Chapter 386: The injury on Lacey’s face, news about Mona’s father

 Special Investigation Team, office area.

The injuries on Lacey's face were not serious, and she used cosmetics to cover them up. Unless they looked closely, ordinary people could not see the marks on Lacey's face.

But there are no ordinary people in the Special Investigation Team. Mona, Michelle and Roan quickly discovered the cover-up Lacey put on her face.

Mona quickly moved her chair to Lacey's side and asked with concern on her face:

 “What’s going on? What happened to you last night?”

While talking, Michelle wanted to pull Lacey to sit on a chair, but Lacey hurriedly took a step back to avoid Michelle's hand. Only then did Mona and Michelle realize that Lacey's arm was also injured. A little injury.

"hehe…"

 Seeing Roan, Mona and Michelle all focusing on her, Lacey smiled awkwardly:

“It’s okay, it’s just that I accidentally touched it while driving last night. I just need to rest for a day and it will be fine.”

"Your excuse is as clumsy as if you accidentally fell down while walking on the road."

Luo An poured a cup of coffee and handed it to Lacey, smiling:

“I remember you left with Chenier yesterday... You won’t attack Chenier, right?”

Luo An doesn’t know Chenille’s orientation, but because she works in the International Business Department, Chenille’s mind and senses are very sensitive.

If Lacey really took advantage of Chenille's drunkenness last night and took advantage of her, she might have been beaten a few times by Chenelle's subconscious reaction.

 “Not Chenelle.”

Lacey shook her head repeatedly. She had always been the main attacker when getting along with people of the same sex. After learning about Chenelle's amazing performance in the warehouse, she briefly compared her own skills with Chenelle's and found that she probably couldn't beat her. .

Chenelle also has a strong character, and I'm afraid there will be a fight over who will be on top. Lacey can't beat her, and she doesn't want to be on the bottom, so she lost interest in Chenelle.

 Seeing the curiosity in the eyes of Luo An, Mona and Michelle, who would not give up until the reason was asked, Lacey twitched the corner of her mouth, remained silent for a few seconds, and whispered:

　　…Well, it was an accident.”

  Lacie said that she met a female college student majoring in acting at a university in Los Angeles in a bar last night.

 The experienced Lacey quickly returned to the other party's university dormitory with the other party, preparing to return to college.

In the dormitory, Lacey played a game with a female college student who is good at acting. As a result, the other party's acting skills were too superb. She accidentally misunderstood her roommate who had learned some women's self-defense and fighting skills. She must not be distracted by alcohol and critical moments. Under the influence, Lacey didn't react at all.

　　　…”

Roan, Mona and Michelle all rolled their eyes, turned around and left Lacey aside, selectively ignoring Lacey's next words of help for some trivial matters.

 The day of the special investigation team once again reached the end of the day with a lot of fights and fights. Tomorrow and the next two days are Saturday and Sunday. Michelle, like before, bought some fast food and went home to read.

Lacie went straight to the bar as usual, even though her right arm was inconvenient and couldn't suppress her restless heart, she still had a left arm anyway.

Due to being busy with cases these past few days, the rental house has not been tidied up very much. Mona drove her car home first. Luo An finally left the special investigation team and used the public car privately to start the SUV and go to a large supermarket to buy ingredients.

 Luo An has not eaten hot pot since he came to this world. He plans to have a big meal tonight to satisfy his craving.

The supermarket Luo An went to was a large membership supermarket in Los Angeles. Luo An did not take the initiative to apply for the membership card, but it was one of the convenient little gains he got after the previous bombing of the first lady, like lifetime discounts or free hotel rooms.

 The supermarket has a wide variety of meat and seafood, and Luo An bought a lot of them.

There are not too many types of vegetables, but not too many. Luo An only picked some types that Mona likes to eat on weekdays.

 After buying a mandarin duck hot pot, Luo An drove to a Chinese store and bought two kinds of spicy and non-spicy hot pot bases.

 The two of them had some entertainment after the meal. It might not be very convenient if the food is too spicy.

 In the rental house, Mona looked at the boiling mandarin duck pot and a lot of ingredients, tilting her head in confusion:

“This is... hotpot (hot pot)?” “That’s right, have you eaten it before?”

“I ate it once in Chinatown with some classmates when I was in college. It was very spicy.”

 Mona talked about this with a frightened expression on her face:

 “I felt sick to my stomach for a long time after eating.”

“So I made two flavors today, you can have the non-spicy one.”

Luo An mixed the dipping sauce and handed it to Mona, and then took a piece of meat from the non-spicy grid and put it into Mona's bowl.

Took a bite, and Mona’s eyes lit up:

 “It’s not spicy, and it tastes pretty good.”

“There is also seafood here that I have prepared. You can try it.”

 “OK.”

It is naturally not suitable to drink red wine when eating hot pot. Luo An and Mona chatted while drinking beer. During this period, Mona also tried to eat a few mouthfuls of food in the spicy pot. Her ears turned red, her heartbeat accelerated, and Luo An's lips became dry.

After finishing the hot pot, the two simply cleared the table. When they opened the window to let out the smell, Luo An sat on the sofa with Mona in his arms, and they rested quietly together watching the program on the TV.

Snapped-

Suddenly, Mona grabbed a restless hand on her body and gave Luo An a pair of white eyes.

 Luo An chuckled, and just as he was about to turn up the sound of the TV program, Mona suddenly stood up from his arms, looked at Luo An and said seriously:

“Luo An, I received a message before that my father will return to the Federation in about a month.”

　　　…”

Hearing this, Luo An's agitated heart suddenly cooled down and he was a little confused:

“I remember you said before that your father would return to the Federation in six months?”

 At that time, Roan and Mona were still in New York, and it has only been two and a half months now.

 “He didn’t tell me why the time was advanced.”

Mona shook her head. She didn't know what the reason behind it was. She told Luo An about this because she wanted to ask Luo An what she should do.

Not seeing each other for many years, her mother died alone without anyone, but her father never stopped giving her money on time for many years so that she could go to college... These things made Mona have complicated feelings towards her father, and she didn't know how to deal with it. to each other.

Luo An reached out and hugged Mona into his arms again, whispering to comfort Mona. At the same time, his expression was a little strange.

　　This is the first time in his two lives that Luo An has to face a creature like his girlfriend’s father. It would be false to say that he is not nervous, but he is extremely nervous and not afraid... in short, his emotions are quite complicated.

 Because of this incident, Luo An and Mona lost interest tonight. They lay on the bed and hugged each other and slept quietly all night.

The next day, Saturday, seeing that Mona was in a low mood and absent-minded, and listless when washing up, Luo An took her directly to the Los Angeles Disneyland, visited all the areas inside, and played crazily for a whole day from opening to closing. sky.

In the evening, the two of them watched a movie in the cinema, and then went to the restaurant Luo An had booked before, where they rested and enjoyed the food.

A few hours later, in the apartment at night, Mona pushed Luo An onto the sofa, grabbed the collar of Luo An's clothes, raised her chin and looked down, and asked arrogantly:

 “Say, what crime have you committed?”

 Looking at his cuffed hands, Luo An grinned.
