Three fashionably dressed girls with slim and tall figures and faces that looked like magazine models walked into the city center.
In a quiet restaurant.
These three noble and elegant beauties gathered together, attracting many admiring gazes on the spot.
Lei Congwen, who was wearing a light beige shirt and trousers paired with a dark beige long coat and a fur scarf around her neck, had yet to sit down. She could not wait to point at Liang Yongqian, who was sitting opposite her, with an expression that said," Tell me the truth."
Liang Yongqian, who was wearing dark blue denim pants and a coat of the same color, and a long scarf with red, black, and pink stripes around her neck, waved her hand, indicating for Lei Congwen to calm down. Then, she took the list handed by the waiter and handed it to her.
"Order as much as you want. It's my treat today.”She sounded like she was going to surrender.
"It's not just a few drinks that can eliminate the hatred in my heart for being ignored by you that day.”As Lei Congwen said this, her eyes quickly scanned through the list.
"Of course, of course. You can definitely add the dishes because the explanation you asked for is not something that I can explain in a few words.”
"Hiren, what do you want to eat? We have to be more enthusiastic. Don't let down Yongqian's painstaking efforts.”Lei Congwen elbowed Gao Xilun, who was next door.
Unlike the other two's elegant dressing, Cohiren was dressed more elegantly and demurely. He wore a coffee and white turtleneck sweater with a dark brown leather skirt. He was wearing the most popular mesh socks and ankle boots this year.
She pursed her lips and smiled. Although she did not agree with Lei Congwen's extortion, she did not stop her. The way she cared for her good friend was different from Lei Congwen's coercion and bribery. Before her good friend was willing to tell her, she would always wait quietly.
"Please!" Liang Yongqian said helplessly. "I'm fated to have a bad week anyway.”
"Hey! What do you mean? Is treating us to a meal something unlucky? Heren and I have emptied our hearts to hear what you have to say about what happened that day.”
"So, are you ready to listen to me quietly?”
"Nonsense! Otherwise, why would I sit here with you?”
What a good way to overcome all difficulties! She should be the one to say that. She had just flown back from the United States in the middle of the night last night. Before she could adjust to the time difference, she was woken up by Lei Congwen's phone call, which sounded like he was waiting for her, forcing her to meet him here at eleven o'clock sharp.
Rubbing her temples, which were hurting from the lack of sleep, she complained unhappily,"Why do you have to say it today? We'll be flying on the same plane tomorrow. Ten hours is more than enough for me.”
"How can that be? Hillon and I can't wait."
" It's 'you' who can't wait. Don't drag Hillen into this every time."”
"Are you sad that you can't sleep well?" Coxilun looked at her face with concern.
"Now you know, my ears are filled with the clanging of pots and pans.”Heavens! She was like a bear that needed to hibernate, eager to return to its warm nest.
"It's not because you didn't sleep well, but because there are really people throwing things outside. Washing basins, steel cups, toothbrushes, and so on.”Lei Congwen was like a passerby, looking out of the glass window with the mood of watching a show.
"Looks like someone couldn't pay the rent and was chased out by the landlord.”Coxilun looked sympathetically at the man who was being pushed out by a fat middle-aged woman while cursing. "It's a foreign man. How pitiful!”She could not help but ask.
This area was filled with small hotels. As it was not close to the bustling main road, the rent was relatively cheaper. The foreigner must have encountered difficulties and could not pay the rent.
"What's there to be pitiful about?" Lei Cong Wen did not think so.
"Some of the foreign workers these days are very detestable. They clearly don't go back when their term is up. They stay in Taiwan and spend all the hard-earned money, which is why they end up like this. He might have done it on purpose to get the lady boss to give him a job.”
"You two!" Liang Yongqian knocked on the glass table unhappily.
"Do you want to listen to me or watch the commotion outside? If you want to watch the commotion, can you let me go home and sleep first?”
What the hell! It was as if there were soldiers marching in her head, eager to finish talking and go home to sleep. However, the two of them ignored her pain and actually had the leisure to care about what was going on outside.
"Of course I'm listening to you. Tell me, my ears are listening.”Lei Congwen had no intention of looking away.
Coxilun, on the other hand, immediately retracted his gaze and looked at her with a focused expression.
