“It’s the dried tofu skewer. Look… It’s all burnt, and you can’t eat it if it’s burnt. You’re just wasting it. It’ll usually be cooked in a minute or so, so you have to turn it over frequently,” Sarah said as she rushed over and pushed James away. She checked the food on the grill one by one. Fortunately, only the dry tofu skewers were burnt; the rest were fine.The dried tofu skewers were burnt not because of where it was grilled; the fire was simply too intense.Guided by the light from the Bugatti’s headlights, Sarah threw the burnt skewers into the garbage bag next to her. She then skilfully grilled the remaining ingredients.When she saw a bunch of dried tofu skewers that looked cooked, she picked them up and ate them. She ate as she grilled, and proceeded to comment, “Wow… It’s so delicious. Who prepared the ingredients?” Each skewer was grilled without even putting any sauce on them, but they tasted as if they had been brushed with sauce. It was her first time ever tasting su
“Mhmm… It’s very expensive.” As he replied, James glanced at the clothes she was wearing. Sarah felt increasingly uneasy. “How expensive is it? Five-thousand bucks?”“Fifty-thousand bucks.” He usually would not negotiate and straight away paid for it. The processing fee was 20,000 bucks. As for the ingredients, he simply mentioned that it was 30,000 bucks because everything on the table was organic. The vegetables were grown to a beautiful green without chemical fertilizers, which could not be bought from any ordinary supermarket. 30,000 bucks was deemed pretty cheap. “James, why don’t you go and rob someone instead?” Sarah jumped up and reached out to pinch his hand.Seeing her hand coming over, he silently put down the skewer and reached out, showing her his hand that looked like a piece of art. “Pinch.”She immediately lost interest in pinching him. There was no point in doing that. “Then I don’t need them.”"Well, it’s best that you don’t.” James was only willing to pre
“How Is she?” Sarah was expecting this man to carry the person over for medical attention, but he unexpectedly came back alone.“She won’t die. A car will pick her up later.”“I’ll go check,” Sarah said as she put the skewer in her hand down.“She can talk and is still conscious, so just send her to the hospital. I don’t want to cause any trouble,” James added—his tone sounding heavy.There were too many people out to kill him, so the less contact he had with people, the better.That was the best way to protect himself.When James said it that way, Sarah recalled the car accident he experienced, then took another look in the direction of the woman and stopped walking over.Choking on seawater could easily be resolved by spitting it out. She would not be able to help much anyway. After all, the woman was awake.Thus, Sarah returned to the grill and continued grilling.The image of two individuals, one grilling while the other ate, was portrayed on the long beach. It was a uniqu
“Sir, I beg you. Please save me. I still want to take care of my poor son, otherwise, he will be sent to the welfare institution.” The woman shrank back in fear when James shouted sternly at her. She thought James did not want Sarah to save her so she kept kowtowing desperately to James.“She said she can’t treat you. Take her away.”As soon as he said this, the two staff immediately dragged the woman into the car.Sarah could not bear it and said, “Leave your phone number. I'll call you when I can think of a cure.”“Okay… Okay… Thank you.” The woman did not care if Sarah was very young. She had already chosen Sarah to treat her when Sarah knew that she often vomited blood.Since she was about to die, it was appropriate for her to hope to live.The woman told Sarah her phone number and left, leaving only two people on the beach again.James was almost full.He did not eat too much of anything, no matter how delicious the food was when they were presented to him; it was all the
“Okay.” James agreed without even thinking about it, but agreeing was one thing, and doing it was another. When he was ‘unconscious’, Sarah kept touching him so it would be reasonable and legal for him to do the same.Thus, half an hour later, the Bugatti Veyron stopped in front of the best hotel in T City, Hotel Kiewit, which was rated seven-stars.A porter approached and greeted him, “Sir, do you need valet service?”James handed over his car key, then turned around and opened the car door for Sarah. “Let’s go.”When Sarah looked at the hand that James handed over, she recalled the warmth of his palm. Her palm fell gently onto it, and she asked in a whispering voice after the porter turned around, “Do I pay or are you paying?” It was a seven-star hotel so she would love to enjoy it for once, but she could not afford it. With a man like James, it was better to ask first. Otherwise, she might accidentally sell herself and have to help him to count the money. She was stupid once, bu
Suddenly, Sarah thought of something important. She then hurriedly went out, opened the balcony door, and said, “James, it’s better to go back to school. I’ll get my ID and find a hotel by myself.”“Uh… the room has been paid for. It’s non-refundable.”“But I don’t have any clean clothes to change into.”“There will be some tomorrow morning. Madam Zoe will send them over.”Sarah had no way to refute each of James’ replies. “Alright then.” In actuality, the main thing she wanted was his jade.Thus, she compromised.She was trying to save that child’s mother.After taking a shower and coming out, Sarah changed into the hotel’s pajamas.The pajamas were all brand new in this seven-star hotel.It was just a little short. She opened the balcony door and peeked her little head out. “It’s your turn.”“Okay.” James nodded slightly. He tossed the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray next to him and looked at Sarah. “Are you not coming into the balcony? Are you trying to watch me sho
Sarah was slightly relieved, and then her sight fell on his neck. “I like your jade. Lend it to me for a night and I’ll give it back to you when you wake up tomorrow morning, okay?”James’ mother said that his jade was his lifeblood and he could not just give it away to other people, otherwise, she would really like to steal it.“Okay.” James took off the jade without hesitation and handed it to Sarah. If the little woman wanted stars, he would find a way to pick them for her, let alone one of his personal items.After getting the jade, Sarah clutched it in her hand and was in a great mood. “Turn off the lights. I’m going to sleep now.”“Okay.”The lights were switched off.Only the sound of two people breathing lightly remained in the room.Sarah turned her head to look at James who was next to her. He consciously kept a distance as if there was a border of two opposing powers. He was quite a gentleman.“James, I believe in you. I hope you don’t disappoint me, otherwise, I’ll
“I’ll return your clothes. I don’t f*cking owe you any money, not even a single cent. You’re the one who owes me a life.”Sarah did not want to talk about saving his life. However, she was mad about him getting a double room to pick on her when he had a presidential suite and a standard room.He surely had bad intentions.If it was not for the fact that he really did not touch her last night, she would have cut off his penis so he could no longer have sexual intercourse. She was still capable of carrying out such deeds.At least the knowledge in her head was gradually increasing.James took the sticky note and kept it in his pajama’s pocket. As for the clothes, he did not mind if she did not want it. He did not lie previously; he really bought a lot of women's wear before the accident, and all of them suited Sarah’s size.It was his chain store, so of course he was the one who bought it.Hence, he had many other dresses left if she did not want that set.He touched the jade on his nec
