“Your well-connected mentor Kewin Gu, idol joker, and an identity you don’t know, the Gu family and the Qi Family are actually brothers-in-law.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes blushed sarcastically, “What did you say?”
Siblings?
What about the relationship between Kewin Gu and Frida Qi?
The brain exploded with a bang, countless fragments of memories came out, making her face gradually tended to look ugly.
John Lu said lightly: “Gu family in Kyoto, and Gu’s base is far more than a Qi, so the relationship between these two families is not as good as the general relatives, the media has not reported it in a big way, I also just know.”
Kewin Gu and Frida Qi are cousins.
Phoebe Barnes is still a little unperturbed, then he must know Nancy MO with his sister, and naturally he knows himself.
No wonder …
So she was wrong from the start, was it all a calculated move on his part?
John Lu looked at her with a changing expression, “What’s wrong?”
Phoebe Barnes came back to her senses, her slightly bowed head shaking slightly, her eyes extremely grave.
So he took the photos on the plane at …? Everything that happened in Iju was planned?
Was it Frida Qi’s idea, or was it his own doing?
Phoebe Barnes suddenly thought she was really stupid, from the first time she was relieved by him at the hotel, she should have understood that this was not something that an eighteen-year-old boy could think of.
In her mind, something Kemp Ross said to her at that time suddenly swept through her mind without thinking, and the darkness in her eyes suddenly became thick.
John Lu also did not know what she was thinking, just looked down and studied her expression for a while, then lazily said, “Whether he is trying to scheme you or not, I am just giving you a heads up, you really expect to treat him as a brother? Then you might as well call me a real brother and see if the master will turn around and sleep with you.”
Phoebe Barnes didn’t have the heart to joke with him, frowned, and whispered, “Thanks for reminding me.”
John Lu snorted lightly and waved his hand in disgust, “Okay, it’s okay, you can get out.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes put her heart down and lifted her little face, “Here we are, and since you’re helping me out, this meal is on me.”
I think he asked her to come out to tell her this, if she is not good attitude is too unconscionable.
The man raised his eyebrows, a hint of ridicule on his pretty face, “You can afford it?”
Phoebe Barnes opened the menu and said lightly: “Credit, anyway, the film is still in the company’s name, when the time comes, directly deducted from it, there is always a little left.”
“…”
The corner of John Lu’s mouth twitched hard, “Kemp Ross doesn’t pay you to spend money?”
“Give or not is his business, spend or not is my business, do you want to eat it or not, only this time, there is no such good opportunity in the future.”
With his consumption, invite him to eat a few times she can go bankrupt.
“Do you save him so much he knows?” John Lu mocked nonchalantly, but still picked up the menu casually and cruised through it slowly and methodically.
The woman glanced at him, “What does it matter to you if he knows? Hurry up and order.”
Spending anyone’s money is not as secure as spending your own earned money.
John Lu hooked his lips carelessly, “I can’t even hurry up, there’s still one person left.”
Phoebe Barnes was slightly stunned, “There’s another person? Who?”
“Nah, here it comes.” The man smiled lightly and pointed with his chin in the direction of the door.
Phoebe Barnes glanced back and saw a tall figure in a suit, “Mr. Shi?”
She immediately turned her head to glare at John Lu, “Did you ask me out alone without telling me?”
She thought he was really doing it to help herself and was grateful in her heart.
The man smiled with an innocent face, red lips and teeth white with a hint of smugness, “This young man did not say so, about you is the right thing, about him is idle chat, your business is finished, it is you to invite this young man to dinner.”
Phoebe Barnes was tempted to throw the water in her hand in his face.
Because of the previous incident in front of Lanzhou Hospital, she now only feels awkward when she sees Ann Shi and has a lot of guilt in her heart.
Is John Lu really unaware of this, or is it a deliberate arrangement?
“You’re here too?” Ann Shi approached and saw her with a look of surprise in her eyes that didn’t look like an act.
Phoebe Barnes stood up and forced herself to look at him and smiled awkwardly, “Shi teacher …”
Ann Shi did not know whether she forgot or hid it too well, smiled at her as gentle as ever, sat down and asked, “Are you feeling better?”
“Well … it’s better.” The guilt in her heart was almost overflowing to the mouth of her throat, and she constrainedly squeezed her fingers for a moment and slowly spoke, “Shi-sensei, I’m really sorry for what happened in front of the hospital that day ….”
Ann Shi tugged the chair, leaning back slightly, her handsome face facing her, the corners of her lips curved into a smiling arc, “Sorry? Are you saying that you said that day at the hospital entrance against your will?”
“I …” the woman was stunned, the words stuck in her throat.
Ann Shi’s face also did not change, as warm as jade, lightly looked at her, “Since it is not against the heart, and why to apologize? If you want to apologize for him, you don’t have to. I don’t think Ross would want to apologize to me.”
Phoebe Barnes was speechless again, at least she had never seen Kemp Ross humble himself to anyone, and his words, even if they were hard to hear, were usually right on the money.
The air was quiet for a few seconds.
Ann Shi looked to John Lu, “Since it’s your treat, shouldn’t I order?”
John Lu cocked his head and leaned back in his chair, lazily hooked his lips, “Today someone treats, no need for this young broke, so … you watch the point.”
Ann Shi subconsciously twisted her head to look at Phoebe Barnes.
The other party was embarrassed for a moment and quickly waved his hand, “No need to be concerned, Mr. Shi, feel free to order as I thank you for taking me to the hospital last time.”
Ann Shi did not respond, but only looked sideways at John Lu, kicked on his chair, lightly sneered, “When did you degenerate to the point that you have to let a woman treat? Even if Mr. Lu did not give you pocket money, the company’s money has been lost by you?”
John Lu lightly spread his hands, smile indifferent, “the company sold, naturally is not as big as before, can save, save, face can be worth a few money? How about this young man move to live with you, you support me.”
Ann Shi sneered, “Then I might as well have a dog, kick it when I’m not happy, and it won’t return to bite you.”
John Lu, “…”
“You’re a fucking sadist, aren’t you? What are you kicking it for?”
Ann Shi glanced at him and smiled slightly, “So what do you think I just kicked you for?”
John Lu, “…”
He gritted his teeth and sneered, “Since you are not happy, then you invite, this young man gave you the opportunity to perform.”
Phoebe Barnes, “…”
She looked at the two somewhat speechlessly, hesitantly couldn’t help but speak out, “Why don’t I go back to … you two be my guest, I’ll invite you to dinner alone next time.”
Ann Shi pushed the menu to her hand and said in a light voice, “Don’t worry about him, he’ll just smoke himself for a while. You order something you like first, not too greasy, something light.”
