Grace called the clerk and ordered two drinks and three snacks at random, without asking Sophie's opinion.

Sophie pouted, aggrieved.

But then when she saw what Grace ordered, she couldn't help but grin again.

Because, Grace said that it was casually ordered, but in fact, she also took into account Sophie's taste, she has been dating Sophie for so long and knows Sophie's preferences.

The drink she ordered was Sophie's favorite caramel macchiato, her own Earl Grey milk tea, and the snacks were Sophie's favorite French Napoleon mille-feuille, plus version of the meat floss taro puree scallop and passion fruit blueberry jam filled with white chocolate cake.

Although Grace felt that Sophie around her was a little unbeautiful, and her education and knowledge were slightly poor, she was still very attentive and considerate.

"I didn't expect you to be a princess of the Nordic royal family, please forgive me for my ignorance." In the face of the stunning beauty with distinguished status, Grace was very humble and smiled charmingly, and then invited, "I don't know if it's an honor to have a cup of coffee with you alone, or go to sea together?" ”

Elena and Ava looked at each other and shrugged slightly, thinking that if only Grace hadn't been Lala, that would be a really beautiful smile, and now this smile, well, maybe charming to men, but they both shivered somewhat.

Ava, in particular, had goosebumps.

That's right, she often sleeps with her sister in her arms, but that's because the two grew up together since childhood and have a very close relationship, and it makes people feel uncomfortable when a strange woman has intentions for them.

They had messed around with Murphy, but Murphy was a cold beauty, and it was very interesting to tease Murphy, and Murphy had no such thoughts about them. When the three of them were with Zhou Qiao, the focus was on Zhou Qiao.

This Grace is different.

Ava secretly glanced at Zhou Qiao, saw Zhou Qiao's indifferent expression, and said that men are all big pigs' trotters, can this be fantasized?

Well, I'll admit, this Grace is beautiful, dressed neutrally, and has an offbeat beauty.

"We've heard of those ...... yours Gossip ......" Elena took a slight breath, adjusted her state, and asked directly, "You don't want to soak me, right?" ”

Grace was stunned for a moment, and then secretly rejoiced, did her heart say so directly? Looks like I've got a show.

Hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes." ”

Her way of chasing women is also very clumsy at times, and most of her energy is focused on her studies, and Grace looks a little silly at the moment.

Who knows, Elena shook her head and said, "No, I don't like women." I'm not bisexual either, I only like men. ”

Zhou Qiao quietly gave a thumbs up.

Grace was inevitably disappointed, stunned for a moment, and said with a regretful face: "That's a pity." ”

"What a pity? What's there to be sorry for? Elena asked.

Grace glanced at Elena and said quietly: "You look so beautiful, but you are cheap to a stinky man for nothing, isn't it a pity?" ”

"Haha, I don't think so, I'm enjoying it. I'm going to tell you a secret that I don't usually share. Elena said mysteriously.

"What's the secret?" Grace was intrigued.

Elena quietly glanced at Zhou Qiao, then lowered her voice and said, "Dr. Zhou's eight-pack abs are super good, and they are more comfortable to the touch than a woman!" "It's not like she hasn't touched a woman, her sister can touch it every day. And Murphy and Stephanie, she's touched them all.

However, where is Zhou Qiao's energy.

Zhou Qiao stroked his forehead, what kind of tiger and wolf words are these. How do you talk about it?

Fortunately, I only talked about the abs, not the more intimate parts.

Grace couldn't help but feel sick to her stomach, but she still couldn't help it, glanced at Zhou Qiao's abdominal muscles with a little surprise, and said, "I don't believe it, just like him, he also has abdominal muscles?" Or eight pieces? You're a three-year-old! ”

Elena laughed and said: "Really, Zhou Qiao is dressed thinly, undressed with meat, and has a super good figure, if you don't believe it, Joe, pick up the clothes and show her." ”

Zhou Qiao glared and said, "Don't mess around." ”

Grace also hurriedly stopped and said, "Don't, don't, I'm going to vomit just by listening to it!" She turned slightly, vomiting.

