Chapter 14 Party Battle (I)

"Hey sweetheart, I have something to tell you, don't be angry..." A little hand drew circles on Jack's chest.

Seeing Rachel's expression was a little unnatural, he held down her restless calf, kissed her forehead gently and said: "Honey, you should say it when you doi, so that no matter what it is, I will say 'Yes'. Now..."

Rachel was amused by his frivolous look, and patted him on the chest with a coquettish voice: "You can pull up your pants now."

Jack smiled and lifted the slender and smooth calf to his waist: "You know I won't refuse you."

"You are becoming more and more like a jerk..."

Looking at Jack's profile in the moonlight, Rachel's eyes were blurred, and she pressed her lips on his neck and said: "Yesterday, Monica also said that she was going to hold a farewell party for Ross..."

"What? You mean, Monica is preparing a party, but didn't inform me?!" Jack looked at Rachel in his arms in astonishment.

"Don't think too much... Monica is just afraid that you and Joey will ruin the party..." Rachel comforted.

Although Monica had told her not to tell Jack, she didn't expect that Jack actually wanted to go with Monica and also wanted to hold a surprise party for Ross.

If she didn't know, it would be fine. The damn thing was that she heard the conversation between Joey and Jack, which put her in a dilemma. After a night of ideological struggle, she decided to tell Jack.

After all, she might not be able to coax Monica, but she was still confident that she could coax Jack.

"No! Monica is depriving me of the right to plan a party! I can't accept it! Isn't my party great?" Jack was indignant.

Rachel didn't expect Jack's reaction to be more intense than she thought: "Your party is the best party I've ever attended..."

Hearing this, Jack's indignation disappeared immediately.

Seeing Jack gradually calm down, Rachel breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the psychology class she took when she was a college student.

"You know how...fun your party is, but Ross has to catch a flight the next day. Monica may also be worried that he will have too much fun and delay Ross's plan..."

"Okay..."

Listening to Rachel's explanation, Jack's tone softened completely.

The hidden danger was successfully eliminated, and a stone in Rachel's heart fell to the ground, and her little hands began to be dishonest.

Feeling that the hardness was moderate, Rachel smiled charmingly, pouted her lips, and showed a pitiful look: "Honey, you have to pretend that you don't know that Monica is going to have a party, otherwise..."

Jack swallowed his saliva at the pitiful look. Just as he said just now, if you ask a man at this time, he will even agree to pick the stars in the sky for you.

...

Early the next morning, Jack went downstairs to find Joey to tell him that the party was cancelled. The one who opened the door was Chandler, who was in a suit and tie but had deep eyes. It was obvious that he had been in a bad mood yesterday.There will be another big battle in the evening.

"You don't look very well..." Jack said a little worriedly.

"It's just... just some small problems..." Chandler's voice was a little weak. He pulled his waist after just two steps. He leaned on the door sill and gasped. Jack quickly helped him sit down.

He took a box of milk from the refrigerator and was about to tear it open. After thinking about it, he put it in the microwave: "Brother, if you continue like this, you will definitely spend Thanksgiving in a month in the hospital."

"'Stick out your tongue' is not as miserable as 'Young Master, do you want turkey?'" Chandler rubbed his waist.

That was his most miserable Thanksgiving.

At that time, little Chandler was still in shock about his father coming out and abandoning his wife and children. The servant actually asked him with a smile if he wanted turkey.

Since then, he never ate Thanksgiving turkey again.

"You need to rest..." Jack pressed Chandler who was about to get up: "Give me your boss's phone number, I'll ask for leave for you."

Chandler didn't object. He felt that he really needed to have a good sleep, so he gave Jack his boss's phone number.

A low female voice came from the phone, and it didn't take much time to successfully ask Chandler for leave. The microwave also made a "ding" sound.

Chandler's trembling hands didn't tear open the milk carton for a long time, and Jack shook his head. He simply fried an egg for him and grilled a few slices of bacon.

Watching him lie on the bed after eating, Jack gently closed the door and walked to the door of Joey's room.

