The first thing that happened was that Lucy Hill invited her, which was barely justified, because she and Ted Sanchez were buddies, but it was too strange to add Snow Song to the mix, because Snow Song hated her, so what did they want?
“Yes,” Leroy Davis agreed.
“Okay then, 8pm, Snow and I will wait for you, see you soon” said Lucy Hill and hung up the phone, Snow Song was sitting beside her, hearing Leroy Davis agreed, Snow Song’s heart couldn’t help but feel happy, the corners of her mouth hooked up a smile.
Last time in the Danfeng Street night market, Lucy Hill and Snow Song were taken by Gary Mars pretending to be blind, and then a mysterious young man instructed Caleb Rodriguez to rescue them, when the strange behavior of several young people sent them back, the identity of the mysterious young man pointed to Leroy Davis.
Lucy Hill and Snow Song agreed that night to keep an eye on Leroy Davis to see if he was intentionally hiding his identity and was in fact a super rich kid.
But in the following days, Leroy Davis behaved as before in school, without any sign of a rich boy.
Lucy Hill thinks it may be that they have seen Leroy Davis so little that they can’t find any clues.
These days, Snow Song’s heart is getting more and more suspicious, she really especially wants to know whether Leroy Davis is the mysterious noble young man.
Lucy Hill is also the same, the two of them decided to take the initiative to ask Leroy Davis out for a “concentrated” observation to find out whether Leroy Davis really hid his identity from them.
But at this point the two, after many recollections of the details of the day over the past few days, had 70% in their minds that Leroy Davis must be hiding something from them and that he really might be a super rich kid who could move Caleb Rodriguez.
“Look at you, you haven’t even met him yet, and you’re smiling like this, what are you going to do when you do meet him,” Lucy Hill teased Snow Song.
“Where did I laugh?” Snow Song still refused to admit it, but the smile on her face was more than concealed: “Lucy Hill, do you think Leroy Davis is really the mysterious noble young man who saved us?”
“These days I really think back especially carefully, the look of those people who sent us here, I think there is a 70% possibility that it is Leroy Davis, otherwise how to explain the two red ropes, once we scolded Leroy Davis, those people glared, and how to explain”
“Hmm,” Snow Song hmmed softly, “So how do we ask him, do we ask him directly what his status is?”
“Oh, Snow, Snow, I think you’re crazy about Leroy Davis, right?” Lucy Hill gently whacked Snow Song on the head: “If you ask him that, you still want him to tell you the truth? We have to side step him, not to let him see, so that we can dig out the true identity of Leroy Davis little by little”
“Snow, you whisper to me, do you like Leroy Davis?” Lucy Hill came close to Snow Song and asked in a whisper, seeing that Snow Song blushingly did not say, Lucy Hill rubbed her shoulder again: “Say it, say it, don’t worry, I have Ted Sanchez, not to steal your Leroy Davis”
“If he is really the mysterious young man who saved us, I naturally like him, girls who do not like capable men ah “Snow Song finally spoke:” but if he is not a mysterious young man, he is still a small poor in my eyes, I and he certainly not possible ”
“You are quite real, come on, let’s go back to the dormitory first, we will go to the Ghost Bar to meet Leroy Davis later” said Lucy Hill and Snow Song headed to the dormitory.
At 7:30, Leroy Davis headed off-campus to the Ghost Bar and was almost there when Ray Baker from the Flag Bank called him.
“Mr. Leroy Davis, I bought the Ling Wu Building for you 2 days ago, the total amount is 870 million, I have communicated with Mr. Rodriguez before, more than an hour ago, I have done all the formalities for you, where are you, I will rush over and talk to you face to face” Ray Baker looked excited, it was his first time dealing with such a large amount of money, and Caleb Rodriguez gave him a million dollars as commission.
“I’ll contact you in the next few days and I’ll come to your place to see for myself” Leroy Davis thought that Caleb Rodriguez did not help him with this matter because he wanted to know for himself how to do business, and he could not push Caleb Rodriguez. Rodriguez, so he said.
Ray Baker obligingly agreed to be on call whenever Leroy Davis called him.
Hanging up his cell phone, Leroy Davis took a few steps forward and walked into the Ghost Bar.
“Leroy Davis, here,” Lucy Hill waved at Leroy Davis. Snow Song was still sitting at the table drinking water and not looking in Leroy Davis’ direction, except that her grip on the glass tightened a bit.
“We’ve ordered Hennessy for you, it’s to your liking,” Lucy Hill said with involuntary enthusiasm, Leroy Davis is probably a super rich kid.
“He glanced at Snow Song sitting beside him, only to see her not looking at herself, drinking by herself, and sighed in his heart, since she didn’t want to see me, why did she invite me here?
How could Leroy Davis have imagined that Snow Song would not look at him today, not because she hated him like before, but because she was nervous and afraid that Leroy Davis would be suspicious if she suddenly became warm to him?
“Snow, Leroy Davis is here and you’re not going to say hello to Leroy Davis?” Lucy Hill said in a small voice as she rounded the middle.
“You are here” Snow Song then slightly raised his head, looked at Leroy Davis, but this glance is a small surprise to Leroy Davis heart, usually Snow Song look at him in the eyes are full of disgust, but just now that glance, there is a glimpse of tenderness and not natural. Leroy Davis shook his head to clear it.
