Chapter 243 Let my family pick me up

A word "answer" was just written crookedly on a test paper.

Komnenos took the phone, glanced at the caller, and put it back to his ear.

"Are you crazy?"

"Sir, I'm not crazy."

“…”

The subordinate quickly gave a brief account of the whole process.

"Then let me see what my second goddaughter looks like." Komnenos hung up the phone and lowered his head to scan the paper in front of him.

Then wouldn't it be a good idea not to do it?

Komnenos stood up and said, "Rearrange the itinerary and prepare the plane."

"You're going to a meeting?"

"No, I'm going to Atlanta, right now."

A group of people hurriedly followed.

But Komnenos had already walked to the door. After thinking for a while, he turned back to pick up his schoolbag, stuffed the test paper in it, and carried it away.

After all, I'm angry.

Don't want to make the little girl even angrier.

When Komnenos arrived in Atlanta, the duckling had already boarded the cruise ship with Edith.

"There's something more interesting here."

Edith blocked her out of the door. "But before you enter, you have to prove to us first, is your brother really the Chief Inspector?"

Qin Yue was worried.

How does she prove it?

She has no way to prove it!

The duckling tilted its body, its eyes passed Edith and fell on the ghost Wen Xin.

The duckling looked confused: "So you need to do background checks when you invite people to join the club?"

Edith pursed her lips and looked back at Gui Wenxin, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"People from the Gui family never call themselves Gui. Instead, they call themselves Wei," said Xiaoya.

Gui Wenxin was not panicked at all and said, "Since we have joined the sisterhood, of course we have to tell you our real name."

Edith nodded and looked at the duck again: "Yes, she is very honest. What about you? Are you honest enough?"

The duckling showed an even more confused expression, stared at Gui Wenxin and asked: "Are you really Chinese?"

Edith smiled. "What do you mean? Isn't her face convincing enough? A typical Chinese face."

"Then why doesn't she understand the rules of China? 'Wen' is used by elders. Wei Wenjuan, Wei Wenyi, Wei Wenqing... they are all elders. How can the younger generation continue to use 'Wen' as an intervening character?" These words are a little complicated to express in English.

It was so complicated that Edith tilted her head slightly, hmm...it was hard to understand.

So the duck immediately gave her an analogy: "It's like a German who would no longer be named Hitler."

“That’s the cultural mistake she made.”

Edith was silent for a moment after hearing this, then turned to ask Gui Wenxin: "What do you want to say?"

Gui Wenxin looked innocent: "I don't know why my family gave me this name? Maybe it's to fill the gap left by my mother's absence?"

"Okay, no need to say any more." Edith was already a little unhappy.

She asked the duckling, "Are you stalling for time?"

Qin Yue also felt that Xiaoya seemed to be stalling for time, but this method was useless.

what to do?

At this moment, Xiaoya's cell phone rang. She said calmly, "Wait, I'll answer the call first."

Edith: “…”

Xiaoya answered the phone right away and said, "Hello."

Komnenos' voice came from the other end: "Where are you? I'm in Atlanta."

The duck turned on the speaker, put the phone close to the railing of the boat, and asked, "Do you hear it? The sound of the waves."

"I'm on the boat."

Edith's mouth twitched: "Your family?"

The management is indeed strict.

But not only did you answer the call, you also turned on the speaker and told the other party where you were. Isn't that a bit outrageous?

"I'm coming over now. What's the name of the ship? Which port?" the other end asked.

The duck said, "No hurry."

She took the phone away from her ear and looked at Gui Wenxin again: "I have another question, I'm very curious."

Edith frowned, "Hey! Lee!"

Gui Wenxin waved her hand, looking calm: "It's okay, do you have anything else to ask me?"

The duck asked: "How did you and Komnenos know each other?"

Gui Wenxin smiled helplessly: "Well, everyone seems to be very interested in this."

Komnenos on the other end of the phone fell silent instantly, and began to listen to her story with a serious face.

"It was an accident..."

"At that time, he didn't know who I was. We were just on an island..."

Hearing this, the duckling was a little surprised.

These actually match.

"Most people knew the news at that time, right? Komnenos went to the island to hunt down his enemies, but was accidentally injured. It just so happened that I accidentally saved him."

Little Duck: “…”

That's not right.

Things start to go wrong from here.

The node of the small island should have been inferred by Gui Wenxin based on the news at the time and Komnenos' subsequent behavior.

It is indeed very smart to be able to guess this far.

