Chapter Ninety-Five: You Really Care About Me

Rex said as he ran to his room, he needed to get his usual medicine and check it.

Locke finds Ashley, who is sitting at a dining table.

"Hey!" Rock greeted Susan and Mike, who were sitting with Ashley.

Seeing the food on Mike and Susan's plate, Ashley said, "What do you think of this roast chicken?" ”

"Very good, you prepared it?" Mike asked.

"Sort of." Ashley smiled: "It's just a Chinese roast chicken, and the taste is different from ours here." ”

"Do you know how to cook Chinese food?" Susan was a little shocked.

Many Chinese dishes are cumbersome to make, and many Americans know about them, so they basically don't make them.

Susan couldn't help but look at the German sausages on the barbecue grill, and felt pressured by her cooking skills.

Among the dishes brought by everyone, this dish called flower chicken is the most distinctive, and Locke specially asked people to go to Chinatown to order lotus leaf hemp rope.

Although it is still not as good as the authentic lotus leaf called flower chicken, it is very high-end just by looking at the packaging.

Like those brands of chocolate, they are packaged in gold foil, and at first glance it makes people think that high-end is the same principle.

With the lotus leaf wrap, the fragrance of the food will burst out after opening, which is particularly tempting.

Mike and Susan were attracted by the fragrance, and finally 'grabbed' two chicken thighs.

After tasting it just now, I felt that the chicken was soft and tender, and it had the aroma of wine, which was not at all as chai as ordinary roast chicken, and the taste was slightly sweet, which really met their taste.

This dish called flower chicken is not an orthodox practice, Locke has deliberately improved it, after all, most of the people around him eat sweet and sour.

"It's amazing, this roast chicken tastes the best I've ever tasted!" Mike chuckled and complimented, then said to Locke, "I don't know if you have found the right person for the job you told me about two days ago. ”

"Not yet." Locke said, "You are asking now, are you going to take this job?" ”

"If you haven't decided on a candidate yet." Mike nodded.

"You're welcome to join." Locke smiled and shook Mike's hand, "Can you let me know what made you change your mind?" ”

"You know, I proposed to Susan the other day, and Susan and I were planning a future wedding, and then I found out that I might need some extra income." Mike said.

Locke's security company has been set up, and a small number of bodyguards have been initially recruited, and now they are mainly responsible for the security of Ashley, Peggy, and Tang Wei.

At the same time, the training center and dormitory on the farm have also been designed and are ready to start construction.

The job that was going to be given to Mike was to oversee the plumbing of the training center on the farm, and it was a good price.

The farm is a distance from Belvedere, and it takes a lot of time to drive back and forth, so there will be very little time to spend with Susan, who has just been engaged to Susan, so he naturally does not want to do this.

Plumber wasn't a lucrative profession in the first place, and he didn't have much savings, and Mike had received a sum of money from a rich man, most of which had been turned into his wedding ring.

For Susan, she naturally wants a perfect wedding, which is the same for every girl, and Mike can only fully support this, at least not by Susan's lawyer's ex-husband.

According to the custom of the United States, when a girl gets married, her mother's family has to bear the cost of the wedding, and American families with conditions will prepare a marriage fund for their daughters.

But this is Susan's second marriage, so naturally there is no marriage fund, and the expenses of the wedding have to be prepared by Mike and Susan themselves.

After calculating the amount of money he might need, Mike realized that he would not be able to make enough money if he had done odd jobs for the surrounding residents in the past.

That's why I thought of taking this job offered by Locke.

After figuring out why, Locke smiled:

"The wedding is indeed a big event, I will definitely support it, so well, I have a French manor on the farm side, you can go and see it, if you are satisfied, it will be used as the venue for your wedding, which is my wedding gift for you."

"Manor?!" Susan and Mike were stunned.

"That's right, it covers an area of more than 6,000 square meters, which should be enough for the wedding, Ashley has a lot of photos of the manor, after you have seen it, if you are interested, you can go to the site together."

Ashley was also interested at this time, and said with a bit of ostentation: "That manor is very beautiful, the original owner specially invited a French designer to design it, and I have a room there......"

With that, Susan also became very interested and began to discuss it with Ashley.

"Wow, that's ......" Mike happily patted Locke on the shoulder, "Thank you so much." ”

"It's nothing." Locke laughed, "I know you're a nice guy, Susan is still Peggy's temporary guardian, and I'm happy to be able to help in any way I can." ”

After a simple moment, the big problem was solved, Mike was in a good mood, and the atmosphere of chatting was also up.

The whole party was lively and lasted until about eight o'clock, when Locke left with Ashley.

The next day, Rock and Peggy drove to school, and on the way, Rock suddenly said to Peggy, "I feel like something is wrong with Ashley lately." ”

"What's wrong?"

"When I came back from the community dinner, she asked me if I would like her forever." "It's not very good for her character, she's always been pretty confident in herself," Locke said. ”

"How did you answer?" Peggy suddenly looked interested.

"Of course I won't let her go unless she wants to go herself." Locke frowned, "You did it." ”

"What did I do?" Peggy rolled her eyes and said with a smile.

"You're in PUA Ashley." Locke said with great certainty: "I didn't pay attention to it before, but I can feel it when I think back to what I heard occasionally, the conversation between you and Ashley." ”

"Don't you like it?" Peggy looked at Locke with a smile: "You don't have to worry about what problems happen to her because of your attention, and you don't have to bother to comfort her, she will obediently stay by your side." ”

"I'm really very careful, so I made it clear from the beginning, and I wouldn't use that kind of means." Locke's tone was serious: "I've also studied psychology, but I wouldn't do this to the people around me. ”

"It's a kind of counseling at best." Peggy looked at Locke and said, "I didn't distort her thoughts, but she had such thoughts in her heart, so I channeled them, and the results were good, and everyone would be very happy." ”

"Then I'll tell you now, don't do it." Locke emphasized.

Seeing Locke say this, Peggy pouted, "I'm not here for you." ”

"There's no need." "I don't want you to get used to doing this, it's not a good thing, especially for the people around you," Locke said. ”

"Looks like you really care about me." Peggy's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said with great certainty: "If not, you wouldn't have thought of deliberately admonishing me." ”

"I've never denied it." Locke's tone was calm: "Your talent is very high, it seems that some of the things that I originally planned to tell you little by little in the future have to be advanced." ”

"You're going to be my godfather?!" Peggy smiled: "Then what kind of person do you like me to be?" ”

"I just don't want you to go down the wrong path," Locke stretched out his hand and rubbed Peggy's head: "The rest depends on what you like, there's nothing wrong with being naughty, as long as you master it." ”

"Mastery? So how do you judge it? Peggy looked at Locke.

"I'll teach you slowly." Locke left the phrase.

For a genius girl like Peggy, precociousness is inevitable, and at this time, her three views have begun to gradually take shape, and Locke can only think about it.

After all, such a genius has enough ability to do many very dangerous things, and he doesn't want Peggy to form any villain mentality, and Locke will definitely have a headache when the time comes.

The average order has just arrived at 461, and it is estimated that I am expected to get full attendance if I work hard, and reach my basic goal of hitting the street.
