Chapter 184 Upper Class

Robert was recruited, and the laboratory was being built intensively, but Li Zhenzhen knew that scientific research could not be rushed. She left sufficient funds for the laboratory, recruited several staff members to be responsible for daily operations, and put the laboratory aside for the time being. She hoped that she would plant a small sapling now, and it would grow into a towering tree in the future.

Time slipped away quietly, and in December, the climate in Boston became colder and colder, but the Christmas atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic. The United States is a typical white country, and Christmas should be the most grand holiday here. Although Li Zhenzhen also celebrated Christmas in Hong Kong, it was not as grand as the Americans.

Before December, the shops on the street had already started the Christmas sales. Some shops even offered sales of 10% to 20% off. This is the biggest sales season of the year. Almost all American housewives would run to the stores to line up and grab things. Yes, they would grab things. Li Zhenzhen was shocked when she saw it at first. It was as if the goods were free. The housewives picked them up and threw them into the shopping carts. Each of them bought several large carts. In the end, the whole family was mobilized to carry them back.

During Christmas, not only are there many discounts on goods, but many are also tax-free. So Li Zhenzhen saw people standing in line outside the store overnight, shivering even in their blankets, just to get the tax-free goods first. Sam even called her to tell her the good news that their sales during Christmas were equivalent to the sales of a quarter. It shows how crazy the American people are.

In such a crazy shopping craze, Christmas gifts are also popular products. Li Zhenzhen also sent people to buy a lot in advance. Fortunately, she prepared early, otherwise when people started to buy, she would not be able to buy gifts even if she wanted, because many stores were sold out.

Every day when she walked on the street, she could hear bursts of Christmas music coming from residents' homes and roadside stores. The streets and alleys were also decorated with lights and colors. Even in schools, the Christmas trees were put out early, and many students even wore Christmas hats early. When they met each other, they would say Merry Christmas to each other.

It can be said that Christmas is a carnival season for Americans and a day for them to reunite with their families. Before the Christmas holiday, Li Zhenzhen's classmates wanted to hold a Christmas party in advance and sent her an invitation.

The person responsible for sending her the invitation was Johnny Bryan, who was both the contact person in their class and a core member of the Alfar fraternity. From the latter, we can see that this guy has a great background. In American universities, fraternities have thresholds. Either you have outstanding personal abilities or you rely on your father to get to the top. The history of the Alfar fraternity is as long as that of Harvard. Its members of all generations can scare people. Let's put it this way, many presidents, congressmen, judges, and CEOs of multinational companies are its members.

Now, Johnny Blair took out a hot-stamped invitation and handed it to her, stroking his temples in a self-confident and handsome manner. He was indeed very handsome, with a head of pure golden hair combed in a very stylish way, and a handsome face with clear edges and corners. His deep blue eyes sparkled with a moving light, and he said to Li Zhenzhen affectionately: "Li, do I have this honor? Invite you to be my female companion? "

Johnny Bryan made such a gesture. Although he was in the back corner of the classroom, many students who had not walked far could not help but slow down their pace and eavesdrop on their movements. Those who were still sitting in their seats were even more direct. They turned their chins and secretly glanced at the two of them with the corner of their eyes.
