Chapter 598: Jack is in high spirits
Compared to Beijing, the temperature in Los Angeles was much higher. As soon as Fu Wan got off the plane, she felt a wave of heat hitting her face.
Most people around me were wearing shirts, and my thick coat did seem a bit out of place.
Fortunately, they also brought spring and autumn clothes. Jack drove here. He hadn't seen them for half a year and was very excited at this moment.
"Wan, let me tell you, my fishing skills are pretty good now. You take a day off first, and I'll take you fishing tomorrow!"
After saying that, he winked at Fu Wan. Bai Qianzhou narrowed his eyes, inadvertently blocking his view.
"Fishing, is there a sea nearby?"
Fu Wan glanced at Bai Qianzhou. They had looked at the approximate map provided by the camp before coming here. The thing was in the waters of the Florida Keys.
As for the sea near Los Angeles, they really didn't pay much attention to it.
But Jack didn't pay attention to Fu Wan's question, but was looking at Bai Qianzhou with bulging eyes.
Hey, why haven’t I seen this person before?
Jack glanced at Bai Qianzhou suspiciously. He thought the man next to Fu Wan was Fu Ming, but he didn't expect it to be Zhang Sheng.
The last time he came, Bai Qianzhou happened to be very busy, so the two had not met.
As their eyes met, an invisible force collided with each other. Fu Wan was walking towards the parking lot. When she turned her head, she found that the two men were staring at each other.
"What are you two doing standing there? Stop standing there and get going!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
Bai Qianzhou glanced at Jack and hurriedly followed with his things.
Jack was a little confused. Why was this Chinese man glaring at him? It was so strange.
However, he had a childish temper and immediately put this emotion behind him.
Compared to getting to know Bai Qianzhou, he was more looking forward to going out to sea with Fu Wan again.
Jack drove a gray Volkswagen Santana. After Bai Qianzhou put the luggage away, Fu Wan got into the back seat. Jack was still a little dissatisfied with this and opened the passenger door, signaling to Fu Wan, "Wan, here!"
His Chinese proficiency has actually improved a lot, but when he is anxious he still instinctively speaks his native language.
Bai Qianzhou had originally opened the back door, but when he saw this, he raised his eyebrows, closed the back door, and sat in the passenger seat.
This wave of operations stunned Jack, and he said "oh man" several times.
The Santana was quite comfortable, and after Fu Wan got in, her eyes were fixed on the scenery outside the window.
The United States in the 1980s was already very international, and compared to Beijing, it did look more high-end.
The pedestrians on the street were wearing all kinds of clothes. Fu Wan even saw many fashionable beauties wearing suspender dresses and sunglasses.
At first glance, I thought I had returned to modern times.
"Where are we going now?"
Bai Qianzhou was worried that Jack didn't understand, so he automatically repeated it in English.
His accent was so pure that Jack instinctively replied, "To my house?"
"Home? How about we go to the hotel?"
Fu Wan hadn't planned to live in Jack's house from the beginning. They wouldn't be staying in Los Angeles for long, so she didn't want to cause them any trouble.
Jack did not refuse the proposal because he had limited funds and was currently renting a house.
Houses in the United States have to pay taxes every year. Fu Fengying was too lazy to bother with it because she was old, so she bought a small villa in a small town.
However, they were far away from downtown Los Angeles, and Fu Wan and the others were exhausted from the long journey. Jack planned to wait until they had rested before visiting Fu Fengying.
Fu Wan listened with great interest to Jack's chatter.
The hotel was booked near the house Jack rented. After sending Fu Wan and Bai Qianzhou to the hotel, Jack went to arrange the matters related to the sea voyage for the next two days.
Fu Wan and Bai Qianzhou each have one hotel room, and the rooms are next to each other.
Bai Qianzhou took care of booking the hotel and paying the bill. Fu Wan carried the luggage into the room and then washed herself from head to toe.
What was surprising was that there was a hair dryer in the hotel. Fu Wan had just dried her hair when she heard someone knocking on the door.
"Awan, open the door, it's me."
Bai Qianzhou's steady voice came in, and Fu Wan hurried forward to open the door.
"I just went downstairs to buy some food. You can just eat something first."
Although we took a plane for the whole journey, the huge difference in time was still too much for my body to bear.
Fu Wan took the paper bag and looked at it. Sure enough, it was full of fried chicken, hamburgers and cola, full of foreign characteristics.
"have you eaten?"
Bai Qianzhou shook his head. Everything he bought was here.
"Then let's sit down and eat together."
Fu Wan put the luggage on the table aside. Seeing this, Bai Qianzhou did not hesitate and took out everything in the bag.
"By the way, there's something I didn't give you."
Bai Qianzhou suddenly remembered something, put down what he was holding and turned back into his room.
Fu Wan was a little confused. When Bai Qianzhou came over again and saw what he was holding in his hand, she couldn't help but be surprised for a few seconds.
"How did you bring this thing out?"
Oh my God, there were two wooden handles in Bai Qianzhou’s box!
Bai Qianzhou smiled and said, "I didn't bring it with me. I asked a friend to buy it for me."
"I just went downstairs to buy something and bumped into him."
The dangers they encountered this time were all unknown. Bai Qianzhou thought for a long time and decided that he had to get some protection for himself and Fu Wan.
Sun Shaoping also acquiesced to this matter. As long as nothing serious happened, the embassy would help them.
"That's awesome! We can actually use this stuff!"
The wooden warehouse was no different from the one she used before. Fu Wan took a look at it and put it back in the box.
Bai Qianzhou pushed the box under her bed. Seeing this, Fu Wan couldn't help but ask, "Don't you need it?"
"I still have some."
Okay, Fu Wan also admires him. He can hold a scalpel and also handle firearms.
The two of them had a simple meal, and Bai Qianzhou went back to his room to rest.
I was exhausted from the long journey and didn’t sleep well on the plane.
Fu Wan slept until early the next morning. When Jack came over, he brought breakfast with him.
"Have you guys rested well? I've contacted a car. We're going to Aunt's place today. There's a sea area there where we can try fishing!"
Jack was very excited. He really thought Fu Wan was here to visit relatives.
Although he didn't know why Fu Wan suddenly came to the United States, he felt that this was what Fu Fengying meant by visiting relatives!
With the excuse of visiting relatives, one naturally has to do some face-saving work.
Fu Wan agreed immediately, "Okay, after breakfast we'll pack up and leave!"
They have to stay in Los Angeles for two days before going to Florida to see the situation.
Except for the sea that will be polluted by nuclear waste water in the future, the current sea, no matter which area it is, must be very good!
