The next day, December 23, when you get off work on Friday.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and the day after tomorrow is Christmas, and it happens to be the weekend again.

So for Americans, this year's Christmas holiday will be postponed and there will be two more days off after New Year's Day.

The whole Watson was filled with the atmosphere before the festival and had no intention of working. After all, this is the longest holiday for American adults in a year.

All colleges at Georgetown University, regardless of grade, have dinner parties at noon, and the food served in the cafeteria is better than usual. There are no classes in the afternoon, so students can freely arrange social gatherings before the festival.

In the embassy area, three kilometers north of Georgetown University, most of the staff in the country, except for the necessary duty, the rest of the people also got off work earlier than usual.

After all, there are only a few Chinese people who work so hard.

"Director, then I'll leave first. I've already agreed with Sister Ji that I'll let her take my shift tonight and that I'll make up after I come back on Christmas."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Wan went to say hello to the director very dedicatedly.

The "Sister Ji" she mentioned was a third-class secretary in the embassy, ​​and was even lower than Ye Wan, but she was already 30 years old and had only reached the third-class secretary.

The director was very kind: "Aren't you doing official business? What are you talking about? Ambassador Yang has approved it. It's fun and you don't have to make up for the shift when you come back."

Ye Wan was very humble: "How can you be so embarrassed? Work is just work and you won't have fun. Oh, that's not what I mean, anyway, thank you."

Ye Wan felt very frustrated when her boss asked her to have fun.

After Ye Wan negotiated with her leader, she picked up a small, exquisite, trademarked Hermes Kelly bag she brought today and walked into a mirrored lounge.

Then lock the door and then take out lip gloss and other cosmetics such as foundation from your bag.

She usually doesn't bring a bag and doesn't put on makeup when she goes to work. She has a very simple style. Today is a forced one - so that she can find a place to put on makeup after get off work, so as to avoid putting on makeup to work, which makes her look disrespectful.

Work needs, not easy.

As for the bag, she didn't care about the good or bad, but when Gu Ao stuffed it to her yesterday, she told her very sincerely that these were trial suits that cost money. She confirmed that she knew she didn't violate the discipline, so she reluctantly couldn't accept it.

Gu Ao didn't lie to her, because this customized Hermes Kelly really doesn't have any money.

The Paris-based Hermes brand is very knowledgeable about winning over fashionable celebrities and aristocrats in France and even surrounding areas.

Although the Hermes brand is very expensive and stylish to the common people, when you see the princes and princesses around France, you have a very low attitude and are custom-made for free for the other party to try out, and ask the other party for help to advertise.

Hermes' "Kelly" series, as the name suggests, is the endorsement of Princess Monaco, Oscar winner, and Grace Kelly. Every year, she gives away many Princess Kelly for free.

Gu Ao usually doesn't need a bag. When they were discussing business cooperation with the Monaco family last year, they had much more courtesy and insisted on giving it to Gu Ao casually, so Gu Ao took it away. He kept it there and didn't take much care of it.

Fortunately, the storage was pretty good, and there was no sign of dry crocodile skin.

When Ye Wan received it, she blamed Gu Ao for saying, "Even if you don't have money, you should cherish things. It's really wasteful to give it to you. If you don't respect and ruin it, it's better for me to keep it for you."

Ye Wan first washed her face and then applied it lightly, then applied it with some exquisite operations, pretending to be naked makeup, and finally put on lip gloss.

"These are the custom cosmetics, bags, clothes used by European princesses, princesses... but that's all." Ye Wan kept reminding herself in her heart while looking in the mirror, but her body was not satisfied and felt that she couldn't let go.

It took her half an hour to finish dressing up, which was the longest time she had to clean up. The dinner dress she was wearing at this moment was said to be the same alternative style when Princess Caroline attended the Cannes Film Festival awards ceremony last year.

(Note: Please note that Princess Caroline is the eldest princess of Monaco, and Gu Ao didn't sleep with him. Don't mess it up.)

After putting it on, Ye Wan felt a little embarrassed and didn't dare to walk out of the lounge, so she kept waiting in the room for Gu Ao to drive to pick her up.

After the time came, Gu Ao waited at the door of the embassy for a while. He thought Ye Wan would come by himself, but he didn't see anyone after the time came, so he had to drive Braham to the ring flower bed at the entrance of the embassy building.

Ye Wan then rushed out "swoosh" and rushed into the passenger seat, not letting her colleague see clearly what dress she had changed.

As soon as he got into the car, Ye Wan complained viciously: "Those European princesses and princesses are really not things! They even wear such strange costumes at the award ceremony of a film festival! There is no such thing as noble and elegant! So are you, let me wear summer dresses in winter, if the air conditioner was not turned on, hum."

"Yes, yes, you are more knowledgeable and noble and elegant than them." Gu Ao was too lazy to care about it. Anyway, the victim was not around, so he would just complain.

He handled Ye Wan casually, kicked the accelerator and headed straight to Akio Morita's "Ambulatory Club" club.

Ye Wan subconsciously stroked the calfskin seat and door lining, and asked, "Are there any specific tasks tonight?"

Gu Ao drove: "There is no task, our responsibility is to eat, drink and play. To be specific, if men talk about major events, just chat with the minister's wife and the president's wife."

Ye Wan: "Then do you have something big?"

