[American Entertainment] Dance out of my youth

Grace ordered two whiskeys and kept one by Tom's hand.

He turned to look at her with a smile.

In the new round of cards, Tom got the jack of spades and 5 of hearts.The first round of public cards are 7 of Diamonds, 8 of Diamonds, King of Clubs.

Not very reliable.You can make a straight, but it is not safe.

In the first round of betting and calling, the players were in a stable mood.

Another community card is dealt, the Jack of Hearts.

There is no hope for a straight, but there is still hope for a pair.

The second round of betting calls and raises to 2000.

$2000 may not sound like much, but if a player has played for hours without winning, at least they can lose tens of thousands.

The dealer sends the river card, 5 of clubs.

Two pairs!Tom was secretly pleased.

A new round of betting and raising, Tom called the bet, and after a little calculation, 5000 yuan of chips was placed in this round, which is really a lot. There are at least 5 yuan of chips on the table, which is really exciting to think about. of!

But Tom didn't win this game.

After he lost all the chips in front of him, he decided not to play.

He stood up, "Do you want to play?"

"Oh! You've lost everything!" She grinned.

"I'm not very good at playing. Can you play?" After entering the casino, Grace switched back to her British accent, and he followed suit.

"I can't play either." She sat down.

"I'll ask someone to get you chips."

"I've changed it."

The waiter came quickly and set down the chip box in front of her.

The chips are placed neatly, divided into 50, 100, and 500 denominations, and there are not many chips for $1.Grace took the chips out of the box and placed them stack by stack in front of her.

Harrison came over, "Didn't you play?"

"Just played and lost more than 1."

Harrison laughed immediately, "Idiot!"

Grace played very cautiously, and often folded her cards with only her hole cards. She didn't play for a long time. She played a total of 10 rounds, lost more than 4000, and won more than 3 in the last round.

"Would you like to play?" she asked Harrison.

"I'm whatever."

She tossed a $50 chip to the dealer and lost two stacks to Harrison, "Here you are. I have to go to the bathroom."

She handed the other chips to Tom, "Do you want to play anything else?"

"There's a roulette over there, I'll go play." He looked at her, "Do you want me to go to the bathroom with you?"

Grace pursed her lips and smiled, "You're such an idiot."

He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure out what was going on.

After a while, he thought to himself, "Oh! Are you worried that if you win, you will run away, and someone will trouble you??"

"No. The casino doesn't care about such a small amount of money." She calculated in her head, "I only won more than 1 yuan. Subtract the 5000 you gave Harrison just now, and you won a small win of more than 5000."

"Isn't it more than 3?"

"Count the more than 1 you lost."

"Oh!" He was stunned.

"I won the money, and I'll treat you to supper tonight."

"Okay."

It's great to eat and drink with the winnings.

A group of people said that going to the casino costs money, but they didn't expect to make money, and Grace is too good!

Grace said triumphantly, I am super powerful!

She hadn't spent 2000 yuan on clothes in the afternoon, but she won more than that in a blink of an eye, and she has a strong ability to make money.Tom suddenly remembered that he had heard people say a long time ago that smart people and beautiful people can both make money. If a person is beautiful and smart, it is not so easy to fail.

Grace seems to be that kind of person.

Even if she is not a programmer, she will be successful in other occupations.When she was faced with a choice, whether to be a trampoline athlete or a math genius, he also knew, thinking that if she chose to become an athlete, she would definitely become the best trampoline athlete in the UK now.

Then I remembered that when she bought clothes in the afternoon, she actually only lived in New York for less than a week, so she didn't need to buy too many clothes, but she bought a lot from the inside out, and even bought a large LV suitcase.

After returning to the hotel in the middle of the night, Grace went to wash up first.When she came out of the bathroom, Tom had packed up all the clothes she bought in the afternoon and hung them in the closet.

What a sensible and lovely boyfriend.

Since she hadn't brought any clothes, she had bought nightgowns, of course, and Tom insisted on her buying nightgowns, so she did what she could and bought two nightgowns.

