The plane began to land, Shi Lei did a good job of disguise with the help of Jenny, he didn't want to leak it for the time being, he had to wait for the right time to reappear. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"You mean you're not going home for a while, are you?"
On the car that Schwartz had arranged to pick up the airport, Jenny asked Shi Lei.
"Yes, not for the time being, you and Alice go back first, I may go home soon, or maybe I will have to stay outside for a few days, but not too long!"
"Okay", Jenny nodded, although she didn't quite understand Shi Lei's thoughts, but she didn't ask, but that didn't mean Alice wouldn't ask.
"Why? Why not go home? ”
Alice tilted her head to look at Shi Lei, her inquiring eyes were as if she was going to dig out the secret that Shi Lei was hiding.
Shi Lei opened his mouth, and was about to try to explain to Alice why he did this, when Jenny said to Shi Lei as if she suddenly remembered something: "Oh, dear, you may be able to take Alice with you!" ”
Shi Lei looked at Jenny in surprise: "What's wrong?" ”
Alice was also full of inquiries.
Jenny smiled slightly, looking very happy: "Because I am about to go to work, I need you to accompany Alice during this time until she makes her own choice!" ”
"Work?"
Shi Lei was a little dazed, Jenny has been accompanying him in China, where is the time to look for a job?
However, this is not as violent as Alice's reaction, and Alice, who was in a very good mood just now because of returning to the familiar environment, instantly asked Jenny with a very puzzled expression: "Why?" Wouldn't it be nice to be a freelance writer? Why go out to work? ”
"But that's not what I liked, I still liked what I was doing before, so I contacted the 'W' magazine where I used to work the other day and luckily they didn't turn me down!"
"Okay!"
Shi Lei nodded noncommittally, although he did not support Jenny to go out to work, he did not object, he respected Jenny's choice.
"We should respect Jenny's choice, shouldn't we?"
After finishing speaking, Shi Lei turned his head to look at Alice and said.
Alice turned her head to the side sullenly, her lips slightly "pouting", like a sulking child.
"Alright, I guess it's time for us to say goodbye!"
It took about half an hour for the car to stop opposite the house where Shi Lei lived, outside the door of Boston Common, Jenny said as she lifted her suitcase and was about to get out of the car.
"Goodbye, Jenny!"
Shi Lei gently hugged Jenny, and Jenny also pecked Shi Lei's face lightly. But Alice still didn't turn her head to the side, as if she hadn't heard Jenny's words.
For Alice's petty temperament, Shi Lei and Jenny were accustomed to it, and knew that it would soon disappear, so Jenny didn't wait for Alice to say goodbye to her, and got out of the car.
When the car door was closed, Alice suddenly turned around, Jenny waved at her, but it was blocked by the thick window glass, she didn't see the tears in Alice's eyes at this time!
The car began to start slowly, Jenny also pulled her suitcase across the road, and walked towards the opposite side, and the tears in Alice's eyes couldn't help but start to spill wantonly.
Shi Lei, who was watching Jenny, knew that Alice was whimpering, and only then did he realize that she was crying.
"What's wrong with you, Alice? We just left Jenny for a while and will be back soon! ”
Tears made Alice the "porcelain doll" in Shi Lei's memory, which made Shi Lei's voice unconsciously softer, and his eyes began to flicker! But soon, Shi Lei expelled all the distracting thoughts in his heart!
Alice raised her head and looked at Shi Lei with sad eyes: "Why, Shi?" Why should people be separated, isn't it good for us to be together forever? ”
"If there is no separation, where is the joy of reunion?"
Shi Lei smiled and comforted Alice, took out a few tissues in his hand, and gently wiped the tears that were still sliding down Alice's face.
"She's Jenny's sister! She's my sister! ”
"But I don't want you to leave me!"
"We won't leave you, only you will leave us, just like I left my parents, and they were there all along!"
"That means as long as I don't leave, we'll be together forever, right?"
"Yes, we will always live together, as long as you reason!"
Finally calmed Alice, and the car sped all the way into the hotel that had been booked.
Here, Shi Lei met with Schwartz's assistant Erin, a shrewd middle-aged woman, who brought everything Shi Lei needed most about the team's trades, as well as all the betting information on Shi Lei at the Olympics.
Schwartz has not yet returned from China, and the "enthusiasm" of domestic businesses makes him really unable to spare time!
Seeing Shi Lei and Alice coming to the hotel alone, without seeing Jenny, Erin, who knew Shi Lei's situation very well, looked at Shi Lei's eyes a little meaningful, she still had some situations to explain to Shi Lei, she didn't want to disturb Shi Lei's "good things", and quickly chose to leave.
In fact, it's no wonder that Erin misunderstood, how chaotic the private lives of American celebrities are, and the people in their line can be said to know best!
After sending Erin away, Shi Lei comforted Alice, who was still uneasy, and after Alice fell asleep, Shi Lei opened the information brought by Erin.
Shi Lei first opened the betting information of the Olympic Games, and he didn't care much about multiples or anything, so he quickly jumped to the last page, where there was a long list of Arabic numerals!
"Oh, $1,769 million."
What a huge fortune this is, I believe there is no need to describe it more, but Shi Lei was not surprised at all, even he felt strange. In fact, the reason is very simple, because he already knew the result! It was even lower than he expected!
I have known everything for a long time, and the joy of success is actually a kind of "injury", because the "surprise" in it is gone.
Without "surprise", Xi couldn't stay in Shi Lei's heart for long, he quickly put down this information, picked up the news summary of the Celtics team trade, and confirmed that it was the process.
It's a long process, so the document looks more like a journal that details the when, where, who, and what the conversation was about. This gave Shi Lei a more intuitive understanding of the beginning and end of the transaction, and also had more adequate preparation for how to deal with it.
In the next few days, Shi Lei waited quietly in the hotel, waiting for the time to intervene! (To be continued.) )
