0449 Love Idiot
The long love story makes Ashley drowsy, and some of the bar owners do things that he thinks only idiots would do.
"It's normal for men in love to be more idiots than idiots. The bar owner was unimpressed with Ashley's assessment. "If you decide to be rational in love and always want more, then you will never get true love. ”
"Shit, if the price of being in love is to become an idiot, then I'd rather be single forever, there's nothing wrong with that. "Ashley got up and left, an idiot is more terrible than being single, and it was a disaster to put everything in the hands of another person.
The bar owner put his arm around his wife's shoulders. "Look, somebody is about to fall in love, I used to think so, but in the end they made a very different choice, and it's not just women who are duplicitous, but men as well. ”
Susan was lying in bed, she had to rest, she was tired from working every day, but there was one thing that kept her awake, the upright guy, the old man, the way he chased the girl was really flattering, but at least one thing was certain, the other party really wanted to do it.
A sincere man should not be treated like that, maybe he should help him, got up and closed the shop, and went to a small house in the town, where there was a grocery store, the owner was also a woman, and his husband was divorced from a woman, and he had a very difficult life with three children.
"Carolina, put down your work, I have something important to tell you. Susan pushed the door open and pulled the older widow aside. "Pack up, I'll take you to meet someone. ”
There are plenty of restaurants in town, but it's fun to talk about, and there's only one that's perfect for a date, and the three of them are seated and Susan introduces them to them.
"Mr. Ashley, a golden bachelor, a gentleman of gold. She pointed to the old man. "Miss Carolina, gentle and kind, with three children, but nevertheless, she still has quite a few suitors, and is a sought-after commodity in the town. ”
Carolina blushed, not expecting this to be the case beforehand, and secretly pinched the girl's arm. "Susan, you should have told me what to do in advance, I didn't have makeup. ”
Susan comforted the woman beside her. "It's okay, honesty can only get love, your truest appearance is what he should face. ”
Cosmetics that can make people beautiful do not represent true love, but girls enjoy it, whether rich or poor, girls are not willing to treat themselves badly when it comes to makeup.
Ashley didn't understand what the girl meant, why she would bring a woman to meet her, but he remembered the love experience of the bar owner, and the bar owner's wife used to take her best friend to be a counselor for herself, to inspect the bar owner, and Susan must have thought the same way.
It seemed that things were not completely out of nowhere, and he gentlemanly handed the menu to the two girls. "You can do whatever you want, and I'll pay for it. ”
This is the bar owner's way of falling in love, although on the surface there is a strong rejection, but inwardly he is dealing with the current situation in the same way that the bar owner used to do things.
For the sake of the task...... It's nothing to be wronged, he has to prove his innocence, it's just an illusory world, but when the mission is completed, he will leave here, and no one in the outside world will know about what happened here.
Susan handed the menu to Carolina and looked at the old man. "I've got to tell you something in advance, Carolina has three children, but I guess it's not a hindrance. ”
Ashley shrugged. "It's okay, I like kids. "Now if Susan agrees to her quest, even if Carolina has a hundred children, he can accept it.
Carolina casually ordered a few dishes. A little nervous and blushing. "Mr. Ashley, if you don't mind, may I ask you about your job?"
"Work?" Ashley must not say that he is a detective, there does not seem to be a profession in the unreal world, he has to find a suitable identity. "I'm a writer, and that's the kind of writer who wanders around, and that will help me a lot in my writing career. ”
Romantic career, Carolina prefers down-to-earth men, especially in terms of income, without enough income, romance cannot live. "So how ...... your income"
"There will be about 10,000 Caesars a year, which I know is not much, but enough to live on. Ashley said that he had cut his detective income in half.
With an annual income of 10,000 Caesars, not only is it enough to live, but it is enough to become a rich man in a small town, Carolina suddenly feels that she is a little unworthy of the man in front of her, a romantic career, a good income, sincere and straightforward, she identified the man in front of her.
"Then Mr. Ashley, you don't mind staying here. After a pause, Carolina was embarrassed and said, "I know this will affect your career, but stability is quite important for women. ”
"No problem, I don't have to think about geography when writing, my previous experience is enough for me to stabilize and continue writing. Ashley responded politely.
