Chapter 39: Moonlit angel

  Chapter 39 Moon Night Angel

  San Francisco Bay Area Holiday Villas

  Stayed here for a few days and ate well and slept well. Fiona's originally pale complexion became hydrated and shiny again, exuding the infinite charm of a young girl.

   Trance

  Fiona will feel that she has returned to her private estate in Normandy, those beautiful and happy days in the memory, wearing expensive new Paris skirts, pouting her mouth in the garden, listening to a tutor explaining the history of European art...

  All the dreams were soon broken.

  Fiona had to face reality, and the situation in her home in Seattle was terrible;

  Father, the Earl of Normandy, was seriously ill in bed, and mother Yesenia not only had to take care of her husband who was seriously ill, but also to make ends meet. My sister, Nicole, is 12 years old and does not yet have a dress that can attend formal occasions.

  Two poor brothers, died in the terrible turmoil a few years ago...

  16-year-old Fiona was in the cardamom years and had to shoulder the burden of her family and came to California to earn a living.

  In the past few days, Fiona wanted to stop Li Fushou, who had left early and returned late, and asked for some salary advance.

  10 dollars...no...5 dollars will do.

  She has no money, not even a penny on the ferry, so she can’t go to Oakland to intercede with manager Ben Lewis.

  The fat bank manager Ben-Lewis looked at his eyes as if he was looking at a piece of cargo, not a living person, cold and without temperature.

   Fiona was so entangled in her heart that she told her it was best to go to Mr. Li.

  The lung disease of the Earl of Normandy can no longer be delayed, and the valuable things at home are almost sold. Yesenia can only put her face down and go to the small theater to sing in exchange for a meager salary of 40 cents a week.

   thought of here

  Fiona felt sad. Yesenia was a noble and elegant hostess, a focal figure in aristocratic gatherings, talking about the impressionist painter Monet's works with unique and profound insights, and always enjoying the lavish aristocratic life.

  But now... but I have to endure the pointing of the vulgar and rude civilians, and sing in the small theater.

  The most helpless person is Mr. Li, the oriental nobleman. These days, he always leaves early and returns late. He has endless banquets and busy things, and he has no time to pay attention to himself.

  Stayed in the villa all day with nothing to do, and did not see Mr. Li, Fiona felt so bored, she picked up a small branch boredly, and moved the soil on the ground.

  I don’t know how long has passed

  Suddenly heard the sound of a carriage, Fiona jumped up like a frightened rabbit, and ran with her skirt in her hands.

  In any case, I will stop Mr. Li today...

  Fiona ran as fast as the wind, and soon came to the door of the holiday villa, just to see Fan Asheng on the luxury carriage, Zhu Wei and others came down, carrying a leather document bag in her hand, and walked back talking and laughing.

  But... I didn't see Mr. Li.

  "Please wait for Manager Fan, I want to ask when will Mr. Li be back?"

"Are you alright?"

"Um……"

  Fiona bit her red lips in embarrassment, hesitating to speak out the difficulty, even if she borrowed some money for emergency.

  I didn’t expect Fan Asheng to say another sentence immediately afterwards; “I’m sorry, miss, you are a professional financial adviser sent by Citibank to the young master. We do not have the right to intervene in all matters concerning the young master. Please forgive me.”

  A few people passed by Fiona, their footsteps were much faster than usual, as if they were running away.

  Everyone is not stupid, dumb eats dumplings... just count.

  Young Master Li Fushou has a soft spot for this beautiful girl, although she is left aside temporarily, who knows when Xianyu turns over?

  Can this kind of thing be mixed?

   Fiona stomped angrily, raised her head and was about to ask the coachman, who knew that when the coachman yelled his whip, the carriage immediately went away.

  The girl stood there, not knowing what to do.

  Deep at night

At about 10:00 in the evening, two luxury carriages drove into the holiday villa one after another. The carriages were pulled by four tall horses. The horsebacks were draped with a large piece of purple-red velvet cloth, and a circle was woven with golden silk tassels. The pattern of the emblem of the nobility is a red valley standing high, towering into the clouds.

  A mighty dragon surrounds the valley, roaring up to the sky domineeringly, spitting out fires...

  This is a noble badge unique to Red River Valley, which is specially made by skilled embroidery workers. It is unique in the world.

  This kind of pattern is actually very taboo. In the Qing Dynasty, he would be detained immediately on a crime of intent to conspiracy, with clear evidence, and sent to the jail.

