Fiona is also not afraid to speculate with the greatest malice about Frank and Monica's unreliable parents, so she finally listened to Lip's advice and decided to deposit the winter fund in the bank.

While Fiona was going out to save money, Lip came to No. 2 next door, and I don't know if it was a coincidence, just happened to meet Mandy, who was going out.

The Cold War between Mandy and Lip has been going on for months, and neither side shows signs of bowing down first, nor does it mean to break ties completely.

Mandy doesn't talk to Lip, but Lip's Chinese goods are mainly sold by her, Debbie and Carl are just her assistants, and the money collected from Debbie and Carl's sales will be handed over to Mandy, and then deposited into the account designated by Lip.

Lip vs. Mandy, and vs. Karen, there's a difference.

For Karen, it's just a purely physical need, and for Mandy, there is still some pity.

It depends on the different personalities of Karen and Mandy.

Although they also live in the slums, Karen and Mandy are two completely different girls, Karen from a relatively wealthy family is a spoiled girl, with a selfish personality, never caring about others, only thinking about her own happiness, and Mandy, who grew up in a family with a worse living environment than the Gallagher family, has not lost the goodness of her nature and the pursuit of a better life.

For Karen, who is selfish and only thinks about herself, Lip takes what she needs, and although she is still connected, she is not close.

Lip is much more attentive to Mandy, who has the possibility of being saved, helping her with her schoolwork, providing her with a place to live without the influence of her family, and giving her a steady source of income.

These can be regarded as Mandy's reward for serving him.

Although in American values, when Mandy and Lip were together before, they only took what they needed, but Lip is not a pure American after all, and his soul comes from China.

Although Lip is now trying his best to learn and adapt to American values, some deep-rooted traditional concepts are not so easy to change.

Unable to become a couple with Mandy, or using her as a tool to vent his desires, Lip can only help her as much as he can.

When they met at the door, Mandy's eyes flickered and her mouth moved, but she still didn't say a word of greeting.

Lip also pulled out a smile and didn't take the initiative to talk to her.

Seeing what Mandy was holding, Lip knew she was going to deliver to a customer, so he turned sideways and made way for her.

Mandy lowered her head, ran down the stairs in front of the door, and when she reached the front door, she stopped and looked back, and saw that Lip was still standing by the door, watching her.

Mandy was slightly happy in her heart, pursed her lips, and asked out loud, "How is college life?"

"Very good!" Mandy took the initiative to speak, and Lip naturally did not continue to be reserved, and hurriedly replied, "Not bad." ”

Not knowing what to say more, Mandy stood there, kicking the fallen leaves with her feet, and was in no hurry to deliver to the customer.

Lip grinned and took the initiative to say, "Do you have time at noon, let's have a meal together." ”

Lipu, who is accustomed to Chinese thinking, still believes that there is no problem that cannot be solved with one meal.

"Yes!" Mandy replied.

"That'...... See you later!" Lip said.

"Hmm. Mandy nodded, turned away, couldn't hide the smile on her face any longer, and walked much brisker than before, to deliver to the customer who had been scheduled by phone.

Lip waited for her to run away before pushing the door into the house, burrowing into the basement, first checking the working condition of the bitcoin mining machine, and transferring the bitcoin address password to the USB flash drive hanging around his neck.

The market price of bitcoin is now going all the way down, from a high of $35 in June to less than $15 for a single coin.

Lip knows that this wave of bitcoin has not yet reached the bottom, so it has not amplified the acquisition of bitcoin for the time being, and is ready to wait until the price of a single bitcoin falls below $10 before making a bottom.

With the benefit of rebirth memory, it doesn't take much energy to do this.

Most of the funds from the sale of bitcoin at a high price are held in bank accounts in the Cayman Islands, waiting for the opportunity to mobilize.

After inspecting the work of the miner, Lip went to the band's training area, picked up the guitar, and played with the chords.

Now, Lip's brother band has taken shape, and after Carl, Ian and Kevin have also joined in succession.

Carl is now practicing the guitar very vigorously, and every day after school, he has to soak in the etude for two or three hours, and his technique improves very quickly.

Ian and Kevin were tricked into by Lip, one as a bassist and the other as a drummer, and they didn't practice as hard as Carl, but they were guaranteed to practice at least seven hours a week.

Before Lip went to report to the University of Chicago, the four of them had already done a joint practice, and the three of them would often practice together when Lip was away.

Kevin also offered to set up a small stage in the Eleber bar after a while for everyone to perform after the band had finished a few songs.

This band was conceived by Lip as the easiest way for a few brothers to get ahead.

With the mature copyright system and music performance market in the United States, Lip only needs to copy a few songs with the potential to become popular and give them to everyone to sing, and it is not difficult to change the living conditions of the brothers.

Lip already has a plan to take everyone on a travel tour if the band can be formed together next summer.
