Chapter 52: Returning Home
"I want a lamb chop, a steak of emerald steak, a honey-glazed chicken wing, a pasta, and an assorted salad. That's right. He promised to close the recipe in his hand and hand it back to the waiter on the side, "Another Italian vegetable soup." ”
After promising to finish ordering, he saw the two ladies sitting opposite him with their mouths slightly open, looking at him with inexplicable expressions.
"What's wrong?" Xu Promise smiled and said, "Fascinated by my handsome appearance? ”
Kim Taeyeon and Tiffany hadn't spoken yet, but the really handsome waiter on the side bowed slightly, "This gentleman, the meal you ordered is enough for the three of you to enjoy together." If you consume too much food, it will have a bad effect on your body. ”
This is quite level, but if it is translated into layman's terms, it is, "Have you finished eating so much?" "The quality of working in a high-end restaurant is high.
"No problem." Xu Promise nodded and looked at the two ladies across from him, "What do you want to eat?" You're welcome, I'm in for a treat. ”
Of course, the promise is not pretending to be big, nor is it that he has not eaten Western food. It's just that his physical fitness has greatly improved, so his demand for food is very strong.
"I want a business package."
"A vegetable salad."
Kim Taeyeon turned her head and glared at Tiffany, "It's still active, you want to be scolded for eating so much?" ”
"I'm really hungry." Tiffany, who started to sell cuteness, reached out and stroked Kim Taeyeon's beautiful clothes, "This dress is so beautiful." ”
"Ah~~~" Kim Taeyeon raised her head slightly and rolled her eyes, looking helpless.
Kim Taeyeon knows her best friend very well, and she is completely American. When he sees his friend's beautiful clothes, he will directly open his mouth to ask for it, and he has made Sika stare at him for this kind of thing. That's right, Tiffany was originally an American.
Although I didn't say it directly this time, maybe it was because I was a little embarrassed to sit across from him. If she was in the dorm room now, maybe Tiffany would have been picking up her clothes.
At this time, Tiffany's mood was even more complicated.
Although the experience of being in that deserted factory a few hours ago brought her great fear, there was an inexplicable excitement and excitement! It's just a real movie plot. Originally, I thought that Promise was just a scumbag who wanted to have both people and money. But I didn't expect that the promise not only had a mysterious secret like an agent, but also a big money!
The dress Kim Taeyeon was wearing and the shoes she had seen in magazines, it was the latest Chanel model of the season, it had only been released for a few days, and it was a limited edition!
Tiffany had taken a fancy to it as early as when it was first released, but the living expenses were not enough for the time being, so she could only be greedy. But now she finds that the man who has been good with her (self-confessed) bought this beautiful dress for her best friend, and her mood is definitely not what it seems.
At this moment, in this high-end restaurant, his girlfriend is dressed like a swan, but the clothes he is wearing are still dusty. Tiffany looked at Promise with an inexplicable hint of resentment in her eyes.
Xu Promise had no idea that the two women opposite were so active in their hearts at this time. He was checking the balance on his bank card. When he saw the eight-digit balance information that began with two before the decimal point and the currency unit $, he nodded with satisfaction. The days of poverty are finally gone!
Promise, who was in a good mood, began to think about how to keep the two women sitting across from him tight-lipped about what had happened this morning. Because he had promised Gambino that he would settle the matter. Let any information about this game leak out though. It's not that he is worried about himself, but he doesn't want the two of them to get into trouble.
Looking at the promise of sweeping away all the plates of food in front of him, I smelled the tempting aroma of food between my mouth and nose. Then he looked down at the red, green, and green vegetables on the plate in front of him. Kim Taeyeon couldn't help but cover her forehead.
"I really shouldn't have gone out yesterday."
It doesn't take long to eat, and when it's over, he promises to send Kim Taeyeon and Tiffany out of the hotel.
"There are some things I don't need to say, do they?" Xu Promise's eyes were slightly cold, "Participating in this kind of thing will not end well." If you shouldn't say it, don't know it, understand? ”
"Uh-huh, understood!" Tiffany grabbed Kim Taeyeon's arm with both hands and nodded vigorously. For her, who is just indulging in the colorful gorgeous life and fashion, today's events are not to be said.
