As Claire spoke, she couldn’t help sighing, and said,
“To be honest, since the last time dad told me about the affairs between him and mom and the auntie Meiqing, I did sympathize with him.”
“But after all mom gave birth to me. If the two of them really want to divorce because of that woman, I’m afraid Mom will be too pitiful for one person…”
Charlie smiled, shook her hand, and said seriously:
“Take a thousand steps and say, even if parents are really divorced, won’t Mom still have us?”
“The matter between them, let them go by themselves. Let them deal with it, we as children only need to support their decisions.”
Having said this, he comforted: “You see that many young people don’t want their parents to interfere in their private lives, let alone doing that in their parents’ life. So we don’t have to worry too much.”
Claire nodded lightly, as if she was relieved a lot at this moment, so she took Charlie’s arm and said:
“Okay, then it’s up to them, let them make their own decisions, let’s go back to the room.”
Early the next morning.
Charlie and Claire had breakfast, just like yesterday, drove her to the old house in the old city.
He heard from Claire that Liona put a lot of effort into repairing this house, and even in many small details she was striving for perfection regardless of cost.
In the car, Claire sighed to Charlie: “That is the customer you saw yesterday, I originally made her a plan of more than 2 million yuan, which was actually used to repair her old house.”
“It’s more than enough, but she kept adjusting the plan yesterday and directly increased the budget to 10 million…”
After speaking, she said: “I found that rich people do things without considering the cost. The actual sale price of this house is estimated to be no more than one million.”
“Moreover, the government does not allow flipping and major changes to the exterior.”
“As a result, she actually has to spend so much money to repair the interior, and I can almost buy the alley for 10 million yuan. I really can’t understand…”
Charlie smiled slightly and said, “Perhaps this old house has some special meaning to others, so it makes sense that people want to spend money to repair it better.”
“Yes.” Claire said: “Auntie Du said that she wanted to spend her life here, but I heard her accent seemed to be someone from Eastcliff, and I don’t know why she chose to come to Aurous Hill for that.”
After that, she said again: “By the way, Aunt Du’s daughter is said to live here with her, and her daughter’s accent is also from Eastcliff.”
Charlie nodded and said with a smile: “In fact, living in Aurous Hill is much better than living in Eastcliff.”
“In places like Eastcliff, summer is hotter than the south, winter is particularly cold, and spring and autumn are particularly short.”
“The winter will begin immediately, and the warmer will start in March and April next year.”
“The most important thing is that the weather is particularly dry, with strong winds all day long, and there were sandstorms in the previous years.”
“These two years have been better, but the various environments are still not better than those in the south.”
“It’s a lot worse. Look at how good our Aurous Hill is. The air is humid and the four seasons are distinct.”
Claire couldn’t help smiling and said, “Look at what you said, as if you are familiar with Eastcliff. Have you lived in Eastcliff?”
Charlie smiled and said: “I went to Eastcliff some time ago to help a client see Feng Shui. The client told me to complain.”
“In fact, people who go to the north more yearn for the south. You can see that the northeast is cold all year round, and the people there what I like is the South China Sea.”
Claire nodded and said, “You are also saying that the weather conditions in Aurous Hill are indeed much better than those in the south.”
After that, Claire said again: “By the way, Aunt Du seems to have a good impression of you, and has been asking me about your situation.”
“After hearing that you show people the feng shui, she said that she would like to ask you to come over to take a look. If you have time, you can meet her. She is very nice.”
Charlie couldn’t help frowning. Liona didn’t know his true identity. Why bother telling Claire about this?
Thinking of this, he casually said, “I probably looked at it the last time I went. The feng shui of her old house is still very good. There is no need to make any changes.”
“If you really want to adjust it, then wait. Let’s talk about it after we’re done. It’s almost time to make minor adjustments.”
“Okay.” Claire didn’t know that Charlie was perfunctory, nodded and said: “When the meeting is over, I will go and talk to her.”
Charlie sent Claire to the door of the old house. Liona just walked out of the yard. Seeing Claire getting out of the car, she smiled and said, “Claire is here.”
Claire smiled and said, “Hello Auntie, I have made a fine-tuning of the last plan. You will take a look at it later.”
“Okay!” Liona nodded, waved her hand to Charlie sitting in the cab, and smiled: “Hello, Mr. Wade, we meet again.”
Charlie put down the car window and said with a smile, “Hello Aunt Du, I won’t get out of the car, I have something to do later.”
Liona hurriedly nodded and said: “If you have something to do, go to work as soon as possible. You can rest assured that Claire is here with me.”
Charlie nodded, and couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled. Last time Liona saw that Claire was also called President Willson, this time she changed the name to Claire.
