After finishing the meal, Lisko went to check out. This restaurant only accepts cash and cannot accept credit cards. Lisko was notified when he ordered the meal, so he took out the change he had prepared earlier, and the two of them only spent thirty dollars in total. .

Early in the morning, after Lisko finished washing, he ordered breakfast in the hotel, which consisted of cowboys, fried eggs and sandwiches. The breakfast here is provided free of charge. Lisko waited at the hotel after finishing his breakfast. He made an appointment with his agent Rube. Megan changed her clothes and went to the StayFit fitness center in the hotel. In her words, it is necessary for an excellent actress to keep in shape all the time.

"Lubo, you've gained a little weight again." Lisko stepped forward and hugged him.

"Hey, Li, the doctor said that I have vascular disease. I have quit drinking for half a year. You don't know how painful I am. There is no way. Life is important." Lu Bo followed Lisko into the room.

"Didn't I hear that you had a girlfriend? Why didn't you see it?" Lu Bo looked around.

"Going to the gym," Lisko replied, pouring a glass of water on the sofa and handing it to him.

"How's your business doing recently? Are there any good new writers?"

"Don't mention it." Lu Bo waved his hand angrily, "I had hoped to sign an author whose new book was in the top fifty of the sales list, but was snatched away by that bastard Logan."

Logan is also a well-known literary agent in New York. Lisko was poached by Logan several times when he first debuted, and Lu Bo formed a relationship with him because of this. The two met with cynicism.

"I can see it clearly. I have used up my luck to sign you. I also rested my mind and took care of your copyright at ease. I am old and in poor health." Lu Bo was a little depressed. After being physically ill, he was terrified. The doctor told him that if he continued to drink heavily, he might not live for five years.

However, Lu Bo was addicted to alcohol when he was young. The court sentenced the son to his ex-wife. However, the relationship between Danley and Lu Bo was good, and it was because of his encouragement that Lu Bo worked hard and became a literary agent.

"Study is good, I will graduate soon, and the internship unit has booked the New York University Medical Center." Speaking of his son, Lu Bo's face is full of satisfaction.

Danley studied very well. When he was in college, he was admitted to medical school. Lisko also wrote a letter of recommendation for him to enroll in an American university.

Give some gifts that you can get at hand, and read them when others use them. He will think of you when he arrives. Although he and Lisko came through the low tide together, he must always protect him.
