Chapter 76 Chapter 76 Halloween Party

Two days before "Halloween", Jones invited He Ru to his house for a party on the festive night. Jones said: "I have mentioned you to my wife more than once, and he wants to know you very much. You know, her career is dealing in art, and she has a strong interest in Chinese culture. I think you must You can talk. Also, last time you asked me if my wife has any good friends in the art circle of City C, I have already told her about it, and she will talk to you in person when the time comes. " Because He Ru was still concerned about contacting Sun Ying for the piano concert, he asked Jones about it not long ago, but he did not expect him to be quite serious in his work.She thanked Jones. Jones joked with her: "For example, I hope that the outstanding men at our party will not dazzle you by then!"

He Ru laughed and said, "Unfortunately, Mr. Jones, I have to tell you that I already have a boyfriend, and he is very good. Please allow me to bring him to your party." Jones opened his mouth wide and said, "This is the best news I've heard, if not the most surprising!" On the night of "Halloween", He Ruo really brought Liu Dongqi to Jones' house. Jones's house is located in the middle of the mountain. The big house has a history of more than 100 years. There are more than a dozen rooms on the upper and lower floors. There is a large yard in front of it. When a party is held, it can accommodate nearly a hundred guests.Standing in the yard, you can overlook the colorful and bright LA ​​night scene in the distance.Liu Dong has been in LA for more than a year, and this is the first time he has stood at a high place to enjoy such a glorious night in LA.

The "Halloween" picture is a lively and comic atmosphere, not a very formal party.That night, He Ru went to do as the Romans did. Her complexion was already fair. After she took off her glasses and painted around her eyes and lips, she dressed up as a not-so-hateful female vampire, which was quite eye-catching. Liu Dongqi didn't put on any make-up, but deliberately slovenly, so he looked particularly reserved among a large group of ghosts.Everyone threatened him, He Ru was entertaining in the crowd, so he had to hide in a secluded place and drink alone. Seeing that Liu Dongqi was left out in the cold, Jones brought his young wife Michelle over and introduced her to Liu Dongqi and He Ru. Michelle didn't pay attention to He Ru just now because of the makeup on her face. After hearing Jones' introduction, she was very happy, so she left the other guests and chatted with them.

Michelle seems to have a special liking for mainland China, and her profound insights on Chinese culture also surprised Liu Dongqi and He Ru. Michelle seemed very happy. While she was showing them both the assortment of antiques and artworks she had collected, she chatted with them about culture and art.To Michelle's surprise, Liu Dongqi was very fond of those Chinese antiques, which made her admire them. Liu Dongqi told her that his father was a professor of history at the university before he retired. He was influenced by his father and was very interested in Chinese history and ancient art since he was a child.

Michelle took them to a dressing table from the Kangxi period collected by Jones' ancestors, saying that this dressing table was her housekeeping work.Liu Dong became interested. After looking at the wood and paint in detail, he actually told the source of the dressing table.This dressing table originally belonged to a certain Ye family in the south of the Yangtze River who was the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, because all the furniture of the Ye family was made of teak wood imported from Siam.Later, during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Ye family was destroyed by war, and all the furniture was lost.Just don't know how this dresser got here.

Michelle was very happy when Liu Dongqi introduced the origin of the dressing table.The two got more and more speculative. He Ru remembered what Sun Ying asked her to do, so he slowly brought the topic to the piano, and also introduced the origin of Liu Dongqi's piano. Michelle is also very interested in the piano, and she would like to listen to Liu Dongqi play a piece when she is free.She suddenly remembered something, and said to He Ru: "For example, Jones once told me that you are asking about my friends in the art circle of City C?" He Ru smiled and said: "That's right. We have a friend in Shanghai, China, who is a female artist who can play the piano very well. She wanted to hold a concert in C City, but she was not familiar with the people in the art circle here, so I want to ask you to see if you can help me?"

Liu Dongqi didn't expect that He Ru was still thinking about Sun Ying, he was a little surprised, and didn't know her real intention. Michelle said that after a while, the Southern California Folk Art Association will hold a global Chinese concert in Hollywood, and she can find someone to invite Sun Ying to perform in LA through the organizer.He Ru didn't expect Michelle to agree to help Sun Ying so readily, thanked her quickly, and then smiled at Liu Dongqi. When Michelle went to entertain other guests, Liu Dongqi couldn't help asking He Ru: "Are you really going to help Sun Ying? Isn't there any other meaning?"

He Ru smiled and said, "What do you think? Do you have to have a purpose to help others? I think Sun Ying really wants to engage in art, so it is very helpful for her to go out so often." Liu Dongqi said with a smile: "My ugly words must be said first, this matter is none of my business!" He Ru said with a smile: "If you want to take care of this matter, you have to pass my test!" The two of them looked at the flickering lights in the distance, and recalled the scene in Shanghai more than two months ago, feeling emotional in their hearts.Liu Dongqi couldn't help but put his arms around He Ru's waist.

At this time, Jones came over with a glass of wine, smiled and said to He Ru: "For example, now I want to tell you a surprising news. The headquarters of our group has informed me that I will go to work at the headquarters before New Year's Day next year at the latest. I have recommended you to the headquarters to replace me. If there are no accidents, your appointment will be approved soon." He Ru froze for a moment, and said, "But, Jones, I'm not prepared at all." Jones said: "Your qualifications and abilities are impeccable in the company. No one will doubt that you will do better in my position!"

Jones turned to Liu Dongqi with a smile and said, "I hope I can attend your wedding when I leave LA!" He Ru smiled and said: "Jones, the two things you are waiting for me to do are really too aggressive!" Jones winked at Liu Dongqi and said, "Young man, if I were you instead, I would never let go of any possible opportunity to face such an outstanding woman!" Liu Dongqi smiled and said, "I think so do I! For your words, we should have a toast!" D there is no winter in Los Angeles