It seems that the relationship between the two people has progressed very quickly.
Charlie didn’t doubt Liona’s character, but when he thought that she was deliberately trying to get closer to Claire, he was more or less worried, worried that Liona had intentionally or unintentionally missed something.
But right now, he didn’t want to remind her directly, he believes Liona still has some sense of measure.
So he bid farewell to the two, drove straight to Shagri-La, waiting to pick up Sara, and then go to the airport to pick up Philip and his wife.
After Charlie arrived at Shagri-La, he went directly to Sara’s room.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Sara’s room, the door of the room opened from inside.
Sara’s agent, Tasha, was wearing work clothes with the brokerage company’s logo and dragging a large box. She was about to come out of the room. Sara’s voice also came from inside:
“Tasha, after you arrive at the venue, you must must put my baby in my dressing room properly. Without my permission, no one except you can go in, let alone touch it, you know?”
Tasha said helplessly: “Oh, I know, you’ve been talking to my ears all morning, so annoying, if you really worry about me, or you can take it by yourself.”
Sara blurted out: “I don’t have time to go to the venue in the morning! Charlie will pick me up soon.”
“Then we will go to the airport to meet my parents together, and then we will go to the hotel at noon for lunch for his birthday.”
“You will keep it safe for me, and I won’t need you to keep it after I’m over in the afternoon!”
Tasha murmured dissatisfiedly: “I know Charlie and Charlie all day long, and my ears are almost puffed up. I don’t know what is good about your Charlie.”
“The people in the entertainment industry are more handsome than him. There are too many men to go.”
Sara hummed: “You are not allowed to speak ill of my Charlie, he is the most handsome in my mind.”
Tasha shook her head helplessly, pushing the box out, turning around and saying:
“I don’t bother to listen to your nymph0 here, I have to go to the venue quickly, there is still a lot of work to go to the venue in the morning for final confirmation.”
After speaking, Tasha just left the door, and when she turned around, she ran into Charlie.
Suddenly seeing him, Tasha was shocked and said that evil has arrived, which made her feel a little guilty.
Moreover, this was the first time she had faced Charlie at close range, and the sharp, handsome face in front of her immediately made her feel a little bit faster and flushed.
She suddenly felt that what she said just now was really wrong.
She couldn’t help muttering in heart: “It’s really hard for the entertainment industry to find a handsome male artist than Charlie.”
“Moreover, even if there are some male artists who look more handsome than Charlie, most of them have undergone plastic surgery, which is not natural at all.”
“In the current entertainment industry, as long as they follow the idol route, who doesn’t have plastic surgery?”
“Sometimes male artists have more severe plastic surgery than female artists, and many male artists have cosmetic surgery, one is more feminine than women. It’s really rare to see a tough handsome guy like Charlie…”
Charlie ran into Tasha, but she seemed to be stunned, so he coughed deliberately, “Ahem, hello, Miss Tasha.”
She came back to her senses at this time. When she thought that she was staring at Charlie’s handsome face for a long time just now, suddenly got embarrassed and asked nervously,
“Oh, you… why are you? What are you doing here……”
“I’m here to pick up Sara.” Seeing her panicked, Charlie couldn’t help asking: “What are you so scared of, and I won’t eat you?”
Tasha touched her chest, calmed down, and deliberately said loudly to him:
“You won’t eat me. I’m afraid that after you hear what I said wrong, the tigress in the house will eat me!”
When Sara heard Tasha’s words, she subconsciously asked: “Tasha, who are you talking to? Who do you say is the tigress? Isn’t it true that my Char…!”
While speaking, she ran out quickly, and when she saw Charlie, her eyes lit up and she said excitedly: “Charlie, why didn’t you tell me when you came?”
Then, without waiting for his answer, she said to Tasha: “Oh, Tasha, go quickly, don’t delay your work, hurry up, hurry up, and be safe on the road.”
Having said that, she quickly grabbed Charlie’s arm and said to him,
“Charlie, come in and sit for a while, wait for me, I’ll put on a simple makeup, and let’s set off!”
Seeing Charlie being pulled into the room by Sara with the door closed, Tasha couldn’t help but muttered in a low voice, “Forget friends in love!”
After speaking, she dragged the suitcase and left.
In the room, Sara pulled Charlie, pressed him onto the sofa, and said, “Charlie, wait for me a few more minutes, and I’ll be ready soon.”
After speaking, she ran into the bathroom.
Charlie took out his mobile phone and called Issac to confirm that the team was ready, so he waited for Sara to come out ready and left the room with her.