  There is no such precedent in European countries. The emblem of the British royal family is a lion and a unicorn, the emblem of the French royal family is an iris flower, the emblem of the Russian tsar is a double-headed eagle, and other great nobles are nothing more than flowers and plants.

  In Li Fushou’s vision;

  The Chinese blood is the descendant of the dragon, and the Red River Valley is where the Chinese took off in Australia. The meaning of this pattern is very good.

  As for making taboos, I didn’t really think about it too much.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Li Fushou himself is not too cold for the Manchu regime that entered the pass. He has a heart to restore the majesty of Han and Tang Dynasties, and to restore my Chinese ambitions, he resolutely took the lead in cutting off the braids.

  What do others think, and what does it matter to me?

  The carriage stopped

  The servants in the villa, under the leadership of the housekeeper, had already greeted them, and there were a few of them standing by their side respectfully.

Hu Tiesheng, the personal bodyguard, took the lead to get out of the car and looked around. Li Fushou, who was holding the carriage door, wearing an evening dress and a dome hat, got out of the car. His expression was a little tired. There was a revolving dinner party and aristocratic ball entertainment. It made him feel overwhelmed.

   "Welcome the master (young master)!"

  Exhausted physically and mentally, Li Fushou didn't want to talk any more. He flicked his cane and moved forward. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.

  In the flower bed

  There is a beautiful angel-like person reclining in the blooming flowers and sleeping soundly. The cold moonlight is on the body, and the goose yellow dress shows a sculptural luster, which outlines the graceful curves of the girl.

  This aristocratic girl who looks like Audrey Hepburn has a slender neck pillowed in the flowers, showing an elegant arc.

  In his sleep, tears were on his white face, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

  This scene was breathtakingly beautiful upon closer inspection. It instantly hit Li Fushou’s innermost softness, and his cold eyes softened.

  Under the hard shell camouflaged by this beautiful girl, a heart is already covered in bruises and needs careful care and love.

  At this moment, Fiona is so real, beautiful, sensitive and suspicious. She has experienced social turmoil and moved to North America. It’s hard for you to imagine what happened to her.

The butler next to    hurriedly wanted to wake Fiona, Li Fushou raised his cane to stop him, and shook his head slowly.

  Moonnight angels are not to be profaned.

  This night

  Fiona slept very sweetly. In her dream, she returned to the sunny Normandy manor, where the beautiful rose flowers covered the castle-like buildings.

  The sound of the piano came from the middle floor, and if the calm stream was flowing, the "Waltz of Spring" played by Yesenia used notes to outline the beauty of spring.

  Fiona led her little sister to pick strawberries in the garden. The sweet and sour red strawberries were full of juice and sweet to the heart.

  The sound of horseshoes

  A small group of cavalry galloped in from the entrance of the manor, whipping up a spot of smoke and dust.

   is the tall and handsome brother who came back with the guards. He is wearing the guard cavalry uniform of the French Third Reich. He looks very charming...

  ……………………

   Fiona, who has a persistent personality, has to wait for Mr. Li to come back. I don’t know how long after waiting, she actually fell asleep in the flower bed.

  The sun shone on her face in the early morning, and Fiona opened her eyes in confusion, and suddenly found herself sleeping in the flowerbed.

  But what's going on now?

  Under her body is a soft and warm North American bear skin cushion, and she is covered with a thin blanket of pure wool. The blooming flowers are tightly surrounded by velvet sails to block the cold spring wind.

   "Miss Fiona, are you awake?"

   "Oh... sorry Mr. Romney, I fell asleep without knowing what happened, but this..."

"Please don't care about these details, Miss Fiona, we have prepared the best toiletries and warm water for you, as well as a set of new spring suits sewn by master craftsmen in San Diego. You can give it a try in your free time to see if Fit, what else do you need?"

  Fiona was a little overwhelmed by the hospitality of Mr. Romney, the butler, and she had a vague guess in her heart, but she did not dare to say it.

  She is afraid that her dreams will come sooner and will shatter faster.

   "Ms. Fiona, if you are fast, you can still catch up to have breakfast with your husband." Mr. Romney couldn't help but reminded him when he looked at each other dumbly.

   "Oh, my goodness, I will go now."

   Fiona reacted violently, she jumped up quickly, and ran away with her skirt in her hand.

  Going around the pillars, a shadow disappeared. Her bedroom was in the backyard of the villa.

  "Miss, what we prepared for you..."

  The butler, Mr. Romney, saw Miss Fiona run so fast, he had to stop when he shouted halfway, his face was full of helplessness.

  What a lucky chick, she was actually taken by the noble Mr. Li, and she has no worries about food and clothing in the future!
