"Well..." the old man gave Sophia a look.
Sophia nodded: "Joe, now the work of the association is different from the past. It is basically some exchange meetings and piano competitions. There are many councils responsible for their own sections. You don't have much workload. You probably just hang your name."
"That's even worse."
Joanne looked sincere: "I'm just a junior. You just let those predecessors obey the orders of a junior. Sir, I beg you to spare me. I really can't do this job."
The old man looked at her with his lips pursed, and his face was not very good-looking.
Joan's eyes turned: "can I promise to be the judge of the piano competition?"
The old man nodded his head directly: "yes."
His reaction stunned Joanne. He felt that he had been routine.
When she looked at the past in surprise, the old man had recovered his smiling face: "the work of the judges is not complicated. Let Sophia send you a document later."
Joanne said, "OK."
What happened?
She wasn't going to be a judge? Why did you agree for no reason?
Sophia quietly gave the old man a thumbs up.
There is an old Chinese saying: ginger is still old and spicy!
……
After chatting with the old man for a while, the lunch arranged by Sophia was delivered. The three had a meal and chatted while eating. It was very comfortable.
"How long will you stay here this time?" The old man asked.
"It depends. It's up to half a month." Qiao an said, "besides seeing you, I have to deal with the winery I bought before."
"The one in tostown?" The old man said, "Sophia told me why she sold it? Didn't you buy it with your boyfriend?"
Speaking of this
Joanne smiled: "old man, your eyes are so poisonous. I really broke up with him."
The old man only met mu Haoyan once, and then talked to Joan alone. Although it was a joke, the meaning was very clear.
Mu Hao said the man didn't seem honest enough.
At that time, Joan fell in love with him wholeheartedly. In addition, the old man always wanted her to marry in America. To sum up, she didn't take the old man's words to heart.
Unexpectedly, it became a prophecy.
The old man curled his lips and smiled: "it's OK to divide it. You're not suitable. You should find someone in the piano industry who can better understand your talent."
Joanne just smiled: "old man, it's not urgent. Take your time."
The old man nodded, "yes, you are still young."
After dinner, Joan began to yawn. It's almost midnight in China now. Jet lag is a real thing.
The old man didn't leave her much: "go back and have a rest. Come and see me another day. At that time, I will check your homework."
Joanne smiled: "OK."
After saying goodbye to the old man, they set off again. Sophia drove with Joan to the hotel they had booked before.
"Joe, do you believe that the old man will arrange a blind date for you these days?" Sophia said with a smile.
Joanne was stunned: "no! The old man still wants to marry me in America?"
"That's natural. Only if you stay here can the old man deceive you to be his successor?"
"I'm young and have average attainments. I really can't take over his post."
"The main man has obsession." Sophia smiled, "but I have a suggestion."
"For example?"
"You can't find another Chinese partner to marry, so the old man can't help it."
Joanne: "... I have to say, it's a good idea."
Sophia just smiled, "it's so easy to find a marriage partner."
Joan's mind flashed across Huo Chengzhou's handsome face. The corner of her lips hooked and asked, "by the way, have you contacted the buyer of the manor?"
"Contacted." Sophia said, "it's the morning after tomorrow."
"OK." Joanne wrote down, "anyway, I must do it this time."
