Chapter 1639: Old friend

Ariel will appear here, in fact, it was completely an accident.
　　 originally came to Los Angeles to see her new slot machine business, and to see the local boss in charge of the business, let them know who is the new boss.
　　 But she didn't know that Gastina was going to Li's castle, to attend the news of Li's little princess Jenny's full moon party, and learned that Lilith was also invited to be listed.
　　The news made Ariel jealous. She was also dissatisfied that she had not received any news, not even a phone number for enquiries.
　　So, the angry Ariel came here on her own initiative, and she came with Gastina.
　　 The other party will bring her in because she told Gastina: "I want to surprise my father, he will not blame me."
　　Gastina believed it was true, because Ariel was invited to New York for Christmas, and this is a fact that no one can refute.
　　After seeing Li Zitao walking towards him with a sullen face, Ariel was up and down, raising her head stubbornly on the surface, unwilling to admit defeat.
　　 However, her wrist was suddenly grasped by a sturdy palm, "Follow me," before she could see the person, she was taken to the corner of the ballroom by the other party.
　　 "Wait." Arriving in the corner, Ariel discovered that Li Zitao's figure had disappeared, letting out a sigh of relief while pulling his palm.
　　 "When was the temper so hot?" A funny voice came, and Aiden turned to look at Ariel, making her bow her head involuntarily.
　　 "Aiden...I didn't hear you." Ariel explained with embarrassment.
　　 "Come with me and have a drink together." Aiden said indifferently, and took her to the unremarkable bar by the wall.
　　 "Give me a martini, a glass of iced lemonade." Aiden snapped his fingers at the handsome guy at the bar.
　　 "I can drink." Ariel whispered that she really wanted a drink at this moment.
　　 "Not here, unless you want to be kicked out." Aiden pointed to the center of the dance hall. Li Zitao was holding Jenny to accept the blessings of everyone, but his eyes were locked on them.
slightly!
　　 made a mischievous tongue and grimaces. Ariel was teased by herself, and she sat on the chair and giggled unceasingly.
　　 "Your soda is ready." She turned her head toward the bar, Aiden glared at her and signaled, ``Don't provoke your father. ’
　　 "How does she look?" Ariel wrinkled her nose to express her dissatisfaction and asked casually.
"Who?"
　　Looking along her eyes, Aiden saw her sister, Jenny, who was being lifted by her father, and smiled from the heart: "It is a healthy and beautiful little girl."
　　 "What about Pelby?" Ariel asked.
　　 "They are all my sisters, just as important in my mind." Aiden looked at her curiously, wondering why she asked that.
　　Ariel whispered a few seconds later, "What about me?"
　　 "..." Aiden understood, this is her purpose. Want to know her status in her heart, or do you have any promises?
　　 "I can't promise anything, but you are also a member of this family." As he said before, Ariel will always be part of this family.
　　 "Is it?" Ariel opened her eyes wide and didn't seem to believe what he said.
　　Aiden put her hands on her head in a funny way, rubbing it like her father said: "Don't doubt, have a little confidence in yourself!"
　　 "Don't mess with my hair." Ariel shrugged off his hand in shame, but at the bottom of her heart was reluctant.
　　 It's so nice to have relatives by her side and comfort her.
　　 "Guess what they are talking about?" Li Zitao and Mary kept smiling between the crowds in the center of the ballroom, but most of their thoughts were placed on the bar counter by the wall.
　　What Aiden and Ariel are talking about from the distance, movements and expressions between them should be a pleasant conversation.
　　 "It must be talking about the anecdotes in their own lives, or maybe they are talking about me." Li Zitao nodded forward and said enthusiastically, "John, is your body okay?"
　　John Nance Ghana, Vice President of the Roosevelt era. Although he has already resigned, his family still has considerable influence in Washington.
　　 "I'm fine, Charlie, thank you for your concern." Old John hugged him and happily pointed to the side and introduced: "Look who I invited."
　　 "Cordell?" Li Zitao was shocked to see the appearance of the coming person.
　　 Cordel Hull, Secretary of State of Roosevelt and a firm ally and personal friend.
　　After Roosevelt's death, he resigned from all positions in dismay, and did not know where to go to hide.
　　People say that he was mourning because of Roosevelt's death, and chose to live away from politics and live a life of seclusion.
　　 No one has heard of him in these years, how could he suddenly appear here today.
　　 "Charlie, congratulations, the little princess looks very healthy and beautiful." Cordel squeezed his hand and shook it hard.
　　 "Thank you." Li Zitao asked casually: "Where have you been all these years, how is your life?"
　　 Cordel smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's hard to say a word. We'll talk after the end."
　　 "Okay." Li Zitao also just wanted to talk to him.
When he saw Cordel, he knew that the other party had something to ask for, and he just wanted to ask the other party~EbookFREE.me~ In politics, Li Zitao has always taken a blind eye, turning a blind eye to it. Countermeasures.
　　 But his current position can no longer continue like this.
　　 Therefore, he needed a person who could understand politics and know him well, who had been the Secretary of State of the Roosevelt government, and it was the right time for Cordel to have a good personal relationship with him.
　　 "Boss, Secretary Grant wants to congratulate you." Ava's matter appeared beside him, reminding him that there are others to see.
　　 "See you in the reception room after the end, I have to go and say hello to my guests." After saying goodbye to several people, Li Zitao hurried towards Grant Fozer.
　　 "My friend, you look a lot fatter. Isn't the food at the Chicago Police Station too good?" Li Zitao teased him teasingly.
　　 The chief of the Chicago Police Department, there is an increasing trend of horizontal development.
　　 If he goes on like this, he may be struggling even to climb the stairs in the future. How can he do well in his essence and present position.
　　 "Don't make fun of me, Charlie." Grant's face was squeezed into a bitter gourd-like appearance, and said sadly: "I had a serious illness some time ago, so it became like this, too bad!"
　　 "Oh?" Li Zitao asked in amazement; "what is the disease, why no one told me."
　　 "It's not a big problem, rest assured, I can continue to work." Grant said to distract from the topic and did not want to continue to entangle himself.
　　 "With regard to the motel murder, I have some clues to tell you." Seeing his surprised look, Grant laughed out contentedly.
