When Chen Zhao brought Ethan into Rasfa"s manor, it was like bringing a country b.u.mpkin into the city.
Chen Zhao got second-hand embarra.s.sment, even though he"d had a similar expression the first time he came too. However, he felt like he"d seen the world. How come he was with someone like Ethan now?
"Ethan, don"t be so embarra.s.sing."
"How am I embarra.s.sing? What I"m expressing now is the curiosity that everyone has."
"If a professor said that, I wouldn"t find it weird. But coming from you, it just feels wrong."
By now, Daniel had come over. He"d heard earlier that his grandpa was going to hold a party and that Chen Zhao would attend, so he came over early.
"Chen, you"re here."
"Daniel, your color looks good. This is my friend Ethan."
"h.e.l.lo." Daniel also put on an enthusiastic expression. However, being a rich family"s son, this kind of smile was just out of politeness. They wouldn"t reveal their inner feelings to anyone. There was just some distance in their eyes.
However, Daniel didn"t show any distance on the surface.
"Let"s go. We"ll have fun on the beach first. It"s still early." As he spoke, Daniel patted Ethan"s shoulder.
"Do you dare go into the sea?"
"Uh…No…"
He had to admit that what had happened had heavily traumatized him. He knew that there was very little chance of it happening again, but he was just scared. He didn"t dare to go into the water.
On the beach, there were many young girls playing beach volleyball. Walter was the most excited about coming back to the beach. He ran into the crowd and helped the people fetch the ball.
"Chen, you got another pet? What"s it called?"
"Walter."
"Sell one to me. I"ll give you any price."
"If you can win over any of them, I"ll give it to you for free."
"Whatever. I"m not a Druid."
"Daniel, are there any rules here?" Ethan"s eyes were dazed. Seeing all these hot bikini-clad girls on the beach, his heart was burning.
Daniel laughed. "As long as it"s voluntary, you can do whatever you want."
Ethan was overjoyed. "Carrie, come to Uncle."
Carrie turned her head arrogantly, making Ethan feel awkward.
"Is it looking down on me? It must be…"
"Carrie, help Ethan. You"ve eaten his hamburgers before." Smiling, Chen Zhao handed Carrie to Ethan.
Ethan happily carried Carrie and ran into the crowd.
Carrie was filled with cuteness. She would become the center of women"s attention no matter where she went. No one would reject such an adorable little thing and Ethan actually did look like a successful man right now.
As expected, he attracted a crowd of people as soon as he went over. Beautiful young girls gathered around him.
"Hi, can I hug the little thing in your arms?"
Ethan looked at all the b.o.o.bs before his eyes and subtly wiped his mouth. "Of course. No problem."
"Wow, its fur is so soft. What kind of dog is it?"
"No, it"s not a dog. It"s a rare white fox. Her name is Carrie. She"s a girl."
Carrie had a bad temper, but she was obedient. She listened to Chen Zhao.
"What does your friend do?"
"What do you think he does?"
"A loser."
"Is it obvious?" Chen Zhao looked over at Ethan.
"He can probably fool those little girls if he can make up an alias."
"Aren"t they your friends?"
"No, my grandpa invited them," Daniel said nonchalantly. "They"re all models from a modeling company or actresses with no good opportunities. They"re here for opportunities, not for the party itself."
"What opportunities? To flirt with young rich guys like you?"
"They"re not interested in me. Maybe a few like my money, but they"re probably more interested in those producers and directors or investors."
Just then, Rasfa and Steven walked over and sat right down in the sand.
"Chen, when did you get here? I can"t believe you came to look at girls instead of visiting us two in the mansion?"
"You two old guys are nothing compared to girls," Chen said with disgust.
"Grandpa, Uncle Steven, Chen, I have some other friends coming. I"ll come back later."
Daniel clearly didn"t want to be with his grandpa and Steven, so he found an excuse to leave first.
"Steven, you look like you"re going a bit overboard these days."
"It"s because your treatment is so effective."
Steven had really recovered his energy.
The more one missed his past, the wilder one would go. Steven was like that. Plus, as a major director, he could have any girl he wanted.
"My treatment will only recover your functions in that aspect. It won"t make your stamina go back to when you were young. Don"t go too crazy if you don"t want to die too soon. I do want to watch some of your movies."
"Uh…Fine, I understand." Steven felt awkward too.
"Chen, should I get some girls for you later?" Rasfa asked, a bit fawningly. "I promise they"ll be the most beautiful ones."
"Rasfa, you"re just a d.i.c.k," Steven said with derision. "But I think your thoughts are unneeded. Look at those girls. They can"t look away after seeing us sit with Chen."
However, the girls knew their places. At least, they wouldn"t come over now.
"Chen, when is my next treatment?"
"Last time, Rasfa said you"re filming a movie now. You probably don"t have time, right?"
"Is it different from the last time?"
"About the same, but it"ll take two hours. Do you have the time?"
"Can you come on set? It"s in LA too."
"Sure. Contact me in a few days."
"Is that fat guy your friend?"
"Yeah, my first friend after coming to America."
"Should I arrange something for him?"
Chen Zhao thought for a moment and then nodded. "If that"s okay."
Ethan had no luck with girls. Maybe he checked all the boxes for repelling the opposite s.e.x. If he kept using his current way of flirting, it would be impossible.
However, this was no different from prost.i.tution… No, there was definitely a difference. The girls here were cla.s.sier.
Steven stood up and walked into the group of girls. Seeing him come, all their eyes practically gleamed.
He was one of the three top Hollywood directors. All of his movies had guaranteed box offices. No one who wanted to make a name for themselves in Hollywood could look over him.
"Girls, are you having fun chatting with my friend?" Steven patted Ethan"s shoulder as if they were old friends.
