Chapter 817
Holding this expired invitation, Yang Cheng casually drove a convertible Maserati GT out of the garage, all the way down, at the back of the Beverly Hills Hotel, surrounded by the jungle, a simple and historic manor came into view.
Parked at the gate, raised his sunglasses, looked at the wrought iron gate, found the doorbell on the stone pillar at the gate, pressed it, and then waited with his hands behind his back.
The bell rang for about half a minute, and a familiar voice came from the intercom, "Jason?"
Yang Cheng waved his hand at the camera, showing a sunny smile, "Hey, Taylor, aren't you going to invite my neighbor in?"
Taylor Swift was obviously startled by Yang Cheng's sudden visit, and only then did she react when she heard Yang Cheng speak, "Of course, please come in~"
The wrought iron gate opened in response, but it was electronically controlled. It seems that the renovation cost Taylor a lot of money.
In fact, the relationship between Yang Cheng and Taylor was not that familiar, it was slightly better than nodding acquaintances, they could barely be regarded as ordinary friends, but certainly not the kind of frequent phone calls.
Get in the car again, and walk along the private road paved with stone slabs. The scenery in the manor is laid out in front of you. There are tennis courts, outdoor swimming pools, and a small terraced field with tulip flowers planted on it. Unfortunately, the tulip season is over now. .
Bypassing a small fountain pool, Taylor Swift was already standing at the door waving to Yang Cheng.
Taylor built a sunshade with her hands, and her iconic red lips evoked a bright smile. Objectively speaking, Taylor's appearance is not good-looking, her sunken and round eyes are not beautiful, her nose is not outstanding among Europeans and Americans, and her facial features are simple It can't be called delicate when you take it out, but it's pleasing to the eye when you put it together.
In Yang Cheng's view, Taylor's beauty is unique and not aggressive, but coupled with her slender figure, slightly raised hills and those long legs that make men suffocate, it is a kind of The beauty with a dangerous atmosphere, especially the slightly curly short blonde hair style at this time, the languidness that belongs to her, is particularly charming in the sun.
Fortunately, Yang Cheng is not a young child. After holding back a little palpitation, she stepped on the brake decisively and turned off the engine. She put her hands on the door frame and jumped out.
Throwing the sunglasses into the car casually, and after hugging Taylor Swift, she promptly praised her, "Look~ I said that the sun is particularly sunny today, and it turned out to be the credit of our big star."
Mildew smiled sweetly, she didn't wear high heels at home, even so she looked as tall as Yang Cheng, and her simple home clothes couldn't hide her superstar aura.
"Jason, I've lived in New York for so many years and I haven't seen you take the initiative to find me. I didn't expect you to come to me when I moved to Beverly. Is this a surprise?"
Taylor seems to know how to please a man by nature, no, no, to be precise, how to make a man fall in love with her, the hug with Yang Cheng is not instant, but sticks to Yang Cheng's chest very naturally, the upper body slightly Leaning back on Yang Cheng's arm around her waist, she blinked and joked.
Yang Cheng didn't dare to let go, fearing that she would fall over if she didn't stop. He came here to invite her to be his girlfriend, not to play a prank.
"That was definitely my mistake. I came here to make up for it today. You know that I stepped on shit a few days ago and got into trouble. It's a pity that I didn't make it to your new home party. I didn't come here specially to talk to you." You apologize, and took a bottle of good wine as compensation." Yang Cheng successfully dispelled Taylor's concerns with this perfect reason.
She is also a wine lover. As soon as she heard that there was good wine, she immediately jumped away from Yang Cheng and ran to the side of the car. She glanced wide and saw the red wine gift bag on the co-pilot. Pulling out the wine bottle, it was an old bottle of red wine with a red seal and mottled labels. Taylor, who knew wine, recognized it at a glance, and exclaimed, "This is the dry wine of Cheval Blanc in 1947." red wine?"
Yang Cheng smiled and said affirmatively, "I have a good eye, this was taken at an auction I participated in in 2006,
My family and I drank most of it, and now there are only two bottles left, and the one in your hand is one of them. "
Château Cheval Blanc is one of the four super-A wineries in Bordeaux Saint-Emilion. Since the 20th century, Château Cheval Blanc has produced many fine wines, but only the 1947 vintage is cherished by the world. It is known as the greatest and best in Bordeaux. Cheval Blanc's red wine has rich tannins, restrained aroma, balanced and elegant taste, and its outstanding feature is that it has the most perfect expression at any time.
At that time, Yang Cheng bought a total of 10 bottles, with a unit price of more than 130,000 US dollars. It was extremely expensive, and the price was not the price, but the degree of cherishing it. It was a non-renewable resource.
