Chapter 1357: Escape

Delicious... delicious, really delicious!

Aiden, who tasted the charcoal-grilled black golden abalone with garlic, has forgotten everything he saw before.

What father and aunt's, isn't his garlic abalone delicious?

Otherwise, young people nowadays are still too naive, they don't think about that at all, simple...simple! Aiden couldn't stop talking during this meal. As for the other two, it's not clear whether they had something to eat or not. Anyway, they kept babbling...

"How's your career going?" Li Zitao felt that the air on the table was about to freeze, so Li Zitao had to find a topic to defuse the atmosphere.

"It's okay." Aiden obviously didn't want to waste time talking. "How many houses belong to you?" Li Zitao was really curious, how many houses he had invested in with the transferred money.

"There are more than 20 buildings, most of which are in the east and west districts." Aiden said.

"More than 20 buildings?" Li Zitao wondered if he had misremembered.

According to the profit of those apartments, he should have at least 30~50 buildings now, unless he spends all his money elsewhere.

"It's better to let Tina talk about it." Aiden freed his hand and shouted helplessly to the door: "Tina." "Boss." Christina trotted in, with a little grease stain on the corner of her mouth.

"Tell me about real estate investment." Seeing her come in, Aiden smiled with satisfaction, and continued to eat with his head down.

"Okay." Christina wiped off the oil stains at the corners of her mouth with her fingers, and introduced the information she had in an orderly manner.

Under Christina's introduction, Li Zitao also clearly understood why he only invested in 26 new properties.

Based on the principle of excellence, Aiden selected all the properties that are the hottest, most popular, and best-rated in recent years.

The smallest of these new properties is also 4 suites, including 8 sets of six-suite three-story high-end apartments.

"Restrictions on the source of tenants and rents may cause vacancy for a certain period of time, but in terms of long-term house price appreciation, it is more cost-effective."

After Christina finished her report, she still didn't know the so-called sudden bow, and she didn't know where she learned the rules.

You must know that in the United States, etiquette such as bowing is not popular, 'Isn't she watching too many TV dramas? '

Li Zitao suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a TV series about the 'Golden Age' on TV recently, 'Could it be that he was obsessed after watching that? '

"Thank you." Seeing that his father didn't respond, Aiden raised his head to signal that she could leave, and then looked at his father strangely, "He seems to be distracted all the time today. '

"By the way...remember to arrange your time, Christmas...New Year...Fia's wedding...then go to London, and hurry back as soon as possible..."

"It's so troublesome." Hearing his father talking about so many things, Aiden rubbed his head in distress.

Why does he need to be upset about these things? Thinking about it now, if he didn't skip a grade at that time, he should still be living a childish and fulfilling life of being carefree, jealous, and trying his best to win girls' attention with his friends!

"The last one shouldn't be a problem for me." It's not that Aiden is narcissistic. From childhood to adulthood, he was the focus of attention wherever he went.

Whether he recognizes him or not, his handsome face and sharp and deep blue pupils give him a deep understanding of "face value is justice".

If he could, he should be able to complete what Uncle Jonathan said by now, "Slaying a Hundred People." If he worked harder, "Slaying a Thousand People" would not be a problem.

only……

"Ahem..." Aiden didn't know what to think, suddenly choked on the noodles, covered his mouth with an embarrassing dining cloth, and coughed vigorously.

"Are you okay?" Little Mary asked with concern.

"No, cough cough...it's all right." Aiden coughed louder as his eyes swept forward unintentionally parallel to the dining table.

Although he is very clear about the steps of love, kissing, second base, and third base, but if he thinks about it carefully, he has only reached first base so far, and he has not even reached the standard for second base.

'I don't even know what I'm hesitating about.

’ Aiden was sure his body was ready.

When she was in love with Riley, she also hinted at it, and even revealed it on her own initiative.

But even he himself didn't know why he avoided every critical moment, 'Is it because something is missing? '

Aiden really wanted to talk to someone about this topic. It would be great if Mason was here, but he was a bit embarrassed to talk about it in front of others.

'And the damn beard. ’ Aiden just started growing a beard this year.

He wanted to just shave it off, but his father insisted he keep it, saying it was just 'children's fluff, not a beard at all. '

Little distractions, which have become the norm lately, have left him with a lack of focus and energy.

Li Zitao was also absent-minded, he simply took two bites and went out, saying he was going for a walk outside.

This break lasted three days, during which he stayed at the Tawerman Family Theme Hotel in Rockefeller Plaza, staying with Lily.

The apartment where little Mary lives is a bit scary, and he needs some time to figure out how to deal with the life of big and small Mary sharing the same room.

During these three days, he was not idle, flying more than 40 hours, participated in six conferences, a charity dinner, and two small-scale speeches and ribbon cutting.

Today's Li Zitao's image in the outside world is gradually blurred, and his impression is gradually disappearing.

But in the small circle he needed, his influence, profile and stature were growing and impressive.

"This time I went to Washington, and I received a warm welcome like never before. They all want to know your next plan from me..."

As soon as Mary got off the plane, she held his face and kissed him deeply when she got in the car. The excitement between her brows was rarely seen.

She is more proud and happy to be happy with her husband's achievements than she is with her own achievements.

"It's also due to you. Without you, I couldn't do it. We all know this." Li Zitao is happy to share the joy and glory with his wife.

"In more than ten years, no one will remember the prejudices of skin color and race. They will only be jealous and worship like crazy...these will all belong to you."

She is very clear about her husband's plan. If everything goes smoothly as he thinks, then the future Li family will become a powerful family that can influence the trend of the world.

In this era when people are gradually realizing the facts and economy is as important as force, Mrs. Li, who holds a gun in one hand and money in the other, is unstoppable. However, no one knows when this kind of glory will come and how long it will last.

Throughout history, greatness often begins to be destroyed from within. People are selfish after all, and no one is an exception.
