17"Tina..."It was my mother!I quickly let go of him, pretending to look for something."Your aunt is asking me about the boy she introduced to you yesterday..." My mother said while walking over. Seeing Shepard standing at the door, she paused, "Shepard, I thought you had left.""Well, I will leave in a minute." Shepard hadn't expected my mother to urge him to leave, and he was a little flustered."Oh, I’d like to ask you to stay for lunch, but we will have a guest at home. It’s the boy that Tina’s aunt introduced to her yesterday, so..."When did she ask Johnson to lunch? What was my mother doing?As soon as I looked up, I saw Shepard staring at me fiercely.I looked back innocently and shrugged.He gritted his teeth and glanced at me. He didn’t believe it. "Well, I'm going."With that, he walked away with his jacket.I froze in place.What did he mean? Was he angry?"Mom, what are you doing?" I nudged my mother and said, "Why did you talk about my blind date in front
Author: Xian De Wu Liao De Xian Nü When I woke up on the second day of the classmate reunion, I touched a hairy leg before I opened my eyes. Out of curiosity, I couldn't help exploring a few times...The next second, bang! The door opened, and a group of people poured in.I was so scared that I quickly withdrew my hand, opened my eyes, and hugged the quilt tightly."Dr. Smith, the director is asking for you..."The several men who came in seemed to be frightened and let out bursts of exclamation.I was stunned.What Dr. Smith?I followed their gaze and saw a man lying beside me.His two legs were straight and slender, covered with masculine leg hairs, and then going up...I was petrified."Sorry, we... we didn't mean to..." They quickly closed their eyes and explained.I didn't know any of them, let alone the man lying beside me. Just when I was at a loss—The man next to me stretched out his hand to pull the quilt, opened his eyes a little, glanced at me, and said in a
6After answering the phone, I found my head buzzing.I walked up to him and returned the phone to him, not daring to look at him."You're a troublemaker..." He glanced at me and sighed deeply."I didn't know you were on the phone." I felt apologetic."Anyway, don't listen to him." He stood up and concluded."Dr. Smith, did you hear what I just said?" I cut to the chase."My grandpa heard it. What do you think?" he asked me."Oh." I waited for his answer."Think again," he said.I took his words as a refusal, so I froze in place and couldn't help shivering."Why?" I was impressed by myself. How could I ask such a question at this time?He was stunned for a moment and then sighed. "You are too young and too obedient. I am not a good person."Then he glanced at me again and murmured, "You're too young."I didn't know what he meant, but I blushed.I didn't know how I got out of his office.I just remembered what he said at the end,"The best option to fix a mistake is to
10Later I found that I might have underestimated his appetite.He ate slowly and fastidiously.When he was eating, there were even no food stains on the sides of his mouth.But he finished a large plate of spaghetti."Did I cook too little?" I was a little embarrassed."It's me. Too hungry." When he said the last two words, he suddenly looked at me and raised his voice.My heart skipped a beat. I avoided his gaze, quickly picked up the dishes, and went to the kitchen.As soon as I finished the dishes, I turned around and found him standing at the kitchen door and looking at me with a cigarette between his teeth.Why was he acting weird tonight? It made me very uncomfortable.I tidied up and was about to leave the kitchen. I passed by him and whispered, "You love smoking so much."As soon as I said that, my foot was caught by something. I lost my balance and threw myself into his arms.We were so close suddenly. I was so nervous that I wanted to leave, but he held me down.
13Back at the rental house, I edited a message several times and finally pressed the send button.It was just one sentence."Let's get a divorce."Maybe it seemed naive to him. I had made a mistake myself, and I was the one who was not sensible enough. I had asked Williams to get married not long ago, and now I was asking him for a divorce.However, even if I wanted to keep him, I didn't have any reason. I felt that I was useless except to cause trouble for him and his family.Dr. Shepard was indeed his girlfriend as I thought last time. They worked together, ate together, and they looked so well-matched. What was I? I was nothing...I could only quit.So the kiss that night was indeed a spur-of-the-moment thing, meaningless.After sending the message, I turned off my phone and went to sleep.In the middle of the night, I was woken up by menstrual pain.I struggled to get up and got myself a hot water bag to cover my belly.While I was boiling water, I couldn't help turnin
14I bought some vegetables and went home, and cooked several dishes.He slept until noon.He was smiling while eating."Why are you smiling?"Seeing him smiling, I felt awkward."Your cooking is pretty good." He took another piece of ribs and ate it carefully."I was living alone. I didn't have any hobbies, and I liked studying food." I didn't want to say that I had only cooked my best dishes to please him."Great." He looked at me with a smile. "The food in the hospital is terrible. I've eaten it in a hurry every time, and I've never tasted it."He brushed off the bitterness of his work.I couldn't help feeling sorry for him."Well, can you go home at night when you are not on duty? Tell me in advance, and I will prepare a meal for you. Or you can tell me what you like to eat, and I will try to cook it." I even started writing down his favorite dishes.He suddenly smiled again."Why are you smiling?" I was speechless."It feels good to be married." He drank another spoo
Author: Xian De Wu Liao De Xian Nü 1It was already 00:30 am, but I couldn't fall asleep. The sound insulation effect of this room was too poor and I could hear the heavy breathing of the man next door. I used to like it, but now I only found it harsh.After a few minutes, there came the sound of tissues being pulled out, followed by the laughter of a man and a woman. I felt so numb and upset.The man living next door was my ex-boyfriend Adam Herring, and he was laughing with his current girlfriend Lara Anderson.I was still living in this small two-bedroom apartment because I had just broken up with him two weeks ago.I walked out of my bedroom, went to the cold corridor, and smoked.I took a long drag on my cigarette and I instantly found it hard to breathe. It made me shed tears.I snuffed out the cigarette and waited for about 15 minutes before I got up and returned to my bedroom.Lying on the bed, I was thinking that this was probably his parting gift to me.I thought I
6Dr. Anderson did not drive me to the subway station but directly took me downstairs to my apartment.I pretended to be unaware of it and accepted his kindness.He remembered my address. I found it interesting.When the car stopped, it was getting dark.It was good that it was getting dark. It was time to vent one's desires that had been suppressed during the day."Dr. Anderson, I'm so sorry to have kept you so long today. Are you hungry? Would you like to go upstairs and have dinner?" I sounded sincere and grateful.Inviting a strange man to go home at night implied a romantic interest.Dr. Anderson was a normal man. If he had no such interest, he would immediately reject me.If…He stared at me with deep eyes. In the darkness, his nose was straight, and he had a perfect jawline.He was way more handsome than Adam. Vanity told me that if I hooked up with him, Adam would be greatly humiliated.He thought for a while, perhaps weighing. In the end, he turned and pulled out t
