I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 341: Magic City Style

The Dragon and Phoenix Hall on the 8th floor of the Peace Hotel in Shanghai Legend Hotel has a history of more than 80 years, and it is still the top restaurant in people's hearts.

The Peace Hotel was built by Victor Sassoon, a British Jew, in 1929. It was originally called Huamao Hotel and Sassoon Building.

Perhaps only the Peace Hotel is the most distinctive in the entire Nanjing East Road. The appearance of the whole building belongs to the Chicago School Gothic style, and the outer wall is made of granite stones. It is the first modernist building in the modern architectural history of Shanghai. .

Arthur is wearing a British-style haute couture suit, and Jiang Lai, who is holding his arm, is wearing a white simple dress dress with a black hollow flower belt around his waist. It looks simple and majestic, and his figure is very graceful. Her jet-black hair was combed obliquely to the left, and she walked into the lobby of the hotel through the revolving door from the entrance of Nandong together with the goddess Fan. When she entered, she could smell the fragrant floor tile essential oil, which had a sense of quality.

Zheng Bao, who had been waiting in the hall for a long time, saw his handsome classmate walking in with a tall and handsome, slightly young foreign guy on his arm, and a tall and burly guy with cold eyes and indifferent expression following the two of them. The bodyguard's eyes flickered slightly, and a bright sunny smile appeared on his face.

"Hehe, I finally waited for you here..." Zheng Bao smiled and greeted the smiling Jiang Lai, and then extended his hand very generously and calmly to greet Arthur in English.

"Hello, I'm Jiang Lai's friend, Zheng Bao. Welcome to Tianchao. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Thank you, hello. I'm Jiang Lai's boyfriend, Arthur Boleyn. You can call me Arthur. It's a pleasure meeting you." Arthur didn't speak Chinese, but smiled and talked with this very self who often talks on TV. Shaking hands with the little leopard seen on the Internet, speaking English.

Jiang Lai gave Arthur a funny and charming look. She knew that her little man was going to play a prank again, but she didn't expose it. Instead, she held Arthur's arm intimately, and said to the little leopard with a sweet smile: "You No matter what dish he ordered, his mouth can be ruthless."

"Don't worry, you can rest assured that I'm doing things. The most authentic and classic local dishes are guaranteed to satisfy your man." Little Leopard said with a guarantee, and then continued to talk to Jiang Lai in a low voice: "By the way, Was my greeting a bit casual before, didn't you say he was the earl? Should I say something about the most honorable earl?"

As he spoke, he sneaked a glance at Arthur, who was admiring the huge silver reliefs on the walls of the Octagonal Pavilion, one of the most iconic places in the Peace Hotel, while Jiang Lai teased with a grumpy chuckle: "Now that you know , why don't you say that?"

"Huh? You still need to greet me like that? Well, you're making a fool of yourself! I want to say it too, isn't it because I don't know how to say it in English.

. . "The little leopard said angrily, a little dumbfounded.

"Hehe, just kidding, don't do that, do as the Romans do, besides, we are a private party, he won't care, if it's a public place, if you can, you can add your Excellency." Seeing the little leopard's wry smile, Jiang Lai knew He has a face-saving character, he hastily laughed and said in a low voice.

"Hehe, that's good. However, you can, you can accept this kind of top quality, let Xiaochen and the others see it, and they won't be envious and jealous to death!" Little Leopard laughed jokingly.

There was a faint smug smile on Jiang Lai's beautiful face, but he blamed: "Don't talk nonsense." Then he turned to Arthur who was beside him and said in English: "Honey, let's go up."

Arthur smiled and nodded, and after nodding to Little Leopard, a group of five people came to the innermost elevator under the guidance of the welcome staff.

"This elevator is the old one that the old devil has kept. It is very flavorful and gives people a feeling as if they have traveled back to the old devil." In the elevator, the little leopard introduced with a smile, looking at Jiang Lai from time to time, gesturing to Jiang Lai. Lay translates for Arthur.

