Phoebe's right hand was dangling from the shoulder strap, sitting on a chair at the table, tweaking the cappuccino with her left hand, while Jane He sat across from her, smiling as Phoebe sketched out the palm tree with a spoon.

Suddenly, the sound of the oven weakened, Jane clapped her hands, stood up, and said, "It's done, hurry up here, you don't have to carve it." ”

Phoebe nodded.

He simply took out the baking tray, and when he turned around, he saw Phoebe sitting on a chair, his right hand directly on the table, and his body was sitting straight, so he asked, "Phoebe, is your injury really okay?"

Phoebe turned to Jane with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's actually a little bruised at the beginning, I also suffered this kind of contusion in the garage when I was a child, it's not a big problem." ”

Jane put the baking tray on the table, moved the cookie to the plate, put the cream on it, put the cherries, glanced at Phoebe who was seriously ordering coffee, and said: "You don't like to go to the hospital since you were a child, fortunately, you have never been sick, but this time your injury is too scary, I am afraid that I will still hurt the internal organs, and I am a little worried." ”

Phoebe looked up and smiled, "It's fine, I'll just rest for a day or two, it's actually a little painful when I first hit it, but you know, I practiced wrestling with Sunny, so I really didn't get hurt." If I had hurt my internal organs, I would have collapsed. ”

Jane shook her head helplessly: "Well, I have always respected your decisions. But if you're uncomfortable, speak up. ”

Fei Bi felt that Jane's emotions were indeed worried, turned to the side, and said, "Really, I don't believe you press on my side, it doesn't hurt at all." I'm not used to it when I ask the doctor to check it, but my family is fine, in fact, Barbara has touched it before, and the bones are fine. ”

Jane pressed Phoebe's shoulder and junior, Phoebe didn't dodge, Jane added some strength, and saw that Phoebe still didn't dodge, so she said: "Okay, in short, you have to pay attention to your body, don't mess around." ”

Phoebe nodded, then grabbed a cookie that Jane had just made with her left hand and put it in her mouth, chewing it as she said, "Well, Jane, the little dessert you made is amazing." ”

Jane smiled: "It's obviously the recipe you told me, and you said that my cooking is delicious." ”

Phoebe shook her head and showed a very appreciative expression: "There are many people who have recipes, but there are not many people who can make delicious things according to recipes, you are better than many people." ”

Jane laughed again, "At the beginning, when you said you wanted to be a star with Sunny, I actually didn't approve of it. But I really didn't expect that after two years of being a star, you are much more cheerful than when you were a child. ”

Phoebe shrugged her shoulders and nodded, "Indeed, when celebrities can't be the same as when they are in restaurants and garages, they can't just have ability. After speaking, he said: "Well, Jane, in fact, you should be able to see that I came back in a hurry this time because of something else. ”

Jane shook her head: "To be honest, I didn't see it, really." Then he lowered his head and continued to make cookies, while saying: "The normal economic crisis is because the debts of the debt operation are completely paid off, resulting in the debtor having nowhere to spend money, and the accumulation leads to the social capital chain can not operate completely according to the design requirements, but when the debt expands indefinitely, the rupture of the social capital chain will be faster and more ferocious than the rupture of the capital chain caused by the debt being paid off." ”

Phoebe was stunned for a moment and said, "This is what I said when I was a child......"

Jane looked up again, looked at Phoebe and said, "That's right, that was the last time you went to the garage and came back to tell us, I remember it very well." ”

Phoebe is a little confused about what Jane is doing this, her social level is very low, she belongs to the kind of way that can only take the initiative by virtue of her advantages, and become the upper echelon from the beginning, except that Sunny helped her integrate in her girlhood, just look at Phoebe's experience, no matter where she is, if she can't be the leader at the beginning, she can't get along with people at all.

Of course, if Phoebe is willing, she can still get along with people, but Phoebe knows that there is such a simpler and more direct way, and she can't remember other people's faces, if she does something to make others feel uncomfortable, she won't be burdened with any psychological burden at all, so why should she accommodate others?

