Merry carefully glanced at Chris' expression, suddenly there was an explosion of complexity in her heart.
She didn't want to upset him. She bit the corner of her mouth and reached out to tug at the man's sleeve. She changed the subject cleverly. "Brother, are you still sick?"
?
Even though it had been a long time, the little girl could never forget the scene of seeing Chris lying limp on the hospital bed.
Chris lowered his head and saw that she was staring at him with bright eyes and sighed. "It doesn't hurt anymore."
He wasn't angry, and even if he did, he couldn't say anything rude to her.
Chris felt that this girl was deeply ingrained in his heart!
"Then why did you come to America, do you want to see me?" Merry jumped on the spot twice, tilted her head and leaned in front of Chris with a hopeful expression.
Did he come to accompany her for Chinese New Year?!
Chris looked at her, reached out his hand and rubbed the top of her head. "What do you think?!"
The smile on Merry's mouth gradually widened, and she rushed into his arms cheering. "Brother, you are the best!"
Seeing the young girl's active and vibrant appearance, Chris also smiled.
He stretched out his arms to pull her slender waist closer and let her roll flirtatiously in his embrace.
After a while, the bodyguard was dumbfounded at the sight.
What is this scene called?
How come she acted spoiled in the arms of Mr. Chris ...?
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was so wrong!
One of the bodyguards bumped into the arm of his comrade. "Hey, is this situation... normal?"
His friend stared at him blankly. "If I say it's normal, will you believe it?"
"Then... Do you want to report it?"
After those words fell, the two of them fell silent.
It's hard to believe that they still had to talk about this.
Will this report cause unnecessary trouble to the patriarch of the family?
The two bodyguards looked at each other, and finally decided to take another look.
...
On this day, Chris took Merry and ate on the streets.
The little girl was beaming with joy, and it wasn't until three in the afternoon that they did not return to the apartment with their big bags.
After parking, Chris remembered something important!
Damn it!
Having too much fun walking alone with Merry made him forget that Lilia and Jean were still waiting for them.
"Brother?" Merry carried her two bags and stood outside the car's door, bending over and looking at them.
What happened?
Chris seemed guilty!
He glanced at her and didn't say a word. After he got out of the car, he carried the heavy stuff from the little girl's hand, left her only a snack bag, and the two of them climbed upstairs.
On the elevator, he sent a message to Lilia.
He didn't dare send it to Jean. After confirming they were in the room, he led the little girl to their floor.
Merry hummed a few songs along the way, until she followed Chris and stood at the front of the apartment, and glanced at the house number above. She panicked and hurriedly tugged at his sleeve. "Brother, this is the wrong door. My apartment is not on this floor!"
She looked around blankly, the corridor's style was all the same, but it was clear that the room number was wrong.
Chris used his strength to drag her to his side. "Come on, knock on the door and see!"
Merry is confused, whose room is this?!
In a suspicious mood, she quickly reached out and knocked, then immediately took a step back and put her little hand behind her again.
Seeing her movements, Chris smiled faintly. When the door was opened from the inside with one click, a slender and elegant figure appeared at the door along with the evening sun.
Merry narrowed her eyes at the bright light, she raised her hand to block it and leaned forward to see…
"Sis Lilia…"
The corners of Merry's eyes were filled with joy as she ran towards Lilia in one motion.
The little girl was so excited, she didn't forget to push Chris away as she rushed into Lilia's embrace.
Merry and Lilia were very close, it only took one second for her to hug Lilia. Since she was so enthusiastic, Lilia hugged too hard.
"Cough..."
The little girl was choked in this way, her hand had touched Lilia's shoulder, but she had to stay where she was.
"Hey, what are you doing! Don't squeeze her!" Chris grabbed Merry by the collar and pulled her away.
Of course this is just kidding!
If Merry kept hugging Lilia and injuring her stomach, Jean might send him and Merry to hell without thinking.
Chris pulled Merry to the door, and said in a deep voice, "Don't be reckless, Lilia isn't alone now!"
After she finished speaking, Merry took a deep breath, and faintly looked over Lilia's shoulder to see Jean who was walking out of the bedroom!
Shit, she's not alone! Jean Widjaya is here.
She blinked, her hands hanging to the side and smiling sweetly. "Brother, I miss you so much!"
In front of Jean, she didn't dare to cause trouble!
At this time, Lilia saw the interaction between Merry and the little girl that she had not seen for a long time. Merry still looks so lively and cute. Lilia didn't care about her escape, and said with a smile, "Merry, long time no see!"
Merry's eyes were full of stars. When she saw Jean going into the kitchen, she let out a relieved sigh and asked with a smile, "Sister, how are you feeling? I hope you feel better. Is there any inconvenience? How long will you stay here? Or did you move here?"
"It's okay, don't worry. I came to spend the New Year with you here!" Lilia said. She then glanced at the door. Watching the bag the man was carrying, she joked, "Looks like you like to eat, huh?"
When Merry heard this, she wanted to hide the bag behind her, and then hand it over to Lilia. "Sister... I bought it for you."
Lilia saw the brown beans and colorful potato chips in the bag, looking dumbfounded.
This afternoon, Merry was very happy.
Today has been the happiest day since she went to school in the United States.
Lilia is here and comes to celebrate Chinese New Year with her. Suddenly, she is looking forward to this New Year!
… …
That night, a group of four left the apartment and went to Chinatown for dinner.
Merry was sitting beside the driver like a little sparrow, and kept pointing out the window, as if she was some sort of a tour guide.
"Sis, a little ahead there, that's where I usually watch a movie. "
"There's an ice cream shop too, which is really good. I heard it was once the location for a blockbuster movie."
"Here, Chinatown is here!"
Along the way, Merry's chirping voice can be heard throughout their journey.
Chinatown is located on LA Sunset Avenue.
On approaching, the first thing they see is the gates of the ancient capital with its unique characteristic.
Time is getting late, and red lanterns on both sides of the road illuminate the antique scene.
Then they set foot in the Chinatown area. Perhaps because the New Year is just around the clock, they can feel a strong atmosphere here.
After touring a few times, Merry suggested eating hot pot there.
She had heard from many of her classmates that Chinatown in LA is home to the oldest Chinese community in America.
The hot pot restaurant she pointed to is also very famous.