"I don't care. I'm going to start talking.”She took a sip of water and started talking about what happened a week ago when she first sailed to Hamshi.
After a while…
"That's amazing! That lady boss. Her scolding skills had reached the acme of perfection. She was endless and rhythmic. Didn't she need to go back and drink some water?”
Liang Yongqian frowned slightly. If it wasn't for Gao Xilun nodding his head desperately to signal her to ignore Lei Congwen's words, she would have really picked up her handbag and left.
When it came to the hospital, it was the part that bothered her the most. She could not forget the anger she felt when she pushed open the door of the ward with big and small bags of food and toiletries. And the worry when she couldn't find the man after shuttling back and forth in the cold morning fog.
It was this inexplicable worry that made her curse herself, Hamshi, the airline, and that damned injured man in the cold air.
"It's really too amazing! The so-called person who could scold a dead person back to life should be like her. If only we could be like her, pointing at the annoying passengers on the plane and cursing their ancestors, how happy would that be!”
Liang Yongqian's words were interrupted again, and her brows furrowed even more tightly. However, her mind was no longer able to focus on her own story. The curious personality of an Aries baby made her listen to the best listener, Cohiren, but her ears were not listening to her, listening to the curses that were still clear through the glass.
She started to become less serious, and her tone was hesitant and paused. Suddenly!
"This is too much!" Her words were completely irrelevant. The loud bang of her palm slamming on the glass table shocked Lei Congwen back to her senses. It also shocked Coxilun, who was listening attentively.
"Even if you can't pay the rent, there's no need to scold people like pigs and dogs, right? Don't you think so?"
Lei Congwen's mouth was wide open. When she saw wisps of white smoke rising from Liang Yongqian's head, she quickly pushed Gao Xilun's hand that was placed on the glass table. "I advise you to go over and sit beside her to block her, lest she does something that the three of us will regret…"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Yongqian stood up with a swoosh and casually put on her scarf, looking like a warrior ready to go to war. "I can't listen to this anymore!"
"Hey!" Lei Congwen, who was sitting on the inner side, stretched out her hand to grab her scarf. However, Liang Yongqian's movements were extremely fast and she rushed out in an instant.
When she heard the clear sound of the glass door bell being pulled open, she could not help but turn her head and stare at Cohiren reproachfully. "Didn't I tell you to go over and stop her?”
"She's too fast! Who knew that she would suddenly rush out?”
Lei Congwen held her head with both hands and sighed. "I shouldn't blame you. After all, you're a person who maintains a high degree of elegance no matter what happens. It should be my fault. I was too careless. I clearly knew that she had an unfair personality, but I didn't stop her in time.”
"What do we do now?"
Liang Yongqian's indignant roar could be heard clearly through the glass.
"Fortunately, we didn't wear uniforms today.”
The strange look on her face made Coxilun feel terrified. "Don't tell me you're?"
"Let's go. We'll take this opportunity to vent the anger our guests usually give us.”
Money was undoubtedly the most useful thing in the world.
Of course, Lei Congwen didn't know why Liang Yongqian decided to end this war of words. Was it because she didn't sleep enough last night? After she roared at the lady boss, who had her hair combed high and was dressed in a black gauze dress with a silver sequined thin shirt, making her look like she was in her fifties, the lady boss suddenly said,"If you have the ability, then pay the money for him, stinky girl! Who do you think you are? How dare you come to this old lady and behave atrociously. If you want to uphold justice, wait until you pay the money. Justice in this world will always be on the side of money…"
The lady boss's tone suddenly softened because she saw Liang Yongqian taking out a stack of brand new 1,000 yuan bills from her branded bag and counting them one by one.
"Money, right?" She looked up at the old sign with contempt." It says 380 yuan for rest and 800 yuan for accommodation. If you say he stayed for six days, I'll give you 1,000 yuan a day. But after deducting the money you spent on smashing his basin, dirtying his toothbrush, and ruining his clothes, 5,000 yuan should be enough for you to shut your stinky mouth, right?”
She pressed the money hard against the lady boss's overly exposed chest, then looked at the pair of fat hands with satisfaction. Despite being surprised, she did not forget to catch the stack of banknotes quickly, in case they were blown away by the wind blowing in from the alley.
The lady boss seemed to be unable to accept this outcome for a moment. She held the money and looked at her strangely.
