Dragon Clan: Thought So Far.

Chapter 221 220. Family Dinner (5) Uncle and Aunt Lu Mingze

Section 5: Uncle and Aunt Lu Mingze

Tokyo is a very realistic city. When you have nothing, it is such a big cage. Your whole life is locked, and you live in a miserable way with a humble salary. But when you have wealth and power, you will feel that this place is really great. Everyone is serving you. Wherever you go in your car, there will be polite and quiet waiters waiting outside the car door. Big black umbrella.

After having a Japanese lunch at noon, Mai Shutoku stood up and said goodbye. She said clearly that she would continue to investigate Tachibana Masamune and could not accompany Lu Beile and Ling Gege to travel around Tokyo. Lu Mingfei really wanted to go back to the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo and Caesar and the others. They discussed the matter of sneaking into Genji Heavy Industries, but Miss Zero said in an unquestionable tone that it was not easy to come to Shibuya, why don't you go for a walk? She grabbed Boss Lu's wrist and got into the crowd.

In fact, this is not the first time Lu Mingfei has been alone with Zero. When they were in school, they often had late-night snacks together. The baroque-style canteen always left a dish late at night for students who were keen on late-night snacks. At Xiaomen, there are always a few chefs and waiters sitting around playing cards, sometimes all night long. An Indian waiter with heavy dark circles and bags under his eyes said that Lu Mingfei and Ling were always the last couple of guests in the canteen. Whenever they entered the canteen hall in the early morning, which was filled with excitement during the day, Night Management The listener will play a serenade on the stereo, sometimes it is Mozart's "Don Giovanni", sometimes it is Schubert's "Hear, hear, lark". Although looking back now, the atmosphere at that time was somewhat charming, Lu Mingfei probably never regarded Zero as a beautiful girl who could be pursued.

Although Zero is indeed pretty.

Most of the boys in the college have a ranking of the appearance of the girls studying in Kassel's undergraduate department. Xia Mi is ranked at the top of the list without any dispute, but Zero's voice is also quite high, even far surpassing that of Isabel, the leader of the student union's dance troupe. , in comparison, even the red-haired witch Chen Motong was inferior to the Iceberg Queen.

But what should I say? She was probably too familiar with her. Counting a period of time and space, Lu Mingfei had been having late-night snacks with Ling for five years. Now he felt that this Russian girl was more like a good friend.

In the afternoon, Zero has been leading the way, because although Lu Mingfei is quite familiar with Tokyo, his scope of activities only involves Shinjuku and Edogawa area most of the time, and Shibuya is really not that much.

After they crossed the Shibuya intersection side by side, they saw a long street with mostly young people on the road. Zero said that this is Shibuya Center Street. The Udagawa construction project caused floods here a long time ago. After the 30s, Center Street gradually became a gathering place for young people. Later, many restaurants appeared in Center Street and gradually rivaled Shinjuku. Then arches were built on the street, street lights were erected, and the streets were painted, gradually developing into what they are today.

Lu Mingfei's suit was wet with coffee. Although it had been cleaned, there were still some stains that could be seen. Ling led Lu Mingfei into a clothing store at the end of the long street. The store is hidden deep in the alley. The owner is not Japanese but a British man in a straight suit. He has a very high nose bridge and deep eye sockets, which makes his eyes look very deep.

Zero respects the Englishman very much. According to her, this is Leopold Collins, a tailor from Savile Row in London. He will only serve the real nobles in the mixed-race society. Mr. Collins said humbly that he can It was an honor for him to serve the heirs of the Romanov dynasty. Lu Mingfei said in his heart at that time, well, it turns out that everyone is born into a prince or aristocrat, but it doesn't matter, the prince, the general, Xiang Ning, there is something to say, until autumn comes and September 8, the whole city will be covered with golden armor.

Mr. Collins then prepared coffee and desserts for Ling and led Lu Mingfei into the clothing store. During the process of trying on clothes, Lu Mingfei learned that the master tailor had been hired a week ago to come to Tokyo to serve a single customer within two months. According to the customer's request, Mr. Collins prepared more than 20 high-end suits for that customer. Ready-to-wear clothing, each costing more than a hundred thousand dollars, is free here. Then Lu Mingfei saw the suits that had been ironed to a stiff shape on the movable hangers. Each one fit him perfectly, and each one was many times more expensive than the one prepared for him by the Dragon Blood Society.

In the end, Lu Mingfei chose a black suit with dark stripes. After wearing it, Mr. Collins pushed a full-length mirror for Lu Mingfei and carefully lined the collar with gold. Lu Mingfei looked shocked and said, so it turns out that the collar can really be lined with gold? Regarding feelings, he used to think that this was Caesar bragging.

