Chapter 11 Inappropriate Confession

In fact, Jia Huan knows what is in the lake, but he doesn't want to provoke these things on his own initiative. Of course, if someone comes to him or asks him to help, it is mainly because of Joseph who wants to find something for him to solve his income problem, such as playing a psychic, he usually does a good job. This is due to his nature as a practitioner. Sometimes he will take action when he encounters it himself.

This is what he said to Joseph, and he also has a job. In addition to this, he does have a job, at least it seems to be a job that supports his livelihood, that is, hunting, and then handing over the prey to Joseph to sell it for some money. This was once joked by Joseph that he lived an Eskimo life.

Many people in the town don’t know Jia Huan’s lifestyle because they don’t know much about him. Of course, there are also times when Joseph’s friends have any difficulties. When Joseph’s consent is obtained, he will ask him to go out for help.

Of course this is a charge.

Just like the most common psychic in the United States, this is what Jia Huan is best at doing now. However, it is only limited to the introduction Joseph gave him. Ordinary people will not easily agree to do it. However, this also adds to the mystery in the hearts of people in the town.

Jia Huan returned to his cabin, but when he came, he saw Joseph's pickup truck parked in the ceiling in front of his house. Joseph and Lisa were sitting on the balcony. They were talking, and when they saw Jia Huan's car driving in, they stood up and waved and smiled at him.

After parking the car, Jia Huan went up. Lisa opened her arms, hugged him gently, and whispered in his ear: "Thank you, Huan, I...I have always treated you..."

"Don't talk about this, we are good friends, aren't we? So are your father and I." Jia Huan gently patted her back, then let go, and hugged Joseph gently, letting go.

"You know where my key is placed." Jia Huan took out the key from a potted plant next to the front desk, opened the door, let the two of them go in, and let them sit in the living room himself.

"If you are here to say thank you, it doesn't make any sense, but if you are here for dinner, I think it means a lot to me, because I haven't cooked to entertain guests in person for a long time." Jia Huan said, and walked into the kitchen. Soon, he brought out two cups of coffee.

After so many years, he has become accustomed to coffee entertaining guests. If it is himself, he prefers to drink tea. However, there is very little tea available here, even if it is online shopping, it is difficult to deliver it here. When he goes to the supermarket once, he can only buy black tea from Britain.

"I do want to say thank you." Joseph smiled. He knew that Jia Huan didn't care about these forms. "But Lisa insisted on coming. She must do what she insisted on, so... But Huan, I owe you too much."

Jia Huan also sat down, took a sip of coffee and looked at Lisa and smiled: "How do you feel now? The police have found Sean Brell's body. Almost everyone in the town knows about this. What do you think?"

"It's so disgusting. I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I heard some people who saw it. I really don't know what he encountered. This is God's punishment for him..." Despite this, the expression on Lisa's face still couldn't stop that disgusting expression. Yes, no matter who sees or hears, that situation will be very disgusting.

"Sit first. There are some blueberry cakes you brought last time. I'll go cook!" Jia Huan stood up and walked towards the kitchen. While walking, he said, "Just in the refrigerator, go get it yourself."

When Jia Huan walked into the kitchen, Lisa jumped up happily, walked towards the refrigerator next to the kitchen, reached out, pulled open the refrigerator, and said to Jia Huan who was busy in the kitchen: "Do you need my help? I can make salads or fry steaks, what do you have here..." Then she came over.

"No, I don't need help here." Jia Huan glanced at it, shook his head, and just sat in the living room.

Lisa walked towards Jia Huan as if she hadn't heard it, then stood behind him, pursed her lips, suddenly stretched out her hand, hugged Jia Huan's waist, and pressed her face against Jia Huan's back, "I know you like me, you saved me twice, once when I was a child, and once now... these are all what my father told me..."

Jia Huan turned around, raised his hand and patted Lisa's head and smiled: "Wait until you are twenty-six years old, come and say this to me again. Do you know what I mean..."

Lisa let go of her hand and looked at Jia Huan in shock: "Why should she be twenty-six years old? Sixteen is enough. I know what I am talking about and what I am doing..."

