Chapter 147 A messy Christmas Eve (Part 2)

It was already past nine:30 when Lu Zheng returned to Lido Garden. After Eva received a call from her agent, Lu Zheng declined his offer to have another drink. I think Eva knew what to do.

On the way back, Lu Zheng bought some apples and calculated the number. The family members who came to the Ice City included the bodyguards brought by Mr. Xiaoshan Drew, each with one.

Mrs. Amaria was a little surprised when she received Lu Zheng's apple, but she immediately said "Thank you" happily

Lu Zheng said again: "Eva's matter has been resolved."

Mrs. Amaria said in surprise: "She is gone? How did you convince her?"

Lu Zheng said: "I don't think she will interact with Mr. Sandru again in the future."

There was no way to tell this Chinese son-in-law, but after his son-in-law left, Mrs. Amaria felt that she was trying hard to do something. Just as the son-in-law said, he could not do anything in China and could not kidnap the annoying woman. But unexpectedly, the son-in-law came out and came back and said that the matter was resolved, and that he would cut off relations with Mr. Sandru in the future?

Mrs. Amariya was stunned and then she realized that this Chinese son-in-law is not simple, too. The person that the young lady can like, so the son-in-law naturally has his own world. She resisted him before, but she couldn't see through many things.

"I'll tell my wife now." Amaria walked upstairs excitedly with her huge skirt.

Lu Zheng continued to send apples.

On Christmas Eve dinner, there were only Lu Zheng and Iris. While the two were having a meal, there was a vague quarrel coming from the upstairs. Then Mr. Xiaoshandru rushed downstairs angrily and asked the maid to pack a guest room for him and move his luggage down.

Iris looked at this scene, and although he didn't say anything, his clear big eyes slightly dimmed.

Lu Zheng said, "It's okay, you have a good meal, I'll go and have a look." When he got up, he smiled and said, "Don't be hungry, this is not our territory, I have no place to take you for midnight snacks." He was just a joke, and many maids followed him, and they prepared enough grain, rice and ingredients, so there would be no problem with what they wanted to eat.

Iris blinked his big eyes and nodded slightly.

Lu Zheng smiled in his heart. In the conflict between Mr. Drew and Mrs. Drew, Iris was still a child after all, and he didn't know what to do. Now he finally felt a sense of accomplishment as a husband. He joked with Aris, and Aris was also obediently taught.

When Lu Zheng came to Mr. Shandrew's room, Mr. Shandrew was leisurely sucking a thick cigar and listening to music. It seemed that the dispute with Mrs. Shandrew had no effect on his mood at all.

Mr. Drew seemed to have not seen him when Lu Zheng arrived. He closed his eyes and leaned lazily on the sofa and didn't move. He seemed to be immersed in the wonderful music of "Sernery".

Lu Zheng sat opposite him and said, "The tour guide's problem has been solved, and no one will cause trouble for her in the future.

Mr. Drew Xiaoshan slowly sucked the cigar: "In China, you must have a way." His eyes still did not open.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Yes, I admit this. Miss Berry was also talked to her. She promised to leave China tomorrow. I think she will also call you."

Mr. Xiaoshandru sat up suddenly and said in surprise: "So it's you?" His eyes were no longer very friendly when he looked at Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng nodded slightly: "It's me, I also promised to help Miss Berry appear in several big-scale movies.

Mr. Xiaoshandru said in surprise: "Did you contact her?" This time he was even more surprised.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I still have many friends in the West. My marriage with Iris is not because I need her social circle. Actually, you may not know that the wealth I can control is not much less than Iris."

Mr. Xiaoshandru looked at Lu Zheng in shock, but knew that Lu Zheng could not lie about this matter.

Lu Zheng also said: "Aris is very clear about my affairs. She didn't tell you because she knew that my affairs needed to be kept confidential. She thought that these things needed to be said by myself. According to the name of China, you are actually my father. Of course, I hope to be open and honest with you. My father-in-law, I hope to be very close friends with you.

Mr. Xiaoshandrew looked at Lu Zheng in confusion: "Did you marry Iris to avoid possible future punishment?"

Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment before he understood what Mr. Xiaoshandru meant, and said with a smile: "You misunderstood. I am not greedy for the wealth of our people. There is no punishment or punishment. I hope you keep it confidential because most of my wealth is overseas. Although most of the funds are in tax avoidance areas and are outside the supervision of major Western countries, if things are open and under public pressure, or if Americans think it belongs to red capital, they will definitely find ways to put pressure on me to cause trouble. This is unnecessary."

