In My Desperate Time

Chapter 133 The Man You Came With Last Time Looks Familiar

I take him to a small restaurant that I used to visit when I was in high school. Frances Louis also brought me here last time, and after eating here once, I really miss the delicious food of this place.

It is a rare chance today, so of course I have to come here to eat.

“Hi, Jane, did you change a new foreign boyfriend?”

As soon as the boss sees me, he greets me cheerfully.

“Change?”

The corners of my mouth twitch a little.

Do I look like a flirtatious woman who would change boyfriends frequently? The boss is really good at making up stories.

“No, the last one isn’t my boyfriend. This one isn't either, he is just a friend.”

I smiled awkwardly at the boss and sit with Donny.

On Donny's face, there is no discomfort and he seem to be adapting well to the environment here.

“I can't really understand the menu.” After flipping through the menu, Donny hands it to me and says, “You're a regular customer here, so please recommend some food.”

“I usually get the assorted fried rice, and the double-cooked pork over rice is also s very good choice. Many people would order that. I never ate double-cooked pork over rice in high school, because I have to keep in shape, but every time I see people ordering it, the smell makes me want to drool.”

“Okay, then order it as you say.”

I nod and tell the boss what we want and he immediately go to cook.

Soon, two plates with super-sized portions of food are served.

Donny's eyes light up when he sees the hot pork over rice. He picks up a spoon and starts to eat.

“Yummy. It's so delicious.” His eyes light up and he exclaims as he eats.

Looks like I have brought him to the right place.

He eats a big plate of rice, and the plate is so clean that it looks like it has been licked, which looks so funny.

I also eat a lot, devouring most of the fried rice.

At the checkout, Donny insists to pay the bill. I look at him helplessly and say, “I promised to repay you, no matter how poor I am, I can still afford this meal.”

Then Donny stops arguing with me, and lets me pay the bill after a sigh.

I know he is a gentleman, so that’s why he feels so uncomfortable to let a lady treat him a meal. But I would always feel like I owe him too much if I don’t do something for him. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

And I'm a person who hates to be indebted to others.

When the boss gives me changes, he suddenly whispers to me, “I suddenly feel that the man you came with last time looks a little familiar.”

“I guess you have seen him many times on the news, after all, he's a big shot.” I don’t take it seriously and say to the boss.

The boss scratches his head and seems to agree with me.

After leaving the diner, Donny takes me to the mall inside Wanda Plaza.

In fact, I haven't been to such a place for a long time. Before I got married, I would come here once every two or three months after I got paid and bought one or two pieces of clothes to treat myself. But ever since I got married, Andrew Malan never gave me the chance to come to this kind of place.

In his words, a skirt would cost hundreds of dollars, which is a waste of money. Of course, it is a waste of money for him. He only earns a thousand dollars a month. So, after I got married, none of my clothes costs more than fifty dollars.

I'm not a vain person, but if I can't buy things I like with the money I earn, marriage seems too suffocating.

Luckily, I have already got away from that cage.

“I’ll take you to DS to see if you can get inspiration and work out more designs that meet their requirements. I heard from Steven that you need money.”

Donny says to me.

Yeah.

I need money.

I didn't expect that the reason Donny asked me to go shopping with him is actually to help me out.

The staff of DS know Donny. After all, a lot of this brand’s stuff is designed by him.

A group of female fans gather around and ask for his autograph.

I wander around the store, looking at each item carefully.

When I reach the corner, I come face-to-face with a man.