"Don't test me in your way!" Jia Huan looked at Lisa and frowned, "You must also know that you are playing with fire. I don't like this, okay? And... I am your father's friend, I watched you grow up. That's all, okay?" As he said that, he patted Lisa's shoulder.

Lisa curled her lips, said nothing, just turned around and left.

This seems to be just an episode. Jia Huan would not have thought that Lisa had such an idea. Of course, it might be the girl's temporary feeling. She saved her twice, which easily made her feel a little fond of her. Besides, Lisa had always felt a little distance towards herself before, and she didn't like to come here, and even communicated with her very little.

Dinner was very simple, it was the steak fried by Jia Huan, and his skills were very average. Even for more than a hundred years, his skills had not improved much. This was not as good as Joseph, and even Lisa.

This little girl has a good cooking skills, at least Jia Huan had eaten the dinner she made. So Lisa just frowned and shook her head at Jia Huan: "The heat is too old, and she has lost the fresh and tender taste of the beef, and you have put too many seasonings..."

"Lisa--" Joseph called out to her. Lisa was rude to do so.

"I'm just telling the truth. There are always some people saying compliments in a hypocritical way. You said just now that the taste was great, but... it tasted really good? Dad!" Lisa looked at Joseph and then looked at Jia Huan, "I will make the dinner in the future. You can go to my house to eat, or I come to you to make it, you can choose your own choice." This girl is really domineering.

Jia Huan shook his head: "I don't know how to choose either. Lisa, I don't like steak, I like Chinese food! That's the difference." As he said that, he stuffed the sliced ​​beef slices on the plate into his mouth piece by piece.

The atmosphere of the dinner didn't seem to be very good, and Lisa left in the end very depressed. However, the sixteen-year-old girl was very fickle, and Jia Huan was not very worried about this. He has not encountered women who like him, and he does not refuse to love men and women, but he is not devoted to it.

This is similar to the cultivation method of Lu Zu, who was cultivated by him. Wine, sex, wealth and energy are taboos for cultivators, but it is not Lu Zu's taboos. When Lu Zu practiced, this would become a kind of help for him. However, Jia Huan would not deliberately pursue these things.

After dinner, Lisa took the initiative to wash dishes. Jia Huan and Joseph sat in the living room to drink tea.

"Lisa confessed to me in the kitchen just now!" Suddenly Jia Huan said to Joseph. Although the voice was very light, Joseph's mouthful of tea almost spewed out.

He opened his mouth wide and looked at Jia Huan in surprise, with a little shocked expression on his face. Yes, he was shocked. This sentence was too impactful to him. His hand holding the teacup was held stiffly in the air.

"What? Can you say it again?"

He stammered and said to Jia Huan.

"Lisa just said in the kitchen that she likes me very much and wants to be with me!" Jia Huan's expression was nothing, she was very calm, and even raised the tea cup leisurely and took a sip of tea, then she looked at Joseph gently.

"My God--" Joseph finally reacted, put the teacup on the table, covered his chest, and couldn't help but scream in a low voice, "This... how is this possible?"

Jia Huan shrugged his shoulders, and Joseph fell into a state of being a little crazy.

After a while, he adjusted his mood, looked straight at Jia Huan, and asked with some anticipation: "So... what do you mean? You won't agree, right?"

Jia Huan spread his hands and smiled: "Do you think I'm telling you about this to make you agree? I know how old I am, and she is only sixteen years old. More importantly, she is your daughter and you are my friend. I don't mind love between men and women, but you have to meet the right person and the right time. Obviously, I'm not suitable for you now."

Joseph let out a long sigh and shrugged his shoulders: "I really don't know what to say. When I first heard you say it, yes, what should I call you in the future? Or how should we get along with each other? To be honest, huan, you are a great man, I always think it's Lisa..."

"Lisa is a child who has not grown up, right? I know, don't worry, nothing you worry about will happen!" Jia Huan picked up the teacup and raised it to Joseph, "She will understand, she will wake up."