Mr. Xiaoshandrew nodded slightly and said, "I only now know why my father agreed to your marriage." The previous doubts gradually came up with answers. From a purely business perspective, marriage with such a person is also beneficial and harmless. As for his background and identity, having such a huge wealth, the worst result in the future will be to whitewash the background. What is the problem with immigration to Europe?

Lu Zheng said: "My father-in-law, I actually want to tell you the story of our Eastern clan. I know that most of your Sandru family's business is managed by Iris' uncle..."

Xiaoshandru immediately interrupted Lu Zheng's words and shook his finger, "No, no, no, I don't want to fight with Kuhn. Don't use your East to fight for power and profit to influence me."

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I never thought that my father-in-law would fight for anything, and Iris wouldn't care. My father-in-law is like a legendary figure in the world of the East, but I understand that Iris is free and easy. Moreover, my father-in-law may not know that Iris is already one of the most wealthy people in the world, and you don't need to compete with Uncle Kuhn for the leadership of the family."

Mr. Xiaoshandru was stunned. He never thought that his daughter had accumulated such a huge amount of wealth, but in front of this Chinese son-in-law, he could not ask questions without knowing anything.

Lu Zheng said: "But not fighting does not mean that Uncle Kuhn and others can ignore our room. My father-in-law, the room has a rich meaning in our Chinese. You and Iris' mother, including me and Iris, and our descendants, in the family led by Grandpa Iris, our family is called a house in Chinese. We are related to our weal and woe, and we share honor and disgrace, and we prosper and lose both. My father-in-law, you are handsome and talented. You don't like to pursue fame and fortune but play in the world. You should be respected by Uncle Kuhn and others. But if our room itself is not united, you will not be respected by outsiders..." Seeing what Mr. Xiaoshandrew wanted to say, Lu Zheng smiled and said: "You don't have to rush to refute me. In this kind of big family competition, we are a country, and Uncle Kuhn is an outsider. You understand it in your heart, right?"

Mr. Shandrew slowly squeezed out the cigar and remained silent.

Lu Zheng said again: "In fact, if you get the status you deserve in the big family, what is the Hollywood actress? You just call girls who come and go when you call them. You must first settle the house when you fight foreign countries. Over the years, I think it is because you and Iris' mother have not handled well that you give people the impression of a young man who does nothing in this big family. Now in this big family, the strength of our family is that even Iris' grandfather cannot disrespect you. If Uncle Kuhn still disrespects you, then my son-in-law will also empathize and will be very dissatisfied. My father-in-law, please forgive me for my abruptness. There is a saying in China that good medicine is bitter and honest. I hope to be friends with my father-in-law who can talk to you."

Mr. Xiaoshandrew's face was blue and white, and he remained silent for a long time.

Lu Zheng smiled in his heart. This is called transferring the contradiction. He pulled the foreign enemy in. The contradiction between Mr. Shandrew and Uncle Kuhn became the main contradiction. Originally, the contradiction between Mr. Shandrew and Mrs. Shandrew had decreased to secondary contradictions, internal contradictions, and the contradictions must be resolved to face Uncle Kuhn’s challenge.

In fact, no matter how open-minded Mr. Shandrew is, how could he not care about the fact that Kuhn's power in the family is increasing day by day and he is gradually being marginalized?

"My father-in-law, I've said goodbye." Lu Zheng stood up and said to himself that he would not mention the pocket watch anymore, just go there like this.

When I returned to the upper floor, Iris was still in Mrs. Drew's room. Lu Zheng went to take a shower and changed into his pajamas. While Iris was not there, Lu Zheng lay on the thick, soft, luxurious, European court-style bed, and lamented in his heart that he was going to sleep on the floor again today, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law were there, so he couldn't sleep in separate rooms with Iris.

The big bed was soft and fragrant, lying on it as if it was in the clouds, so comfortable that it was unthinkable. Just when Lu Zheng was about to fall asleep, a light knock on the door came. Lu Zheng hurriedly got up and Iris walked in.

Seeing Iris wearing a beautiful red and black plaid dress from a European aristocratic school, slender white cotton socks, blonde and blue eyes, pure and cute, Lu Zheng smiled.

Iris said: "Mom asked me to wear it and make her happy."

Lu Zheng nodded. In the eyes of Mrs. Xiaoshandru, she still hoped that her daughter was a normal little girl.

Iris asked, "You didn't eat dinner, right? I asked them to fry you the steak, but you haven't come out for a long time. I'll ask them to fry again."

Lu Zheng smiled and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm not hungry, today's amnesty? Can I eat steak?"

