Stephen personally admitted the success of the stabilizer and verified it with the flame ability he mastered, making Zhang Lisheng ecstatic.
The 'stabilizer' that could successfully transplant the Gold Bond Pill might only be a shocking result in biology in the eyes of others, but to him, it was a shortcut to mastering the 'world' that appeared in the midst of his confusion.
Looking at his supervisor's figure disappearing into the night, he stood in front of the self-service bank and no longer suppressed the excitement in his heart. Clenching his fists tightly, he waved them around for a while before finally calming down and muttering to himself, "Calm down, Zhang Lisheng! Calm down! You have to eat one bite at a time and do one thing at a time!
Right now, the most important thing for you is to attend Senator Houg's manor banquet. In this current situation, it's crucial for you to develop your own force in the US politics, "Then, he strolled in the direction of his home.
Along the way, the young man could not help but shake his head a little, looking like he was talking to himself nervously. Many pedestrians subconsciously avoided him.
When Zhang Lisheng returned home at night, he happily ate a large portion of fried meat prepared by his mother and persisted in cultivating his secret method to pass the long night.
After waking up early in the morning, he washed up and ate breakfast. When he saw that it was almost time, he hesitated for a few seconds and dialed Trish's number. Hesitating, he said, "Good morning, Trish. A-Have you returned to New York now?"
"Good morning, Lisheng. I'm in New York and I just came back yesterday." Trish's slightly unnatural voice resonated from the phone.
The girl's unnaturalness infected Zhang Lisheng, who already felt that it was very unreliable to use his girlfriend's best sister as a substitute for his girlfriend, making him feel even more uncomfortable. After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Did Tina tell you about that matter?"
"Huh?" Trish, who had a hint of anticipation in her heart, did not understand what Zhang Lisheng meant by 'that matter'.
"She's accompanying me to attend Senator Houg's manor banquet today."
"Oh, of course! Tina has been bothering me like a fly for a long time yesterday because of this matter and even personally escorted me to the plane!" The girl said in a panic.
"Then I'll pick you up later. It'll be about 40 minutes later."
"Alright, Lisheng! I'll wait for you! See you later!"
"Goodbye, Trish." Zhang Lisheng hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. He went upstairs and changed into a fitted light gray suit. "Mom, what do you think of me?"
"Very good son. Why are you suddenly dressed so formally?" Lili, who was busy washing the dishes in the kitchen, turned her head and asked in surprise.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. As one of the political funders, I'm going to attend the manor banquet of the newly elected Senator Houg in New York today to encourage this guy and see if he can go further and be elected as the next president." Zhang Lisheng joked.
"Looks like the seeds you planted are starting to sprout and blossom. I hope your wishes come true, son." Lili, who already knew that her son was trying to interfere in the political election, gave her blessings without any surprise.
Michelle, who was washing the dishes, pouted and said, "What an ugly deal between money and politics."
"No, Michelle. Houg and I can indeed be regarded as a transaction of money and politics, but it's not ugly because it's allowed by law and carried out openly." Zhang Lisheng smiled at his sister whose temper was getting weirder. He waved and strode out of the house.
The black extended Maybach 62 limousine that the LS Group added for the chairman of the board of directors had long been waiting by the roadside.
Upon seeing Zhang Lisheng going out, the driver, who was short and looked to be in his fifties wearing a green uniform and a round hat, immediately got off the car attentively and opened the door of the backseat. The wrinkles on his forehead had become very dense.
Tina had just helped Zhang Lisheng change this slightly older driver. Compared to the previous young driver, even though he was slightly less energetic and looked a lot worse, his personality was undoubtedly more peaceful and he had more service spirit. Not only that, his driving skills and emergency handling experience in case of an accident were also richer. Usually, such a driver would be favored by those influential people who were steady and had a strong background.
"Thank you, Locke. Let's go to the Penthouse Apartments in the Upper West Side first." Zhang Lisheng thanked him and entered the car.
The Penthouse Apartments was the address of Trish's house. It could be considered as one of the best apartment buildings in the Upper West Side of New York.
The apartment building of this grade was called an apartment, but in fact, there was only one unit on each floor. The area was very spacious, usually more than hundreds of square meters. It could already be considered as the top residence in the Big Apple.
However, just like the elite area of the Upper West Side that had become slightly old, these apartment buildings that had a history that could be counted in centuries looked inconspicuous from the outside. Only from the calm and decent speech and behavior of the male residents and the graceful and luxurious attire of the female residents, one could appreciate the extraordinariness of it.
