"Stop crying!"
Dirk Carter suddenly shouted.
The woman clearly shivered, looking at Dirk Carter with grievance.
Dirk Carter took out a tissue and handed it to her, saying, "Wipe your tears."
She indeed took the tissue and wiped her tears.
Reluctantly said, "Why are you being so an to ?"
"You hit head-on and didn't apologize, I helped you, and you wanted to slap . Do you understand what it ans to be reasonable?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Upon hearing this, her eyes filled with tears again, just about to cry, Dirk Carter shouted, "Don't cry, if you cry again, I'll throw you out of the car, do you believe it?"
Strange enough.
It actually worked.
The woman imdiately held back her tears.
Arlo Yarbrough in the front row was wide-eyed, looking incredulous.
"Where are you going? I'll take you there!"
Dirk Carter asked.
The woman shook her head and said, "I sneaked away from ho, I have no money, and I didn't bring my ID card."
Dirk Carter was stunned.
Asked, "Those people who were looking for you just now, do you know them?"
The woman nodded and said, "They're my father's people."
"So what are you planning to do next?"
Dirk Carter asked.
The woman looked at Dirk Carter with pleading eyes.
Looking utterly helpless.
Dirk Carter let out a long breath and said, "We're going to Koryn City, do you want to co with us?"
"Mm!"
The woman nodded.
"What's your na?"
Dirk Carter asked.
The woman was about to answer, then suddenly paused and said, "Well... then just call Xiaoxue."
"Alright, Xiaoxue, listen carefully, I don't want to know who you are, nor do I want to know what you've done, none of that is my business. I can take you to Koryn City, but you must not cause trouble for . Whatever I say goes. If you won't listen, then we'll go our separate ways, is that okay?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Xiaoxue was about to speak.
Seeing Dirk Carter's fierce gaze, she nodded and said, "Alright, I promise not to make trouble."
After receiving this answer.
Dirk Carter folded his arms, leaned back in his seat, and closed his eyes to rest.
After all, it had been quite a busy day, and he was sowhat tired now.
Around six thirty.
The four arrived in Koryn City on ti.
Since Arlo Yarbrough was indeed exhausted from the journey, he was arranged to eat first.
They stopped at the entrance of a small restaurant. As soon as Dirk Carter got out of the car, Arlo Yarbrough dragged him to one side and asked, "Kid, have you taken a liking to her again?"
"What do you an?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Arlo Yarbrough glanced at Xiaoxue, who was standing by the car looking around.
He said, "Don't play dumb, this girl is quite beautiful, and she has an unusually large pair of headlights. Don't tell you have the hots for her again?"
Dirk Carter imdiately knocked him on the head, angrily saying, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Arlo Yarbrough rubbed his head and asked, "So why are you keeping a tag-along around? Also, we can't fully trust what she says. What if she's a wanted criminal or sothing, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?"
Dirk Carter chuckled and said, "Look at her denim jacket, it's from a luxury brand, starting at at least fifty to sixty thousand, and the necklace around her neck is from a high-end brand, also starting at thousands. Just look at her bracelet, watch, and those shoes on her feet, each one is expensive. Even the cap she's wearing, you couldn't buy it with three months of your salary, do you believe ?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk? Honestly, do you think this girl is a rich second generation?"
Arlo Yarbrough smacked his lips and asked.
Dirk Carter said, "I don't know if she's rich second generation, but she's definitely not simple. I'm not interested in these pampered won who look as if they haven't entered the world. I can't just let her wander the streets, can I?"
"Alright, alright, you always have your reasons. Hurry up and eat, I'm starving."
Arlo Yarbrough waved his hand and said.
Genevieve had to work tonight, so she went back to her unit first.
So, there were only three left.
Dirk Carter asked for a private room and just prepared to sit down.
Xiaoxue had a disgusted look on her face.
Mumbled, "Can we eat here? Look, there's oil stain on the table, and the chair is even wet."
"Eat if you want to, if not, just watch us eat."
Dirk Carter said.
Xiaoxue suddenly didn't dare to speak.
Used more than a dozen tissues to wipe the spot where she was going to sit.
Dirk Carter wasn't unfamiliar with rich brats, for example, Dorothy Zechariah was definitely a rich second generation, yet she wasn't this fussy.
She wiped for five or six minutes.
Then asked the owner for a basin of hot water, scalding the bowls and chopsticks several tis over.
Finally, she sat down with peace of mind.
In a short while.
The owner started serving dishes.
After a few dishes ca out, Dirk Carter and Arlo Yarbrough dug in heartily.
Suddenly noticed Xiaoxue holding her bowl, looking completely hesitant to start eating, asked, "What's wrong?"
"These dishes are completely different from what I usually eat, I'm afraid to eat."
Arlo Yarbrough almost spat out the food in his mouth in shock.
Pointed to one of the dishes and asked, "This is fish-flavored shredded pork, haven't you had it?"
"No!"
Xiaoxue first shook her head, then frowned and asked, "Fish-flavored shredded pork, why can't I see any fish in it?"
"Is there a wife in wife cake?"
Arlo Yarbrough asked irritably.
Xiaoxue suddenly beca interested and asked, "What's wife cake? Can you eat it?"
Arlo Yarbrough was speechless too, pointing to another dish and asked, "Surely you've had boiled fish?"
Xiaoxue still looked blank and said, "Never had it."
Wow.
Dirk Carter said this girl is very rich.
Hasn't eaten this, hasn't eaten that, has being wealthy reached the point of being detached from the world?
"If you've never had it, you can try it today."
Dirk Carter encouraged her.
Xiaoxue swallowed, it was clear she was very hungry.
Picked up a piece of boiled fish with her chopsticks, examined it for a long ti before putting it into her mouth. Initially, her face looked pained, but she chewed more and more eagerly, her expression gradually relaxing.
She picked up another chopstick of fish-flavored shredded pork.
This ti, it was noticeably smoother.
"Mm, it's delicious, really delicious, I've never eaten anything so good before."
After saying this, Xiaoxue quickly started eating, quickly finishing a bowl of rice and imdiately refilling another. Her eating speed even left Arlo Yarbrough stunned.
"How long haven't you eaten?"
He couldn't help asking.
Xiaoxue giggled, her mouth full as she said, "I didn't have dinner last night, I've been hungry for a day."
Soon, two bowls of rice were down.
Xiaoxue patted her belly and contentedly said, "This is the best al I've ever had in my life, my mom always lied to saying outside food is dirty and tastes bad, I knew she was lying."
After they were all finished eating.
Dirk Carter pulled a set of keys from his pocket, handed them to Arlo Yarbrough, and said, "I've already rented a place for you, and arranged for soone to buy all the daily necessities, you can move in now. I'll accompany Xiaoxue to stay in a hotel. It's the weekend tomorrow, rest for a day and explore around, on Monday morning, report to the municipal party committee organization departnt."
"Good."
Arlo Yarbrough was indeed a bit tired.
He took his luggage and headed out by taxi.
Dirk Carter watched Xiaoxue trailing him like a tag-along.
Sighed.
Said, "Let's go, I'll find you a place to stay too."
