Chapter 157 The left hand hugs the beauty and the right hand hugs the golden brick (1)

On August 8, 1896, Pitt officially negotiated with Carnegie on the issue of stock transfer.

Although Pitt received financial support from the First Banner Consortium, Cleveland Consortium, and Wang Chenhao's American Consortium, the four companies each took out 1 USD to raise only $G

$100 million. There is still a funding gap of $200 million, which requires Pitt and Carnegie to keep grinding their teeth and bargaining.

On Wall Street, in the luxurious presidential suite on the top floor of Bank of America Building, Wang Chenhao was having a meal with Lohill.

After the engagement banquet, Luo Shier became a regular here and even lived directly. He also consciously played the role of his fiancée, directing Shishu and Siqi every day to busy themselves, but he was very responsible. So, under the guidance of the chefs in the kitchen, she personally cooked to prepare meals for Wang Chenhao.

“How is it?”

Luo Xier looked at Wang Chenhao nervously. It was the first time he cooked himself. I wonder if the meal she made was in line with his appetite.

, "It tastes pretty good. Thank you for your hard work. Just leave these things to the servants in the future."

Wang Chenhao has learned from Shishu that this is Luo Shiel's first time cooking, so he will accommodate her regardless of whether the meal is delicious or not. Fortunately, Luo Shiel will not make the low-level mistake on TV, and put salt as sugar. Although the taste is not as delicious as the chef, it is fine to eat it.

Luo Xier smiled sweetly, poured Wang Chenhao another glass of milk, then held his chin with both hands, and his fingers were freely hitting his white face, and he looked at Wang Chenhao happily eating the meal.

"Why don't you eat?"

Wang Chenhao suddenly found that he was eating the meal for a long time, but he didn't see Luo Xier having something to eat.

, "I've eaten it!" Luo Hil immediately smiled and said, "The first meal actually didn't taste very good, but I've eaten it all by myself! Yours is the second one I made, and the taste is much better than the first one!"

Wang Chenhao joked and said, "Why don't you eat together? I really want to see how you frown and eat it?"

Losheil replied, "Can you eat with you? I heard that the custom of your country is that men do not allow women to eat on the table, and their wives and daughters can only wait for their husbands and sons to eat their leftovers!"

"You know all this?"

Wang Chenhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is indeed our custom, but if I don't like that, you don't have to abide by it. We are equal!"

Luo Hil was immediately overjoyed and applauded.

, "That's great! I knew you were special! As a reward for your respect for women, I will be a competent and good wife and make delicious food for you every day!"

Wang Chenhao smiled bitterly, and secretly asked Luo Xier that he was very adaptable. He learned to be a Chinese wife so quickly. However, Wang Chenhao was a little puzzled.

, "Miss Losier, I have a question that I have always wanted to ask you, but I don't know how to drive it."

, "I am your fiancée, just call me Losier. If you have any questions, please ask, and I will tell you what I know!"

Wang Chenhao nodded and smiled slightly, saying, "I just want to ask you, we are a political marriage." Both parties are linked together for money and interests, and there is no happy love, let alone I already have a wife. "Do you have no idea?"

Wang Chenhao's words surprised Luo Xier.

, "I don't understand what you mean! I know that we are a political marriage and a combination of interests. I also know that you already have a wife from Li Liang, but that is not your fault. Your country allows polygamy. If you have to say something, then I will tell you that as a woman, I will try my best to be your favorite wife, and try my best to stop you from marrying another woman!"

Listening to Luo Xier bluntly expressing what she thought, Wang Chenhao couldn't smile bitterly. He knew that Luo Xier was talking about his heart, but she didn't seem to understand what Wang Chenhao really meant.

, "I mean, you see, I have both rights and financial resources now." I want any Li Liang woman to surrender to me without any effort.

But I won’t do that. My women must have a emotional foundation. I don’t want to have different dreams. In other words, if you already have the prince charming in your heart outside, then I will take the initiative to terminate the engagement and fulfill your wishes. If you saved my life, we are still good friends!"

