Chapter 1868: Chapter 688: The True Noble Lady

Zhang Jingdong even felt that Genevieve would absolutely be more than enough to be an Empress in medieval Europe.

Sophia, although she saw Genevieve was prettier than Fiona, felt that Genevieve was after all the Vineyard Master’s wife, so she was very relieved.

But when she saw Zhang Jingdong unexpectedly reach out his hand towards Genevieve, her heart instantly tightened.

Yet she was in no position to stop him, so she thought she’d wait until they returned to the hotel to settle accounts with Zhang Jingdong.

Zhang Jingdong casually said, "Madam, hello, I am the chairman of Huaxia East Prosperity Group, my name is Zhang Jingdong."

Genevieve was slightly taken aback, then slowly extended her hand to lightly shake Zhang Jingdong’s.

"Hello, welcome to our vineyard for a visit."

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully getting a response from the target person and having physical contact with the target person, reward of 100,000 yuan!"

After a round of pleasantries, Genevieve led them into the vineyard.

While going down a staircase, Genevieve, perhaps accidentally or maybe because she’s been distracted by recent events, suddenly stepped off balance and seemed about to fall to the ground.

Walking beside her, Zhang Jingdong, with quick reflexes, grabbed her slender waist and pulled her up.

Perhaps due to the urgency of the situation, Zhang Jingdong might have exerted a little too much strength in his eagerness to help.

Genevieve couldn’t control her body and directly leaned into Zhang Jingdong’s embrace.

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing an embrace with the target person, reward of 150,000 yuan!"

Sophia and He Jieyu, alarmed, both rolled their eyes.

At this time, Zhang Jingdong said, "Madam, be careful!"

Genevieve regained her composure but was suddenly blushing deeply.

She hurriedly stepped back a few paces and then said, "Mr. Zhang, I’m sorry... I... startled you."

Zhang Jingdong shrugged, "No problem, as long as you’re okay!"

"...Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

Genevieve and Zhang Jingdong held eye contact for a few seconds, then said, "Shall we continue the tour?"

"Alright."

Genevieve slightly bowed, then turned around and continued to walk ahead while introducing, "Our castle here was built during Napoleon’s era..."

Zhang Jingdong listened intently to her introduction, but his gaze occasionally couldn’t help but drift to her waist.

Admittedly, the figure of this beautiful woman was not only pleasingly curvy, but the feel was also quite good.

At that moment, he suddenly felt that Cao Cao was truly a top-notch visionary, his judgement was indeed sharp!

Those women in their twenties may be tender, but they haven’t really been through any trials nor gained much social experience.

Meanwhile, those ladies, when they become the wives of elite men, have already been through rigorous selection, especially since the counterpart is a top-tier man like the Vineyard Master of the Eight Great Vineyards, so her identity itself already speaks to many of her advantages.

The key point is, their vineyard is now facing significant problems, even to the point of considering selling the estate.

So, perhaps she might be like the Empress in "Let the Bullets Fly," who only wanted to be the Empress, not caring about who the Emperor was.

Moreover, after he saved her just now, the way she looked at him was rather special.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingdong promptly said, "Madam, I’ve heard your vineyard is seeking a sale currently, is that true?"

Genevieve hesitated for a moment, then nodded somewhat sadly, "...Yes."

Seeing her admit, Zhang Jingdong said, "I’m currently looking to purchase a large vineyard, so I wanted to ask, roughly how much do you want to sell this vineyard for?"

Genevieve, upon hearing this, deeply gazed at Zhang Jingdong, seeing he wasn’t joking, paused and said, "This... I’m not entirely sure, because the final price would certainly be decided by my husband."

"And... we’re basically seeking European buyers for purchase, so..."

Zhang Jingdong interrupted, "But your ultimate goal is still to sell for as much money as possible, so as long as I offer more than anyone else, I still have a chance, correct?"

Genevieve sensed the strong confidence in Zhang Jingdong’s words.

For some reason, she suddenly had a premonition that this young Eastern man in front of her might not be bluffing, and he might really become the new owner of the vineyard.

Her originally cool face instantly softened considerably, "What you said makes a lot of sense... But you may need to spend a lot of money at that time."

Zhang Jingdong said meaningfully, "I’ve always had a habit that if there’s something I like, no matter how much it costs, I must obtain it."

"Because, in my view, money is actually the least useful thing in this world, it only shows its slight usefulness when it helps me achieve my goals."

Genevieve contemplated Zhang Jingdong’s words seriously, and a peculiar gleam gradually surfaced in her eyes, "...You’re a very special person."

They continued the tour for another half an hour before Zhang Jingdong, with Sophia and the others, left the vineyard and returned to the hotel.

As soon as they got back to the hotel room, Sophia said indignantly, "Hmph, have you fallen for that vineyard master’s wife? You were completely mesmerized when you looked at her just now!"

Zhang Jingdong shrugged, "You’re overthinking it. I’m doing this to buy the vineyard, you know they’re hesitating now, so I have to negotiate properly, don’t I?"

"We in Huaxia have a saying, ’To blow wind on the pillow,’ sometimes a wife’s words can be worth more than others’ thousands, so once I have a good talk with her, maybe the vineyard will be sold to me!"

Sophia, seeing Zhang Jingdong’s serious face, then said, "...Okay, I believe you, but you made a mistake earlier, I must punish you properly, Jieyu, help me together!"

Upon hearing this, He Jieyu was instantly a bit dumbfounded, "Wha... what? Together?"
