"Oh~ honey! Is it really you? " Hathaway exclaimed in surprise and hugged Sherri Len as soon as she opened the door. "God, I didn't expect to meet you again. You are here to visit the alma mater, aren't you?"
"Yes, Mrs. Hathaway. How are you doing recently?" Sherri also expressed her surprise for meeting professor Hathaway in French.
Noticing the tall and handsome man beside Sherri, Hathaway knew what was going on. While feeling sorry for her student, Mark Ning, she was also happy for Sherri to have found a suitable partner.
The two of them chatted for a while. Professor Hathaway mentioned Mark, "honey, have you seen Mark this time when you come back?"
Thinking of the good-looking young man who she used to despise, Sherri answered, "not yet. I came here in a hurry this time. am also on a business trip."
"Oh! Well, I will mention you to him! "
The two of them chatted for a while. Seeing that Elliot Mo was bored by the side, Sherri quickly said goodbye and took him out.
In the evening, the autumn wind messed up the leaves of Platanus trees on the ground. Looking at the white clouds flowing in the sky slowly, Sherri said, "Elliot, you know what? At that time, I lived in a small apartment not far from the school. The apartment was downstairs with Indian people, at the top of which was European, and all the people in the middle floor were Chinese."
"I want to see that apartment."
"Okay, I'll take you there. Don't know who lives there now." Sherri also wanted to go to the place where she used to live. It was not easy for her to come back, so she couldn't miss it.
She didn't know since when Sherri began to hold Elliot's hand. Looking at the small soft hand holding his slender and thick hand, he felt a little relieved. The little woman in front of him only just reached his shoulder.
After a few blocks, they stopped in front of a classical European style apartment, where they could see the bell tower of Paris business school. "This is where I used to live. It seems that new people have moved in." Looking at the apartment, Sherri sighed deeply in her heart. She didn't know whether she was talking to herself or to Elliot. Her eyes had never left the apartment. "At that time, I liked cooking in the apartment the most. Every time I cooked, I had to wrap the smoke sensor with golden paper. I was afraid that the fire engines would come when cooking! I lived alone. When I was cooking, those foreigners, English and French would squeeze into my room to taste the dishes I cooked. " Usually, Sherri wouldn't talk so much. But today, she couldn't help but recall a lot.
"Then the food cooked by my lady must be very delicious."
"Well, I'll cook it for you next time."
"Tonight."
"What?" Turning to look at Elliot, with a serious look on Sherri's face, she asked, "tonight?" Yet, she had nothing prepared.
"Yes, cook it in the manor tonight. I want to have a taste of Mrs. Mo's cooking." Elliot had always made a decision decisively without hesitation. It was better to meet the day than to pick a day. He also missed the food that Sherri had cooked for him.
"Okay." Sherri couldn't refuse the man in front of her who was always giving out his charm, not to mention just making dinner, not going up the mountain and down the sea of fire.
"It's late now. Let's go to the Asian supermarket to buy some food." Elliot said unhurriedly, but Sherri felt as if she had fallen into someone's conspiracy.
