Chapter 268 (1/2)

In the crackling flash, Zheng Jianguo watched the porter and taxi driver put two suitcases into the trunk. He got into the back seat of the car and reported an address: ”No. 18, 72nd Street, upper east side of Manhattan --”

”OK, which star are you? I don't even know you? ”

The driver is a white toothed brother in a sweater. His eyes with large white iris and small eyes swept through the rearview mirror. He drove out without stopping.

Looking straight at the group of reporters in the rearview mirror returning to the airport exit, brother Bai Fang then said, ”I think you are familiar, but I think you all look the same -”

”Well --”

Silently glanced at the driver in front, Zheng Jianguo pulled the corners of his mouth and made a dull hum, which was a response.

Then he put on a dignified look on his face and looked out of the window. Unexpectedly, the white tooth in front seemed to open the chatterbox: ”are you going home? The house you bought on the upper east side? House prices there are the highest, of course, considering Fifth Avenue, Central Park and private schools.

If I were as rich as you, I would choose there too! But no one came to pick you up? Don't all the people who live there have their own luxury cars? ”

”Bruce should send someone to pick me up?”

As if reminded by brother Bai Ya's nagging voice, Zheng Jianguo suddenly had an idea in his mind that his first-class tickets were booked by others, so he must know when to get off the plane.

If you consider it as human nature, you will definitely drive in person or have someone pick you up after you book the first class of the plane.

With the relationship between the two, this situation will be inevitable. Of course, if you are really busy, you will also tell the visitor how to travel or how long it takes to take a taxi.

”How long does it take from here to 72nd Street in the upper east?”

Many thoughts flashed through his mind. Zheng Jianguo asked. Brother Bai Ya showed a brilliant smile and said, ”the normal time is about half an hour, but where are we? This is New York, and the place you go is the upper east of Manhattan.

Even if I, an old and native driver, went to the sports car, I never arrived within an hour. Look at the traffic jam ahead -- ”

”Doodle doodle -”

The chattering brother Bai Ya said and pressed the horn in front of him. Zheng Jianguo couldn't help feeling some toothache. He looked out of the window and saw another taxi parked next to him. Then he pressed the horn: ”Dudu, Dudu --”

Then he took back his eyes and looked at the watch on his wrist. Zheng Jianguo got on the plane at more than 3 p.m. and then flew for more than half an hour and delayed at the exit for a few minutes. It was almost 4:30 now.

If you can't arrive for an hour, you'll get off at least at 6 o'clock. According to Zheng Jianguo's understanding of time life this year, you know that the start time of this kind of dinner starts at 5:30 p.m.

”When we first met, we stepped on the rice order?”

Feeling the powerlessness of the traffic jam again, Zheng Jianguo glanced at brother Bai Ya, who was still honking the horn like the driver next to him. He saw that he suddenly released the horn and leaned forward. It was obvious that he was looking at something through the windshield. He soon heard him say, ”it's really good for rich people to get off the plane and go straight by helicopter, Then you don't have to block the ground like us -- ”

”Buy another helicopter? Then you can consider opening an airline -- ”

He looked at the helicopter that was about to disappear in the sky. Before the idea in Zheng Jianguo's mind disappeared, he felt that the car suddenly started and ran out. When he almost hit the back of the front chair, brother Bai Ya's voice came: ”sorry, the traffic lights will change again. We have to hurry!”

“——”

When the car quickly passed the intersection of the green light, Zheng Jianguo saw two policemen at the roadside station flash past. Then the speed began to drive fast and slow. At this time, he began to rejoice that he would not get carsick. Otherwise, according to this tossing method, he would spit out if he didn't reach his destination.

But even if he didn't get carsick, when Zheng Jianguo arrived at his destination an hour and a half later, he got off the car with a big white face. Just as he stepped on the solid and flat ground and breathed fresh air, there was a familiar voice: ”Zheng, how did you come by taxi? Didn't Cagney receive you?”

”Hi, Bruce -”

Seeing the radiant Bruce's face slightly changed, he had brought a uniformed waiter to him.

Zheng Jianguo shrugged and watched the driver hand over his luggage to the waiter. He took his wallet out of his pocket and said, ”I was surrounded by reporters at the exit. Maybe the people you sent didn't see me. Please give me change.”

”Oh, good --”

After receiving the money, brother Bai Ya thought whether there was a tip to take. When he heard Zheng Jianguo say the change request, he found 4 dollars and 20 cents with the idea that these people were so stingy. Zheng Jianguo directly handed the money to the waiter next to him: ”please help me carry it up.”

”Hi, Zheng -”

Bruce's face changed again before he wanted to say that when I gave the money, he saw that the waiter had taken the money with a bright face. He had to turn around and look at his wife in the lobby and say, ”this is my wife, Catlin Bruce --”

”Hi, Zheng, it's a pleasure to come to you. Welcome to Manhattan. You can take this as your second home -”

Katerin Bruce, who was walking on a pair of high heels, was 1.8 meters tall. Zheng Jianguo couldn't help looking at Bruce, who was a little shorter than her. He felt that this man's taste was also one of the few Americans. He immediately touched his hand, gently shook his hand with the other party, and said, ”thank you, Mrs. burrows. I'm also honored that you can invite me to the housewarming banquet -”

”Zheng is not an outsider either. Let's go up. There are still some guests at home -”

Bruce patted Catlin on the shoulder and said that Zheng Jianguo followed the two apparently well cleaned couples into the hall of No. 18.

The brightly lit hall is exquisitely decorated. Both men and women are wearing suits, dresses and long skirts, even if they have children. I can't help feeling that the residents in this property are really high-end and high-grade——

”Ding -”

As the elevator door opened with a sound, Zheng Jianguo saw three pairs of men and women in the same suits, long skirts and gowns, so he put down his steps and waited for the other party to leave.