The same as the process of picking her up yesterday, Issac helped there with his airport relationship.
Several cars drove directly into the airport hangar, and then waited for the planes of Philip and Lenan to land.
At 10:40, a business jet modified from a brand-new Boeing 737 landed at the Airport.
This passenger plane, which originally had the largest passenger capacity of nearly two hundred people, has been completely modified and turned into a private business jet capable of flying around the world.
The plane drove slowly into the hangar after the guided car, and it hadn’t stopped.
Charlie had already seen the porthole of the fuselage, facing the husband and wife to be welcomed by him and Sara.
Due to the large size of the plane, the airport staff drove a passenger elevator car.
After docking with the cabin door, the couple walked off the passenger elevator.
Sara was in a great mood, and she waved her hand and shouted, “Dad, mom!”
Philip and Lenan walked down hand in hand.
After many days of absence, Charlie found that Philip’s complexion was very good, his body was straight, and he looked like he was only in his early forties.
He can have such a complexion, all because of the effect of rejuvenation pills.
However, Lenan, who is next to Philip, was a little bit tired when compared to him.
In fact, although she is almost fifty years old, because of the very good maintenance, she looks forty years old.
Standing with Sara, they are not like a mother and daughter at all, more like a pair of sisters.
However, the state she presented as a whole was much worse than Philip, who was obviously a few years older, and she seemed a little sick.
Charlie immediately recalled what Sara had said to him.
Lenan had been helping Philip personally recently, thinking that the heavy work had dragged down his body and energy.
As soon as the couple walked off the passenger elevator, Sara couldn’t help holding Charlie’s hand and hurried up to greet them.
Charlie said respectfully:
“Uncle and Auntie, you two have face trouble coming this far!”
Philip laughed and said, “Charlie, you saved the life of uncle. Are you still trying to be polite to uncle for such a thing?”
Lenan on the side also smiled and said,
“Yes, Charlie, your Uncle has been looking forward to celebrating your birthday this year.”
“I don’t know how long he has been talking about it. You don’t know how excited he was along the way.”
At this moment Sara asked hurriedly, “Dad, did I not ask you to bring the birthday cake for me? Did you bring it?”
Philip smiled and said: “Of course I brought it! Can I forget what my baby girl has ordered?”
“The cake is in the cargo compartment, and I asked the crew to strictly follow the temperature of the warehouse is controlled at zero degrees.”
“The packing boxes are all reinforced, so there will be absolutely no problems, and the staff will unload them and send them to the hotel soon!”
“That’s good!” Sara breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Charlie, and said with a grin:
“Charlie, the cake I ordered this time is really great. You will love it after you see it!”
He smiled and said, “Sara, then I would like to thank you in advance.”
Sara replied shyly: “What are you doing so politely with me…”
He smiled slightly and said to Philip and his wife:
“Uncle and Auntie, let’s set off to the hotel now. I have already arranged things over there.”
“Okay!” Philip nodded, and then told the staff around him: “Take the cake off and take it to the hotel. Be careful and don’t make any mistakes.”
Several staff members hurriedly nodded and said: “Don’t worry, Mr. Gu, we must deliver the cake intact.”
Philip nodded slightly in satisfaction, and said to Charlie and Sara: “Then let’s go!”
Sara couldn’t help asking: “Dad! You came so far to celebrate Charlie’s birthday. Didn’t you prepare any birthday present for him?”
Philip blurted out: “Of course I’m prepared, do you think your father looks like the kind of person who can play ‘karate’?”
Sara asked in surprise:
“Why didn’t I see you preparing a gift? You asked them to take the cake to the hotel, and you didn’t say that there are other gifts to be taken together! Could it be that you really didn’t prepare?”
Charlie said hurriedly: “Sara, don’t talk nonsense, how can my elder Uncle give me gifts on my birthday…”
Philip laughed and said,
“Charlie, as an elder, it is, of course, reasonable for me to give birthday gifts to younger generations, and I am right.”
Lenan smiled and said:
“Old Gu, have you seen it? Your girl has started to turn her elbows outside before she gets married, and she’s starting to pick you up!”
Sara stuck her tongue out:
“Mom, I turned my elbow on Charlie, how can I be said to turn aside?”
Philip smiled and shook his head, and said to Sara: “After nearly 20 years, this is the first birthday for Charlie. How can I mishandle it?”
As he said, he pointed to the plane behind him and smiled: “Hey, this is the birthday gift I prepared for Charlie!”
“This plane was just produced from the Boeing production line in Seattle, USA at the beginning of this year.”
“With my relationships, I stepped up to customize it on time.”