Sure enough, there was no one inside, otherwise Joey would have appeared as early as the moment the bacon kiss rose. I don't know where he went to have fun at night.

Out of the apartment, New York has become a little cold, which makes Jack a little uncomfortable. He went upstairs and put on a long-sleeved shirt before sitting in the cafe.

Rachel brought him a cup of espresso in time, skillfully took out money from his trouser pocket, took out a five-dollar bill and put it on the tray: "Have you told Joey?"

Although Jack had given up the idea of holding a party, he had not yet reached an agreement with Joey. If Joey accidentally let it slip, she would be in trouble.

"He's not at home." Jack drank a sip of coffee to come back to his senses: "Don't worry, I'll wait for him here."

Rachel was relieved a little and turned around to continue her work.

Just then, the phone rang. Jack picked up the phone, but there was no sound on the other end. Jack immediately guessed who called him, and did not speak, waiting quietly.

After nearly a minute of silence, the other side finally spoke: "Xavier...how is it?"

"It's Geralt who is in love with Xavier. Shouldn't you ask him, Uncle Cod?"

Jack was also helpless about this arrogant uncle who said he hated him but acted upright.

It was Kud who called. He knew about his son and Sylvie early in the morning. There are no secrets in the Upper East Side.

"Geralt and you know each other.That's all." Kud picked up a document and flipped through it.

Jack rolled his eyes at this, as if he was Geralt's father, but he also knew why Kud called him, just to get to know his future daughter-in-law.

"You'll like her."

Jack's answer was concise, but he felt that this was what Kud wanted to hear the most.

Kud was a little surprised, or a little unbelievable, when did his son's vision become so good that he actually found a girl that Jack could say so.

Another half a minute of silence, not a page of the document on the table was moved, Kud came back to his senses and slowly said: "Let Geralt take her home during Thanksgiving..."

Fxxx, Jack cursed in his heart, he really treated him as a mouthpiece, you two father and son see each other day and night, is it so difficult to say a word?

"No time! "Jack hung up the phone unhappily.

A gust of cold wind blew in, freezing him, and he looked back.

"Hey Jack! You're so nice to be here, lend me ten dollars first." Joey was overjoyed to see Jack, and hurried forward to drink his coffee.

"Counting these ten dollars and this cup of coffee, you already owe me thirty-two dollars." Jack smiled and took out ten dollars and handed it to Joey.

"Is it that much already? ! If it weren't for that damn temperature, I could have run back..."

Joey, who was carrying a huge debt, sat down on the sofa dejectedly, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly searched in his pocket.

Thread ends, a bunch of keys, a stack of condoms, and a thumb-sized toy soldier.

"Hey Jack, I'll mortgage Shaw to you, and you lend me another ten dollars. When I have money, I will definitely redeem him! "

Looking at the toy soldier in Joey's hand, Jack's forehead flashed a black line, but he still took out ten dollars and gave it to him, and took the toy soldier.

"Are you short of money recently?" Jack asked while playing with the toy soldier.

"I don't have as stable an income as Chandler and others, and I have less work recently. I suspect that I didn't get intimate with my agent last time, and she deliberately reduced my work." Joey said helplessly. If his agent looked a little better, he would have taken action.

"So, Jack, I think Monica should be in charge of the party."

He was so poor that he mortgaged "Shor".

"....Okay, let Monica do it, and we will pretend that we know nothing."

Although he failed to hold a great party, I believe Rachel will reward him well tonight.

"By the way, why don't you consider changing your agent? "Jack suggested: "I know a pretty good agency, would you like me to introduce them to you?"

The Li mentioned by Fabio is from a family in the entertainment industry, and he does have a few pretty famous agencies under his control.

"Brother, I appreciate your kindness, butWorking for a friend's ex-girlfriend is not a good choice. "Joey patted Jack earnestly.

"..."

Jack looked at Joey speechlessly and wanted to explain, but he thought it was better to forget it.

"But I am going to participate in an experiment recently. As long as I pass the experiment, I can get one thousand US dollars. Then I will have money to redeem Shaw and have money to hold a party!" Joey raised his eyebrows and said proudly.

