The rainy season in the Magic City was very long, and after the rainy season, the temperature began to drop sharply. Vana had already begun to prepare to learn jewelry related knowledge, so she registered for a study near the World Trade Mall.
Recently, Vana had been very worried about her study and shooting case with Terence, so she moved back to her rental house. After knowing that, Simon also moved to the narrow double bed with her. Because Vana often grabbed the quilt at night, it directly caused Simon to catch a cold.
Vana poured a glass of water and handed the pills she bought to Simon, who was leaning against the bed and reading documents. Simon put down the things in his hands and found that Vana was not going to bed.
Vana looked at her watch nervously, thinking that the medicine she bought for Simon had the effect of sleeping well. As things went well, Simon would fall asleep within half an hour, and Vana hoped that she could catch up with that important thing.
However, when Vana was urging Simon to take the medicine absentmindedly, Simon put down the glass and pills, and then grabbed Vana’s arm. Vana screamed, “What… What are you doing?” But as soon as she finished speaking, her whole body had fallen on the legs of Simon.
Simon stretched out his hand to Vana’s neck and gently pushed away her hair from her chest. He said with doubt, “it’s time to sleep. Why do you change your travelling clothes?”
“No… No, it’s so cold. I just changed my thick clothes to sleep so that I will not grab the quilt with you and in case you catch a cold again.”
Simon frowned and let go of Vana. He touched her back and said in a soft voice, “the air-conditioner installer should be able to come tomorrow, and then it won’t be like this.”
Vana immediately jumped off Simon’s legs, took the water and medicine on the bedside table, and said, “yes, so you’d better take medicine today, so that you can recover from the cold and I won’t worry about you, okay?”
Simon didn’t say anything and looked at the expression on Vana’s face. Vana felt that she was about to be exposed for a moment. But soon, Simon stretched out his head, and Vana was stunned. Then Simon said, “aren’t you going to feed me medicine?”
Vana immediately came to her senses, and then fed the medicine to Simon in peace. After that, she considerately put away the documents and sat beside the bed to lull Simon to sleep.
Simon was about to fall asleep, but he suddenly opened his eyes wide and said to Vana, “aren’t you going to sleep yet?”
Vana paused for a moment and then said immediately with a smile, “I want to make some ginger soup for you after you fall asleep and put it on the bedside, so that you can get up and drink it if you are thirsty at midnight. I heard that people who catch a cold are easily thirsty. This is what I should do as a wife, isn’t it?”
Obviously, these words worked. Without a few more coaxing words, Simon slowly fell asleep. Vana checked the time as soon as she saw that Simon was asleep. It was just eight fifteen. She should be able to catch up with it.
Fortunately, this activity was held in the room. If it was still in the suburb, she would definitely not run away alone leaving Simon stay alone.
When Vana arrived at the underground entertainment square of XL Street sent by Vivian, Simon had already dialed Terence’s number on the bed.
Then, Simon sent the location of the mobile phone newly bought by Vana to Terence. After that, he couldn’t fall asleep again, so he put on a pajama and leaned against the head of the bed, continuing to read the documents on the side.
“Vana, the bonus for tonight’s competition is not too much, but the people coming out are all ruthless. Are you sure you want to take part in it?” Vivian came here with Vana tonight. She didn’t wear her usual cool motorbike uniform. The woman standing next to Vana now was a beauty in red, who made people around whistle at them.
Vana didn’t go to work recently, not to mention her full attendance bonus. Moreover, she was in urgent need of money recently, so she came to participate in the competition frequently.
“Yes, I will take part in all of the competition. Please help me find some activities recently. I have been busy at work during the day, so I can only come out to make money at night. And that day is coming. If I don’t save enough money, it will be really too late.”
Vivian smiled and said, “I really don’t know what kind of person you are going to chase who made you prepare for your anniversary. I suddenly envy him for meeting you.”
Hearing what Vivian said, Vana raised her chin and winked at her, “what’s up? Now you have figured out that you are in love with me, but who said that she is an unmarried woman? You hurt my heart before, and now you say like this. I will take it seriously, okay?”
Vivian was amused by Vana’s serious look. She immediately said, “well, don’t be kidding. I’d better tell you who will take part in the competition tonight. Look at the black figure over there. His name is Liam, known as the Devil Knight. He rode illegal cars and often killed people in the race. So you’d better avoid him, understand? That’s why I want to talk to you about him.”
Vana subconsciously glanced at Liam. When she saw his motorbike, she really thought he was a killer, because he was riding the “Dark Night Ghost”, which could reach the yardage in the day at night, and its body was very heavy, which was a good tool to grab the championship.
Yes, be careful that not to win but to grab the championship.
As Vana looked around, Vivian continued, “there are also the two brothers surrounded by the beautiful women over there, David and Duff. One of them broke a leg in the racing, which was broken in the competition with Liam I mentioned before. But he used the mechanical leg, which did not affect the race.”
Vana nodded and didn’t take it seriously. Then Vivian continued to introduce. The people she introduced were very frightening, but they were nothing compared to the killers that Vana had met in Eritrea before. The reason why Vivian asked Vana to take part in the competition was that there was a ranking system in the competition, which meant that if she won the top three, there would be corresponding bonus. According to Vivian’s understanding of Vana’s driving skill, she would not be unable to enter the top three anyway.
“Vana, the first prize is one hundred thousand dollars, the second is seventy thousand dollars, and the third is thirty thousand dollars. The reason why I said the bonus is not much is that all the people here tonight are important people. Listen to me, as long as you can get the third place, it is enough okay?”
Vana nodded subconsciously, but she was thinking that if she could get the first place, her plan would be completed a lot in advance, so that she could be a little easier in the following month.
But she didn’t want to tell Vivian about this, because she didn’t want Vivian to worry about her in advance. She could only be careful during the competition and try not to be overtaken by Liam.
