Chapter 1121 1120. Adventurer (4/5)
Chapter 1121 1120. Adventurer (45)
Engagement is not like getting married. There are not so many complicated things. Everyone gathers together, then serves wine and food, eats, drinks, and plays together.
This is not a very formal occasion, so when Li Du invited Steve and Porter, he thought they would not come. After all, Porter is in Los Angeles, and Steve is in the northeast corner of the United States, which is too far away.
In the end, Steve still came. From this point of view, he was very loyal to Li Du.
This kind of party is an opportunity for everyone to get together. Sophie's father delivered a toast on behalf of the parents of both parties, announcing that after Li Du and Sophie got engaged, both parties toasted to celebrate, and then they could do their own activities.
Porter and Steve are the center of activity, and Cole and others surround them, which shows the importance of family energy in American society.
Li Du introduced Shengzi and Magic Hand to them, and it was useless for the treasure picker in Flagstaff City to introduce them, as the two sides were not in the same circle.
The five little gangsters searched for food in the crowd, but they didn't know who had offended Ah Meng, and Ah Meng jumped on the spot in anger.
"This puppy is really interesting." Someone laughed.
Li Du was in a cold sweat. He is an African beast, okay? He's a puppy. Haven't you heard that Africa is not chaotic, and the honey badger said that?
Sophie took out honey to appease Ah Meng. She stroked Ah Meng's flat head and turned to smile at Li Du: "Ah Meng doesn't know who stepped on Ah Meng, so he can only sulk."
This is the result of Honey Badger's mind being modified, otherwise with Ah Meng's character, if he can't find anyone, everyone will be his opponent and will bite one by one.
No one has ever seen the wisdom of the five little ones anywhere. They shuttled around the party, which caused a lot of jokes, and they were responsible for the atmosphere of the event.
However, Li Du knew that these little ancestors were not easy to serve, so he kept an eye on the little guys to prevent them from blowing up if they didn't want to.
At this time, Steve escaped from the circle of Cole and others. He came over with a glass of wine and gestured to Li Du: "Hi, Li, happy engagement, cheers."
Li Du clinked glasses with him. He thought that Steve's toast meant that everyone would have a drink, but the other party drank it all in one gulp!
Seeing this, Li Du hurriedly said: "Drink slowly, Steve, your body is important."
Steve smiled and curled up his arms to show off his muscles, and said, "I'm fine now. After I came back from Australia, I took new medicine. As long as I take the medicine regularly, my heart is completely normal."
Li Du also drank the wine in his glass and said, "That's not only a toast to my engagement, but also a toast to your body."
Steve smacked his mouth and said, "Actually, not only have I changed to a more effective drug, but I have also been exercising for a while. By the way, I heard you went to Africa?"
Li Du nodded: "Yes, I went to Africa and found a diamond mine there."
He felt that the turning point of Steve's previous paragraph was very blunt, and the other party was too sincere and enthusiastic towards him. To be honest, Li Du couldn't stand it.
Steve exclaimed: "I heard that, it's unbelievable, you found a diamond mine, this is a diamond mine!"
"Good luck," Li Du said with a polite smile, "I rescued a Pygmy who just happened to know the existence of diamond mines, otherwise how could I go to Africa and find a diamond mine?"
Steve said: "Then do you still have adventure arrangements?"
Li Du was taken aback, and asked back, "Adventure?"
Steve said: "That's right, you went to Australia and Africa, aren't you an adventurer? You are also friends with Adventurer Tang, you are all adventurers, right?"
Li Du blinked, he didn't understand what he said, so he continued to ask: "Adventure Wang Tang?"
Suddenly, he realized who Steve was talking about, so he continued to ask, "Tang Zhaoyang? Song Biaozi? A guy younger than me?"
Steve nodded quickly and said, "That's right, that's him, Adventure King Tang."
Li Du said: "I'm not very familiar with him, but have some business contacts. Maybe you don't believe it, but I don't even know what he does specifically, he is very mysterious."
Steve laughed and nodded again: "I believe you, you are right, he is very mysterious, he is a mysterious guy. Of course, he is also a very powerful guy!"
Combining the previous words and Steve's interests, Li Du pondered for a while and asked tentatively: "Do you want to go, take risks?"
Steve's expression suddenly became serious, and he smiled and said, "The men in our Tucenberg family are all adventurers. My dream since I was a child is to take risks in some mysterious places and see the magnificent and magical nature."
Li Du remembered that when he was in Australia, Steve had to accompany him to mine. At that time, he didn't understand why Steve had such an interest.
After listening to his words now, Li Du understands that Steve likes to contact with fresh food, and searching for mineral deposits is a kind of adventure, and he likes this kind of life style.
Li Du didn't know much about the Tucenberg family. He knew that Steve was related to the Vanderbilt family. The Vanderbilt family was engaged in the transportation industry, but he didn't know much about other aspects.
He fell silent, thought for a while and said, "You want to take risks? I don't quite understand, taking risks is very dangerous..."
"I know, but risks and rewards are often directly proportional. Taking risks can see a lot of things that only exist in imagination, and you can make money, like you, isn't it great?" Steve interrupted him.
Li Du still didn't quite understand what he meant: "Why do you want to take risks? I don't mean to offend, I'm serious, Steve, your family has status and money, you have everything, why do you want to take risks?"
Steve stared at him and asked, "What about you, why are you so adventurous?"
Li Du smiled and said, "I don't like taking risks."
"Australia and Africa, I know about your experience in Africa looking for diamond mines. You dealt with two warlords and overthrew one of them."
Li Du didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say, "I'm not going to take risks. I have to go to Africa because I have no other choice."
After hearing this, Steve showed a disappointed expression and said, "I see, it seems that I misunderstood you."
Li Du said: "You want to take risks because life is too boring?"
Steve shook his head and said, "No, that's one of the reasons. I want to take risks for many reasons, including my family heritage, my hobbies, and my responsibilities."
He sighed, and said helplessly: "I thought you were an adventurer like Tang, and I wanted to ask you for help. It seems that this is impossible."
Li Du said, "What's the matter? I'm happy to help you."
Steve said listlessly: "It's nothing, I'm going to the North Pole, but I can't do it myself, so I need the help of an adventurer."