Nightdresses are basically suspender-style, made of mulberry silk, so soft that they look like they're not wearing any clothes.She changed into a blue nightdress and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Your hair isn't dry yet." He hurriedly went to the bathroom to get out a towel.

"I forgot to buy hair care oil in the afternoon, and I didn't buy a comb."

"Use my comb." He rubbed her head for a while, causing her to scream.

"Damn it! My hair is growing now. If you rub it so messily, it won't be easy to comb it later."

"I'll comb it for you. I promise I can comb it very well and it won't hurt you." He first dried her hair with a hair dryer until it was half dry, then found a comb, and began to comb her hair.

While the two were chatting, Grace said that she hadn't opened all the presents last night, so he laughed and said that she had brought them all, and she could continue to open them later.

She is very well-behaved when she is not angry or quarreling with him. She is cute as a girl, but still not like that kind of mature and charming "woman". Sometimes she handles things very maturely and calmly, but sometimes she is like a child.She still thought he was a child.snort!

Thinking about it, he smiled.

what is love?It's that you smile when you just think of her name in your heart.It's that simple.

"Grace," he said suddenly, "can you stay a few days longer?"

"Ok?"

"I want you to stay for a few more days and spend more time with me."

"It's been a long time since I was able to leave for a week, and I still have to catch up with the schedule when I go back. However, did I not say that I don't have to go to the company very much for the next two years, at least I don't have to go too long during the summer vacation."

"Nice? Is it okay?"

"Of course. I should graduate with a degree as soon as possible, and then devote myself to the company's R&D and operations. In fact, Amazon suggested that we find a professional manager so that I don't have to worry about the company's operations."

Tom thought for a while, it seems to be oh, many companies have professional managers, the boss is the boss, and the CEO is the CEO.

"You don't go to the company, can you?"

"Actually, I just need to look at the quarterly financial statements. If the company is not listed, I don't have to worry about being swept out."

He said seriously: "This is too complicated, I don't understand."

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand," she said with a smile: "The point is, I will be very busy for the next two years. I will try my best to graduate in the summer, and I don't want to delay my graduation for another half a year. You have to know that a Ph.D. Half of those who can graduate successfully in 3 or 4 years will not be able to graduate in the summer, and it will take at least half a year.”

"What's that for?"

"Graduation thesis."

Tom nodded half understanding.

"When it comes to Ph.D., most people are very smart, and my advantage is not so obvious, but it should be no problem to graduate smoothly."

He thought that he failed to attend her bachelor's and master's graduation ceremonies, so he hurriedly said, "You must invite me to attend your graduation ceremony this time."

"Okay." She nodded.

Then he thought of Ian, would Ian graduate with her too?However, he didn't want to ask her.Ask, just care, he doesn't care about a love rival!

He quietly mentioned to Nikki that Ian was pursuing Grace. Nikki said that he should be confident. He and Grace had known each other since they were young. How could this friendship be easily replaced by others? She wouldn't be impressed just because he was in class with someone every day; besides, if he wasn't confident enough, Grace would think he wasn't mature enough, and it would be bad if she still treated him like a child!

Well, what mom said makes sense!

He has also noticed these days that Grace is sometimes very mature, or at least seems very calm, but many times she is still very childish-she is only 22 years old, and she is still very young.

It's not that a man must be "mature", "responsibility" may be more important, you have to be a reliable person, no matter in any way.Also be tolerant, gentle, and not dry.

It's really not easy for men.

He combed as gently as possible.

Her hair was darker than his, a darker tan, whereas his was a sun-blond deep golden tan.She said it was because the dark pigment was dominant and that her children would have dark hair in the future.He was 9 years old when his little brother Paddy was born. He still remembers what it was like when he saw the little one in the hospital. His parents told him that it was his little brother, and he wanted to love and take care of him. I always feel that I am doing pretty well—although sometimes I like to tease my younger brothers, but generally speaking, my brothers get along pretty well——

Then, he will take good care of their children in the future.

He knew he would do well.Grace is an only daughter, she has no experience with siblings, she may not know how to take care of children, but it doesn't matter, there is him.

