Chapter 115 Tang Family Mansion
Chapter 115 Tang Family Mansion
After entering, Liao Fan noticed that this store seemed to be a Bulgari clothing counter.
However, after Liao Fan explained his requirements, he received the same answer as at the Givenchy counter.
However, this time Liao Fan did not plan to try elsewhere, because he knew that under normal circumstances, this would be the case.
The second reason is that he likes that evening gown very much.
Since normal methods can't do it, Liao Fan plans to use some other methods.
"Miss, we really like that dress and we need it urgently. So, the price tag is 120,000 yuan. I'll give you 150,000 yuan. Can you get it ready before 5:00 this evening?"
Seeing that the salesgirl still shook her head, Liao Fan was not discouraged, but directly raised the price to 20.
The salesgirl hesitated about this and after about 2 minutes of stalemate, she said she would ask the store manager for instructions.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, I saw a very elegant middle-aged woman slowly walking out of the lounge.
"Sir, thank you very much for choosing Bulgari. I've just understood your needs. If you really want to raise the price by 20, I can help you communicate with our tailor and try to ensure that you can pick it up tonight."
Hearing the female store manager's words, Liao Fan knew that this matter had a play, so he added more fire and said: "Well, if you can help me match a one-button dress suit for the family dinner, I agree to double the price.
But I have to pick it up before 5pm today. If you can guarantee that I can get the clothes on time, you can issue the invoice now."
When the female owner heard Liao Fan's words, her eyes lit up.
Although she had just said she'd try her best, that was just to leave herself a way out. There was always a chance things wouldn't go as planned. But now this sponsor was actually buying another dress. If she could really sell these two dresses for four, she would have already met her KPI for this month!
As for the tailors, that's just an excuse. With the status of their brand, it's impossible for them to have a backlog of orders like ordinary clothing stores.
It’s not difficult to jump in line early and take it away today.
Thinking of this, the female store manager seemed to be worried that Liao Fan would go back on his word, so she took him to the counter to get a receipt.
However, Liao Fan asked that the fact that the goods would be picked up today be written in the notes of the receipt, and said that if he could not get the goods by then, he would ask for a full refund.
Time flew by and it was afternoon. When the hotel waiter brought the dress Liao Fan had reserved, the other girls all looked at Tang Yunong with envy.
There's no way around it, the dress Liao Fan chose is just too beautiful.
Not to mention attending a family dinner, it is more than enough for even a business reception.
When Liao Fan and Tang Yunong arrived at the hotel lobby dressed neatly, the car arranged by Tang Shilong was already waiting at the door.
Walking out of the hall, Liao Fan took a look and thought, wow, it's still Lao Er~
However, Liao Fan and Tang Yunong were not inexperienced, and they drove in silence along the way. Soon, the car drove into a quiet courtyard with elegant decoration.
Looking through the car window at the environment outside, Liao Fan felt a surge of complaints about Yang Xue in his heart.
Look at others and then look at what you found, why is the gap so big!
However, Liao Fan was just complaining in his heart and did not really blame Yang Xue. After all, everyone knew that a mansion of this scale was not something that a little girl like her who had just been in Hong Kong for a month or two could easily find.
But understanding is understanding, and it would be a lie for Liao Fan to say that he is not envious.
Not to mention the decoration style or anything, just look at the floor area. It took more than 2 minutes to drive all the way from entering the gate to parking in front of the house, and this is the straight-line distance.
You can imagine how big this yard is. The horizontal elliptical artificial fountain in front of the gate alone has a horizontal diameter of nearly 100 meters.
But when the car slowly drove from the gate all the way around the hot springs and stopped in front of a three-story Georgian-style villa, Liao Fan looked at the magnificent villa and felt emotional. Fortunately, he had bought this outfit specially this time, otherwise he might really be looked down upon by others.
After the car stopped, Liao Fan quietly took two sets of deep breaths. After the driver opened the door, Liao Fan bent down and walked out of the car. After that, he held Tang Yunong's hand very gentlemanly and patted it lightly with his hand to catch the trace.
Feeling the movement on her arm, Tang Yunong's heart was filled with sweetness. Not long ago, she had never been able to attend such high-level dinners or cocktail parties, and she had to be alone. This time, there was finally a man who could shelter her from the wind and rain.
"Ahaha, Brother Liao, you're finally here. Look, look, you're so handsome, and your wife is so beautiful too. But there's really no need for you to dress so formally. It makes me so embarrassed."
It turned out that just when Liao Fan was about to take Tang Yunong up the stairs, Tang Shilong had already come to meet them. However, compared with Liao Fan and the other two who were dressed in formal attire, he seemed a little too casual.
A white shirt, white trousers with fake suspenders, and a pair of shiny burgundy Chelsea leather shoes.
Although it is considered formal, it is far inferior to Liao Fan and the others.
"Don't come on, you're a young master, but you're dressed so formally in your own home. How can we, as guests, treat you so casually? Even this feels a bit abrupt to me."
"Eh~ Why didn't I realize before that you and our old man are actually the same type of person? Pretending! You're really good at pretending. I don't know who it was that night, blowing so coquettishly on the stage! Ahhhh, it hurts!"
"Alright, alright, let's go, the other old man has been waiting for too long."
Hearing that Tang Shilong was about to tell what happened in the bar that night, Liao Fan hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Tang Shilong's waist. He glanced at Tang Yunong with a guilty conscience, and seeing that the other party seemed not to notice, he hurriedly urged Tang Shilong to lead the way.
Tang Shilong also reacted immediately after his spell was interrupted.
The girl Liao Fan brought that night was not the same person standing quietly beside him now. If he accidentally let the secret slip, Liao Fan would be in big trouble when he returned.
Thinking of this, Tang Shilong stopped joking and walked in front to lead Liao Fan and Tang Yunong all the way inside. On the way, he also temporarily acted as a tour guide to introduce to Liao Fan and the others the people represented by the portraits on the wall of the corridor.
Little did they know that all of this was seen by a figure at the third-floor window.
In fact, Liao Fan had already noticed that someone was watching him when he got off the car, but this time he was visiting as a guest, not looking for trouble.
Therefore, after feeling that there was no hostility in that gaze, he did not take it too seriously and just thought that the elders in Tang Shilong's family were curious about him.
Following Tang Shilong, the three of them walked through twists and turns and arrived at a spacious and bright living room.
Seeing an energetic old man approaching, Tang Shilong took the initiative to introduce him without waiting for Liao Fan to ask: "Brother Liao, this is Uncle Xu, our family's old butler. He has been our family's butler since my grandfather passed away years ago. His ancestor is from the mainland. I think his name is Hu Jian? Is that right, Uncle Xu?"
"Yes, young master, it's been many years since I came to Hong Kong from Guangzhou.
I guess these two are the distinguished guests that Grandpa mentioned. Please take a rest first. The master is still upstairs. I will go and call him. Please wait a moment."
After saying that, the energetic old man turned around and walked out. From what he said, he should be going to find the old man that Tang Shilong mentioned.
However, Liao Fan was not thinking about these things at the moment. Instead, he was recalling Tang Shilong's words. If he remembered correctly, there seemed to be no place called Hu Jian in the mainland?
As if guessing what Liao Fan was thinking, Tang Yunong leaned over to Liao Fan's ear and whispered, "It's Fujian, with an accent."
So that's how it is. However, Liao Fan suddenly remembered what Xu Bo said, and for some reason he muttered, "This Xu Bo is really lucky."
