Chapter 504 The Body Is More Honest than the Mouth
No matter how tragic things happen, the living still have to continue to live. After the funeral, in order to maintain the family business, Morena needs to marry a local food giant family.
This after-holiday party was her last time in California, and then she was going back to Tennessee to marry a man she had met twice as a child.
"This sounds worse than the Republic of China drama." Li Zitao complained helplessly.
"Now that you know, I believe she doesn't need to worry." Joey still looked at him with an indifferent expression, stood up with the form on the table, and planned to continue today's work.
"Let's have dinner together before the holiday, and I'll pick you up then." Without giving her a chance to refuse, Li Zitao left first, leaving Joey cursing softly in the room.
During the 'final exam' period, everything was calm, except for being teased by little Mary occasionally at home, accompanying her to the bar in the middle of the night, dancing to get drunk, and teasing the handsome bartender by the way.
But in Li Zitao's view, the bartender who feels good about himself is more like a little mouse held in the palm of a little fox.
Every time little Mary would give him some hints, but he didn't even let him touch her hands, but it made him feel that he was about to win the princess's heart.
But this illusion soon ended, because a new suitor appeared, an editor named Wise, currently working for RKO, his tone was full of passion, talking about other ideals, his vision for the film, let Li Zitao was surprised.
So the poor handsome bartender Paul just got kicked, I hope he can recover.
"Mary, feelings are not for play. If you just get what you need, you have to make it clear, otherwise you will be the one who gets hurt one day."
On the way home again, Li Zitao wanted to make it clear to little Mary that she was playing with fire now, and that the craziest men were often emotionally injured, so she could easily put herself in danger.
"Everyone takes what they need, just like you and Ava, or Tia." Little Mary tapped her toes on the ground, bouncing and saying: "And that flight attendant... Lily, right?"
"We're talking about you." Li Zitao looked at her speechlessly. Could this girl be too smart? Yanyan should be back in a few days, and she should really be allowed to deal with this little fox.
"Aren't you tired of dating so many women at the same time? And those female celebrities mentioned in the newspaper, are they all true?" Little Mary brought the topic back.
"Let's talk about these issues another day. I have to hand in the project tomorrow, that's all." Li Zitao quickened his pace and walked towards the house. Even if the whole world knew about this kind of thing, he had to deny it categorically.
Looking at Li Zitao's back, little Mary jumped up and down, her eyes narrowed into slits with a smile, and she happily followed behind under the escort of the bodyguards.
The next day, Li Zitao went to school without even eating breakfast, so as not to ask little Mary at the dinner table. After handing in his homework, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Regarding the matter of Morena, he has asked someone to investigate, and he will talk to her in detail at Conswilliam's holiday party later.
Now he has to go on a date with Joy first, and if she keeps calm like this, it will really be a fire.
The more Joey showed indifference and resistance to his identity, the more interested he was. As for whether he wanted to play hard to get, he had his own judgment.
"Rocky, do you have any plans for the holiday?" Li Zitao changed into the blue suit he had prepared in the dormitory, and stood in front of the standing mirror and looked at it.
"Here, or go to New York." Rocky packed his clothes in the suitcase.
"do what?"
"Of course it's work. I need to earn tuition and living expenses for the next semester." The family will pay for him, and the scholarship will be part of it, but the rest needs to be figured out by Rocky himself.
"Why don't you stay at McDonald's and continue working?" Li Zitao planned to help him, but he couldn't make it too obvious.
Once the interests are involved between friends, or become a superior-subordinate relationship, the sudden change of identity will make it difficult for people to adapt. In this case, it is easy to turn their faces.
After finally making a good friend, he didn't want the other person to feel that he was being given alms.
"McDonald's part-time jobs are too short, and a lot of time will be vacated every day, and long-term workers give priority to recruiting unemployed people. I need a full-time job."
The daily part-time money is not enough for him to fill the vacancy, and McDonald’s does not provide accommodation, so he needs to find another house to live in, unless he stays in Los Angeles, but the money is still a lot worse, and he needs another job after all the calculations.
"Do you know McDonald's Kingdom Paradise store?" Li Zitao straightened his neckline and continued, "Golden Arch is self-operated. I can recommend you to go to Angel Paradise for sales planning. Whether you can pass the test depends on your own."
"Brother...Thank you for your kindness, I am willing to try." Rocky looked at him gratefully, it was already very lucky for him to have a chance.
"Wait." Li Zitao came to the desk, tore off a piece of paper from the notebook, wrote down the address, signed his name, and handed it to him: "You give this to the store manager, and he will give you a chance."
"Okay, after I get paid, I'll treat you to dinner." Rocky patted him on the shoulder, blushing with excitement.
"I'll kill you hard, haha, let's go first." Helping Rocky get the job done, Li Zitao walked out in a happy mood.
He drove his F931 straight to the girls' dormitory. Today, Joey was wearing a lavender pleated skirt and light makeup on his face, which seemed to be well-groomed.
Women, the mouth is never as honest as the body.
He jumped out of the car and opened the co-pilot's door, asked Joey to get in the car and closed the door, and then he went around the front of the car and got in the car again, and drove away from the school.
"Do you want to eat anything?" Li Zitao smiled flatteringly on the way, and Joey rolled his eyes.
"The Italian food is ready. The Brera restaurant in the sixth street is very famous." Seeing that she didn't reply, Li Zitao said normally, as if Joey asked him for it and he gave the answer.
Another roll of the eyes made Li Zitao feel happy. This woman is quite arrogant. The best way to deal with this kind of situation is to get drunk and give encouragement on the bed. Everything will work. .
20 minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of the restaurant. Looking through the transparent glass window, it was full of people. It seemed that what he said was true.
After handing over the car keys to the waiter, the two walked into the restaurant. After Joey handed the bag to the waiter, someone led them to a small compartment deep in the restaurant.
It is said to be a compartment, but it is actually a corner, with hollow mahogany partitions on both sides, which can block some eyes if you don't look closely.
"Sitting here, are you afraid of being discovered?" Joey said sharply to him as soon as he sat down.
"It's quiet here." Li Zitao looked at the dishes recommended today, finished speaking casually, and pointed to a few signature dishes for the waiter to record.
"Aren't all men like this? They don't blink their eyes when they lie, just like the real one." Joey still clung on, everyone could hear the sarcasm in his tone, and the waiter looked directly at the menu beside him. , only when you don't have ears.
Some gossip can be listened to and passed on casually, and some gossip is better to forget that one has eyes, ears and mouth.