That's right, although not being able to remember the face is a shortcoming to Phoebe, but she uses rational thinking to deduce, so that the shortcomings are transformed into strengths, because there are many human beings, and the humans here don't listen to her, she can leave it behind at any time and choose another wave of humans, because she can't remember the human face, so she won't feel guilty like ordinary people who can remember human faces.

However, where she is unable to take advantage of this transformation from weakness to strength, such as communication with the company and with the family that adopted her, there will be a situation that she cannot avoid, and she will not be the boss.

But there is no way, this is the result that must be borne after having Sister Sun, and Phoebe can only accept it.

And Jane also discovers that since Phoebe has become more and more cheerful - compared to what Phoebe said when she was a child - in fact, in Jane's opinion, Phoebe really does not have the same level of social interaction as from the diplomatic family, even if Phoebe is only an adopted daughter.

However, Phoebe's words just now also made Jane a little depressed, feeling that Phoebe was still too defensive of people, but for Jane, no matter whether Phoebe had something to say when she came back, Jane was happy that Phoebe actually thought of going home after being injured.

To be honest, from the moment she was brought to the door by Barbara, Phoebe had always felt that Jane at home was in a happy mood, until she said something like that just now, and Jane was a little sad.

This made Phoebe very helpless, and it took more effort to communicate with the "stranger" who couldn't get rid of it, which made Phoebe feel that she was wasting her life, but Phoebe also knew that Sister Sun didn't like what she did, so Phoebe put on a wry smile and said, "Jane, am I too bad?"

Jane patted Phoebe's hand, shook her head and smiled, "It's not the first day I know you're bad at socializing. ”

So, Phoebe didn't know what to say.

Jane laughed again: " From the time you told me that you didn't want to go to school, and also said that nerds and aliens will only be bullied at school, and it is easy to develop a character that is taken advantage of, I know that you are not weak in social terms, but because you can't remember faces, so you will develop very slowly, but your vision is much more powerful than your sisters and them, Mila at your age, at most, can only think of enveloping nerds and aliens, but you will not think that they will be easily controlled in the future, so she can only make nerds and aliens more like normal people, while you have the ability to make normal people become nerds and aliens, this is your talent, and it is also a talent that can have greater development in our circleMira just worked hard, but you were able to build your own world, and I don't think I was wrong at all. ”

"Hmm. Phoebe nodded, pandering to Jane, in this home, Jane's words just now were not reprimands, but praise.

Jane said again: "Later, the words you said when you persuaded Katyn to withdraw from the real estate investment once again refreshed my opinion of you, Phoebe, you are a natural leader, I can only tell you this in private, or your eldest sister and your brother will not be convinced." But if I lie in bed on my deathbed, my last words must be to ask you to help me take care of your sister and brother, you are so much better than them. ”

"......" Phoebe was really confused, she felt that Jane's mood was a very happy emotion of relief, comfort, peace and so on, but combined with Jane's words, Phoebe understood that she could not deal with it easily, although Phoebe mainly relied on Sunny and Barbara for social interaction, but it could not be said that Phoebe understood when to speak and when not to speak, now obviously she should say something, but Phoebe really didn't know what to say - blamed her for not being able to take the lead - so she had to put on a shocked look.

Jane looked at Phoebe's expression, immediately smiled, and said, "Don't worry, I will live until your children are also married." Obviously, Phoebe deceived Jane, and Jane was already happy because Phoebe took the initiative to come back today, and seeing Phoebe no longer as calm as usual after listening to her last words, but with a shocked look, Jane was even happier.

Feeling Jane's emotions, Phoebe knew that she had done the right thing just now, so she took advantage of the victory and pursued, "Are you sick?"

Jane shook her head and smiled, "Of course not, I'm not the kind of person who hides from my family when I'm sick." What I just meant was that you are very talented, and Katyn and I didn't discover your strengths earlier, so you didn't get better training, so I feel a little sorry for you. But the good thing is that you work harder on your own, better than anyone else, which makes me feel much more at ease. ”

"Oh......" Phoebe was already wondering, what the hell did Jane want to do?

