If you can eat and wait for death and get a salary, Zhen Fan will definitely think it is a good idea. Every morning, run along the block to the river, then take a comfortable bath, make a hearty breakfast, lie on the sofa and watch TV, and play games online in the study.
Although this life is a bit monotonous, it seems meaningless. But for ordinary people, meaningless is the greatest meaning.
Zhen Fan has run about four miles around the river. With a towel around his neck and wearing a vest, his well-proportioned muscles look full and powerful against the tight-fitting vest. The thighs under the shorts tightened, reflecting the light of sweat in the morning light.
A few girls with mobile phones whistled to him, and then they got Zhen Fan's very nasty response. Behind them was a bunch of unscrupulous giggles like a little hen's laughter.
"Hi!"
Taking advantage of the joy of being molested by a beautiful woman, Zhen Fan greeted a tall white girl who ran towards her.
"Hi!"
The girl reacted, smiled at Zhen Fan and waved her hand, and then the two passed by.
Zhen Fan looked back and glanced down at her tight buttocks.
stopped by a bridge, sat down on a stone bench by the river, rested for a while, and wiped off his sweat with a towel.
The air is really fresh. In such a small city, the air is usually cleaner than that of a big city. It makes people feel refreshed. I closed my eyes and took a strong breath.
"Hey...may I sit down?"
A voice came from behind, she was definitely a woman, still very young.
Zhen Fan moved his to make room for a very spacious place.
A beautiful white woman with chestnut hair sat down, the girl who had just passed by and said hello.
"I often run here, I rarely see you!" The girl wiped her sweat and smiled at Zhen Fan.
"Uh, I just came to the United States to settle down recently, in the 12th block nearby."
"Oh, what a coincidence, I also have a house there." The girl said, reaching out to Zhen Fan, "Christine!"
"Oh!" Zhen Fan suddenly realized that he stretched out his hand, "Fan Zhen, who just immigrated from China, will we meet every morning from now on?"
"That may be true. I won't live here often, but occasionally...maybe come over and stay for a while, then... see you later, Zhen!" Kristen stood up, holding the hanging from both sides of his neck with both hands. The towel started to run, and the pony tail hopped, like dancing.
When Zhen Fan returned home, Claire was already waiting for her at the door. Her face was very good and she was smiling, which was quite different from her usual.
"Uncle" Seeing Zhen Fan walk into the lawn, Claire jumped over.
"Baby, how long have you been waiting?"
"I just came, mom must have me eat breakfast to come here, so..."
"Well, this jade pendant should always be taken with you. It was given to you by your uncle. You can't let others take it away!" Zhen Fan picked up Claire and squeezed the jade pendant.
"Can't Mom also do it?"
Claire asked in a low voice.
"Well, then... tell mom, if you want a gift, your uncle will give it to her, and you can't grab Claire's baby!"
Claire nodded vigorously. Going to the door, slipped down, waited for Zhen Fan to open the door, then ran in cheering and fell on the sofa.
The little girl slept well and was full of energy. She was making noise on the sofa for a while. Seeing Zhen Fan was making breakfast, she ran over to turn on the TV and watch cartoons!
"ZhenClaire"
Annie's voice came from the door, as if playing hide and seek with someone.
"The door is open, come in by yourself, Claire is watching TV!"
Zhen Fan cooks, but he does not move. He has peeled the potatoes and soaked them in water to wash them.
"Isn't it bothering you?"
Annie walked over to say hello to Zhen Fan, and then sat on a high chair on the bar counter next to the dining table, watching Zhen Fan washing the potatoes with a slight smile on her face.
"I think your craft must be very good."
"I have won the chef competition champion in China!" Zhen Fan glanced at her and smiled, but "community competitions are like part of the neighborhood. Of course, I am proud to surpass those housewives!"
"Wow!" Annie was startled, and then sighed, "No wonder Claire ate so much last night."
At this time, Zhen Fan picked up the potatoes, put them on the chopping board, and pulled out the knife. A Chinese-style kitchen knife is not the kind used by Americans.
Zhen Fan flew fast, potatoes were quickly cut into thin pieces, and beef was shredded.
"Chinese-style approach?"
Annie looked at it, completely different from what she did, her eyes widened.
"Yes, Chinese cooking techniques, do you want to try it, and if you're ready later!"
Zhen Fan's eyes twitched at Annie, which made Annie blush.
But the aroma soon came out, which made her a little unbearable.
"If... OK!" She couldn't refuse.
actually proved that Zhen Fan's craftsmanship is indeed good.
Annie has eaten Chinese food several times, but the taste is not as good as Zhen Fan's beef stewed potatoes, plus a bowl of three fresh soup, the taste buds suddenly exploded, and the taste is a bit disregarding the image.
