Jayden handed her the apple in his hand, “Nutrient solution? Is that what you’re doing to yourself at such a young age?”
Dolly had to take the apple he handed her: “Jayden, thank you for remembering to come here to see me when I was sick and for bringing me what I needed, to be honest, I’ve been in your debt all these years, you don’t have to do this to me in the future, I don’t want to be in debt to someone forever.”
Jayden pretended to be angry: “What do you always take me for?”
“Good friends.” Dolly replied.
“And beyond that?”
“Well … then you are still the great benefactor who saved my life.” Dolly replied seriously.
Jayden sighed, “So now … am I someone else?”
“Of course it doesn’t count!” Dolly denied in a hurry.
“I’m finally relieved, Dolly, and I allow that you can owe me a lifetime of favors.” Jayden lifted a smile at her.
“… Jayden, I really don’t know what to say, by the way, I’ll invite you to dinner in a couple of days, even if it’s a repayment to you … “She hadn’t finished her sentence, Jayden The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the website. No, it’s too simple, no technical content at all. The actual fact that we’ve known each other for so many years, you don’t seem to have eaten my cooking, so why don’t you come and give me a show this time, it’s much more reasonable than inviting me out to eat.”
Dolly was a little hesitant: “This …”
Jayden has already started to help her neatly pack up a bed of papers and drafts: “Don’t this and that, you just promised to repay me, you can’t keep your word.”
“That’s fine …” Dolly responded and took a bite of the apple that Jayden had just handed over, and I don’t know where it came from, it was like it was unripe, bitter and sour, hard to eat and wanted to bring tears to your eyes.
Jayden is still a man who knows his place, and instead of taking Dolly to his house, he chose to go to Dolly’s rented place. once Dolly heard that, she scratched her head in embarrassment: “sorry ah Jayden, I hardly cook, so I don’t even have rice there, let alone the ingredients. ”
Jayden also did not show the hopelessness she imagined, but smiled cheerfully: “That’s fine, but as compensation, you have to come with me to the food market.”
“Huh??” Before Dolly could respond, Jayden tugged on her sleeve and walked away.
The smell of fresh fruits and vegetables and all kinds of meat permeates the market, and most of the people who come here are kind-faced old people with their grandchildren, or middle-aged couples haggling with vendors here, but strange combinations like Dolly and Jayden are very noticeable.
“Boss, how much is this sea oyster per catty?”
“Sold for nine dollars a pound.”
“No, it’s too expensive, I’ll buy more for seven dollars.”
“Okay seven for seven.”
Dolly touched Jayden with her elbow: “It’s only two dollars, I didn’t think you’d bargain.”
Jayden mentioned a bag of packed sea oysters to her: “It’s frugality, and people who are rich again should know how to live.”
Next Jayden took her to buy some fresh melons and other nutritious fruits and vegetables. Jayden’s bargaining skills are really a great one, Dolly said in her heart, “Of course, there are few quick bosses, but when he opens his mouth, he can always convince people to agree to his bargaining demands.
“Jayden, do you get your groceries here often?” Dolly asked.
“Well … is not really, usually busy with research at Ravenwood University, usually lunch and dinner are settled in the cafeteria, and rarely have time to cook for themselves.”
Dolly carrying the bag hand tightened: “Although I can also cook, but always repeatedly do those few dishes, the previous and Brayden did not quarrel and conflict, usually eat the nanny cooked rice and vegetables. This time buy so many ingredients, I’m really worried that I will not be able to eat all …”
Jayden laughed: “Yes, the purpose of buying more is to let you try to cook for one more person, you can’t abandon your health for work, people live, everything is 0, only health is 1, no 1, behind more 0 is all for nothing.”
Dolly also followed his example and went up to bargain with others, but did not see a pair of eyes not far away had already fixed on her and Jayden, and Jayden, at the moment she turned around, met the owner of that gaze, Jayden’s gaze, became cunning and sharp.
I didn’t realize I was at the door, Dolly unscrewed the doorknob and greeted Jayden as he came in, the house hadn’t been cleaned for some days and a lot of dust had accumulated.
People who are well cultivated like Jayden generally can’t help but wave their hands and fan the dampness in the air.
Dolly hurriedly distracted him, “I’ll go wipe down the stove.”
“Buzz.”
Jayden’s phone, which was set to vibrate mode in his pocket, rang. Seeing that Dolly was not there, he took out his phone and unlocked the screen.
Text message from S.
The incomparably brief five words that caught my eye: “Photo has been sent.”
Kirkland Group.
“Mr. Kirkland this is the letter of cooperation sent by Sail Limited, please read it.”
“Good.” Brayden took a stack of papers wrapped in kraft paper, his heart could not help but feel strange, the assistant has always been a very good talker, how this time to send him documents used the word ‘send’, which company came to send documents need to use the ‘send’ it?
He loosened the thread wrapped around the clasp of the kraft paper bag a few turns and carefully pulled the manuscript out of it. In addition to a few large collaborative words on the cover, there was an email address written on every piece of paper inside.
Brayden also do not know what happened to him, in the usual way he would have thought that is which look at his displeased employees in deliberately and he prank, but at this moment, the neat row of e-mail addresses, like a magical magic, is tempting him to open.
He typed that address in three clicks on his laptop, and an email was displayed there, the first one with the word ‘Welcome’ written in English. He clicked the down arrow with some trembling.
‘Exploration’ is obviously a very mischievous technique, but Brayden feels as if there is something that he would know immediately.
Then he scrolled down and it said “truth”. His heart, too, was jolted for a moment with the popping of this word.
The ‘truth’, followed by each email is just a well taken photo of what looks like the daily life of a man and a woman, they chat, take care of each other, the man is very careful to peel apples for the woman, and even more ‘intimate’ photos.
It was like a real couple, shopping in the street, buying vegetables and haggling with the vendors.