It's not pretending, but it's about to throw up.

The man's abdominal muscles, hey~, it's disgusting to death.

Elena and Ava laughed. The two looked at each other and said in their hearts, such a wonderful thing, you actually want to vomit, you really don't know the goods. If you look at the more majestic parts of Zhou Qiao's body, then you can't vomit to death.

Grace was a little reluctant and asked Ava, "What about you?" ”

Ava smiled, "Of course I also like Dr. Zhou's eight-pack abs, it's superb!" I have no interest in women at all. If there were, wouldn't my sister and I have been together a long time ago? ”

She was also afraid that Grace would entangle her, so she was also ruthless.

"Huh? You ......" Grace looked left and right, and suddenly felt that she had discovered a big secret.

Elena and Ava shrugged, it didn't matter.

They are glued to Zhou Qiao all day long, and some rumors have long been spread by people with good intentions. But they really don't care.

In the United States, people are all open-minded, like Grace is very proud, and she is still taking her girlfriend in and out of pairs, and she still teases us in front of her girlfriend. What is this behavior on our part?

In public, we have never had too much intimate contact with Zhou Qiao. At most, it's just one left and one right holding hands. None of them kissed.

Holding hands and holding arms is nothing.

Grace touched her nose with ash, and suddenly fell endlessly, and immediately pulled Sophie, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!" ”

"Ah, okay!" Sophie immediately smiled, overjoyed.

"Two beautiful ladies, your drinks and desserts ......"

At this time, the clerk brought drinks and snacks, but when the other party was leaving, the clerk didn't know what to do for a while.

Grace waved her hand: "No! ”

"That bill ......"

Grace didn't embarrass the clerk and said, "Pay directly, don't want anything, throw it in the trash!" "She's really depressed.

"Don't don't, help me pack it, I'm going to take it, thank you." Sophie still knows how to run a house, so she hurriedly asked the clerk to help pack it.

Grace swiped the card, Sophie carried a drink and a snack, and the two went out.

After walking away, Sophie laughed coquettishly while eating a delicious snack, and exclaimed, "I said a long time ago, people won't take a fancy to you." ”

Grace immediately issued an "attack": "You still dare to laugh at me? See if I don't clean you up! ”

"Don't~" Sophie shuddered slightly, but listening to the voice, she seemed to enjoy it and look forward to it.

It's just that this is a street after all, and people come and go, which is not very convenient, and Grace decides to go back to the hotel and punish Sophie well.

After Grace went back, she rolled the sheets with Sophie, and while Sophie was asleep, she secretly downloaded the short video APP and watched it with relish. When she swiped some videos of the Iris Clinic and Xue Qiao's selection, she was stunned.

"Oh my God!"

"There are so many beautiful women in the iris clinic? That Murphy and Stephanie are also so beautiful? What else is Nanako Chiba, Cherry Young? Star Taria? ”

……

After Grace fell asleep, she had a dream all night, and she was drunk and dreamed of death with a few beauties from the iris clinic.

The next day, she called a staff member of the organizing committee of the competition and asked for Zhou Qiao's phone number.

The organizing committee of the competition naturally has the contact information of the judges, and the other party asked Grace about her intentions, and Grace said that she had some medical problems and wanted to consult Zhou Qiao.

The staff admired Grace's learning spirit, so they found Zhou Qiao's phone number and reported it to her.

Grace was overjoyed and immediately took the initiative to call Zhou Qiao: "Doctor Zhou, I'm Grace." Are you convenient for calls now? ”

"Convenient. Dr. Grace, is there something wrong? Zhou Qiao was also a little surprised, he hadn't gotten up yet, and the twin girls came over one by one, and they were also very curious, wanting to hear what Grace wanted to say.

Grace said, "You said earlier that you wanted to invite me to work at the Iris Clinic, is it still valid?" ”

Zhou Qiao immediately refused and said, "It's invalid!" ”

"Why? You can't talk and don't count, huh? Grace was in a hurry.

