Chapter 1118 1117. Messed up (15)
Callestan personally made coffee for Li Du, which was fragrant and sweet.
The two sat in a small hall on the west side, looking out at the red clouds in the sky and the sunset over the long river, looking down at the endless green space of Central Park.
Even though it is already winter, there are still greenery everywhere below.
"It's great here." Li Du put down his coffee cup and sighed softly.
He has never felt that he is different from the past like he is now.
Even though he had money and property before, when he stayed in Australia and Africa, it didn't matter how much money he had, and he was not much different from ordinary tourists.
When he returned to the United States, he lived in a suburban villa in Phoenix. It was a big villa, but it had nothing to do with the rich. The middle class in the United States could live in a big villa.
So even though there were more than 400 million funds in his bank card, he still didn't think it was a big deal, it was just a series of numbers.
Now, sitting above New York City, he finally understands how far he is from his past self.
Before he came into contact with the gem industry, even the day before, Li Du never imagined that he would have the wealth and status he has today. He could sit in the private house of a famous New York rich man and enjoy the sunset and drink coffee with him.
As for before getting the little flying insects? He even somewhat forgot what he looked like at that time.
Confused about whether to eat beef burgers or chicken burgers, feeling distressed about buying a Jeanswest, melancholy about the rent of two or three hundred yuan a month, and sometimes even panic because of the roar of a strange black man.
Slowly, Li Du remembered himself at that time.
Callestan asked curiously: "What are you thinking? Believe it or not, I probably guessed it?"
"Guess what?"
Callestan said: "You are thinking about your previous life, comparing what you had before, and feel that life is amazing, and you have changed so much."
Li Du was taken aback, and calmly expressed his thoughts, and finally concluded: "You are right, life is so amazing, I never thought that I would become like this."
Callestan laughed, and Li Du said again: "Now I can add one point, some people are really amazing, and my thoughts are under their control."
Callestan waved his hands again and again at these words, and said, "No, no, no, I'm not an expert at manipulating people's hearts, but I'm too familiar with your expression just now. In comparison, your buddy is calmer."
Brother Wolf sat next to him drinking coffee in silence, and occasionally looked around, but his eyes remained unchanged.
Li Du smiled and said, "It's not fair for you to compare me with him. He has really seen the world."
Brother Wolf has been to many places as a bodyguard, such as Sanssouci Palace in Germany, Cologne Cathedral, Neuschwanstein Castle, and even boarded the Brandenburg Gate.
Hearing this, Callestan spread his hands and said, "Look, it turned out that I was wrong again. I found the wrong comparison person. Just like the first time we met, I saw you as an ordinary child."
Li Du said: "At that time, we did have some misunderstandings. Maybe I hurt your child before, and when we met, I behaved rather aggressively."
Callestan waved his hand and smiled: "You know, we are both victims of this incident, right? The conflict between you and my two bastards is not an accident."
Yes, this is Cole's plan. He knows how troublesome the two sons of Callestan are. He believes that Li Du and these troublesome young people can't get along, and the two sides will eventually have conflicts.
His plan was very successful, and Li Du and Carlestan became rivals.
Callestan added: "The biggest mistake I made was that I shouldn't underestimate you. The gambling agreement I made with you at that time was the biggest mistake I've made so far."
Li Du said: "It's not necessarily a mistake, it's mainly because of my luck."
Callestan said: "It's the stupidest thing to fight against people with good luck. Some people have strong backgrounds and some people have strong abilities, but they are not as good as good luck. In fact, everything can be explained by luck, can't it?"
"It's good luck that you were born into a big family; it's also good luck that you get the support of noble people; you have great ability, but you still need good luck to give you the opportunity to show your ability."
Li Du nodded. He was just lucky, but he was so lucky that he got the mysterious and extremely powerful thing called Little Flying Insect.
Callestan added: "My mantra in life is that if I'm not lucky, then I try to be friends with lucky people."
"This is a smart life creed." Li Du showed a thoughtful expression.
In fact, he thought it was nonsense, what is a lucky person? Luck is an uncontrollable and unpredictable thing. What is the difference between pursuing such illusory things and pursuing enlightenment?
Of course, he also knew that the reason Callestan said this was to flatter him and gain his friendship.
Li Du followed his words and went down, and the communication between the two was very pleasant.
The sun sets and the starry sky covers the earth.
Mrs. Callestan came over to greet the three of them: "It's time to eat, busy gentlemen, let your wealth planet stop temporarily, you have to replenish it with energy."
Li Du stood up with a smile, and said, "I can't wait for the planet, the smell from the kitchen has made me drool secretly."
At the dinner table, Karestan and his wife did not talk about the shares of Harry Winston, just like what Karestan said when he invited Li Du, they talked about marriage and life.
After a sumptuous and delicious dinner, Li Du wanted to say goodbye, but Kalestan left him to spend the night here.
"Believe me, Li, the morning here is so beautiful. When you open the curtains in the morning, you will see the sun jumping out of the ocean. At that moment, I bet your soul will tremble!" Mrs. Carlestan said .
Li Du was moved by her words. He likes beautiful scenery, especially the magnificent natural wonders.
New York is located on the east coast of the continental United States. To its east is the vast Atlantic Ocean. From this building, you can see the Atlantic Ocean far away, and you can watch the sunrise over the sea every day. It is indeed tempting.
Mrs. Callestan continued to smile and said: "I rarely see Calle chatting with a young man so happily. He is too old and likes to be with old men. I am worried that he will enter his old age early, so if I would be very grateful if you were willing to stay with him a little longer."
This made Karestan laugh out loud: "You despise me, will you abandon me when I'm old?"
Mrs. Callestan said indifferently: "Of course, I will throw you to Mars, so there will only be the two of us together."
Seeing the gentle smiles of the two, Li Du's heart moved, and he nodded, "That's really bothering you. I'm a bit presumptuous, and I stayed here the first time I came here."
"It's our honor." Mrs. Carlestan's expression was particularly sincere.
This is a place that Li Du especially likes about her. No matter what she says or does, she reveals a candor and sincerity.
After getting along, Li Du found that he seemed to have no hostility towards Callestan, which made him a little depressed, and his routine was messed up. At first he thought, it shouldn't be like this.
