Chapter 26
Leon hurriedly raised his hands: “No comment!”
After finishing speaking, he exclaimed at Lewis: “Yes, yes, my brother has unique eyesight!”
Lewis snorted proudly. , Temporarily satisfied with his attitude.
But at this moment, Laura was not calm. It turned out that this Leon was Lewis’s friend. Then she was seen by him just now, and she was
wearing the same shoes. Fortunately, Leon didn’t seem to notice.
“Take care of her in the future!” Lewis said to Leon, “She is Li Xiaofei, remember?”
“Remember! Sister Xiaofei , hello!” Leon stretched out a harmless smile. He shot it out: “It’s nice to meet you!”
Laura was about to reach out, when the man’s hand in front of him was opened.
Lewis disgusted and said: “My woman’s hand, you can’t touch it!”
“Big brother , you can’t shake your hand? Would you like to be so authoritarian?!” Leon collapsed.
Laura smiled at him: “It’s nice to meet you.” The rigid smile and flat voice were very different from those who had just come on stage to sing.
“After get off work, I will let the driver pick you up and eat together.” Lewis said, as if the emperor had returned to the palace, he turned and left without any muddle.
“Oh, good.” Laura said dumbly.
As soon as she returned to her seat, a colleague was gossiping: “Who were the two handsome guys just now?”
Laura shook his head: “I don’t know, I went out and they just casually asked a few words about the sea election, probably the person in charge of the company! “
Oh–” It’s a pity for my colleagues, but because there is too much work, they focus on organizing information.
Laura thought about it, even if Leon met her, it didn’t matter, anyway, they didn’t have the slightest intersection. If the contract was then signed, she would say that she didn’t plan to enter the showbiz.
Moreover, such a playboy is estimated to be enthusiastic for two days.
It’s just that Spencer
did not expect that Spencer would recognize herself. Laura had a headache and decided to stop her. Anyway, she just didn’t admit it and didn’t take off her mask in front of Spencer.
Immediately after get off work, Laura received a call from Assistant Lewis, saying that she would be waiting for her on the street opposite the audition site.
Thanks to knowing to keep a low profile, when Laura passed by, he was still dazzled by a red sports car.
She opened the back seat door, and the other party said that Mr. Huo was already on his way to the revolving restaurant.
Laura still visited the revolving restaurant in Cohasset many years ago during the Chinese New Year.
At this moment, when I came back to this restaurant, I found that looking out from the floor-to-ceiling windows, the scenery was completely different from before.
When she sat down, Lewis also arrived.
He sat across from her and handed her the menu very gently.
Laura ordered two of her favorites, one meat and the other vegetarian. Then he returned the menu to Lewis: “Mr. Huo, I don’t know what you like, you can order the rest!”
“It’s not working time, don’t need to be honored.” Lewis said and ordered a few dishes. And desserts.
Laura heard that there was a mango in it, which was her least favorite, but she didn’t say anything.
The restaurant served food very quickly, and Laura kept thinking about Li Dahai’s one million, so she was entangled in how to speak.
“Why don’t you eat it?” Lewis couldn’t help frowning when he saw Laura concentrating on traveling outside the sky.
“Oh, eat right away!” Laura smiled at him, casually took a bite of the dish, raised her eyes and asked Lewis: “Huo, you are looking for me today.”
He said, “My birthday party next week, You have to accompany me.”
“Oh.” Laura pointed to herself: “Don’t you think it would be a shame to take me out?”
Lewis raised his eyebrows deeply, his tone of voice revealed an unbelievable domineering tone: “I say good is good, no one dares to question anything!”
Okay,
Laura was silent, and decided to tell what he had been brewing: “Actually, I have something to do today, and I want to ask you for help.” The
first time I asked someone to borrow money, and once I borrowed one million, Laura felt that the whole tongue is not his own.
“Say!” Lewis saw that Laura had never eaten desserts with mangoes, thinking she was too far away to reach, so he pushed her over.
“Huo always, I eat mango” Laura to do: “allergic.”
“Troublesome woman” Lewis deep saying, let the waiter for a another dessert, and then said: “!? In the end what happened.”
“My Brother, he went out to pull the goods a few days ago and broke things for others, so he lost money.” Laura squeezed the chopsticks off in her hand: “He can’t take out so much, so can you lend me some? Help him solve this problem, and then pay you in installments?”
She thought about it, even if she can win the first prize in the’challenge singer’ this time, she can only pay Lewis a sum each time in order not to reveal her identity. , Least he suspect that her money came from wrong.
“How much?” Lewis said.
“One million.” Laura lowered her head and bit her lip, only feeling that she had never been so embarrassed.
