I smiled. "I'm Louie. Do you have time to get off work?"
He didn't seem to have expected that I would suddenly ask such a question. After a moment of hesitation, he smiled and said, "Generally, I always have time to invite beautiful women."
"Are you saying that you don't reject women?" I deliberately misunderstood what he meant and pretended to be confused.
"When did I say that I won't reject women?"
I shrugged. "You wouldn't even refuse an invitation from a beauty. Wouldn't that mean that you wouldn't turn her down?"
"You really know how to take advantage of others." Louie was amused by my explanation. "I thought your focus would be on the beauty. I didn't expect that you wouldn't keep up with my routine."
"There are too many tricks. I like to go in the opposite direction."
This is definitely what I'm thinking. I've experienced too much, so I'm tired. I just want to live a good life.
I could feel that Louie was different from Callen and Harrison. He was not the same kind of person. If such a person could be friends, it would only be good for me. And what Louie said in the emergency passage just now, he said that he wanted to know his identity, and he would know it in the afternoon.
To be honest, I don't even know who Louie is. I don't care about other people's gossip. It's my duty as a human being. But somehow, I want to know who Louie is.
I remember that when I was with Harrison, he taught me a lot of things. One of them was that if I didn't want to be bullied, I had to learn to become strong. Now I want to become stronger step by step, so that people who used to look down on me would regret it.
Also, with the death of my mother, I will never forget the two suspects — Shi Chun and Callen, and I will never let them go. If they want to wander in front of me, I will let them stroll slowly. I will never let them go...
The meeting in the afternoon was very successful. From the beginning to the end, Callen did not say a word. As for Louie's identity, I did not find anything strange.
According to what I said before the meeting, I made an appointment with Louie, so we went straight to the snack street after work. On the way, I didn't forget to explain, "We are going to the snack street now, not the place where successful people like you have been in your career."
"A successful person?" Louie smiled. "I don't know what kind of successful person you are talking about."
"It's just like you. You're dressed in a suit and wear leather shoes. When you go out, you walk in a car. Don't you think you're a successful person?"
Of course, this was not flattery. Besides, I couldn't do that. I simply thought that Louie was a successful person.
Although he was not as young and promising as Harrison, he was not bad.
After hearing what I said, Louie smiled. So on the way to the snack street, he had not been in an awkward state. Different from what I thought before, Louie was not an old-fashioned person. He was a person who could play with others.
Looking at the delicious food, I said with emotion, "Think about our food in the company. Compared with what we have now, I feel that I ate nothing before."
"Then what are you eating?" he asked.
I cast a quick look at him and chuckled. "I'm sure you're just a pig!"
If Louie came with someone else and didn't come with me, I believed that he wouldn't have accompanied me from the first place to the last place of the snack street. Whether I ate or didn't eat, he wouldn't stop.
