plying, "Strictly speaking, I'm a retired soldier.""Which country, America""Belongs to no country." He smiled."Mercenary"Qiao Bao'er guessed and asked, the other party's face flashed strangely for a m...A high-end French restaurant.
A champagne-colored silk tablecloth, the table set with a romantic pair of candles for two, two servings of delicious French caviar, and a crystal chandelier overhead sparkling brightly, reflecting the smiles on the faces of the man and woman seated across from each other at the table, more enchanting and brilliant.
The restaurant boasts a serene and elegant ambiance, with the soothing melodies of a violin adding a touch of sweetness and romance to the atmosphere.
But Pei Haoran at the next table had his eyes blazing with fury. He propped up his menu card high above his head, shielding his face, while he glared menacingly at the couple dining in front of him.
On one side, gritted his teeth, "What candles are you lighting in broad daylight" With a jealous expression, he almost wanted to rush over and scold the person at the table.
"Sir, are you dissatisfied with our dishes in any way"
The manager of the Western restaurant was patrolling when he noticed that this table of guests had ordered food but hadn't touched it. He immediately went over to inquire, very professionally.
Pei Haoran continued to glare at the table in front of him with blazing eyes, ignoring the restaurant manager beside him. He didn't even lift his head and just mumbled, "It's nothing."
"Sir, is our roast lamb not to your liking" The manager of this restaurant was very attentive.
Pei Haoran just felt that he was very annoyed, and impatiently looked up, "I have no opinion on your lamb chops."
"Could it be that our sauce doesn't suit your taste, sir If you have any suggestions, please let me know and we will do our best to satisfy our guests..." The well-dressed restaurant manager was extremely polite.
"For my own reasons, I don't want to eat. Please leave me alone."
Pei Haoran was very agitated, he didn't even have the appetite for dragon meat now.
Hearing the guest speak in such a tone, the restaurant manager also felt awkward. He politely bowed, "Enjoy your meal, and please feel free to call us if you need anything." Then he left, continuing to check on other tables.
Pei Haoran, after seeing the competent manager leave, continued to frown and stare upwards.
He was stunned.
Where is everyone
Zhu Xiaowei's table was empty, where did she and that guy named Henry, the blonde man, go
Get up immediately and look around.
A familiar figure walked out of the restaurant's glass door. Pei Haoran hurriedly called a waiter to settle the bill, not even bothering to look at the price, he just threw one thousand euros on the table. His handsome and elegant face was somewhat anxious, and he quickly chased after the person, afraid of losing them.
"Sir, sir, you paid too much, it doesn't need to be one thousand euros..." The female cashier hurried and shouted towards his back as he came to pay.
The lamb chops he ordered cost only 299 euros.
The service at this high-end restaurant was impeccable, and they immediately followed him, stopping him and saying, "Sir, your money..."
"Anything extra is your tip."
Pei Haoran's expression was somewhat fierce, he roared at the beautiful female waitress in front of him. The other party seemed to be frightened by him, and Pei Haoran lost interest in these onlookers. He immediately strode out after her.
Where did Zhu Xiaowei and that yellow-haired guy go
He dashed out of the restaurant, watching the crowds bustling on the street, his face etched with agitation.
Pei Haoran was unfamiliar with the traffic conditions in Paris. He turned around and looked around, but he couldn't find Zhu Xiaowei.
The passersby were fashionable, laughing and chatting. Couples walked hand-in-hand, their arms around each other's waists, passing by in pairs. This was the Champs-lysées in Paris, a famous shopping and tourist destination with a large number of visitors.
Pei Haoran was a little annoyed.
You can run but you can't hide.
Just as he was about to go back to the old apartment building to wait for an opportunity, a commotion came from his right. Pei Haoran instinctively turned his head to look.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and Zhu Xiaowei was also in the crowd.
He quickened his pace to catch up, getting closer and closer. Pei Haoran's face was becoming increasingly grim. That damned Henry was being so forward, practically glued to Zhu Xiaowei's side, with his right hand even wrapped around her waist.
Pei Haoran was filled with resentment, burning with anger. He felt like he had just seen his wife being taken advantage of by a man, and he rushed forward intending to beat him up.
However, Zhu Xiaowei, who was wearing a fashionable light purple floral dress and holding up her skirt with both hands, walked quickly and eagerly toward a hotel ahead in a pair of small black high heels.
