Chapter 1509 Unexpected Acquaintance

"My dear Leslie, aren't you going to introduce your little boyfriend to me?" Elsa crossed her arms, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, looking up and down at Jiang Chen who was sipping red wine by himself. A hint of contempt flashed through, "Long time no see, your taste still doesn't seem to have improved much."

Because Jiang Chen was wearing sunglasses and the light was dim, she didn't see who was sitting there. In fact, even without sunglasses and dim light, it might not be easy for her to recognize Jiang Chen. Not to mention the facial blindness among different races, it is impossible for a boss of this level to sit in a small corner. Drinking alone.

He really has status and status, who is not surrounded by a large circle of people?

"Miss Griffin," Leslie took a deep breath and looked at Elsa coldly, with a cold and charming curve at the corner of her mouth, "I don't have time to argue with you today."

"Don't be so cold. It's rare to meet her at a banquet." Elsa said with a smile.

Although no verbal conflict has broken out so far, there are obvious sparks in the eyes between the two women.

"This is my business card." The male companion next to Elsa smiled slightly, nodded to Jiang Chen politely, handed over the gold-plated business card in his hand, and said gently, "If we have a chance, we can Let’s have a nice chat.”

Berkeley Lewis, President of Dream Properties.

Seeing the name on the business card, a hint of surprise appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes.

He said that he seemed to have seen this person somewhere, and now he finally remembered that he had seen him there.

About three or four years ago, at a charity party in Penglai City, Jiang Chen happened to meet this person who was pestering Emma, ​​so he helped Emma and made him make a fool of himself at the banquet. In the end, He rolled back to Los Angeles in despair.

I don’t know what happened next to make this idiot, who had been emptied of his body by drinking and sex, look like this now.

Although the disdain and arrogance in his eyes could not be hidden, at least on the surface he had learned to be modest and polite, and even tied up this Miss Griffin. If he remembered correctly, the surname Lewis was at best considered a nouveau riche in California.

Glancing at the business card sandwiched between his two fingers, Jiang Chen just smiled faintly and didn't even reach out to take it.

With his outstretched hand hanging in the air, Berkeley Lewis's eyes flashed with a hint of sullenness, but he quickly converged behind the slightly contemptuous and mocking smile and put the business card in his arms.

"It seems that this is Miss Leslie's little boyfriend's first time in contact with this world, so it's understandable that he doesn't understand the etiquette of upper class society." Elsa looked at Jiang Chen with a hint of disdain in her eyes, "Let's go , Berkeley, even the air will become bad if you stand with boring people.”

"Okay, my dear Miss Elsa." After giving Jiang Chen a deep look, Berkeley Lewis followed Elsa and left the corner of the banquet.

Leslie finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her nemesis leaving.

Although at first she wanted to see Elsa suffer so much with Jiang Chen, the impatience shown on Jiang Chen's face clearly did not seem like he planned to get involved in the trouble between them. Keenly aware of this, Leslie did not respond to Elsa's provocation. The latter also left without interest after receiving no response to his provocation.

Watching Elsa's retreating back, Leslie noticed that Jiang Chen's eyes fell on the Lewis, so she whispered.

"Berkeley Lewis, a nouveau riche from California, Elsa's third boyfriend this year...maybe the fourth. Although he himself has no ability, his father ranks in the top 30 on the Forbes wealth list , Dream Real Estate is also one of the top real estate developers in California, mainly targeting overseas immigrants, especially Chinese..."

"I know, his father seems to be a shareholder of Warner Bros.," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Do you know him?" Leslie asked slightly surprised.

“After two sentences, it was obvious that he did not recognize me.

"Putting the goblet on the table, Jiang Chen stood up from the chair and looked at Miss Leslie. He had forgotten the unpleasantness just now. He paused for a moment and then said, "Let's go. Let’s check out what’s on offer at the auction. "

Miss Leslie stood up quickly.

If any of her classmates or alumni were here, they would definitely show surprised expressions. The third young lady of the Garcia family, who had always been like a flower on the high mountain, would actually show such a respectful look to a man.

…

It is difficult to be invisible in the spotlight. The established consortiums have long learned to keep a low profile after their early glory.

Not only established financial groups like Boston, but also many families with "small savings" are now choosing to put their wealth into various types of funds, offshore accounts, and shell companies. This does not affect the right to control wealth, but also successfully achieves the invisibility of wealth. In the name of "charity", one can also obtain various tax exemptions, especially the outrageous inheritance tax. The real richest people in the world are invisible. Who will take that seat? Bill Gates, Lao Ba and other middle-class rich people and newcomers to wealth shouldered this false reputation, and both real and fake rich people were happy.

For example, Leslie's father, Odo Garcia, holds assets of more than 100 billion U.S. dollars at least, but he does not appear on the Forbes wealth list. Another example is Jiang Chen himself. In addition to being at the top of Forbes list in the first few years, he bribed Forbes magazine to remove him from the list a long time ago.

After all, that string of zeros is really eye-catching.

The auction was held in the conference hall on the top floor. Guests in formal attire and formal attire entered the venue one after another and took their seats according to their seat numbers.

On Manhattan Island, the surname Garcia still has some respect, and Leslie got a relatively high seat number. Holding Jiang Chen's hand and walking into the venue, she suddenly noticed an annoying figure. I saw Elsa and his male companion, Mr. Lewis, sitting not far from them.

Sensing Leslie's gaze, Elsa turned her face sideways and responded with a provocative look.

"It's really haunting." Leslie cursed in a low voice and stopped looking over there.

"Leslie is a little weird today." Elsa looked away from her opponent. She took out the makeup pen from her bag and put on some light makeup on her delicate face. "If it's normal, she You won’t be so polite to me.”

Berkeley Lewis sat there with a somewhat absent-minded expression, and did not even hear what his female companion said.

Just now, he suddenly saw a figure that haunted him.

"Berkeley? Are you listening to me?" Elsa glanced at her boyfriend dissatisfiedly, and there was a bit of doubt in Elsa's voice.

Quickly recovering from his daze, Berkeley smiled slightly, calmly looked away from the back figure, and softly comforted his girlfriend.

"Sorry, I was just thinking about something..."

As he coaxed his girlfriend with sweet words, Berkeley's mind was no longer sure where to go.

His eyes inadvertently swept over the backless evening gown, his heart moved slightly, and he suddenly had an idea...
