Chapter 408 Christina
"Miss Christina, has anyone ever said that you look very much like a star?" Xu Liang said.
"Is Mr. Xu talking about the French actress 'Christiane Yerrie'?"
"That's right."
"She is my aunt."
Xu Liang was a little surprised, "I didn't expect Miss Christina to have such a connection. No wonder you look alike." After a pause, "So Miss Christina is French?"
Christina nodded, "I studied journalism and communication at the University of Paris I for two years. After I earned enough credits, I transferred to New York University's Stern School of Business to study for an MBA. In my first year, I got an internship qualification as an economic and business reporter for Time magazine. After graduating in the second year, I became a formal reporter. This is my third year.”
“Miss Christina is even better than I thought.”
Whether it is Paris I University or New York University. They are all world-class schools.
Even in the West, it is not easy to enter these two universities.
Christina has a smile on her face. Her excellent academic qualifications and rich knowledge have always been her proudest place.
“Thank you for your compliment.”
“Miss Christina, with your aunt’s connections in the entertainment industry and your beauty, it may be easier to succeed in the entertainment industry. Why? Didn't you take this path?"
"Our family was originally opposed to my aunt's entry into the entertainment industry, but she prefers it, so we can only respect her choice. But I don't like the superficial appearance. , the entertainment industry is secretly dirty.”
“That’s it.”
"I heard that Mr. Xu is a painter?"
"I can't talk about being a painter. I'm just an art student still studying in school."
"Mr. Xu is too modest." Christina spoke up. Transfer, "I also know a lot about art, especially oil painting. I hope to have the opportunity to communicate with Mr. Xu."
"I didn't expect Miss Christina to be so versatile?"
"My grandmother My mother and I are both professors at the Ecole Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Although I did not follow their path, I have received a relatively complete art education since I was a child.”
"It turns out it's a family background. I will definitely have a good exchange with Miss Christina if I have the opportunity."
The two chatted while eating, and the conversation was very interesting.
After finishing the meal, I came out of the restaurant. The originally bustling street became crowded with people, and policemen with guns to maintain order could even be seen on both sides.
"Are there any activities in New York Square today?" Xu Liang asked curiously.
“Mr. Xu doesn’t know?”
Xu Liang shook his head.
“Today is the last day of 2002, and there will be a New Year’s Eve party at New York Plaza in the evening.”
Xu Liang suddenly understood.
On the Internet in the last life, New York Plaza New Year’s Eve was as well known to Chinese netizens as the Super Bowl.
But now, except for people who have been to the United States, few Chinese people know about it.
"Mr. Xu, are you interested?"
"If Miss Christina is willing to accompany me, I think I would be very interested."
Christina smiled, put her left hand behind her, and bowed slightly, A knight's salute was performed.
“I am willing to serve you.”
“I didn’t expect that Miss Christina also has a humorous side.”
"Of course, after all, I am only 24 years old, and I am still a young woman pursuing novelty and romantic feelings." As he said that, he held Xu Liang's left arm with his right arm and blinked slightly, "Mr. Xu won't mind, right?" ?”
“Of course.”
The two walked toward New York Square.
Only when I got here did I realize that the front was blocked and it was impossible to get in.
"Maybe we can find a place to watch the TV broadcast." Xu Liang said.
"No. I know there is a place where you can watch it up close, but the price is a bit more expensive."
"I think I can still afford it."
Xu Liang said with a smile.
"Of course, you are a world-class super rich man."
After Christina led him forward for a while, she pushed open the ground bomb door next to her.
The first thing that caught his eye were two muscular white men wearing body armor and holding guns in their arms.
The face is full of vigilance, and he is ready to shoot if he disagrees.
Seeing Xu Liang and Christina, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, both had extraordinary temperaments, so they sat down.
Such a character is obviously not comparable to those niggas who only know how to buy for zero dollars.
There are two elevators at the end of the not-so-large hall.
Christina walked to the elevator door on the left, took out a black card from her handbag, and swiped it on the detector next to it.
Accompanied by a soft cry.
The elevator door opens.
After the two of them entered, the elevator automatically closed and went up to the second floor.
Wait until the elevator door opens again.
A magnificent hall appeared in front of him.
Gorgeous crystal lamps emit bright and soft light, exquisite oil paintings hang on the walls on both sides, and gorgeous carpets cover the entire hall.
Neatly dressed waiters shuttle around carrying exquisite dishes or drinks.
Well-dressed men and women sat among them, talking loudly.
A nice-looking waitress came up to us.
"Sir, Madam, good evening. Have you made a reservation?"
