Chapter 198: Treating the symptoms and the root causes

"You've grown a lot since last year!"

"It was her help, the moment I went upstairs."

"fine!"

"There is nothing good about it. If I had a choice, I would like to go back to the days when I could speak freely. When I understand that my words may have a serious impact on others, I feel like there is a lot more weight on my shoulders."

After swallowing the last bite of the Big Mac, Carter wiped his hands with a tissue and said. After taking another two sips of Coke, he picked up another French fries and scratched the ketchup:

"This feeling is very bad, as if there are many invisible ropes binding me. No one tells you that you can't do it or say it, but you just can't do it."

"Everything has a process. This is a stage you will definitely go through in your life, kid..."

He also reached out and twisted a French fries in the French fries box in front of Carter. Julian played with the French fries in his hand, leaving some starch mixed with oil on his fingertips, and sighed:

"But I support what you said. In retrospect, the days when we can speak freely are the happiest times in our lives. It is your regret that you missed this stage so early, but it may also be your luck.

Who knows?"

"At least, in my forty-eight years of life experience, I have never seen a young man as old as you who can support such a career."

"I wish you were lucky!"

Carter and Julian seemed to be having a serious conversation at first glance, but Lycoris was confused. In the end, until now, she still doesn't quite understand what happened to Carter...

After all, Julian had dined with Carter at a Sichuan restaurant last year, and had seen his cordial interaction with the fat boss. As for Lycoris, she could only roughly hear that something seemed to have happened to the owner of that restaurant.

Then Carter cared...

Licoris, who had been confused the whole time, followed Carter back to the hotel in confusion. The familiar room did not make Licoris feel shy.

She has long been used to it, and she even knows what Carter has thoughts about her. However, since Carter has been unwilling to give her a clear indication, she has only tried to seduce him briefly.

, give it up after just one or two trials.

Just when Likolis was about to repeat her same trick, she discovered that after Carter took off his clothes this time, he didn't even take a shower. He just threw him into the quilt and fell asleep...

"Aren't you going to take a shower?"

Is this still the Carter in my impression who must take a shower every day?!

"You go and wash, I have something to think about. Remember to turn off the light after washing!"

"Oh~"

Seeing that Carter seemed to have lost interest in her, Licoris walked into the bathroom a little aggrieved. On the other side, after Licoris left, Carter lifted the quilt covering his head.

My eyes were staring blankly out the window...

In New York, what she can do is too limited. And after she leaves, Chen Shuzhen might...

Carter believed that with the level of these rogue lawyers in New York, it would be no problem to scare a few people who could be said to be...well...ordinary families. There would also be no difficulty in scaring them into quickly apologizing.

But after this incident, Carter had to think about the matter more deeply.

Adults are always sensible and know the pros and cons. But what about children?

Will they put this debt on Chen Shuzhen's head again in the future after they leave New York?

If they do this, then their act of seeking justice for Chen Shuzhen and atonement for themselves will be the same as the previous teaching...no, instigating Chen Shuzhen to directly push back when faced with insults, which is extremely undesirable.

Be responsible.

It even caused secondary harm to the little girl!

But New York is not his territory after all, and he cannot stay here permanently. After carefully checking his connections in New York, Carter sadly discovered that at this stage, except Julian, he would support and help him without hesitation.

The rest are Soros and Peter Lynch. In the final analysis, there are two words: unfamiliar!

After thinking about it, Carter found that if the Fat Boss and his family were still in New York, there seemed to be nothing he could do. But if he was in Douglas...

From the mayor to the street vendors, it is impossible for anyone to disgrace him. Finding a way to convince the fat boss and his family to live with him back in Douglas seems to be the real solution to the root cause of the problem.

Even the fat boss’s career problem, doesn’t he happen to have a free shop in his hands? If it can be done, if he wants to eat Chinese food in the future, he won’t have to wait until he comes to New York during the holidays to eat...

However, judging from the current situation, it is difficult to convince the fat boss and his family!

Thinking about his troubles and listening to the sound of running water, Carter closed his eyes unknowingly. When Licoris came out of the bathroom, what he saw was a figure with his head tilted and sleeping soundly...

Walking gently to Carter's side, Lycoris stared at the man in front of her for a while, and finally sighed deeply, closed the curtains, and turned off the lights...

Early the next morning, as soon as Carter opened his eyes, he sadly discovered that he had a stiff neck!

With his head tilted to the left, he tried to straighten it even a little bit, but he felt a terrible pain shooting straight into the sky. Carter, who was already afraid of pain, had to tilt his neck to wash, get dressed, and lower his head.

building...

"You?! What new tricks are you doing?"

In the breakfast room downstairs, Julian, who had been waiting for a long time, put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at Carter, whose neck was crooked in front of him. He wanted to laugh, but at the same time he felt extremely incredible...

What kind of position should I take to achieve this effect?!

How outrageous!

"Forget it, I was lying on my side in bed thinking about something yesterday. It was about Chen Shuzhen. I planned to invite her family to settle in Douglas, but I was thinking about it and suddenly fell asleep. Then I woke up in the morning and it was like this...

.”

Carter knew that he looked a little funny at this time. He was wearing a dark brown striped suit, which was calm but not too old-fashioned. Paired with a red and white striped tie, it was originally a very solemn look, but now it looks like

He looks like Mr. Bean. But what can he do? If you have to be graceful, it hurts!

"Have you eaten yet? If not, have some together and go over there?"

"I came here after eating at home. You guys can eat, it's still early before SEC opens!"

The more he looked at Carter's crooked neck, the more he felt happy. Julian couldn't help but comment:

"Not to mention, your image is quite cheerful! I think the employees who met their new boss this afternoon will be very happy to meet an easy-going boss."

"What are you talking about being easy-going? You might as well say it's funny!"

While Carter complained helplessly, he put his arm around Licoris' shoulders and whispered in her ear:

"Please, please cooperate with me and lean your head closer, okay?"

"Pfft..."

Just when Carter was trying to save his respect, Julian added blankly:

"What does 'doubi' mean?!"