Zhou Qiao said seriously: "You shouldn't be the beauty who fell in love with my clinic, right?" That's not going to work! ”

Elena and Ava ate and laugh on the sidelines. The two of them eavesdropped, and they also went up and down.

Grace: "I...... It's really not, I'm just admiring the name of the Iris Clinic and want to ...... Can't I just visit it? ”

"Nope." Zhou Qiao refused, thought about it, and said very seriously, "Actually, Grace, with my experience, your ...... Cognitive impairment of sexual orientation should be caused by acquired factors, should be a mental illness, and can be completely corrected. Don't worry, I respect your sexuality, but this is just a suggestion, listen to you or not. ”

"Then shut up! Litter! Grace cursed, hung up angrily, and then huffed and started throwing things.

Because, Zhou Qiao's words just now really provoked her. Garbage, smelly and filthy garbage, my father can't control me, you want to talk more?

Sophie hurriedly came over and hugged her and began to comfort her.

After some comfort, Grace finally calmed down.

"My dear, don't care what other people think, just be happy with ourselves." Sophie said.

Grace looked at Sophie and said, I'm really unhappy.

Perhaps, what you can't get is always restless.

There is a joke on the Internet, saying that it is a mother who admonishes her daughter: "Don't look for a handsome boyfriend, if you find someone who is too handsome, the other party will be dishonest." ”

The daughter disagreed: "If I find an ugly one, I will be dishonest." ”

Grace is that daughter.

……

Since the competition has ended, the award has been obtained, and something unhappy happened by Zhou Qiao, Grace and Sophie did not stay in New York for long, and soon returned to Boston Massachusetts General Hospital and devoted themselves to work.

It's just that Sophie, a girl, is not very strict-mouthed, and when she was chatting with her colleagues, she accidentally told her about the "conflict" between Grace and Zhou Qiao. Including Zhou Qiao's words of "slandering" Grace.

It just so happened that Grace's father, Dr. Albert, who was passing by, heard it.

"This Sophie ......" Dr. Albert shook his head and left.

Originally, he still felt that if he really couldn't accept Sophie, but now it seems that Sophie is really ...... The quality is too low.

"You actually say right and wrong about my daughter behind your back?" Dr. Albert already looked down on Sophie, and he couldn't help but be even more disgusted at this time.

Actually, Sophie didn't mean it, she was just tricked by her colleagues, and when she inquired about some gossip in New York, she couldn't help but say it, and she didn't mean it, but complained that Zhou Qiao was too rude. She was also very angry and felt sorry for Grace by bullying Grace like this.

However, in Dr. Albert's ears, it was very unpleasant.

In his opinion, if it is not good for his daughter and has a negative impact, it is a bad word.

"This Sophie is simply brainless, her daughter is with her, and sooner or later she will be killed!"

Dr. Albert returned to his office, lit a cigarette, and went to the window to take a deep breath, staring at the clear blue sky in a daze.

He can accept that someone else's daughter is Lala.

Last year, I also participated in a friend's same-sex marriage and sent gifts and blessings.

However, I just can't accept that my daughter is Lala.

He really hoped that, as Dr. Zhou said, it would be good if it was fake.

……

At the same time, Zhou Qiao and her twin sisters also came to Boston.

New York is actually relatively close to Boston, less than 300 kilometers, and New York is more than 4,000 kilometers away from San Francisco.

Zhou Qiao came to Harvard University to communicate with colleagues at the institute.

The twin sisters had never been here before, and they were also very interested, and asked Zhou Qiao to take them to the sea by boat later.

They had heard Murphy and Stephanie say that they sailed along the Charles River with Zhou Qiao, the scenery was very good, and they could see big whales.

In particular, there are many fat wild ducks on the Charles River, and Zhou Qiao has dozens of recipes for cooking these wild ducks. It's fascinating to listen to.