Pei Haoran followed closely behind, almost unable to believe his own eyes.
They went to the hotel.
A couple on a date, having just finished dinner at an upscale Western restaurant, smiled at each other, affectionately put their arms around each other's waists as they walked down the street, and then went to a hotel.
This romantic Paris, they went to the hotel and checked in.
"Those two guests who just left did indeed book a room."
Pei Haoran's face was complex as he stepped into the hotel, using his great patience to inquire at the front desk. He guessed that a conservative woman like Zhu Xiaowei could never accept a stranger so quickly, even if she went to a hotel with a man, it would be two separate rooms. However, the facts made his heart sink suddenly.
"Haha, romantic Paris," Pei Haoran sneered, a smirk playing on his lips.
A woman's heart is like the ocean floor - impossible to fathom.
She's really changed a lot. Since she's been in Paris, she's also picked up on the dating ideas of those people there and constantly tries different relationships. This so-called "love above all else" and "love at first sight" stuff that Pei Haoran sees is just plain nonsense.
That guy named Henry, with the blonde hair, looks very young, probably no more than in his early twenties.
Is it a sibling romance
This is really popular in Europe right now. Young people, with good energy and a variety of styles, showing affection and declaring love on the streets brings great satisfaction to women's vanity.
Pei Haoran stood gloomily in the hotel lobby, his mind filled with hideous thoughts. Thinking of her being alone with a man in the hotel made him want to go crazy.
He pounded on the hotel door, bang, bang, bang—
With a slam, the door swung open. Pei Haoran, driven by fury and losing all reason, grabbed Henry's tie with his left hand and punched him hard in the nose with his right fist. Blood flowed from Henry's nose as he winced in pain, groaning loudly.
"What's going on with you!"
Zhu Xiaowei heard the commotion and immediately looked over. Seeing Pei Haoran fighting with Henry, she was startled and quickly stepped forward to intervene, shielding Henry behind her. Angry, she exclaimed, "Pei Haoran, what's gotten into you"
"Pei Haoran, don't think that because you have a little money you can get away with assaulting people. This is Paris, we will call the police and have you arrested!"
Pei Haoran saw that she was still so protective of this "adulterer," and he went mad with anger.
“Well, go ahead and sue me, let me rot in jail… Get out of here, I’m not letting him go today no matter what.”
Pei Haoran was furious and punched Henry hard in the right abdomen.
As a result, they actually went to the Paris police station.
The hotel staff were unable to mediate, and Pei Haoran, seemingly without reason, was filled with anger. His eyes only saw Henry as he relentlessly lunged forward, throwing punches. Henry, of course, wouldn't just stand there and take it. The two men grappled together, their clothes in disarray, faces bruised and bloodied. Zhu Xiaowei shouted anxiously from the sidelines, while the hotel staff had no choice but to call the police to handle the situation.
Pei Hao then regretted it.
He admitted that he had been too impulsive just now. He didn't care anymore, even if he caused a big deal, he would definitely beat Henry up. How dare he check into a hotel with Zhu Xiaowei He couldn't bear it.
That will absolutely not happen, especially with him watching, it's impossible!
"We're not as dirty as you think."
Zhu Xiaoyue’s face was cold, her eyes looking at him as if he were a stranger. “We passed on the street and my dress got dirty. My whole body smelled sour, so we went back to the hotel to shower! Henry was just being considerate and helping me. You guys are always suspicious of everything. If there's even a little bit that seems off, you jump to conclusions. Remember what happened with Guan Lei before Did I ever say anything about it”
Zhu Xiaowei's tone was angry, but also disappointed and heartbroken.
"Mr. Pei, I'm done with you. Aren't you being too controlling" She gradually calmed down, staring coldly at him.
Pei Haoran was rendered speechless by her words.
He wanted to retort, to explain.
He was just impulsive, he was just too nervous. He didn't really doubt her character.
He just couldn't accept her being intimate with another man.
"I'm sorry."
Pei Haoran lowered his head, but his right hand tightly gripped the gift bag of jewelry he had brought from China. Inside was a necklace he had custom-made for her, and... he was prepared to propose to her with a ring as well.ast time, then turned and walked out, saying, "I'll go downstairs to get the medicine box…""No need..."Jun Zhimu subconsciously opened his mouth, turning his head to meet Qiao Baobao's gaze at the doo...
