Min Congda stared at Marcella's face for a long time before he noticed a trace of Ada.
I didn’t expect that a middle-aged man with a strong body and a voluptuous face would give birth to a daughter so beautiful and cute.
Marcella seemed to notice Min Congda's thoughts and said: "This was not the case when I was young. They all said that I looked like Leonardo DiCaprio. You know, he is of Italian descent."
Min Congda didn't know many celebrities, but he still knew DiCaprio. Thinking of DiCaprio, he immediately nodded and said, "When you say that, I understand."
Because Min Congda knew that Xiao Lizi, who was as handsome as jade back then, would become a greasy fat man in the future, and time was really feeding the pigs.
After a slightly awkward first meeting, Marcella quickly and enthusiastically introduced herself.
"I now run a sports equipment store. I loved basketball when I was young. Like Christopher, we are both avid basketball fans. Of course we are Lakers fans. Show time! At that time, the Los Angeles Lakers dominated the league. Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Worthy the Cobra. At that time, the game was still at the Great Western Forum, and the Lakers were invincible, so we just relied on buying..."
Despite Marcella's fierce appearance, once you get to know him better, you'll realize he's actually a talkative person.
But he seemed to talk a little too much, and almost accidentally let some things slip.
Christopher gave his brother a gentle kick to tell him to pay attention.
"Buy? What to buy?" Min Congda was half-obedient and asked curiously.
"Nothing, we bought Lakers season tickets to support the Lakers... Oh, by the way, Smart, you are the general manager of the Clippers, sorry."
After talking for a long time, Marcella seemed to remember that the young man opposite was from the Clippers, not the Lakers.
Min Congda didn't care and said: "It doesn't matter, I also like the Lakers very much. Who doesn't like the Lakers? By the way, bring me one of your signature pizzas and a steak."
Christopher said: "Okay, no problem, Mr. Smart, please wait a moment."
Christopher went to the kitchen to prepare the meal himself. Before leaving, he gently patted Marcella on the shoulder to remind him to keep his mouth shut.
As soon as his brother left, Marcella laughed and started talking again. He talked about his daughter and said: "Mr. Smart, thank you for taking care of me. My daughter said that she was able to work at the Clippers thanks to your promotion. From an intern to a full-time employee quickly. I would like to ask, are there any advantages in Ada that you appreciate so much? You know, my little daughter has not been particularly smart since she was a child, and her father has always been worried about her working in the team. It’s not good, it will cause more trouble for the team.”
Min Congda hurriedly said: "Oh no, no, Ada is very smart at work. She knows a lot about basketball. She is very quick and diligent in her work. She has helped me a lot. With her here, I feel that life and work are easy. a lot of."
Marcela's smile faded, and he said in a deep voice: "Last year, in December, before Christmas, I heard that she had a drink poured all over her by a few young fans in an away game in New York?"
Min Congda said: "Yes, the quality of those few New York fans was really bad. I scolded them, and they threw drinks at Ada. Later, I took Ada back to the hotel to change clothes, and then went back to Tracy McGrady Xun, those three brats will disappear, otherwise I..."
"Wait a minute? You take Ada back to the hotel to change clothes?"
"Yeah, she was in a panic at the time. I couldn't just watch her go back to the hotel by herself as a girl. I had to take her back... Oh, God, Madge, you didn't think I went upstairs to watch her change clothes, did you? No, no, I'm waiting in the lobby downstairs of the hotel."
Min Congda felt that something was wrong with Marcella's expression, and immediately understood that there might be some misunderstanding.
The smile on Marcella's face had completely disappeared, and he asked again: "Ada is your life assistant, so will she go to your home?"
Min Congda thought for a moment and said, "Uh... I've been there..."
Marcella suddenly asked harshly: "Did she not get through your phone one night, so she ran to your house to look for you! She was still drinking when she came back, and she was driving while drunk!"
Min Congda remembered that it was the time the Clippers won against the Jazz, and Min Congda couldn't get through on his phone.
Ada ran to the apartment worried, and Min Congda bought her a drink.
Unexpectedly, her father actually knew about it and still remembered it, so he came here to investigate.
"Oh, that time... something happened to me that time, I..."
Min Congda didn't know how to explain it for a while. Fortunately, Christopher noticed something was wrong and hurriedly came out to smooth things over.
"March, March! What are you doing! Mr. Smart is our distinguished guest, and he has always taken good care of Ada. Come on, come on, the kitchen needs your help, come on over here!"
Christopher struggled to pull his brother back to the kitchen and said, "Hey March, what are you doing? He is the real boss of this store and your daughter's boss."
Marcella said angrily: "He is my daughter's boss, but he can't...can't...fuck my daughter..."
Saying the last few words felt like it took all of Marcella's strength.
Christopher smiled and said: "Hey, how old is Ada? Why don't you allow her to fall in love?"
Marcella said: "I don't forbid her from falling in love, it's just... she just has to promise to get married!"
Christopher shook his head and said: "Marcella, my grandparents are not as conservative and stubborn as you. Ada has really grown up. Besides, I think this Smart is a good person..."
Marcella said anxiously: "He is Chinese!"
"What's wrong with the Chinese? Do you think Italians have a high status in the United States?"
"I...I don't know, my baby Ada, I won't allow anyone to bully her!"
"He didn't bully Ada, he was always helping Ada."
Marcela is eager to protect her daughter. In fact, he knows that Min Congda probably didn't do anything to his daughter and he takes good care of her.
Ever since Manager Smart landed in the Clippers, Ada would always talk about Mr. Smart and how Mr. Smart was doing when she got home at night, which made Marcella very curious. What kind of three-headed and six-armed person is this? His daughter thinks about him every day.
Now that I’ve seen it, it feels very ordinary.
At this time, Linda personally prepared pizza and steak to give to Min Congda.
Marcela grabbed it and said, "I'll give it to him!"
Marcella then picked up the salt and pepper shaker and sprinkled it on the pizza and steak!
"Hey, March, what are you doing!"
"Mind your own business Christopher! This is my little test for him!"
Christopher knew what his brother's temper was like, so he could only hold his forehead helplessly and watch Marcella take the pizza and steak sprinkled with salt and pepper and hand them to Min Congda.
Min Congda moved his index fingers while looking at the fragrant pizza and steak, but thought in his heart: "Oops, this pizza and steak taste good. Is his uncle really a chef? If the business does well, won't he lose the 500,000 yuan?" Am I so bad that I can just open a restaurant and meet a chef?"
As a result, Min Congda almost squirted out when he picked up a piece of pizza and put it in his mouth!
So salty!
But Min Congda held back. If he sprayed, it would hit Ada's father's face.
He endured the salty taste and chewed the pizza into his stomach slowly, then drank a glass of water.
"Well, it's not bad." Min Congda's words were salty in his mouth and sweet in his heart.
This level does not live up to expectations, it's terrible.
Take another bite of steak...holy crap, it's spicy! Where can I find steak with chili!
But he still managed to swallow the beef and gave a thumbs up.
“It’s great, the texture of the beef is very special.”
Just like that, Min Congda ate both the pizza and the beef.
My mouth felt like I had been in a war, it was bitter, astringent, dry and painful.
After drinking three glasses of water in one breath, Min Congda put the money on the table.
I am very satisfied with the food, but I have to say goodbye. I don’t need any change!
Min Congda left in a flash.
This time it was Marcella's turn to feel sorry for herself, and she suddenly felt that this guy was really good, and he was a man who could forcefully eat.
He picked up the money on the table and looked at it, thinking: "Twenty dollars... this is not enough. Why did you just leave?"