"I didn't expect that I picked up a lunatic. I asked doctors to treat him and treated him very well. Maybe it was because he had a bad reputation that no one had ever been so close to him and so gentle in front of him? Slowly, we became very close."

"Later he told me his true identity. Knowing that I had no parents, he wanted me to recognize him as my godfather." Gui Wenxin continued.

The duckling said, “No.”

Gui Wenxin was stunned: "What?"

In the story compiled by Gui Wenxin, Komnenos' character was completely ignored.

There is a reason why no one has been close to Komnenos for so many years.

How can you make up a story using ordinary people’s thinking?

The duckling continued, "If you treat Komnenos well right from the start, he will just think you have ulterior motives."

Komnenos gnashed his teeth on the other end of the phone.

Yes, it requires lying without any emotion.

Gui Wenxin was stunned.

But then he asked, “Do you know my godfather better than I do?”

Komnenos could not bear to hear it any longer.

She doesn’t understand, do you?

His brows were furrowed so tightly that they looked like they could pinch a fly to death, making his face, which was not very friendly to begin with, look even more terrifying.

The duck put the phone back to his ear.

Only then did Edith and the others realize that she had not hung up the phone.

"Hello."

"Address." Komnenos said coldly.

The duckling reported it obediently.

"What are you doing?" Edith asked.

"When I'm done playing, my family will pick me up."

"Are you sure you want your family to see you getting off this boat? Instead of walking out of the school?"

"Well, it doesn't matter. My family has seen the world."

Edith's eyes moved: "Oh? Is that your brother, the Chief Inspector?"

The duck shook his head: "No, it's another one."

As she spoke, she hung up the phone and sent a text message to her second uncle.

She remembered that her family had a shipping company and built very large cruise ships.

Well, if we send two more ships over, we should be able to sandwich this one in the middle, right?

This is much safer.

"To be honest, I don't know how powerful you are, and whether you are qualified enough for my brother to talk to you." The duck spoke slowly, sounding even more arrogant.

She said, "Now, let someone from the Brotherhood come and confirm my identity to you."

"You know anyone in the fraternity?" Edith was stunned.

The duck nodded, dialed another number, and turned on the speaker again.

Qin Yue is only in middle school.

Green and his friends are from a college, and a fraternity at a top university. Their status should be much higher than Edith and her friends.

“Beep…beep…”

The phone was connected at this time.

Green's pretentious voice came out, with an indescribable arrogance that the duckling could never learn.

"Hey, listen, I don't care who you are. Now, let me tell you, my name is Green Jones, and I'll give you the key SDGS287G, which you can use to find me in the member database."

"I want to tell you that the status of this lady in front of you is definitely not what you can imagine. Be smart. Maybe next time we hold an event, I will consider proposing to upgrade your branch to a higher level."

Edith's lips pursed tighter, almost white, and she smiled and said, "Okay."

Qin Yue was stunned.

Isn't this just stalling for time? There really is a way!

But where did she meet the fraternity guys???

Green on the other end slowly put down his phone and turned to look at the man behind him who had a casual expression but sharp eyes: "Can you take your hand away from my neck now, Sheng?"

The words cannot be put here:

I will update once tonight, take a break, and update 3 chapters tomorrow. There is not much left to update.

I was busy writing the fourth update last night. Now I have time to summarize the situation in the comment section over the past two days. It is common to not accept CP. It is normal. I want to write about apples, but you like pears. It is your right and freedom to abandon the article. You can even kick it a few times before leaving.

But it's wrong to talk nonsense, right? You said you came here for no CP, but got stabbed in the back. Huh? Come on, click on the details page of this book, my label - "modern romance". It has not been changed from beginning to end. If you like no CP, you can select the no CP label from the category to filter out the articles you like, instead of coming here to blame me for not writing according to your wishes, or even attacking other readers.

Some people also complained that it was disgusting that the promised family relationship turned into love. I chose to focus on the family relationship in the beginning because the heroine was young. I think there should only be family love. If there is anything else, wouldn’t it be pedophilia? Now I am going to end it, so I started to prepare for the love story of the heroine after she becomes an adult. How do you think the promised family relationship has changed? Who promised whom? Of course, it is still your right if you don’t accept it. You can give a bad review. I won’t want to change you.

But if it extends to personal attacks, I will curse back. I will curse back at anyone who curses me.

By the way, there are also people who accuse me of being misogynistic and a spoiled wife. Although I don’t know how this is thought-provoking, just be happy. You can scold me ten thousand times, but it won’t change the fact that I am a person who regularly supports girls in mountainous areas. Good night, dear.