One million is nothing to him, but
in a high position, suspicion is always heavier than others. Lewis squinted his eyes and said, “Now he is the one who has brought the goods to look for you. In the future, if there are other more serious things that come to you, what should you do?”
Laura anxiously: “Mr. Huo, My eldest brother is very good to me, he”
“He is good to you, but has nothing to do with me.” He said lightly.
Laura breathed, yeah, he is just her contract boyfriend, so what obligation does he have to take care of her?
After all, she still thinks too much.
However, Li Dahai is really in a hurry. The singer’s selection is still two weeks away. How can she delay the ten days?
Laura sighed in her heart, but still raised her eyes to look at Lewis and smiled at him: “I’m sorry, I was too much just now, Huo, I’m sorry, just assume I haven’t said it.”
Lewis looked at the opposite woman obviously. Lost appearance, her clear eyes were full of melancholy expressions, his heart suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and he couldn’t help blurting out: “However, I can help you, just hope you understand that you can help him at most once.”
As if desperate. Suddenly seeing the light, Laura suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Lewis in surprise.
He was delighted by the look in her eyes, and said: “Tell me the card number and I will transfer it to you immediately.”
His work efficiency is really
easy, Laura’s lips are relaxed, and she quickly took out her card from the bag and handed it over to Lewis.
Lewis took the cell phone and operated it quickly for ten seconds. Suddenly, Laura’s cell phone rang a reminder.
When she unlocked it, she saw a text message from the bank, her account income was one million yuan, and the current balance was 1,002,729.6 yuan.
“Received!” Laura handed the phone screen to Lewis: “Mr. Huo, I must find a way to return it to you as soon as possible!”
Lewis didn’t intend to collect the money at all, and his gaze swept across Laura’s screen. Frown: “Your account is only more than two thousand yuan?”
Laura was taken aback, and then nodded naturally: “Well, because I just paid three months’ rent at the beginning of the month, there is only so much left in the account, but I cook myself. It doesn’t cost much, and the salary will be paid if you return your hair.”
He suddenly regretted it. Why didn’t he transfer more points to her just now?
So he picked up the phone and pressed it a few times.
Seeing the phone ringing again, Laura suddenly looked down. She was stunned for a moment: “Mr. Huo, why did you transfer 100,000 to me just now?”
In fact, he felt that 100,000 was a little bit short .
But, after all, they had only just’friended’, and he didn’t want to find a woman who worshipped money, because that was a three-year contract.
He casually said: “Prices will rise, the company will work overtime, you can’t always buy food and cook by yourself. Transfer it to you, least you starve to death on the street.”
Cough Laura could not laugh or cry, for a long time, suffocated a sentence: “Thank you Mr. Huo, I will pay you back the money later.”
“It’s up to you.” Lewis said.
After the two had eaten, Laura was actually worried that his son would be home alone.
He has just started elementary school. Although the school is close and he can walk home by himself, the elementary school is different from the kindergarten, and I don’t know how he adapts.
However, Lewis did not seem to plan to sit for a long time. He asked her for the approximate size of the clothes and told her that he would send someone to deliver the clothes for the banquet in advance, and he would pick her up on the same day.
The two went downstairs together. Laura was going to take the subway, but Lewis said directly: “
Get on the train.” Although he didn’t have much contact, Laura knew his temper, and he had to do what he said, so she just pulled away. The door was seated.
Lewis drove here by himself. He entered the navigation and arrived at the gate of Laura’s home in a short time.
She smiled at him: “Thank Mr. Huo.” She
was about to get out of the car, but found that she had also followed down.
Laura was taken aback: “Mr. Huo, what are you?”
He looked at the dilapidated residential building, and already moved forward: “Lead the way.”
“You are going to my house?” Laura’s heart sank: “My house is messy, no Meet your identity!”
“Is there a wild man at home?!” Lewis frowned, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
“No, no!” Laura added in his heart, does the little man count?
“Then go forward!” Lewis ordered.
“Mr. Huo, my house is really messy, and I haven’t had time to pack it, or I can pack it next time, you come again?” Laura discussed.
The more she prevented him from watching, the more he doubted whether she had a wild man, so Lewis picked up the phone and rushed to Laura, “I don’t mind letting Special Assistant Shen check your house number and I will go by myself.”
“Well, I will lead the way” Laura reluctantly surrendered.
The two walked to the stairs together. Laura chopped her feet twice, but the light was not on. She turned her head to Lewis helplessly: “It is estimated that the light is broken. I will use the mobile phone torch to light it up.” As he
said, Laura turned on Mobile phone flashlight, take a picture forward. However, just when the sight was on, two mice suddenly jumped down from the corridor above, rushing towards her feet, scared her to scream, and instinctively rushed towards Lewis.
In the next second, he already stretched out his arms and took her into his arms.
