Rothschild was already in full swing in the 18th century. The rapid development of European industry and commerce in the 19th century gave birth to the prosperity of the financial industry, and the revival of Europe in the 20th century brought unprecedented space to the financial industry, and for 250 years, Mayer's five sons and sons' sons continued the myth of the Roche family. However, as the descendants of the Roche entered the modern business philosophy and lifestyle, most of the dozens of luxurious castles built by the family across Europe have been dilapidated or alienated, only Fynard's estate is still intact, continuing to tell the story of the Roche family to the world. This rebel, who is not familiar with trade routes and does not like patina, has used patina to pile up this art estate that future generations can appreciate.

The original architectural design of the Wardsden Manor was a strictly symmetrical rectangle with a large area, and the façade of the garden alone was 77 meters long, and at the request of Feynard, the architectural design was revised numerous times, no less than four times between December 1874 and March 1875, and later, the length of the garden façade was reduced by 10 meters. The extant façade view of Destaille also shows that the original design was more minimalist and artistic in its decoration than in reality. There is no doubt that the manor is constructed using state-of-the-art technology. What is particularly striking is that all of the main bedrooms on the first floor have been designed as separate suites, each with its own en-suite living room, washroom, bedroom and dressing room. It was definitely an innovation at the time, and the source of inspiration was either Fernard or Destellle. The answer remains a mystery to this day. It wasn't until 1910 that this novel design reappeared, and the architectural community received rave reviews and credited it to the Americans.

After two years of careful preparation, the final design was set for 1877. Fynard finalized that the main body of the building was a long and narrow strip, about 48 meters long, with two wings of square observation pavilions, and attic floors with skylights to add to the sense of space. There is a circular tower on the east and west sides, and a larger one on the west side, facing the garden. The result is a more compact and upright design than De Sitoille's original proposal, with a unique asymmetrical beauty. One of the best aspects of the original design is that the width of the main building is so small that the interior viewer can always have an unobstructed view of the outdoor landscape. Each of the main rooms on the ground floor has a view of the garden, which is intended to remind people that the Wardsden Manor is primarily used for summer getaways. After the foundation was completed, the construction of Wardstein Manor was extremely efficient, and the two major problems of water and transportation were easily resolved by Fennard. In response to the lack of water at the top of the mountain, Feinard built a huge underground cistern that was so large that he could even drive a yacht in it. To facilitate the delivery of building materials, he borrowed tramway tracks built in 1871 by the third Duke of Buckingham to transport personal goods. "Other building materials used for farms or cottages, as well as trees and bushes, had to be pulled up to the top of the hill for miles by car," Fynard wrote. We imported Percheron specifically from Normandy. Compared to the Shire breed, Pershma has less stamina, but it travels faster and is less expensive. ”

The gardens and vegetation at Wardstein Manor are also unique. The transitions between the house and the steps, the garden and the parking lot are very gentle, and the boundaries between the artificial and the natural no longer exist. The north side of the estate is densely planted with trees, mostly safflower horse chestnuts and pines, mostly Austrian pines. One of the great views that make up the hike. Modern people can't help but marvel at the peculiar color combination of trees and bushes.

Fynard inherited his family's preference for luxurious brightness and intricate sophistication in furnishings. For this reason, dealers often resorted to guò decoration to "improve" 18th-century minimalist objects, such as the use of gilding, decorative porcelain tiles or inlaid panels.

Of all the rooms at Wardstein Manor, the red parlor is generally considered to be the most elegant, and resplendent of gold. The design of the house also seamlessly reflects the traditional hierarchy, with the highest reception room conveying a sense of majesty and understated luxury. In contrast, the white living room has a bright and transparent tone, which is very different.

At that time, Fynard hired two decoration companies to prepare the fabrics for the interior. French companies supply precious textiles, ranging from historic antiquities to modern pieces that imitate 18th-century designs, while British companies offer fabrics for everyday decoration and to cover chests. In his quest for perfection, Fernard spared no expense in the purchase of precious fabrics, the most famous of which was the carpet purchased from the French royal company Savonne. Wardsden Manor is home to a number of outstanding pieces from the royal factory. For example, the carpet in front of the fireplace on the first floor was originally made by Louis XIV for the Palace of Versailles. In addition, Louis XIV ordered that two of the 104 carpets woven for the Louvre promenade, begun in 1665, go to the estate of Fernard. This combination of old and new fabrics shows the subtlety of the tone and colour in the interior design of Wardsden Manor, as the reuse of old materials softens the bright new rooms, perfectly reflecting the dignified elegance of the noble estate.

