Chapter 21 Refuge
On the fourth day of treatment, when Christine was about to leave the house, she told Zhen Fan that the director was in a hurry and she was going back to the set. She also asked Zhen Fan if there was any way to use it for later treatment.
"In fact, these four days are enough. One week is just a conservative estimate. It seems that you are recovering very well now, so... don't worry, you will still sleep well in the future, but I suggest that you better not stay up late Already!" Zhen Fan gave a very pertinent suggestion.
"Okay, I'll listen to the doctor!"
Christine raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, walked to the door, opened her hands, and embraced Zhen Fan proactively.
"Goodbye, Zhen, I will be back when I finish filming!"
"Hey!" With a sound, a bright red lip mark was left on Zhen Fan's face, accompanied by her crisp and happy laughter, Christine jumped and walked towards her car as if dancing.
"Goodbye, Christine!"
Christine was already sitting in the cab, watched Zhen Fan come out and waved to her, then raised his hand and blew a kiss before driving away with a smile on his face.
This girl has a very cheerful personality. If she is not troubled by nightmares, her original personality will bloom, making people feel very comfortable and seductive. At least she wears different styles of clothes every day, which is a kind of pleasing beauty when she wears them.
After sending Christine away, Zhen Fan was really free. Before he got the medical qualification certificate, he had no way to do things. He couldn't find a job in this month!
But Annie's family had to prepare for the trip to Yosemite National Park. Although it was Annie's family who came to prepare the barbecue, they had to prepare some by themselves anyway.
After thinking about it, Zhen Fan still went to the supermarket.
"Hi Kelly!"
Zhen Fan walked into the store and greeted the freckled Kelly.
"Hi, Zhen!" Kaili smiled at Zhen Fan, "By the way, there are some new products in the supermarket, which should be your favorite, and they are in the innermost and leftmost place on the east side. I heard that you like cooking. Some of them came from China, you should need them, go and have a look!"
"Thank you, I just want some!" Zhen Fan nodded at her, "Let's talk later!"
This time the items are very complete, all kinds of Chinese cooking spices and main ingredients are quite complete, which also made Zhen Fan breathe a sigh of relief!
Zhen Fan made a big purchase, full of joy, and walked over to pay.
"I didn't expect it to be so rich, thank you for reminding me!" Zhen Fan smiled happily at Kelly, "I'll treat you to coffee another day!"
"Thank you, then don't forget!"
Kelly was a little happy, and nodded at Zhen Fan. Zhen Fan still wanted to chat with this girl. At this time, the customer came to pay, Zhen Fan had to stop, nodded to Kelly, and then went out.
After Zhen Fan walked away, Kelly looked away and stared at the door in a daze.
"Hey, it's all gone, why don't you go on a date with him?"
A voice suddenly sounded beside Kelly, which startled her a lot. When she turned around, a girl with short brown hair in a cropped T-shirt and low-waisted jeans was looking at her with a smile.
"Damn it, Zooey, you scared me!"
Kelly complained.
"He's a handsome guy. I've seen it all. Although he's an oriental guy, he's very attractive. He belongs to... the kind that makes me want to sleep with him the moment I see him. By the way, what's that called—sexy, that's it!"
The girl named Zoe shook her head and sighed at Kelly.
"If you have any good ones, don't let them go. If...you don't want to, just let me have them, bring them!" Zooey stretched out her hand towards Kelly.
"Bring what?" Kelly looked puzzled.
"Handsome guy's phone number, I really like such a muscular man!" Zooey squinted her eyes, as if Zhen Fan's whole body was in front of her, waiting for her to feast on it.
"Don't talk about it, I don't have his phone number, really, I swear, I have nothing to do with him, I haven't even had coffee with him once!"
Kelly raised her right hand solemnly.
"I really don't believe it, but when he comes down next time, I'll ask him for his phone number!" Zooey turned around, "By the way, if you didn't mean anything to him, would you let my dad buy so many Chinese seasonings? Don't lie to me, my eyes can see clearly, you are moved, don't deny it, I'm leaving, goodbye!"
At this time, the phone rang, and Zooey took out the phone from the bottom pocket of her jeans.
"I know, you ask for leave for me, I will ask you tomorrow, by the way, I will not go to the school club activities tonight... Let him die, I am not easy to mess with!"
Zooey was obviously a little unhappy, talking on the phone loudly.
"Well, I just want to avoid Jack today, don't say it, goodbye, by the way, tell him for me, I will never see him again, that bastard! Playboy!"
