Chapter 7 Because there is a reason
The next day, Lin Hai and Aunt Susan rushed to Los Angeles. Looking at the bustling Angel City, Lin Hai couldn't help but sigh, "Life is really changing!"
More than ten days ago, he was an ordinary boy with nothing, and now he can take root in this city known as one of the world's important centers of industry, commerce, international trade, science, education, entertainment and sports.
Soon, Lin Hai and Aunt Susan confirmed their address. It was not that luxurious, but it was not bad. At least, this place is no longer like the poor slum in the past. At least there is no need to worry about suddenly a crazy person breaking into the house with a gun. Although there may still be, it is better than the days that happened almost every day, right?
After buying the house, Lin Hai felt at ease. He thought about Aunt Susan's meticulous care for him in the past, but now he finally has the opportunity to repay him! He doesn't want to leave any money to prevent any problems in the future. He knows what it means to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son does not raise him but does not wait for him. Therefore, he can buy this house with peace of mind, so Lin Hai never minds spending the money he can spend.
The house before was quoted by Aunt Susan, and the two of them moved over the things they could use. The next step was to exercise well.
On that day, Lin Hai put down the refrigerator in his hand and just picked up his phone and received a call from Xiao.
"Hey, Lin, why haven't I answered the phone for a day? You can't be happy in any hotel, right?" Xiao quipped.
Lin Hai smiled and replied, "No, I'm moving furniture."
"Oh" Xiao already knew about Lin Hai's move to Los Angeles. He thought to himself, it seems that this kid is really confident in him, but that's fine. Even if the contract expires in the future, Lin Hai's first choice will still be the Lakers.
"By the way, you'll go to the boss's side. There is a traditional Lakers party there. It starts at 3 pm, don't be late," Xiao instructed.
"Also, remember to wear formal and handsome," Xiao said a little obscenely after thinking about it.
Hearing this, Lin Hai was so amused that he could not have any formal clothes over the years. Even the clothes he had borrowed on the night of the talent show. After looking at the time, Lin Hai couldn't help but feel upset, OK, it seems that he is almost late, so what else can he buy?
"Auntie, I'll have a party out." Lin Hai picked up the clothes that were hanging, and turned around and ran away.
"Hey, Lin, your..." Before Aunt Susan finished her words, Lin Hai was no longer visible. "Your wallet was not taken," Aunt Susan said in annoyance. But Lin Hai could not hear it.
At this time, Lin Hai had already sat in the taxi to the place where the party was.
But what surprised Lin Hai was that the taxi driver was actually a Chinese. Seeing that he was riding the bus, he seemed to be a Chinese. The driver asked in Mandarin in a low voice, "Chinese?"
"Well, yes, master, too?" Lin Hai replied, but before the driver could answer, he knew "Your Mandarin is so standard, it must be."
"Hey, the young man is nice and has vision!" When Lin Hai said he was his own, the driver immediately let go. He met an old friend in a foreign land... It was wrong, he met a fellow villager in a foreign land.
"My name is Li Wei, just call me Lao Li." Lao Li was very happy.
"Hello, Lao Li! My name is Lin Hai." Lin Hai replied politely.
"Ha, the young man came here to study abroad. He is so young and promising, just like the boy in my family." Old Li looked proud when he mentioned his son.
"Your son must be great!" Lin Hai replied. But it seems wrong to think about it. This answer is a bit like he is his son. But looking at Lao Li who is concentrating on driving, Lin Hai knew that he was thinking too much, but is this the father? Lin Hai suddenly felt a little sad. Lao Li's son, you must be very happy!
After entering the role, Lao Li began to play his specialties. As a taxi driver, he would not say anything else, Lao Li's verbal words made him most proud, from all over the world, from foreign countries to domestic, from celebrities to history, from men to women, Lao Li talked about it very much. Lin Hai was not good, he knew very little, and often he just listened to Lao Li talking, occasionally saying "Yeah, oh, so awesome". Lao Li seemed to have not spoken for eight hundred years, and didn't care, so he continued his topic.
The two of them chatted a lot along the way.
"Young man, it's here," Old Li stopped the car and said with a smile.
"Master, how much is it?" Lin Hai asked while looking for money.
"There are 50 US dollars in total, but you are a fellow villager, so you will be charged 30 US dollars," said Lao Li.
"What's wrong?" Old Li asked when he saw Lin Hai not moving for a long time.
"Master, I...I said I forgot to bring my wallet when I went out. Do you believe me?" Lin Hai was very embarrassed.
"Hey, what do I think is it? Who is there any accident when you are out? Young man, Lao Li, I won't accept you any money." Lao Li comforted Lin Hai instead.
"Master, how about this? Why don't I make a call?" Lin Hai looked at his phone.
"No, young man, really no. In recent years, it's rare to meet such a fellow villager who can chat with him. And seeing that you look like that boy, I will treat it as a good deed today," Old Li said honestly.
"How can that be done?" Lin Hai was not a person who took advantage of others casually, and he could see that Lao Li was not a wealthy person, and the family still had a heavy burden.
"Young man, needless to say, I'll leave." Old Li was about to drive away.
"Master, wait, let's do this, do you have a pen?" Lin Hai stopped Lao Li and asked.
Faced with this stubborn boy, Lao Li surrendered and admitted defeat, and had to answer "yes"
"I have a pen, but there is no paper, what should I do?" Lin Hai said to himself.
Seeing Lin Hai and Old Li in a dilemma, I wanted to say that there is really no need to be so entangled.
Before he could say "hiss", Old Li saw Lin Hai tearing off a corner of his shirt. Old Li pursed his lips. This kid really has a good arm strength.
"Master, this is an IOU. By the way, please remember my mobile phone number." Lin Hai breathed a sigh of relief like a child who had finally completed his homework.
Lao Li accepted the IOU written by Lin Hai, and exchanged numbers with Lin Hai and said, "Young man, you can rest assured now."
"Yeah" Lin Hai smiled happily.
"Oh, oh, I'm going to be late." Lin Hai ran away in a hurry.
"Master, goodbye!" Lin Hai's voice came from afar.
"I'm really a child with temperament." Old Li put the "IOU" aside and drove away with a smile. But what Old Li didn't know was that his kindness this time would bring him earth-shaking changes in the future, and Lin Hai, who ran away, didn't know that the "IOU" he insisted on leaving would bring a beautiful surprise to the next thing.