Lu Mingfei looked at himself in the mirror carefully, then took out his cell phone and took a few selfies in a coquettish way.

"Very handsome." Mr. Collins gave a thumbs up and did not hesitate to praise him. Lu Mingfei changed several poses and took pictures. Finally, he put away his phone and patted the master tailor on the shoulder: "You are so handsome." , a lot of good people."

When Mr. Collins returned Lu Mingfei to Zero's hands, he was even sprayed with a specially prepared perfume. The faint scent of oak floated out, reminiscent of the mellow and refreshing vodka. Ling Zai carefully looked at Lu Mingfei inside and out. He raised the corner of his mouth and quickly put it down. He straightened the collar and cuffs of Lu Mingfei, took out a watch from his bag and gave it to the man. Wear it.

"What kind of watch is this?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused. The Student Union loves Patek Philippe and IWC. The composition and aesthetics of Dragon Blood Society are similar to those of the Student Union, so he always wears these two watches.

"Vacheron Constantin Tour de I'lle Watch." Zero said.

Lu Mingfei took a breath of air.

With his superficial understanding of Swiss watches, he also knew how exaggerated the price of this thing was. Lu Mingfei lowered his head and saw that it was indeed a double-sided astronomical watch. The Vacheron Constantin Tour de I'lle Watch was limited to 7 pieces and was released in 2005. It has an independent number and was launched to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of Vacheron Constantin. You can appreciate the operation of the tourbillon directly through the dial. The price of a single one exceeds three million US dollars.

"I don't sell my body as an artist." Lu Mingfei said this sentence without thinking. After saying it, he immediately regretted it. He thought, Lu Mingfei, Lu Mingfei, you are so fucking dumb that you can't stop talking.

"It's okay, I'm lending this to you. We have a very important dinner party tonight. If you are going to meet a few guests who should be very important to you, you must have a better watch to support the occasion." Zero's expression remained the same. There was no change, the wind made her eyelashes tremble slightly, and the bright sunshine fell on her eyes with white gold pupils, as beautiful as a flower field under the sky.

Lu Mingfei was a little nervous for no reason.

At this time, his phone vibrated, it was from Xia Mi. He just sent a photo of himself in front of a full-length mirror to his junior sister.

"Senior brother is very handsome." Xia Mi sent a voice message, and the little junior sister seemed very happy to hear the tone.

Lu Mingze was led into the Grand Kitchen by the waiters in black tuxedos with a swollen belly. His uncle and aunt were looking around behind the little fat man like a pair of generals, and his aunt was thinking that it looked like it was not cheap here. At the same time, he was already feeling sorry for the stack of 10,000-yen banknotes that he had just taken out of his pocket but was still warm. His uncle was quite happy and said that the Grand Kitchen was indeed Michelin-starred, and that a high-end restaurant was high-end. He saw few people along the way. , the decoration is high-end and classy, ​​which is suitable for a successful person like him to dine.

Yes, my uncle has made a lot of money by opening a foot bath city. He feels that he is now a semi-successful person, and having a Michelin star is barely in line with his status.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, his eyes were filled with a sense of luxury. Lu Mingze felt a little sad in his heart, thinking that even if he walked into the most luxurious French restaurant in the world, something was missing without the mark of the setting sun by his side.

My uncle is editing "Tokyo Grand Kitchen" in Moments. The design of this restaurant uses wooden grilles and glass screen partitions in the space, coupled with a transparent, bright and spacious environment, detailed green plants and huge floor-to-ceiling windows. , the style is simple and fashionable, and the environment is indeed high-end, but it is still slightly inferior to the Ultraviolet by Paul Pairet I went to in Shanghai..."

In fact, my uncle has never been to Ultraviolet by Paul Pairet at all. The biggest wine and restaurant he has ever been to is the Regent Hotel, but the men in the Laolu family love to save face, so they have to pretend to be good if they don’t have money, not to mention that they now have a few small coins in their pockets. It was an accident that I came to eat at this French restaurant.

Lu Mingze spent a lot of money to buy a plastic doll from a store on Shibuya Center Street. It was said to be a figure of a female character in "Black Bullet". His aunt kept scolding him as a prodigal man all the way. Lu Mingze argued that it was a niche show and it was rare to see related peripherals. His uncle smoked and said that if you want to play, you should have a good time. If you want to buy figurines, buy the most expensive ones. , and then took Lu Mingze back to the store to exchange for a figure with better texture. As a result, they went back and won a prize this time, which turned out to be free coupons for Michelin restaurants.

