Chapter 54: transaction

　　 "Kristin, are you ready? I'll come to pick you up now!" Johnny. Baker called at ten o'clock in the morning, and the banquet was ready.
　　 Christine didn't say anything. She promised Johnny, and of course she would not break the appointment because of Luke, even if she was dissatisfied with Johnny.
　　 Not long after, Johnny came over. Like many playboys, he personally drove over in a luxury sports car. Seeing Christine wearing a white dress and her exquisite figure, he suddenly felt his eyes shine.
"it's beautiful!"
　　 Johnny personally opened the door for Christine, and then drove away. Sibera watched in the villa and secretly scolded Johnny’s appearance. Everyone knew that Johnny wanted to get Christine, but dudes usually just play with some female stars. Once they play in bed Tired, will be ruthlessly abandoned.
　　 Although Sibela is young, she has been in the industry for many years, and she sees this very clearly. Those female stars who love vanity usually can't escape this stereotype. But Christine is different.
The lengthy banquet process, the luxurious villa banquet hall, walking around with all kinds of stars in the political and entertainment circles, Johnny’s father, Baker, is a refreshed old man, but in his sixties, the whole person looks more like four A vigorous man of fifty years old.
　　 Christine's mind is not at the banquet, Johnny is busy dealing with various characters, shuttles in the meantime, and makes fun of many beautiful women, seemingly unruly.
　　 "You are... Christine!" Suddenly a voice came from behind, which made Christine who was standing under the big oak tree turn around, and then he was stunned.
　　 "Mr. Baker!"
　　 Christine is a little at a loss. The person who came is today's owner, Mr. Baker, who is smiling and looking at Christine with interest.
　　 "I have been paying attention to you for a long time!"
　　 Christine couldn't help but smiled: "Sorry, I just... don't have much interest in this."
　　 "Too noisy?" Old Baker smiled slightly, and kept a certain distance from Christine, showing his very good education, "Young people like to be lively, but you are an exception!"
　　 "I like a quieter place, so... sorry!" Kristen apologized slightly. She respects Mr. Baker very much. He is a legend in the film industry and is respected by many people.
　　 "Do you mind if we talk?" Old Baker glanced at Christine.
　　 "Well, where is it?"
　　 "Let's just walk around!" Old Baker suggested.
　　 "As you wish!"
　　 "It's cleaner here, let's go here!" Old Baker pointed towards a tree-lined trail. His garden is very large, and the tree-lined path like this is relatively long and quiet.
　　 "What do you think of Johnny?" The two walked a short distance, and Old Baker suddenly asked.
　　 "What?" Obviously Christine didn't expect the old Baker to ask this question, "I'm sorry, did you mean Johnny? I think...I don't know him well yet!"
Old Baker nodded: "I know, many people know that he is a playboy, and children who grow up in rich people are always spoiled, and he is the same. But... I rarely see him willing to be a girl. The child jumped out to get her a leading role. I know you don’t lack such an opportunity, but he does this very rarely!"
　　 "You mean... he likes me?" Kristen frowned, "Yes, I seem to feel this way now. He treats me differently from others, maybe he has this idea!"
"Compared to the women he has been with, he can tell from his dedication to you, he really likes you!" Old Baker smiled, "You are indeed a beautiful woman, not just beautiful, but nothing else. I appreciate the worldly thoughts of women!"
Christine finally stopped and looked at Old Baker: "Mr. Baker, I don’t understand, why would you say this to me today? You know, I have no interest in Johnny. I promised him to come today, but It's because of some... promises, that's it!"
"If... If I want to ask you to make good friends with Johnny, as a real boyfriend and girlfriend, will you agree?" Old Baker finally said his purpose, "I will fully support your development in the film industry. , Including Oscars! I can invest in any movie you like!"
　　 "I'm sorry..." Kristen felt that his mind was a little lost. "What do you want to express? Is this a deal?"
　　 "If you think of this as a deal, then he is a deal!" Old Baker's conditions can easily impress most women, including those famous female stars.
　　 "If this is the case, I can't do it!" Christine refused without hesitation.
　　 "Don't rush to refuse, you have time to think about it!" Old Baker was not at all annoyed by Christine's refusal, he was confident.
　　 "Sorry, Mr. Baker, I'm a little uncomfortable, I'm going back, I am very happy to talk to you, Mr. Baker! Please tell Johnny, thank you for his invitation and your hospitality!"
　　 Christine's tone became very cold.
　　 "I hope our conversation today will become a secret!"
　　 Old Baker's voice came from behind.
"do not worry!"
　　 Kristen suddenly became a little disgusted with the smiling old man in front of him. This kind of person who can trade everything is really not worthy of respect.
　　On the way home, in order to avoid Johnny's entanglement, Christine decided to return to Temecula City. She always felt depressed and eager to talk to others.
　　 In this respect, Zhen is undoubtedly a better target.