"Got it." In contrast, Kim Taeyeon is a little dissatisfied, although she looks petite, weak and cute and needs to be protected, but in fact she is a very bold person. The strong captain is not just a casual talk. Although she didn't think about calling the police or anything, Kim Taeyeon was dissatisfied with the promise, "It's not because of you that you're unlucky?" ”
After hearing Kim Tae-yeon's whispering, Promise smiled and stretched out his hand to the clothes she was wearing, "Well, I've already expressed my apologies." That's the end of it, OK? ”
"What about mine?!" After hearing the promise, Tiffany on the side quit, and she had not received the promise of apology. Such beautiful clothes!
“”
“”――
"Pani, don't pull any more, it's going to break." When I got back to the dormitory, there was no one else in the dormitory because it was afternoon. looked at Tiffany, who followed her all the way into the room, her face full of envy and dissatisfaction. Kim Taeyeon helplessly pointed to her hand holding her clothes.
"But it's really beautiful." As an American, Tiffany has always been unabashed about what she loves.
"It's not the right size!" Kim Tae-yeon, who felt like she was about to collapse, shouted, "You can't wear my size!" ”
Tiffany, who sat on the edge of the bed with an aggrieved expression, lowered her head slightly and stirred her fingers, looking like she was about to cry.
Kim Taeyeon, who felt that her whole person was about to go crazy, had to comfort her best friend who was bigger than herself, "Okay, it was just that you were asleep at the time, so I didn't buy it for you." If you still have the chance, he will definitely make it up to you. ”
After a pause, Kim Taeyeon suddenly looked at Tiffany with an ambiguous smile on her face, "You are someone who has had close contact with him, and whatever you say will give you benefits as compensation." ”
"Ah!!h ――
Incheon International Airport, VIP Lounge.
Carrying the Korean ginseng he had just bought, he promised to find a place and then sit down to rest and wait for the plane to return home.
"Huh?" After glancing at the wall screen not far away, the corners of his mouth quietly curled, revealing an inexplicable smile, "It turned out to be singing." ”
On a wall-mounted screen in the departure hall, nine beautiful girls in pencil pants are singing and dancing on the screen. And Kim Taeyeon, who seems delicate but very courageous, and Tiffany, who has a silly and sweet image after the second meeting, are among them.
Three hours later, Xu Yu arrived at the Imperial Capital International Airport.
"There's nothing to be nostalgic about." I booked a suite at a well-known hotel, went to the restaurant and returned to my room after dinner. Xu Promise stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window with a wine glass in his hand, looking through the shiny glass at the golden city in the distance.
Raising his hand to look at the quaint ring, a dazzling look burst into the promise eyes.
When he came to this city, which was admired by countless people, he struggled for several years but achieved nothing, and promised to give up, after all, every day is boring and boring to run for life. But this magical ring gave him a whole new world! Life will never be the same again!
Xu is still very grateful to this city, because in this city he met his own destiny and got the opportunity to change his fate. This is an opportunity that countless people can only envy but cannot encounter. But now he promised to leave the city.
After all, this is the imperial capital, and the control in all aspects is extremely strict. Promise is not sure when the magic he possesses will be inadvertently revealed. And once these things are exposed to the state apparatus, he may promise that he will eventually be able to escape, but he himself does not jump out of the stone. He also has parents and relatives, and these relatives are in danger.
Without enough capacity to keep himself and his loved ones safe, Promise decided to leave the heavily managed city. As for where he will go in the end, he has not yet thought about it, but he will definitely not go to the deep mountains and old forests to farm at home, waiting for the end of the mission again and again until his ability becomes stronger.
And if you really go to farm and climb the technology tree like that, you may be suffocated to death. He likes to be lively by nature, and he can't live that kind of hermit-like life. (The actual reason is that this article is urban, not idyllic.) )
The next morning, he promised to leave the city and return to his hometown to visit his parents.
In the past, during the New Year's holidays, he promised to take advantage of the opportunity to go home for a few days. Although a large part of the already meager salary will be paid to the Ministry of Railways, especially after the opening of the high-speed railway. But the promise really did it, and he often went home to see it.
After returning home, he promised that he had been favored by a large foreign company because of his outstanding ability, and that he could go to work in a foreign company as long as he had completed various procedures. Now at home is a temporary rest. And because I have done a lot of big business before, I have received a lot of bonuses.
I renovated my parents' old house, and all kinds of food were prepared. It's not that they promise not to buy a new house, but that their parents have lived here for many years and don't want to leave their neighbors. In my mother's words, if you go to live in a high-rise building, you can't even find anyone to play mahjong!
The promise of a rare time to relax is very comfortable waiting for the next mission. Until one day an MMS message was sent to his phone.
It was a picture of a woman with a frightened face being blindfolded and tied to a chair!
And the woman, he knew.
