Chapter 354 Waiting
The plane started to land, Shi Lei made a good disguise with Jenny's help, he didn't want to reveal it yet, he had to wait for the right time to reappear.

"You mean you won't be coming home for a while?"

In the car that Schwartz had arranged to pick him up from the airport, Jenny asked Shi Lei.

"Yes, not for the time being, you and Alice go back first, I may go home soon, or I may have to stay outside for a few days, but it won't be too long!"

"Okay", Jenny nodded, although she didn't quite understand what Shi Lei was thinking, but she didn't ask, but it doesn't mean that Alice won't ask.

"Why? Why don't you go home?"

Alice tilted her head and looked at Shi Lei, her inquiring eyes seemed to be digging out the secrets Shi Lei had hidden.

Shi Lei opened his mouth, and was about to try to explain to Alice why he did this, when Jenny said to Shi Lei as if she suddenly remembered something: "Oh, honey, maybe you can bring Alice with you!"

Shi Lei looked at Jenny in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Alice was also full of inquiries.

Jenny smiled slightly, looking very happy: "Because I'm going to work soon, so I need you to accompany Alice during this time until she makes her own choice!"

"Work?"

Shi Lei was a little at a loss, Jenny has been with him in the country, where is the time to find a job?

However, this is not as violent as Alice's reaction. Alice, who was in a good mood just now because she returned to a familiar environment, immediately asked Jenny with a very puzzled expression: "Why? To be a freelance writer Isn’t he nice? Why go out to work?”

"But it's not what I like, I still like what I did before, so I contacted the 'W' magazine I used to work for the other day, luckily they didn't reject me!"

"All right!"

Shi Lei nodded noncommittally. Although he didn't support Jenny going out to work, he didn't object either. He respected Jenny's choice.

"We should respect Jenny's choice, shouldn't we?"

After finishing speaking, Shi Lei turned to look at Alice and said.

Alice turned her head to the side sullenly, her lips pursed slightly, like a child who was sulking.

"Okay, I think it's time for us to say goodbye!"

After about half an hour, the car stopped opposite the house where Shi Lei lived, outside the gate of Boston Common, Jenny said when she picked up the suitcase and was about to get off the car.

"Goodbye, Jenny!"

Shi Lei gently hugged Jenny, and Jenny also pecked Shi Lei lightly on the face.But Alice still didn't turn her head to the side, as if she didn't hear Jenny's words.

Shi Lei and Jenny were already accustomed to Alice's petty temper, knowing that it would soon disappear, so Jenny stepped out of the car without waiting for Alice to say goodbye to her.

The moment the car door was closed, Alice suddenly turned her head, and Jenny waved her hand, but was blocked by the thick window glass, she didn't see the tears in Alice's eyes at this moment!
The car started to start slowly, and Jenny also pulled the suitcase across the road and walked towards the opposite side. The tears in Alice's eyes couldn't help but began to fall wantonly.

Shi Lei, who was watching Jenny off, realized that Alice was crying when he heard Alice sobbing.

"What's the matter with you, Alice? We just left Jenny for a while and will be back soon!"

Tears turned Alice into the "porcelain doll" in Shi Lei's memory, which made Shi Lei's voice softer unconsciously, and his eyes began to flicker!But soon, Shi Lei expelled all the distracting thoughts in his heart!

Alice raised her head and looked at Shi Lei with mournful eyes: "Why, Shi? Why do people have to separate, isn't it good for us to be together forever?"

"If there is no separation, how can there be the joy of reunion?"

Shi Lei comforted Alice with a smile, took out a few tissues in his hand, and gently wiped the tears that were still falling down on Alice's face.

"She's Jenny's sister! She's my sister!"

"But I don't even want you to leave me!"

"We will not leave you, only you leave us, just like I left my parents, and they were always there!"

"That means as long as I don't leave, we'll be together forever, right?"

"Yes, we will always live together, as long as you have a reason!"

Finally appeasing Alice, the car sped along and drove into the hotel that had already been booked.

Here, Shi Lei met Schwartz's assistant, Irene, a shrewd and capable middle-aged woman. She brought all the information about team transactions that Shi Lei needed most now, as well as all the betting information on Shi Lei in the Olympics.

Schwartz has not returned from China yet, and the "enthusiasm" of domestic businessmen makes him really unable to spare time!

Seeing that Shi Lei and Alice came to the hotel alone, but did not see Jenny, Irene, who knew Shi Lei's situation very well, looked at Shi Lei with a meaningful look. She still had something to explain to Shi Lei, but she didn't want to After disturbing Shi Lei's "good thing", he quickly chose to leave.

In fact, it's no wonder that Irene misunderstood, how chaotic the private lives of American stars are, people in their profession can be said to know best!
After sending Irene away, Shi Lei comforted Alice who was still in a state of anxiety. After Alice fell asleep, Shi Lei opened the information brought by Irene.

Shi Lei first opened the betting information for the Olympics. He didn't care much about the multiplier, so he quickly jumped to the last page, which had a long string of Arabic numerals on it!
"Oh, $17 billion."

What a huge fortune this is, I believe there is no need to describe it further, but Shi Lei was not surprised at all, even he himself was surprised by it.In fact, the reason is very simple, because he already knew the result!Even the result was lower than he expected!
I knew everything a long time ago, the joy of success is actually a kind of "hurt", because the "surprise" in it is gone.

Without the "surprise", the joy didn't stay in Shi Lei's heart for long. He quickly put down this document and picked up the news summary of the Celtics team transaction. It is definitely a process.

This is a long process, so this document looks more like a diary, which records in detail the time, place, person, and content of the conversation about everything that happened.This allowed Shi Lei to have a more intuitive understanding of the whole process of the transaction, and was more fully prepared for how to deal with it.

In the next few days, Shi Lei waited quietly in the hotel, waiting for the opportunity to intervene!