Iris blinked his big eyes and said, "I can't eat well on the plane at noon, so of course I should have more dinner."

Lu Zheng said helplessly: "I thought it was a Christmas Eve amnesty." He looked at the watch and said: "It's eleven o'clock, your biological clock is so on time, it's time to rest, right?" Seeing that her hair was wet, she should have taken a shower.

Lu Zheng opened the doors of several wardrobes, and there were a lot of bedding, so he pulled out a few to be put on the floor. Behind him, Aris said, "Mom said, thank you, she also praised you for your ability and helped her drive away the vixen."

Lu Zheng smiled: "She still knows the vixen." He walked over with a few quilts.

Iris smiled with a clear and big eyes and said, "Mrs. Amariah taught her Chinese allusions, she didn't know that this was a particularly bad thing."

Lu Zheng said: "There is nothing wrong. In our Chinese legendary stories, many vixen are both beautiful and kind, just satisfying men's fantasies."

"Lu Zheng, the floor here is too cold. You can sleep in the bed tonight. The bed is big, I won't touch you." Iris's body is slender and his small posture is particularly graceful and cute, kneeling on the bed, watching Lu Zheng busy, and suddenly said.

Lu Zheng was helpless and knew that Aris meant that she would not disturb her rest, but why did it sound so wrong, as if he, a big man, was afraid of her and what he did.

Iris's words are about to spread. Do you still have the attitude to meet others? It is not that they are not ambiguity, but that it is obvious that she is the dominant family.

Lu Zheng left the rest of the messy bedding, and only carried a velvet quilt to the bed. With a creaking sound, the big bed was crushed by him. Iris looked him up and down curiously, as if inspecting the goods.

Lu Zheng said helplessly: "So what's wrong?" In fact, he also knew that because he hadn't slept in the same bed with her for a long time, he had aroused her interest in somewhere.

Lu Zheng reached out and pressed the power supply to turn off the lights, and said, "Go to bed early." The taste of being observed by Iris was not very wonderful, not to mention that she had to change her pajamas.

Halfway through, Lu Zheng shrank his hand back, almost forgot the most important thing. Iris hadn't given her a birthday gift. She raised her wrist and looked at her watch and said, "Today Christmas Eve, let's talk, how about your birthday until midnight?"

"Okay." Iris lit up his head, blinked his big eyes, and said, "Let's play poker."

Lu Zheng turned a bitter face and said, "It's bridge again? Can your parents come? They're sleeping too?" Then he guessed that Iris might want to take the opportunity to repair the relationship between Xiaoshan Drew and his wife, and said, "I'll invite them here."

Before Lu Zheng moved, Iris had already stretched out his crystal clear and beautiful little hand and grabbed his sleeve, saying, "No, no, Mr. Sandrew has moved back upstairs. Don't disturb them. Can we play Zajinhua today?"

Lu Zheng was stunned. In the past, Iris didn't play this kind of poker game with him. Today, is this a reward given by him to help her parents reconcile?

Iris had already taken out the poker from the bedside table next to her, unpacked and shuffled the cards. She knelt on her knees, her gorgeous long platinum hair was shining brightly under the light, her blue eyes were lively, and her black and red plaid skirt covered her slender legs wrapped in snow-white cotton socks. She was so cute and seductive that she could not tell from her every move, she was like a little magician in the cartoon world.

Lu Zheng coughed. With such a pleasing little wife, there was no scenery outside.

"Let's bet something? Otherwise, it's boring. If Za Jinhua doesn't have a bet, it's better to play bridge." Lu Zheng suggested.

"Whatever you want." Iris shuffled the card and said, "You can become a dealer first." He handed the card to Lu Zheng, and naturally he wanted to let Lu Zheng go in everything.

Lu Zheng was helpless, why did he look like a little man who needed her care for him as long as he knew Iris for a longer time? After thinking about it, he said, "Let's bet on the bottom of one piece, the maximum heel is five yuan, the number of rounds is not capped, and you are not allowed to use checks, just use cash, and settle it once for one hundred yuan. Whoever loses one hundred yuan will take off one piece of clothing."

If there is still something unsatisfied with Iris, it is that her aristocratic habits are getting heavier and he is not like when she met her just now, she would occasionally act like a child. Now, she is too quiet and stylish. When talking about bets, Lu Zheng suddenly said that she would take off her clothes, wanting to see if she would cry and cheat if she wanted to take off her clothes if she lost.

After saying that, Lu Zheng felt a little regretful, feeling that he was like a scoundrel, but in front of this noble little guy, he could only be a scoundrel.

