The freckled boy breathed a sigh of relief, looking gratefully at Ariel, who had sohow appeared by his side, and shyly whispered a thank you with a blush.
"I’ve fulfilled my promise, you can go now, but rember to walk fast, or I might change my mind and drag you back." Xu Ke said with a hint of threat in his voice as he glanced at the freckled boy who still couldn’t forget the beauty even at this mont.
The freckled man, seeing Xu Ke coming to catch him, turned pale, and without caring about anything, turned around and ran.
Watching the figure disappearing into the distance, the tall and thin man also looked at his own wound on his stomach, a bitter smile on his face, but the freckled boy was right about one thing; he had to swallow his pride to survive now and wait for a day to take revenge.
The tall and thin man figured it out, deciding not to maintain a haughty stance of preferring death over dishonor, but instead looked at Xu Ke with the sa grateful eyes as the freckled boy.
For the sake of survival, everything was a necessary sacrifice, the tall and thin man told himself.
"I was wrong about today’s incident, can you forgive ? I sincerely admit my mistake. Earlier, I was impolite, you were right, I wasn’t gentlemanly enough. But if you give a chance, I will definitely change. Please believe ." The tall and thin young man looked up at Xu Ke and said.
"No, why do your words sound so awkward to ? The boy just now spoke much better than you. Yours sounds like a neglected wife complaining to her husband." Ariel shivered, hugging her arms, her face full of disdain.
Hearing Ariel’s words, thinking about what the tall and thin young man said, Lin ngyao’s expression beca less pleasant, but the most interesting expressions were still on the two protagonists in the scene.
Xu Ke’s face turned blue, looking at Ariel with a grievance even he didn’t realize, while the tall and thin boy’s expression beca quite colorful, even sowhat disgusted.
However, the tall and thin man quickly adjusted his state, opened his mouth again and said, "You misunderstood , I am not very good at speaking, I was genuinely expressing my apology. All my actions earlier were impulsive. I have a bad temper, and when provoked, I lose my temper easily. It wasn’t intentional, and now that I’m injured, can’t these facts offset my mistakes?" A nearly twenty-year-old boy started crying just like that, and the speed at which he burst into tears was astonishing, almost worthy of comparison with movie stars.
"I beg you, let go. I’m still young, I don’t want to die. I promise not to do such things again. May God strike down if I do." The young man pleaded, gesturing at his chest.
A knife was still lodged in his abdon, with blood constantly flowing from between his fingers, making those watching feel alard. Soon his face turned increasingly pale, with a hint of blueness, indicating that the knife was indeed embedded quite deeply.
Lin ngyao felt a pang of sympathy in her heart, went over to Xu Ke, and gently grasped his arm, whispering to him, "Let’s call a doctor for him. If he continues bleeding like this, it’s easy for him to go into shock, and he really hasn’t hard us. He’s suffered enough punishnt, don’t you think?"
Looking at Lin ngyao’s gentle eyes, Xu Ke smiled, "I’ll listen to you." Xu Ke had no objections to Lin ngyao’s idea, just like she said, the punishnt was enough.
Ariel shrugged her shoulders, looked regretfully at the boy’s wound, and under the watchful eyes of Xu Ke and Lin ngyao, made a call for an ambulance.
"Alright, the call is made, and the ambulance should be here soon. We’ve been out for quite a while; let’s find a place to eat, I’m hungry." Ariel said, not very ladylike, touching her belly.
"Then let’s go, I’m a little hungry too." Lin ngyao mimicked Ariel’s action and touched her own belly.
The three of them arrived at a restaurant that had a very rustic look, with wooden tables and chairs and a coffee-colored main the, giving the place a storytelling vibe.
"I like the decor here, it’s like watching a story." Lin ngyao said after sitting down next to Xu Ke.
"I think it’s nice too." Xu Ke nodded, agreeing with Lin ngyao.
"I found this place online; although the boss is new, no one who cos here complains about the food, all the reviews are great. Plus, I like the decor of this place. It has a unique charm that fascinates . If the owner looks a little better, this place would be unbeatable, and I would fall in love with it." Ariel propped her chin up with her hands, tilting her head, and said with pleasure.
As the three of them were talking, rhythmic footsteps ca from behind Ariel, and a man in a fitting suit walked out.
He looked like a typical Western gentleman, giving off a ticulous, almost obsessive-compulsive vibe at first glance. Xu Ke noticed that his walking steps were uniformly sized, with a constant rhythm, and even the swing of his arms was identical.
This is an intriguing person, Xu Ke thought, raising an eyebrow, but he didn’t intend to pry into the man’s business.
He stopped in front of Xu Ke’s table, performing a standard courtly bow, which made him look like a noble, carrying an inexplicable charm in every movent.
"Welco to our store, what would you like to order?" As he spoke, the man, like performing a magic trick, produced three thick nus from behind him, respectfully handing them to the three of them.
"Wow, when you ca over, you clearly didn’t have anything in your hand, how did a nu suddenly appear? Can you tell how you did it?" Ariel blinked her eyes full of curiosity and asked.
"Sorry, dear lady, I’m afraid I can’t tell you that secret; otherwise, how can I continue to surprise you next ti?" The man’s face showed just the right amount of tender regret. His eyes were pure green, with the outermost circle of his pupils coated in a layer of golden yellow, making them resemble an infinite prairie full of life yet quietly beautiful like a verdant lake.
No one could resist being enchanted by such a pair of eyes.
"Your eyes are so beautiful, the most beautiful eyes I’ve ever seen." Ariel smiled happily, her eyes filled with infatuation, while her heart felt a hint of regret.
