"You didn't see it. She just wore a very plain skirt," Christy said to Trevor, "Without makeup, her skin is really good."
Trevor smiled.
Arabella had been fighting against the family. She wanted to separate the Pecks from the family, to which she devoted more than half a year. In the past six months, she not only spun off all the current businesses of the Pecks from the family business a little bit, but also sold the shares in the family business a little bit, and then slowly delegated power until the whole family was dissatisfied with her and chose another person to take over family businesses.
Then she began to call for the dissolution of the family in council meetings. For a time, the Pecks made a great disturbance.
Of course, this kind of serious matter couldn't be solved overnight. Arabella had always been working in the company, or going home, or going to the family to hold family meetings. The Pecks she represented were the first to say that they wanted to leave the family, but several respected elders in the family said that no one had ever had this kind of thought in a century, and it would be impossible to set this precedent for her. If so, what if someone continued to leave the family? Were the Pecks going to completely decline?!
The elders in the family kept stopping them, and the Pecks were unable to leave the family, so the situation was completely stagnant.
Trevor said the moon cake made by Arabella tasted bad, but he finished the chocolate one.
In the evening, Trevor, Christy, and Noah had already watched a movie before Ferne woke up. When Ferne walked to the sofa and sat down, he asked awkwardly, "I haven't done anything shameful, have I?"
Trevor looked at him with pure eyes.
He breathed a sigh of relief, "Ah, I was scared to death, I thought I..."
Christy turned on the phone and played a video. Whereupon, Ferne's drunken voice came from the phone, "Next, I will show you a performance called A Monkey Steals the Peach... "After the monkey stole the peaches with his sound effects, Ferne started a striptease show.
The video wasn't over, Ferne knelt on the carpet, "Dear Christy, I beg you, please delete it."
"I can't delete the video so simply." Christy played with her fingers.
Ferne took out his wallet and car key from his pocket, "Tell me what you want. Except for my body, you can get anything you want."
"Who cared about your body?" Christy's eyes lit up and she pointed at the TV, "You can show us a performance of The Little Swans."
"What?" Ferne asked, extending his neck, "What are you talking about?"
"Little Swan--" Christy demonstrated, "Stand up on your toes, then jump up, spin, and jump in the middle... Okay, you should perform now."
Ferne broke down, "Dear Christy, just let go of me."
"Jump or not?" Christy opened her Moments and clicked the upload.
"Jump!" Ferne immediately jumped up. He stood up on his toes, holding his stomach, and began to jump to the center. He was jumping very seriously. However, when he saw Noah, who had just come out of the kitchen and spouted the drink just drunk.
As a result, Ferne's sense of conviction disappeared, "Noah! What are you doing?"
Noah wiped his face and tried not to laugh, "Nothing, you can continue."
Christy and Trevor rolled on the sofa laughing at Ferne.
Noah, who was smoking by the side of the kitchen, was laughing quietly. Ferne held his belly and continued to spin and jump ... Christy had asked him to spin one lap, but he spun more than a dozen laps.
After dinner and coming out of Trevor's house with Noah, Ferne felt the late pain in his toes.
"Fuck!" He tilted his toes and walked with his shoulders high, "My toes seem to be broken, they are numb and painful."
"Oh," Noah said indifferently.
"Oh my god! Noah! To make your sister happy, my toes hurt. Do you have any sympathy?" Ferne said angrily.
"I think you were having fun too."
"Bullshit! Did I have fun?"
"Yes."
"Fuck! You're driving me mad!"
They quarreled to the gate of the community. The car stopped at the doorway. Ferne walked with a twisted gait like an octopus. At that time, a man and a woman came in at the door. When the woman saw Ferne, she paused and said, "Ferne? Why are you here?"
"Lili?" Ferne looked up and saw her, only to find this person out of his memory in a daze, and then thought gloomily, "Ah, I had been divorced from her for more than half a year."
Then he glanced at the man beside her. He was not bad.
"Yes, why are you here?" Lili looked at Noah after asking. She met Noah when Ferne was in the hospital. At that time, because Ferne had a bad attitude towards her, the two fought. Thinking of this, she felt funny. As time flies, those memories have passed so long.
"Come to my friend's house for dinner." Ferne answered concisely, then he looked at her and asked, "How about you? Do you live here?"
Lili nodded, "Yes, I bought a suite here before, so I live here."
"This is...?" Ferne asked, and unconsciously straightened his back. Although she was his ex-wife, he wanted to show his superiority in front of his ex-wife's new boyfriend. This was a secret contest between men.
"My boyfriend," Lili explained, "He sent me back."
"Oh," Ferne asked, nodding, "Where do you live?"
"It's here on the sixth floor." Lili finished speaking and looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong? Are you going to come in?"
"No, I will send you off with him." Ferne smiled politely at the man beside Lili, "You don't mind, do you?"
Lili said nothing.
Therefore, Ferne, whose toes hurt, walked back and sent Lili to the door of her house.. Subsequently, he took the elevator with Lili's new boyfriend.
