Chapter 97 Dad Doesn't Come Home

"What did you just say? Sarah?" Zhen Fan widened his eyes, looked at Sarah in surprise, and then repeated, "God, I think I heard it wrong!"

"Yes, you heard it wrong, you should go, don't stand in front of me, just look at it and get angry!"

Sarah's face was flushed, and she simply turned sideways, not bothering to pay attention to him.

"I'll see you later!" Zhen Fan bid farewell to Sarah, leaned over, lowered his head, and approached Sarah's mouth.

"If you dare to kiss me, I will...!"

Sarah blushed and wanted to speak harshly, but her voice was weak.

"Don't even think about it, I put something next to your pillow!" Zhen Fan said, and sure enough, he took out a small triangular thing wrapped in black cotton cloth from the side of her pillow, which was tied with black silk thread.

"What is this?" Sarah changed the topic in a panic, trying to hide her embarrassment just now, but was tricked by this guy again, he must have done it on purpose.

"It's a charm to keep you safe. In China, it's very popular. Staying with you can keep you safe, just like your cross or lucky charm!"

Zhen Fan spoke very seriously, and then untied the silk thread very carefully.

Sarah only felt a chill on her neck, and the silk thread wrapped around her slender neck, and the black triangle hung down and stuck to Sarah's chest, where it just fell to the beginning of the deep ditch.

"Thank you, Zhen!"

This time Sarah spoke very nicely. She knew Zhen Fan's ability, since she was at the lake that night, and she also knew that this talisman must have the same effect as Zhen Fan said, and she spoke from the bottom of her heart.

"I know, goodbye, Sarah!" Zhen Fan stood up, then looked at her with a smile, "Remember, don't get wet, and when you take a shower, try to put it as far away from the water as possible!"

Sarah nodded and watched Zhen Fan leave.

That person had been gone for quite a while, and Sarah came back to her senses. She stretched out her hand and touched the black charm on her chest. subdued the pain. It's a wonderful feeling, it feels very comfortable.

"What a good thing!"

Sarah suddenly smiled, and her whole body was filled with warmth.

Zhen Fan came out of the hospital and wanted to take a taxi, but after waiting for a long time, he still couldn't stop one. Taking a taxi in Los Angeles, and not being able to get a taxi for so long, is really frustrating.

"It's time to get a driver's license, this damn taxi." Zhen Fan couldn't help but cursed.

"Hey buddy, where are you going?"

Suddenly, the sound of a car braking suddenly was heard, and then a black head stuck out from the window, shouting loudly at Zhen Fan.

"Hey, Eddie, is that you?" Zhen Fan saw this guy, his eyes lit up, he responded happily, and walked over.

"It's me, buddy, get in the car!" Eddie shook his head at Zhen Fan, "I'll take you back!"

"Of course. Of course!" Zhen Fan got into the car and sat behind Eddie.

"Sit down, buddy, my speed may be very fast!" Eddie was still the same, talking and doing things in a hurry, before he finished speaking, he kicked the accelerator, Zhen Fan leaned back, and the car rushed out.

"It's really... a unique style!"

Zhen Fan couldn't help muttering.

"Yes, yes, Eddie style, like it?"

"I heard that you have been missing for a while." Zhen Fan had nothing to say, "It's because you offended Jim!"

"Jim? That's a joke!" Eddie shook his head quickly. "No, it's not him, he? I don't care, who cares about him? I'm just going to New York, it's a big city!"

"Well, you don't care!" Zhen Fan didn't expose him, "Then you plan to go back to your old job?"

"Of course, man, I don't want to bother to find a job. Driving a taxi is good. Look, I'm still free."

Eddie couldn't see a trace of trouble, which made Zhen Fan very envious. Even under the pressure of Jim, he still faced life with a smile. Maybe this is Xiaoqiang in Los Angeles. Although he lives at the bottom, he is very optimistic.

In 20 minutes, Zhen Fan arrived home, and Eddie's speed was still as fast as ever.

"You don't need to look for it!" Zhen Fan got out of the car, took out a hundred dollar bill from his wallet, and handed it over.

"Thank you, buddy!" Eddie was not polite, he reached out to take it, and then flicked his fingers, "I love this guy to death!" He pointed to the head of Franklin who was injured by the banknote.

"Goodbye, Eddie!"

Before he could finish speaking, the taxi had already left.

This guy is still like this, Zhen Fan shook his head and smiled, turned around and walked towards his house. As soon as he walked into the yard, he saw Claire standing on his own steps, waving at him.

"Hey, Claire, do you want to come over and play?"

Zhen Fan waved at her.

"Okay, Uncle Zhen!" Claire jumped for joy, holding a rag doll, and ran over with a smile. Zhen Fan opened the door, waiting to enter with Claire.

