“Chit.” Sea Gu glanced at her, looked down at the time, and invited with a leap of faith, “I’ll take you to a nice place, want to go? It’s a place I’ve always dreamed of!”
He spoke with such excitement, his eyes shining brightly, that he couldn’t help but make Zoey follow suit. “We don’t speak Japanese, are you sure you won’t get lost if you go out like this?”
“Didn’t we all buy this?” Sea Gu shook the electronic thesaurus in his hand, “Besides, if you get lost, just call and have someone pick you up. Hey, are you going?”
Zoey raised her eyebrows, “Just go. Even if you lose it, you are still with you, not afraid!”
There is nothing wrong with just going for a break.
Jerry Xiao went straight back to the hotel from the hospital, and when he returned to his room Afong sent over the information, he flipped through it for a while, feeling restless and unsettled. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services.
Suddenly, no longer have the heart to work, simply dumped the file in hand, sinking steps to go out. Just one step out, and then turned back, looked at the document, before sitting down again, dialed a series of numbers.
“Feng, it’s me … you go find Secretary Baker, tell her to come over … yes, there is a document that needs to be handled by her, tell her to come over immediately!”
After the explanation, Jerry Xiao hung up the phone. Just sitting on the couch, waiting for some woman to throw herself at him.
But after waiting for a while, there was no Zoey coming. When I ran out of patience, I got a call from Feng.
“President.”
“What?”
“Secretary Baker wasn’t even in the hotel room. Called her on the phone, and there was never anyone to answer.”
The first time Feng’s words fell, Jerry Xiao’s face darkened most of the time. That stupid woman, long ago left the hotel, can’t really be lost, right?
Thinking of this possibility, his heart tightened and instructed Feng, “Go to the desk and ask to see if anyone has noticed her and ask if she has returned to the hotel.”
“Okay. I’ll be right there!”
After Feng hung up the phone, Jerry Xiao walked back and forth in the room with difficulty. But in the end, he couldn’t wait, fished over the room card and left the room.
Downstairs, in the hall, Afong had obviously finished asking questions. When he saw Jerry Xiao coming down, Feng hurriedly walked over with tight steps.
“President, I heard from the people in the lobby that Secretary Baker had come back.” Because of being an expatriate, and because of the avalanche last time, the lobby attendants remembered Zoey clearly and would never mistake her.
Jerry Xiao did not speak, only waiting for Feng to continue. Instead, he stole a glance at the president’s expression before he tentatively spoke, “I heard that Secretary Baker went out with a gentleman afterwards. The other party also seems to be a Chinese national.”
Sea Gu?
Jerry Xiao’s mind, almost subconsciously, jumped to this person. And then he thought of the words Zoey said today – “You can, Lucas Wang can, and so can Sea Gu!”
Large palms, all at once, dropped to their sides and clenched into fists.
What a joke! I was so worried that she was lost in a foreign country! Not at all! I’m afraid she forgot the way home from playing with another man!
“President, should we continue to contact Secretary Baker?” Feng clearly saw the veins bursting out of his hands, heart for Zoey could not help but wring a cold sweat.
“Call again!” A cold voice commanded.
“Yes.” Afong did not dare to be slow, and continued to dial Zoey’s phone number without any hesitation.
At this time, it was just after 7 p. m. Sea Gu took Zoey for a snack and then they went to the playground together.
The amusement park was still crowded and noisy. Everywhere is lit up with colored lights, under the night, beautiful to the extreme. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
“I’m going to play on that Ferris wheel!” Zoey pointed to the big colorful spinning wheel, since childhood is full of dreamy plot for that thing.
“No hurry, later to accompany you. First, I’ll take you to play an exciting game!” Sea Gu was so excited that he almost jumped up and down, like a child, dragging Zoey and running as fast as he could. It seems that he is already familiar with the terrain here, even without having to ask.
Zoey hadn’t done her homework before, so she followed him around like a fly on a wall. After a while, he finally stopped walking. Excitedly, he pointed to a witch’s castle and said to Zoey, “Here it is!”
This is it?
Zoey eyes dumbfounded at the witch’s castle in front of her, eyes are going to bulge out.
This is a very famous city of horror. zoey is the first time to come here, but has seen countless times in the TV introduction. This is definitely not a place for the faint of heart! Besides, now just listen to the screams inside, and the sound of the music is enough to scare the guts out, it can make people shiver …
Without saying a word, Zoey turned around and left.
collar, but was dragged by a hand, Ingram smiled cheekily and looked at her harmlessly, “You’re going in the wrong direction!”
Zoey almost cried out, clasping her hands together and looking at him pitifully, “Good man spare my life!”
“No good.” Zoey put her arms around him, “Sea Gu, you’re not a gentleman! There’s nothing romantic about it! I’m in a bad mood today, I’m out for a break, how can you bring me to this kind of place to be stimulated?”
According to the normal route of idol drama development, this time he should take himself to go round the Ferris wheel and stroll around the dream castle! Where is this?