"What's wrong? Didn't you stand here and curse for half an hour just for a few notes? Don't tell me you don't love money. I'll be very disappointed in you.”
"You!" The lady boss's face, which was covered in layers of white powder, turned red with anger. She really wanted to say something, but this girl was right. The reason why she had abandoned her image and stood there cursing was for money. Now that the other party had paid up, she was in no position to say anything. She turned her target back to the man who had not said a word, her voice still high and piercing.
"You're lucky today, foreigner. A lady with so much money that she doesn't know what to do is willing to pay for you. But please, if you want to freeload next time, please find another place. We're doing a small business. We can't afford to entertain guests like you!”After she finished speaking with exaggerated movements, she walked into the small hotel with dark-colored glass as the door in her three-inch high heels.
"What's so great about it? It's just a small hostel…"
Lei Congwen hurriedly pulled Liang Yongqian's arm to prevent her from rushing into the other party's house in a moment of agitation and forcing herself to compete with the other party.
"You're really too much. It's fine if you scold him for a few words, but why did you take out the money?”She felt sorry that the war of words had ended before she could join in.
"If not, can you make that crazy woman shut up?”she said angrily.
"Alright, alright. No matter what, it's good that the matter has been resolved. Let's go back to the restaurant. The food we ordered might have been delivered.”When the three girls were about to return to the dining room, a deep and slightly hoarse voice called out to them. It was pure and elegant English.
"Please wait a moment."
Liang Yongqian turned her head almost immediately when she heard the voice. She stared at the male lead who had been ignored since the beginning without blinking. The foreigner who the lady boss kept calling a stinky foreigner, a dead foreigner, and a shameless foreigner.
He was dressed in a black suit and black trousers. Although his shirt was pulled out and looked sloppy, and the beard on his face was a little haggard from not shaving for many days, she still recognized him from his blue eyes that were not covered by the messy hair on his forehead.
Even though they met again in such an awkward situation, his blue eyes were still shining with his unique cold arrogance, like a noble looking down on mortals.
We meet again. When he was at his wit's end, this straightforward girl once again rescued him from despair, although she might not be happy to see the person she saved was him.
Could this be the arrangement of God?
" You…" She pointed at him and opened her mouth. Suddenly, she felt that the scarf around her neck was too tight, making it difficult for her to breathe. She suddenly turned to her two good friends. "You two! Why didn't you stop me?"
After the two of them were stunned by the sudden question, Lei Congwen explained,""I asked Herron to hold you back. It was you…What are you doing? Why did he suddenly regret his righteous actions? This isn't like you. You usually get proud for days and nights just because you do a little good deed. What's wrong today?”
" I think it's because the man she saved happened to be the tall, handsome man with mysterious and melancholic blue eyes, who was as elegant as a royal member, whom she brought back from Hamshi?”'It can't be wrong,' thought Cohiron, who was always calm. While they were still in the chaos of the war of words, she had already observed the tall and thin man from head to toe.
"Who asked you to describe him like that? I didn't…" she shouted, blushing.
"Tall and handsome? Blue eyes? A member of the royal family? Did I miss something that I should have heard?”Lei Congwen blinked and asked the two of them.
"You haven't heard a lot." She gritted her teeth and walked towards Fieser at the same time. "If I had known it was you, I would never have jumped out to help you. Because you left without saying goodbye that day, I was very angry.”
" I know..." Faisel looked at her, and the frustration and frustration he had felt for the past few days were suddenly swept away.
It was a very strange feeling. He thought that he would never want to see this girl again, but when he saw her bravely push through the crowd, with one hand on her waist and the other pointing directly at the boss's nose, she said," Everyone has difficulties.”The roar of the boss stunned the onlookers and the arrogant lady boss. Suddenly, waves of warmth surged from the bottom of his cold heart, making him choke. If it wasn't for his pride, he would have hugged her and cried bitterly.
This girl was like Don Quijote, her face shining with a bright light of justice. Not only did she help him vent his anger, but she also made him feel disappointed in human nature. His heart, which had fallen to the bottom, rose again, giving him the courage to pull himself together.
"How is it? Who was that handsome guy? Yongqian, shouldn't you go back to the restaurant and explain it to me again?”Lei Congwen sounded very interested in the man with the pair of deadly blue eyes.
