Chapter 670: Chapter 670

Zhuang Haoran was at a loss for words, forgiving him for being a very traditional Chinese man who didn’t understand the ideas of foreigners.

Luca wasn’t a genuine Brazilian; he was Jewish, and also held dual citizenship with the United States.

Someone like Luca certainly wasn’t lacking in money and operated in the upper circles, just like Zhuang Haoran. However, he fell in love with the coffee plantations here in Brazil, and after purchasing this manor, became its owner. He then dressed himself in the farmer’s garb—denim shirt, jeans, rain boots—making it hard to see him as a refined gentleman.

Besides his handsome cowboy face and a pair of diamond-like blue eyes carrying his ancestors’ lineage, the noble blood ran deep in his veins.

In reality, Luca could never truly leave the upper circles. Besides, the pure bean coffee business they were in was something only the affluent could afford.

Therefore, Luca told Zhuang Haoran, "Here in Rio de Janeiro, there will be an excellent party the day after tomorrow evening. It’s organized by the local coffee association. You could try inviting that woman you like to attend; maybe she’ll start to like you because of coffee."

Zhuang Haoran couldn’t help it; his eyes seemed to light up.

When it came to their coffee business collaboration, Luca was responsible for growing the coffee beans, while detecting good or bad coffee required a group with a particular talent, which Zhuang Haoran just so happened to have.

Previously, the two had taken their manor’s coffee beans, with Zhuang Haoran competing, to the annual world coffee competition, and they had won the championship. Consequently, their manor shot to fame, and sales surged to the point there was more demand than supply.

Due to Luca’s suggestion, Zhuang Haoran began to seriously consider.

She and he, until now, seemed to have hardly understood each other. He understood her, could see her charm, but she only knew he was wealthy, without realizing where his charm lay.

Zhuang Haoran felt that it was possible to invite her to attend.

No matter what her final choice would be, he didn’t want to lose her good impression of him and wished she would see him in a different light.

After a busy evening, Gu Nuan went to the restroom to wash her face, she discovered her mobile phone vibrating in her pocket.

She took it out and saw that she had received a message. The rıghtful source is 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⚑𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥

Stepping out and returning to the living room where everyone was discussing, Gu Nuan asked Mrs. Zhao and the others, "I heard that the coffee association here is going to hold a party the day after tomorrow evening, is that true?"

When it came to this, the Zhao family indeed didn’t have any information.

Fearing that a party hosted by the local coffee association, from which the Zhao family might be excluded, could carry significant meaning, Zhao father hurried to call a local friend to inquire.

Mrs. Zhao then asked Gu Nuan, "How did you come to know about this?"

"I have a friend; he’s in the coffee business and seems to be in the wine business too. His surname is Zhuang; do you happen to know him, madam?" said Gu Nuan.

Speaking of colleagues in the wine industry, the Zhao family, who had been in the circle for nearly a hundred years, was bound to know them. They could count them on their fingers.

Without much thought, Mrs. Zhao recalled a certain family and said, "In the industry, the levels of those in the wine business vary immensely. Some people, actually, don’t do it on a large scale but only focus on their niche, yet they’ve achieved results that demand respect."

Gu Nuan strained to catch each piece of information Mrs. Zhao shared.

"There is a man with the surname Zhuang, the second heir of the Zhuang family. He’s quite an odd one; perhaps because as a second son he wasn’t in line to inherit the family business, he didn’t succeed it. Instead, he took the start-up capital from his family and struck out on his own. However, he truly has skills, choosing to focus on a small yet refined approach. In the circle, this second heir of the Zhuang family is quite well-known indeed."
