A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 50

The old man's mood improves a lot, "Did you have dinner, or let ask May to give you some supper?"

"Yes, and I am not hungry now."

"Then I'll give you something to drink." The old man gets up and goes to the kitchen. He takes a cup of coffee from the refrigerator and places it in front of Louis, "It's been freezing, and it hasn’t gone bad."

"Milk coffee?" Louis is dumbfounded, "It has too much creamer. I won't drink it."

"Just one cup once in a while. It’s no big deal." The old man glares at him and says, "You haven’t hit thirty. Why do you care so much about this? You are not as easy-going as an old man!"

"..."

Louis thinks he can’t refuse anymore, so he takes a sip and then frowns.

It’s very sweet, but it tastes not bad.

The old man asks, "How is it?"

"Not bad." Louis looks at the milk coffee and smiles, "Are you waiting for me to come back at night just to give me a cup of milk coffee?"

"Yeah, I went out to play today, and a kid recommended it to me." The old man says with a sigh, "But maybe I'm really old. I was almost driven out when I came to the store today."

Hearing this, Louis's face is somber, and he says coldly, "Which store, tell me, I will ask David to dismiss all the people on duty that day."

"Forget it, they are just making a living. Maybe I dressed too plain today." The old man waves his hand and pushes the gift box on the coffee table to Louis. "Your birthday is coming. I pick you a gift. Just open it."

Louis opens the box. There are two ties of Armani's.

"Very nice."

"Yeah, I think too." Louis, who is always picky, is also satisfied with the ties. The old man straightens his back and is somewhat proud. "It’s also that kid picked them for me."

"You always mention that kid. Did you meet it today?" Louis asks with a smile, "It seems that kid makes you very happy. I want to see it when I'm free."

Louis rarely sees the old man being so happy when he comes back.

"I'm afraid there is no chance." The old man sighs. He thinks that beautiful girl has been married. How can they covet her?

Thinking of getting married, the old man looks at Louis and asks tentatively, "Louis, you have been busy abroad. Did you meet a girl you like?"

"Not yet."

The old man sighs and begins to breach, "Don't be too picky, find the one you like too. I'm not that old-fashioned, and don't care what your uncles say.

"Louis, you are raised by me. You are alone since childhood. I don't want you to be alone when I leave the world. I also want to see you have your own wife and children."

Then the old man jokes, "Look at your uncles, they are married, and some have three children. And you? If I really leave, then my property will fall in their hands. If you don’t have a wife and no children, how much can you get?"

"You will live for a hundred years." Louis says in a deep voice. "Even if I have pay much, I will let you stay healthy."

The old man is very pleased to hear his words, but he says, "When people get old, they will definitely have to experience life, death and illness. I no longer care about that, but I care about you."

Looking at Louis who is tall and handsome, a touch of complexity flashes his eyes.

The Smith family owes this child too much.

"Just take your time." After a while, Louis says, "I'm going to work abroad in a few days. When I deal with my work, I will come back and I must bring my wife back."

"Okay, if you can’t, don’t find the excuse that you are busy." The old man finally smiles, and persuades him, "You can’t earn all the money. How good it is to start a relationship like the young men."
