Chapter 408
The bus stopped when it passed a high school.
Several high school girl students in the back row quickly got out of the bus and looked at Patrick shyly at the last minute, feeling that their heartbeat quickened.
This was the school where Christina used to study.
"Do you want to take a walk here?" She asked Patrick, who was sitting next to her.
Patrick didn't say anything.
In fact, he was okay with that.
Christina, on the other hand, looked at the outside excitedly.
She could still recognize the familiar gate, the serious guard , and the old locust tree opposite the school.
"Today is a weekday.The guards will not allow us to get in...Fine, forget it." she said to herself.
And even if they could sneak in to the school.
It was likely that Patrick would be paid attention.
The bus closed the door and began to move slowly again.
Although her aunt asked her to take Patrick out for a walk, Christina had no destination herself.
They sat on the bus and passed all the stops.
They just watched the scenery outside the window along the way.
It's really boring to kill time by taking a bus.
Both of them were quiet, but they found it was valuable to get along with each other in such a simple way.
Finally, the bus arrived at its destination.
They had no choice but to get off.
That place was quite secluded.They just rambled there to kill time..
After walking for about ten minutes, Christina saw an open community in front of her.
This community was a famous old community.
It was so vast that harbored more than 20000 residents.
"It's quite lively there.Usually, a lot of old people and children come here to hang out, and there are a lot of snack stalls."
As she spoke, she walked straight ahead.
Patrick just followed her without saying anything.
"Patrick, do you want to go anywhere?"
As she walked, she asked the man beside her.
In fact, Christina also knew that she wouldn't get any answer, because Pareick didn’t have any idea.He just followed her steps and walked for a while.
There were small shops selling daily necessities and clothes on both sides.
She stopped outside the window of a clothing store.
Patrick stood beside her and followed her sight.He thought she wanted to get in.
But Christina seemed to take no interest in the clothes inside and continued to walk forward.
Christina suddenly said, "Those clothes are not suitable for you."
The men's clothes sold by these small shops were a little outdated, and the quality wasn't that good.
Patrick froze for a few seconds.He didn't expect that she wanted to buy clothes for him.
Getting closer, there were many temporary snack stalls on the left side of the sidewalk.
"Are you thirsty? Do you want any drink?"
Christina strode towards a drinks stall with great interest.
"Lady, what milk tea would you like?"
The waitress greeted her.
Milk tea was indeed girls' favorite drink.
Christina replied subconsciously, "A cup of mango milk tea..."
But then she paused and changed her words.
"No, I want a cup of iced taro milk tea"
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Patrick had already stood beside Christina.
The waitress looked at this handsome man in front of her and asked him shyly, "Sir, what do you want..." Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Do you have mineral water? A bottle of mineral water, please"
Christina said quickly.She knew that Patrick didn't like milk tea.
"We have no mineral water.We only sell milk tea"
The girl looked a little embarrassed.
She pointed at the distance enthusiastically and nervously.
"If you want to buy mineral water, there's a convenience store."
"l want the same as hers."
Patrick suddenly spoke in a faint voice.
Patrick looked really outstanding.
Even if he spoke in a normal tone, he could make people feel his dignity.
When the waitress heard, she immediately said, "Okay:"
Christina changed a flavour for him.
"A cup of coffee milk tea with less sugar and less ice, please."
The waitress hesitated for a moment and felt that she had been in a dilemma.
"Listen to her."
Finally, Patrick said in a flat tone.
"Okay."
The girl blushed and immediately went to make milk tea.
"You don't like sweet drinks.This coffee flavour may be more suitable for you."
Christina pointed at Patrick's milk tea and said, then she took out her cell phone to pay.
Patrick stood quietly and watched her operation.
Feeling his curiosity, Christina took a step closer to him and taught him how to pay online.
At the same time, she smiled cheerfully.
"Charles sent a lot of red envelopes in Whatsapp.I snatched a lot...Do you have any money in your Whatsapp? I'll transfer some to you."
