“Yeah, do all the male gods like young women nowadays?”
Listening to their bullheaded conversation, I couldn’t help but laugh, “You guys think too much, Edward helped me, it’s an exchange of equivalence, he has something he needs with me, it’s just an exchange of equivalence.”
“Quid pro quo?” Jannings froze, somewhat puzzled, “What’s worth so much? He can exchange five lives for it?”
“It’s a box my grandmother left me when she was leaving, it’s a dragon and phoenix box, I have one in my hand, the other one seems to have been auctioned away at a high price, he wants to find this box, as for the value, I don’t know what it is yet.” Edward’s identity I am still a little uncertain, his surname is Mu, he should be the White family people.
But if he was a member of the White family, why did he go to the trouble of holding that auction in Newton Town to auction off the sandalwood box that he originally had in his hand?
But if not, what did he want the box for?
Jannings nodded with her chin in her pestle, “It’s true that rich people invest their thoughts and energy in things we don’t think are necessary.”
After a pause, she looked at me and said, “But thank you, when we return to China, I will treat you to a good meal, you are a friend, I made it.”
I smiled lightly, Jenny looked at me and spoke, “I’ll have my wedding in October, this time, I don’t know what it will be like when I go back, but if my wedding is held normally, then you must come to my wedding.”
Fanny responded, “Yeah, we’ve all been through so much, we must be good in the future, I have an idea, Clara, Jannings, Jenny, have you ever thought about starting your own company?”
We all froze for a moment, a little surprised, Jenny looked at her and said, “You don’t want to drag us into the business, do you?”
Fanny nodded repeatedly and laughed, “I thought about it when I was in the glass room, if I can go back alive this time, I will definitely drag you guys to start a company, and then we will help each other for the rest of our lives.”
Jenny frowned, “You are also too greedy, this just dragged you out of the fire, you think how to tie us up.”
Fanny smiled and said, “Actually, I was thinking that if we do something together and go through this life and death, we can work together to move forward in the future, to meet is fate, to meet with such a fate is destiny, you see we are from different places, if we do not get together after returning to the country, there is no contact, we will go further and further apart. I really don’t want to miss out with you guys like this.”
Jannings laughs, “You do not say so fleshly, where will be so exaggerated, in the future more contact will be good.”
“Fanny, what kind of company do you want to start?” I opened my mouth and said, “Have you thought about where to locate the company? What exactly do you want to do?”
Fanny seriously thought for a while and said, “I have not decided on these, now there is only a general, but the location I have chosen, I set in City A, City A is not considered a first-class city, but the city construction and development are good, and adjacent to Southeast Asia, the climate and temperature are extremely suitable for living.”
“I have a suggestion!” Jannings spoke, “Why not Fanny you get a guest house or teahouse, we Clariana can get together over the year, but also can go to live for a while.”
Jenny nodded, “That’s a good idea!”
A few people you sentence I sentence, but chatted for a while, I raised my eyes a few times to look at the room on the second floor.
After thinking about it, I still went upstairs.
Knocking on Cherry’s door, she took a long time to open it, and when she saw it was me, she paused slightly and said, “Something?”
“Let’s talk?”
She frowned and took a step back, letting me into the room.
She is a student of Buddhism, seems to be a bit obsessed, only just returned from the line of life and death, she has found a way to get a statue of Buddha in the room again, began to worship.
Sitting on the sofa, I saw her sitting cross-legged in front of the Buddha statue, her hands folded, and her mouth chanting all the Buddhist sutras.
“What do you want to talk about?” She spoke.
I looked at her and spoke, “Do you believe he will bless you?”
She looked at me sideways and said very seriously, “If he hadn’t blessed me, I wouldn’t be here talking to you right now.”
I was dumbfounded for a moment and couldn’t help but feel that she had gone off the deep end. After a pause, she said, “I heard earlier that your family is over in City A. Fanny is planning to go back and open a store there, have you ever thought of going together?”
“No!” She opened her mouth, and her tone was always a bit of a stranger.
I nodded and thought about it, “What happened that day, I really didn’t mean it, I didn’t want to hurt any of you any more than anyone else, I didn’t think Danny would think of hurting you in that way, I …”
“That’s enough!” She spoke out, interrupting me and looking at me, somewhat grimly, “Clara, do you think you’re quite noble? Always so high and mighty, has anyone ever said you’re fake?”
I froze and looked at her.
The fact that you are obviously a cold and selfish person, but you have to portray yourself as a generous and kind woman, you have a unique background, there are men who will pay for your beauty, there are people who can save your life, these are just things that you have got along the way, ask yourself, when have you ever When have you personally gotten anything by yourself? What have you gotten by your own efforts, no right?”
I was so disgusted by her that I couldn’t say a word, looking at her open mouth, speechless for a while.
She became more and more interested, “You just like to pretend to be noble, pretend to be noble, in fact, you hate me more than they do, right, otherwise how would you be silent when Danny chose me, because in your opinion, this kind of harm, if that person is me, you will have less self-blame inside, after all, you originally did not like me, right? ”
I was silent, and the terrible thing is, I actually felt that she was right.
The inferiority of human nature, I can no longer distinguish, in her words, how much is my true thoughts, many times, go to feel that what she said is right.
It’s true that I wanted to save them, but it’s also true that I didn’t use all my strength, it was all just natural, I didn’t try very hard.
Even though I know that Dennis is probably still looking for me in Zuy right now, I am still at peace with being here.
“What? Nothing more to say?” She sneered, looking at me with extra sarcasm.
I got up, said no more, and left.
Not many people can face their dirty hearts, and I can’t either.
…
The next day!
The sunlight spilled through the glass and onto the bed in the bedroom, and round and round it went, and it was already August.
It’s almost autumn.