And Jiang Lai just pursed his lips and smiled, his beautiful eyes narrowed into crescent moons, while Arthur nodded and smiled and said suddenly: "It's really very flavorful, just like the plots in many old movies, full of feelings everywhere."

"puff--"

When Zheng Bao heard Arthur speak fluent Mandarin suddenly, he almost choked on his own saliva, his face was astonished, and he stared at Arthur with a smirk with his eyes wide open.

"Giggle..." Looking at Zheng Bao's expression, Jiang Lai couldn't help but snuggle up to Arthur's arm and laugh coquettishly, trembling wildly.

"Ahem. You two...really, disgusting!" The little leopard, who immediately thought of something, shook his head and looked at Arthur and Jiang Lai, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Hehe, my Chinese is only a little bit, don't worry, I didn't hear the whispers between you and her before..." Arthur continued to tease with a smile.

"I believe you are the one to blame, you two are very bad!" The little leopard also saw that Arthur is a character that can be played, so he didn't continue to be tense, laughing and complaining, trying to narrow the distance between each other.

"Hehe, Arthur is very gifted in languages. It didn't take long for me to teach him, and he can communicate in simple Chinese." Jiang Lai looked at Arthur sweetly, and then explained with a charming smile.

Seeing the sweet appearance of the two, the little leopard rolled his eyes angrily, and complained: "I should have known I shouldn't have come, but it's better now, because you are forcing me to eat dog food!"

"Hehe, you are very humorous. I heard Lai introduce you, big star, nice to meet you!" Arthur smiled and reached out to shake hands with the other party again, this time speaking in Chinese.

"What big star, don't listen to her bragging, she's just a rookie actor, I should be the one who should be happy to meet a nobleman from England, and he's a billionaire, quite a big shot!" Little Leopard said with a smile .

"Okay, don't be poor." Hearing the two people flattering each other, Jiang Lai's charming smile rolled his eyes at the two of them. Arthur and Xiao Baozi looked at each other and smiled. At this time, the elevator reached the eighth floor.

"Ding--"

When the elevator door opens, the lobby is paved with Italian marble. The square pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes stand all around. The luxurious style combines art deco and heavenly style. The distinctive luxurious arched dome sets off the classic crystal lamp. It's so atmospheric that you can't take your eyes off it.

"Longfeng Hall is the signature restaurant of the Peace Hotel. It mainly serves local and Cantonese dishes. It is also well-known in the entire Magic City. It has won many high-level awards in the catering industry." Little Leopard introduced Arthur like a treasure.

Arthur nodded while looking at the dark red tables and chairs in the restaurant, the green beams and columns with strokes, the whole restaurant is dominated by classic Chinese style. On the top of the center of the restaurant are carved golden dragons and golden phoenixes. The classic local dishes seem to be more attractive in such an environment.

At this time, a waiter came up to greet him. After the little leopard said a few words to the other party, Arthur and his party followed the waiter to the box. I have to say that the little leopard was really well prepared.

After sitting in the box, the little leopard ordered the waiters to serve, and then said to Arthur with a smile: "Let's taste the food first, and then go to the Jasmine Lounge for a few drinks. Have a look at the performance of the most representative senior jazz band at the Peace Hotel. This senior jazz band is composed of six musicians who have been in the music industry for more than half a century. The current average age is 72 years old.

The founder and captain of the band, Mr. Zhou Lao, and the jazz drummer, Mr. Cheng Lao, are both members of the first jazz band composed of Chinese people, the Jamie King Band, which was popular in the Paramount Ballroom in Shanghai in the 1940s . That is definitely the most beautiful scenery in the Peace Hotel! "

When Arthur heard it, he couldn't help but nodded and said in admiration: "Then I really want to appreciate it, and feel the pursuit and dedication of these old artists to jazz music!"

"Hehe, I will never let you down. To be honest, every time I hear their performance, I feel moved and worshipped!" Little Leopard said sincerely.