“The modifications inside are all done in accordance with the top modification plan. From now on, it will be Charlie’s private jet!”
When Charlie heard this, he was shocked and hurriedly said: “Uncle, this gift is too expensive, I can’t accept it…”
Philip said with a blank face:
“You can’t accept it, anyway, I have someone fly it over. If you don’t want to accept it, then throw it here.”
Lenan next to him hurriedly said:
“Charlie, this is the heart of your Uncle, and it’s not too expensive, so please feel free to accept it!”
Charlie didn’t say anything to Philip. He just felt that it was a bit of a waste for the old man to suddenly give him a private plane.
And this is not an ordinary small private jet worth tens of millions or one or two hundred million. This is a private jet modified from a Boeing 737 passenger plane.
The ex-factory price of a Boeing 737 ordinary passenger plane is about 100 million US dollars, but this is only an ordinary passenger plane.
For private jets, an ordinary passenger plane is equivalent to a blank room, and the cost of the renovation and decoration of this blank room , At least accounted for more than half of the total value.
Calculated in this way, the value of this aircraft alone would be around one billion yuan.
Charlie was indeed a little ashamed to receive such a valuable gift for his birthday.
Seeing that he seemed to hesitate, Philip stepped forward and took his shoulders and said earnestly:
“Charlie, in my mind, you are just like my son. You now have your own career, and you often need to move around.”
“It’s much more convenient for you to have your own private jet flying back and forth across the country and even around the world.”
Charlie said seriously: “Uncle, in fact, the Wade family also has a spare private jet in Aurous Hill. Generally speaking, it is enough for me. I really don’t want you to spend too much money.”
Philip said with a very firm expression: “The Wade family’s private jet belongs to the Wade family. The plane that your uncle gave you is your own.”
“Does it feel the same using your own things or other people’s things?”
“Besides, your relationship with the Wade family is not clear. If you have an awkward relationship with your grandfather one day, and use his plane again, wouldn’t it be a dwarf?”
As he said, he continued: “Besides, what is there to be polite about with your uncle? It’s just a plane, it’s only 1 billion at best. I’m a person who almost died once. There is so much money and nowhere to spend it. It’s also very painful.”
Lenan on the side also hurriedly agreed: “Yes, Charlie, you can accept it happily, look at your uncle’s age, he gave you a birthday gift, and he has to ask you to accept it.”
When Charlie heard this, he immediately realized that he was indeed a little too outspoken.
The more expensive the gift, the more importance he is given byUncle and his wife. If he shirks repeatedly, it will hurt their feelings for him.
So Charlie nodded immediately and said, “Thank you, Uncle and Auntie. From now on, I will also have a private jet!”
As soon as Philip heard this, he laughed suddenly, shook the big hand on Charlie’s shoulder, and said with a smile: “Come! Let’s go to the restaurant!”
Charlie invited Philip and his wife to sit in the back row of his BMW 760, and then opened the door of the co-pilot for Sara. Before he finally got into the car, he told Issac: “Mr. Issac, let your car be in front. Open the way, let’s go directly to Classical Mansion now.”
Charlie had already talked with Orvel before, that he was going to entertain guests at Classical Mansion today, so the entire restaurant was not open for business today.
Orvel also turned away everything at hand and rushed to the restaurant as a supervisor early in the morning.
From the security work and service process of the entire restaurant to the freshness of every dish, raw materials, and tableware to be prepared today, Orvel basically inspected everything in advance more than once.
When Issac opened the road ahead and led Charlie to leave the airport together, he had already informed Orvel.
Orvel immediately asked all the service personnel to line up in the parking lot at the entrance of Classical Mansion to prepare for the welcome. At the same time, he also ordered many younger brothers to guard both sides of the entrance, and asked them not to let any other people in.
After all, Sara, who is with Charlie, is one of the hottest stars in the country today. If her meal in Classical Mansion is revealed, she will be on the gossip news immediately. Orvel is extremely loyal to Charlie, so naturally, takes care of this.
He can’t leave any hidden dangers to Charlie.
When the convoy drove into the parking lot, Orvel led a group of waiters waiting at the door.
As soon as Charlie stopped the car, he took the lead to step forward, first opened the two rear doors and the co-pilot’s door, and said politely to Philip, his wife, and Sara: “Welcome three distinguished guests to Classical Mansion!”
Then he opened the main driving door and said to Charlie: “Master Wade, the boxes are ready, let’s go in now.”
Charlie nodded and said, “You have worked hard.”
“Should have!”
Issac got out of the car at this time and said to Charlie: “Master, I’ll be waiting at the door. If you have anything to do, please tell me at any time.”
