Chapter 34 This Reception Is of High Taste
Then he takes the thermos and opens it.
In it is the sweet and soft white fungus porridge, which smells fragrant. David also smells the fragrance
as well, and says, "This is from Miss Lily. she said it’s a gift for thanking you."
"Sending me the white fungus porridge. It’s really down-to-earth." Louis looks at the pink thermos and
couldn't help laughing. He takes the coffee cup and pours the white fungus porridge into it.
It is sweet and warm.
"Mr. Louis, it is too sweet for you." David smells the scent and couldn't help saying, “Or I will eat it for
you, and then order a takeaway for."
Louis glances coldly at him, "No, go out and be busy with your job."
"..."
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, David goes to the translation department and returns the cleaned
thermos to Lily, "Miss Lily, here is your thermos."
"Oh, thank you. Actually, you can tell me and I will get it myself. " Lily smiles, “You don’t have to send it
yourself."
"It just happens that I am going to fetch for something." David thanks her, and hesitates when he is
leaving. Then he comes back and asks Lily, "Miss Lily, can you prepare one more for me next time?"
"Do you love to eat the dessert too?" Lily thinks that David shouldn't like dessert, "OK, I will ask my
mom for one more bottle."
David praises, "Your mother is really a good cook."
"She was a nanny and cooked for others before."
"Well, that makes sense."
It is strange that the more they talk, the more congenial they are.
Although Lily thinks that David is cold, and because he is an assistant, he always wears a strict face,
he is actually a warm man. He also has a cat and a German shepherd at home.
When they almost finish the talk, Lily asks him carefully, "Mr. Louis often comes to the company
recently. What’s going on?"
"It's okay, you just mind your own business." David knows she is indirectly asking the company, “If
there is something, it will only be the business of senior leaders, and it won't affect you."
Lily asks no more.
It is indeed true that even if there is a problem with the company, it is also a matter of senior
managements and it has nothing to do with them.
On Saturday morning, Lily goes to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
After waiting for a while, she gets two invalid marriage certificates, which makes her relaxed and a little
emotional.
The marriage that she thought would last to the end of her life ends up in lasting for just one year.
A moment later, and she goes to the shopping mall to buy vegetables. She is in good mood and buys a
few flowers. When she returns, she meets the courier.
Lily goes to the kitchen to deal with the hairy crabs, and then opens the big box. Inside is a neatly
folded champagne-colored dress, which is so beautiful.
Lily takes a deep breath.
A few months ago, she was honored to attend the VALENTINO's early Spring Show. She has seen this
skirt on the stage, and she has been staring at the model at the time. She even admired that the dress
is really beautiful, but it is too expensive.
Unexpectedly, she now has this dress.
"Is Joey with so many resources? She even gets VALENTINO's endorsements?" Lily mutters, looking
at the logo on the box, and she feels something strange.
In previous days, John loved to give her Valentino's couture and bags, and it seems like that John likes
this brand very much.
Is it from John?
Soon, Lily dismisses the idea again. She didn’t introduce her family to John. It’s impossible for John to
know her stupid sister. She must have thought too much.
At noon Lily just eats a bit
The Goose Villa is a little far from the city center. Lily still has to find someone to dress her up. After
fooling around at home in the afternoon, she leaves. It is already four o'clock when she finishes her
dressing.
Joey sends her a message saying that she hasn’t finished her film, and she asks Lily go to the Goose
Villa first.
Lily has no choice but leave by car alone.
Lily knows very little about the Goose Villa. It is said that it is a private manor that is surrounded by
mountains and rivers. As the environment is very nice, so the rich often holds receptions or parties.
It’s getting dark now. After the taxi goes up the mountain, Lily sees various luxury cars parked in the
manor’s open-air parking lot, most of which are limited series.
The whole manor is lit up, like a huge night pearl. Two rows of waiters stand in front of the arched gate.
The people who attend the reception are all elegantly dressed.
Just one minute after getting off the car, Lily has seen several acquaintances, all of whom are business
tycoons, and some are hard to see even in financial magazines, so Lily is slightly shocked. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
The scale of this reception is bigger than Joey says.
When Lily walks to the door, she is stopped by the waiter, "Miss, could you please show your ID card?"
Lily shows him the barcode.
The waiter looks at the phone and says to Lily apologetically, "Sorry, the invited party is Miss Joey. You
can't go in until she comes, and you can't go in alone."
What? Is the rule somewhat strict?
"Can you just let it go? It’s hot outside." After struggling for a while, Lily says, "I'll go in and sit where
you can see me, okay?"
"Miss, all around the manor, including the doorway, are equipped with air-condition, and it will not be
hot."
Lily is speechless.
Then Lily hears a low laugh coming from behind, and the familiar voice sends chill down her back.
"She's my friend." John in a black tuxedo approaches Lily, and says in a warm tone. Then he gives he
waiter a golden invitation card.
The waiter glances at the golden invitation card, and his expression immediately becomes respectful.
"It turns out to be Mr. John, I hope you have a good time at night."
"Thank you."
John turns his head to see Lily still standing there, his thin lips rising higher, "Do you come to this party
with your friend? I will take you in."
"No, no." Lily declines him, and moves a few steps aside. As soon as she meets John, she feels
difficult to breathe and a sense of fear appears from the bottom of her heart.
"I don't mean anything else, I just want to take you in."
Lily turns her head and says, "I'm fine standing here. The one I am waiting for is coming soon."
"Okay, I'm leaving now." John doesn’t force Lily anymore, and he quickly leaves. But when he goes to
the door, he glances at the woman under the stairs again, with a smile in his eyes.
His taste is not bad. His darling looks gorgeous in this dress.
When Lily sees John go in, she immediately wants to leave the villa, but before stepping out, she thinks
of Joey and dismisses her thoughts again.
John's company has huge market in Europe. Even if he doesn't have a business in America, he is still
famous. It is no surprise that he can come to this reception.
Joey finally enters the entertainment industry. She hasn’t gained a firm foothold yet. What she lacks are
resources and investors, and this kind of reception is very helpful for Joey to get resources.
Joey is her sister, so she has to help her.
Not long after that, a nanny car drives in. When the door opens, Joey hurries over with a dress.
"Sister, didn’t I just give you the barcode? Why are you still standing outside?"
"I don’t want to stand outside." Joey calls Lily stupid, and Lily glares at her angrily, "The waiter says that
you are the invited person, I can only enter when you come."
Joey looks helpless, "Which one is so rigid?"
"Well, let’s go."
The banquet hall on the first floor of the villa is as large as putting five basketball courts together. The
Moroccan-style decoration is magnificent and brilliant. The rich dressed elegantly chats happily.
In addition to black-haired and black-eyed Asians, there are also many blond-haired and white-skinned
Europeans in the crowd. They all look noble, and they seem to find business here.
Within three minutes, Lily's eyes have already patrolled the banquet hall.
This reception is really of high taste!
Joey is not as cautious as Lily. No matter who passes her, she will greet them first. Anyway, she has
her brother-in-law backing her up. She isn’t afraid!
Lily asks, "Where is the director you mentioned?"
"Ah? I… I'm looking for him..." Joey is a bit guilty. It is just an excuse for Lily to come to the reception
with her, and now it's a bit troublesome to patch up a lie.
Fortunately, there are many Europeans coming here. Joey sees a man whom she is very familiar with.
When she remembers that he is the director of a commercial film, she says, "Sister, it is
him!"
