“......”
Such a sudden sentence stunned people at the meeting.
Even Nathan was stunned, and then he looked at Kennedy with panic and said in a small voice remind, “Mr. Kennedy......”
One of the old men lifted his glasses, looking at Kennedy, “What did you say? Can you please repeat it, Mr. Kennedy?”
Kennedy was thinking about buying gifts for his son, so he naturally blurted out.
“What do kids like?”
Most of those attending the conference were middle-aged, and some were even old enough to have children and grandchildren, but not yet old enough to retire.
They were fathers and grandfathers, and with so many children in the family, they must know what children like.
One of them, a middle-aged man, looked into the eyes of the people around him and saw something incredible in each other's eyes.
Mr. Kennedy unexpectedly asked what kids loved in the meeting?
Why did he ask such a non-work-related question? But they had seen many strange things since they had been business for years.
The men looked at each other for a moment, but soon understood.
One of them asked, “Mr. Kennedy, do you want to buy a gift for a child?”
“Yes.” Kennedy pursed his lips and nodded, frowning.

“They can be dolls or building blocks. There are so many different kinds now. My wife often buys them for my daughter.”
Kennedy, “...”
Daughter.
It seemed like it would be nice to have a daughter, except that child was a boy.
“Wait a minute, why are you introducing before we've asked?”
Seeing that Kennedy was interested, everyone wanted to take credit, now the meeting turned into to please him.
“Mr. Kennedy, is it a boy or a girl? There's a big difference between what a girl and a boy like, and it's bad if you send the wrong gift.”
Kennedy nodded approvingly, “It is a boy.”
“For boys, it can be all kinds of models.”
Model?
Kennedy was familiar with this word, but kids play with this stuff, too?
“I'm talking about the kind designed for children, boys are naughty and like different things with girls. It can’t be a game machine, or flying cars and so on.”
“Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Kennedy, our family often buys...”
A group of people said a lot of examples. Kennedy pursed thin frowning.
A moment later he called out.
“Nathan.”
“Yes?”
Hearing his name, Nathan was stunned.
Soon, he got up and went to Kennedy.
“Mr. Kennedy?”
Kennedy glanced at him, pursed his lips, “Write down what they say.”
Nathan, “......”