"Uncle, I want too!"
At some point, the fragrance seduce Claire, a little glutton, and smiled at Zhen Fan very cutely, licked her pink tongue, her big eyes flickered and looked at Zhen Fan, if true It would be a crime to not feed this child.
"Well, Claire just ate breakfast, it should be less, just a small bowl!"
Anne reported Claire to the table beside the dining table and told her.
"Uncle"
Claire looked at Zhen Fan pitifully.
"Claire, my mother is right. Or at night, my uncle will make you a fresh one, which is guaranteed to be better than this, how about it?"
"Great!" Claire sat upright, then lay down on the table, and began to fight the small plate of beef stewed potatoes that Zhen Fan brought over.
"This...I'm really sorry!" Annie shrugged at Zhen Fan helplessly. She also knew now that Zhen Fan was really kind to Claire and really liked her.
"It's okay. Originally, I was planning to invite your family. You and Thomas will come over tonight. How about a dinner together? This was originally planned."
Zhen Fan comforted.
"Then...thank you, our family will be there on time!"
Annie nodded, with a warm smile on her face.
Since I am planning to invite a family to dinner, the ingredients are obviously not enough. Zhen Fan plans to walk to sell some food. When Anne went back by herself, let Claire play or watch TV alone in the living room.
Zhen Fan didn’t get lost this time, she found Kylie directly. The supermarket where Willie is. Although I have gone a little longer, the materials for Chinese food in the supermarket are more complete than other supermarkets.
"Hi, Kelly!"
Zhen Fan is facing Kylie at the door. Willie said hello.
"Hi, I don't know what your name is yet!" Kelly﹒ Willie is a little interested in this Chinese boy. There is a smile on his freckled face. There are not many people in the supermarket anyway. No one has paid the bill for the time being, so he simply wanted to talk to Zhen Fan.
"Fan. Zhen!" Zhen Fan walked in and stood by and talked to her.
"Zhen, the that day was caught. I didn't expect that the new police officer is still very efficient. You can now buy things here with confidence. I guess they dare not act rashly!"
They mean that the gang is a gangster.
"What do you usually do? I have rarely seen you before. You only showed up recently. Or I guess?" Kelly blinked and a customer came. She checked the cash and talked to Zhen Fan.
"Well, if you guess it right, I invite you to Chinese food, if you guess it wrong, then I will cook you Chinese food!"
Zhen Fan blinked his eyes and smiled.
"Thirty-five dollars and twenty-one cents!" Kelly made an offer while collecting money, and took the time to speak to Zhen Fan, "Go buy your things, you sly fellow, that's it!"
"Hey, you haven't guessed yet!"
"I'll tell you when you pay the bill!"
"Okay!" Zhen Fan shrugged, and then went to buy materials.
In fact, Kelly only guessed half of it. Zhen Fan really just immigrated, but not an overseas student, but to inherit the inheritance.
"Don't forget what you said to invite me to Chinese food."
Watching Zhen Fan go out, Kelly said aloud.
"Yes, I will call you tomorrow, and I will pick you up after you get off work!"
"Goodbye, Zhen!"
"Goodbye, beautiful girl!" Zhen Fan walked back on foot ~EbookFREE.me~ This time he did not meet Eddie.
When he got home, Claire had already fallen asleep on the sofa, her little arched up, her little face buried in the sofa, and she leaned on her side, looking simple and cute.
Zhen Fan covered her with a thin blanket, and then began to prepare ingredients for the evening.
Dinner is Kung Pao chicken, salt and pepper beef, braised fish and steak, and a large bowl of fish soup.
Thomas and Annie showed up on time at five o'clock. They also brought a plate of fruit salad, dessert after dinner, etc.
"Wow!" Thomas took a bite of salt and pepper beef, and couldn't stop, his mouth was full, and he said this in a vague way, "Zhen, you are a real gourmet, an excellent chef, no, An outstanding artist. This is all art."
Although Annie had tasted the delicious beef stew with potatoes, the taste of dinner was different. Although she was very reserved, she never stopped with the knife, fork and spoon in her hand.
Zhen Fan was not stupid enough to teach them to use chopsticks to eat, and he always used Western knife and fork habits. Although it is not very convenient, at least they eat better than using chopsticks.
was eating, Zhen Fan's phone rang!
"Sorry!" Zhen Fan said sorry, and then walked aside.
"Zhen, those things are really connected. Four people in that cafe have died, all of them were performing. Three of them died in the lake, and one jumped out of the building. You gave her flowers. The one..."
Sarah started talking as soon as she was connected.
