Chapter 129: A Journey to Athens (Part II)

……

"Olivia, Bruce is a guest in our house!"

Dad's displeasure, as well as the obstruction of his best friends, made Ovilia Eisley swallow the rest of the words into his stomach. Of course, she didn't have any bad intentions towards Guo Shouyun, she just wanted to test his reality.

After all, she is also very curious, what kind of person is the guy who can suppress many handsome gentlemen with excellent family affairs and good conditions from the Royal College of Art and the surrounding universities, and win the heart of Molly Bevan? !

"Bruce, what do you do?" said Rick Easley, changing the subject.

"I'm a writer and I also do some business investments!"

After a quick deliberation in his heart, Guo Shouyun replied.

"Writer?" continued Rick Easley with interest, "can you tell us about your work?

"Of course!" Guo Shouyun nodded, "Pirates of the Caribbean, "National Treasure", "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", "Fast and Furious" ......!"

"Wait, you wrote Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?" Olivia interrupted.

"Hmm!"

Guo Shouyun nodded.

Olivia examined him in surprise and suspicion, then turned her gaze to her friend who was sitting on the side, her eyes full of inquiry.

"Bruce's pen name is Dongren, and in addition to "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the "Da Vinci Code" you like to watch is also his work!" Molly Bevan said with a slight chin in her voice.

She has publicly admitted the relationship between the two boyfriends and girlfriends, and naturally regards the interests of the two as one, so her boyfriend's admirable achievements also make her feel honored.

"I really can't see it, you're still such a powerful guy!" Olivia Easley's surprised eyes fell on Guo Shouyun again.

"Sorry to interrupt. From what you just talked about, Bruce's work should be very popular. But why haven't I seen it in Greece?" wondered Rick Easley.

His words fully reflect the difference between the Eastern and Western modes of communication, and in the East, such face-damaging words are rarely said so directly.

"Mr. Easley, this is not surprising. The company in charge of my publishing, Thorn Bird, has not yet opened up the Greek publishing market!" Guo Shouyun replied.

After more than half a year of development, thanks to Guo Shouyun's ultra-high income of more than a dozen books in a row, the development speed of Thorn Bird Company can be described as super fast.

However, in the end, there is a lack of accumulation, so the current Thorn Bird Publishing Company has only just completed the layout of major English-speaking countries such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and New Zealand, and the European continent only involves Germany, France and the Netherlands for the time being. The economy is only a second-rate country in Europe, but Greece, which has a perfect publishing law, may not have Guo Shouyun's listing until next year.

"I see, but why not find a well-known publishing company at the time? Penguin Random or Pearson are both very good choices!" Rick Easley wondered.

Originally, Guo Shouyun didn't want to say anything, but since the other party asked here, he no longer hid it.

"I am the majority shareholder of Thorn Bird Publishing!"

Rick Easley was stunned.

"Bruce, it seems that you are not only a brilliant writer, but also a shrewd businessman!"

Guo Shouyun smiled, and the modesty in his bones came out again.

"I'm just starting to get into the business world and I'm still learning. ”

"Guys, your drinks are ready!"

Just then, Mrs. Easley came over with a tray.

"Bruce, your coffee!"

"Thank you!"

"Little Molly, your juice!"

"Thank you, Mrs. Easley!"

"You're always so polite. Didn't I tell you, it's like being at home here!" Mrs. Easley said with affection in her tone.

"Mom, I'm jealous of you again. Am I your daughter, or is Molly your daughter!" Olivia said with a feigned dissatisfaction.

"You're my daughter, of course, but I like Molly better!" said Mrs. Easley as she placed the lemon juice on the table in front of Olivia.

"Molly, I regret bringing you to my house in the first place. Now you've robbed my mom of her!"

"Then I'll go. Anyway, Bruce has already booked a hotel!" Molly Bevin retorted with a smile.

"That's not going to work. As your best college classmate and best friend, I can't let you be deceived by other bad guys! If you want to be with you, you have to pass the test of my best friend first!"

Noticing Olivia's provocative eyes looking at him, Guo Shouyun understood that on his trip to Greece, I am afraid that there will be an extra bulb bigger than Al Bevan in the middle.

"By the way, Al Bevin!"

Thinking of this, Guo Shouyun's eyes lit up, and he looked at Olivia next to him and had an idea.