Just when Jack was curious about what experiment had so much reward, a voice interrupted them.

"Party? What party? Who is going to hold a party? !"

The two looked in the direction of the voice, and Monica was looking at them with a vigilant face.

"Hey! Monica, we are talking about...waiting for Ross to come back and whether to hold a party for him. "When Jack saw it was Monica, he quickly made up an excuse before Joey could, and winked at Joey.

Joey was stunned for a moment. Although he didn't quite understand what Jack meant, he nodded in agreement: "Ah... yes, yes, yes."

Rachel also saw Monica at this time, and nervously came up to look at Jack. Seeing Jack gave her an 'ok' gesture, she was relieved and smiled at Monica: "Honey, don't you have to go to work today?"

Take off your clothes and hang them on the coat rack. Monica glanced at Jack and Joey with some suspicion. Seeing that they were not talking about the farewell party she had prepared, she was relieved: "Today, the restaurant has a temporary inspection, and we have a day off..."

"Why do you suddenly want to have a party?"

"Joey said that we have been apart for a long time recently, and we want to have a party to have fun, right, Joey? "Jack laughed. Since he didn't get a surprise party, it would be nice to have a welcome party.

Joey nodded. This was his original intention. When Ross comes back, he should get his experimental reward.

"Come on Monica. The apartment hasn't been lively for a long time..." Jack said coquettishly.

She will hold a farewell party in two days. Monica complained in her heart, but she couldn't say it now because the situation is exactly as Jack said.

Meeting the expectant eyes of the two, Monica had to admit: "Okay... Actually, I'm already preparing a farewell party for Ross..."

Seeing Monica's self-explosion, Jack pretended to be surprised and said: "Really?"

Joey cheered: "Great! "

Jack immediately suggested: "I have a great idea... Monica, look..."

Monica saw that something was not going well and stopped him firmly: "No, Jack, this is just a simple farewell party..."

She did feel a little guilty for not telling Jack and Joey about the party, but she absolutely could not let them participate in the planning of the party.

"You just need to arrive on time."

"Why? ! Monica!" Jack was a little unhappy: "Ross is also our friend!"

"I just don't want you to be so...Bad party..."

As soon as she said that, Monica realized that she had said the wrong thing and immediately shut up, but she was met with Jack's angry eyes.

"Monica, so this is what you think in your heart..."

Jack was really angry this time, he is the 'king of the party'.

"Sorry, Jack, that's not what I meant..." Monica hurriedly explained.

"Bad, your boring party is bad, you just know that your party is not as good as mine, so you deliberately didn't tell me, right?"

"Hey! Boy, do you want to compete?"

Jack's words also completely aroused Monica's competitive spirit.

"Let's compete! "Jack refused to give in.

"OK, if I lose, I won't stop you from having a party in your apartment anymore. If you lose..."

"I'll put up a notice at the entrance of the cafe, publicly admitting that you, Monica, throw a better party than me! !"

"It's a deal! !"

The two quickly made a bet. Ross was leaving in five days. Monica, Rachel and Phoebe would hold a party for Ross in three days, while Jack would hold a party for Ross with Joey and Chandler on the fourth day.

The judge was Ross himself, and both parties could not notify the judge, otherwise they would be directly judged as losers.

There was also an upper limit on the amount of money for the party, which could not exceed five hundred dollars.

"Ahem. "Gunther took a piece of paper and read it.

"If Monica wins, Jack needs to post a notice at the entrance of Central Perk Cafe, publicly admitting that his party is not as good as Monica's, and contract Monica's coffee money for a month."

"If Jack wins, Monica will no longer stop Jack from holding parties in the apartment, and contract Jack's house cleaning for a month."

"Are both parties clear?"

"Clear!"

Jack and Monica pressed their fingerprints on the paper at the same time.

After the bet was established, Monica took Rachel and left. She must not lose this battle. Once she lost, the apartment would be completely reduced to hell.

Jack also led Joey upstairs. He also had a reason not to lose. Once he lost, where would he put his face as the "king of the party"?
