“Justin, anyway you are a manager. Please don’t be so greedy in face of money. ” Seeing my behavior, Amanda seemed a bit puzzled.
“You don’t know, actually I…”
“Hello, Hello, Dad, it’s me. Okay, I’ll be home today. I’ll bring you my boy friend, no worries.” As I wanted to explain my current situation, she answered the phone, making me sulky.
“What? Justin, what did you want to say just now?” After finishing the call, she asked me.
“Nothing…”
“Since you have no disagreement, go to my home tonight. My parents want to see you as well.” She looked at me ambiguously with her side face.
“It happens too soon. I haven’t …”
She took a bank card out of her purse and fiddled it casually.
“I’m ready at any time.”
…That night, I went back home in advance and put on my most expensive suit. Amanda had already waited downstairs in her car. I had to say she was quite rich. I guessed this red BMW cost hundreds of thousands of RMB, which equals the cost for my younger sister to have a course of treatment… “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy?”
…As soon as I sat on the front passenger seat, Amanda approached me, bringing the smell of fragrance
“No, how could it be possible.”
“If you don’t wanna do me a favour, tell me frankly. Don’t wear that dirty look, okay?” She probably misunderstood me, but I didn’t want to explain. I didn’t care
We stopped in front of a luxurious housing estate in the city center, where I had once been to promote sales. Those who lived in this housing estate were either wealthy or famous. I turned to Amanda, wondering whether her family background was more prominent than her introduction. I followed her, watched her swinging hip and thought with guilty pleasure – should I pat her on the hip to take revenge on her flirt in the daytime?
“Here we are.”
Suddenly she stopped. I was not far behind her, so I didn’t react immediately and crashed into her back.
The heavy bump made her fall forward and I held her with arms by instinct.
“Let me go.”
I could clearly see the redness on her face even from behind. We kept this embarrassing gesture.
“J, Justin, you you ‘get out’ first, okay?”
“Get out? From where?”
“I see.” I knew we were outside and the gesture was indeed embarrassing and it wouldn’t be good to be seen by others. Although I was reluctant, I loosed my arms and stepped back.
“Playboy.” Amanda turned her head, rolling her eyes. The flirtish grumble enticed me, making me eager to kiss her and hold her.
She took out the key and opened the door. I followed her into the house.
The meal was ready with all dishes on the table. Her parents were chatting by the table. Seeing us coming, they turned their views towards us.
I had experienced extraordinary spectacles, so I behaved in a calm and confident way.
“What’s your job?”
