038 Dancing Together (Two More)

Several people were chatting, and the enthusiastic supervisor led the waiter to push the dining cart all the way over, and began to serve them the first dish: foie gras cold pie.

Fat Will welcomed this dish very much. It could be seen that he had a preference for greasy food, and this dish was just right for him. The sweet and rotten figs have a fruity sweetness, the dried fruit flavor of walnuts and the natural sugary aroma of honey make the cold pie even more sweet, and what’s rare is that the portion of this dish is still considerable, Will also Without picking up the knife, his chubby face had already been buried in the past, and he took a few deep breaths before raising his head.

"Nice," Will gave the supervisor a thumbs up, and then complained to George.

"When we went to California to communicate, the foie gras at Thomas Keller Restaurant attracted me the most. At that time, we often sneaked out from the training base to eat this dish, but since the foie gras was banned in California, we never saw each other again. It’s time for a proper French meal, and today I must order another foie gras to try.”

"Yes, I still remember that the restaurant used to be a stone-built century-old French laundry. The flavor is very unique, but can you still eat such greasy food now? Has your doctor warned you about the dangers of high blood fat? You couldn’t even run in the woods last time?” George was dividing the foie gras on the plate, although the livers of these geese had undergone treatments such as devascularization, seasoning and pickling, they were carved into circular shapes by molds, and the chef cut them Finely roasted into a rice-like color, it is very appetizing, but in his opinion, it is too fatty to eat often.

"Oh, don't mention it." Will's wife gave her husband an angry look. "Not only does the doctor talk about it every time he sees him, even his favorite TV show Eren for a week also mentioned this topic a few days ago. Everyone said that obesity will cause disease, but he didn't listen to anything. Guess what? What did you do in the end? He just quit the TV show!"

Fatty's actions are hilarious, but everyone still cares about his health.

"In fact, you can eat less meat, eat more vegetables, don't eat too much at night, and exercise properly, and you will lose weight soon." Gwen's mother also advised this friend.

But Will's head was shaking like a rattle, and he didn't even want to think about the feasibility of dieting.

"Unless scientists invent quick-acting diet pills, I'd rather eat and die." Will, who is always easy-going and funny, is only very persistent in diet and refuses to bow his head no matter what, but he is not really willing to be so fat Going down, so I looked at Ross and asked him a question.

"Ross, have you considered diet pills? This market is also very promising."

"Definitely," Ross nodded with a smile. "We will also pay attention to this aspect in the future."

"That's great," Will slapped his hands and shouted overjoyed. "Don't forget to inform me when the time comes, I would rather buy your medicine at a high price."

Speaking of buying, George remembered one thing.

"Ross, the body armor Gwen gave me was used last time. How much should we pay for it? It is the property of the laboratory, and I cannot take it away at will."

George didn't mean to be hypocritical when he said that. Receiving a gift is a very sensitive word. The Ethics Office is a government agency that specializes in supervising the professional ethics of federal government officials. According to its regulations, any public official is strictly prohibited from soliciting or accepting things for himself or his family with the purpose of influencing official actions. gifts, including receiving and soliciting gifts from subordinates. In addition to the regulations of this agency, states usually also have their own charters.

Taking New York as an example, public officials cannot receive more than US$50 in gifts per year, and even dining out has very strict rules. For example, when you go to a subordinate department for inspection, you can only accept biscuits, drinks, etc. entertained below, but you need to go to a restaurant to pay for your dinner.

Strictly speaking, George is not yet a federal civil servant. He is a high-level police officer employed by the city government. Although he was promoted through the civil service examination, the New York City Police Department is not a federal agency, so it is not included in the scope of civil servants. However, due to his character, he has always demanded himself seriously, from the beginning of the grassroots policeman until now he has become the director, and has never changed, so Ross did not try to persuade him.

It's okay to do business, which is convenient for both parties.

Since everyone could understand each other, the lunch atmosphere on this day was quite pleasant. After paying the bill, Ross and Gwen left and went for a walk outside together.

"You can rest assured that they will be together?" Will's wife was a little puzzled. Her husband liked to read street newspapers, so she also knew a little about Ross's personal situation. She knew that he had a girlfriend, and that girl was just like them. Wen's high school classmate.

"Let them go with the flow, after all, they are young people." Gwen's mother was very open, and patted the back of her best friend affectionately, persuading her to relax.

From the point of view of George and his wife, the problem is really not big. Ross, Gwen and Mary Jane are all under 20 years old. In terms of age alone, Ross is even one year younger than his own daughter, so even after a few years and three Some of them withdrew, and they were not too old at that time.

After all, this is the United States, where the divorce rate is as high as 50%, and more than half of the families cannot make it to the end. It is unrealistic to stipulate what young people can and cannot do. It is better to let them go and let them judge who is right. the most suitable person.

