Chapter 068: No
Li Kangping tried his first attempt to write a dissertation in German, and his desk was piled with German literature and German dictionaries.
"That's all for today."
Li Kangping stopped writing his paper, and he dialed the phone: "Good night, Jennifer." ”
"Kangping, good night."
"Honey, I'm just calling to tell you this."
"Honey, I'm glad you did."
"Jennifer, I hope to have tea with you tomorrow afternoon."
"Tomorrow afternoon? I have an appointment. ”
"Huh?"
Li Kangping paused for a moment.
She has dates, which is normal. How could such a beautiful girl be able to date only one man.
"But ......," Jennifer said, "maybe, maybe, I can cancel the date." ”
"That's great. You know where I'm staying, you come over tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, and Flick will prepare afternoon tea for us. ”
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Li Kangping rang the housekeeper's bell, and then opened the door.
After a while, the apartment building's butler, Frick, a white man in his forties, always wore a bow tie and a butler's standard uniform, whether it was six in the morning or twelve in the evening.
"Mr. Li, what can I do for you?" Flick asked.
"Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, you come and clean the room, have a few clothes to be sent to the laundry to be hand-washed, and help me buy a few bottles of whiskey, you know, I only drink Irish whiskey. By the way, add two bottles of wine, you don't have to worry about the vintage, but the origin must be France. ”
"Okay, Mr. Lee, I'll do it. What else do you have to say? ”
"The tap water is small from time to time, and you ask, is it the water company's problem, or whatever. I'm going to get to the point, I'm going to invite a friend to tea tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, and you, Flick, will prepare afternoon tea for us. ”
"I'd love to do it."
"Thank you."
Li Kangping handed Frick a hundred dollars in cash, thought about it, and added twenty.
The professional ethics and quality of the housekeeper is how much money to collect and how much to do.
Frick takes the money and leaves, and he'll get the $120 business done.
Li Kangping likes to deal with professional housekeepers like Frick, I pay, you do things, don't ask too much, don't grind.
Lying on the bed, Li Kangping read the novel, "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" written by John Tolkien.
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is an epic poem that tells the legendary story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
Tolkien took the epic version of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and created a novel version of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight".
Tolkien was not a great writer at this time, he was a lecturer at the University of Leeds, and writing was purely a hobby.
Although Tolkien was a good storyteller, the novel version of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight did not sell well in the United States.
Gawain clenched the giant axe in both hands and raised it high...... Where the axe hits, the flesh and skin are immediately split in half...... The people saw the head rolling under their feet, and blood spurted out of their torsos, splattering the green clothes......"
Li Kangping flipped through dozens of pages and fell asleep soundly.
It's dawn, Sunday. Flick did what his employer asked, and Lee walked to the Columbia lab.
"Alan, how much is it?" Li Kangping asked.
Allen, who looked tired, said: "48 volts, A and B are both 1.15. ”
"This is good news, it gradually approximates the theoretical value according to certain laws." Li Kangping said happily.
Mark replaced Allen in a shift, and Li Kangping stayed in the lab until noon, and then left.
Frick prepares afternoon tea, and Jennifer arrives as promised.
Jennifer wore a pale green afternoon outfit, and Li Kangping wore casual wear in bloomers and casual clothes.
"Nice apartment, really nice."
Jennifer, a first-time visitor, looked here and there, and it seemed like she liked the apartment.
"Jennifer, look at this book, I recommend you check it out."
"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, John Tolkien? Who is he? ”
"He is a British writer who has just entered the literary world, he is not very famous, but he is very good at writing stories."
"Let me take a good look. "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" is an English epic poem that Mr. Tolkien adapted into a fiction story. Overall, it's based on legends, but I prefer realistic novels, like Tarkington's The Great Ann Basson. ”
Jennifer doesn't necessarily make a good writer, after all, she only wrote two chapters of fiction---- no one has ever seen these two chapters of fiction.
Jennifer is an excellent reader, she has read a lot of literature and is able to come up with some insightful literary criticism.
"'The Great Ambasons' is a bestseller in the United States, but it is too popular to be favored by the Nobel Prize in Literature." Jennifer said.
"The supreme literary award, the huge bestseller income, if you can only choose one of them, Jennifer, which one will you choose?"
"It's a real headache for me, I want to choose, can I?"
"Oh, greedy Jennifer."
Li Kangping put down the book, and he kissed Jennifer's sweet forehead, sweet nose, and sweet lips.
Jennifer enjoyed it all and she responded adequately.
Suddenly, Li Kangping picked up Jennifer.
"Oh!"
Jennifer exclaimed.
"Honey, let's go to the bedroom."
"Wait!"
Jennifer struggled back to the ground, her arms folded in a position that seemed to bring a sense of security.
Li Kangping wondered: "My dear, did I do something wrong?" ”
"Kangping, I'm not the kind of girl you think I am."
"Excuse me?"
"Kangping, I can kiss you, I can have intimate acts with you, but I can't sleep with you before getting married."
"Isn't it?"
Li Kangping was stunned.
"That's right, I'm not going to sleep with any guy before I get married!" Jennifer exclaimed.
"Isn't it?"
Li Kangping was shocked again, he asked: "We only kissed twice, and you asked me to propose to you?" Jennifer, are your rules religious? ”
"Komping, I like you, but, but, but I can't do that...... At least not yet. Jennifer said stubbornly.
Oh yes, Jennifer isn't the kind of girl who can sleep with you after just three hours of knowing each other, Jennifer is a good girl.
Li Kangping smiled awkwardly, damn it, what the hell is this?
"Kangping, let's calm down for a while, okay?"
"No problem, I'll send you back."
Li Kangping, who calmed down, drove Jennifer away, and his relationship with Jennifer had a disagreement over the issue of getting laid, he was still Jennifer's president, and Jennifer still performed the duties of the president's secretary.