Gu Ao was impatient when asked, so he had to tell him: "I'm afraid of you. Forget it, let's show up with you, and I don't care about betraying my colleagues - Secretary Schultz and others, just come to eat, drink, have fun and support the store. The Secretary of State is well-behaved and can have any deals with business people.

Tonight, the main thing is former Minister Peterson and several other people who have entered the business world, wanting to find wealthy businessmen to attract some investment and mediation of intermediaries. Since Akio Morita came to work as an owner, he might play Morita.

But I told you, Nicole, don't let the wind go. If Peterson fools Morita at that time, and blames you and me for bad things, then you will be no one inside or outside."

The reason why Gu Ao knew this was because he helped the tutor to help the guests.

On the other hand, he also heard Luo Pang "get" the column "listen to this book every day" on the subway in his previous life. When listening to the literacy books such as "Sony's Secret History", "The Choice of Black Stone", and "The King of Capital", he happened to have seen anecdotes and interesting stories about Yidian's ears.

After hearing this, Ye Wan's first reaction was that she was surprised that the former American ministers were doing so miserable: "You are talking about Peterson, Peterson, right? The business manager who was the same as Kissinger ten years ago? Are the business managers in the United States so miserable after retirement? Can't they bring in a few wealthy businessmen to support?"

Although he has been working in the United States for nearly three years, Ye Wan still doesn't accept this setting very much.

Of course, it has something to do with her only caring about American politics and not caring about business and the unspoken rules of the "revolving door".

She imagined and compared the domestic imagination in her mind, and always felt incredible.

Gu Ao explained with a smile: "They only served as the business manager. In just a few years, they went from business to politics and then continued to work in business, and their influence was even worse. After Nixon resigned, Peterson went to the big investment company and Lehman Brothers became the president.

However, this year, Lehman Brothers has a serious internal strife. It is necessary to introduce external major shareholder Yuntong to acquire Lehman. Peterson and his old partner Schwartzman don't want to wade into the muddy waters of Yuntong and Lehman Brothers. They want to take advantage of the remaining power to cheat a fat sheep and invest money for them, and prepare to come out and recruit a group of people to set up another mountain."

Historically, Peterson's new company was the famous investment giant in Manhattan in later generations, "Blackstone Group".

The Yuntong Company mentioned by Gu Ao is the financial company with very famous credit cards in the United States. Many rich and pretentious cities have to take advantage of the centurion of Yuntong, black gold cards and other pretentious things.

As for the Lehman Brothers, it was right, it was the product of scandals during the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008. Because Lehman lost a lot of money from investing in retail investors, his executives were still receiving high salaries. When he was taking care of his health in a gym in Manhattan, he was beaten up by New York citizens.

Ye Wan stroked it: "So, will Akio Morita be regarded as a fat sheep tonight?"

Gu Ao: "It's not planned. They just wanted to catch a fat sheep and get a shot with dates or dates. Akio Morita happened to want to treat her, so she ran into the door - don't talk so much. You haven't promised me yet. Don't let go of the flaws in a while and ruin the good things of Peterson and Schwartzman. Will Akio Morita be caught? Each depends on his IQ. We don't help each other, and I don't want to offend anyone."

Ye Wan pouted: "You are not at ease with me when doing things? If you say nothing, there will be no flaws. I am too lazy to care about the Americans and Japanese who bites the dog and who will cheat whom."

After explaining to the girl, the "Ambulance Club" also arrived. Gu Ao stopped Braham at the door and then naturally took Ye Wan in.

"Hello Mr. Gu, please go directly to the top floor." The female receptionist at the door did not ask about Gu Ao's identity and directly guided him.

As for Ye Wan, no one had ever thought of asking about her identity, or was amazed at her luxurious and elegant outfit and makeup, as if she was just pretending that Ye Wan did not exist.

This is also the professional quality of a top private club. The service staff will not have any complaints or slants about any women VIPs bringing.

"It seems that you are very familiar with this place. The receptionist knows you. You have often come here to spend the rest of your life in the past two years." Ye Wan hummed these words almost with the sound of her nostrils, and in Chinese.

She seemed very uncomfortable with this ignored atmosphere.

"There aren't this work required a few times." Gu Ao admitted frankly, thought for a while, and then added with great care, "Don't worry, when you get upstairs, you will need to formally introduce you - it's just that there is no need to introduce you to those who serve you."

Ye Wan turned her face and refused to comment on the explanation.

The elevator soon reached the top floor. When Gu Ao stepped into the banquet hall, he saw that Secretary Schultz and Kissinger had not arrived yet, while Akio Morita and Peter Peterson, Schwartzman, and consultant William Clark were all there.

"President Morita, Secretary Peterson, Consultant Clark, I'm not late."

Peterson: "Hey, don't call me minister, I'm just the president of Lehman Brothers now."

"We have come early. These ladies are all the ladies of all the guests - I don't know if this one is..."

When Akio Morita said this, he first surrounded the four female guests for a half-way pointing to Gu Ao.

"This is my college classmate, Miss Ye, currently the second-class secretary of the embassy. I have never had a female companion in Watsonton, so I will invite her tonight. President Morita will not bother you."

Akio Morita smiled and said politely: "Where are, Gu Sang, the friends you make are really young and promising, and they are all very popular. Miss Ye is the same age as you, and she can hold an important position in the embassy. Her future in politics may be no less than your achievements in the business world."
