【Decisive Battle in the Illusion of Spiritualism】United States【94】
"What is he doing in the United States? Is he a rich man?"
"I heard that his business in the United States is very big and successful."
"Then let him leave the inheritance directly in my card."
"Be more serious!" Lin Wanfen was a little angry, but for a moment she felt that her anger was inappropriate, so she softened her words and said, "Just treat me as someone who respects me."
Lu Tao smiled: "Mom, you are so strong that you look like the class beauty of 20 years ago. How can I disrespect you? If you say you want to meet, just meet. You two can catch up on old times and I can just eat like crazy beside you."
Order more food. If he wants to look at me, he will sneak a glance at me from the side. After he looks at my left face, I will show my right face after a while. After looking at the front half, I will go to the toilet again.
Tell him to look at my back. I won't say anything anyway, okay? Is there anything else? If nothing happens, I'm leaving. I have an interview with a real estate company today!"
"Xu Zhisen returned to Beijing just to do real estate."
"He ran back because the Chinese were stupid, right?"
"I heard he did it very formally--"
"Don't believe him. What's legal? Last night, a few of our friends ate hot pot at a small shop in Dongzhimen. They said they were legal. When they checked out, they didn't even have an invoice. They collected our money here, but then
Is it legal to evade state taxes?"
"Lu Tao!" Lin Wanfen suddenly raised her voice by two octaves this time.
Lu Tao was stunned.
Tears welled up from Lin Wanfen's eyes.
"Mom." Lu Tao was a little surprised.
"Mom, this isn't just for you!" Lin Wanfen said in a tearful voice.
"Mom, please stop crying. I'll go, I'll go. I'll go whenever you tell me. Don't I have a phone number there? Just call me and tell me, okay?"
"He will arrive in the evening and wants you to pick him up."
"I'm not going," Lu Tao just finished saying, but felt it was inappropriate and added, "Are you going?"
"He didn't call me, maybe he thought it was inconvenient for me."
"Then what's the point of me going?"
"I guess he really wants to see you as soon as possible."
"Ignore this selfish person. He can see whoever he wants. Who does he think he is?" Lu Tao said.
"However, he has no relatives in China. If no one picks him up after getting off the plane, he will feel empty."
"Why didn't he feel empty at all when he left?"
"Anyway, you're fine. Why don't you go there?"
"I don't want to go." Lu Tao emphasized.
"Forget it, let's make another appointment."
"Okay, then I'm leaving."
"Don't tell Lu Yaxun about this," Lin Wanfen warned worriedly.
"I know, I know, do you think I have anything to say to him? He looks like he's going to teach me a lesson when he opens his mouth, so I won't pay attention to him. If I didn't respect your choice, I would really want to go to a dating agency to do it for you -"
"You should leave quickly. You are talking nonsense again. I can only listen to the first three sentences of your words."
"Okay, then I will say a few words from now on. I'm leaving. Mom, you can drink a few more sips of the tea and enjoy the environment."
"Be careful on the road."
Lu Tao said "Ah" and he was already a few steps away.
"Also, your new girlfriend, please bring it home for me to see when you have time -"
After Lu Tao left, Lin Wanfen poured herself a cup of tea and said everything that needed to be said. Her heart was a little ups and downs, and she couldn't tell whether it was for her own future or for Lu Tao's.
Charlene's attitude
After leaving the teahouse and not walking far, Lu Tao saw Charlene sitting on a step reading a book. She was looking very intently, as if the world had nothing to do with her. It was really beautiful like that.
Lu Tao walked over gently and sat next to Xia Lin.
Charlene tilted her head and the two looked at each other.
Lu Tao said: "You look very good when you read."
Charlene smiled: "You look very silly when you peek at me."
"I know - I plan to keep peeking at you from now on."
"Go away, stay away!" Charlene hit Lu Tao with a book, which was "Memories of Girlhood" written by French Simone Beauvoir.
Lu Tao sighed: "Where are we going?"
"If you insist on treating me to ice cream and beg me endlessly, I will go with you." Charlene said with a half-smile.
"I beg you."
"Okay then -" Charlene's eyes turned into slits with laughter.
"If another man begs you, don't say that!"
"Of course I won't agree so readily."
Lu Tao was anxious: "You can't agree at all!"
Charlene's face was filled with joy this time, and she said in a long voice: "Okay then -"
In the ice cream shop, Charlene had a whim and insisted on feeding Lu Tao a mouthful of ice cream with a small spoon. Lu Tao dodged around and finally had to eat.