The aunt didn't believe it at first, but the uncle thought it was funny, so the family of three came here at the dinner stall and showed their free coupons. As a result, the waiter at the door actually led them into the restaurant.

Lu Mingze was thinking a lot. At the same time, he felt that he had become more experienced now, and then he thought of his cheap cousin.

Lu Mingfei has rarely contacted his family since he went to Kassel College. Even if he calls, he always calls his father. I don't know how he is doing now.

He must be working part-time to pay for tuition.

My cousin used to be the most handsome person in Shilan Middle School. Lu Mingze remembered that the most beautiful girl in the class was Lu Mingfei's little crush.

Last year, Lu Mingfei ranked first on the big red list and received a full scholarship from an aristocratic school in the United States. Everyone said that the Lu family had a great person who was about to become famous. Everyone subconsciously ignored him. Lu Mingze .

When Lu Mingze thought about this, he felt aggrieved and panicked. He didn't know when his cousin started to get the idea, and he suddenly became so powerful, as if he was a different person.

But hey, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, and now I, Lu Mingze, am also on the red list admitted to Austin University. Although a lot of glory has been taken away by you, Lu Mingfei, who doesn't call me Master Lu when I see you?

It is said that people are in high spirits when happy events happen. Lu Mingze thought that he would realize his great ambitions and go home to inherit his father's foot bath city after graduating from the University of Austin. By then, which little girl in this city would not miss him? Young body?

No matter how awesome you are, Lu Mingfei, you are still a poor boy. In the future, you will have to marry into the family of a certain Wall Street financial giant and change your surname to a foreign one. The important task of continuing the Lu family will still fall on me, Lu Mingze.

Thinking about it this way, the little fat man felt very happy.

Coupled with the respectful attitude of the waiters and the quiet and elegant atmosphere of the Grand Kitchen, Lu Mingze wanted to laugh but couldn't. After all, he felt that he was an elegant person when he appeared in such an elegant place. How could an elegant person be so casual? Just giggling, others would think him a fool, so he buried his head and laughed.

But as he walked, he felt something was wrong. The footsteps behind him seemed to stop. Lu Mingze was startled and asked, "Maybe he got separated from his parents?" That can't be done, I don't have any money.

But before he looked up, he saw a pair of shiny leather shoes and a pair of camel-colored high heels in front of him. Leaving the leather shoes aside, Lu Mingze felt that his sexual orientation was fine. Looking up from the high heels, he saw Ling Ding's ankle, which was so thin that he could hold it in his hand. .

The little fat man swallowed, his Adam's apple rolled, and his heart pounded. When he raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him, he immediately felt like a bolt from the blue.

Lu Mingze didn't look back to see his parents' expressions, but he thought they should be as exciting as he was now.

Appearing in front of her was a girl with platinum-blond hair. The girl was wearing a lace white silk shirt, a camel-colored long skirt and high-heeled shoes of the same color underneath. Her platinum-blond hair was braided and tied up on top of her head. There was no excess on her body. The rest of the decorations naturally burst out with the nobility of a queen, like the precious princess of a European king.

But Lu Mingze's eyes did not fall on the princess as usual, but were glued to the face of the man the princess was holding.

This man is his cousin.

In Lu Mingze's imagination, Lu Mingfei was working hard and studying to support himself.
-

The moment he walked into the restaurant, Lu Mingfei didn't even know who his guest would be. He was just a little surprised because the place was obviously booked today. The restaurant in Nuo Da was empty except for a table on the second floor. There was a white tablecloth, candles lit, and five dining chairs surrounding this long table. Behind each dining chair stood a handsome waiter.

Zero sat quietly waiting in the candlelight at the end of the long table, holding a tulip wine glass with two slender white fingers. His cold face was probably a little warmer because he drank some wine.

"What kind of trick is this?" Lu Mingfei trembled and wondered. Could it be that there were actually no guests at all tonight and it was just Miss Ling who wanted to have some high-end fun with him?

At this time, a brass trolley containing wine and desserts appeared next to the dining table. Ling reached out and took a bottle of wine for Lu Mingfei and motioned for him to sit down.

After Lu Mingfei sat down, Ling put his elbow on the table and the back of his hand to support his chin. He blinked his big eyes and looked at him, which made Lu Mingfei's body get goosebumps.

Lu Mingfei was about to ask a question, but Ling pushed the wine glass in front of Lu Mingfei.

"They'll be here soon," she said.
