Chapter 220: Protection
Because of her understanding of him, Yue'er knew that she couldn't resist him, so she could only silently take the velvet box. She broke free from Chris's arms, took her bag, and carefully placed the box in the compartment, thinking that she would put it in the safe as soon as she got back. The engagement ring meant so much to Chris that she really didn't know what to do with him.
Chris smiled with satisfaction when he saw her accept it, patted the place next to him again, and motioned for Yue'er to come back.
Thinking of the "punishment" that she had just pretended not to see, this time Yue'er obediently walked up to him and sat beside him obediently.
"Good." Chris doted on her soft twing, and his body temperature was transmitted to Yue'er's heart like that...
"What do you want to eat? I'll order takeout. Chris picked up the phone, and it was indeed time for dinner.
"I can do it all." Where did Yue'er have the heart to figure out what she wanted to eat, her mind was now like a mess of paste.
“OK。” Chris didn't bother, he picked up the phone and dialed the number.
“…… Well, if you want two copies, don't put pickles (pickles), please take the trouble to make a good note. Cheese (cheese) to provolone. Well, the address is right. When it comes to ring the doorbell I will open the gate of the yard, thank you. Chris finished ordering, put down the phone, and looked at the moon.
"This Mexican food is very well done, the chef is Mexican, he used to own a restaurant on Long Island, and he has two Michelin stars."
In fact, Yue'er didn't worry about whether the dishes were good or not. She has an indescribable strange feeling in her heart at the moment, turning over the river and the sea...
She has been allergic to cucumbers since she was a child, and she can't touch any fresh cucumbers or pickled cucumbers, otherwise she will have itchy rashes on her body. However, many North American cuisines like to put cucumbers, and even if they are not included in the dish, many side dishes are indispensable in salads. So every time she ordered, she had to remind her that there could be no cucumbers.
At the same time, Americans are known for their love of cheese, and when you walk into any big supermarket, the cheese section is simply dazzling. To be honest, living in the United States, if you don't understand the uses, tastes and differences of various types of cheese, it's really a big deal. In terms of size, there are large and small ones; In terms of feel, there are soft and hard; In terms of use, there are dry food, cooking, and desserts; In terms of origin, there are European (Italy, Germany, France) and North America.
In short, cheese is really a science. Probably because when I was a child, I always used provolone cheese in school dishes, so many Milton Academy graduates loved this one. This cheese has a long history of making in Italy, Greece, the Volga region, Turkey, Syria and the Mediterranean. There are many varieties of raw milk used, mostly cow's milk, goat's milk, goat's milk, and buffalo milk.
Yue'er was not surprised that he remembered all this, she just suddenly realized that although ten years have passed, she and Chris are still like going back to when they were children, everything is still full of tacit understanding, and they don't even need to give a look to know what the other party wants.
Time can change many things, but there are also many things that may never change, such as her favorite is Mexican food, for example, she will always choose provolone cheese, such as her body is allergic to cucumbers, and for example, he always knows what she wants, and is always attentive just right...
Chris looked at the time, and estimated that there would be about twenty or thirty minutes before the food was delivered. Even when ordering food, his left hand has never been released, and now he has hung up the phone and returned to silence, but there is no strangeness between the two, and there is an indescribable feeling that makes people's hearts itch.
"Okay, now tell me what's going on? Why do you need a personal bodyguard? Chris desperately needed an answer to this question. As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw that the man in black had followed him all the way here, and now he was probably guarding the gate.
Yue'er knew his character, and she knew that it was pointless to conceal it, so she told him about the case she had taken.
In fact, because of the recent escalation of the case, those radical feminist organizations have put pressure on her many times. The law firm had received a courier for her, and when it was opened, it was a bloody dead mouse; Her assistant also received a voice change phone call, threatening her with the curse of God if she "aided in the abuse."
Others will hold banners and demonstrate quietly not far from the law firm. As a result, Nate has increased the number of attorneys, and this case is now a hot topic in society.
It's no wonder that Leon is not at ease, these radical social groups are indeed crazy at times, and they are not afraid of ten thousand.
Chris listened to her description, frowned, and came to a conclusion: "From today onwards, you will live here." If you need something, I'll drive you back and get it later. ”
"I don't want it." Yue'er firmly refused. He's too domineering, isn't he? Did you announce your cohabitation less than two hours after you appeared? Even if it's because you want to protect her, it's too fast...
"Don't be willful." Chris's tone was unmistakable, he really didn't expect such a thing, and his heart tugged at the thought that there might be someone around him who might be bad for her.
