Chapter 222: Self-made
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, as the first guest said goodbye, the Evan family meeting came to an end.
The first to leave was Orville, who seemed to have other activities in the evening. His departure was like a signal, and soon others followed.
After a while, only two guests were left in Evan's house, Virginia and Linda.
After the party, leaving the mess was the most annoying, and Evan had to hurry up to clean up. Virginia didn't leave because she had to help.
Evan clapped his hands, dusted away, and went from the basement to the first floor, where the barbecue grill is not commonly used, and it is the least disturbing thing to put in the basement.
After closing the basement door, Evan prepared to walk through the living room and continue to clean up the yard.
In the living room, Linda sat on the sofa for a long time, holding a book in her hand, and did not mean to help at all.
Evan didn't say anything when he saw Linda, they were originally here to be guests.
Moreover, in Evan's impression, Linda in the past was a 100% eldest lady, the kind whose ten fingers did not touch the spring water.
Now it seems that in the two years since she came to Los Angeles, Linda, who lives with Virginia, has not grown at all in this regard.
It is estimated that all the chores were done by Virginia and another roommate, Elizabeth.
Without saying a word, he walked towards the entrance, and after a few steps, Linda stopped him.
Audrey sent Lor away, Virginia was outside, and it was just the two of them.
Linda had something to say to Evan that she had to take the chance.
"Linda, what's wrong?"
Evan stopped, turned to face Linda, who had everything written on her face, and asked knowingly.
Linda looked at Evan, who was obviously a year younger than herself, but exuded an indescribable mature temperament, and at the same time her eyes flashed with affection, she became more and more determined in her thoughts.
I can't put it off any longer, I have to be involved in his life, otherwise there will be no place for me by his side.
It was only by his side that I had a chance to snatch him from Audrey's poor-breasted woman.
Yes, that's it.
Linda nodded secretly, looked at Evan and said confidently, "Evan, I'm going to your company." ”
Going to the company?
Evan was stunned, and what Linda said was inherent, but he quickly understood that Linda's "going to his company" didn't mean going to see it.
"You're going to work at my company?"
Linda nodded, "That's right!"
Evan scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Why?"
"You're only a junior and you're already in school, so you shouldn't have time to work part-time. ”
"And you're a member of the board of directors of the Undergraduate Association......"
Evan speculated, "Is it because Uncle Sproul doesn't have enough money?"
"Of course not, although my father didn't give me enough money to spend, my brothers would give me pocket money. Linda, who was much favored by her brothers, shook her head, "I just want to go to your company, you give me a job, not that kind of vase, but to be able to really do things." ”
"As for the time, what I have is, in fact, my credits are almost full, and I don't have much work as a director of the association, so you don't have to worry about me being too busy. ”
Evan said, "Well, you still haven't said why you want to work in my company......"
Linda frowned and asked, "You don't agree?"
"Evan, are we still friends?"
"No! of course we're friends!" Evan said quickly, "it's just ...... I'm afraid I'll delay your studies. ”
"Since we're friends, don't talk nonsense!" Linda urged, running out of time, if Virginia or Audrey returned, she would have to look for Evan next time.
Evan had to respond, "Okay, I agreed." ”
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Linda was about to answer, when she heard the two female ** talking getting closer and closer, so she whispered: "Then it's decided, don't regret it." ”
"I'll go to your company to decide in a few days."
"Now, I want to go back first. ”
At this time, Virginia and Audrey happened to appear in the living room, and Linda greeted Virginia: "Virginia, I'm leaving, are you together, or ......"
Virginia said, "Why are you going back, let's sit down for a while......"
"How many places have not been cleaned up?"
The latter sentence Virginia put in her heart and did not say it.
Linda said, "No, I can't help anyway." ”
"Why don't I go alone and you continue to help clean up?"
"This ......," Virginia hesitated.
Audrey interjected, "Sister, you and Linda can go back together, and we'll do the rest by ourselves." ”
"If you go separately, you'll have to have someone to taxi. ”
"One man...... It's not very safe. ”
As soon as Audrey said this, Linda couldn't help but be stunned.
They are obviously in opposition to each other, but they still maintain basic goodwill.
This is a good girl.
Evan raised his hand to look at the time, it was already half past four, and then said, "Audrey is right, Virginia, you and Linda together." ”
Evan spoke, and Virginia stopped insisting.
"Okay, it's best if I don't have to work. By the way, Evan, I see you have a lot of vegetables to prepare, I'm going to take some with me. ”
Evan shrugged indifferently and said, "It's up to you, it's okay to take it all, as long as you can finish eating." ”
Ten minutes later, Evan put Virginia and Linda in the car.
It took nearly half an hour for Evan and Audrey to finally clean up the house.
After doing all this, Evan collapsed on the living room couch and exclaimed, "I'm tired, Audrey, I've decided that I'll never have a party at home again." ”
"Here!" Audrey took two glasses of ice water, one to Evan, and slowly sat down next to him, "No, of course you have to be at home to entertain friends, so that you can appear close." ”
Evan took the ice water, took a sip, and said, "Well, you're right. ”
Evan used to drink cold boiled water, but now he can do as the locals do.
The two of them, who were a little tired, snuggled up to each other, and neither wanted to talk.
Two empty cups were placed on the coffee table in front of the couch.
After a while, Evan suddenly spoke, "Audrey, what are you going to eat at night?"
Audrey clasped her hands and closed her eyes.
After doing her housework, she finally had time to think carefully about what had happened today.
Seeing that Audrey didn't respond for a long time, Evan gently pushed her arm.
Audrey came back to her senses and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing?" Evan thought Audrey was tired, so he changed his words, "I'll go prepare dinner, you can squint on the couch again." ”
"Oh!" Audrey left Evan's embrace, Evan kissed her on the forehead, and was about to get up, but was pulled back by the other party: "Wait!"
"Honey, I have something to ask you!" 8)