After communicating with colleagues, when I took my twin sisters to visit Harvard Garden, suddenly, a middle-aged man saw them and came over to say hello.

"Hi, Dr. Zhou, I didn't expect such a coincidence." The man was slightly surprised and waved and ran over.

"You are ......" Zhou Qiao didn't know each other.

"I'm Dr. Albert."

"Oh, I remembered, sorry, I didn't recognize it before." Zhou Qiao suddenly stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.

At an academic exchange meeting before, Zhou Qiao and Dr. Albert had a relationship, but because Zhou Qiao was too busy at that time, he did not go to the scene in person, but made a report to share through video connection.

"Director Albert of the Massachusetts General Heart Center, right? If I'm right, the winner of this tournament is your daughter Grace. Congratulations, congratulations! ”

"Thank you," Dr. Albert shook hands with Zhou Qiao, thought about it, and said, "Your teacher, Academician Domitry, also worked at the Massachusetts General Hospital when he was young, and successively served as the director of the heart center, the director of the tumor center, and the vice president of the hospital. ”

A pleasantry of greetings narrowed the distance.

Dr. Albert is here because he is not only the director of the Heart Center at the Massachusetts General Hospital of Harvard Medical School, but also a senior professor at Harvard Medical School.

An Asian like Zhou Qiao, with a pair of beautiful twin beauties by his side, was very conspicuous in the crowd, and Dr. Albert had just come out of a corridor and saw it at a glance.

"I heard that Grace is a little disrespectful to you, I apologize to you for this, Grace is spoiled by me, don't take it personally." Dr. Albert heard Sophie say that Grace was so angry that she scolded Zhou Qiao on the phone for being garbage.

That's really rude.

Fortunately, it is not during the competition, if it is a competition, it is estimated that it annoys Zhou Qiao, the judge, and will give a low score.

Zhou Qiao smiled: "Actually, I have something wrong, I should apologize." ”

"Dr. Zhou is really personable, do you have time to have a cup of coffee together?" Dr. Albert muttered, "I would like to discuss with you about the little girl's condition. ”

The reason why he ran over to see Zhou Qiao was because he had that residual hope.

Zhou Qiao is famous, has created many miracles, and is good at many fields, such a top-notch, legendary figure, if he has different views and opinions on Grace's "condition", perhaps, it is really a ray of light.

Although Zhou Qiao is relatively young, for geniuses, age is not an issue.

Zhou Qiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's my honor!" ”

So, Dr. Albert invited Zhou Qiao and his twin sisters to go to a café on the campus of Harvard University together, picked a corner, and the four of them chatted while drinking coffee.

This is actually the time of class in the morning, and many students have classes, so the café is not as busy as in the evening.

Otherwise, when the "golden hour" comes, you can't find a place to sit, and you have to queue up to buy coffee.

"Doctor Zhou, is my daughter's condition really fake, and there is any hope for correction?" Dr. Albert asked.

Zhou Qiao pondered for a moment, and then said, "High probability." However, it still needs to be tested, and the other is this disease, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and it takes time to completely correct it, and you can't rush it. ”

"Is there really a way?" Dr. Albert was slightly excited, but he didn't show it, and asked quietly.

Zhou Qiao said: "I have a bit of an idea, well, you can take thirty-six steps and slowly and imperceptibly change." ”

So, in Dr. Albert's expectant eyes and attentive listening, Zhou Qiao briefly talked about his treatment plan.

After chatting for more than an hour, two cups of coffee were refilled, and Dr. Albert praised Zhou Qiao's professionalism, saying that he was very relieved, confident, and willing to try.

In the end, the negotiated medical fee was $500,000.

Dr. Albert felt that it was not expensive, and if it could really be cured, the money would not be a problem.

With Zhou Qiao's current fame, it is also worth this price.

"It's just that I still have to discuss this matter with my daughter." Dr. Albert wanted to take his daughter to the doctor, but now that her daughter is older, she is not as easy to control as she was when she was a child.

