Lu Ke rubbed her head. "Really, Andrea has one too."
Talia said, "Ah, then I'll go get her." Then she ran away.
Lu Ke shrugged, called Joseph in, and closed the door.
Compared to Robert's house, this was a bungalow, and it was a little narrow.
Selina's parents, two sisters, and one brother lived here. There were six people living in this one-hundred-square-meter bungalow.
Thus, Talia quickly brought her younger sister, Andrea, over.
The six-year-old Lolita also happily accepted the gift. This time, the two sisters remembered to say thank you before running back to their room.
Hearing the chatter inside, it was clear that the two girls were already trying on new shoes.
With a bang, a door opened not far away, and Selina came out wrapped in a towel.
Seeing Lu Ke, she just nodded. "You're here. Sit down first, I'll go put on some clothes."
Lu Ke smiled and nodded, but his eyes didn't hold back. He watched the slim but fit body walk back to her room.
On the side, Joseph lowered his head and played with the football in his hands, completely ignoring the beautiful girl who had just walked past.
A moment later, Talia and Andrea ran out instead of Selina. "Luke, Luke, look, do we look good in these shoes?"
Lu Ke lowered his head and held his forehead. "Who tied these shoelaces?"
The two sisters pointed at each other. "Her."
Okay, it was clear that the two girls knew they couldn't look at the shoelaces.
They were impatient and eager to wear new shoes, so they just put the shoelaces through the holes, pulled them a few times, and tied them into an awkward … dead knot.
Lu Ke could only call the smaller Andrea over and let her sit down. He took off one of her shoes and pulled out the knotted shoelaces, threaded them neatly through the holes, and tied a beautiful bow on it.
"Here, just put it on." Lu Ke grabbed the little girl's foot and pushed it into the shoe, putting it on for her.
Andrea looked at the shoe carefully. "Hmm, Luke, you're so smart, much smarter than Talia. She's so stupid, messing up my shoelaces."
Talia was displeased. "You're still talking about me? Look, didn't you mess up my shoelaces too?"
Lu Ke smiled and shook his head. No wonder they were pointing at each other just now. They were exchanging shoelaces for each other.
The two sisters started to quarrel again, arguing about who was the stupidest.
At this moment, Selina came out wearing a loose T-shirt and hot pants.
Hearing the content of the quarrel between her two younger sisters, then looking at the shoes on their feet, she immediately frowned. "Why did you buy such expensive things for them?"
The shoes Lu Ke bought for his friend were not cheap. They were the new summer collection from New Balance, and they were on sale for 99 US dollars.
Lu Ke: "Because your mom invited me to dinner."
Selina said, "Nonsense. All the dishes she cooked tonight aren't even worth a pair of shoes."
Lu Ke: "… Are you belittling your mother's hard work?"
Selina said, "Fine, I was wrong. It's the cost of ingredients for dinner."
Lu Ke shrugged. "But I don't feel like I'm helping her much, so isn't it normal to give her a small gift?"
Selina said, "It's not normal. Take the shoes back and return them. I saw that the label on the shoes hasn't been cut off. Lister will probably return them. "
Lu Ke sneered. "Fine, I can't be bothered to look at Lister's ugly face. At most, you owe me a favor. "
Selina said, "My favor is worth 200 US dollars? Oh, no, 198 US dollars? "
Lu Ke smiled and shook his head. Selina looked and saw that it was a beautiful cake.
Just by looking at the packaging, Selina knew that it was from the dessert shop in town, and she had said several times that she wanted to eat this cake.
Unfortunately, this cake was big and expensive. It cost 80 US dollars.
Selina couldn't bear to spend so much money on a cake.
She narrowed her eyes and stared at the cake for a moment, then at him for a moment. Suddenly, she smiled. "Fine, for the sake of this cake, I owe you this favor."
Lu Ke actually remembered that she said she wanted to eat this cake. In that case, she didn't want to care about anything else.
Also, as Lu Ke's partner, she knew that Lu Ke almost didn't spend money.
At most … in the future, when she treated him to a meal, she would make it clear that he didn't bring gifts.
After this conversation, Selina's mother, Sandra, also came out.
Selina's mother really wasn't old at all. She gave birth to Selina at the age of 16 and was only 40 this year. She was full of maturity and charm.
Perhaps this was because she and her husband had good luck. They had obtained a green card in a few years and had a daughter who was even better. She had become a police officer in a small town early on and had a stable income.
Compared to other people from Mexico, her life could be said to be happy and stable.
As for the time when she shot the intruder, it wasn't a big deal at all.
As for the fact that Lu Ke had brought gifts for all three of her daughters, she didn't care much.
It wasn't until even her youngest son, Julio, received a baseball and baseball glove that she looked at Lu Ke in surprise. "… Tell me, when do you plan to marry Selina?"
Lu Ke: "Huh?"
Selina laughed on the side. "Now you know why I told you not to bring so many gifts, right? Because Sandra will think that you are trying to please me. "
Sandra: "Isn't that so?"
Lu Ke smiled bitterly and shook his head. "No, we are partners. It's not strange to give gifts, right? "
Sandra pursed her lips. "What's the name of Selina's previous partner? Oh, Hank. That guy came to our house for a few meals but never brought a gift. He even packed food home. And he said he wanted to pursue Selina. Do all police officers pursue their partners like this? "
Lu Ke was shocked and looked at Selina. "Hank really did that?"
Selina nodded. "So I rejected him harshly and told him to wake up and stop dreaming. Then he resigned. "
Lu Ke: "… Hank is single because of his own ability. What's wrong with that?"
The mother and daughter: "Huh?"
After chatting for a while, Selina called her two sisters, who were still showing off, to bring out the dishes. Dinner was about to begin.
Lu Ke asked, "Where's Marino?" This was Selina's father.
Sandra: "He has been resting at the ranch recently. There are several cows that are about to give birth. He can't leave."
Lu Ke understood.
Marino worked as a cowboy on a ranch outside of town. His salary was average, but it was stable.
As long as the ranch didn't close, he would have food to eat.
But once the ranch got busy, he wouldn't have time to go home every day.