"Click!" With a sound, Zooey turned off her phone and threw it on the counter.
"What's the matter? Jack again?"
Kelly tried to ask a question.
"Yes, that's him, the damn bastard, fooling around with other women behind my back, thinking that I don't know, and still want to make up with me? Let him eat shit by himself!"
As soon as this topic was brought up, Zooey was furious.
"Kelly, tell me that handsome guy's number, damn Jack, he has women, why can't I find a man who is more handsome than him!" Zooey gritted her teeth.
"I really don't!"
Kelly shrugged helplessly.
"But he seems to live at No. 1250, Block 12, Jiugu!" This address was told by Zhen Fan to the policeman Ren when the store was robbed, and Kelly remembered it at that time.
"That's about the same, but don't worry about the phone number, I'll get it for you! Men are all the same, there is no one who doesn't cheat when seeing a beautiful woman!" Zooey looked confident.
"Don't mess around, Zooey, he... is a good man!"
Kelly hurriedly stopped her.
"Don't be so sure, just wait and see!"|
The corners of Zoe's mouth curled up. Are there any unloving men in the world?
Zhen Fan left the shop and walked a few steps. He really wanted to hear the familiar sound of brakes, but he didn't hear it. After walking for a while, there were too many things, so he reached out and called a taxi as a last resort.
"There are so many things!"
Zhen Fan put the bought ones in the suitcase, sat in the back seat, put on his seat belt, and sighed.
"Where is sir going?"
The driver was a white man in his forties, relatively fat, with a burly build.
After Zhen Fan gave the address, the driver started the car steadily and started to drive forward. The speed was neither too fast nor too slow, completely different from Eddie's driving style.
"You... know a guy named Eddie?"
Zhen Fan tried to ask a question, completely in the form of looking for something to say. It's not that I want to inquire about anything.
"Eddie?"
"Eddie Rick!" Zhen Fan smiled, "I have ridden in his car, he is a very enthusiastic young man."
"I know him!" The driver looked at Zhen Fan in the mirror, and then said cautiously, "He can't come out recently. He provoked Jim and was taught a lesson. He is probably still recuperating at home. A lesson, by the way, have you heard of Jim?"
"I heard Eddie mention it, it seems to be the boss here!"
"Yeah, it's best not to mess with them!"
The driver kindly reminded Zhen Fan.
"I know!" Zhen Fan nodded, if he could avoid provoking him, he would try not to provoke him. Who would recruit gangsters to play when they are free? This is America where guns are rampant.
We arrived without talking much along the way. Zhen Fan got out of the car, and the driver helped him move his things to the door.
"Goodbye, buddy!" The driver took the money and said goodbye to him with a smile.
"Goodbye! Dude!" Zhen Fan replied, moved all the things in, checked that it was getting late, and prepared to make dinner.
"Tuk tuk tuk" someone knocked on the door.
"who?"
Zhen Fan frowned when he saw a young girl he didn't know through the cat's eyes. After thinking about it, he opened the door and blocked his body in the doorway.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
"Uh, sorry, I think I do need help!"
The girl was a little anxious, and looked at Zhen Fan with pleading eyes.
"Help me, someone is following me behind me, let me in, I won't stay long, when the person following me leaves, I will go, please!"
"This..." Zhen Fan looked behind her, and sure enough there was a figure moving, and it was covered by a tree trunk, and he couldn't help frowning, he didn't want to cause any trouble!
"Please!" The girl's tears were about to come out.
"Okay, but when that person leaves, you will leave immediately!"
Zhen Fan turned sideways and let the girl in! He closed the door himself.
"Sit down!" Zhen Fan pointed to the sofa and asked the girl to sit down, while he took a can of drink from the refrigerator and handed it to her.
"Thank you!" The girl seemed to be still in shock, showing a grateful expression to Zhen Fan.
"Okay, sit here, I'm going to prepare dinner, you can look out from the window of the living room, if that person leaves, you can leave by yourself!"
Zhen Fan walked into the kitchen and said his request to himself.
"Okay, I will definitely leave as soon as possible, thank you!"
The girl drank a can of beverage and seemed to be more emotionally stable. He stood up, walked a few steps in the living room, looked around, and looked around in the kitchen.
"Can you cook Chinese food?"
Is not this nonsensical? Zhen Fan couldn't help shaking his head: "Of course, if..."
"I know, I know, if that man leaves, I'll leave, but...he's still there, isn't he?"
The girl looked at the window, again with that worried tone.