Under the guidance of Jessica, Chen Feng walked into this wealthy manor with a history of more than 200 years, which is a solidified history and has witnessed the glory of the Jewish Red Shield family.

The garden is dotted with 18th-century sculptures, including early 18th-century sculptures of Pluto and Proserpina in the fountain of the Farne Palace. An Italian sculpture group depicting the beauty of the four seasons, flanked by six early 18th-century Flemish vases flanked by steps from the house to the flower garden, each carved with a classic mythological image. The northern fountain is home to sculptures of a man with a human head and a fishtail, a seahorse riding a seahorse, a sea conch blowing, and Neriedes, a sea nymph. Each piece is from the hands of famous artists, and it is priceless. The garden is designed to be circular and visitors can stroll or ride in a horse-drawn carriage, lined with artistic sculptures and natural beauty.

In the garden near the aviary, there is an 18th-century Italian marble sculpture by the Florentine sculptor Vittorio Barbie, "Young Bacchus and a Ram". Laurent Delvaux's statue of Herris overlooks a miniature valley that mimics the Pont de Tay. Past rockeries and caves, the trail leads to the "zoo", where goats, camels and other exotic animals come in. The glass conservatory was filled with rare plants such as precious orchids, marmison carnations, and flamingos that were as precious as any of the works of art at the Wardsden estate at the time.

"Jessica, you've really seen this manor. Chen Feng said to Jessica with some emotion, "This manor covers an area of at least 100 hectares, right?"

Jessica beside her smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you for the compliment, this manor is indeed quite good, covering an area of 300 hectares." ”

Chen Feng originally thought that this manor covered an area of more than 100 hectares, but he didn't expect it to be so big. For example, in Chen Feng's memory, the Shanghai Botanical Garden is the largest municipal-level botanical garden in China, and it covers an area of only 81.86 hectares, which is the size of nearly four botanical gardens.

"It really deserves to be the world's number one family!" Chen Feng sighed again.

"Actually, it's not our family anymore. Jessica laughs and explains, "In 1957, Wardsden Estate was bequeathed to the British National Trust and opened to the public two years later. This time, because of my engagement banquet, I invited a lot of celebrities from all walks of life, so I borrowed this place temporarily. ”

"Oh. Gifted to the National Trust?" Chen Feng still just learned that the Wardsden Manor had been donated. Founded in 1895, Chen Feng is a non-governmental charitable environmental protection organization in the United Kingdom that has had a significant impact on the cause of international environmental protection. It was born in the late 19th century in the context of the deterioration of the living environment and social order in British cities, and its goal was to permanently preserve those historical monuments or natural places with British traditional characteristics for the British people. Perhaps handing over Wardsden Manor to them was the best protection for it. Of course, Chen Feng didn't know that although the manor was given to the National Trusteeship, the huge expenses for maintaining the manor were still borne by the Luo family.

"Yes, this estate is the dream of my ancestor, Ferdinand, the fourth generation of Roche. He was born in 1839 to a family member in Vienna and a mother to a cousin of his father in England. He had no interest in finance, was a rebel against family tradition, and loved art since he was a child, and liked to wrap all kinds of gold and silver objects that his father bought. His incompetence disappointed his father, and the father and son were at odds. Therefore, because of his mother, he often came to the UK, loved the atmosphere of history and art, and found his happiness by marrying his mother's English niece. I don't want my wife to die in childbirth 18 months after marriage, and I am so painful that I never remarry in my life, and I have never gotten rid of my depression and sadness in my life. Later, after the death of his father, he returned to Vienna. He sold all his father's shares, returned to England and bought 3,000 hectares of land, and built this exquisite and luxurious country manor for holiday leisure and entertaining guests. The house is mostly for the use of guests, except for his own living space, and many places are laid out with the convenience of the guests in mind. The estate was one of the first in Britain to use electricity and elevators. In the early years, Queen Victoria visited here in person, and she was not only very interested in the decoration of the manor, but also surprised by the electric light, moving the electric door back and forth, and later sent the court craftsmen to study and study. ”

For this period of history. Chen Feng's memory is not in the library, and after listening to it, he is somewhat embarrassed. This is obviously a gentleman's son, Fynard, who is really rich, or his father is too rich, but no matter how rich he is, when he dies, there will be nothing, and in the end it is not given to the National Trust.