"Uncle Zhen, is Claire pretty?"

Clare waited for the round eyes, raised her head, and looked at Zhen Fan, looking forward to it.

"Claire is very beautiful!" Zhen Fan said, while picking up Claire, let her sit on the sofa, then squatted down, looked at her and smiled, "Why would Claire say that?"

"Because...someone wants to marry me!" Claire lowered her voice, "You can't tell mom, she will be terrified, this is our secret!"

Zhen Fan was dumbfounded, then looked at Claire, God, how big is this?

"Will I become a very beautiful bride?" Claire asked another question with great anticipation, "I've seen photos of my mother, with my father, and she looks very beautiful in a wedding dress. I also want to be as beautiful as my mother!"

The ambition of a little girl.

Zhen Fan pinched Claire's face and smiled.

"Of course, Claire will be the most beautiful bride in the future, prettier than your mother!"

"Thank you, Uncle Zhen!"

Claire giggled, then kissed Zhen Fan, slipped off the sofa, and turned on the TV. This little guy has long been familiar with him. Zhen Fan's place is a free zone, so she can do whatever she wants.

"Well, Claire, who said they wanted to marry you?"

Zhen Fan was about to cook, and chatted with Claire while preparing the dishes.

"What did you say? Uncle Zhen?"

Claire was watching a cartoon, and had already forgotten what she said just now.

"Okay, let me say, what dish do you want to eat? I'll make it for you!"

Zhen Fan had no choice but to change his words and ask casually.

"Potatoes mixed with beef!"

She remembered this, Zhen Fan nodded in agreement, and then began to peel potatoes.

"Claire!"

Annie called Claire's name from next door.

"Claire, your mother is calling you! Didn't you tell your mother about coming over just now?"

Zhen Fan said something loudly in the kitchen.

Claire slid down and shook her head: "I want beef mixed with potatoes!"

"It's beef stew with potatoes!"

"So I don't intend to go back!"

"But... you have to tell mom, don't you? Claire is a lovely kid! Don't let mom worry about you, okay?"

Zhen Fan walked out of the kitchen, squatted beside Claire, and combed her hair.

"Well, for God's sake, I'm going to talk to Mom!"

Claire said seriously.

"Pfft!"

Zhen Fan couldn't hold back, burst out laughing, splashed a little saliva on Claire's face, making Claire frown, and then ran to the kitchen to wash it out.

"It's disgusting, Uncle Zhen!"

"Claire who loves cleanliness!" Zhen Fan gave her a thumbs up, which made Claire smile a little smugly again.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Zhen Fan hurried over to open the door. It was Annie who was at the door. She looked inside and saw Claire approaching cautiously, hiding behind Zhen Fan.

"Claire, you can talk to mom now!"

Zhen Fan held Claire's shoulder with one hand and smiled at her.

"Mom!" Claire looked like she had done something wrong, and lowered her head, feeling aggrieved, making it unbearable to punish this little elf. "I promise, I'll go home after eating Uncle Zhen's beef and potatoes!"

Annie looked at Zhen Fan helplessly.

"She's always giving you trouble!"

Zhen Fan smiled.

"No, no, she is very good, I like her to come and be with me! I have stewed beef and potatoes, do you want to come together?" Zhen Fan invited her very politely.

"This... alright!"

Anne was not polite, so she agreed.

Zhen Fan was taken aback, at first he thought it was a polite remark, but Annie actually agreed. Randomly remembered a joke: A Chinese had just arrived in the United States, and when chatting with American friends, he casually said, "Come and sit at my house if you have nothing to do!" Sit down at home. They took such polite words seriously.

It seems that I still haven't done as Romans do.

Fortunately, the portion of goulash with potatoes was enough, enough for three people to eat. Zhen Fan and Annie also drank some high-quality fruit wine. Annie's face was already rosy, and her cheeks were flushed and very attractive.

"It's delicious!" Annie felt a little bit full from eating, and was a little embarrassed. Naturally, she was full of praise for Zhen Fan's cooking skills, "I'm a little bit full!"

"If you like it..." Zhen Fan was very satisfied with the state of Annie and Claire. It is very satisfying to make delicious food that can be appreciated by others and eat with open belly. "You can come over anytime!"

"Thank you! You are always so kind!" Annie smiled and kissed Claire.

"Would you like tea or a drink?"

"Forget it, Zhen, I have to go back!" Annie smiled and hugged Claire, "Goodbye, Zhen!"

"goodbye!"

"Mom, isn't Dad coming home today?" Claire's voice came over.

"Yes, Dad is always busy!"

Annie sighed helplessly, and then the voices of the two became farther and farther away.