At this point, Gwen's parents have faith in their daughter. Based on the experience of a pair of people who have experienced it, life is accumulated over time. Mary Jane aspires to be an actor, while Ross is a scientist at heart, and Gwen can be his best assistant. After a few years or even more than ten years, the lives of the three will be different. The divergence in trajectories will become bigger and bigger. When they look back on this period of time, they will find that the weight of each other's memories is very different. Gwen's influence on Ross will definitely exceed other people, and the long-lasting relationship is not Isn't it made up of life fragments one by one?

They believe that Ross will make the right choice, and that a sensible daughter should have the courage to face the challenge with her own charm if she wants to gain her own happiness.

In fact, Gwen herself thought so.

No one knew what significance the park incident had in her life. Before that day, Ross was a very good boy whom he was familiar with. He was more of a friend than a lover, but the misunderstanding that day changed her mind. Gwen began to realize the significance of Ross to her. At some point, this high school classmate Gwen has already walked into her heart and occupied an extremely important position. As long as she thinks about leaving him, Gwen's heart will become incomplete. She doesn't want to bear the feeling of emptiness for a second time. No matter how far Jane's friendship develops, Gwen will not give up Ross to her.

If one day, Ross chooses one of them to be his life partner, then the other person should also offer his blessings sincerely. When they reunite in the future, the two parties can also sit down and have a drink and continue to maintain a deep friendship.

Gwen and Mary Jane had privately agreed on this point, only tacitly, but they never dreamed that this guy Ross had already come up with crooked ideas to catch them all.

Walking to a square, soft music played, and many young people hugged and danced to the melody. Ross also hugged Gwen, and the two danced a waltz together.

"What are you looking at?" When her parents were not around, Gwen became more courageous again. Seeing the boy she liked admiring her face very close, she asked with wide eyes.

What is Ross looking at? Definitely looking at her lively and lovely face.

Beautiful, big eyes, a little bit of joy, a little innocent, a little mature, and a little naive at the same time... If every era needs the image of a little girl of that era, then Gwen is the representative of this kind of little girl. She is a girl who is both ordinary and extraordinary, with bright spots and flaws, a bit beautiful but not perfect, carrying the dreams and happiness of girls in this era.

His eyes were full of admiration, and he actually looked embarrassed at this girl, Gwen. Her eyes wandered around Ross's face a few times, and then she didn't know where her attention slipped. Staring at Ross's chin without speaking, he moved his feet mechanically, but luckily he didn't step on the other's foot.

After a few slow turns on the dance floor, Ross took the initiative to stir up the topic.

"The last time we got close together like this was in high school, right?"

"Yes, it's our prom." Gwen was still a little dazed.

"Did you fall in love with me then, so you stayed by my side?" Ross blinked.

"Bah, you're not ashamed to say such things!" Gwen finally recovered and gave him a hard look. "Nothing happened. I just studied with Dr. Connors. Do you want to hear me say that if I don't see you, I will be so entangled that I can't sleep at night?"

"Why not?" Ross raised his eyebrows, and Gwen found that his eyebrows were long and elegant. Others would look frivolous if they did it, but Ross had an indescribable taste in doing it.

It's free and easy, and natural, in short, it looks good.

Gwen took a few more glances before turning her gaze away.

"Well, I admit that you are partly right. But I don't know whether I should feel good about it or worry about it."

At this moment, she thought of Mary Jane, Ross was very important to her, but in turn, Gwen also knew what he meant to Mary Jane.

I have loving parents and two lovely brothers, but Mary Jane really only has Ross.

She didn't know how to face it, and Ross didn't say anything, just led her to dance slowly to the music.

After the end of the song, the young people on the dance floor did not disperse, and the rhythm gradually became faster, from a slow waltz to a fast-paced Viennese waltz. Ross and Gwen followed the rhythm of the music. Walking in the crowd, each other can clearly feel each other's heartbeat and body heat.

Ross gently buried his face in Gwen's hair, breathing in the natural fragrance emanating from the girl, he could feel the girl's warm and indifferent breath, and he could even feel the natural ups and downs of pulses under his fingertips , the girl unconsciously relaxed, dancing with his footsteps.

The melodious music rippling in the square, Ross and Gwen strolled along with the beat, their bodies hugged each other gently, and at the same time they were always in a coordinated state of coordination, lifting, tilting, and swinging were all very natural, and the dance steps were undulating , with an elegant and gorgeous posture, both lovers and an old couple who know each other well.

When the last note faded leisurely, the two of them finally stopped. Gwen, who was slightly tired, was a little short of breath, and thin sweat appeared on her forehead. She took out a handkerchief, and Ross took it naturally and wiped it clean for her.

"Well...you dance really well."

"We have a tacit understanding."

Gwen smiled slightly, then took the boy's arm in a kiss, and the two walked out of the dance floor.