Still have to discuss, Dr. Albert smiled bitterly, presumably, and it was inevitable that there would be a quarrel.

Alas, it's really a headache, it hurts the relationship between father and daughter.

As for Dr. Albert's wife, Grace's mother is also a loving mother who spoils her daughter, and there is no way to take her daughter. When I was a child, I disciplined myself by the strict Dr. Albert.

But now Dr. Albert can't control his daughter.

Before leaving, the two exchanged business cards.

Zhou Qiao said: "If you are sure, you can contact me at any time." Well, for that set of diagnosis and treatment plan, I'll go back and sort it out in the evening, and I can send it to your mailbox tomorrow. ”

"Thank you, it was a great conversation."

When Dr. Albert returned to the hospital in the afternoon, he talked to his daughter, and sure enough, in the office, the father and daughter quarreled fiercely again.

Many colleagues crept over and hid outside to listen to the corner.

Subsequently, everyone discussed in private.

"Dr. Albert really broke his heart for Grace!"

"Dr. Albert still hasn't given up, Lala's situation is not a mental illness, and it can't be cured, right?"

"The director thinks that the possibility of fake sex cannot be ruled out."

"Is that Dr. Zhou really that powerful? Isn't he famous for his medical aesthetics, heart surgery, oncology surgery, neurosurgery, etc.? Why are you good at mental illness again? It can't be a money scam, right? ”

"You think too much, with Dr. Zhou's identity and status, I don't care about doing this kind of thing now. He said that there is certainty, then most of the time there is, let's wait and see. ”

"I really want to see if the Iris Clinic can create a miracle again this time!"

"If it's really corrected, oh my God, the Iris Clinic is a god-like existence again."

In the office, there was a fierce argument, and in the end, Grace gave in in helplessly.

However, she did not give in absolutely, but with the last trace of stubbornness, she raised her head and talked to her father about the conditions: "This is the last time." If it doesn't work this time, I hope you don't care about my private life in the future. Even if I marry a girl, you can't care! ”

"Okay, I don't care." Dr. Albert sighed and said in his heart, if it can't be cured again this time, it is estimated that it will be really useless, so let her go.

"Not only can't you take care of it, but you also have to send blessings!" Grace said.

Dr. Albert: "You don't want to get an inch! ”

Grace sneered: "What, don't want to bet?" That's it. ”

"Okay, I promise you!" Dr. Albert had no choice but to say yes.

"Verbal promise is not good, I want to sign a written VAM agreement with you!" Grace asked again.

Dr. Albert had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Are you still afraid that the old father will not regret it?" ”

"You just say you can't sign it, right?"

"Sign sign!" Dr. Albert really can't do anything about his daughter.

However, Grace rolled her eyes, and remembered so many beauties in the Iris Clinic, and said in her heart, since she wants to gamble, then simply make another big one, and then have a gambling agreement with Zhou Qiao.

"Father, you called Dr. Zhou over, and I will also sign a gambling agreement with him!" Grace said.

"Huh?" Dr. Albert suddenly looked embarrassed, and said to himself, this is too reluctant, right?

After all, now he has a request and wants to find Zhou Qiao to see his daughter, but his daughter makes such a request? What if the other party gets angry and doesn't take the matter?

Grace shouted: "Forget it, I'll fight it myself, if he doesn't dare to sign, then it's just right, I'm dead!" ”

"Don't, I'll invite you." Dr. Albert hurriedly stopped, saying that if you don't keep your mouth shut, it will be even worse.

After all, Dr. Albert is a person with status, and he had a pleasant communication with Zhou Qiao before, and he spoke more politely and tactfully, which would not make people so unacceptable.

So, Dr. Albert called Zhou Qiao and tactfully conveyed his daughter's unreasonable request.

"Doctor Zhou, my daughter is spoiled by me, and it makes you smile."

As Dr. Albert said this, Grace bared her teeth and claws on the sidelines, trying to correct her father's bad wording.

Dr. Albert pressed his hand again and again, motioning for her to shut up.