"Booked table 19. This is my membership card."
Christina held the black card in her hand Passed it over.
"Wait a moment."
The waitress walked towards the counter with the card.
After the inspection was correct, he took the two of them to the northeast corner by the window. "What do you two want to eat?"
"Twice the cappuccino." Christina said.
“I’d like a glass of lemon.”
“Okay, wait a moment, you two.”
After she left, Xu Liang said: "Are you a member here?"
Christina nodded, "My classmate brought me here once last year, so I became a member."
Xu Liang understood and didn't ask any more questions.
Through the window, you can see the stage below, and the view is very good.
“I booked this location three days in advance, isn’t it good?”
"It's great."
As the two chatted, the sky outside became darker and darker, and New York's New Year's Eve had officially begun.
Many top American stars also took turns to perform on stage.
The lively scene also attracted the attention of everyone in the restaurant on the second floor.
"Christina?"
The sound full of surprise made the two of them turn their heads subconsciously.
A handsome young man with brown hair wearing a long black trench coat came into view, followed by a fashionably dressed young woman beside him.
Seeing each other, Christina smiled.
"Paul, I didn't expect you to be here. Hi, Lilith."
Christina said hello to the blond woman wearing a red coat next to her.
Lilith nodded and glanced at Xu Liang next to her.
"Christina, no wonder you rejected our proposal to watch the New Year's Eve party together. It turns out that you have made an appointment with a handsome oriental guy a long time ago. ... Won't you introduce us?"
Christine Na nodded, "This is Mr. Xu from China."
Without Xu Liang's permission, she wisely did not introduce the other person's career or other information.
"Mr. Xu, these two are my college classmates. Lilith Harris, and Paul Harding."
"Hello."
Xu Liang smiled.
He felt a hostility in Paul Harding's eyes.
This look is all too familiar to him.
“I’m jealous.”
But this is not surprising.
Beauty is like a delicate flower, and there is never a shortage of bees and butterflies around her.
Not to mention a top beauty like Christina.
"Hello."
Paul Harding was quite well-mannered. Although there was hostility in his eyes, he never showed it in his words.
However, Xu Liang keenly sensed a sense of pride emanating from the two of them, intentionally or unintentionally.
He has felt this kind of breath in many people.
This is especially evident in those who claim to have extraordinary family backgrounds.
"Christina, we have reserved a private room on the third floor. Uriel, Catherine and Betty are all here. You can come too." Paul Harding took advantage of the opportunity and invited.
"Next time, I invited Mr. Xu to have dinner with me tonight." Christina refused.
No matter how good your classmates and best friends are, they are not more important to you than the man in front of you.
A hint of gloom flashed in Paul Harding's eyes. He had never regarded this Chinese as his competitor, but looking at Christina's expression, this man's identity seemed to be quite extraordinary.
"Mr. Xu, our 2000 Stern School of Business classmates are having a gathering in the box on the second floor. If you don't mind, you can come up and sit together. And it's more convenient to watch the New Year's Eve performance in New York Plaza."
Xu Liang thought for a moment and nodded.
Anyway, he is idle when he is idle.
"It just so happens that I also want to get to know more young talents."
"Then please."
A cold look flashed in Paul Harding's eyes.
When he reaches his own territory, he must be embarrassed.
The two walked in front, Lilith, who had been silent, hugged Christina's left arm.
"Christina, who is this Mr. Xu? I have known you for almost three years, and I have never seen you respect a man so much."
Although Xu Liang has a certain reputation in Europe and the United States, Europeans and Americans are so face-blind to Chinese people that unless he reveals his identity, few people will be able to recognize him.
Christina glanced at Bichi beside her.
This is the diamond king that I have been looking for for a long time. How could I give her an advantage?
"Mr. Xu has helped me a lot in my work. I invited him to dinner to express my gratitude."
She gave an ambiguous answer.
"Really? But I think he is quite handsome and has a great figure. Since he is not your boyfriend, how about introducing him to me?"
"You?"
Looking at Lilith's majestic figure against the background of the pink sweater, as well as her pretty face that was not too beautiful, but exuding a childishness, she suddenly felt the danger in her heart.
But the surface remains calm.
"Don't you already have a boyfriend?"
"You're talking about Howard, that guy was flirting with a black girl without telling me, and I kicked him long ago. Sister, I've been vacant for almost half a year, and I need it urgently. A good boyfriend relieves loneliness, and you are a great friend." Lilith smiled.
Cristina's tone became colder, "You'd better give up, he already has a girlfriend."