He pretended to be casual and said: "Now I comb your hair, and I will comb our daughter's hair in the future."

"You like girls?"

"I have three younger brothers and I'm fed up with boys."

Grace couldn't be happier, "You finally know that you are all very skinny."

He smiled a little embarrassedly, "We were all young then."

"They're all annoying boys."

"Then you still want to play with us?" He whispered.

"Oh, that's because you always come to me, have you forgotten?"

"Really?" he asked suspiciously.

"Harry and Sam want to play on my trampoline, and you keep playing until my house moves out."

"Well, Dominique installed a trampoline in the yard later, but they didn't play much then. Maybe someone else's toys are more fun. Okay, comb. Are you sleepy now?"

"Sleepy." She yawned lazily. "Let's go to Flushing tomorrow. Juliet said that there are Chinese restaurants in Flushing that secretly sell hairy crabs. Now it's almost time to eat hairy crabs."

"Hairy crab?" What is that!

"It's actually called 'Eriocheir sinensis'. There are fluff on the claws. It's delicious."

"Have you eaten?"

"I have eaten it. It is very sweet. But in the United States, the Chinese mitten crab is an invasive species, so it is forbidden to enter the country. They are all smuggled in secretly. I heard that the police in New York are very strict."

Tom was surprised: "Isn't that illegal?"

She laughed, "It's illegal, and it's super expensive. You can't eat Chinese mitten crabs in London, and of course some people smuggle them there."

This is an aspect he has never been in contact with. He is curious and novel, "Why would someone be willing to smuggle crabs? I thought smuggling should be something more valuable."

"It's a matter of supply and demand. If there is demand, some people will take the risk. It also shows how delicious the Chinese mitten crab is. Some people will pay tens of dollars or even higher prices just to eat one crab. In China, probably That's less than $5. The more I talk about it, the more I want to eat it." She pinched her cheeks.

"Is it really that delicious?"

"Well, you'll know it once you've eaten it. Chinese mitten crab is a river crab, and it's more delicious than sea crabs."

"If we can't eat it in New York, we will go to China next summer to eat it."

"Crabs are the best in autumn, and they are only available in October."

"I should have time, but you don't know if there is time."

"If I start my graduation thesis and graduation design in September next year, I will have time in October. It seems that we have said that we will go to China for a few years."

"Well, yeah, it's been a long time, it's just—" he sighed, "it's hard for us to get together."

"Yeah, you're getting busier—" suddenly sad.She was sullen, "Do you want me to be with you?"

"I thought so, but you have your career, I hope you can become a great person, more great and greater than I can imagine. Don't worry about my inferiority, I will think this way: so great you will love Me, it means that I am also amazing." He said calmly, "Of course I will be super proud in my heart: Look, my baby is so Awesome! I will be proud of you, nothing compares to it."

"Even Spider-Man can't compare?"

"Not even Spider-Man." He laughed. "Being Spider-Man is a big deal for me, but not for you."

She immediately said sweetly: "No, I also think it's amazing. Think about it, my baby is Spider-Man!" She nodded his nose affectionately, "Just this will make me happy for a long time .”

"How long is a long time?" He also tapped the tip of her nose, rubbed on her face, kissed her face, and kissed her lips.

"It's just... several years, ten years, decades." She suddenly sighed.

"What's the matter? Why are you sighing?" Tom asked puzzled.

"Life is too short, but too long. I can't tell. I don't think it's a problem for a few years; but more than ten years? Do you think we can always love each other like this?"

He was even more puzzled, "Why not? Look at Dominic and Nikki, David and Juliet. Our parents can do it, can't we?"

"That's hard to say!"

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking—I don't know either. In short, I am very happy now, and I don't want to think that we may break up in the future."

The author has something to say: *I wrote this paragraph because I saw a moving picture of Holland playing cards on Weibo. He is so handsome that he can watch it all day.When he played Billy Elliot, he was just an ordinary-looking British boy. He was cute, but he couldn't really say he was beautiful. Why did he suddenly look so good-looking in the past few years!How tall is this child!
