Along with voting to construct a grocery store, neighborhood actions additionally embrace some charity fundraising actions, that are collectively organized by volunteers and neighborhood service staff. The situation is random, simply across the polling station. They do not take note of the shape, and most of them donate somewhat change of their pockets.
This neighborhood belongs to the rich space, and everybody is comparatively beneficiant, particularly when dealing with some particular volunteers, their love makes them unable to bear to refuse. No, two cute twins with blond hair and bangs in pink speckled skirts appeared holding donation packing containers, and their large eyes met them.
Xiaomengmei got here to them, and mentioned in a milky voice: “Brothers and sisters, assist the development of leisure services in neighborhood parks, enhance the extent of greening, let kids and fogeys get pleasure from extra glad instances, let small animals inhabit and enrich their lives. The non secular lifetime of our neighborhood, please give your love?”
An Feng smiled and requested, “Hey, little woman, how lengthy did it take you to memorize the strains?”
Xiao Mengmei smiled and replied: “Two nights!”
One other cute woman who seems to be the identical mentioned: “Solely.”
An Feng continued to ask: “Mother and Dad requested you to come back?”
Little cute woman Qiqi shook her head: “No, we did it voluntarily.”
“Good job.” An Feng gave them a thumbs up. They discovered to be volunteers at a younger age, and their mother and father’ academic philosophy is certainly good.
He took Joanna’s bag, counted a number of items of cash, the worth of which was not small, and eventually solemnly stuffed the cash into the donation field, and the 2 little women smiled.
“Thanks, brother and sister.” They mentioned sweetly, and one of many little cute women pulled out a signature pen, drew a smiling face on the small piece of memo, added their crooked names, and handed them: “That is My sister and I gave it to you, could God bless you!”
An Feng took the paper and waved to them with a smile. The 2 little women have been inspired and continued to point out off their cuteness in entrance of different folks to lift donations. This cute look can kill males, girls and youngsters, and nobody can bear to refuse them. Lin Xiaofei additionally took a particular photograph with two cute women who’re good at swinging scissors.
“It is actually a young baby.” An Feng mentioned.
“Hmm. So cute.” Joanna checked out them.
An Feng mentioned: “Lets increase one too?”
Joanna nodded, then shook her head: “It isn’t now, I have never completed my research but.”
An Feng nodded: “I respect your opinion. However your age is probably the most stunning youth of a lady, and it’s certainly a pity to make use of it to have kids.”
Joanna scorned: “This assertion is so unusual.”
An Feng smiled.
Voting, fundraising, studying, and a few small speeches, the cultural actions locally are certainly a lot richer than Anfeng’s earlier empty winery space. He noticed that those that have been normally busy with work additionally became informal garments, introduced their wives and youngsters to attend, and met new buddies.
Sitting on the garden, sharing a day picnic with enthusiastic neighbors locally, watching the naughty figures of the youngsters, I had a really glad day. Though the delay induced Joanna to cancel her plan to buy groceries, she nonetheless felt it was price it as a result of she loved the tranquility and heat.
…
After having a candlelight dinner within the metropolis, it was greater than 9 o’clock once I returned house. Joanna went to take a shower within the jacuzzi when she was drained. An Feng additionally needed to go, however she thought it will take twice as lengthy for 2 folks to take a shower collectively. Due to this, he was rejected. An Feng returned to the mattress injured, and leaned in opposition to the bedside to play with the pc.
Flipping by the memo, there are numerous issues to do however no clue, reminiscent of property planning. An Feng does not like hoarding actual property meaninglessly, however now his two homes are designed by others and lived in by others. Though they’re very comfy to stay in, they all the time really feel that there’s something lacking.
Constructing a luxurious home fully in response to their preferences… An Feng has all the time thought of it, however the issue is the placement. Is it inland or coastal? And discovering housing land isn’t simple. And the extra essential architectural fashion, the towering fortress? A grand property? Or a resort?
The fortress appears a bit empty, and the manor feels fallacious… After serious about it, I nonetheless cannot grasp the necessities, and Joanna should prefer it.
Once I was serious about one thing, the category group was flickering. I clicked on it and located that everybody was discussing a visit in the course of the Nationwide Day vacation. There have been numerous plans. An Feng glanced on the memo and typed a line: “Hey, hey! Please be conservative along with your plans. Do not be loopy, bear in mind to come back to my brother’s marriage ceremony banquet in China on the sixth!”
Wang Le replied the quickest: “What in regards to the overseas ones? What about our VIPs who’ve booked the very best man seats? Will we ship a particular aircraft to select them up?”
Xiang Yang booed: “It should, we’re large names, in any other case how can we be worthy of the pomp?”
Wu Chao mentioned: “At the very least the aircraft will need to have a mattress, in any other case we cannot go.”
An Feng mentioned speechlessly: “Fuck! You guys are hypocritical! Ship a Gulfstream there, carry a mattress, and a blonde stewardess, and undergo the VIP channel all the way in which. Are you happy?”
“It is okay.” Wang Le replied.
“Barely.” Xiang Yang replied.
“You two, are you positive that donating tender chrysanthemums can repay the debt for this journey?” Wu Chao poured chilly water on it.
The category group unanimously responded to varied sinister smiling faces.
An Feng sighed: “You guys are actually out of morals!”
