153 Chapter 153
Patrick asked for a glass of champagne, and then asked for a glass later.
β¦β¦ After that, I asked for another drink.
On the other hand, Lu Ling was in a good mood. Leo was a very interesting person. She was going to get some sleep, but she arrived at JFK Airport at night. That would be bad for her jet lag, and she wasn't prepared to stay up all night.
'Oh, I was at Stamford Bridge and even though I'm a Chelsea fan, I have to say you won that game beautifully. You know, you didn't send Trek that time. Leo said with a smile.
When Lu Ling introduced Patrick and Leo to each other before, he was still a little embarrassed. In fact, Pat needs no introduction at all. Leo knew him, and everyone knew him. He posed with a few flight attendants and signed several passengers who were also in first class. Leo also took a picture with him and asked for his autograph. Leo even joked, "If I put this picture on my social media, I'm sure a lot of girls would want to date me." β
Pat just smiled politely. Later, when he went to his seat, he simply straightened his face. Lu Ling felt that he was a little strange.
Now, as she listened to Leo, she realized that the guy had already asked for a fourth or fifth glass of champagne, and if he continued like this, he would get drunk before he reached New York.
Lu Ling then glanced at the young flight attendant who brought him wine, it was indeed very beautiful. Is it because of this, she thought?
"Christine, are you listening?"
"Oh sorry, I'm here. Yes, it was a good game, we won, but we paid for it. It's a tough game. She sighed.
Leo smiled and nodded, he hesitated for a moment, and asked, "I hope you don't mind, I want to ask, do you have a date or boyfriend lately? β
When it came to this topic, Lu Ling was a little uncomfortable.
She didn't know if it was making her uncomfortable talking about her last relationship with a man she was still a stranger to, or if answering the question of whether he was single made her feel more uncomfortable.
She hesitated and shook her head, "No." I mean, you know, I'm busy......"
"That's great. If you don't mind, I think maybe we can go out together when we get back to London? Please, anyone has a second chance. β
She had to turn him down, but he seemed sincere and expectant. She was hesitating to speak, and her shoulder was grabbed, it was Pat. He was a little too strong, and even pinched her. With a faint drunkenness, he whispered in her ear, "Boss, I have something to tell you." He lifted his chin at Leo again, "You don't mind, do you? He pointed. Lu Ling glanced up at him, he was a little rude like this.
Leo stood up with a smile, "Of course I don't mind. Please feel free and don't rush. He bowed slightly and walked to Patrick's seat.
Patrick sat down beside Lu Ling. He stared at her and didn't speak for a long time. Lu Ling looked at his eyes, he was a little angry, and he did drink a lot. He grabbed her hand suddenly, but still didn't speak.
"Oh my God, Pat, how many drinks have you had?" Lu Ling asked in a low voice.
"I don't remember. I think I'll have to get some more whiskey. He said in a calm voice.
"No, I don't have the strength to carry you down. β
"Tina......" he gripped her hand.
"What's wrong? β
"You've been talking to that guy for a long time. β
"Yes, he's a fan too, a funny guy. Moreover, he is a friend of Zixiang's elder brother......"
"Why did you tell him you weren't dating someone else?"
"I don't know, I think it's probably because of ...... I really don't. β
"So what am I? your cannon/friend? Okay, if you really think so. But, sorry, I guess you can only have one of my friends, I mean I don't accept you dating someone else. β
It turned out that he was jealous. Drinking so much champagne, it's all because of this. It's not because that flight attendant is beautiful. Lu Ling didn't know if he was relaxed or more stressed. Maybe she doesn't need to worry at all, he loves her, how can there be other girls in his eyes?
She pursed her lips and smiled, "Even if you don't come, I'm ready to refuse." β
"Really?"
"Really. β
"Wait for me, Tina. Patrick said as he stood up, and he walked over to Leo.
Lu Ling looked over a little worriedly. They started talking, both smiling and seemed to have a good conversation.
This guy.
Patrick straightened up and walked this way, smiling and winking at her. After sitting down again, he said, "I switched seats with him." He's a really nice guy. β
"What did you say?"
"I said you're my girl, and I have to sit with you. β
"Are you really?" Lu Ling's voice rose sharply. Several passengers looked back at her, and she quickly made an apologetic gesture.
"Tina, do I look stupid?" Patrick shook his head helplessly, "He knew that I had announced my stay during the day, and I said I was in a mess right now and needed to talk to the boss, so he agreed, and told me to go to Chelsea if I changed my mind and wanted to transfer." β
"You lied to him. β
"Yes. He laughed, "So for the next few hours, whether you like it or not, you're going to have to sit with me." He frowned slightly, "It's a pity we can't do anything." Or, I'll go to the bathroom and wait for you?"
