Gilmore had deliberately brought up the topic of the small woods just to see Arina’s blushing face.No matter how calm she usually was, the thought of their reckless youth back then, and those sweet, ambiguous memories they shared, would surely make her feel deeply embarrassed.Gilmore figured he needed to take it step by step—urging Arina to think more about the past. He was certain that recalling those thrilling old days would rekindle the passion in her heart that had been waiting for over twenty years.Arina, of course, knew what he was getting at. Overcome with shyness, she quickly changed the subject and blurted out, By the way, how’s our old homeroom teacher doing now?Gilmore replied, He’s doing alright, except his legs and feet aren’t as steady as they used to be. At our last old classmates’ gathering, we specially invited him back to our alma mater and even asked him to give us a lecture in the classroom.Really? Arina sighed, It’s such a pity I couldn’t make it to that gather

After that, he drove his BMW 5 Series and took Arina to the Fairwyn Club.The venue Paul had booked for Arina was on the 14th floor of the Fairwyn Club—which was already the highest floor accessible to regular members of the club.Gilmore couldn’t help but feel surprised!Last time, he had only managed to visit the 10th floor by relying on his son-in-law Alan’s connection with Mogos.But he never expected that Paul could directly book the 14th floor this time!It was said that the 15th floor was for the Green family’s private use and not open to the public. That meant Paul must be a top-tier member here.Moreover, the 10th floor of the Fairwyn Club was already extremely luxurious—so how unimaginably luxurious must the 14th floor be?As the elevator went up, Gilmore couldn’t help but ask Arina beside him: Arina, is Paul on good terms with the Green family?Arina nodded and said: After all, we’ve had a cooperative relationship for so many years, and we’ve helped them solve quite a few lega

Rodney nodded and smiled, saying, When the time comes, you can contact me directly, and I’ll help you arrange a time with the elder.With that, Rodney added, All right, I won’t stay here to disturb you any longer. Since we can start serving the dishes, I’ll tell the kitchen to bring them out right away.Paul said, Coincidentally, I’m leaving too, Mr. Rodney. Let’s head out together.Good, Rodney nodded.Just as Rodney was about to leave, Pierce quickly stood up and said respectfully, Hello, Mr. Rodney. I’m Pierce from Hong Kong Huisi Te Trading Company. It’s a pleasure to meet you!Rodney looked at him with a hint of surprise and asked curiously, Excuse me, I don’t seem to remember this company. Does your company have a cooperation with the Green family?Pierce hastened to reply respectfully, To be honest, Mr. Rodney, I have long hoped to cooperate with the Green family, but I’ve never had a good opportunity. If possible, I hope you can help introduce me (to the family).Rodney smiled

Allen said calmly, First of all, all the glass must be tinted. As I just said, transparent glass is equivalent to nothing at all. But once it has color—even just a light brown tint—it’s as if this glass has been turned into a solid wall.Paul nodded excitedly and blurted out, Thank you so much, Mr. Allen! I’ll arrange for someone to take care of this right away.Allen smiled slightly and added, Don’t rush—I haven’t finished yet.Paul quickly responded respectfully, Please go on, Mr. Allen.Allen explained, While you’re having the glass tinted, you also need to place a golden pixiu on each side of the entrance. They must be made of pure gold to best enhance the fortune energy. Moreover, the pixiu is famously known for ‘only taking in, never letting out’—it’s the best artifact for preserving wealth. This way, you’ll essentially create a wealth-retention feng shui formation. Once money flows in, it will stay, and your business will naturally thrive more and more.Paul clasped his hands i

Lucia left her bodyguards to help Paul move the flower baskets. She herself pressed the elevator button, held the elevator door open with her hand, and said to Allen, Master Allen, please!Allen nodded slightly as a gesture of thanks, stepped into the elevator first, and only then did Lucia follow him in.When the elevator door closed, the faint yet elegant fragrance of Lucia’s perfume slowly wafted into Allen’s nose.It had to be said that Lucia had excellent taste— the scent of her perfume was light and long-lasting. Not only did it make people feel extremely comfortable and refreshed, but it also didn’t smell vulgar at all; in fact, it was somewhat addictive.Standing beside her, Allen couldn’t help but feel a little distracted.There was no denying that Lucia was truly beautiful, with an extremely noble temperament. More importantly, when this woman was in front of him, she acted so gently that there was no trace of the arrogance or aura one would expect from a wealthy young lady.