"So, you also belong to your Luo family, the Vienna family?" Chen Feng asked Jessica with some curiosity.

"That's it. Jessica nodded, "You should know, our family is an intermarriage, and the relationship between them is very complicated, and my bloodline almost includes the original five branches of our family. In recent years, our family has slowly loosened the rigid rules of intermarriage within the clan, allowing us to intermarry with other members of the Jewish family, and I think my current marriage is that their Morgan family is the most prestigious family among our Jews. ”

Hearing that Jessica was talking about someone else, talking about her own engagement banquet, Chen Feng certainly sighed secretly for her in his heart. Being in a wealthy family seems to be good, food and clothing are worry-free, but sometimes marriage is not free, this is better for men, for women, it is undoubtedly a gamble with an uncertain future, if you meet a bad husband, then this life is destined not to be happy.

"Jessica, who is your grandfather now, and what is his name? Is he in the manor now?" The main purpose of Chen Feng's agreement to come here this time is to get in touch with the heavyweights of their Rothschild family, communicate and learn.

Karina replied, "My grandfather's name is David Rothschild, and he is now the chairman of the Rothschild Financial Group. He won't be here until tomorrow morning. ”

Although Chen Feng does not have the memory of David Rothschild in his memory, he knows that he is now the chairman of Rothschild Financial Group, and he knows that he is the head of the Rothschild family of this generation. Rothschild Group is one of Europe's oldest family banks. It has a history of more than 200 years and has established offices in more than 30 countries around the world. Registered in Geneva, Switzerland, the Group is a private asset management bank, and the group's assets under management today reach about $130 billion, which is not to be underestimated.

"If I can, I want to formally communicate with your grandfather tomorrow and ask him about the knowledge of world finance, do you think it's okay?" Chen Feng said his request.

Jessica nodded with a smile when she heard this: "Of course you can, in fact, my grandfather also admires you very much, and if he knows that you are the boss behind Huateng, he must be very interested in you." I think the two of you will have a great chat. ”

"Thank you, I'm very much looking forward to talking to your grandpa. I think he's a great guy. Chen Feng said sincerely.

Jessica was of course very happy when she heard Chen Feng praising her grandfather, and chuckled: "My grandfather must be very happy if he knows what you said." I remember him saying to me before that he thought you were a genius and that your musical achievements would be a legend. My grandfather rarely praised people like that. It is precisely because he admires you very much that he did not object to my star-chasing behavior towards you at the beginning. ”

Chen Feng also smiled: "I am honored to be praised by him." ”

"Long, I'd better take you to the guest room for a rest. You must be a little tired from a long flight. Jessica said very considerately, in her dark black eyes, tenderness flowed, although the privacy was very good, she was still captured by Chen Feng, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. I thought to myself, you are married tomorrow, and you are still so tender to me, if your fiancé sees it, he will definitely misunderstand.

However, on the surface, Chen Feng pretended not to know, nodded and said, "Then it will trouble you." ”

"Yes, you have come to my engagement wedding, of course I will treat you well, and after you have rested for a while, I have prepared a sumptuous dinner for you. Jessica said happily, a slight smile curling into the corners of her mouth.

Then, Kajesica took Chen Feng and officially walked into the long and narrow main building of the manor. Judging from the photographs displayed on the porch, Churchill was the guest of honor at the estate, and almost all British prime ministers have been here in recent times, including Queen Elizabeth II. Fernard devoted himself to the estate, and the style was influenced by the French style, which is considered to be the best of 18th-century decorative arts. His collection is comprehensive, with a focus on all kinds of furnishings. For example, in a prominent place in a long living room on the right hand side of the ground floor, there is a beautiful giant golden elephant music clock, made by the French watchmaker H. Martinet in 1774. It is said that this man was the maker of several music boxes in the Forbidden City's clock exhibition hall, all of which, in Qianlong's words, were clever gadgets, and he later opened a workshop in Beijing.

