bi said this sentence very naturally and calmly, as if he was telling a fact.
Zhang Bin and Zhou Jingyu looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
After all, Johnson is also the head of investment of the Bank of Montreal in the United States.
This is a powerful party.
Since Bi can sit here, and it seems that the other party's parents and Mr.
Harlan should have a good relationship.
In this case, there are only two possibilities for bi to not give face to the other party.
First, bi is just a child and can't speak with his brains.
Second, his father is very awesome, so awesome that he can completely ignore Johnson.
Johnson held a fork in one hand and a knife in the other.
He took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Hey, kid, do you know that your words are a little hurtful?"
Bi ate calmly and said, "I'm sorry, but what I told is the truth.
I didn't mean to look down on you."
"Well, he's still a kid," Mr.
Harlan said from the sidelines, not wanting his guests to start a fight at the table.
"Well, he's still a child."
Johnson smiled at Zhang Bin and Zhou Jingyu, "Harlan's steak is good.
I suggest you dip it in the sauce to make it taste better."
After dinner in the evening, Johnson went to swim in the swimming pool behind, while Zhang Bin hung out with Mr.
Harlan.
Jane followed Zhou Jingyu, and Bi followed Jane.
Zhang Bin said something in Zhou Jingyu's ear, and Zhou Jingyu squatted down and started playing with Jane.
Bi stood nearby with an envious look on his face, watching this scene.
"Do you want to play together?"
Zhou Jingyu looked at the other party and invited with a smile.
Zhou Jingyu's English was good, but Bi seemed stunned for a moment.
"Can I?"
Bi pointed at himself with some hesitation.
"Of course, I don't have fun alone.
Would you like to play with me and Jane?"
Zhou Jingyu said with a smile.
"Of course", bi nodded excitedly.
So, the next two people took Jane and walked towards the pasture behind.
The manor was brightly lit at night, and a large area of the pasture could be seen.
With two people and one dog, they played flying saucer and football on the pasture, and laughter could be heard from time to time.
On the balcony of the room on the second floor, Johnson, who had just finished swimming and taking a shower, looked at the few people having fun and shook his head.
"I must have had too much red wine at night, this is just a hallucination."
In the manor, Zhang Bin and Mr.
Harlan were talking about bi.
"He has albinism, a genetic disease," Mr.
Harlan said.
"Then his parents" "His parents were lucky, but they left bad luck to their children."
"Can I ask what his parents do for a living?"
Zhang Bin asked.
"Do you know U.S.

Steel?
His parents are both board members," Harlan said.
"They won't be here until tomorrow afternoon, and you can get to know each other then."
Early the next morning, Zhang Bin discovered that Zhou Jingyu was not around.
After washing up, he went downstairs and found that Zhou Jingyu had already become involved with Bi and was teasing Jane.
"Hi", Zhang Bin said hello to bi, hoping to get acquainted.
Of course, he meant to build a good relationship.
Bi glanced at Zhou Jingyu, hesitated, and said hello.
"Bi, your parents won't cry when they come over this afternoon," Johnson also came downstairs and said with a smile.
"I will definitely let my father kick your ass."
Bi made a contemptuous gesture, which was so arrogant.
After breakfast, Johnson went out to meet the guests.
His mission was actually to attract customers.
This wine event in Napa Valley could attract many rich people.
This was a bad start for him to expand his business in the United States. ah.
Bank of Montreal's business in the United States is not going very smoothly, especially with the signs of the subprime mortgage crisis that have now emerged.
Many wealthy people have chosen to tighten their pockets and retain cash, which makes his business even more difficult to run.
Harlan's introduction was a bit exaggerated.
In fact, Bank of Montreal only has four branches in the United States.
He is only the person in charge of the New York branch.
However, because his business has been good this year, Canada intends to put him in charge of the entire U.S. business.
So in order to get himself into that position as soon as possible, Johnson became extremely busy.
Zhang Bin and the others were led into the vineyard by Mr.
Harlan.
Grapes are grown here with great care and attention, as this represents one year's harvest and the quality of the next year's wine.
For a famous winery, the quality of the grapes means everything.
At this time, the grapes have begun to bear fruit in clusters, which looks very pleasing.
But most of them are not suitable for winemaking yet, and this year’s red wine is made from last year’s grapes.
Harlan walked in the vineyard with great satisfaction and said with a smile: "The weather is good this year.
I think the quality of the grapes will be very good."
After walking a few steps, Harlan suddenly knelt down, cut off a bunch of grapes, and handed them to Zhang Bin and the others.
"Taste it," Harlan said with a smile.
The grapes here are all green and seem to be unripe, but according to Mr.
Harlan, they are definitely edible.
Zhang Bin took it over, twisted one and put it in his mouth.
"Oh", Zhang Bin took a bite, and his whole face suddenly wrinkled.
Zhou Jingyu felt that Zhang Bin was too exaggerated.
She took one and put it into her mouth in disbelief.
The next moment her expression was even more exaggerated than Zhang Bin's.
Harlan laughed when he saw their reactions, "That's right."
"How could it be so sour?"
Zhang Bin looked at Harlan with some confusion.
Are all wines made with grapes like this?
"In fact, making wine requires grapes like this.
They should not be too sweet and have a sour taste.

The grapes produced in this way are the best," Harlan said with a smile.
"Then when do you usually brew wine?"
Zhang Bin asked.
"This depends on the ripeness of the grapes.
If it is early, it will be around the end of August and September, and if it is later, it will be in October.
If it is aged in the cellar, it can be enjoyed at this time next year," Harlan said with a smile.
After visiting the vineyard, Zhang Bin and Zhou Jingyu went on horseback again, this time Bi was with them.
Jane ran behind the horse.
Tired of playing, everyone returned to the manor, only to see Mr.
Harlan chatting enthusiastically with a couple at the door. bi suddenly ran over, calling mom and dad.
Zhang Bin knew that the couple in front of him should be the husband and wife directors of U.S.
Steel that Harlan mentioned, Bill Hawks and his wife Anna Hawks.
"Bi, tell dad, have you caused any trouble for Grandpa Harlan?"
Hawks knelt down and looked at his son and said.
"Of course not, and Jane and I have become good friends," Bi said proudly.
"Yeah, I think that's going to be the happiest thing I've heard today," Hawks said with a smile.
After talking to his son, Hawks and his wife walked towards Zhang Bin and Zhou Jingyu.
"Thank you.
I heard Harlan say that you have given my son a lot of help.
I am very grateful."
Hawks and Zhang Bin hugged and shook hands.
"bi is very cute, we think he is a good child," Zhang Bin said sincerely.
"I'm very happy to hear other people praise my son so much.
It makes me feel very accomplished," Hawks said with a laugh, looking really happy.
Anna also pulled Zhou Jingyu to talk next to her.
Her son liked Zhou Jingyu very much and loved the whole house.
She also hoped that she and the beautiful oriental girl in front of her could have a common topic.
The group of people chatted for a while and then walked into the manor.
"Dad, Johnson said this in the morning.
He said that you are no match for him.
This time I am here to show you how powerful you are."
Bi pulled Hawks and said.
"Really?
Well, I will definitely make him beg for mercy," Hawks said unceremoniously
