The climate in Los Angeles and the UK is completely different. Although the sea breezes in the British Isles and the coolness is blowing, the California Sunshine Coast is still warm and charming. Although it is also in the cold winter of the northern hemisphere, when the British young men and women wear heavy windbreakers and frequently hold umbrellas, young men and women in Los Angeles still only need to add thick clothes in the evening. Some people who are resistant to freezing can even be like spring all year round and have short sleeves always accompany them.

Moving your home to the top of a skyscraper naturally has pros and cons.

On the 115th floor of Alice Building, the recruitment of clerks at Umbrella Asset Investment Company has come to an end. Sophie can work as long as she goes downstairs. Even if the house gets bigger, this former full-time housewife can also let the real cleaner go upstairs to clean and save almost all the trouble.

Although the two children, Oscar and Hannah like the comfortable life brought by the big house, especially the convenience of shopping and eating in one elevator, it is also worth complaining, that is, the general environment has changed after all. For example, morning jogging is feasible in ordinary residential communities every day, and the scene that can be seen every day can certainly not appear in the city center. Los Angeles is different from New York after all, the latter even has high-rise luxury apartments in the South Island of Manhattan, but here, where the car is the main one, is just a CBD near CBD.

James even complained about this. After all, if you really want to be greedy for a big house, your family would have changed to a larger and more gorgeously decorated high-end residential complex with a larger area and a more gorgeous decoration. It would have to be on the roof of the office building now. He did not resign from UCL because of the development of his daughter's career, but for this reason, as a people's teacher, living in such a gorgeous high-end apartment, always gives him a very strange feeling.

So, when Alice returned home again, he immediately came up.

"Awkward? Well, even a top surgeon with an annual salary of 2 million yuan will not be able to rent a three-story office building as an apartment. Dad, although you are a professor-level university history teacher, few colleagues will live in such an apartment. If I want me... to be awkward."

A tea drinking area with floor-to-ceiling windows has beautiful scenery and the interior decoration is even more exquisite. It is definitely not a perfect imitation of the luxurious decoration of Versailles, the marble floor with a certificate, the large screen glass with light, and the modern minimalist decoration style, which has an extremely strong humanistic and artistic atmosphere. The two single sofas and tea drinking tables are also exquisite works by Japanese design masters.

"Oscar, that boy, got used to it immediately." James sat comfortably on the chair, siping the tea. "Actually, the interior and area of ​​the room are easy to talk about. The key is that I am really not used to living in the city center. Look."

James waved his hand outside the window. It was already late, the sun set, and the neon lights had not yet appeared, but the traffic during peak hours had already begun. Although it was located in the sky at a very high level, as long as the ants on the ground were highly dense, you could still see it clearly.

"Young people like the fun, so you three girls and boys get used to it all at once, and Sophie is fine. I'm not saying I'm old, but don't forget, Vivi, your dad, I'm not an old businessman who has worked hard all his life in the mall, but just a history lover and a literati. Living in this bustling place... it's really unhappy."

James said softly, he had not even told others about this tonight. When the thought was just born, there was no need to disturb others. When time accumulated to a certain extent, it was indeed necessary to choose the best person first.

Alice turned the Montblanc pen, twisted her mouth, twisted her nose, frowned, and looked at her dad with all kinds of strange expressions.

"So? Mom is now able to go to work by going downstairs, and so is me. Although the house on Winton Street is not sold, Dad, you don't plan to separate from us, right?"

James chuckled gently and looked into the house habitually. Fortunately, there was only a small family living in the huge house. Sophie and her two children could not meet easily after they got apart. They had to rely on walkers to find people. Of course, there was no need to worry about being eavesdropped on the conversation.

"Separation? You girl can still think of it." He stood up and stretched his body and said, "I just thought that you are almost eighteen years old now, and Oscar and Hannah are getting closer and closer to taking the college entrance examination. You don't need it anymore, but when they two go there to study, there will be only three of us left in such a big house. Do you have any new plans?"

New plan?

When she moved her butt here, Alice felt something was wrong. She had just arrived home, and the plane arrived at Los Angeles Airport at 1:00 pm. Then, after just three hours of rest, her father was dragged here by her father. Just now, she thought he was sick of the world, but why did she feel...