"I'm not willful, and I'm not alone. With so many documents at home, it is impossible to pack them away for a while. After saying this, she regretted it a little. The point is not that the information documents are not collected, the point is that it is not appropriate for the two of them to live together!
But as soon as she answered, it was as if the problem was in the information that couldn't be sorted out... Forget it, the result is the same anyway, she can't just move here to live with him... This is also an exaggeration.
“… Well, that makes sense. Chris could probably imagine what a lawyer's study would look like, and he didn't want to cause trouble to Yue'er, "I'll clean up briefly in a while, and I'll stay there tonight." ”
"Stay...? Live in the past? "Yue'er is nervous, and she can't say anything, she heard it right, right? Where to stay?
"Well, aren't you a two-bedroom apartment?" Chris knew her address before, and naturally knew the approximate floor plan, but he also guessed that she was a single woman and a lawyer, and from what she had just described, it was estimated that the other room had been used as a study.
"It's a two-bedroom apartment, yes, but I only have one bedroom and one bed." It's still not right, that's not the point, the barrister who has always been sharp and artificial really feels that his brain is down...
"Yue'er, it's not like we haven't slept before." Chris's words were extremely ambiguous, and this sleep was not the other's sleep. They did sleep together when they were in love, and... Thinking of the intimacy of the past, Yue'er's face turned red like a peach. Except for the fact that they did not break through the last line of defense, everything that should have happened between them.
But now it's different, they used to be lovers, and now? She couldn't sort out this question for a while. She needed time and distance, and he was like gummy, clinging to her...
"That was before... We are now... Square peg. Yue'er felt that her refusal was very powerless, but she didn't know why she couldn't say anything, probably because she had seen too much of his injuries today, and she didn't want to be the executioner who hurt him again.
"Don't worry, I'll prove to you that we'll always be the right fit." Chris rubbed her hair, her tone full of confidence, when the doorbell rang, presumably the takeaway arrived. Chris got up and went downstairs, Yue'er felt that this just right interruption really relieved her, and while Chris went downstairs to pick up the food, her little head was racing.
Yue'er felt that she had to seize this rare gap and quickly sort out the current situation. Otherwise, when he came back, she would be teased by him again and couldn't think.
After a while, Chris walked upstairs with a large bag of food. He placed the bag on the coffee table in front of him and took the boxes of food out. After everything was tiled, he took out the cutlery from the kitchen and handed it to Yue'er.
"You eat first, I'll go in and pack my luggage." Sure enough, he didn't give Yue'er a chance to refuse, so he got up and went to pack his luggage. It wasn't that hard, after all, he had just returned from Switzerland and his suitcase hadn't even had time to open, so he only needed to make a slight adjustment.
But just when it came to sleeping, Chris felt a little tired all of a sudden. There is a six-hour time difference between Zurich and New York, and because he has to visit his brother as soon as he comes back, he doesn't close his eyes on the plane, so he is really sleepy at this time.
He quickly packed his luggage, pushed it into the living room, and silently placed it in the corner, as if he was ready to leave at any time.
Yue'er was speechless when she looked at him ready to go... He hadn't talked to himself like that before, uh, no, he always seemed to talk to himself. The breakup back then was the best example, he didn't give her a choice at all, he just made a unilateral decision by himself, and now it is...
"I really don't need to, those people don't dare to really hurt me. They just scare me. Yue'er thought about it for a long time and didn't think of any particularly good reason to refuse him, "And I really only have one bed." "That's straightforward enough.
"As I said, I don't mind sleeping with you. We've slept a long time ago, more than once. "Chris is not only as muscular as a copper wall, but his skin is almost the same thick, and he really doesn't blush and his heart doesn't beat when he says this, and it feels very natural. And if he "slept" and let outsiders hear it, it would definitely be misunderstood.
"I mind! Well, even if we used to... I've slept..."Yue'er reluctantly accepted the setting, "It's not the same time it used to be... It's been so long..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she was picked up by Princess Chris.
Yue'er was so frightened that she instinctively hugged his neck because of this too sudden action.
"What are you going to do? Put me down. Her body was tense, and it was impossible for her to break free from his strong embrace.
"I just came back from Switzerland and happened to be a little sleepy. You sleep with me for a while, just in time to help you review. After saying that, he took the little woman in his arms and walked into the bedroom, and gently put her into the soft bed.
Yue'er instinctively turned her back, Chris was not reluctant, he also followed into the bed, and hugged her from behind, the feeling of warm nephrite in her arms was so wonderful, the two bodies were close together, Yue'er seemed to be able to feel his violent heartbeat.
"Sleep with me." He's really tired, not just today...
