Chapter 1293 Banquet Guests Meet Parents
There is no harm without comparison. When Harry explained to Skye in detail the unknown and easily overlooked details of the feast hosted by their family. Skye suddenly discovered that the world of these rich people is really two completely different worlds from his own.
Whether it is food or wine, whether it is the tableware and wine glasses in hand or the beautiful music lingering in your ears. These truly rich people have achieved a level that many ordinary people can't even imagine. It is no longer the kind of superficial showing off, but the kind of low-key that has deeply engraved luxury into the bone and imprinted into life. In comparison, this low-key, inadvertently exposed way is the most shocking. And this made Skye gritted his teeth and said to him immediately after listening to Harry's narration.
"You bloody rich people!"
"Huh? Dear Daisy, how did we rich people offend you? It's just that we used the money we earned for what we need. Isn't that okay? Or do you have any hatred for the rich? "
Raising an eyebrow, Harry smiled playfully at Skye. Seeing his smile, Skye immediately rolled his eyes.
"That's right, I hate the rich! Why do you guys grow up in rich clothes and good food, but I can only eat bread. This is the biggest unfairness in the world!"
"Sorry, dear. I think I may have reminded you of something from the past and hurt your fragile heart. But maybe you should think about it. After all, it's all in the past, isn't it?"
With a hint of joking, Harry patted the back of Skye's arm that was holding his. This is to appease her emotions, but also to deliberately narrow the relationship between them. And to be honest, Skye is not against this way of getting closer.
Harry is a good person, and she, who has been with him for a while, made such an evaluation of Harry. And if the relationship between them could be simpler, she might not accept Harry's overtures. After all, she is also a woman. And as long as she is a woman, she has fantasized about such romantic things more or less. And from this perspective, the current Harry is undoubtedly an object worth looking forward to.
It's just a pity that the relationship between them is not pure. Perhaps in Harry's eyes, he was just an ordinary girl named Daisy Johnson. But only she knows that she is an agent of the Skyhammer Bureau named Skye. She came to contact Harry with a mission, so it was impossible for their relationship to be pure.
This is something that makes it difficult to make people happy just thinking about it, so naturally, Skye's complexion also became ugly. Since it was impossible to tell Harry the truth of the matter, she could only smile at Harry reluctantly. But looking at such a forced smile, Harry had a wrong idea.
He thought he had made the joke just now, so he immediately started talking to Skye as if to save him.
"Well, I'm really sorry this time. I'm afraid I'm kidding too much. Let's put the nasty stuff out of the way and talk about something interesting. For example, do you have any favorite movie stars? ?”
"Movie star? Don't tell me what other movie star you have invited over?"
Hearing such words, Skye was indeed distracted. Facing her question, Harry just shrugged his shoulders, and then said helplessly.
"You have to know, this is Beverly Hills. Apart from the rich, the most residents here are Hollywood stars. From the 1980s to the present, almost most of the actors and actresses will Buy your own estate in Beverly Hills.
From a certain point of view, we are also neighbors, and it shouldn't be a strange thing to invite one's neighbors to one's own banquet. "
When Harry explained this, a pair of beautiful men and women had already walked past him. That woman, Skye, only remembers being a model of Victoria's Secret, and that man is probably a little too familiar to her.
Leonardo DiCaprio. As a handsome man who gradually became a movie legend, he has countless fans all over the world. Even Skye was fascinated by him for a while back then. Although she is no longer as crazy as she used to be because of Leonardo's changes, she was still a little excited when she suddenly saw the appearance of this idol.
Although Skye didn't express this on the surface, the movement of his hand that started to exert force was already very clear. As an ordinary person, Harry naturally couldn't bear her actions, so immediately, he grabbed Skye's palm that was grabbing his arm, and smiled at her with difficulty.
"Dear Daisy, please let me go. If you really want to see Leon, I can introduce you. You really don't need to use me as a punching bag!"
This sentence made Skye feel a little moved, but after hesitating for a while, she still shook her head.
"Forget it. The current Leonardo is not the original Leonardo. Compared with the fat uncle he is now, I prefer his original handsome appearance. Oh, God. He was really handsome at that time Charming!"
"Actually, I think I'm also very handsome, and I'm also very charming!"
Although he knew that Skye probably wouldn't have any extra thoughts on Leonardo at this time, but Harry still couldn't help saying sourly when he heard her somewhat nympho words.
But looking at him so sour, Skye raised his eyebrows, and then showed a look of disdain.
"Only you, still want to compare with Leon at that time? I advise you to save yourself. According to the words of the Orientals, this is called self-inflicted humiliation!"
"I..." Facing this kind of personal attack, Harry obviously wanted to argue something. But when he thought of Jack who was popular with thousands of girls in the world, he still kept his mouth shut. You know, at that time, Leonardo was invincible in the world with just one face. Not to mention women, but many men fell under his jeans. Competing with such a guy, as long as Harry's IQ has not dropped, he will not do such a stupid thing.
Of course, such a thing also told Harry a truth, that is, before confirming the relationship, it's better not to bring Skye around in front of those stars. After all, those stars have been packaged in various ways. Before they have a deeper understanding of them, many people will be confused by their superficial things. He didn't want to be cut off by some star when he was halfway through the attack on Skye.
Although, I am afraid that there is no Hollywood star in this world who dares to be so stunned that even the prince of the Osborne Group would not give face. But it is not guaranteed that there will be any special cases. Harry didn't dare to make fun of his lifelong happiness, so he took Skye directly into another circle.
Most of the people in this circle are young people who are similar to him, of course, they are young people with extraordinary identities. Although as friends, Harry didn't think much of these guys. But as the future head of the Osborne Group, he must learn to deal with these guys. So no matter how reluctant he was, he could only hold his wine glass high and exchange greetings with these people.
At this time, what he was most worried about was that Skye would get tired of this kind of occasion. After all, she is so maverick and unique in character. It's not surprising what will happen. But to his surprise, Skye didn't do that. She just smiled and listened to the meaningless conversation between them, perfectly maintaining the posture that a qualified female companion should have.
This kind of performance really moved him, after all, Skye was suppressing his own nature and doing such things. And the reason why she did this, she knew it was for herself without even thinking about it. Just imagine, a woman you like can do this for you, isn't it worth touching?
Because he took Skye's feelings into consideration, Harry didn't waste too much time in this circle. He took a chance and took her to a secluded corner of the garden. And in such a place, Skye finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Damn it! Can't you guys have some nutrition in your conversations? Can't you guys think of something other than play and women?"
She was obviously complaining, and for her complaints, Harry could only spread his hands and explain to her innocently.
"There is no way around this. You know, most of them want to inherit their own family business. The problem now is that their parents can stay in their current positions for at least ten years. Anyway It cannot be said that because of their careerism, they forced their parents to abdicate. So taking advantage of this time to find a way to have fun has become the only thing they can do."
"That's a good reason. Should I sympathize with you rich kids who are just waiting to die?"
Rolling his eyes again, Skye was about to sarcastic. But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from their side.
"Harry? Why are you here? And, who is this?"
The figure of Norman Osborn came out from a corner, and seeing his son and a girl here, the expression on his face suddenly became surprised.
And when he met his father in this place, the surprise in Harry's heart was no less than that of old Osborne. He subconsciously wanted to ask something, but saw Skye who looked a little shy. However, his heart became hot, so he stood in front of her, and then said to his father.
"Dad, let me introduce you. This is Daisy, Daisy Johnson. A female friend of mine!"