Patrick seldom use Whatsapp.
Usually, he only take credit cards and cash when he went out.He certainly didn't know how to pay online.
Christina taught him how to transfer and take money.
Then, she transferred 3,000 dollars to his account.
"If you think that's not enough, you can bind your own bank card and charge it directly."
She pointed at the screen and told him.
Patrick looked at the screen and his sight stopped for her bright face which reflected on the screen.She was teaching him carefully.
Her thin lips curved in an imperceptible angle.
"Thank you for coming."
The waitress said with a smile as she saw them off.
She breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she had met two figures.
Christina felt tired as she had walked for a long time.She sat down on a chair under the tree.She looked around to see people coming and going in the park, while drinking her milk tea.
Patrick sat next to her naturally.He was not thirsty but took a sip of his milk tea.
It was still very sweet.He didn't like any sugar..
In fact, it couldn't said that she didn't know him at all.
At least she would remember his words.
A refreshing breeze is blowing gently, making people feel sleepy, Although it was noon, the sky was covered with a thick clouds, so that the sunlight was cut.
The weather was very comfortable.
"Patrick, why do you like me?" She asked suddenly.
He failed to make a quick reaction.
A dull expression appeared on Patrick's calm face.
At the same time, Christina looked straight at him with her clear and bright eyes.
"I don't know." His voice was a little hoarse.
Christina felt a little embarrassed and turned her head away slightly.
In fact, she just asked on impulse.
The wind was so comfortable that it brought people countless thoughts.
She remembered that, he used to be a teaching assistant for her, she also thought of the old locust tree outside the school, and he had a pocket watch.
"Patrick, do you want a puppy?" She suddenly asked him again.
Being too excited, she turned her head to get closer to him.
Her breath was intertwined with his.
They were so close that they could touch each other with the tip of the noses.
Patrick was not used to her sudden approach.
He knew very well that this girl always had a lot of strange ideas and was always energetic.
"There are puppies selling there.Let's go over and take a look..""
Without waiting for his answer, Christina broke into a trot with him.
In the center of the community park, a middle-aged man were selling three small pet dogs.
Christina walked closer and saw these fluffy white puppies clearly.
She got excited, "Grandpa said that you had a Labrador when you were a child.After it died, you didn't have any animal..."
She turned to look at him.
"Patrick, do you want? I can buy one for you." She said so naturally.
The man who sold the dog heard that, then laughed.
He looked at Patrick and teased him, "This beautiful girl likes you so much.She wants to spend money for you.You must buy one home, or she will feel unhappy."
She would like to dote on him too.Today, Patrick was always in a daze.He stared blankly at the girl beside him for a while.His voice came from his chest.
"No, thanks." He refused in a soft tone.
Christina didn't mean to do anything at the beginning.
She just thought that she had enough money to buy a puppy for him.
Now she felt a little embarrassed after listening to Patrick's gentle refusal.
Then, it rained suddenly.
The rain was not that heavy but was constant, which quickly wet people's clothes.
The uncle who sold the dog also quickly took his puppy to shelter from the rain.
The pedestrians in the park also stayed under the roofs.
Christina reacted quickly.
Her expression became a little bit anxious, then she took Patrick's hand and ran together with him.
The umbrella in the convenience store sold out quickly.
When it was her turn to pay, there was only a smallest umbrella left.
"We can't call a taxi without walking out of this community"
As Christina spoke, she opened the umbrella.It seemed that the rain would last for a long time.
She thought they might go back now.
Then them walked together step by step.
The drizzle blew, making her body felt a little cold as she walked in the rain.
Patrick was taller than her, so he wanted to take the umbrella.
But she held it hard and didn't want to give it to him.
After walking for a while, Patrick found that her shoulders were wet.
She tilted the umbrella on his side, while she herself was wet.
Just then, Christina raised her head, as the drizzle wet her clothes.
She said, "You have an injury on the back.You can't get wet""
At that moment, Patrick stared at her with all his eyes.
