Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 121
After putting their luggage into the room, they started to work.
They had meetings with the local company all day. There was a business dinner arranged for them and everyone should attend. Wendy couldn't refuse either. After dinner, some of them wanted to go to a karaoke bar.
Thinking of Felix and Daniel were still in the hotel, she felt sorry for them and didn't want to go to the KTV.
Charlie squinted at her and said, "Do you hurry to go back?"
"Wendy, you can't leave!" As Charlie said, the supervisor immediately added, "Don't be such a killjoy. It's not too late. Let's go together!"
Wendy had no choice but to follow them.
The four of them came from Ice city together with some from the local company, the private room was a little crowded.
Wendy was holding a drink and sitting in the crowd, listening to one song after another. She would be sleepy when she heard a lyrical one, while she would be cheered up when it was a rock and roll one.
She took a sip to keep her fresh. The supervisor rushed to her, picked up the beer glass, and drank it all. He put the microphone into her hand and said, "Wendy, hurry up. My throat is burning. It's your turn to sing!"
"Supervisor, I..." Wendy shook her head.
Before she could refuse, the supervisor had already said, "Stop pretending! I've listened to you at the department dinner last time. I know you can sing opera. I've selected one for you! It's your turn after this song!"
"..." Wendy wanted to cry.
The song finished soon and someone asked, "Whose turn next?"
Then Wendy reluctantly stood up with the microphone in her hand.
As the prelude sounded, she sang with it, "In order to save my love Lee, I left my home. I didn't expect that I would come first in the highest imperial examination. I was in a red robe and put on a black gauze cap, which was so strange to me! I've gone to the feast for successful candidates of the imperial examination, and I've also ridden a horse passing by the streets in the capital..."
When she finished the last sentence, Wendy loosened her hand.
Under the colorful lights, the sweat in her palm shined brightly.
When she was singing the opera, she always felt that there were two eyes staring at her, which almost burned two holes in her back. She wore high heels and almost lost her balance.
Just as last time, she heard applause when she turned around.
Wendy felt a little uneasy. She put the microphone on the table, ran back to the sofa, picked up her drink, and continued to drink.
The people sitting next to her said to her, "You can sing so well. Two more songs later please!"
"Yes, come on!" Another one echoed immediately.
Wendy licked her lips and agreed.
As soon as she finished drinking and put down the empty glass, Charlie, who sat opposite her silently, suddenly stood up and stubbed out the cigarette in his hand. He knocked on his watch with his index finger and said, "It's getting late. We still have meetings tomorrow."
His words meant that they should leave now.
Since the leader had said that, people looked at each other in dismay. Even if some of them were unhappy, no one dared to refute him. They immediately packed up their belongings and left. When they returned to the hotel, the supervisor said that his pillow was uncomfortable and he needed to ask the receptionist to change one for him. Wendy nodded and went to the elevator alone. There was a shadow gradually covering her from behind when she was waiting for the elevator.
Wendy looked back and saw Charlie standing there with one hand in his pocket. He was standing against the light and the outline of his face became more outstanding.
She greeted, "Mr. Hogg." Charlie did not pay attention to her. His lips tightened into a line, and his eyes were calm.
Wendy couldn't help pursing her lips.
When they were in the KTV, he seemed to be unhappy. When he left with anger, almost everyone held their breath. At this moment, he seemed to be angrier. "Ding!"
The elevator door slowly opened.
Wendy waited for him to enter and then walked in silently.
There were only two of them. The elevator kept ascending and didn't stop in the middle.
Wendy lowered her head and stared at her feet. She slightly clenched her hands. When she was in a closed small space with him, she would feel frightened. She was afraid that he would suddenly press on her...
However, until the elevator arrived, Charlie still stood in the same place.
Seeing that he didn't move, Wendy walked out first, then some footsteps sounded behind her.
She arrived at the room soon. She took out the room card and opened the door. When she stepped in, a calm male voice sounded behind her, "You promised that you would only sing for me." "..." Wendy held her breath.
He indeed asked her to promise that when she was still with him... She turned around and met his deep eyes in an instant.
The light in the corridor was dim. In his deep black eyes, there was a strong dissatisfaction and complaint. He was like a little boy who was unhappy with her lie...
Wendy closed the door quickly and didn't dare to look at him anymore.
Wendy didn't sleep very well last night.
In her dream, she had been singing over and over again, and then there was an overbearing voice echoed in her ears.
"You can only sing for me in the future."
"Did you hear that?"
"Got it..."
She would leave the hotel at 8:30 this morning. At seven o'clock, Felix called her to go downstairs for breakfast. When she opened the door, Felix and Daniel had been waiting outside. When the little boy saw her, he immediately reached out his hand. After being held by her, he shyly scratched her head.
"Can you end it earlier today?" Felix asked her when closing the door.
"I'm not sure. Still have lots of work to do today..." Wendy shook her head. According to yesterday's experience, she was not sure about that.
"It doesn't matter. I'll wait for you to come back to celebrate tonight." Felix showed understanding and smiled.
"I'm waiting for you too!" The little boy echoed.
Wendy was relaxed a lot, and she said with a smile, "Okay."
While they were talking, the door of the next room suddenly opened. Charlie came out in a white shirt and a suit.
Wendy was surprised. He should live in the opposite room.
When did he change to her next door? So, she lived in the middle. On the left was Charlie, and on the right was Felix and Daniel...
After breakfast, they set off to the local company to continue meeting.
The meeting ended much earlier than expected. There was no dinner or karaoke arranged for them, so Wendy went straight back to the hotel.
The supervisor and Charlie were walking in the front, Wendy and Farr followed them. After entering the elevator, the supervisor talked with Charlie about the project plan. Wendy stood aside and listened to them. Her phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated. She took it out and thought it should be a message from Felix, but it was from Charlie.
Wendy looked up and saw that he was still listening to the supervisor, and there were no changes in his eyes. He was holding a silver phone in his drooping hand.
She clenched her fingers and started to read the message, I'll be waiting for you at the Northern Mountain Park at 8 o'clock tonight."