After driving smoothly as if it was gliding on the water for more than 30 minutes, the Maybach 62 slowly stopped in front of a slightly mottled British-style building.
Immediately, a middle-aged apartment guard who was dressed like a hotel doorman opened the door of the back seat before the driver.
By the time Zhang Lisheng got out of the car, the guard was stunned imperceptibly when he saw his Asian appearance and young appearance. He asked politely, "Good afternoon, sir. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Excuse me, is this the Penthouse Apartments?" Zhang Lisheng, who had never been to Trish's house before, asked politely.
The instant his words left his mouth, he saw the door of the apartment being opened by the guard inside. A young girl wearing a pure white low-cut evening dress, wearing only a diamond necklace that was as thin as silk but would emit a dazzling brilliance when it passed through the light, walked down a few old stone steps gracefully and came to his side.
"This is the Penthouse Apartments, sir," the apartment guard answered Zhang Lisheng and bowed to the girl beside him. The apartment guard replied to Zhang Lisheng and bowed to the girl by the side before praising, "Miss Trish, you're really beautiful today." He had to say the same words several times a day, but it was rare for him to be as sincere as he was now.
"Thank you, Manhard," Trish smiled at the guard and raised her wrist to Zhang Lisheng. "Good afternoon, Lisheng."
When the young man saw Trish who was completely different from usual, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly kissed the back of the girl's hand according to etiquette and said without any creativity, "Good afternoon, Trish. You're so beautiful today."
"Thank you." After waiting quietly for a while, Zhang Lisheng snapped back to his senses and quickly ran over to open the door for the girl.
"Thank you." Trish thanked him again and got into the car. Only then did the young man breathe a sigh of relief. He went back and got into the car from the other door of the back seat.
The car started, and like the other luxury cars on this avenue, it carried the top couple of New York Vanity Fair's red man and green woman to the suburbs.
Zhang Lisheng stared out of the window uncomfortably, looking at the scenery outside the window that had changed from ancient elegance to fashion avantgarde. Without warning, he said, "Trish, the place where you live is just too dull. It's just like the old castle in the movies.
No wonder I heard those tech upstarts don't want to live in New York. "
"Isn't Tina's family even worse? At the very least, I don't have a British butler who has been serving for generations like Mr. Leroy," the girl argued stiffly.
"That's true." Zhang Lisheng nodded and became silent.
Since then, the two of them never said a word to each other again until the car drove out of New York City and turned into a side road to enter a scenic resort manor.
In Western society, the boundary between public and private was very obvious. No matter how long two people got along in the office, if there were no private gatherings, it could only be said that they had a tacit understanding in their work. It was difficult to say that there was a friendship between them.
In the same way, even if they had not known each other for a long time, if the few opportunities they had to meet were all on private occasions, it could also be said that they had a close personal relationship. This was common social common sense. For this reason, generally, receiving an invitation to a 'manor banquet' meant that the other party intended to develop a personal friendship with you.
This was how Houg treated Zhang Lisheng. In order to show his sincerity, after receiving the notice from the doorman, he even deliberately brought his wife to the front of the holiday cabin and pretended to welcome the guest's visit.
Under the sun, the new senator appeared tall and had a big face. The fitted suit could not wrap his strong physique, making people feel energetic and have a masculine temperament.
In the back seat of the car, when Trish saw the senator holding the arm of a charming and beautiful lady waiting in front of the cabin with a smile, she suddenly said, "Lisheng, looks like this Senator Houg attaches great importance to your visit. Not only did he personally welcome you, but he even specially arranged a short private meeting to have a private exchange with you."
"How do you know?"
"There's not even a cupcake on the lawn outside these cabins, so how could it possibly be a banquet venue? The doorman directed us to come here, so of course, it's the master who arranged it. Of course, the master wants to have a private exchange with you before the banquet.
In a while, his wife will definitely send me away. Remember, don't make any careless promises to these politicians, "Trish whispered quickly. The instant her words left her mouth, the door on Zhang Lisheng's side was already opened by the driver.
"There are so many f * cking tricks inside. Now, I think that Tina is right to ask you to accompany me." Zhang Lisheng walked out of the door and smiled politely at the senator and his wife who were not far away. Bypassing the back of the car, he opened the door for Trish.
"So don't put on a straight face and look like you're unwilling.
Do you think that you've entered deep into the upper class of the US after accompanying Tina, Sheila, and me to a few small parties? You're still far from that, newbie! " Trish walked out of the car elegantly and held Zhang Lisheng's arm. Muttering in a low voice, she still had a charming smile on her face.