It couldn't be helped. Anyone could tell that the man standing proudly in front of her was obviously a handsome foreigner with her favorite blue eyes. She had always dreamed of marrying a foreigner, which was the main reason why she had tried her best to become a flight attendant.
"Were you listening to me just now?”She squinted at Lei Congwen. "I told you if you didn't listen carefully, don't even think about asking me to add anything later.”
"What? Was there? Did you say that? When did you say that?"
"Don't you think it's too late to play dumb now?”
"Uh…"
"Forget it!" She shook her head." Let's ask Hillen to repeat it to you. I should be glad that it was Hillen who was listening attentively just now. Unlike a certain someone who liked to add in his own imagination and guesses, adding fuel to the fire.”
"Eh, you shouldn't be referring to me, right?”
"Did I say it was you?"
"Yongqian, do you want to go home and rest?”Coxilun was still the best. He got to the point in an instant.
"Yes, my head is hurting so much. Don't worry, you can still go to the restaurant and enjoy your meal. The day after tomorrow, you can bring the bill to me and ask for payment. I'm going home to sleep now. If anyone wants to keep me, they're undoubtedly going against a bear that's woken up from hibernation.”
Lei Congwen hid behind Gao Xilun in fear.
"And you." She pointed at Faisel." I'm glad that we're so fated, but I really hope that this fate won't happen a third time.”
She turned around and left, while Faisel followed her without hesitation. Lei Congwen reached out and pulled him back.
" Hey, you can't leave. You have to…" The last sentence disappeared under a sharp and cold gaze.
Gao Xilun hurriedly pulled Lei Congwen's hand away and shook his head at her.
A sense of oppression followed behind her like a shadow, but Liang Yongqian did not want to bother with him. No matter why he was following her closely, she was not interested in knowing. What she needed the most now was a bed and a warm blanket. This damn weather that was suddenly warm and cold made her feel cold from the soles of her feet. She rubbed her arms and hid her hands under her armpits before quickly walking to the nearest bus stop.
Faisel stubbornly followed behind her while maintaining a certain distance. No matter what, he didn't want to lose this figure. After meeting her this time, he realized that he really wanted to see her again.
"Why are you following me?" Finally, she couldn't help but turn around and point at him. The bus stop was right in front of her. She didn't want him to follow her and find out where she lived. This meant trouble, and she hated trouble the most.
Faisel held her hand and frowned.""Don't point at others 'noses for no reason. It's not good.”
Her eyes widened as if she had seen a monster.
"What do you mean I'm always…Hey, let go of my hand, or people will think we're a couple quarreling on the street.”
Faisel was stunned for a moment, then laughed at the reason why she suddenly lowered her voice. "Do you mind?"
"What?"
Seeing that she was focused on pulling her hand away from his, he held it even tighter. In order to avoid falling into the situation she had described, and because there were indeed people who had their eyes on them, Faisel put down his hand that was raised in front of his chest. It looked like they were holding hands.
"I mean, do you mind if others treat us as a couple?”
"Of course I mind. I don't have a boyfriend yet! Hey, are you going to let go of me or not?”
"Unless you agree." He turned his head and looked into her eyes meaningfully.
"Promise what? To put it bluntly, it was you who owed me a favor, not me who owed you a favor. But forget it, I'm not the kind of person who would ask for favors.”Her struggle gradually weakened because his palm was very warm.
"Don't call me 'hell'." "I have a name," he said haughtily."My name is Faisel?" Ardusa, I allow you to call me by my name, Faisel.”
"Allow? Do you always talk to people in this tone? It sounds like a king!" She couldn't help but chuckle.
Faisel frowned. He asked her to take seriously the fact that he had allowed her to call him by his name.
"I am a country…Are you going to agree or not?”
"What should I agree to? You haven't even said it yet!"
" That's…" Damn it! Why was it so hard to say? Wasn't he just asking her to let him follow her? This was not something that would disgrace his status, especially now that he was penniless and living in a foreign land. He had to learn to let go of his former noble status. Give him a few more seconds to prepare, and he'll speak naturally.
"Say it, you're stuttering. If you don't say it, let go of me. I want to go home and sleep!”
Feeling the hand in his palm begin to struggle again, he suddenly felt that he had no choice but to say it.