Porcelain is another outstanding feature of the estate's collection, and each room has a large variety of vases and carvings, and the colors are bright, which should be of the best of the time. There are a lot of life-size porcelain carvings such as turkeys and lambs, etc., limited by the firing technology at that time, the porcelain carvings are all white, and there are cracks when they are baked, but the boldness and delicacy of these British porcelain carvings are rare in porcelain collections.

Oil paintings are also an important part of Fernard's collection, and the upstairs and downstairs rooms contain hundreds of large and small English portraits and works by early Dutch painting masters. The two huge Venetian paintings in the waiting room, painted by Franesco Guardi in the mid-18th century, depict the life of this Italian water city in vivid detail, reflecting that the 18th century oil painting has moved away from the youthful rebellion of the Renaissance and has become more pragmatic and mature. For more than 100 years, Wardsden Estate has hosted royal celebrities such as Queen Elizabeth II, Queen Victoria, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, former US Presidents Ronald Reagan and Clinton. Today, it is open to the public as the Wardsden Manor Museum, and the Rothschild family's collection has shone brighter over time.

The 45 rooms feature the finest French furniture and decorative art from the 18th century, combined with magnificent English portraiture and works by Dutch painting masters. The carvings are almost pretentious, and all the wall cabinets and desks are not only heavy, but also intricately intricately carved. In the morning living room, there was a table, which turned out to be the object of Louis 16, and there was a gilded badge of Louis on it. A relief bust of Louis 16 hangs on the lintel of a living room, and on the floor is a finely woven silk carpet of Louis's favorite, with the head of the sun god embroidered in the center and a ripple pattern that pushes from the center to the periphery. The blanket is 180 years old and still looks as good as new.

The choice of wall materials is also very exquisite. Some rooms are made of French carved wood panels, some are painted with gold, and several are made of scarlet silk wallpaper, which seems to imitate some rooms of the Palace of Versailles. The second floor is for guests to spend the night, and unlike the first floor, which is mostly family-owned, it is more luxurious than the bedroom of Queen Victoria's favorite Osborne Manor.

The guest room where Jessica took Chen Feng to rest was on the second floor, and when she walked into the room, she saw that the decoration inside was extremely luxurious, with carpets, wall materials, and oil paintings, all of which were very dazzling and full of heaviness.

And Chen Feng prefers the curtains in this room, which are silk embroidered flowers and plants on a white background, simple and elegant, without losing luxury, if you look carefully, the silk threads on the embroidery are still shiny. The curtains are carefully wrapped in a layer of tulle, which shows the care of the housekeepers, and the windows open to the garden outside.

"Long, how is it here?, isn't it?" Jessica asked Chen Feng with a slight smug look.

Of course, Chen Feng couldn't find anything bad, so he smiled: "This is not worse than the presidential suite of the hotel, of course it is good." ”

"That's good, this is the bedroom, and the bathroom is there...... You must be a little tired from a long flight, so let's rest here, and in two hours, I'll call you again and go to dinner together, okay?"

Of course, Chen Feng has no opinion. "Okay, then I'll trouble you. I'll rest for a while. ”

"Okay, then I'll go out first, you can rest first. After Jessica finished speaking, she was about to go out. Chen Feng suddenly remembered the bodyguards who followed him, they had not followed the manor together before, but waited at the gate of the manor, so he immediately stopped him: "Please wait a minute." ”

"Oh, is there anything else?" Jessica turned to look at him again, a little confused.

"That's right, those people who came with me, please take the trouble to arrange it. ”

Jessica smiled slightly: "It has been arranged a long time ago, they have already been arranged by my housekeeper to live in the house outside the manor, in fact, if you ask for it, they can also live here." ”

Thinking of the priceless antiques and decorations in these guest rooms, Chen Feng didn't dare to recruit all his bodyguards to live here, plus he was here, there was absolutely no problem in terms of security, so naturally there was no need to call all the bodyguards in.