Luo Hil suddenly became nervous and asked, "You~

Are you going to terminate our engagement? Are you not planning to cooperate with our family?"

Wang Chenhao may think that his English failed to express his meaning, so he quickly explained: "You misunderstood! I didn't say that I wanted to terminate the engagement with you. Regardless of whether we have an engagement or not, I will cooperate with your family. Don't worry. What I mean is that if you have someone you like, or you won't love me at all, I will take the initiative to terminate the engagement and will not restrict you. I only say if, if, if!"

When Wang Chenhao was nervous, his English was really unsatisfactory, so he had to continuously emphasize that it was "if" Luo Xier then understood.

I saw her patting her breasts, and she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, no longer so nervous, and smiled and said, "So you are worried that there are other men outside me, right? I know that you Chinese men are very stingy, don't worry, I have no other boyfriend except you." Then, Luo Xier seemed to remember something again, and suddenly looked at Wang Chenhao with a blush on his face, and said weakly: "I am still a virgin. I will strictly abide by the customs of your country!"

Ahem!

Wang Chenhao suddenly coughed, but he didn't expect that Luo Xier could say this. Wang Chenhao looked at the two pretty maids Shi Shu and Si Qi standing next to him. The two girls also laughed secretly. Seeing Wang Chenhao looking at them, the two hurriedly lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Wang Chenhao's eyes.

It is obvious that in order to be a good wife in front of Wang Chenhao, Luo Xier must have to get information from the personal maid around Wang Chenhao. These two girls are Li Youyi's maids. They didn't like Luo Xier very much from the beginning. It seems that they have instilled a lot of things in Luo Xier.

"Am I wrong?"

, "No, no, no! You said it was right! You did a great job!"

Luo Hil blushed again, and Wang Chenhao didn't know what to say, but it was not convenient to ask."

He just glared at the two pretty maids in anger.

"I actually have nothing else to mean, just give you the right to choose freely. You don't have to worry that our marriage will affect my cooperation with your family. I just want to tell you that there is three months to one year between our engagement and our marriage, and you can fully consider it."

Luo Hil suddenly looked surprised, and the man in front of him was full of strange doors. In this era when most women were just trading goods, Wang Chenhao's actions made her feel.

"Then we can get married immediately! Because you are the only man I have seen who thinks good, a good man who can take care of me, and I have fallen in love with you."

Luo Xier's blunt statement made Wang Chenhao's brain fall back again. The two girls standing next to him immediately curled their lips and expressed their contempt. In the feudal and conservative thoughts of the two girls, the woman who said such words must be dàngfu.

"shameless!"

The two women's mouths moved slightly, but did not make any sound, but it is certain that they were extremely dissatisfied with Losheil's words.

After Wang Chenhao's brain was shocked for a while, he immediately smiled bitterly and said, "I look so ordinary,

I am a man of good fortune. With your conditions, if you fall in love with me, it is probably difficult for people to believe it if you fall in love with me!"

Losil smiled and said, "Believe it or not! When my father told me about this, I had ten thousand disagrees. But at the instigation of my stepmother, my father had no choice. Whether I agree or not, I would marry you as a concubine. So I took the opportunity to attend the Tsar's coronation ceremony in St. Petersburg and secretly investigate you."

Wang Chenhao suddenly realized that he also wanted to hear what kind of person he was in Luo Xier's eyes.

"Can you tell me?"

Luo Xier smiled with a sweet smile on Wang Chenhao. This made Wang Chenhao feel a little up and down. I don’t know what the image it would be.

"Of course!" Lohill said with a smile with a sly look in his eyes: "You are not handsome in appearance, and you are a yellow Chinese who discriminated against by Americans. To be honest, as far as your personal conditions are concerned, it is a cross in my heart!"

Wang Chenhao smiled disappointed and said, "There is no way, it's not my fault! I would have said hello to my parents before I was born!"

