Clint thought for a while before finally speaking.
"Are there some new projects that needed my attention?"
"No!" Amos shook his head.
After that, he asked again, "Just tell me if you are well-versed with them!"
Clint nodded shyly, "Of course I am! I like to browse the Internet when I have free time. Some internet slang would pop up every now and then. There are a few popular ones right now, like 'Meme', 'Epic Fail1, 'Well Played' and so forth.
Amos was confused by the words that Clint was saying at this moment, and he seemed to recall what Eudora had said the night before.
"Has anyone ever told you that you are really old-fashioned?"
Amos, the old-fashioned man, felt insulted.
Coincidentally, Clint said, "Actually, internet slang is quite interesting. I could explain it to you if you are still unsure about it. For example, a meme refers to an image, text, or video that could be copied and modified over and over again. Some people would even copy and makes parodies and upload the videos on their Youtube channels.
Amos seemed completely lost.
He had never heard of this word all his life. In fact, it seemed that there was a specific way to pronouncing this word.
"That doesn't even make sense!" Amos said.
Clint smiled and said nothing.
After waiting for a long time, Amos said impatiently, "Meme..."
"Oh, well, we would usually share memes which are particularly interesting and relatable among each other. It is quite fun."
Amos, the old- fashioned man, was speechless. These young people were really adept at social media!
Wait. No, he should have rephrased himself. After all, he was still a young man himself!
He adjusted his mood and finally said with a proud face, "I already knew all about it. I just wanted to see if the people around me are smart enough to keep up with the times!"
It was Clint's turn to become speechless.
He was the boss, therefore, he was always right.
In the hotel.
Harley saw Thea lying in his arms with a flushed face when he woke up.
For the first time, a warm feeling rose in his heart.
He had always been a playboy. He even had one-night stands before. He did not do it very often, but come the next morning, they would always go their separate ways. He had never thought that there would be a day where he would be defeated by a woman.
At this moment, he had an urge to get married.
He wanted to marry Thea and be with her forever.
The woman in his arms did not sleep very well because of the hangover. At this moment, she suddenly frowned and murmured, "Headache..."
Harley's heart tightened. He got up hurriedly and changed his clothes and went out.
He was careless. He should have bought some painkillers for her last night.
Harley went straight to the pharmacy. He asked the staff repeatedly about the best painkiller they had in the pharmacy which would not leave any side effects. Then, he carefully chose one and paid for it.
The cashier asked him with a smile,
"Sir, are you buying this for your wife? Your wife is very lucky."
Harley nodded and said, "Yes!" That word seemed particularly pleasing when he heard it from someone else.
Harley thought, "Would Thea take my surname after she marries me and become Mrs. Louis?"