Charlie hurriedly said, “Why are you waiting at the door? Let Orvel arrange it. You can find a box to sit down and have a bite. I’ll come over and have a drink with you in a while.”
Orvel said quickly: “No problem Master, wrap it around me!”
When Issac heard this, he was really touched.
At any time, Charlie would think in his heart that he and Orvel as subordinates were indeed much better than ordinary wealthy young masters!
So he respectfully said: “Everything is subject to the arrangements of the young master!”
Charlie nodded, and Orvel said: “Master, you four, please come with me first!”
Afterward, the four followed Orvel to the main entrance of Classical Mansion.
Sara remembered the cake and hurriedly said to Orvel: “Mr. Orvel, the staff will send a customized cake in a while. Could you please arrange a suitable dining car, and I will help push the cake to the box.”
“This cake is very special. Precious, so please make the staff be careful when arranging all this and don’t spoil the cake, thank you!”
Orvel said without hesitation: “Miss Gu, you are polite, I must arrange it properly!”
After that, he led the crowd all the way to the diamond box of Classical Mansion. At this time, the box was extremely clean and tidy, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as spotless.
Eight cold dishes have been placed on the huge round table. There are four types of meat and four vegetarians, and each one is extremely elegant.
In the center of the round table, there are two bottles of collector’s Moutai and two bottles of Romani Conti red wine worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
A total of four sets of exquisite tableware were placed on the table. Next to each tableware, there was also a golden copybook on which a lot of information was written with very elegant brush writing.
Orvel said to Charlie, “I have arranged a recipe in advance. The order, materials, and characteristics of each dish are written on the list. Four VIPs can have a look and understand. , If you have any reservations or other needs, you can tell me at any time!”
Philip picked up one of the posts and looked at it, and exclaimed: “This handwriting in lower case is really beautiful! The paper is also very elegant!”
As he said, he put the post under his nose and smelled it, and exclaimed: “This ink has a strong scent. It shouldn’t smell modern, right?”
Orvel couldn’t help giving a thumbs up, and admired:
“Mr. Gu has really clever eyes. This was written by a calligrapher from Aurous Hill, and it was made in Hui ink made in the ear of the 5th emperor of the Ming Dynasty.”
Philip couldn’t help but admired: “Mr. Orvel is too meticulous in his facts. Such a good service, even if I haven’t seen it in Eastcliff!”
Orvel said hurriedly: “You tell me, Mr. Gu, I usually can’t do this in the best of restaurants this day, but today it was Master Wade who explained in advance to entertain distinguished guests, so I just took a little more thought…”
Philip gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: “Mr. Orvel has been troubled!”
Orvel respectfully said: “It is such a pleasure to serve you!”
After speaking, he said to Charlie again: “Master Wade, I will not be here to delay your meal with the guests. I will deliver the cake at the request of the caregiver when it arrives. If you have any needs, please call at any time!”
Charlie nodded slightly, and said to Orvel: “Orvel, order three cups of plain water.”
When Orvel heard Charlie say that he should prepare water, he immediately said, “Master, do you want me to soak some good tea and send it over? They were all picked from Suzhou and Hangzhou just two days ago and sent to Aurous Hill. Indeed the quality is very good.”
Orvel obviously didn’t know why Charlie asked him to prepare water, so Charlie smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said, “Don’t be so troublesome, just prepare water directly.”
After that, Charlie said again: “Oh, by the way, help me prepare a fruit knife.”
Although Orvel didn’t know why, he immediately nodded and said, “Okay Master, I will prepare now and deliver it right away!”
Philip, his wife, and Sara also didn’t understand why Charlie wanted water and a fruit knife, but they didn’t even ask.
Immediately, Charlie smiled and said, “Uncle, Auntie, and Sara, let’s take a seat first!”
“Okay!” Philip laughed and said, “Charlie, today is your birthday. I am so happy. We have to drink two glasses of everything!”
Charlie nodded without hesitation and said, “No problem, Uncle! I’ll accompany you as much as you drink!”
After that, he took the initiative, opened a bottle of Moutai, and poured two cups for himself and Philip.
Sara also hurriedly opened the Romani Conti red wine, slowly poured it into the decanter, and said to Charlie: “Charlie, I still have a show at night, so I can’t drink too much. I will respect you and my parents. I won’t drink too much just a cup, and if I have a chance after the show, I’ll accompany you to drink more!”
Charlie smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter, drinking more will not delay your business.”
Sara sticks out her tongue: “The performance at night is so important. I don’t dare to make any mistakes. If I drink too much and go crazy on the stage, the jokes don’t matter. The key is that if the performance is ruined, it will be over.”
