The Godfather 教父 Chapter 27

Michael Corleone arrived late in the evening and, by his own order, was not met at the airport.

His hair was razor cut and arranged as carefully as a movie star's, his face glowed with perfect barbering and his hands were manicured. He was an altogether different man than the one who had been shipped out of New York four years before., , , Michael smiled at his brother. "You're looking pretty good too. Kay would have come out this time, but she's carrying another kid and she has the baby to look after. Besides this is business, Freddie, I have to fly back tomorrow night or the morning after.", , "You have to eat something first," Freddie said. "We've got a great chef in the hotel, you'll get the best food you ever ate. Go take your shower and change and everything will be set up right here. I have all the people you want to see lined up, they'll be waiting around for when you're ready, I just have to call them.", ,The big guy standing at his side may be his bodyguard.站在他身旁的那个大个子可能是他的保镖。,He despised people who were lavish with their praises.他看不起那些阿谀奉承的人 。