"No, I trust your Rothschilds' security. Chen Feng said with a smile. He came all the way just now, but he saw the shadows of many bodyguards.

"Thank you. It's not that I'm boasting, our Rothschild family has experienced more than 200 years of ups and downs, and we have always attached great importance to security, plus people from all walks of life will come here tomorrow as guests, and the police department also attaches great importance to it, and has already arranged for relevant personnel to be stationed here. ”

Jessica's words certainly made Chen Feng feel more at ease.

"Okay, I'm sorry for you. Chen Feng said politely.

"Then you have a good rest, and in two hours, I will call you again, bye-bye. ”

After Jessica finished speaking, she officially took her leave.

After Chen Feng closed the door, he took out a change of clothes from the luggage he was carrying, and then went to the bathroom to take a good shower. After taking a shower, Chen Feng took the initiative to call Hongye and inform him that he had arrived in the United Kingdom, and that he would go home immediately after Jessica's engagement ceremony was over tomorrow.

Because Hongye has had three lessons, this time he seems to be very tolerant, and he doesn't mean to be jealous, but just tells Chen Feng to talk and go home early.

After talking to Hongye on the phone, Chen Feng called Karina again.

After the phone rings only once, it is answered.

"Hey, Xiao Feng, have you arrived in the UK?" Karina's voice was surprised.

"Yes, I just arrived an hour ago, and now at the Wardsden estate of the Rothschilds, tomorrow is Jessica's engagement, and after attending this engagement, I will go back. Before leaving Hong Kong, Chen Feng had already explained the situation to Karina. I already know the reason why he came to the UK this time, and I am also deeply impressed by Jessica, the number one fan that Chen Feng claims, because Chen Feng explained that Jessica rushed out of the guest seat in front of hundreds of millions of TV viewers around the world at the Oscars and hugged Chen Feng. At that time, this incident was also a big entertainment news, but it seems that a few days after it became popular, this entertainment news seemed to have disappeared collectively, and it was difficult to see the news of this enthusiastic female fan suddenly hugging Chen Feng in the media, but despite this, she still left a very deep impression on the countless viewers who watched the Hollywood awards ceremony in front of the TV at that time.

"That'...... If you come back, will you still pass through Hong Kong?" Karina asked very eagerly.

Chen Feng shook his head and said helplessly: "No, I went back to Xiuzhou directly." ”

Karina couldn't help but feel a burst of disappointment in her heart, barely cheered up, and pretended to be calm: "Oh, that...... Xiao Ruirui's birthday, let's meet again. ”

"Okay, see you then. Before Chen Feng left Hong Kong, he sent an invitation to Karina because of his son's first birthday party. And this is also the decision of the whole family.

Karina wanted to say something to Chen Feng again, or listen to Chen Feng's gentle words, but it was obvious that Chen Feng's mind was not on romance and love at this time.

"Hmm...... Then I'm hanging...... I had just come home and my baby would wake up and breastfeed. Karina said.

"Oh, let's do it for now, I just took a hot shower, and I didn't sleep much on the plane, so get some rest. Chen Feng said as he spoke.

"Well, okay, I'm hanging. ”

After the two hung up the phone, Chen Feng lay on the bed to rest, but he had never slept on the plane before, but after such a long flight, he felt a little tired.

In a daze, there was a knock on the door, and soon Jessica's voice came: "Long, it's me! It's time for dinner." ”

"Okay, I'll be right here. Chen Feng got off the bed, and after tidying up in the dressing mirror for a while, he walked over and opened the door.

Seeing that Chen Feng had changed into Armani casual clothes again, looking even more outstanding, Jessica's eyes flashed with brilliance, and she smiled sweetly: "Long, please come with me." ”

Chen Feng nodded at her with a smile and followed Jessica all the way to the restaurant on the first floor.

I saw a plate of candles lit at both ends of the rectangular dining table, several dishes had been placed on it, and the disk player next to it was playing "Moon River" soothingly, this atmosphere was completely the atmosphere of a candlelight dinner, Chen Feng couldn't help but be a little stunned for a while.