Leroy Davis took another look at Snow Song, today she painted exquisite makeup, more beautiful than any time he had seen in the past, that quietly sitting in the seat of the body is really beautiful.
Lucy Hill, Snow Song and Leroy Davis exchanged a few pleasantries, and the two looked at each other before starting their plans.
“Leroy Davis, why haven’t you told us about your family before? Tell us about it,” Lucy Hill said, leading the conversation naturally to this question.
“My family is very ordinary, my parents are farmers, I am also the first college student in our family …” This question is not very difficult for Leroy Davis, in this “family poverty training In the seven years of “family poverty training”, Leroy Davis has already summed up a set of rhetoric, Lucy Hill asked 2 or 3 questions, Leroy Davis are not moving to deal with the past.
Lucy Hill and Snow Song looked at each other, each other’s eyes have a look of incomprehension, Lucy Hill winked, they continue to ask, do not believe that inquiring a little trace.
“I see you’ve been away from school for a long time, where did you go to dash around?”
“Went out to work. You should have heard Ted Sanchez say that I earn my living by working part-time.”
“Leroy Davis, do you know anything about economic principles? Snow and I are interested in it, so tell us about it.”
“You guys are high on me, how do I know anything about economic principles, as you know, my profession is gardening, to put it bluntly, is planting trees …”
“Do you know how the top tycoons like Li Ka-shing educate their children?”
“What do you think of the stock market at the moment?”
“Have you ever been to the Berkeley Come Hotel?”
“What industries are you looking at in the future?”
…
For all the questions Lucy Hill and Snow Song asked, Leroy Davis always said he “does not understand”, “will not”, “have never been”, which It’s not that he’s intentionally pretending, because the Davis family has stretched for hundreds of years, they have a lot of elite effectiveness, these professional issues they do not need to personally understand.
This confused Lucy Hill and Snow Song as to what was going on. They were asking questions that they thought a super rich kid must know and, they were sure, Leroy Davis didn’t notice and they were intentionally testing Leroy Davis.
Lucy Hill and Snow Song couldn’t help but have a hunch that Leroy Davis might really be a poor man, not the super rich kid they thought he was.
Snow Song let out a deep breath.
“Leroy Davis, I remember the last time we went to the night market, that old lady gave you and Snow those two ‘one-liners’ to wear, you were the one holding them, right?” Lucy Hill finally had to start with that question.
Snow Song’s eyes also brightened up some, last time they found two red ropes in the car, as long as to determine, the two red ropes are not Leroy Davis dropped, can also determine, Leroy Davis is not to save their precious young.
“Yeah, what’s up?” Leroy Davis replied casually and pulled out the two red cords from his pocket.
Seeing the red rope, Lucy Hill and Snow Song’s hearts were filled with joy as they felt they were close to finding out the identity of Leroy Davis.
“Let’s see,” Snow Song said, taking the red rope from Leroy Davis and looking at it as if it were the same two red ropes he had seen in the Maserati that day.
“Let me ask you, you don’t tie these two red cords, they are easy to lose, have you ever lost them, or left them somewhere?” Snow Song asked Leroy Davis while tying up the two red ropes in an organized manner.
If Leroy Davis said that he had lost the two red ropes in the car, then Snow Song and Lucy Hill will have no doubt that the mysterious young man who saved them last time must be Leroy Davis, who has been hiding his identity from them.
“It did drop …,” Leroy Davis was saying casually, when he suddenly felt a hint of something wrong.
Why did Lucy Hill and Snow Song ask me those questions earlier? “The Economy”, “Berkeley Comes to Hotels”, “The Education of the Richest” “Where was I during this time?” …, not good! They are side-tracking me to find out who I am! Looking at the glowing eyes of Snow Song and Lucy Hill at this point, Leroy Davis was even more certain.
Leroy Davis suddenly remembered the day he did lose the two red ropes in the Maserati that his men found for him, the same Maserati that picked up Snow Song and the girls that day!
Thinking of this, Leroy Davis understood the intention of Snow Song and their intention is to use the two red ropes to determine their identity. Look at Snow Song’s hot eyes, once they know their identity, will be a big trouble, Leroy Davis is not willing to reveal his identity to them.
“… the last time I fought in the cafeteria, the red string fell out of my pocket, and luckily I saw it or it would have been gone …” Leroy Davis changed his story midway through.
“The cafeteria?” Lucy Hill and Snow Song stumble, and Snow Song aggressively coaxes again, “Have you ever lost it anywhere else, let’s say…”
She really wanted to just ask Leroy Davis if he had lost it in the Maserati, but that would have been too obvious, and she certainly couldn’t say that.
“Oh, I remember!” Leroy Davis looked as if he had really remembered something.
“Where?” Lucy Hill and Snow Song’s eyes flashed.
“In the car!” Leroy Davis exclaimed.
“What kind of car?” Snow Song asked dementedly.
“The bus! I gave up my seat for the grandmother and left it on the chair, or the grandmother reminded me!” Leroy Davis said, playing dumb.
God damn bus, Lucy Hill and Snow Song both covered their foreheads, they were both on the verge of collapse.