"In other words, a woman like Olivia should still have an appetite for Al Bevan. ”

"What do you think of me for? I'm not Molly, I'm not going to fall for you. ”

After noticing Guo Shouyun's eyes, Olivia immediately glared fiercely.

At this time, Guo Shouyun really wanted to say: 'You are too worried, a tigress like you is not my cup of tea'. However, considering that this was a guest at someone's house, and there were other people's parents next to him, he was not too out of line, and shook his head, "It's nothing!

The words fell, not giving the other party a chance to refute, Guo Shouyun decisively changed the topic.

"Mr. Easley, do you like football too?"

Guo Shouyun pointed to the club family portrait poster posted on the right wall of the living room. Although it is not clear who is on it because of the distance, there is no doubt that the dress must be a football team. And there are quite a few of these posters.

"My dad is the owner of the Olympiacos team!"

Olivia, who was suffocated by Guo Shouyun, immediately replied proudly.

Looking at his surprised expression, Rick Easley smiled and nodded.

"It's a surprise. Olympiacos is a brilliant team!"

That being said, Guo Shouyun doesn't know much about Olympiacos. The reason why I know is thanks to the fact that when I was betting on the Champions Cup this year, I saw the name of Olympiacos in it. Although it did not make it to the round of 16, the teams that can play in the main round of the Champions Cup are definitely the best in their respective leagues!

"Thank you...... Three days later, there is a derby between Olympiacos and Panathinaikos, and if you are interested, you can come and watch it live. ”

"Of course I'm interested!" Guo Shouyun said immediately.

Not only interested, but so interested.

"If you really doze off, you came to deliver a pillow, and it was easier to convince Al Bevan. ”

As for whether Olivia has a boyfriend, that's not in his consideration. All he was thinking about now was how to turn off the light bulb and happily enjoy the rare two-person world with Molly Bevan.

"Then I'll ask Olivia to give you the tickets!" said Rick Easley.

After a pause, he turned to look at his wife, "India, it's almost time. Shall you prepare dinner?"

"Thanks to your reminder, I would have almost forgotten!"

Seeing that it was nearly six o'clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Easley quickly stood up.

"Rick, you talk to them, I'll prepare dinner!"

"Hmm!

"Of course... Bruce, little Molly, do you have any favorite food?" asked Mrs. Easley, turning her head.

"I'm casual, Molly likes to eat a little vegetarian!" Guo Shouyun said.

Molly Bevan nodded in agreement.

"Got it! yes, Olivia. Give your brother a call and see if he has time to come back in the evening?" Mrs. Easley turned, and walked with the servant towards the kitchen.

Olivia, who said yes, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, dialed it, asked a few quick questions, and then hung up.

"Mom, Mani said he's in Rome now and won't be back until tomorrow!" Olivia shouted to the kitchen.

"Got it!"

Hearing a noise coming from the kitchen, Olivia stood up.

"Molly, let's go. I'll take you upstairs to see the room you stayed in for the night and clean up by the way!"

"But...!"

Molly's hesitant words were interrupted by Olivia.

"Oh, don't be! As the best friend, if you let me stay in a hotel in Athens, wouldn't it seem that our Easley family is too uneducated!"

Hearing this, Rick Easley, who was the head of the Easley family, nodded in agreement.

"Molly, stay with us during your time in Athens. ”

"This...!" Molly Bevan glanced at Guo Shouyun next to him with hesitation in her heart, Rick Easley, as an elder, the invitation he personally sent out was obviously not as easy to refuse as Olivia.

Looking at his lover's hesitant eyes, Guo Shouyun, who didn't want her to be too embarrassed, could only nod and agree, although he was unwilling in his heart.

"Since Mr. Easley has invited you, you can stay here for the time being. I'll pick you up tomorrow!"

His words finally relieved Molly Bevan's heart. I just feel a little indebted to my boyfriend who traveled all the way to Athens.

"Okay, you see that everything is settled, let's go!"

After glaring at Guo Shouyun with victorious eyes, Olivia pulled Molly Bevan upstairs with brisk steps.

The corners of Guo Shouyun's eyes jumped, and he decided in his heart that he must get Al Bewen from New York as soon as possible. If successful, he will be able to reduce the number of light bulbs by two at once. That's a rare level of efficiency.
