Chapter Twenty-Three: The Hormones of Walking
CHAPTER XXIII
"What do you mean by me? How could I really leave you alone with your itinerary, Gwen. ”
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I'll discuss it with you in advance next time."
This time, Peter managed to smooth the little wildcat's fur.
Gwen's mood was immediately messed up by Peter, and he didn't know whether to be angry or happy.
This bastard must have been watching himself joke from the beginning!
But at the same time, she was nervous again.
So, what exactly does Peter mean?
Her completely unpredictable attitude made her suffer again and again.
It seems to work, but it doesn't seem to work.
"Where are we going now?" It was Gwen's turn to ask.
"Wait for someone."
"Huh? Anyone else at night? Gwen frowned.
"She's coming."
She!? Gwen was instantly vigilant, when did Peter know another woman!
If I remember correctly, Peter has more contact with girls on weekdays, and there are only two of them.
One is her, the other is Spider-Woman, and it's her!
And now, who else?
After a while, Gwen saw a black sedan parked on the side of the road, and a lady in a professional black suit stepped out of it, and greeted the two:
"Excuse me, is that Mr. Parker?"
"Yes." Peter nodded.
Ephesia stretched out her hand to Peter,
"Hello, my name is Ephesia, and I am Mr. Osborne's secretary, and I will be in charge of the two of you tonight."
Gwen was in a trance for a moment, only to realize that Mr. Osborne in Ephesia's mouth was Harry.
She realized that she seemed to have misunderstood something, and lowered her head in embarrassment.
She felt that she was really hopeless, how could she become so stupid.
Of course, she also had a stomach full of doubts, but in front of outsiders, Gwen just behaved generously and decently and didn't say much.
At Ephesia's invitation, the two got into the car and went to a haute couture dress shop.
"Because of the time, we didn't have time to order it, so we can only give it a try, Mr. Parker." Ephesia apologized.
"It's okay, just come according to your arrangement." Peter said.
Ephesia went to deal with the clerk, and until this point, the two of them had no room to be alone.
The last second was still generous and decent, the ladylike Gwen stepped along, pulled Peter to the corner quickly, and a large series of questions came out of her mouth like cannonballs,
"Peter, what's going on?"
"Why Harry? When did you get so good with him!? I don't even know ......."
She almost cornered Peter,
"I feel like you're hiding a lot from me...... And Ms. Ephesia, she's so good-looking, do you like to be older than you? ”
"Wait, wait, one by one, Gwen...... Wait a minute, what's the matter with Ephesia? Why would I like something bigger than me. ”
"Oh...... Sorry, I said leaky... No, I'm just, just a little excited, you know, everything just ......"
"I understand, I understand. How so...... You know about Harry, because his father, he's been having a hard time lately, and I've taken advantage of it. ”
"Take advantage of the weakness and enter the !?"
"Hey! Just kidding, remember the last time we ran into him in the aisle? Because we helped him, he was always grateful. ”
"Oh, Peter, what you just said was evil."
"Heh, and then Harry approached me the other day, for some personal reasons, hoping that I could introduce Spider-Woman, and I asked him for a little help."
"Wait, why is there still a Spider-Woman thing? Why did it turn out that it was just me dating you, but all of a sudden, so many people broke in! ”
"It doesn't matter, Gwen."
This is important! Gwen glared at Peter with puffed cheeks, and Peter smiled and said, "What I'm more interested in now is our date." ”
"About... Appointment! Gwen's momentum that he had managed to gather was suddenly washed away,
"Well, that's not what I meant, you just heard me wrong."
"Gwen," Peter said, pinching her face, "we watched a love movie and had a Valentine's Afternoon Tea, which you arranged for me, and I thought you were hinting at me something." ”
"I didn't ...... Wait, damn it! Peter, you know everything! ”
"Of course, I'm not a fool, you're so straight."
"Ahhhh
Gwen's brain was short-circuited, and if it was a comic, there must have been steam coming out of her head at this time.
She covered her blushing face with ten fingers, and her watery cool eyes peeked out from between her fingers, and she scolded:
"You bastard!"
"Uh... Two," Ephesia looked at the two with some embarrassment, coming back from the clerk's side,
"Well, we can try on the dress."
Peter helped Gwen take the hand that covered her face, and she was so angry now, so angry that she didn't even dare to look at it.
Peter patted her on the head, "Alright, let's try on the dress first, I'm looking forward to it." ”
Gwen felt her mind stop spinning completely, and like a doll, she borrowed the prepared dress and followed the clerk to the fitting room.
"Your girlfriend is so cute." Ephesia praised.
Peter just glanced at her, his face calm, "Thank you." ”
In the fitting room,
Gwen looked at herself in the mirror for a moment, and finally came back to her senses.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself...... There is no calm at all.
So, what did Peter mean just now!?
This bastard knows everything, and instead of stopping me, he keeps teasing me, which is too hateful!
I thought you were a good person...... Wait, now is not the time to care about that.
So, Peter, that's ...... No objections?
Gwen felt her heart pounding.
After a long period of suffering from gains and losses, the answer suddenly fell in front of her so abruptly, and the big rise after the big fall made her feel a little dizzy, as if she was stunned by happiness.
No...... He didn't say yes either, and Gwen let out a sigh of relief, trying to calm herself down.
She looked at the delicate dress in her hand, and a smile of unyielding came out of the corner of her mouth,
"Wait, I'm going to leave you speechless!"
"What a surprise, Mr. Parker." Ephesia looked at Peter who came out of the suit after changing,
"I can't see that you're in such good shape." She said with some emotion.
I thought that the girls were good enough, but I didn't expect the boys to be even more eye-catching after changing into a well-fitting suit.
As you can imagine, if you wear two less clothes, it must be the hormones of walking.
"It's nothing, is Harry okay?" Peter said.
Ephesia frowned. She only knew that Peter and Harry were classmates, and the specific relationship was not clear, so she could only consider:
"Mr. Osborne is having a bit of a hard time now, but I'm sure he'll be able to solve it soon."
"Looks like something is wrong."
"Well, Mr. Parker......"
"Don't care, I'm just asking casually, I hope he doesn't mess around too much."
Ephisia could not understand the meaning of Peter's words, but said, "I will bring your words to Mr. Osborne." ”
While the two were talking, Gwen finally changed into her dress and walked out of the fitting room.
