0756 Who Am I and Where Am I?
"Oh, I think I saw Fez, oh my God, she's so pretty. Just a short distance forward, Hill saw a small famous actress.
"That's nothing, they also need to eat, and if they eat too much, they will have diarrhea. Eric laughed.
"Eric... You're disgusting. Hill waved his hand in front of him in feigned disgust.
"Haha, come on, our destination has arrived. Seeing the storefront not far away, Erica quickened her pace.
Looking up, when Hill saw the destination he was talking about, there was a little more strangeness in his eyes, and his steps stopped.
"Hey, what's wrong?" asked Eric in surprise.
"Erik, are you going to Cartier?" asked Ciel.
"Yes, I want to give you a gift. Eric said with a smile.
"No, I don't know... Forget it, we don't have to go after those, maybe we can go there and have a look. Hill rolled his gaze and pointed to the roadside stall.
"Honey, look at the ones that don't want money. Eric stepped forward and put his arm around her shoulders and led her into the store with a smile.
"Welcome. "A warm welcome sounded, but it came and went as fast as it came.
After seeing that the person who came was a black boy and an ordinary white girl, with a childish face, the sales person who came forward smiled disdainfully and turned his head away.
"Eric. Hill pulled him with an embarrassed look on his face, wanting to leave now.
It's so embarrassing, and they can't afford anything.
"Don't worry. Eric smiled unmindingly, took her hand and walked to the counter, pointed to the star pendant inside, and said, "I want to see this." β
"Sir, it sells for 4999. The salesman said with a look of disapproval.
The necklace was inspired by the stars on the Walk of Fame, and was Cartier's sales star, in what came to be said, 'influencer products.' β
Marry has been working here for a long time, and unlike her colleagues, she never discriminates against the poor.
If she could, she hoped that the boy in front of her could afford to buy the gift he wanted, which would allow him to reap a beautiful love.
But, I have to say that this necklace is really expensive.
4999 US dollars, most families do not have so much savings, it is enough to buy a nice apartment, who will use it to buy a necklace.
"Marry, what are you talking to them, be careful not to stain those necklaces, they're expensive. The salesman, who had left earlier, leaned not far away and said disdainfully.
"I know what I'm doing. Marry glanced at the other party dissatisfied.
"I want to see it. Eric still looked calm.
As soon as he walked into the storefront, the security guard quietly moved behind him and stared at him with his spare eyes.
The salesmen were all laughing and laughing, and they didn't have to ask to know what they were discussing, 'Look, another who doesn't think he's supposed to be here.' β
There was also a strong male staff member, quietly standing in the doorway, able to ensure that he would never be able to escape if he wanted to grab something.
He knew exactly what those actions meant, but he was no longer the impulsive little guy he once was.
He learned a lot from Li Zitao and Mary.
He can't change the colored gaze of others, but he can choose to be himself.
"Erik, it's not about proving something to anyone, it's about doing the right thing. Mary's words are still imprinted in his heart today.
So, throughout the whole time, Eric maintained a calm and elegant attitude, and did not look like a young child at all.
"Okay, but please be careful. Seeing Eric's composure and confidence, Marry thought about it and took out the star necklace.
"Oh, look at what she's doing, she's going to get into trouble someday. The previous salesman said in a weird way.
Marry ignored the other party's rudeness, but pushed the necklace in front of Hill and smiled, "It's really beautiful, I think every girl wants one, but sometimes love itself is the best, right?"
Hearing Marry's words, she had been acting cautiously and embarrassed, and Ciel looked at her gratefully, nodded, "Yes, ma'am, I think so too." β
Eric didn't speak, but he saw his girlfriend's joy as she looked at the necklace.
"Wrap it up. The simple answer made everyone stunned.
Eric took out the checkbook to himself, signed it, and handed it to the other party, "Thank you for your service, but I think you have to hurry, otherwise you won't be able to prove it's true." β
Eric shook the check self-deprecatingly, and if he was a white man, it would be easy to verify the check.
But if you put it on him, the other party may go directly to the bank to cash it out.
Eric is used to this, this is the real world.
"Okay, okay. Marry walked towards the store with a check, and soon a middle-aged man in a tuxedo walked out.
The other party quickly stepped forward and smiled: "Eric, I'm sorry, my staff is a little rude. β
He had thought Eric was familiar, but after seeing the signature on the check, he was sure that he was not mistaken.
"Are you?" said Eric, who he thought was familiar, but forgot where he had seen them.
"We've met at the banquet, Manor. The other man pointed in Beverly's direction.
"Sorry sir, I was young then. Eric smiled apologetically.
"Haha, yes, you were so tall then, glad you were back. The middle-aged man gave him a hug very warmly, which made the atmosphere of the scene even more weird.
What happened?
Hill was even more confused, and when he walked out of the storefront, he didn't figure out what was going on.
Who am I, where am I, what have I done?
"Eric, you, heβ" Hill pointed at him, and then at the gentleman who was still waving at the door of the store, with countless questions in his mind.
"He was a friend of my adoptive parents, I didn't expect him to remember. Eric said innocently, he still wasn't sure who the other party was.
Brown, a popular name, has no impression at all.
"Erik?" Just as the two were talking, a car suddenly pulled up to the side of the road, a surprised voice came, and a familiar face came into view.
"Why are you here, aren't you going home?" Li Zitao said with a gentle smile in the car.
"I'll pick out the gifts, are Aiden and Mason okay?" Eric's hand was caught by his girlfriend and turned blue, making him look at Li Zitao helplessly.
"Very well, hey girl, don't be so nervous, you can call me Charlie. Li Zitao stretched out his hand and smiled, relieving Eric of the siege.
"You, hello sir, I am, yes, Ciel. Ciel stumbled.
Five cars that look like small houses, dressed luxuriously, with beautiful watches, champagne and a refrigerator in them.
There are also those men in suits who seem to be ruthless killers, all of which show that the other party is not simple, and Hill's brain is completely confused.
"Who the hell is Eric, is that his real name, what does he do, oh yes, who can come and save me. Hill's heart roared.
"I also need to pick a suitable gift, together?" Seeing Ciel's nervousness, Li Zitao thought it might be better to let her stay alone.