Taylor Swift naturally knew how expensive the gift was, so she was a little hesitant, but she refused to let it go.
Yang Cheng laughed loudly, "Just accept it. If you're really sorry, how about being my female companion at night and accompanying me to a party?"
Meimei scolded, "I just said that you have no good intentions. If that's the case, I will accept this bottle of wine with peace of mind."
He beckoned for the servant to come over to receive the gift, and told her to put it away carefully, then he came over and took Yang Cheng's arm, "Come on, let me show you my new home."
Of course Yang Cheng had no objection. He listened to Taylor's introduction while walking, "This manor has a bit of history. It was built in 1934 and is older than your bottle of wine. It covers an area of 11,000 square feet, including four bedrooms. The original The owner is the heir to Hollywood producer Samuel Galwin and co-founder of MGM.
After I bought it, I asked the designer to keep the historical features, so what you see now is almost intact from the 1930s, although of course the tennis court and pool have been renovated.
Historically, this manor has witnessed many Hollywood stars, including Marlene Dietrich, Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable and so on. "
Yang Cheng touched the mottled stone wall and sighed, "There are really not many buildings with a historical atmosphere nowadays."
Taylor is deeply convinced, "Yeah, so I am going to apply to the local council for a 'historic landmark building' in a while, hoping that it can be recorded in history and better protected.
One day in the future, when I no longer live here, I will donate it and open it to the world. I think this is a real social wealth. "
Yang Cheng couldn't help but look at this rambunctious woman differently, he really didn't expect Taylor Swift to have such a big heart.
"If the application is successful, that would be great. Others only remember the luxury of Beverly Hills, but they forget that it is also a symbol of the times."
After a brief walk around the terraced fields, I entered the room. In a small living room with simple decoration, Yang Cheng and Taylor sat opposite each other. The servant brought coffee and desserts and left. Mei has not had time to hire a housekeeper.
"What's the party tonight? What's the theme? I'll let the stylist come over to match the clothes." Taylor asked enthusiastically after taking a sip of coffee. She still prefers to be lively, and she behaved similarly to the camera, especially with acquaintances , totally different from other entertainers who are two-faced.
"It's just a party hosted by a public fund manager from Wall Street. He's new here, so he has to get acquainted with the wealthy in Hollywood and Los Angeles." Yang Cheng said disdainfully.
Taylor Swift was surprised, "So, you don't know him?"
Yang Cheng explained helplessly, "I don't know each other, but David Ellison insisted on pulling me to participate. I guess he intends to vote, so let's just follow along~"
Taylor Swift nodded thoughtfully, "I see, the look doesn't have to be too formal, a slightly grand party outfit is more appropriate."
Yang Cheng echoed, "That's right, even if you don't dress up carefully, you will be the most dazzling one~"
Mildew licked her red lips charmingly, "The mouth is so sweet~"
Yang Cheng looked at the time, and it was not appropriate to stay longer, so they said goodbye in unison, "Then you should do your work first, I have to go home, and I will pick you up then."
"OK, thank you for the wine, I'll taste it~" Taylor Swift didn't try to keep her, what would happen if she stayed, women's intuition is always keen, especially a beauty like her who has attracted countless men, She caught the cock in Yang Cheng's eyes, of course, she didn't reject it either.
. . . . . .
As night fell, Beverly Hills luxury cars shuttled like a dragon. From Rodeo Drive to the front of various hotels on the mountainside, there were all kinds of luxury cars parked, and most of them were customized models. The neon lights are strange and fluent, and Yang Cheng's Mediterranean-colored Gust is like a drop in the ocean, not conspicuous at all, except for the security guards and parking guys who are watching the six roads. Usually at this time, the rich and stingy in the past will be rare and generous, and the income from tips is more than five times that of normal times.
Of course, Yang Cheng brought his own driver. Except for the doorman who helped open the door and got a tip of 50 dollars, the parking guy who was watching this side could only return disappointed.
Yang Cheng didn't pay attention to these sentient beings. When he showed up with Taylor in a wine-red suspenders and low dress, he attracted the attention of everyone in front of the hotel. In Hollywood, Yang Cheng's status as a rich man is far less than that of the queen of music That kind of appeal.
Taylor Swift's dress is extremely low-key today, but her iconic blond hair and red lips are not at all elegant, and her gestures show aristocratic style, which is not inferior to other ladies at all.
But in order to match her high-heeled shoes, Yang Cheng actually used the inner heightening forcefully. If so, it is not difficult to find that he is still a few centimeters shorter than Taylor Swift, and he is tall and straight. This defect It was not discovered.
The two did not hold hands, but stepped into the arena with their fingers intertwined. This also made the person who recognized Yang Cheng's identity look strange. One piece?