Jane said again: "Okay, after confirming that your injuries are not as serious as I imagined, I understand that you really have something to say when you ran back." The question is, do you want to talk to me, or to Katyn, or to both of us?"

That's right!" Phoebe said inwardly.

"Well, after the accident, I was waiting with Barbara, and I was thinking, even though Valerie was going to focus on music and acting, I always felt like she didn't have the talent for it, I mean, her advantage over the more talented and hardworking people was simply that she could help provide more opportunities at home. ”

Jane raised her eyebrows, nodded, and said with a wry smile: "But you know, she doesn't like things in this circle, and prefers freedom." ”

Phoebe shook her head and said, "Freedom also means sinking into the unknown...... To be honest, I think Valerie may become a weakness in the family in the future if she continues like this. ”

Jane frowned and asked, "Did you hear anything about Barbara?" Without waiting for Phoebe to answer, Jane quickly came to her senses again, covered her mouth in surprise and said, "We are a new force......

Phoebe nodded and said: "That's right, after today's car accident, I was thinking, the family used to be a middle-level family of the diplomatic group, but Ebron went to Onclud, and you and Mira also began to manage the maintenance helmet association, in general, plus if Mira succeeds in China, she will also greatly whisper about her family's status after coming back, about four or five years later, the eyes staring at us will become more and more, Valerie will be used if she is still outside, she will be taken advantage of, she will be one of our biggest weaknesses." ”

Jane shook her head with a wry smile: "Neither Katyn nor I expected Valerie...... In the future, they won't be able to rely on you......"

Phoebe helped Jane's elbow and said, "Don't worry, just take it one step at a time." By the way, my Titan has absorbed a lot of soldiers, and it used to be merged into the security department of Titan, and now I think that the security department should be separated from the security department to set up a security company, and if Valerie really doesn't want to come back to help, then we can arrange bodyguards for her. ”

Jane pursed her lips, looked at Phoebe, nodded slowly, was silent for a while, and suddenly hugged Phoebe's head and cried: "I didn't expect you to grow more than I imagined......"

Phoebe was nervous by her adoptive mother's sudden head hug, because in her memory, there were countless ways to kill people after holding her head. But as I said before, because of Sunny's philosophy, Phoebe can't be strong in this home that she is both strange and familiar with, so even if she is held by someone's head, she has to endure it.

Fortunately, Phoebe knew that Jane's emotions did not reveal hostility and hatred, but let Jane hold her, without any action, after a while, feeling Jane's mood better, Phoebe did not struggle, and said directly in Jane's arms: "Some things must be prepared in advance, whether Valerie likes it or not, the bodyguard must be prepared for her." Also, I don't know if she has a boyfriend now, and if she does, I want to investigate it in detail, if there is a problem...... Well, I'll tell you. ”

Valerie's departure from the family is not uncommon in various top circles, but all those who leave are basically required to cut ties with the family, because this is their own choice to break away from the top circle, including their children who want to enter this circle in the future, will also be regarded as outsiders and enter the circle, and will not be taken care of at all.

But Valerie is a little different from those who are out of the circle, that is, what Phoebe just said, the status of the family has improved, so that Valerie has a second chance, but if she already has a boyfriend, she must be forcibly separated to return to the family.

Jane felt that the pause was to consider her feelings, after all, although it was a good thing for her children to choose freedom, it was still very sad for a mother to see that her children could no longer wear them in the upper circles.

In fact, Jane didn't know that under Phoebe's instructions, nearly eight hundred people had disappeared, and Phoebe wanted to say that people would disappear just now, but Phoebe changed her attention halfway through, thinking that in order to make Jane happy, maybe she could catch Valerie and coerce her to return to the family.

Well, Sister Sun said that children should report to their parents, and they should be kind to their adoptive parents, Phoebe felt that she was too good, and she was really good to Jane, not only arranged for her to manage other people's maintenance helmet associations, but also prepared to use Jane's second daughter's boyfriend to blackmail Jane's second daughter, so that Jane's second daughter could also make Jane happy......

Well, Phoebe knew it wasn't right, but she thought it would be a good idea to fix a future hole and make Jane happy......
