sir."
What the hell can I say?
Can I still step on the old man's neck and pour it into him?
Alas, you are still young after all!
It's okay, anyway, it's not me who's screaming tonight...
Gu Ran's eyes unconsciously glanced at Evelin's big v.
Why did I get drunk even more...
After Jonathan took a sip of medicinal wine, he exhaled comfortably, pulled his tie, and asked Gu Ran to sit down.
Gu Ran sat down politely, but his eyes glanced at Evelin completely uncontrollably.
Evelin asked with concern: "Dad, you seem a little worried today. Is your business not going well?"
Jonathan smiled bitterly and said, "My good daughter, you really know Dad. The shipbuilding factory where Dad and his partner are experiencing a general strike. A large overseas order is about to be breached. That mother will mess with Fake."
The partners suddenly withdrew their capital again. If this capital hole cannot be plugged as soon as possible..."
Jonathan glanced at the luxurious manor dejectedly, "I'm afraid we have to say goodbye to this place in the future."
Evelin exclaimed, "Dad, are you kidding me? I can't afford black truffles anymore?"
Jonathan shrugged helplessly, "Things aren't that bad. If it doesn't work out, I'll sell the shares of Southampton Club first and plug the hole completely... But I always feel like it will be a big loss."
As soon as he heard about the shares of "Southampton Club", Gu Ran's brows suddenly moved!
With me here, the value of Southampton Club will definitely increase greatly in the future!
If you can take advantage of this opportunity to buy it, not only can it be regarded as an investment, but you may also be able to become a major shareholder and then become the owner of Southampton!
Really buy a club and play!
Be your own boss!
Imagine that when the substitute comes on, the commentator yells: What? Our boss is warming up!?
Hahaha! The on-site effect must be full! It’s so cool!
Gu Ran immediately asked: "Mr. Sir, how many shares do you have in Southampton Club?"
Jonathan said without thinking: "Oh, I hold 2.19% of the shares of Southampton Club and its ancillary properties including land, offline stores, newspapers and other assets. If converted, it is probably more than 20 million pounds."
Damn it...
"What's wrong, young man?"
"Oh, it's nothing, I was just asking."
Gu Ran changed the subject and said, "Mr. Jazz, I have a suggestion. I wonder if you would like to consider it."
Jonathan quickly asked: "What suggestions?"
Gu Ran said: "It's very simple. Temporarily rent your Hayden Manor to the most profitable Hollywood crew as a filming location. In this way, you can not only earn a considerable amount of venue rental, thereby alleviating your pressure, but also increase your income."
With the valuation of your Haydn Manor, even if you really can't close the hole and sell Haydn Manor in the next few months, you can still sell it for a top price."
Jonathan slapped his thigh, "That's right! But... where can I find a movie that can be filmed at my Haydn Manor and become the world's box office champion?"
...I'm sorry, things have reached this point, and I have to pretend.
Gu Ran cleared his throat, "Actually, in addition to being a professional football player, I am also a Hollywood screenwriter."
"Walter?!"
Jonathan and Evelin exclaimed at the same time.
Gu Ran said lightly: "Yes, I'm not joking. Not long ago, Christopher Nolan bought me a hand-drawn script for "Batman 2". It is currently being filmed in full swing and is expected to be released by the end of the year."
"Oh, buy it!" Evelin screamed excitedly: "Gu! You can actually draw scripts by hand? Oh my god! You are really an all-around genius!"
Jonathan was also shocked and said: "This, this is incredible! The two talents of culture and sports have blossomed..."
"It's out of the question, it's out of the question." Gu Ran said with a smile: "Sir, if you agree to rent out Haydn Manor for filming, I can hand-draw a hit script, and specify in the script that it must be shot in your Haydn Manor.
, otherwise you won’t sell this script, so you can easily negotiate a good rental price and temporarily alleviate your financial crisis.”
Jonathan said excitedly: "If that's the case, that's great! As long as you can help me get through the most difficult three months, I believe I can get through it! But, my dear Gu! I'm afraid it will be difficult to write a script.
Isn’t it easy? Can you complete it within three months? You still have to participate in training and competition!”
Evelin added: "I still have to find time to come here to train equestrian! Win the Olympic gold medal!"
Gu Ran sighed faintly, "Of course it is not easy to hand-draw a script, and it is even more difficult to hand-draw a script that can win the box office championship... However, I am willing to do my best for you and Evelin, Mr. Sir. It won't take three months,
In a month and a half at most, I can have a top Hollywood production crew come to my doorstep with my script and pay the rent."
Evelin said with affection in her eyes: "It turns out it was all for me..."
Jonathan held Gu Ran's hand excitedly, "Gu, if you can really do it within a month and a half, you will be my brother from now on!"
Damn! Stop!
Before Gu Ran could object, Evelin hurriedly said: "Oh! Dad! Gu is my... friend!"
Jonathan laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, we'll talk about our own things from now on! Come on, come on, let's have another drink!"
Jonathan picked up his twenty-year-old deer blood tonic wine.
Gu Ran waved his hands quickly, "No, no, no, Sir, I won't be able to stand it if I drink any more!"
I can stand it, but your daughter can’t stand it either!
"Dad, you can drink it yourself! I want to take Gu Ran to visit Hayden Manor again." Evelin took Gu Ran's hot hand.
Jonathan nodded and said: "That's right! You need to take a good stroll, so that you can inspire Gu to get more inspiration."
"Then, see you next time, sir."
"Okay, Evelin, you must take care of my good brother."
"Dad!" Evelin stamped her feet angrily, and the moment was filled with excitement.
Gu Ran felt a little dizzy...
I don’t know how I walked out of the restaurant.
After blowing the cool night breeze, Gu Ran felt...even more confused, and he couldn't help but touch Evelin's waist.
no!
I can't do this!
I can't let my young body control me!
——Gu Ran said secretly in his heart, while trying his best to remove the young hand from his waist and put it on Evelin's buttocks.
Gu Ran:......
Evelin smiled at Gu Ran with blurred eyes and leaned into Gu Ran's arms.
"Gu, you hand-drawn the script, it's all for me, right?"
"……right!"
"I knew it." Evelin's face was sweet.
The two of them just supported each other and hugged each other and got into the golf cart, and the two young bodies were squeezed together again.
"Gu, where do you want to go?"
"I passed by a small forest before..."
"I thought you wanted to see my room."
"I'm not that kind of person……"
"I understand, I understand everything..."
Evelin stepped on the accelerator, and the golf cart started racing wildly.
The speed of the car was too fast, as fast as Gu Ran's manic heartbeat.
Bang!
The golf cart crashed into a maze of woods——
Overturned!
With the cool summer breeze, the leaves swayed in the wind.
There was a section of trees that was swinging particularly hard.