Sure enough, James grinned at her: "Graduated from high school, Alice, even if you have been studying on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, Eaton is a gathering place for boys. Even if you graduated a year early, you stayed long enough, why didn't you bring a boyfriend back to your family!?"

Wow...

Alice's expression was instantly even worse than bitter melon...

"Boy friend!?"

However, the first sentence afterwards was not what she said. With a burst of hurried footsteps, Sophie rushed over from the inside of the house in slippers.

"I just heard the word boyfriend? Alice? Are you looking for a boyfriend!?"

It's actually a rhythm of three trials!?

As soon as she saw her mother's figure, Alice couldn't help but touch her forehead. Well, it was indeed her fault. She had never explained her orientation to her family over the years. Xixi's existence did not arouse much suspicion at all, so now...

"Dad, don't...Mom, don't just see the wind and rain."

Seeing Sophie approaching her side, Alice slid downwards, Ge You collapsed on the chair, and rolled her eyes with a humming voice: "Return to your boyfriend? You guys don't know that I have to travel a long distance every weekend to have a hairy boyfriend!"

However, Sophie smiled and walked behind James with a light step, put his hands on the back of the chair, and smiled and said, "Did you see it? Dear, Vivi is shy."

Sophie knew at a glance that she had just come up from the office downstairs. Before Versace could change her business suit, she hurriedly ran to such a corner to eavesdrop on her father and daughter's heart-to-heart talk. What else could she do if she had planned it before!?

She immediately stood up and said gritting her teeth, "I won't play with you anymore! I still have to work, so I won't be with you!"

Seeing that she was coming, her daughter was about to run away. Sophie hurriedly smiled and shouted: "Monica has just come back with you. Don't you let her get home from get off work early? It's almost dinner, let's go back and get busy, baby!"

James wanted to stand up, but Sophie's arms wrapped around his neck again, so he could only continue to sit on the chair and waved: "Yes, your mother also said in the morning that Hannah and Oscar would go to the supermarket to purchase now. Let's support ourselves tonight and have a big meal!"

As soon as he heard something delicious, Alice stopped running deep into the house, turned her body to face her parents.

"Then you have to agree, when will I find a... Well, you don't need to urge me to find a partner anymore. When will I take someone home, and when will I tell you about those things? I understand?"

Alice made a plan instantly. After all, she is only over 17 years old. Even if she doesn't mention singleism, she will not eat anything when she talks about marriage in ten years. So, whether it is the so-called so-called taking a partner home or secretly revealing her orientation to her family, this glorious and great arduous task can of course be delayed for one minute to sixty seconds...

"I understand, fully understand." The first person to express his opinion was James. He looked relaxed: "Actually, my dad is not afraid of you to make a joke. When he thinks of his baby daughter being beaten by a pig, even if that young man is excellent, I will arrange for him a twelve trial of Hercules!"

Well, yes, although the truth is the same, only Chinese parents can say this expression. Sophie had talked to her children about related topics long ago, saying that when James caught her, he said that his father-in-law looked at him as a pig who was husky.

"Well, it should, it should." Alice pursed her lips and leaned lazily on Sophie: "If there is that ungrateful young man who actually wants to chase me, the world's number one beautiful girl, it's more than twelve trials. Let him and thousands of mercenaries in the entire Black Water practice one by one!"

I won’t be able to kill him!

James burst into laughter, but I am afraid no one will support him. Since the mother and daughter got together, of course they were talking to themselves. The two of them put their arms around each other, and then they left the head of the family here and walked towards other parts of the house.

The two of them walked onto the private elevator and headed straight to the first floor.

Then, let’s talk about some serious matters.

"Are you sure you really don't need to call the police?" Sophie said: "The police's investigation ability should be more professional, right? Moreover, since you all suspect that the woman is from the Soviet Union, maybe Cia and MI6 are also likely to intervene?"

Alice shook her head: "Don't forget, mom, the mercenaries sent by Uncle Livier are also professional. Since they have not found anything from Drakken at all, they will definitely not be able to find anything with the old ideas. It's the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Warsaw Pact, and NATO. Then, recently, Czechoslovakia is still in the reform storm. What are you sure that you can get by letting the US official intervene?"