Chatting with outdated buddies on the Web and telling them about their plans by the way in which, there will not be many individuals going to america for dinner, and the procedures for touring overseas are too difficult and dear. Solely three buddies didn’t hesitate—though they shouted enterprise jets the loudest. Loud, however after saying their goodbyes, a couple of folks despatched a message individually, saying that that they had already purchased their air tickets, in order that they did not want to organize a enterprise jet… An Feng was somewhat moved.
It is a pity that the great instances do not final lengthy, and the emotion isn’t all the time there. Everybody has no conscience, and they’re enjoying tips! Xiang Yang replied on behalf of them: “However please remember to allow us to see a extremely loopy bachelor social gathering, two situations, first, it have to be full of life sufficient; second, you need to pay the invoice!”
“A bunch of bastards!” An Feng scolded with a smile.
…
An Feng sat in his Cessna enterprise jet and flew to New York.
He was the one one on this journey, and Joanna was not even notified as a result of he needed to give her a shock.
Earlier than the journey to Europe, he had already paid off the mortgage he owed to AmEx, and the diamonds he had mortgaged to the financial institution have been free once more. Though that they had by no means been touched in Amex’s secure, he might dispose of those diamonds at will. After coming back from the journey to Europe, he specifically appointed somebody to ship it for processing.
A top-cut blue diamond is already flawless, however whether it is for use as jewellery, it can’t all the time be held within the hand, proper? So An Feng invited probably the most beautiful jewelers in New York to create probably the most wonderful diamond necklace… It took a month to extend the worth. Along with offering diamonds, An Feng paid an extra 5 million US {dollars} for diamonds Charges and processing charges, a number of masters personally labored on it, and now the work is completed completely.
As quickly as I bought off the aircraft, I used to be picked up by the particular automotive despatched by the jeweler to the headquarters. After passing by quite a few inspections and safety checkpoints, the entourage needed to scan their complete our bodies thrice earlier than they may see this destiny. Screaming excessive art work.
The supervisor in cost mentioned in a tone that treats uncommon treasures: “It makes use of three platinum chains, inlaid with 920 diamonds with a complete weight of 40.55 carats, and makes use of a 3.02-carat pink diamond offered by you to inlay a The highest blue diamond of fifty.51 carats will be known as a masterpiece!”
An Feng is holding this beautiful necklace, which has three chains linked to one another, and every chain is inlaid with white diamonds that mirror dazzling brilliance. Probably the most beautiful is the concept of pink diamonds inlaid with blue diamonds. He can not help however think about, The scene the place Joanna wears will probably be so dazzling…
The necklace can also be very worthwhile. The estimated worth of the highest blue diamond is greater than 30 million US {dollars}, plus pink diamonds and different diamonds, the whole value is greater than 40 million. Regardless of by way of exquisiteness or rarity, it may be among the many high ten Leaderboard – if An Feng is prepared to make it public.
However he clearly does not need his spouse to put on a necklace, which is able to appeal to the eye of thieves from all walks of life, so preserving a low profile and never being well-known is one of the best ways. After appreciating it, it was solemnly put into the secure, and after affirmation, the safety personnel of the jewellery firm escorted all of it the way in which to the airport, and immediately boarded the aircraft and left.
…
Again in California, October is approaching.
Issues out of the blue elevated. Fortuitously, An Feng was wealthy, and lots of issues have been executed by knowledgeable crew. I heard that the highest marriage ceremony planning crew rented a world-class resort: a lovely resort in Palm Springs. There can be a totally personal time for the ceremony to be held for them.
An Feng browsed some footage despatched by the supervisor. It’s a stunning resort with mountains and water, masking an space of greater than 100 acres. It has two golf programs, a number of synthetic lakes, and a whole lot of luxurious suites…Anyway, An Feng $5 million prematurely to the crew.
Perhaps as an alternative of worrying in regards to the course of, he ought to take into consideration which gown to put on. He had three custom-made clothes at a tailor store in Los Angeles. It took almost a month to completely mirror his determine and temperament, and the selection was additionally a cheerful bother…Two days later, his mother and father and buddies flew from China one after one other.
It’s price mentioning that my sister mentioned on the cellphone that with a purpose to hold tempo with the instances, my mother and father went to the provincial capital to take a crash course in etiquette, primarily to show folks easy methods to cope with varied events reminiscent of receptions, dinners or weddings. I’ve a robust curiosity, and I additionally studied conventional Chinese language etiquette, and even participated in an curiosity class for the aged to alternate some expertise of abroad journey or easy overseas languages…
An Feng naturally agreed, leaving a lot cash for the aged, in fact it’s for enjoyment.
An Feng initially deliberate to show his mother and father easy methods to adapt to the Western eating desk, however he did not count on to see him for a couple of months, and he seems to be good with a knife and fork, so don’t fret in any respect, however his father joked that he ought to let An Feng fear about his in-laws How you can maintain chopsticks and drink pure liquor with them.
The odor of gunpowder… An Feng secretly communicated with Frank—that is how the traitor interpreter got here out.
As for a couple of buddies who’ve additionally arrived, however they’re nonetheless enjoying, the vacations can’t be used to attend the marriage banquet, can they? However everybody later regretted not going to the resort earlier to get pleasure from high-end companies… After my sister’s household additionally got here, I took them to Los Angeles for large buying.
The garments are all full, however for marriage ceremony banquets, jewellery is indispensable. I took them to decide on some, however not all of them can be used. However purchase extra, in order that there are extra decisions for different events sooner or later. An Feng is de facto not in need of cash now, there may be greater than 100 million consumption clean, he has a headache easy methods to spend the cash.