Iris blinked his big eyes and looked at Lu Zheng, saying, "Then you are at a disadvantage. If I guess correctly, you only have three pieces of pajamas, pajamas and underwear, and more than a dozen pieces on me."

Lu Zheng was speechless, why didn’t I think Iris had this kind of reaction? Yu coughed and said, “It’s okay, let me give in.”

Aris's little head was satisfied and said proudly: "I read it right. My husband is indeed a gentleman, but don't worry, I promise that you won't even remove the tie."

Lu Zheng was almost so angry that he was bleeding from his orifices. He went down to take his wallet from his travel bag, and lent a bunch of change to Iris, who had never had cash on his body. Then he started to deal cards with him with a fierce temper, thinking that I really can't cure you, a little girl movie.

However, many things cannot be done with determination. In this card game, Lu Zheng is really more determined than the sky and his life is thinner than paper. Iris is too smart and he doesn't show any signs. But you will make a mistake in judgment. When she thought she was bluffing, Iris must have taken the supreme card, and when she thought she was really having a big card, she was bluffing you again.

In fact, if the two parties don’t meet, Lu Zheng is not qualified to watch Iris’ cards according to the rules. But later, Lu Zheng abstained from the rules and would definitely cheat on Iris’ cards. Iris could do it, just like coaxing his ignorant little brother, who seemed particularly generous.

Whenever Lu Zheng read Iris' cards, he became even more furious. The more he was like this, the more he was in a loss of power. In a short while, he lost the first hundred yuan.

Lu Zheng gritted his teeth, took off his shirt, then woke up, and hurriedly said, "Down the lights." But it was too late, Aris stared at the scars of his upper body, and suddenly his eyes flashed with anger, saying, "Did it be the Vietnamese?"

Lu Zheng quickly waved his hand: "It's all over, and it doesn't matter to the ordinary Vietnamese people." He was really worried that Iris would turn upside down Vietnam, which had just established reform and opening up and contacted the outside world. Iris was angry. Who knew what she could do? Financial wars were not very effective in such centralized countries, but the little guy was lawless and had no idea of ​​right and wrong. It was not impossible to send two terrorists to detonate a small nuclear bomb in Hanoi.

Although she felt like she had become the knight she had summoned by Iris and was touched by someone else, her master was so angry that she was so warm in her heart.

"Are you cold?" Iris's crisp voice was soft, and she even handed over a blanket.

Lu Zheng took it and said, "It's not cold." The air conditioner in the house is very warm and warm, as warm as spring.

Iris sniffed his head: "The next one hundred yuan is your pants."

The faint warmth in Lu Zheng's heart was immediately wiped out, and he gritted his teeth and issued the cards.

The second one lost 100 yuan faster than the first one. Soon Iris counted the money in front of him and then talked to Lu Zheng, meaning that Lu Zheng quickly took off his pants.

Lu Zheng was extremely embarrassed. Why did he play tricks on this little guy? While he was thinking about it, the ground bell rang at midnight.

Lu Zheng hurriedly smiled and said, "Aris, happy birthday, and happy Christmas." As he said, he didn't know where to find a gift box wrapped in colored paper, handed it to Aris, and said, "Let's take a look with the gifts, let's take a break tonight. We'll be very tired tomorrow's schedule, so we won't forget about the game."

Lu Zheng said it was justified. Sure enough, Iris nodded slightly, not calculating with him as before.

Iris's interest now is on the gift. She tore open the wrapping paper and there was a small red sandalwood box inside. It opened it gently. In the box, there were two little clay figures in the red brocade, which seemed to be a man and a woman, and they were cute. Among them, the male clay figure rode a horse, and it could barely be seen that it seemed to be a knight, and the female was a little girl, short and small, with her hair platinum.

Lu Zheng said embarrassedly: "It doesn't look like it at all, right? But it's my highest level. I've learned from the clay man Zhang for a long time, and I made it myself."

Iris stared at the two little clay men in a daze, reached out to him, but was reluctant to touch him, and just said softly: "It's so cute, one is you and the other is me, right?"

Lu Zheng nodded slightly and smiled and said, "Okay, the gift has been delivered. I won't sing the birthday song. I'll sing it with my father-in-law and mother-in-law tomorrow, so go to bed." He turned around and turned off the lights.

With a "bang", the room fell into darkness, and then the faint night lights lit up. When Lu Zheng turned around, Aris suddenly came over and kissed Lu Zheng gently on the face. Then, she quickly retreated to the other side of the bed and whispered: "Good night."