The more scared she was, the happier Sea Gu looked. So long as a long arm, half hug her half drag. He laughed badly, “Who let you send yourself to the door? I’ve been looking at this thing for days, all afraid of death, no one is willing to accompany me. Now that I found you, I’m not dragging you along?”
Zoey was in tears. I couldn’t break free, so I had to accompany him inside. He bought two tickets without any problem, and the two followed a group of people outside the door waiting for the previous group to come out.
In about a few minutes, those people came out. One by one, they reacted differently – there was a pale face, came out straight vomiting; there were also rubbing their chests, still dazed and palpitating; there were even excited and jumping.
Zoey looked blue and white at first, but Sea Gu is more and more expectant. Looking down at her, comforting: “Do not be afraid, I am here! You just have to hold on to me for a while. Hey, if you’re really scared, I don’t mind letting you have some tofu and a hug.”
Zoey’s lips twitched. It’s already this time of the year, thanks to him still in the mood to fool around.

The castle door, finally, opened with everyone waiting eagerly. “Let’s go! Let’s go!” Sea Gu was jumping with excitement, Zoey rushed to grab his hand. Her hands were already a thin layer of sweat.
There was no turning back, Zoey had to go in with her guts and her head.
Fruity …
Amazing shows inside the dimly lit castle, endlessly.
“Ah …” Sea Gu screamed, Zoey looked back and saw a skeleton monster flying towards them. Zoey was so scared that tears almost came out of her eyes, so she left Sea Gu and ran.
“Hey … Zoey , don’t you leave me!!!”
“Ha, don’t you have a lot of guts? Go and fight him!” Zoey gloated as she watched his face pale as he was trapped by the monster, and did not offer help.
The smile has not yet stopped, only to hear Sea Gu wah wah wah, “Look behind you, look behind you …”
“Oooh …” a huge mummy with a strange scream, jumped towards her. She was so scared that she almost cried, screaming and jumped into the arms of Sea Gu. Sea Gu just broke away from the monster, a warm and soft thing to give him a hug, he was immediately beautiful heart, just short of thanking the mummy out of words.
But, so stay is not a way, only to numb the courage to set aside this, set aside that …
“Hey hey hey, see if there are any monsters ahead?” Sea Gu hides behind Zoey.
Zoey was trembling, but he pushed her in front of him, so she could only roll her eyes, “And you called me a loser, you’re just a coward!”
“Let’s be mutual.”
“But, you’re a man.” Zoey especially despised him. At a time like this, shouldn’t you show some manhood?
“Hey, don’t be silly. Men and women are equal in this society.”
Zoey’s lips twitched. Who said gender equality was used here?
“Sea Gu, you’re lame!” Once again, after he ran away screaming, Zoey was so angry that she cursed. But looking at his messy appearance, she couldn’t help but ‘pfft’ laugh out loud.
It’s really a living treasure!
After leaving the witch’s castle, Zoey was so scared that her face turned pale and she couldn’t get over it for a long time. Although Sea Gu was screaming in the room, she came out and looked as if she was fine. She was lying on the wall, laughing and gloating at her mess.
“Can you still walk?” He asked.
She was tempted to nod her head and bravely say of course she could. But, really weak legs!
Sea Gu smiled and went over to hold her up, “Take your time …”
“And you’re making fun of me!” Zoey stomped her foot. Zoey stomped her foot, and Sea Gu looked at her pouting face and thought it was cute. She didn’t dare to make fun of her anymore, so she held her up and asked, “Do you want to go on the Ferris wheel?”
“Sit down, are here, can not just be frightened and go back.”
“Well, I’ll go get my bag then. You stay here and rest for a while.” Sea Gu moved a chair for Zoey to sit down, and told her not to run away before turning around and running to the check-in room.
When I returned, Zoey mood has been stabilized a lot. Sitting there, looking at a pair of happy couples walking past from her, there is indescribable envy, and, a hint of … gloom …
What did Jerry Xiao do to her again?
Sea Gu trotted over, took the bag and shook it in front of her, “Hey, which handsome guy are you looking at, so lost in thought!”
Zoey just snapped out of it and got up to get her bag in her hand. sea gu pointed to her bag, “Your phone is getting banged up.”
Zoey froze for a moment, did not move, Sea Gu elbowed her, “Do not see who it is? Maybe it’s an emergency.”
Zoey thought about it, so she opened her bag and took out her cell phone. When I looked at the screen, it was full of phone calls from Feng, more than 10 of them! Oh my God! This is a bombardment. It’s not an emergency, is it?
As she was about to return, her phone rang frantically again. This time she didn’t dare to be slow again and rushed to pick it up.
“Hey, Assistant Feng.”
“Oh my God, Secretary Baker, you’re finally answering the phone! If you don’t answer the phone, the president will have to call the police to find someone!” Feng breathed a long sigh of relief, and his whole body relaxed.