"Jessica, ...... are you" Chen Feng frowned slightly, looking at Jessica with doubt.

"Long, I've always had a dream of having a candlelit dinner with you. Would you please grant me this wish before you get engaged tomorrow? Otherwise, I will have nothing but regrets for the rest of my life. Jessica said pitifully, her face full of pleading.

Chen Feng was a little hesitant for a while, but in fact, his stomach was a little hungry, and the various delicious dishes on the table exuded a charming aroma, Chen Feng really wanted to feast.

"Long, tomorrow is my engagement ceremony, and after tomorrow, I'm going to be someone else's fiancée, and now I want to ask you to leave me a good memory, okay? Jessica whispered softly again.

Experiencing the temptation of the fragrance of vegetables, and seeing Jessica's hopeful gaze again, Chen Feng really couldn't refuse.

"Okay, Jessica, I promise to share dinner with you, but you have to be clear, you're going to be someone else's fiancée tomorrow, and it's impossible for us to be friends. So this candlelight dinner, let's treat it as a dinner party between ordinary friends. ”

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he took the lead and sat on the chair of the nearest section.

Seeing that Chen Feng finally agreed, Jessica couldn't help but show a smug smile on the corner of her mouth, and stepped forward to sit opposite Chen Feng.

After the two sat down, Jessica picked up the rattle on the dining table and jingled the bell for a while, but after a while, a middle-aged man in his forties who looked like a butler in a suit and leather shoes walked over and nodded politely to Jessica and Chen Feng.

"It's time to serve. Jessica commanded, and the butler bowed slightly and nodded.

Jessica introduced to Chen Feng: "This time we ate authentic French cuisine, which is characterized by a wide selection of ingredients, such as snails and foie gras, which are delicious in French cuisine. French cuisine is also more particular about eating half-cooked or raw food, such as steak and lamb leg are characterized by half-cooked and tender, seafood oysters can also be eaten raw, and roasted wild duck can generally be eaten when it is six ripe. French cuisine focuses on seasoning, and there are many varieties of seasoning. There are strict rules on what kind of dishes to use and what kind of wine to use, such as wine for clear soup, brandy for seafood, and various liqueurs or brandy for desserts. In addition, there is a wide variety of French dishes and cheeses. The chef I'm inviting this time is a famous chef from Provence, so let's try his craft later. ”

Chen Feng smiled and nodded.

Soon, the butler led several waiters to come up with all kinds of dishes, and put them on the table one by one, and in a short time, the table was full. The butler himself opened a bottle of red wine and poured half a glass into the goblet in front of them.

"Long, this time, I specially prepared truffles, it will be a little while before they come up, you can try this smoked silver carp first, this is an appetizer, it tastes very good. Jessica explains.

"Okay, I'll try it. Chen Feng was already hungry, so he picked up a knife and fork, began to eat, and swallowed a silver carp in a few bites. His eating appearance is obviously not elegant enough, but in Jessica's eyes, it is indescribably sexy, and his eyes are almost stunned by obsession.

"How's it going, does it taste good?" asked Jessica.

"Well, it was smoked just right, and it didn't smell fishy, which was really nice. Chen Feng nodded in approval.

Seeing that Chen Feng was satisfied, Jessica smiled happily: "As long as you like it, you can try this oxtail soup again." ”

Chen Feng oxtail soup has the effects of nourishing qi and blood, strengthening muscles and bones, and tonifying the kidney, so naturally you will not miss it. You're welcome, I spooned a bowl in a row, and drank it after a few strokes of the bowl.

His actions this time are even more indecent, completely inconsistent with Western dining etiquette, but as the so-called "lover's eyes are out of Xi Shi", and Jessica has long been tired of seeing those suits and leather shoes, formal and decent, a serious gentleman, occasionally seeing Chen Feng's "natural expression" so informal, but it is fresh and appreciative, it is conceivable that if people know that she actually had a candlelight dinner with Long, and moreover, she can also see his true temperament, I don't know how many people will be envious.