"Let me follow you!" He finally said it, his heart thumping wildly. It took him a lot of effort to make his face expressionless, and his eyes nervously shifted to the distance.
"Follow…follow me?" She took two seconds to digest these words and then shouted,"What do you mean? You're not planning to cling to me, are you? Let me tell you, I'll accept the medical fees and the rent just now. Who taught me to be a busybody? But if you think that I'm that easy to deal with, then you're wrong!”
"I don't want to accept other people's kindness for nothing.”he said haughtily, straightening his back.
"Like I said, I'm not the kind of person who wants others to repay me for a small favor.”
"That's you, but I'm a person who will definitely take revenge.”He looked at her seriously. "Let me be your butler! You don't have to pay me any salary. I can help you wash clothes and cook. One month should be enough to cover the money you paid for me, right?”
Help her wash clothes and cook? This was a very touching suggestion. To be honest, she had a house that was more than 30 square meters, but she was born lazy. She hated doing housework the most, but she was good at making a mess at home. She had once seriously considered getting a foreign maid to help her, but she had only thought about it and never really put it into action. If he was really willing to do what he said…
"You can't refuse because I have to do it. You can see that I'm a very proud person. I don't want to leave Taiwan with regrets in the future.”It was a terrible reason, he admitted, and though he was saying it in a haughty manner, his palms were actually sweating nervously.
"You shouldn't be thinking of this reason to stay by my side temporarily because you don't have money, right?”She narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a guessing gaze.
"What do you think this is?" He took out something from the hidden pocket of his suit and showed it to her.
She had to cover her mouth to stop herself from screaming.
What a huge ruby! There were also twelve top-notch diamonds set around it, and the brilliance was dazzling.
Her family owned a jewelry store. Since she was young, she had been influenced by her parents 'teachings. Her understanding of this thing had reached the level of an expert. The ruby in front of her was at least forty carats. This kind of expensive jewelry could only be seen in books that specialized in gemstones. Now that it had appeared in front of her, how could she not be surprised? Even if his eyes were blinded by the dazzling light, he still had to look carefully.
" This... this..." She pointed at the thing in his hand, dumbfounded like a fool.
Faisel retracted his palm and put the rare ruby into the pocket of his suit. This was the only thing he had brought with him when he fled from the palace in a hurry. It was also the symbol of his supreme power in Hamshi.
"Do you understand?" " It's not that I don't have money," he said in a serious tone." This gem is enough to buy a five-star hotel, but I can't sell it. This thing means a lot to me."”
She gulped and nodded to show her trust. These things would be of great significance to anyone. Just the few diamonds alone were already amazing. Each of them had the strength of more than a million dollars.
This was too strange and exaggerated. First, he booked the entire first-class cabin of the plane and flew to Taiwan in luxury. Then, he parted ways with her at the hospital penniless. Then, he appeared in front of her as a poor boy who had no money to pay his rent. Now, he had actually transformed into a millionaire with a net worth of tens of millions of dollars. What could be more dramatic and intense than this?
"Um…please tell me, why is it so bizarre?”It should be appropriate to say that it was bizarre, right?
"Not for now." He vetoed it very straightforwardly.
"You shouldn't be…a terrorist, right?”
His slightly trembling shoulders showed his surprise at her opinion. He then said unhappily,"A terrorist? Is that how you see me?"
"I don't know how to look at you either. I'm also very confused. Everything about you is mysterious.”
"In the near future, you will know who I am. So, did you agree?"
"What? What matter?" She was at a loss because her mind was still shining with the brilliance of the gemstone.
" You weren't listening at all. What we were discussing just now…" Did she forget why he took out the gemstone for her to see?
"Oh, the butler, right?" "I'll agree to it for the sake of that thing!" she said with a smile. But you have to promise me one thing.”
"What is it?"
She leaned closer to him." Can you let me watch it when we get home?" I've never seen anything so valuable.”
He looked at her carefully and made sure that she was just admiring him before nodding."Sure, but I have to be present. This is a very valuable item.”
"No problem, no problem." She almost smiled until her eyes narrowed. It was a gemstone worth millions of dollars. The thought of holding it in her palm and looking at it made her heart bubble with joy.
"But I have another request."
"Speak!"
"Um…can you take me to dinner first? I haven't eaten for three days." He said shyly.
