“Lareina, it’s been half an hour. Why couldn’t the Olive you’ve mentioned come over?” John Brown couldn’t help saying. The appointed time was 9: 00, and it’s 9: 30, but the Olive didn’t show up.
“What are you in a hurry?” Lareina Lin glanced at John and said, “It’s normal for a busy person like Olive Lin to delay a few minutes when she encounters something on the road.”
Just then, a white Porsche drove up.
When the door opened, a young man in Armani suit and Patek Philippe watch stepped down from the driver’s seat. He walked to the front of the co-pilot, opened the door, and then bent down slightly. He put his hand under the side of the car and made a gesture of courtesy.
This scene naturally made Lareina jealous, shaking her head, “John, look at Fang’s son-in-law. The boy knows a lot about etiquette. Look at the waste in our family again. He often contradicted me.”
John curled his lip in disapproval. Perhaps in Lareina’s view, Fang’s son-in-law was gentlemanlike and polite. Still, in his opinion, Fang’s son-in-law was a bit too pretentious. It’s just his mother-in-law got out of the car. He made such a fuss that people who didn’t know him thought he was greeting the city’s big shots.
Olive was a woman with heavy makeup and elegant clothes. She may be in her fifties, but she looked like a woman in her forties because of her excellent maintenance.
After Olive got out of the car, Lareina immediately greeted her with great enthusiasm, “Olive, you are coming.”
“Hmm,” Olive answered slightly.
“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Olive spoke lightly, saying that she was sorry, but her manner didn’t show it. Instead, she looked proud.
“Never mind.” Lareina shook her head, “I have nothing to do anyway.”
After that, Lareina took another look at John and enthusiastically introduced, “Olive, this is my husband, John Brown.”
“Hello, Olive.” John managed a smile.
“Hmm.” Olive nodded gently, looking a little indifferent.
“This is my daughter, June Brown.” Lareina didn’t feel embarrassed and pulled June over.
“Nice to meet you, aunt Olive.”
June also greeted Olive.
Olive slightly nodded, but she was still proud. She looked a bit surprised. Lareina wasn’t good-looking, but her daughter was gorgeous.
“Olive, this is my …” Lareina thought about introducing Robin Zhou, but Olive waved her hand impatiently and said, “Well, don’t introduce more. I couldn’t remember anyway. Let’s hurry to see the house. I have other things to do after seeing the house.”
“Okay. Fine.” Lareina smiled bitterly, then took a hating look at Robin. As if she was saying that Robin was a waste. He wouldn’t be despised if he had any skill.
Robin was deadpan. Olive looked at people with a pair of dog eyes. What could he do?
Along the way, Fang’s response was icy, but her son-in-law, Hudson Zhang, was very enthusiastic and talked with Lareina from time to time.
“By the way, Aunt Lin, your daughter is so beautiful, and her husband must be good.”
Hudson suddenly shifted the topic into June. He was curious about what kind of man a goddess-like June would marry.
Lareina’s face was stiff. How could she answer this question? Could she directly say that her son-in-law was here and was a delivery man?
“Aunt Lin, is it inconvenient to talk about your son-in-law’s occupation?” Seeing Lareina didn’t speak for a long time, Hudson couldn’t help but wonder.
Lareina shook her head and managed a smile, “No. He works in a takeaway company.”
Lareina did not say that Robin was a delivery man but adopted a more euphemistic approach.
Hudson nodded gently and smiled, “Then he must have a high position in the company. Let me guess. Is he a supervisor or a manager?”
Supervisor? Manager?
Running errands was more like it!
Lareina was ashamed at this time. She couldn’t wait to dig a seam on the ground and then drill in. This useless man was a disgrace to her.
As the manager of the sales department, Hudson was good at reading people’s faces. If he didn’t understand Lareina’s meaning from her face, well, he would be regarded as a sales manager for nothing.
Hudson sarcastically glanced at Robin, and asked, “Aunt Lin, what is his relationship to you?”
“He … he is my son-in-law! His name is Robin Zhou.” Lareina bit her teeth and spoke. Now, there was nothing to hide. She didn’t want to lose face, but this scene would come sooner or later.
“Oh-“Hudson nodded gently, spoke deliberately with a smile, “If you don’t say anything, I thought he is your driver.”
Lareina smiled awkwardly and didn’t know how to respond.
“Hey, bro. You looked talented, so you must have a high position in the company, right?” Hudson smiled again and turned his eyes to Robin. Hudson quipped Robin. He already knew that Robin didn’t have a decent job at the take-out company from Lareina’s reaction, so he had nothing to do with the top management. The reason why Hudson asked was to embarrass Robin.
“Sorry, I let you down. I am not a high-level person. I am an ordinary deliveryman.” Robin spoke lightly, and there was no doubt that Hudson spoke stingily was because he was jealous. He probably didn’t even notice it himself. He had been the jealousy of Robin since Hudson saw June.
Robin has experienced it many times.
“Delivery?” Hudson opened his mouth wide in mock surprise, “Bro, are you kidding me?”
“No.” Robin smiled.
“You are honest and frank.” Hudson smiled dryly, then turned around and sighed and said, “Bro, to tell you the truth, I think it’s good to be a delivery man.”
“It can give you freedom compared to other occupations. You can go wherever you want to go. You can often climb stairs and exercise. If I don’t have a mortgage now, I plan to resign and be a deliveryman.”
Hudson sighed. People might think that he wished it if they didn’t know the truth.
Robin glanced at Hudson and sneered in his heart–how interesting!
“Manager Zhang, don’t be ridiculous. How can you quit such a good job?” Lareina wryly responded. Of course, she knew that Hudson was mocking Robin, but at this time, she could only hate Robin in her heart–Robin didn’t even lie. It was apparent that Robin wanted to embarrass her.
