Laurent had to maintain his dignity as a husband and father in front of his wife and daughter.
He would never admit it. Fali could vaguely tell that her father and Chen Zhao didn't get along.
"Dad, Chen and I prepared dinner. Let's eat. Chen's really good at cooking."
"Are you sure it's enough for all of us? Kane, Karim, and Howard didn't eat dinner either. "
"It's definitely enough. Chen's always had a big appetite."
When Kane, Karim, and Howard were called in to move the steamer out of the kitchen, even Faur found it hard to believe.
"Chen, do you eat so much every day?" Faur asked in surprise. "Also, aren't you afraid of getting fat with so much starch?"
Normally, athletes would eat starch other than meat and fish. Starch could increase fat mass.
Then, they could convert fat into muscle through large amounts of exercise. However, if a normal person ate too much starch without enough exercise, it would become a layer of fat.
Americans usually didn't eat rice, or rather, they didn't have the habit of eating rice.
However, Fali had been with Chen Zhao for a long time. When they were still friends, she'd already eaten rice every day.
As for growing meat, it was even more impossible for Fali.
As a beach lifeguard, even if she didn't eat rice, she still needed to eat starch from other sources.
"Fali, don't you feel crowded living with this kid and so many pets?" Laurent glanced at Chen Zhao. "How about you give me two pets? I'll just take those two big dogs."
"Dad, they're not dogs. They're wolves."
Cough, cough —
Laurent almost spat out the rice from his nose. "They're wolves?"
"Yes."
"It's too dangerous. Send them to the zoo immediately. I won't allow my daughter to live with wolves. Or you can break up with him right now."
"Dad, I hope you can give me enough freedom and not interfere with me and Chen." Fali's face darkened immediately. "I'm having fun with Chen. I won't break up with him for such a ridiculous reason."
Chen Zhao glanced at Laurent out of the corner of his eye and smiled victoriously.
As a bystander, Faur saw Chen Zhao and her father's opposing gazes.
She sighed. They couldn't coexist peacefully.
Laurent gritted his teeth and said with an ashen face, "He's not suitable for you. He's not worthy of you at all."
"Dad." Fali was angry too. She slammed the table and stood up. "Please be more respectful to Chen."
"Laurent, you're going too far," Winnip said.
She wasn't on Fali's side. She had spoken up to ease the conflict between Fali and Laurent.
If he allowed them to continue their conflict, it was very likely that they would turn hostile on the spot.
Chen Zhao actually had a headache too. If he had known that Laurent was Fali's father, he would have just taken a step back.
However, the grudge had already been formed, and it was useless to regret it now.
However, he didn't want Fali to fall out with her parents because of him.
The women in the TV series could tell their parents that even without their blessings, they would still be happy.
These were all words spoken out of anger. No child would be willing for their parents to be absent from their wedding.
The only thing he could do now was not to add fuel to the fire.
However, the atmosphere at the dining table was still somewhat heavy.
"Fali, your father and I are going back to the hotel."
"Mom, which hotel are you staying at? Chen and I will visit you tomorrow," Fali said.
"Hilton Hotel."
Fali froze. She turned to look at Chen Zhao and then at Laurent. "Did you guys meet each other last night?"
No one was willing to answer this question. After all, Laurent had been too embarrassed last night.
It was the first time in his life that he'd been scared to the point of peeing his pants. It was a great humiliation for him.
"Okay, we should go. You don't have to come to the hotel tomorrow either. Your father and I want to go out and play. It'll be inconvenient if you guys come."
"Okay."
Winnip looked at Faur. "Faur, where are you going? I'll take you."
…
Achoo —
"That * sshole is definitely telling Fali about my embarrassing past. I won't let him go!" Laurent yelled angrily.
"Alright, haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?" Winnip said indifferently.
"Kane, do you know any killers? Kill that * sshole for me."
"Mr. Laurent, I'm a proper bodyguard. I don't know any killers."
"Kane, don't listen to this old * sshole."
"Yes, Boss."
Kane, Karim, and Howard were Winnip's bodyguards, not Laurent's.
So, in principle, they would only listen to Winnip's orders.
"Winnip, why didn't you help me at the dinner table today?"
"Why should I help you? I don't think Chen is that bad. At least he's qualified."
"How is he qualified? In my eyes, he's nothing. "
"At least he can make money and protect Fali. He's nice to her too."
"How come I don't see him being nice to Fali? Where is he? "
"Didn't you see the two cars parked outside? Fali's is an Aston Martin and he's a Ford."
"Maybe Fali bought it herself. Maybe she even bought the Ford for him."
Winnip rolled her eyes. "Fali asked me for money last time, but the next day, she called and told me that she didn't need it anymore."
"That guy's definitely after your money. That * sshole thinks that Fali might inherit your wealth and enjoy it."
Faur had been sitting in the front. She did not even bother to talk to her father.
She felt that the older her father got, the more childish he became.
"By the way, Faur, are you sure Chen can cure your father's disease?" Winnip asked.
"Yes, Chen definitely has a way. He's the best doctor I've ever seen."
"Then why is he an illegal doctor?"
"Because illegal doctors earn more than legal doctors. At least, he earns more than me."
"Did you hear that? This guy's a greedy * sshole. He only cares about money."
"Laurent, you really don't need him to treat you?"
"He's not the only shameless person in the world. Why must I find him to treat me?"
"At least he won't take your money," Winnip said.
Laurent was speechless. "Kane, do you know any gangs? Find someone to beat that * sshole up."
"Mr. Laurent, if you want to find someone to beat him up, you better find the entire gang. If it's just a few people, it'll be hard to achieve your goal."
"Aren't you professionals? Can't you deal with him? "