Luo Xier couldn't help but be amused by Wang Chenhao, burst into laughter and continued, "But, you are about the same age as me, better than the thirty or forty-year-old chaebol masters arranged by my stepmother. This woman has always disliked me and wants to harm me."

Luo Xier looked bad when he thought of her stepmother. Wang Chenhao couldn't help laughing and asked, "It seems that this is my only advantage!"

Luo Shier quickly regained his smile, saying, "It's more than this advantage! You have so many strange things that make me curious about you. You have military talents, which influenced the end of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. You are the national hero of your country. Your political vision "makes you the first name to be mentioned when Europeans and Americans mentioned China. They don't even know who the emperor of China is, but they know your name. You can say that you are synonymous with China. Your life experience is so mysterious. I went to Europe and asked about it. But the result is either your own life experience or four words."

"What four words?"

Wang Chenhao couldn't help but ask with concern.

"No one is found!"

Luo Xier stared at Wang Chenhao's eyes as he spoke, but found that Wang Chenhao had calmed down instead.

"what else?"

Wang Chenhao smiled calmly.

Lohill continued: "There is also that you were penniless when you returned to China, but soon you started from scratch and became the richest man in China in a short time. In the US gold run crisis, your American bank won nearly 100 million US dollars in profits. How did you judge thousands of miles away? When you went abroad, you found countless treasures from the seabed along the way, making you one of the richest people in the world overnight. How did you know where there were shipwrecks and treasures on it? You used this money to acquire some small companies in Europe and the United States. On the surface, they didn't seem to be anything, but these companies were emerging industries and had huge potential in the future. Do you know? From the day I paid attention to you, you gave me the feeling like you were a prophet.

Wang Chenhao still smiled calmly, but a huge wave of trouble in his heart was stirred up. If a single Luo Shier could make such a judgment on himself, then the cunning politicians in Europe and the United States would be secretly investigating, and their assessment of themselves would definitely be more comprehensive and detailed than Luo Shier.

People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Wang Chenhao suddenly found that many things are not under his control. And as his butterfly wings continue to swell, more and more unforeseen things will happen in the world under this time and space.

Wang Chenhao smiled faintly and said, "If I were a prophet, then I would know what you were thinking and there was no need to ask you."

Wang Chenhao's plausible answer cleverly responded to Luo Xier's guess.

Luo Shiel smiled slightly and said, "So your mysterious life experience and your magical deeds have attracted me deeply."

Wang Chenhao smiled and said, "This is not good! You must know that curiosity will kill the cat!"

Luo Xierjiāo said angrily: "I would have stopped curious about you earlier! But now I can't extricate myself. When I knew someone was going to play with you in the summer palace garden, I couldn't help but pick up the umbrella and take the initiative to help you. When the crowd was in a mess, I couldn't help but hug you. When you use your body to protect me from being bumped, I fell in love with you hopelessly!"

Wang Chenhao's eyes were fighting big, and his mouth was wide open. I really couldn't believe that he had such charm.

"I actually have this charm, and I don't know if I myself?"

Lohill smiled and asked back, "Do you love me?"

Wang Chenhao was somewhat defeated by Luo Xier's straightforwardness, and I don't know how to answer her.

"this"

Seeing Wang Chenhao hesitating, Luo Xier asked, "Aren't I Li Liang?"

"You are very peaceful!"

"I know you Chinese men don't like big women, that's called big brainless, right? But it doesn't matter, I can lose weight."

"Uh no, it has nothing to do with losing weight. I have the opposite aesthetic view of other Chinese men. I like women with plump figures like you."

"Then you like me!"

“Ah n I mean”

Wang Chenhao was about to say something, but Luo Xier had already stopped him like a wind.

When Shi Shu and Si Qi were next to him, they immediately covered their faces with shy hands when they saw this scene. They turned their backs and didn't dare to read them again.

"It's so stingy!"
