Chapter 400 - 185: You Can Also Play the Violin?
With a look of utmost respect on the restaurant manager’s face, Gu Heng and Ouyang Nana walked out of the restaurant.
"Mr. Gu, we look forward to your next visit."
Faced with the restaurant manager’s words, Gu Heng just gave a faint smile, without any particular reaction.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Nana was still immersed in the staggering bill totaling 107,500 Euros...
He had anticipated an expensive meal, but he hadn’t expected it to be that pricey...
Although she had a certain fame in the entertainment industry, she hadn’t acted in many TV dramas, so her salary wasn’t as outrageously high as Shuang’s. Even during her peak years, the highest compensation didn’t exceed 30 million RMB. After splitting with the company and paying taxes, it was a lot if she could keep 10 million RMB, and yet she was criticized for having an exorbitant salary...
Converting 107,500 Euros to RMB would be about 800,000 or more.
In other words, did the most she ever earned from acting, in Gu Heng’s eyes, only suffice for a bit more than ten meals?
The more she thought about it, the quieter Ouyang Nana became...
It had been only a few hours in Gu Heng’s company, but she had truly experienced the disparities of the world...
As a star with an annual income of tens of millions, she couldn’t even begin to imagine what Gu Heng’s life was like. Ouyang Nana didn’t dare to think if she were just an office worker with a monthly salary of a few thousand, whether the intense sense of disparity would drive her to jump off a building...
However, after this brief interaction, the image of Gu Heng in Ouyang Nana’s mind had become very concrete...
Gu Heng, noticing the changing expressions in Ouyang Nana’s eyes, knew that his repeated displays of wealth had indeed been effective...
But when it came to wooing a girl, it wasn’t all about showing off. Fundamental emotional connection was still necessary. With this in mind, Gu Heng’s voice rose up again, filled with gentleness, "It’s only a little past four now, and the auction doesn’t start for another two hours. How about we take a stroll around Geneva in the meantime?"
After all, Ouyang Nana was just an ordinary post-millennial girl. At the same age, an average girl would be in college. Even if she had been in entertainment for a long time and was more pragmatic than most, she’d still be at an age where she dreamed of love.
And Gu Heng?
Young and wealthy.
Gentle and considerate.
Apart from being just passably handsome, he was the quintessential male lead straight out of a novel—in what ways could any girl refuse?
With Gu Heng’s calculated moves versus her unsuspecting ones, not to exaggerate, he had already surpassed most young men her age in her heart after spending a few tens of millions of RMB.
"Sure!"
"I’m not very familiar with Europe, and I don’t know what’s fun in Geneva. Could you suggest something?"
After hearing this, Ouyang Nana thought for a moment before speaking slowly, "Geneva is quite small, especially compared to famous European cities like Paris, Rome, and London. There aren’t as many tourist spots.
Since we just left the Patek Philippe Salon not too long ago, we can probably skip the Patek Philippe Museum.
As for the Palais des Nations, well, I’ve been there once and it wasn’t very interesting—just a bunch of political history, mostly European, enough to put you to sleep.
How about we visit St. Peter’s Cathedral in Geneva? While it can’t really be compared to St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican, it’s still quite nice as a way to pass the travel time.
It’s been over a decade since my last visit. I don’t know what it’s like now. Shall we go take a look?"
After saying this, she turned her inquiring gaze towards Gu Heng.
And Gu Heng’s response did not disappoint Ouyang Nana.
"Okay, as you wish."
With Gu Heng’s reply, Ouyang Nana’s slightly chubby cheeks turned a shade of red as she lowered her head...
Gu Heng was surprised at her bashful appearance...
What had he done this time to make her feel shy for no reason?
Unable to figure it out, Gu Heng didn’t think too much about it and took Ouyang Nana to the Maybach they arrived in...
What Gu Heng couldn’t imagine was that the reason for Ouyang Nana’s shyness was his accepting words, "as you wish"...
In Ouyang Nana’s eyes, Gu Heng held a high status, and in the short time they’d been together, he had always been a very decisive person, whatever he did was unquestionable...
But when it came to deciding where to go, he not only sought her opinion but was also willing to let her make decisions for him...
That was her impression of Gu Heng placing importance on her...
That’s just how women can be, sometimes you don’t need to try too hard. Once a man gains her favor, she will consciously idealize his image and even fool herself, until their relationship is confirmed... @@novelbin@@

When the two arrived at St. Peter’s Cathedral, Gu Heng felt nothing as he looked at the classical building before him.
The reason was simple; he had no faith, not in Taoism, Buddhism, or any of the foreign religions. Gu Heng was completely uninterested.

But Ouyang Nana was different; ever since she arrived at St. Peter’s Cathedral, her entire demeanor changed, and her eyes even had a hint of devotion...
Gu Heng watched her and couldn’t help but ask, "Are you Catholic?"
But Ouyang Nana shook her head: "Like my family, I belong to Christianity."
"So why are you being so solemn?"
Ouyang Nana was silent for a moment before stating matter-of-factly, "Though I’m not Catholic, I respect all faiths. It’s the same whether I’m at a cathedral, temple, or Taoist shrine."
What do you think?
