Chapter 17 I want to say that you will see a little beauty
Link really didn't think about pollution.
The Bali Fishery is water taken from the Moody River. The Moody River is just a small river, there are no big cities, no big farms, no mines, only a few small communities along the river, and the pollution is not serious. Lake Mead, on the other hand, is mainly fed by the Colorado River and the Virgin River, which runs from east to west.
Colorado is the living river of the entire western western plateau, and there must be a lot of pollution. The Virgin River, though small in water, winds for hundreds of miles, flows through two states, has some small towns along the river, and has a lot of mining, and it is not less polluted.
If the water pollution is too severe, the fish will not be marketed at all if the specified content of the substances specified in the fish is exceeded. If mercury levels are high in the water, it may not even be possible to develop a farming industry.
Now Kate helps him think about these questions, and he is very happy with them: "You have thought it through and I need to thank you for your seriousness. β
In fact, Kate is not very old, maybe a year or two older than him. But there are more questions to think about than he does, at least in this regard.
Kate gave him a big smile and said, "It's just our job." β
Link looked at the sky, the sun was already past mid-heaven, and he said, "I think it's time for us to go back." Overtown doesn't have a decent restaurant, but there is one I know of a restaurant that has pretty good pizza. Maybe we can have a pizza to cope with it. β
Kate laughs, "For those of us who are out on the field, hot pizza is a rare delicacy. Usually we only nibble on cold bread. As she spoke, she actually took out a bag from her car, which contained a pack of sandwiches. She laughs. "Now I'll treat you to bread, and you'll treat me to pizza when you go back to Overtown. β
She took out two pieces and handed them to Link: "Benjamin, they must be hungry too." β
A pack of dry sandwiches was eaten by six people, and each person only had two slices. That, of course, is not enough.
Kate grabbed the bag and crumpled it in her hand and said, "Can we go back to eating pizza?" β
Of course, there are not many sandwiches, but many women may be enough for one meal in order to lose weight.
Link looked at her slender body, hands and feet, and said with a smile, "I thought you had a diet habit. I mean, you're slim. β
"Haha, I'd rather it be fuller. You know, if you don't have a D or above, a man won't even look at it. β
Link looked her up and down with a smile.
Kate felt his eyes offended her, and her face sank, "Hey, man." Are you going to laugh at me?"
Link shook his head and said, "No, of course not. I think you're actually in pretty good shape, I mean, C is actually pretty good. Well, I mean, you're very shapely! Sometimes, it's not big and pretty. β
"Maybe we have a common language. Kate opened the door herself and got into the car and said. "Big, really sexy, but not necessarily beautiful!"
Link also got in the car and said with a smile, "So what?"
"So, it would be better if we could have a black pepper steak later. β
Link smirked and said, "So you yearn for sexy?"
"No, I choose beautiful sexy!" said Kate with an eyebrow raised. "I know I'm not pretty. But I feel like I can be more beautiful. β
Link shook his head with a smile and said, "I thought you were confident. It turned out that I was wrong. β
"What do you mean?"
"You're beautiful, at least you don't sag!"
Link said this with a certain compliment, but more from the heart. Kate is more than 1.7 meters tall, wears a pair of flat-soled white shoes, her legs are slender and straight, and her waist is thin enough, although she does not have a C, she is not small. In addition, her face does not have the high cheekbones of many white people, and she looks quite soft.
Maybe it's because she has to go outdoors, she doesn't wear much makeup today, and the skin on her face looks relatively delicate. Although the facial features are not as three-dimensional as Westerners, the facial features are also delicate, and the only thing that appears big is a pair of eyes. Such a face may not be considered sexy or beautiful in the eyes of Westerners.
But Link doesn't think so. He was five when he was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Hans. At that time, he could already remember, and now he still remembers his biological mother's oriental beauty with oriental characteristics. The nostalgia for his biological mother made him tend to be Oriental in terms of aesthetics for women.
That's why he said that.
"Thank you for the compliment. Kate said with a smile. "I know a girlfriend from China. She said that if I were Chinese, I could become a star in China with my face. By the way, you're Chinese, right? β
Link was not inferior to his pedigree, and he nodded in acknowledgement, "Yes." My biological parents are both from China. He is a former international student. β
She looked at him twice, and a pair of beautiful eyes bent slightly, and said, "You have made a great change in my impression of you." I thought you were the kind of wooden Chinese. β
Link spread his hands: "Yes, in the eyes of Americans, I am Chinese." But I spent only eight of my 22 years in China and the rest in the United States. So I don't know what celebrities are like in China. But I guess you can be an American movie star. You're beautiful, you're serious, and I want to be successful in any industry. β
For Americans, as long as they are from Asia, most of them will be collectively called Chinese, but those from Greater China will be called Chinese. After all, whether Americans admit it or not, the Chinese have left a strong mark on the history of the United States.
