Chapter 1137
At six o'clock in the evening, in a room on the third floor of the castle, Alice sat in front of the dressing table and quietly closed her eyes to accept makeup, the clothes on her body had been changed, the necklace and shoes had also been changed, she didn't bring other accessories, she just felt that it was very heavy, and there were three people around her, one of them was a hairstylist, one was a makeup artist, and the other was ..... It's my beloved mother, Xu Lina. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When she saw Xu Lina, Alice was still a little surprised, and after asking a few words, she learned that she had been running around in several other cities in France in the past few days, and as soon as she came back, she knew about the banquet at night, so she took the initiative to take over the responsibility of the makeup artist, and let her daughter sleep obediently without saying anything, and then took over by herself.
I don't know how long it took, the little girl was woken up, and after opening her eyes, she glanced at herself in the mirror, and saw that her hair that had been long was cut off again, and her hair was permed and slightly curled, and S's bangs looked very satisfied, compared to when she was in Korea, it seems, it looks better.
In the end, Alice couldn't say anything dissatisfied, and she didn't dare to say anything to complain about, although the ear clips on her ears were very awkward, but they were also good-looking, and she reluctantly accepted it, and touched the permed short hair a little unnaturally, the length was just at the chin, and the tail end was still slightly cocked outward, and she stood up and waited for the stylist to smooth out the wrinkled clothes because of sitting for a long time, and then slowly came back to her senses
"Mom, aren't you going?" Seeing that Xu Lina's clothes were still in civilian clothes, she asked curiously.
"I won't be able to, it's better to go to bed early, you can do it yourself, anyway, my father is here, and nothing will happen" Xu Lina yawned and patted her daughter's ass after tidying up Alice's hair and clothes, "I'll go to sleep, you go quickly, otherwise when there are more people, you don't want to talk again"
"Got it~ Have a good rest" Alice turned around and hugged her mother, smiled and let go of her hand, followed the servant and walked out.
Tonight, there is a banquet in the Miracle Forest, as a prelude to Xu Jianlin's birthday banquet, the people who were invited are some famous people, all of whom are famous figures in France, there are also some celebrities, government officials and businessmen, Xu Jianlin's reputation in France is much higher than that of any businessman, in this place in France, it is a person who has to give him a big face, and the people who received the invitation letter also rushed over as soon as possible.
Alice came to the back door of the hotel, and the reason why she didn't walk in from the main entrance was very simple, that is, she was afraid that there would be too many strangers, and she would become nervous, but as soon as she walked to the back garden, she saw a lot of people standing here chatting, and muttered in a low voice, "There are so many people, Shaffer, follow closely, don't disperse, otherwise I will be very uneasy"
Shaffel also had some understanding of Alice's views on strangers, so he naturally nodded his head, "This is what I was meant to do, Miss."
"Mmmm" Alice looked back at Shavre behind her, making sure that he would follow behind her, and her somewhat flustered heart slowly stabilized, and the tension disappeared a little, seeing the interior of the hotel where there were more and more people, she straightened her posture with a faint smile on her face, and saw Xu Jianlin, who was chatting with people in the hall, walked over with a smile.
"Grandpa"
In the middle of the hall, Xu Jianlin was still chatting with his business partner, and when he heard Alice's crisp voice that was a little out of place with the environment, he turned his head to look over, and saw that it was indeed his granddaughter, so he nodded lightly, "Xiaoxi, here, Lina."
"Mother is a little unwell, so I went to rest first" Alice walked into this circle, because of the existence of outsiders, she had to turn around and say something better, standing beside Xu Jianlin, seeing the two people opposite, she smiled politely and nodded.
Xu Jianlin could hear the meaning of Alice's words, smiled lightly, and said to the two people who had just talked, "Alain, Gérard, let me introduce to you, this is my granddaughter, Alice, Alice, this is the head brother of Chanel, the head of the Widmore family."
"Hello two gentlemen" Alice showed a standard business smile on her face, stretched out her hand and took the initiative to shake hands with the two elderly people in front of her, seeing that their appearance was estimated to be older than her grandfather, she didn't expect to be the head of Chanel.
The Vedmore brothers shook Alice's hand with a smile and said hello, but before they could speak, they were disturbed by someone else.
"Miss Alice, Mr. Xu" The person who came was the general and lieutenant colonel who had met in the morning, Stefan and Wellington came here, and unlike before, the two were now wearing suits.
"General Ablyar, Lieutenant Colonel Wellington" Xu Jianlin also nodded with a smile when he saw the two of them coming.
Alice looked at the two people curiously, and only remembered their names through Thea's reminder, and said hello, "Mr. Wellington, Mr. Stefan, good evening"
Xu Jianlin was a little surprised when he heard Alice be able to say their names, "Xiaoxi, do you know each other?"
"Well, we met in the morning at the racecourse, but I couldn't say hello to Mr. Stefan, I'm a little sorry" Alice tried her best to make herself look natural, in fact, she had already forgotten about them in her heart, and saying this sentence would also make the other party have a little more face.
"In this way, it just so happens that General Ablyar is a very famous major general in France, it's good for you to get to know each other" Xu Jianlin turned his head to look at the four guests in front of him, they all smiled friendly, took Alice's hand and put it in the crook of his arm, and continued with a smile, "This is my granddaughter who I love very much, Alice, very beautiful and smart, but a little unprofessional, I went to Asia to become a star, Gérard, I have purchased a lot of jewelry and clothes from your family, I can't help but give face"
"Mr. Xu, you are polite, Miss Alice is very beautiful, and the dress is also very luxurious" One of the Vedmore brothers stood up and took Xu Jianlin's words with a smile.
Alice listened to their conversation blankly, observed the appearance of the people around her with a serious face, and then knew their names through Thea's reminder, felt that her eyes were moving, turned her head curiously to look at her grandfather, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, grandpa"
"Take you to meet other people, there are many cooperative brands of our hotel, in France, there are more than a dozen, including insurance, wineries, ranches, fashion brands, and some estates and groups that provide food" Xu Jianlin replied softly, took Alice to the hall, and continued, "Grandpa met a lot of business partners when he was young, and now they are all old and dead, some of the family property was squandered and finally went bankrupt, and some of the family property became more and more successful, I hope you will be the latter"
"Grandpa, you're not old yet" Alice held Xu Jianlin's arm and said helplessly, with resentment in her tone, and said in a muffled voice, "You still look so young, what do you say old, don't worry, I will do a good job of the family business for you."
Xu Jianlin stopped, looked at the closed wooden door in front of him, turned his head to look at Alice and smiled, "Hope, don't let me down, take you to meet other people" As he spoke, he let the waiter on the side open the door and walked in with Alice.
In the next two hours, Alice kept greeting and greeting these people who looked at her with inexplicable eyes with a smile on her face, and several times she wanted to go out to breathe, but she was helplessly pulled by her grandfather and not allowed to leave, and forced herself to remember the names and appearance of these people before she gained the right to go out.
