Chapter 6: Reminiscence

Kate's Restaurant.

Ronnie and Catherine sat facing each other. After coming out of the police station, Ronnie had no idea of going home, and dragged Catherine to find a good restaurant to have lunch and catch up.

"Looks like you're doing a good job." Catherine looked at the environment of the restaurant and said with a smile.

This Kate's restaurant is classy. Melodious music reverberates in the restaurant, and the overall brown tone layout is very feeling. The pianist gently plays a variety of elegant songs.

"Barely able to get by." Ronny replied with a smile and poured Catherine a cup of hot tea that the waiter had just served.

"I haven't seen you for so many years, but your fiery personality hasn't changed at all." Push the teacup to Catherine.

Catherine grinned, "Thank you." ”

Catherine is not an orphan. Ronnie's acquaintance with her was a complete accident.

The director of the New York Welfare Institute where Ronnie works is Catherine's mother's sister and her aunt.

During the summer vacation, Catherine was bored at home alone and had no one to play, so the dean's aunt brought her to the orphanage and let her spend that holiday with the children in the orphanage.

Most of the children in the orphanage have low self-esteem, and they always feel inferior and insecure. Ronny was keenly aware of this, and Ronnie, who had an adult soul, often enlightened these children. came and went, and inexplicably became the "boss" of the children.

Catherine, who has a strong personality and is active, has no interest in these introverted children. On the contrary, he has a great enthusiasm for Ronnie, who has a funny language and a steady personality.

The image of Ronnie's big brother is almost indelible in Catherine's heart, and has become a strong color in her heart.

The summer vacation when Ronnie was ten years old, they became very good friends. It's just that near the end of the summer vacation, Catherine suddenly disappeared. It was as if she had appeared suddenly, silently and suddenly.

Ronnie had also approached the Dean to get Catherine's contact information. But the dean didn't give it to him, just said goodbye.

God is destined to see you again. At that time, Ronnie's whole person was not good.

I thought that this playmate like my childhood sister would be lost to everyone like this, but who knew that after eleven years, I would meet again. Or reunited in such a peculiar way.

Goodbye? It's really fate......

"After so many years, you are already a top student at New York University. Not bad! Catherine suddenly remembered what Ronnie had said when she recorded a confession at the police station, and couldn't help but say with some amazement.

"It's okay." Ronnie smiled. In his previous life, he was a doctoral student at the best university in the motherland, and even almost became the youngest academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. When he came to this universe, if he couldn't even get into New York University, his last life would be in vain.

"How? Have you made any good friends? Talking about girlfriends? Catherine asked, looking at Ronnie with a gossipy face.

"Of course there are friends. Who doesn't have a few friends? Ronnie smiled and shook his head. Girlfriend doesn't. I'm not in a hurry. Emotional problems, this kind of thing can't be rushed. ”

"That's right." Catherine asked casually. "I'll have to visit your school when I have time. I haven't been to a world-famous school yet. ”

Ronnie couldn't help but ask, "Where are you studying now?" ”

"I didn't continue studying." Catherine shook her head and said. "I stopped reading after I finished high school."

"Why?" Ronnie asked curiously. But it's not so much puzzled.

In Europe and the United States, students go to school as a process of accumulating knowledge. And no one forced them. Some students have their own goals, and they often choose not to go to college but to go into society.

This choice will be understood in Europe and the United States. It's not like the notion of some parents in Ronny's homeland. If you don't go to college, it's as if the person is dead. If you don't go to an undergraduate university, it's as if the person has no future.

Ronnie didn't like this strange concept of education, but he couldn't help it.

Having lived in the United States for more than 20 years, Ronnie still prefers his home country, but he prefers the United States in terms of educational concepts.

So, when Catherine said she didn't go to college, Ronnie wasn't that surprised. This is not uncommon in the United States.

"Some reason." Catherine smiled and did not answer. This appearance is unspeakable at first glance, and Long Ni naturally won't force her to ask her without a long look.

"By the way, is it okay to lose your backpack?" Catherine asked suddenly.

"It's fine. Uncle police has already registered a missing item notice for me. I guess it's still in the library. It doesn't matter if you can't find it, it's nothing important. "Ronny didn't really care.

A couple of books and a laptop that, although there was some material in it, were nothing important. If you lose it, you lose it, and it's nothing.

"The rich man's world is good." Catherine complained. A laptop says don't want it.

Ronny shook his head with a smirk.

Where does he have any money? The money in his bank account was all stolen money obtained by robbers over the years, and the money was laundered and deposited into the account.

Not to mention, it's normal to go out and bring back tens of thousands of thousands. Last time, those drug dealers were "generous" and contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to Ronnie!

It's not his own money, and of course Ronnie doesn't feel distressed to spend it.

"Where do you live now? I remember you said your home was in Washington, D.C. Ronnie said.

"yes, that's good. Remember where my house was. Catherine nodded with satisfaction.

"I'm here for a trip this time. I brought that backpack with me, and I don't have a place to stay yet, so I'm going to find a hotel later. ”

"That's right......" Ronny hesitated for a moment, and looked at Catherine, who had already turned into a big bumpy beauty, and the image of the little girl in his mind became more and more blurred.

"Say whatever you want, slurp." Catherine said suspiciously.

"My house is big and has a lot of empty rooms, if you don't mind, you can go and live with me." Ronnie said.

The gentleman is frank, I don't have any crooked thoughts, what are I afraid of! Yes, that's right!

"That's a good feeling!" Catherine's eyes lit up, and she stood up and reached out to pat Ronnie on the shoulder. "It's great to have a big house to live in! It saved me money for a hotel. ”

"......" Ronny looked at Catherine speechlessly. This guy said yes so easily? This is really a recognition of his character.

At this time, the waiter came over with the dishes.

Seeing this, Catherine withdrew her right hand and sat back.

"Let's eat first."