They were talking and laughing all the way, and it was nearly two o'clock in the afternoon when the three cars returned to Overtown.
Link leads people to the restaurant where Barbara works. It's a small restaurant that sells burgers and pizzas, but it also serves steak or pork chops.
"Link?" Barbara said with a frown as she didn't expect to see Link at this time, and looked at him with a few people. "You didn't eat on time. β
"That's not my fault. We just went to Lake Mead, you know. There is no delicious pizza there. We ate something though. He gave Barbara a hug and said. "Mom, this is Kate, the assessment expert I invited. And Benjamin, Warren, Mike, and Daglas, who are my friends. This is my mom, Barbara. β
After saying hello, Barbara also saw that the four men were Link's bodyguards, which made her feel more worried. But there was nothing strange on her face. After arranging the seats, she said to Kate, "Kate, I suggest you try our special pizza here." β
Benjamin and the four of them consciously sat down at another table next door. This made Barbara more sure of her judgment.
"Of course, that's what I'm here for. Kate said with a smile.
"In addition to Pisa, she needs a black pepper steak," Link said. He said to Kate with a smile. "The black pepper steak here is so good that Sammy deserves a three-star chef's certificate, but only when she's cooking a black pepper steak. Of course, when it comes to making pizza, she is also quite good. β
He turned back to Benjamin and said, "Guys, don't be polite to me. β
Warren laughed and said, "I think I could eat three steaks." The other three also smiled and nodded, each ordering what they wanted to eat.
"What about you, Link? Seven-ripe black pepper steak?"
"We're here for a small pizza. Link glanced at Kate. "Two people should be able to finish eating. β
Kate shrugged and said, "I can only consume a quarter at most." β
"That's just right. Link said to Barbara, looking up. "Mom, ask John to add some more shredded onions to three-quarters of our pizza. By the way, Kate, how old is your steak?"
"Same as you. β
Barbara wrote down all their requests and said, "Soon." β
"Thank you, Mom!"
As they spoke, the bell on their doorframe rang. That proves that the guests are coming. Barbara turned her head to look and saw that it was her daughter and another girl who had come in. "Alice, Lily, haven't you had lunch yet?"
"We've already eaten, Mom. We saw Link's car, is he here? He said he was going to take me and Lily for a ride today. β
Hearing her daughter say this, Barbara glanced at Lily again, with a clear smile on her face, and said, "Then I wish you all a good time." Link hasn't had lunch yet, though, so you might have to wait. β
Alice had already seen Link and a beautiful blonde woman sitting at a table, she knew very well what her good friend was thinking, and when she saw the two talking and laughing, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her good friend: "Link, is this what you said about Subis?"
Link turned his head and said helplessly, "Hi, Alice, this is Kate and Lily." And, Alice, this is my friend, Kate Bruce. Again, I have to stress that Subis broke up with me more than a month ago. I thought you already knew. He said and turned back to Kate. "Kate, this is my sister, Alice. And this is her good friend, Lily Spall. β
"Did you tell me? Maybe I forgot. Alice shrugged her shoulders and emphasized. "Lily is my best friend! Kate, can I sit here?"
Kate felt some inexplicable hostility towards this little girl towards herself, but she still smiled and said, "Of course." β
Alice sat down and said to Lily, "You sit at Link's." I'm a little hungry again, and you're definitely hungry too. I guess Link wouldn't mind treating us to a bite to eat. Right, Link. β
Link shook his head and smiled and said, "It's my honor that two beauties can appreciate their faces." β
Lily glanced at Link and saw that he still had a smile on his face, and she didn't want to disturb Link and them. But when Alice and Link said that, she sat down too, "Hey, Link. Long time no see. β
"yes, I haven't seen you for more than a month, Lily, you're getting prettier again. Link said with a smile. "I guess the boys in your school often fight for you. Maybe you can introduce a boy to Alice. She certainly doesn't have a boyfriend yet. β
Lily pursed her lips and said, "Neither do I." And I think those boys are naΓ―ve!"
With that, Link didn't know what to do next. He snorted and said, "By the way, what do you want Lily to eat or drink?"
"Pisa, add more shredded onions! and a glass of apple juice." β
"That's good!" Link didn't say anything, and asked his sister again. "Alice, what about you?"
"I want a Coke. I'm losing weight. I'm going to lose more than five pounds this year. β
Link almost didn't say "You're kidding". He hadn't heard of anyone drinking Coke to lose weight.
