Under normal circumstances, a wife would be upset to see this.
But when I saw it, I was calmed and even felt that it had nothing to do with me at all.
Erin obviously didn’t think so.
She seemed worried that I couldn’t see them. She touched the kiss masks with her hand.
But I still didn’t look at it.
Doris looked at her contemptuously.
Only Briana worked quietly. It seemed that these things had nothing to do with her.
After we went downstairs, Ming put down his newspaper and went to the table.
Everything was as usual.
Lester finished eating. I wanted to take him to Linda’s house, but Ming asked me, “can you rest today? I want to show you something.”
“Huh?”
“Can you?”
Ming reconfirmed. His tone was sincere and his expression was gentle, but I felt pressure and didn’t know how to refuse.
I thought about it and agreed, “OK.”
As for Lester...
I didn’t know how long we would be out. In case we were out all day, I dare not let Erin take care of him.
I thought about it and said to Ming, “I want to send Lester to Linda’s house first...”
“OK! I made an appointment with Summer that I would go to her house today. Boys can’t break their words.”
Lester said when I finished.
He was like an adult.
When he finished, everyone laughed.
Ming looked at him and sighed helplessly, “OK, you can go there.”
After breakfast, Lester and I went out. Erin offered Ming clothes and shoes.
But she turned a blind eye to Lester and me.
I didn’t care.
I was afraid Ming wouldn’t let me go easily if I drove Erin away.
We sent Lester to Linda’s house. When we went downstairs, Ming took my hand and asked, “will Summer be our daughter-in-law in the future?”
“Ah?” I froze and said, “no, Lester’s a kid.”
“But I think he understands a lot of things.”
Ming said softly.
It was normal but I thought he meant something else.
I quickly changed the subject and asked him, “so where are we going today?”
He took a look at me and said, “you’ll know when you get there.”
The car arrived in front of a white building with more than 20 floors in the suburb of York. It was very remote and there was very little traffic.
There was only one front desk and no sign in the hall on the first floor.
Ming took me in. The receptionist saw him and said respectfully, “President Jessop.”
Then she took out the register.
Ming nodded and signed on it and moved on.
I immediately followed him.
He took me into the building and we took the elevator to the third floor.
I thought it was just an ordinary building, but when I got out of the elevator, I found it was really a high-tech experimental base.
Face, fingerprint and retina are recognized when entering and leaving.
The last time I saw this recognition was in a science fiction movie.
I never thought that this kind of thing existed in our life.
