It was really just a simple nap. Allen Peterson’s fatigue had not completely dissipated, and the first ray of sunshine in the morning had already shone on his face.
After wiping his face, Allen Peterson walked out of bed without waking Ava Smith.
On the sofa on the first floor, Chu Xiuzhu is swallowing a red cigarette. From the ashtray on the table, he hasn’t slept all night.
“Uncle, what’s the matter with you?”
Chu Xiuzhu looked at Allen Peterson and sighed: “I’m old, it’s not easy to fall asleep.”
Allen Peterson smiled and shook his head: “uncle, in my opinion, you are not unable to sleep, but something in your heart. Is it because of the person’s name last night?”
Chu Xiuzhu has been absent-minded since he heard the name of the person in Lu Anbo’ts mouth. He has no momentum of the superior.
Chu Xiuzhu looked at Allen Peterson in surprise and nodded with a bitter smile: “yes, it’s because of him. To tell the truth, I can’t sleep well even if he is over Ding Yan.”
Looking at Chu Xiuzhu’s appearance, Allen Peterson also had a trace of curiosity about the name that Lu Anbo confided. Sooner or later, the Smith Group will compete with the Ding family, and that person must also be a thorny existence.
After a while, the door of the villa was knocked, and chefs came in with all kinds of food boxes in their hands.
Chu Xiuzhu said: “these are all the breakfasts in Baiyu building. After they make them every day, they will send one. It tastes good. Shall I ask them to bring you one every day?”
In any case, Allen Peterson saved Chu Yao after all. He wanted to thank him for his love and reason. It happened to be easy.
Allen Peterson waved his hand: “thank you for your kindness. No, I prefer to cook at home.”
Although the things in Baiyu building are exquisite, there is still a little taste like home missing. It’s OK to eat one or two meals. If he eats them all day, he can’t stand it.
Chu Xiuzhu didn’t insist. Anyway, the two families are allies.
As it was still early, Allen Peterson and Chu Xiuzhu ate first. It has to be said that the cook in Baiyu building had some skills.
“You eat now. I’ll send one to Chu Yao. She should be able to eat!”
Allen Peterson nodded: “it’s OK. These breakfasts are light and nutritious. There’s no taboo.”
Chu Xiuzhu walked upstairs with a breakfast. He gently pushed open the door of his daughter’ts room. For Chu Yao, he was guilty.
Yesterday, he almost killed his daughter because of his mistake.
Looking at Chu Yao lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, Chu Xiuzhu gently put down his breakfast and was about to go out. At this time, Chu Yao in bed talked about somniloquy.
“Brother Peterson, Brother Peterson, don’t. We can’t be together. I can’t break you up with sister Ava Smith.”
Chu Xiuzhu was stunned. He looked at Chu Yao on the bed and frowned gradually.
……
Simply after having breakfast inOld Chu’s villa, Allen Peterson went back upstairs and looked at Ava Smith who had woken up and said, “let’s go! I’ll take you home and don’t go to the company today.”
Ava Smith nodded. What happened yesterday really made her feel a sense of crisis in her heart.
Just picked up Ava Smith and Allen Peterson was ready to go out. Chu Xiuzhu walked in. Seeing this scene, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
“Come here, I have something to tell you. Stay here today and don’t go.”
Allen Peterson naturally wants it. From yesterday’s information, the Ding family is a group of outlaws. If they return home, they are not safe.
After what happened yesterday, Chu Xiuzhu had done a good job of protection. When he called yesterday, Allen Peterson heard that he wanted to send 20 bodyguards.
Even if the Ding family’s people attack on a large scale, this protective force can also protect several people to retreat safely.
“Then please uncle, Ava Smith. Let’s stay here for a few days and go home when it’s safe, okay?”
Ava Smith is not unreasonable. Knowing that it is safer to stay in Chu’s house at this time, she naturally won’t have any objection. She nodded skillfully.
Allen Peterson put Ava Smith on the bed and followed Chu Xiuzhu to his study.
“Uncle, I don’t know what you want from me. Is it difficult for the Ding family to do it again?”
Chu Xiuzhu shook his head and looked at Allen Peterson with a serious face: “I came to see you today because I want to do something about Chu Yao.”
Allen Peterson was stunned. Chu Yao, what’s going on? Is it the disease?
“Uncle, I have made it very clear about Chu Yao’s condition. She can recover after resting at home for a few weeks, no more than a month at the latest.”
Chu Xiuzhu snorted coldly, “I didn’t come to you about this, but wanted to marry Chu Yao. You ruined her innocence yesterday.”
Allen Peterson said in tears and laughter, “uncle, I was just joking with you about yesterday. I didn’t do anything beyond what you saw. Besides, I’m married and my wife is Ava Smith. Didn’t you know it long ago?”
Chu Xiuzhu certainly knows that after inviting Allen Peterson to dinner that day, he asked someone to transfer Allen Peterson. According to the data, he is the redundant son-in-law of theSmith Group.
But he has his own plan. Although Allen Peterson is not polite to him, he looks ok, and he said before that the Chu family only has Chu Yao.
He also wants to find a redundant son-in-law to marry her daughter, so as to inherit the family property of the Chu family. Otherwise, the Chu family, one of the eight families in the provincial capital, has not fallen into the hands of outsiders?
But what really made him decide was Chu Yao’s early morning dream. As a father, of course, he wanted to see his daughter happy and marry the person she liked.
“I know, but you can divorce when you are married. You can’t help marrying my daughter.”
Allen Peterson looked at Chu Xiuzhu with a serious face and put away his smile: “uncle, are you going to mess with the mandarin duck spectrum?”
“That’ts right.”
Allen Peterson took a deep breath and said with a straight face: “uncle,. It’ts impossible for me to divorce Ava Smith. Unless you kill me, I’ll only marry Ava Smith in my life.”
He turned and left the study.
Looking at the back of Allen Peterson leaving, Chu Xiuzhu was not only angry, but also showed his appreciative eyes.
If Allen Peterson couldn’t wait to agree and ran to divorce Ava Smith, he would doubt whether Allen Peterson came for their family property.
Allen Peterson clearly rejected him, but let him dispel his concerns and prove Allen Peterson’s character. Who is willing to let his daughter marry a scum?
Allen Peterson went out of Chu Xiuzhu’s study and went downstairs to get a breakfast. Then he returned to his room.
“Hungry! This is the breakfast in Baiyu building. Try it quickly.”
The exquisite breakfast immediately aroused Chu Yao’s interest. She picked up a steamed stuffed bun, bit it and said, “what did Uncle Chu say to you? Did the Ding family move?”