In the middle of the meal, Susan excused herself to leave, leaving only Ashley and Carolina, which, according to the barkeeper, was quite disrespectful to a lady, even if it was only a relative or friend of the girl.
"Well, Ashley, for the sake of the mission, continue to endure. Ashley reminded himself to keep his demeanor until the end. "Ms. Carolina, this concludes our meeting for today, and thank you for being able to have lunch with me. ”
Leaving the restaurant, Carolina asked shyly, "Mr. Ashley, can you tell me your address, if you mind, I didn't ask." ”
"Cosy hostel. Ashley just wanted to get away as quickly as possible, his target was Susan, not the mother of three, and at least for now, it was going pretty well, the girl didn't put a stick to her head.
The only hotel in the town, it is a gathering place for tourists, many tourists come from other places, and the accommodation here is not bad, not luxurious, but clean enough.
The barkeeper was right, according to his methods, it was indeed much better than his own, which was probably the only benefit of being an idiot, and it would make a woman less defensive about you.
When I didn't wake up early the next morning, I heard a knock on the door, and it was the hostess of the hotel. "Mr. Ashley, you're being looked for. ”
It must have been Susan, he succeeded with the girl, put on his clothes, shaved off his beard, and looked like a young man who went downstairs and saw a familiar woman.
"Mr. Ashley, yesterday you seemed to have a soft spot for the blueberry wine here, which I made myself and tasted better than the restaurant's. Carolina was holding a large glass bottle.
Ashley's originally excited mood immediately became quite lost, not Susan, but Carolina, who was followed by three girls, and the little girls looked at her.
"Say hello, kids. Carolina saw the stunned children and urged, "Be polite, I taught you." ”
The three girls shouted in unison, in crisp voices, "Hello, Uncle Ashley. ”
Ashley stepped forward and stroked the heads of the three girls in embarrassment, pretending to like them, as the bar owner had said, and had done this when he first saw his sweetheart's niece.
"Don't drink too much or it will make your stomach feel bad. Carolina handed the large bottle to Ashley, eagerly awaiting.
"Well, Ms. Carolina, I'm sorry, I ......," Ashley wanted to explain the situation, so that the embarrassment and misunderstanding could be resolved as soon as possible.
"It's okay, Mr. Ashley, your invitation to dinner yesterday is already the best gift you can give. Carolina blushed as she apparently misunderstood Ashley's intentions.
"I don't think you understand what I mean, I mean the person I'm pursuing is Susan, not you, your gift has to be brought back, and I rarely drink. Ashley eventually began to explain the situation.
Carolina's face became extremely embarrassed, and she froze in place, and after a moment came back to her senses, a little flustered. "No problem...... This one...... You can keep the blueberry wine, thank you for inviting me to dinner yesterday. Then she turned and quickly left.
Ashley was holding Blueberry Wine, he saw the embarrassment on the other party's face and red eyes, and felt a little embarrassed, but the matter was finally explained.
At this time, there was a pain in his leg, and a girl bit his thigh with her teeth, and the child's biting ability was not weak, and the other two girls frowned and scolded: "Damn it, stay away from our mother." ”
Enraged, Ashley reached out and grabbed the girl biting her thigh, and slapped him down, but the sound of the door stopped him.
"Mr. Ashley, please don't hurt my daughters, they didn't mean to. Carolina returned, apparently remembering her child, and she came over and grabbed the girl who had been lifted up by Ashley and snatched it back. "If you insist on hurting her, I am willing to take the punishment for her. ”
Ashley suddenly felt that the raised hand had become weak, embarrassed, and hot, what kind of power was this, why was this happening, he saw the tears on Carolina's eyelashes that had not yet been wiped off, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.
When Carolina left with the three girls, Ashley glanced around in embarrassment, whispering to the tourists who saw the scene, but he could hear it.
"What a hypocrite, he should apologize to the lady and her daughters. Someone muttered, "No matter what, you shouldn't do anything to a woman." ”
"He has disgraced the man and does not deserve to be here. "The traveller standing at the counter suggested to the owner of the hostel. "I'll make up his payment for your room. ”
The innkeeper raised his voice and said: "Mr. Ashley, your behavior is unacceptable, now please leave here, you are not welcome, we can refund all your accommodation fees." ”
Ashley was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do with the current awkward situation and left the hotel and headed to the local bar.
