Soon after returning to Dallas, Locke's life began to take place as he began to study himself in college subjects, including chemistry, psychobiology, psychology, and so on, in addition to mathematics and physics.

He will not study these subjects specifically in the future when he goes to university, and he has already decided to major in mathematics and physics in college.

Learning these is mainly to enrich one's own knowledge reserves, with Locke's current IQ, even if there is no one to guide him, as long as he reads enough books, he will have knowledge that will not be worse than those specialized doctors, or even surpass.

Rock participated in every game of the school baseball team, but the ordinary training was pushed away, and with him as a pitcher, the school's baseball team also made a name for itself in Texas, and even many professional baseball teams came to the door and invited him to join.

Rock turned down these invitations, after all, the route he arranged for himself was not to become a sports star.

This year's math Olympiad was held in Los Angeles, and like last year, Locke's team won a championship medal, and after the competition, Locke did not return to Dallas with the school team, intending to spend a few more days in Los Angeles as Christmas approached.

The one who invited Locke to stay was Jennifer, who went to college in Los Angeles, and after hearing that Locke had come to Los Angeles, she invited Locke to ride the rocket with her.

The Christmas holiday in the United States varies slightly from state to state, but most of them are from December 22nd to January 5th, and many people like to take their annual leave together.

Locke has been living at Jennifer's house these days, and she got an internship job at a company in Los Angeles through her senior sister's introduction, and the income is much better than working in a restaurant.

For the convenience of work and life, Jennifer rented a single apartment near the school, where Locke lived until Christmas these days.

Thousands of miles away from her family, usually busy with studying, the internship job salary is good, and it is also related to the company's evaluation, she wants to take the opportunity to build a good relationship, and she has the opportunity to join the company after graduation, so she did not choose to return to Texas.

Jennifer's father originally promised to come over to spend Christmas with her, but he didn't expect to receive a job temporarily, which was a job for an old customer who was in a hurry for 100,000 yuan, and the price was tripled, so he could only miss the appointment.

Disappointed, Jennifer invites Rock to stay in Los Angeles to spend Christmas with her.

"I know Dad, Locke happened to be in Los Angeles for the game, I invited him to stay with me for a few days, do you need four more days over there, and it really won't be in time for Christmas Eve.

It's okay, I'll be able to work with Locke, and you can pay more attention to your body when you work, so you don't have to rush too much......"

When Jennifer hung up the phone, Locke said, "He's coming over next week?" ”

Jennifer nodded: "Yes, the money is not taken for nothing, Amy's father only helped me pay for one year's tuition, and I have to figure out the second year's tuition." ”

opened her mouth, Locke finally didn't say anything to help her pay for her tuition, there are still some taboos on this topic, especially between friends, Jennifer doesn't speak, and Locke's initiative to mention it is likely to hurt Jennifer's feelings.

He could only smile at this time, got up from the sofa and rubbed her head: "Okay, can you eat?" ”

Speaking of which, Jennifer's mood finally improved, living with Locke in the past few days, she can be regarded as seeing Locke's cooking skills, which are much stronger than what she does herself, especially many Dongguo specialties.

"What do you think of the roast chicken I made yesterday."

Thinking back to the taste of roast chicken yesterday, Jennifer nodded again and again: "It's delicious, we still eat this today?" ”

"I've changed my approach, and today it's my exclusive honey-glazed roast chicken."

"But I think yesterday was great!"

"Did I have a great night?"

Jennifer gave Locke a roll of the eyes, Locke tossed her every day in the past few days, so that when she went to the internship company every morning, she had some weak legs, and many colleagues thought that she was too tired, but her face was ruddy and her complexion was very good.

When Locke got the honey-glazed roast chicken out, Jennifer swallowed like crazy, and the sweet aroma was mixed with the smell of meat, which was so wonderful.

Locke's so-called exclusive honey-glazed roast chicken is actually chicken made with barbecued pork sauce, and the sweet aroma wafting from the bright red roast chicken is absolutely drooling.

"Well, the taste is okay, but the chicken breast is still a little firewood here, don't do it all together next time, the requirements for heat and technology are too high."

Locke, who has more than half of his intermediate cooking experience, commented on his craftsmanship and was not particularly satisfied.

Jennifer ignored him, holding the pistol leg was a burst of wild gnawing, and she ate a third of the amount alone, which was much more than the standard compared to her previous meals.

After Jennifer finished eating, she complained in front of Locke that it was too delicious, and it wouldn't be long before she became fat.

Glancing at Jennifer, who was focused on the boring soap opera on TV, Locke said in his heart Wait for you to digest it for a while, I will pull you to do exercise, which will definitely make you consume all the calories you eat.

Looking at the performance on TV, Jennifer suddenly sighed, in fact, she had thought about being a star before, and she was also confident that her appearance and figure were stronger than the actors on TV.

But recently, during an internship at the company, she met a senior female executive of the company, who seemed to take care of her, so she wondered if she could also work in finance.

Young people at this age, most of their minds are uncertain, listening to Jennifer's story, Locke didn't comment much, in fact, in his opinion, with Jennifer's mathematical talent, it is estimated that he will not be able to become an elite in playing finance in this life.

However, she is still young and wants to try this path, no one can stop it, and he is not qualified to point fingers at this kind of topic involving life choices and future planning, at most he can suggest it.

Locke had also considered taking the financial route before, and he was no stranger to it, but based on what he knew, he put forward some suggestions.

After listening to Locke, Jennifer realized that it was not easy to take this road, and after thinking about it, she was unwilling to give up, so she could only put it aside and said:

"By the way, the company is going to hold an internal drinking party on Christmas Eve, and I will also participate in it then, do you want to come and see it too."

"No problem." Locke agreed, he guessed that Jennifer, as an intern, could not be officially invited, and in the past, she was mostly responsible for serving dishes and delivering wine.

He didn't say that, and he hadn't seen Jennifer for months, and since Jennifer and the others graduated, Locke had two girls as friends to play with in his free time, but they were a little less interesting than Jennifer.

I haven't seen him for a while, and Locke still misses it very much, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed in Los Angeles.