Seeing that Chen Feng had drunk oxtail soup, Jessica introduced again: "Come, let's try this foie gras." French foie gras is one of the world's three major culinary treasures, along with caviar and truffles, and is a traditional French dish. The subtlety of foie gras lies in its melt-in-your-mouth, softness and delicateness, lingering on the lips and teeth, and an endless aftertaste, which can arouse the infinite desire of the taste buds. It is recorded that about 4,000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians were addicted to goose meat, and it was the Romans who really discovered the fun and deliciousness of eating foie gras more than 2,000 years ago. Later, in the southwestern countryside of France, people used foie gras to make zuò aspicnic and pâté and eat it with French bread, which was simple and easy to accept, and became famous. I'm a big fan of foie gras, and you can try it too. ”

Of course, Chen Feng was not polite, picked up the fork, and inserted several mouthfuls in one go, and it didn't take long for most of the plate of foie gras to be swept into Chen Feng's stomach.

"Let's try this braised beef cheek stuffed with French duck liver, which retains the very traditional French cooking method of wrapping beef cheeks in pork net, because many chefs nowadays don't need to cook this method. The beef cheeks are matched with the duck liver, an unexpected fit, the taste is tender and smooth, the flavor is strong and fragrant, and the beef noodles are wrapped in pork net fat, which is the careful design that increases the aroma of the beef, and it is a must when paired with the treasured French red wine. ”

Jessica is undoubtedly a very good food commentator, and under her introduction, Chen Feng's appetite can't help but be aroused.

"Come, let's have a drink. Jessica raised her glass and invited Chen Feng for wine.

Chen Feng followed and raised, and the two said "cheers" together, and when they were about to raise a glass and drink, they heard the door of the restaurant being pushed open, and a handsome and elegant man in a suit and leather shoes came in.

"Jessica, I'm coming, you...... You guys...... What is this doing?" After he finished speaking, he saw Chen Feng, who happened to turn to look at him, he was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed, "You...... Are you long?"

At this time, Chen Feng was also very puzzled, he didn't know who the man in front of him was, but seeing his appearance, Chen Feng guessed that this was obviously the eldest young master of the Morgan family who was about to get engaged to Jessica tomorrow.

Jessica took the opportunity to introduce: "Long, this is Edward Morgan from the Morgan family, who is the protagonist of tomorrow's engagement ceremony. ”

Hearing that he was the one who was about to become Jessica's fiancé, Chen Feng couldn't help but look at him a few more times, almost one meter eight tall, his body looked very strong, with short spiritual hair, deep thick eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and his appearance was quite handsome, but his two eyes looked a little slender, which slightly destroyed his overall handsomeness. However, Chen Feng immediately felt embarrassed, he was actually having a candlelight dinner with her fiancée, and he felt like he had been caught and raped. ”

"Long, is that really you......? This...... It's really hard to believe. Edward Morgann said with some excitement.

"Hello, Edward, it's a pleasure to meet you. After all, in other people's territory, Chen Feng was still relatively polite to him, stood up from his seat, turned around, faced him, and stretched out his hand.

Edward Morgan hurriedly stepped forward and held Chen Feng's one hand tightly with both hands.

"Long, I'm so glad to see you here. Edward Morgan said happily.

However, he didn't be happy for long, and quickly continued with the previous question: "Jessica, how did you meet Long? Jessica didn't have any strange expression, but admitted calmly and generously, "I am good friends with him, so this time he flew all the way to attend my engagement ceremony." ”

"Oh, is that so?" said Edward Morgan, blinking, "so you were ...... just now Dinner?"

"yes, we're having a candlelit dinner. Jessica looked innocent and romantic, and generously admitted it.

This made Chen Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly, now that "everyone has obtained all the stolen goods", even if he denies it, he can't deny it. However, if you don't explain, it will be tantamount to acquiescence, so Chen Feng finally spoke: "Edward, don't have any misunderstanding, this time is purely a dinner between ordinary friends." ”

Edward Morgan smiled and said, "Of course I can't get me wrong, long, but I know that you're only nineteen years old, and you already have a fiancée. ”

Jessica frowned when she saw Edward Morgan say this. She has calculated to use long as a shield this time, and it is best to let him retreat in difficulty, or be annoyed and angry, and at the worst it is better to humiliate him greatly, but looking at Edward's current appearance, he is obviously not fooled.
