Chapter 85 No Pains, No Gains
Seeing Charlotte's cheeks puffing out, Nelson was quite happy. He stared at her with interest and asked, "Does it taste good?"
Charlotte was speechless and thought, "The hot chicken soup has no taste at all! It's not delicious at all!"
But under the authority of Nelson, Charlotte nodded.
In fact, this hot chicken soup was very thick. But patients who had a cold had a bitter taste in their mouth and naturally wanted to eat something with a good taste.
Nelson fed Charlotte half a bowl of the soup and stopped when she really couldn't eat anymore. Charlotte felt that Nelson looked at her like he was looking at his pet, exactly the same as when Charlotte watched stray cats eating.
The fever had completely subsided, but Charlotte was weak and couldn't be blown by the wind for the time being. Nelson asked the doctor to see Charlotte again. After confirming that there was no problem, Nelson let the doctor go.
Because of illness, Charlotte was in a bad state and had been in a daze all the time. After dinner, she went directly to bed. When she woke up the next day, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
Nelson sat at his desk and read the documents. Charlotte had inadvertently caught a glimpse of those documents, which included company reports and plans, financial plans, and many military things. Nelson never seemed to be wary of Charlotte and placed such important things casually.
Charlotte was not interested in them and didn't want Nelson to think that she had bad ideas. She got up by herself, and Nelson heard the sound and glanced over. He said, "You're awake?"
"Yes." Charlotte got out of bed barefoot, folded the quilt neatly, and then went into the bathroom to wash up.
"Feeling better today?" Nelson asked without raising his head.
Charlotte looked at the sharp side face lines of Nelson and replied softly, "Yes, I'm all right now."
"Then change your clothes." Nelson put the file in his hand aside and smiled slightly. He continued, "I will take you out to have fun."
...
When Charlotte was asleep, Nelson once asked Waylon a few questions.
For the first question, he asked Waylon if he had been too much to Charlotte before.
Waylon admired Nelson so much and certainly praised him, "It's impossible! Ms. Lopez belongs to you, so you can treat her as you like. No matter how you treat her, it is a matter of course."
Nelson knew it was Waylon's falsehood even though he was 32 feet away, and his face was extremely terrible.
For the second question, he asked Waylon how to coax a girl.
This made it difficult for Waylon.
If Nelson asked how to kill the president of Keswon quietly, Waylon would come up with ten perfect assassination plans within three seconds, but how to coax a girl...
Waylon felt it was too difficult to answer this question.
At first, Waylon thought he could google everything he didn't know. After all, it was the era of science and technology. However, when he saw the search box full of answers, like "How can I coax my girlfriend when she is angry?" "What kind of gift is better for a girlfriend's birthday?" "When the girl saw this, she was moved and cried!" and so on, Wayne was speechless.
After seeing the unreliable things, Waylon decided to tell Nelson sincerely that he really didn't know how to coax a girl. But when he turned his head, he found that Nelson was on the phone with someone. Nelson said casually, "Matthew, I want to ask you a question."
Matthew probably thought that Nelson wanted to discuss with him the current very tense relations between Guabia and Keswon or the assassination plan of the National Security Agency. Matthew put down the pen in his hand and said seriously, "Go ahead."
Nelson said, "How to coax a girl, who will be eighteen years old in a few months?"
Matthew was speechless.
For the first time in Matthew's life, he hung up Nelson's phone.