　　 Zhen Fan has just finished the needle for a patient. He is a man in his thirties who suffered a cervical spine injury. Because of long-term office work, the cervical spine has problems. It is difficult to rotate a little and the pain is unbearable.
　　 I have done various therapies such as traction, acupuncture, drugs, etc. The doctor has already made a judgment and it is estimated that it is difficult to improve. When Western medicine couldn't help me, I was recommended by a doctor to try Chinese medicine.
　　 Chinese medicine is generally the last hope after Western medicine treatment has no results, it is adjuvant therapy. Moreover, most people who prefer Chinese medicine are white-collar workers, while ordinary families, because of medical insurance, choose Chinese medicine.
　　 "How do you feel? Mr. Edward!" Zhen Fan asked him to move his neck.
　　 The patient named Edward tried to move, and couldn't help feeling joy in his heart: "God, it feels good, I can move, it feels so good!"
　　 "After a few more courses of treatment, you will fully recover. Of course, you should pay attention to it in the future. Proper neck exercise will help your health!" Zhen Fan sent Edward out of the treatment room.
　　 "Thank you very much!" Edward and Zhen Fan shook hands.
　　 "Please pay the bill here!" Zhen Fan pointed to the front desk, Edward hurried over and took out the money clip.
The bill is connected to the Internet. After Zhen Fan recorded it on the computer in the treatment room, it would be displayed at the front desk. Zoe looked at the bill: "The total is 156 U.S. dollars. This is the cost after deducting half of the medical insurance. !"
　　 "So expensive?" Edward stopped holding his money clip.
　　 "Sir, compared to the therapeutic effect, I don't think it's very expensive, on the contrary, it's already very cheap!" Zoe calmly looked at Edward with some playfulness.
　　 "Should I complain that the state government did not fully include TCM treatment in medical insurance?" Edward finally paid the money, but he felt a bit of complaint. In his opinion, TCM generally charges eighty dollars even if it is relatively high. Unexpectedly, the charges here are more than twice as expensive.
　　 "I'm also complaining, sir!" Zhen Fan interrupted and smiled. "It is a very regrettable thing that Chinese medicine is not included in the medical insurance!"
　　 "You're right, bastard!" Edward looked at Zhen Fan's face a little unhappy, and quickly added, "I mean those state legislators!"
　　 "I have scolded them like this. When they set the drinking age at 21, I scolded them countless times when I was in high school!" Zoe added with a smile.
　　 "Goodbye, Dr. Zhen, you make me admire your medical skills very much!" Edward shook hands with Zhen Fan enthusiastically before leaving.
　　 Although I was a little unhappy when I paid the bill, money is money, friendship is friendship, and Americans divide it very clearly.
　　 "Goodbye! I hope your complaints can be heard by the councillors!"
　　 Sending away Edward, Zhen Fan finally took a sigh of relief. This morning is the tenth patient. The word-of-mouth communication between patients has greatly improved Zhen Fan's reputation. Often one patient brings a group of patients.
　　 At this time, Zhen Fan's cell phone rang.
　　 "Hi, Zhen, it's me, Christine!"
　　 "Christine?" Zhen Fan was taken aback.
　　 "Should I...should not call this time?" Kristen's voice hesitated.
Zhen Fan hurriedly laughed and said, "No, it's not, but I didn't expect it to be you. I was planning to report to the police station today. Someone has been missing for a long time. But luckily you called, so I don't have to go to the police station! Ha! "
　　 Zhen Fan made a joke.
　　 Zoe rolled his eyes while listening, and then immersed himself in playing with his tablet~EbookFREE.me~Are you free at night? For dinner together, I will make a reservation in the restaurant! "Christine said.
　　 "Well, tell me a place and time, I will go on time!" Zhen Fan said.
　　 "12 blocks, it's relatively close, and the restaurant tastes good. At 7 o'clock, do you want me to pick you up?" Kristin knew that Zhen Fan had no car.
　　 "Yes, why not?"
　　 Hanging up, Zhen Fan looked at Zoe, and Zoe looked up at Zhen Fan.
　　 "Christine? Is that vampire girlfriend?" Zoe looked at Zhen Fan playfully.
　　 Zhen Fan shrugged: "Yes, a dinner!"
"Wow!"
　　 Zoe gave a whistle.
　　 "Dinner, red wine, and then there will be French wet kisses, maybe something else will happen... Go, this is your chance, big stars can't date everyone!"
　　 "Can I think you are jealous?"
　　 Zhen Fan smiled.
　　 "No, you can think of it as a friend’s suggestion."
　　 "Thank you!" Zhen Fan smiled, "I like this friend!" Then he took a deep look at Zoe, turned and walked towards the office.
　　 "Damn..." Zoe looked at Zhen Fan's back and couldn't help but vomit, "If you have a new love, you forget your old love? It looks like a real bastard!
　　 But it seems that she has never admitted that she is Zhen Fan's girlfriend!
