[Is it because you've found your second love, and you don't like me as a burden? Is that why you're giving me a sum of money so that I won't disturb your new life?]
Issou's mother, who originally thought that she would say something, was speechless.
[Have you been watching some messy TV dramas lately?]
[Where?] Issou could hear the disdain in her mother's voice through the phone. She said confidently, [I've been so busy recently that I'm almost dog-tired, okay?]
[Oh.] Her mother said confidently, [Then you must have watched it in the past.]
Issou, "…"
[Don't change the subject.] Issou cleared her throat. [Just tell me if you don't like me as a burden.]
[Stop fooling around.] Her mother chuckled. [Is there a second burden in the world who's cuter than my good girl?]
Issou replied happily, [That's true.]
When she heard Issou's reply, her mother, who knew that she only heard the word "cute" and ignored the word "burden", was speechless.
My Big Baby might be a fool, right?
For a moment, her mother didn't know if it was a good idea for her to let Issou go to New York alone, because her silly look really made her feel uneasy.
Issou, who didn't know that her mother had already equated her with a silly look, breathed a sigh of relief when she found out that her mother didn't ask her to come to New York to kick her out of the house.
When her mother noticed this, she smiled and teased, [Good girl, are you afraid that I'll leave you behind?]
[Are you kidding?] Issou blinked. [I just don't want to take advantage of you. You raised me for a few years, and when you reach the legal retirement age, I'll pay you back double.]
[Then I might not live that long.]
[I don't care.] Issou said, [You raised me for 21 years, and when you retire, I'll pay you back for 42 years. Don't even think about going back on your word before I've paid you back.]
When she heard Issou's words, her mother's eyes flashed with gentleness. However, Issou didn't see it on the other end of the phone. She only heard her mother say, [It's not cheap to raise me. Are you sure you won't let me starve for 41 years of my retirement?]
Issou, "…"
This is really my mother!
After the phone call, Issou's heart and soul, but when she saw the various licenses and licenses, she couldn't help but have a smile's on her face.
After she put everything away, she decided to go to a nearby Issou's a taxi and go home.
What surprised Yi Su was that when she was paying the bill, she bumped into her landlord. "Old Stan?"
Old Issou ''s's's also Why are you're? "
"I was about to ask you the same thing." Issou pushed the trolley behind him. "I'm here on business. The fridge at home is empty, so I thought I'd buy something before going home."
"Oh, okay." Old Stan knew Issou was going to open a Chinese restaurant, so without asking, he knew what she was here for. "How was it? Was it successful? "
"Yes, it was very successful." At this point, Issou couldn't help but smile. "Now we're just waiting for the opening."
When Old Stan heard this, he first congratulated him and then said, "I'll be sure to visit often when the time comes."
"Thank you." Issou said, "But I still have to say, if you come, I won't let you order as you please."
The old man's height was the same as his age, so Issou didn't dare ask him to do anything rash.
"What happened to the promise that the customer is God?"
"But my restaurant is called 'My Chinese Restaurant'." Issou emphasized the word 'my'. In fact, she originally wanted to call it 'Chinese Restaurant', but unfortunately, it was registered by someone else, so she just called it 'My Chinese Restaurant'.
Issou continued, "Yes, the customer is God, but this is my territory, so I call the shots."
Old Stan was speechless.
She had a point, and he was speechless.
"By the way, you still haven't told me why you're here." Issou didn't want to dwell on this topic, so she changed the topic. "Is the Walmart in our area not open today?"
"Nope." Old Stan didn't expect Issou to change the topic again. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm here to meet an online friend."
"Online friend!!?" Issou, who didn't expect this answer, widened her eyes. She knew her landlord was a very cute and trendy old man, but she didn't expect him to be this trendy.
"Old man, you're so trendy. I haven't even met an online friend before."
Hearing this, Old Stan glanced at Issou. At his age, he always treated a young and cute child like Issou with the kindness and kindness of a grandchild, so when he heard what she said, he couldn't help but remind her, "You're still young. Don't meet online friends, it's dangerous."
"Besides, our situation is different."
As soon as he said that, he saw Issou's grape-like eyes sparkling with curiosity.
So Old Stan couldn't help but share his joy with Yi Su. He said, "At first, I just thought that I got to know a like-minded netizen, but I didn't expect that as we chatted, I found that she was very similar to an old friend of mine."
"I knew she lived in London, so I planned to fly to London to meet her, but who knew she would come to New York to play, so I asked her to meet me here today."
"At first, I wasn't sure. After all, we haven't seen each other for decades, but when I saw her today, I knew —"
"That's right!"
"It's her!"
"Her?" In English, he, she, and it were all different. Moreover, when she saw Old Stan's face beaming with joy, she suddenly felt like she smelled the scent of gossip.
"Looking at you, she's not your first love, is she?"
"And you're still single?"
Issou's questions popped out one after another, but Old Stan didn't need to answer because his smile said it all.
The black-haired girl suddenly said, "Oh ~", but then she thought it was a bit strange that he was here. "Then why didn't you guys go for dinner or something?"
Old Stan said, "I originally booked a restaurant, but she said she hasn't tasted my cooking for many years, so I decided to show off my skills tonight."
Hearing that, Issou glanced at Old Stan's cart and found that other than some ingredients, there was a bottle of red wine and scented candles.
Noticing Issou's gaze, Old Stan coughed lightly. Seeing that it was his turn, he didn't give her a chance to tease him and quickly went to pay the bill.
Seeing this, Issou almost died of laughter. After all, the old man's reaction was too cute.
When it was Issou's turn, she took out the things in the cart and asked Old Stan, who was waiting for her after paying the bill, "I bought a lot of things. If you're in a hurry, why don't you leave first?"
Old Stan said, "Who said I'm in a hurry?"
Issou was speechless.
That was very different from what he said, okay?
Issou glanced at Old Stan. Although the old man said he wasn't in a hurry, it was obvious that he wanted to personally empty out the things in her cart.
While Issou was thinking, something happened. A man rushed in with a gun in his hand. He pointed the gun at the cashier auntie and said, "Robbery!"
Issou was speechless.
Be reasonable.
Was she a bit unlucky recently?
But before Yi Su could react, she saw the cashier auntie who was scanning the goods with the scanner gun. She calmly raised her hand and pushed away the gun that was almost in front of her. "Wait, I'm paying the bill for the customer."
Issou, "…???"
The man with the gun was also confused. He probably didn't expect the cashier auntie to react like this, but he didn't forget the purpose of his visit. The gun that was pushed away quickly pointed at her again.
However, before the man could speak, he was hit in the back. He turned his head and saw the old man, who was waiting on the side, waving his cane and yelling at him, "Brat, didn't you hear that she's paying the bill? We're in a hurry. Would it kill you to wait until we're done with the bill? "
Issou, "…!!!"
Logically speaking, if the cashier auntie's calm expression just now made her a little dumbfounded, then Old Stan's action simply made her stupefied, okay?!
Everyone said that the auntie auntie was the scariest, but Issou felt that the New Yorkers were not to be trifled with either, because under their powerful aura, the robbers would be crushed into pieces.
Issou, "…"
Oh.
He felt an inexplicable heartache.
However, Yi Su's heartache did not last more than three seconds. She saw the men who were crushed by her domineering aura one after another raise their guns and fire at the ceiling. Then, the muzzle of the gun was aimed at the people closest to them other than the cashier auntie and Old Stan …
Issou.
Issou, "…!!!???"