"Heyβ"

When he got off the plane, Leo asked again, and Lu Ling politely rejected him in front of Patrick. "I'm sorry I haven't had any plans to date lately," she said. Leo looked a little depressed, but still smiled politely and said that he hoped to see him again in the future.
When they came out, they quickly met Nathan Neil's assistant, as well as several bodyguards. This surprised both Lu Ling and Patrick. Nathan Neil's assistant is a very beautiful and sexy blonde woman, about thirty years old. Her name is Cindy McGuire.
Cindy said that because their flight was exposed on Twitter in advance, there were many fans of Patrick, as well as fans of Lu Ling.
"I thought Americans don't watch football. Lu Ling said.
"Oh dear, we don't look. But you both have pretty faces, don't you?"
Cindy smiled very publicly, but despite this, Lu Ling's first impression of this woman was very good, she looked very capable. She couldn't help but wonder, would such a woman have any special relationship with Nate?
"Mr. Lawrence and Mr. Baker are waiting for you. We'll go to your hotel first, and then we'll have a cocktail party at Mr. Lawrence's house. However, Mr. Lawrence said that if you want to rest, you can make an appointment tomorrow. Oh, by the way, Patrick dear, you're even more handsome than you are on TV. Cindy said and blinked.
"Thank you. Patrick smiled at her, then looked at Lu Ling, "Are you sleepy?"
Lu Ling slept on the plane for two hours, and Patrick slept even longer because he had drunk some wine. Now they're in good spirits. She wanted to meet Nate and Steve as soon as possible and get things settled and get back to London as soon as possible. So he said, "I think we can go over tonight." β
Sure enough, there are quite a few fans waiting for them. If it weren't for security, it would be a problem. Lu Ling really didn't expect that their popularity in the United States would be so high. Perhaps, as Cindy said, she and Pat both have pretty faces. This is a huge advantage in any industry and in any country. People will like you for it.
When Cindy talked about the cocktail party, Lu Ling was still a little worried. She barely carries any luggage, let alone the clothes and high heels she wears for social occasions. So, while in the car, she told Cindy about it. Cindy made a phone call, and when she got to the hotel, where all the styles of dresses and heels from various brands had been delivered to her hotel room, she wondered how she did it β and found exactly the right size for her.
"You should eat more, my dear, if it weren't for a few centimeters shorter, you could have gone to Victoria's Secret's stage. Cindy exclaimed, her eyes filled with appreciation.
Lu Ling smiled and said thank you, it seems that it is more pleasant to be evaluated by the same sex than the opposite sex. After all, the latter sometimes says sweet talk just to trick you into getting laid.
Patrick suddenly said, "Tina doesn't need those centimeters at all. She's just perfect. β
Lu Ling looked at him a little reproachfully, but he shrugged his shoulders and continued, "I'm just telling the truth. β
The expression on Cindy's face was a little subtle, and she said, "Indeed. By the way, Patrick, your room is next door. I'll wait for you downstairs. β
There's one piece of information that Cindy didn't say β
Her and Pat's rooms are interconnected from the inside.
Lu Ling found this out when he was undressing, because Pat appeared inexplicably, and she had just driven him away.
This scared her.
Nate, this guy.
"I decided to write a thank you note to Nate. He walked over and put his arm around her waist and said.
Lu Ling slipped out of his arms.
"I'll have to take a shower, then change my clothes, maybe put on makeup. Cindy was waiting for us. She said as she walked to the bathroom.
"I'm sure she has a good patience. He followed her into the bathroom and closed the door.
A minute later, Patrick was still locked out of the bathroom. He went back to his room depressed, he also had to shower and change his clothes.
Half an hour later, when Lu Ling and Patrick appeared in the lobby of the hotel, they attracted countless eyeballs. Cindy got up from the couch, and she approached them and made a little joke:
"I thought I'd wait a little longer. β
Lu Ling was a little embarrassed, Cindy really knew, maybe it wasn't guessed from Pat's words, maybe Nate had already told her to book these two rooms.
"Don't worry, this hotel is Mr. Lawrence's, *absolutely safe. Just be at home. Also, you guys look amazing. I think people who don't know you will think you're Hollywood stars. Can we go?"
"Of course, thank you for waiting. β
That's when Cindy gets a phone call. She said sorry and took two steps to the side, she looked at Lu Ling with a strange look. When she hung up, she said, "There's bad news. β
Lu Ling was still smiling, "What's the bad news?" 166 Reading Network
