1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Lu Chen left the cafeteria and prepared to inquire about the news. He didn't walk far before he met Andrew who had returned. Seeing Andrew, Lu Chen asked with concern:

"Andrew, I heard that you were called away by the first mate. Did something happen?"

Andrew smiled and said, "Nothing, just a daily work report."

Although Andrew was smiling, Lu Chen could see a hint of helplessness and pain in his smile. Lu Chen asked:

"Andrew, tell me the truth, why were you called in for a talk?"

Andrew said with a wry smile:

"It's nothing serious, actually. I was told by my superiors to release those scammers we caught yesterday."

Lu Chen frowned and said, "Are those scammers related to the leaders in your company?"

Andrew spread his hands and said helplessly: "I don't know about this either. The higher-ups just told me to release those people. They didn't tell me the reason. I'm so sorry, I have to release those scammers soon."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "This has nothing to do with you. You are just following orders. Please help me warn them when you let them out. If they come to trouble me again, I will use force next time."

Andrew nodded and said, "Don't worry about this, I will definitely warn them."

After chatting with Andrew for a while and knowing that Andrew was not in any trouble, Lu Chen left the cafeteria directly.

It was not known whether Hans's move frightened the con men or whether Andrew's warning worked. In the following days, the con men did not bother Lu Chen again. This made Lu Chen's subsequent journey very comfortable.

More than ten days later, Andrew was on vacation today, so he made an appointment with Lu Chen and Duncan to go to the bar for a drink.

Andrew pointed at the young lady singing on the dance floor and said:

"What do you think of her?"

Lu Chen looked at the young lady who was singing and said:

"She has long legs, a slim waist, and looks pretty good. She's a little beauty."

Duncan patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and said, "Brother, do you like her? Do you want me to call her over for a drink?"

Andrew next to him was even more direct. He stood up from his seat and walked towards the stage in the center of the dance floor.

When Lu Chen saw Andrew getting up to go to the dance floor, he immediately stood up to stop him.

"Andrew, sit down."

Duncan quickly stood up and pressed Lu Chen into the chair. Then he waved his hands vigorously at Andrew.

“Brother Andrew, go quickly.”

After saying that, he turned to look at Lu Chen and said with a smile:

"Brother Lu Chen, it's rare to find a girl you like. You'll be exhausted if you're alone on this long journey."

Andrew quickly came to the stage. He whispered a few words to the beautiful woman who was singing, then pointed at Lu Chen. Then he returned to the booth alone.

Seeing Andrew coming back alone, Duncan looked at Andrew in confusion.

“Brother Andrew, what’s wrong with you? Why did you come back alone?”

Andrew smiled mysteriously, then raised his glass and said to Lu Chen and Duncan:

"Don't be impatient, brother. Let's have a drink first."

Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Andrew coming back alone. Seeing Andrew raise his glass, Lu Chen also raised his glass.

But after hearing Andrew's words and that mysterious smile, Lu Chen felt something was wrong. He guessed that this kid was up to no good.

With this idea in mind, Lu Chen wanted to leave this troubled place as soon as possible.

He said to them:

"Brothers, I feel a little unwell today. Let's drink this glass of wine and then go home."

But how could Andrew and Duncan let Lu Chen go? After they drank a glass of wine, they filled Lu Chen's glass again. Then Duncan said:

"Come on, come on, after this one, there are still three more."

Soon the song was over, and Lu Chen was persuaded to drink two or three glasses of wine. Just when Andrew was about to let Lu Chen drink the fourth glass of wine, the beauty walked from the singing stage to their booth.

The beauty was very happy to see Lu Chen. She took the initiative to sit next to Lu Chen and then generously introduced herself to the three people present.

"Hello, my name is Evelyn."

"Hello, my name is Duncan."

“Evelin, I don’t need to introduce you to this person next to you.”

Andrew pointed at Lu Chen and said:

"This is my brother, Lu Chen. He is a captain in the U.S. Army and the owner of several companies."

Evelin asked for a glass of wine, then held it and said to Lu Chen:

"Mr. Lu, nice to meet you. Your singing of "Lemon Tree" is so beautiful. Did you write this song yourself?"

Lu Chen quickly waved his hands and said, "I didn't write this song. It was written by a band called Fools."

Evelin said, “Mr. Lu Chen, you are too modest. I have asked many friends about this song, and they all said they have never heard of it. I think this fool is probably you, Mr. Lu Chen.”

Lu Chen thought that you would definitely not be able to find out about this song. After all, this song was only released in the 1980s, so how could anyone have heard it now?

Lu Chen said: "This song is not written by an American. The band Fools is German, so of course you can't find out about it."

Evelin smiled and said, "Mr. Lu Chen, I am a German. I have never heard of the band you mentioned. I have no impression of this song either."

Lu Chen looked at Evelyn in surprise. He didn't expect that Evelyn was a German. Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said:

"Miss Evelyn, I didn't expect you were German. I admit that I did write this song."

Duncan looked at Lu Chen in surprise. Then he said to Lu Chen angrily:

"Lu Chen, I didn't expect you to lie to me and say that this song was not written by you. No, you must drink and apologize."

Lu Chen was helpless and could only pick up his glass and say:

"Okay, I'll drink this glass of wine as an apology to you."

After saying that, Lu Chen drank the wine in the glass.

Seeing Lu Chen finish his drink, Duncan said:

"Okay, Brother Lu Chen is very generous, let's just let this matter go."

Evelin looked at Lu Chen with dissatisfaction and said:

"Mr. Lu Chen, I've been holding this wine for quite some time, would you like to drink with me?"

Lu Chen looked at Evelin with a wry smile, then picked up another glass of wine, clinked glasses with Evelin and said:

"Miss Evelyn, it's nice to meet you. I'll drink this."

After saying that, Lu Chen gulped down the wine in the glass.

Evelin smiled and said, “Mr. Lu Chen is really generous. Then I’ll do it too.”

Just like that, Lu Chen fell drunk in the booth after being toasted by several people one by one.
