Chapter 3 (1/2)

Jimmy's family lives in a community three blocks away from Wang Kai's rented apartment. This community has been very old for a long time. The people living here are the bottom of the middle class and can't survive hunger. There are many such people in the United States.

Although the house has been very old for a long time, it is always better than Wang Kai's doghouse apartment. Wang Kai cleaned up his things, went into the kitchen and began to prepare dinner.

Jimmy's father is a taxi driver. In the past, he drove a box car to transport goods. Later, he became a taxi driver. It's also very hard to go to work every day and go home at night. Jimmy's mother divorced Jimmy's father when Jimmy was young. This kind of thing is very normal in contract marriage countries in Europe and America.

When they see it, they live together. If they don't like it or conflict with their own ideas, they will divorce. Therefore, Jimmy has not been greatly affected, but Jimmy's father has suffered. The family has lost a source of income and can only give up the delivery job and find a taxi driver with a slightly higher income. Even so, Just barely make a living. When Jimmy was a little older, he would do odd jobs, deliver newspapers and take out food.

Fortunately, Jimmy's father is not the kind of man who decadent in a little setback. He won't drink and scold Jimmy. Jimmy had a happy childhood. Now Jimmy's father has found a new girlfriend. Although it's not very good-looking, it's also kind.

”Hey, Kai, long time no see.”

In the evening, after Jimmy's father followed his girlfriend home, he saw Wang Kai busy in the kitchen and said hello. He and Wang Kai were also very familiar. He knew that this was his stupid son's best friend in school. It was also because of Wang Kai that his son did not become a friendless freak.

”Long time no see, Ben, Kelly.”

Wang Kai turned to say hello to Jimmy's father and his girlfriend. Jimmy's father's name is Ben Akins and his girlfriend's name is Kelly brown. He is a salesperson who works at the supermarket counter. When he gets off work every night, Ben will pick her up. There is a marriage certificate between them. Kelly already lives at Jimmy's house.

”Kay, are you cooking? I didn't know you had this skill.”

Kelly put down her bag and went to the kitchen to cook, but when she saw Wang Kai wearing an apron and a spatula, she said curiously. She also knew that this was her boyfriend's best friend. She had come home to eat before, but she didn't know that Wang Kai could cook.

”Of course, you and could have enjoyed a big Chinese meal today.”

Wang Kai said that although there are many Chinese restaurants in the United States, the prices are not cheap. Of course, there are cheap ones, but they only provide fried noodles or fried rice, that is, the paper box often appears in movies and television. There are also lucky cookies, that is, a crispy cake wrapped with a small note, on which some soul chicken soup or lucky numbers are written, This is not the product of China at all.

”Wow, I really want to try it. Ben often said to take me to Chinese cuisine, but he hasn't gone yet.”

Kelly is not familiar with Wang Kai. She doesn't know whether Wang Kai can cook or not, but it's hard to doubt that Wang Kai is already in the kitchen. However, seeing that everything in the kitchen is still in order, she can only choose to trust Wang Kai.

”Why didn't you eat Chinese food? Didn't we eat it the day before yesterday? Kai, what are you doing? It's so delicious. I'm really looking forward to today's dinner.”

Ben took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator and said. When he came to the kitchen, he asked about the aroma, which made Ben believe in Wang Kai's craft.

”Is fried rice also Chinese cuisine? Although you bought it in a Chinese restaurant, you are too coping. If it wasn't Kai, I don't know when I would be able to eat Chinese cuisine.”

Kelly gave Ben a blank look. If fried rice is what she said about Chinese cuisine, she can eat Chinese cuisine every day.
