Chapter 909

During the afternoon tea time, Jenny's grandfather was still resting. For an old man in his eighties, it was already rare that he could still go to the fields. No matter how noble his status was, his body and age had long refused to forgive him.

Jenny’s father was also busy with official duties in the government, so he might not have much to do, but it was not yet time for him to get off work.

Therefore, the afternoon was actually a gathering of several young people, and several young people came over from Jenny's house. Naturally, they introduced them one by one. Jenny was basically acquainted with both rain and dew, but she did not show any pretense towards Li Qianhaocheng.

Li Qianhaocheng was left out in the cold, and if he had been replaced by someone else, he would have been sitting on the sidelines depressed and no longer gathering in there.

However, Li Qianhaocheng is obviously not that kind of person. Even if no one pays attention to him, he still mixes among the crowd with great interest, and makes affectionate confessions to Jenny from time to time, which really makes everyone's chat more interesting. Not going down.

Shi Lei actually didn't have much to say. After all, they were brothers and sisters. Xiaodie was obviously very familiar with this family. They had common topics. Zhao Di also had to accompany his girlfriend, Shi Lei. Gradually, he walked aside and scrolled through his phone boredly.

Xiaodie noticed Shi Lei's embarrassment and pulled Zhao Di to Shi Lei's side.

"Master Shi, why are you sitting here alone?"

Shi Lei raised his head and smiled slightly, and said: "You guys are all talking about European customs and customs, which I don't know much about. It's good to sit alone for a while."

Over there, Jenny saw Shi Lei and the other three sitting aside. She also wanted to come over, but Li Qianhaocheng held her back.

"Jenny, why are you always so cold to me? You should know that my mother is also a devout Christian, but I didn't accompany her on days like Christmas. I flew here specially from home today. You see, yesterday I didn’t even attend the class reunion..."

Jenny looked at him helplessly, probably feeling that this was not the way to treat guests, so she had to sit down again, her eyes always looking at Shi Lei.

At this time, a man in his thirties from the Scola family said: "Qian, it's not just Jenny who is cold to you, all of us are also cold to you. If it hadn't been for too late, we would have even wanted to persuade you. It's better to go back to China and spend the holidays with Ms. Qian. It's really not good for you, as her son and only son, not to accompany her on such a grand festival..."

Li Qianhaocheng was polite to Jenny, but not so polite to others.

He glared and said: "Philip, it seems that your loss last time was not bad enough. How much are you going to lose to me today?"

Phillip's expression changed and he stopped saying anything. It seemed that he had indeed lost a lot last time.

"Are you being cold to me? Do you think I will care? All I need is Jenny's favor."

Everyone looked sideways and couldn't stand listening anymore. Even if Westerners don't mind talking about emotions, this Li Qianhaocheng is really a bit too much.

When Shi Lei saw this scene, a smile appeared on his face again.

Xiaodie noticed this and said with a smile: "His name is Li Qianhaocheng. His father's surname is Li and his mother's surname is Qian. That's why we gave him this name. His grandfather was a diplomat and was stationed in the UK before. It is said that his grandfather had a lot of help in the return of Hong Kong Island, but even so, his grandfather still maintained a very good relationship with the royal family, and he also had a good personal relationship with Jenny's grandfather. We grew up together, oh, by the way, Jenny’s mother is also a member of the royal family. When they were young, they often messed around in the palace..."

Shi Lei understood, nodded, and said with a smile: "This is the true harmony of the family. Just now he asked me to call him Mr. Qian at the door, probably because his mother's family is relatively strong, right?"

"That's not true. In fact, his mother respects his father very much. Even his mother's family thinks that it is a high achievement for his mother to marry his father. His father's family is a real intellectual and a scholarly family. . During the Qing Dynasty, the Li family had the highest level of Zhongtang..."

Shi Lei was stunned and immediately said: "Li Hongzhang?"

Xiaodie shook her head and said: "This is the rumor in the outside world, but it is not true. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, their family had few high-ranking positions. However, even Li Hongzhang wanted to show goodwill to his family and even voted for his disciple. Big difference. Not bad, after all, it is a real scholarly family. In the history of the bus school, their Li family was absolutely clean. "

Shi Lei didn't know much about these things, he just heard some things from hearsay, and to sum it up, it was basically one sentence, the Li family was an aristocratic family with a very deep foundation.

"A child from a noble family, it's no wonder that he acts in an eccentric way."

Xiaodie laughed loudly and said: "Master Shi, you are so polite. You only used the word "Sword Sect Pioneer". His grandfather's evaluation of him was "deviant".

"So, he doesn't like reading?"

"It's not just that he doesn't like reading, he simply doesn't read at all. But after all, he comes from a scholarly family. No matter how much he doesn't like reading, he is still a top student. When he graduated from junior high school, because his mother was also sent to the British Embassy, ​​he His father was a rather old-fashioned university professor, so he brought him to London. Education in the UK is different from that in China. Usually, after international students come, they have to study for one year of IGCSE and then two years of A-level. After he entered the school, he flipped through the book and went home to tell his mother that he couldn't read the book. His mother asked him why, and he said it was ridiculously simple, so his mother arranged a test for him. He got full marks for his A-level, and within two days he was tired of it. He said it was still too easy, because he just happened to catch up with the exam in October of that year, so he took the AS exam directly, and naturally passed with perfect marks. So he saved two years, and of course the Scola family also helped. It is said that he still entered the A2 school year, and then he was admitted to the same school as us. , he is not our classmate, he is in the same school and in the same grade, so he is two years younger than Jenny and I, but he graduated from college in the same year as us.”

Shi Lei smiled and shook his head. The world of Xin Dao Academic Master was really difficult to understand. Although it was not as good as Yao Er, it was not far behind.

"His father is a university professor and spends most of his time in academic research. He has very little education and care for him. He almost grew up with his mother's side since he was a child. He was too pampered, so he was raised He has become such a character. However, he is actually good, but he is exaggerated and unbearable. It’s not that Jenny and I really hate him, it’s just that we can’t communicate with him normally. He doesn’t want to inherit the Li family’s scholarly legacy, and he doesn’t want to continue pursuing diplomacy along the same path as his mother’s family. He thinks about starting a business all day long and becoming the world’s richest man…”

Shi Lei laughed and asked, "Did he do anything in the past few years since he graduated?"

"I have a foreign trade company, which is doing pretty well, and my net worth should be over 100 million. I am planning to go public this year. But this year is almost over, and his plan to go public is probably next year. He is exaggerated, and his ability It’s still quite strong. My parents’ genes are so good that it’s not easy to inherit an idiot.”
