Chapter 1120 You Can Go
Several girls turned their eyes to the door and saw two men in suits walking in. One was white and the other looked mixed-race.
"Linda, who is that?" a girl asked.
The girl holding the champagne glass said, "That white guy is Billy d'Orléans, Prince of Beaugency, France. He's a pure-blooded royal aristocrat. He used to be a playboy, but I don't know what's happened to him lately. He's suddenly become chaste and stays away from women. He's been inseparable from that mixed-race man."
"He's gay?" a girl next to him asked in surprise.
Linda shook her head. "Who knows? Even if he's gay, I'm qualified to straighten him out! At worst, we can just work together. It's not like we haven't done that before. Don't try to compete with me. This is my goal."
After she finished speaking, she pulled her dress down, and the cleavage of the already deep V-neck dress became even deeper.
A girl nearby asked, "Linda, do you need a wingman to help you? Don't worry, I'm not competing with you. I'm just trying to increase the success rate. We agreed that no matter who succeeds, we'll share resources, right? Isn't that what we used to do?"
"You?" Linda held her chin in her hand and thought for a moment, "Let me think about it."
At this time, the oriental girl suddenly said: "Huh? Why are they together?"
Several people tilted their heads together. The 'Prince of Beaugency' and the mixed-race man were standing together with Xiao Peng, who they had despised at the beginning. The three of them were chatting in low voices, and no one knew what they were talking about.
"Hiss." Linda gasped, "I've met a master!"
"What do you mean?" Several girls looked at him together.
Linda explained, "Do I even need to ask? Don't you understand? 'Prince of Beaugency' is gay! And he likes Asian men! That Asian man and I have the same target, 'Prince of Beaugency' Billy! Damn it!"
"What should we do then?" asked a girl next to him.
Linda thought for a moment and said to the oriental girl, "Huang, come with me to see if there is any improvement."
Huang was stunned after hearing this and shook his head. "Linda, I won't lie to you. My appearance doesn't conform to the Eastern aesthetic, which is why I hate Da Xia! It's not a good idea for me to cooperate with you."
She was not being polite when she said this, as she looked very similar to Hollywood actress Lin Jiazhen.
What? Who is Lin Jiazhen? Her stage name is Awkwafina. In 2020, she won the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in The Farewell, becoming the first Asian person to win a Golden Globe.
Putting aside her acting skills, her appearance definitely aligns with Western stereotypes of Asian beauty: single eyelids, a wide mouth, prominent ears... She looks like she's modeled after Mulan from the animated film "Mulan." Oh, and there's a slight hunchback too. Her appearance alone is incredibly comedic.
I heard she later played the leading role in the Marvel movie Shang-Chi, but it wasn't even allowed to be broadcast. Compared to Lin Jiazhen, this "Huang" is a little better - at least she doesn't have a hunchback.
Generally speaking, there is a big gap between the aesthetic concepts of the East and the West. If this "Huang" were placed in China, she would not be a so-called "beauty", but here she is the representative of the popular "exotic style".
But here's the problem: although she is liked by these Western men, among the three men on Prince Beaugency's side, except for Billy, the other two are either Oriental or a mixed-race with Oriental ancestry, so her appearance really has no advantage.
What's more, these three people are gay.
Linda said, "Huang, it's okay. Just cooperate with me. You're responsible for attracting the attention of 'Prince of Beaugency', and I'll take care of the rest! 'Prince of Beaugency' isn't completely gay. You know, my friend in France used to mess around with him for a while, and he was really crazy. I guess he's just trying something new now."
Huang nodded after hearing this: "Since you said so, I will cooperate with you!"
Linda turned to the other girls and said, "What are you standing here for? Go find your target! Don't waste time and don't let others get there first!"
After hearing this, the other daughters came to their senses and dispersed.
Linda was not in a hurry. She went to the bathroom with Huang to touch up her makeup. When she came out, she saw Billy and the other two standing by a high round table, looking at a painting on the wall and drinking. There was a whole bottle of champagne on the table. The three of them were pointing at the painting on the wall and talking about something.
Huang was shocked and said, "Linda, that Prince Beaujense is drinking there too, and he's not just sipping it sip by sip."
"What do you know!" Linda said, "Look how generous he is. To him, what's the use of Boerkov champagne? That's just a drink, like Coca-Cola to us. Do they care about the cost of the drink? Don't use our financial situation to judge a rich man like him!"
Huang suddenly realized: "Linda, you really know a lot!"
"Of course!" Linda said with a hint of pride, "Huang, it's your turn now!"
Huang understood and walked over with Linda. Billy and the other two were looking at a painting on the wall when a girl's voice suddenly came from behind them. "This is Vermeer's 'Girl Reading a Letter at Bedside.'" By depicting a woman reading a love letter in a sun-filled interior, Vermeer expressed the Dutch people's pursuit of a happy life. This painting not only fully reflects the Dutch people's preference for a clean environment and an elegant and comfortable atmosphere, but also, as you can see, the painting has solid forms, delicate structure, and bright and harmonious colors. The use of color contrast highlights the indoor light and sense of space. Vermeer's work is truly of exceptional quality. It's for this reason that he's considered one of the three great Dutch painters, along with Hals and Rembrandt."
Billy asked curiously, "Idol, is she right?"
The person he called his 'idol' was of course Xiao Peng. Xiao Peng nodded and said, "Of course it's correct. The above passage is from the Royal Netherlands Academy of Fine Arts' textbook, 'History of the Dutch Little Masters,' and it's practically verbatim. Student, you've learned very well! And student, you're so good at memorizing, are you from Daxia?"
I swear to God, he said this with good intentions, but when it reached Huang's ears, it took on a different meaning - in her eyes, Xiao Peng was mocking her!
"Humph!" Huang said angrily, "I stopped being a Daxia person three years ago! My name is Zoe Huang! I'm Dutch! I'm ashamed to be associated with Daxia people!"
Xiao Peng was startled after hearing this, then he smiled and said, "You can leave now!"
"Why?" Huang was stunned. "Why would you let me leave?"
"Because I am a Daxia person whom you are ashamed to associate with!"
