As expected, Angela didn't go to the bathroom directly. She said in Mandarin that she wanted to borrow the phone from the receptionist. The receptionist listened carefully and finally understood what she meant.
He stood aside, watching her press the phone number of the other party skillfully, his heart was like stabbed by a needle.
Ten minutes later, she returned to her seat. With a straight posture, Edward lowered his head and ate the food on the plate. After getting in touch with Lesley, she felt relieved and her appetite was much better.
Angela ate slowly without giving him a single look. It was the first time that he had been ignored, and he felt very uncomfortable.
She got in touch with him and had an appetite now. Why didn't she look at him? Would she be so angry for just a quarrel?
Although Edward cared about it, he still looked indifferent.
Twenty minutes later, the two of them finished their meal in silence.
Seeing that she was full, he paid the bill and took her out.
After walking out of the door, Edward grabbed her wrist and said, "I'll take you to a place."
Before Angela could react, she was led into the crowd by him. H Administrative Region was an island, surrounded by the sea on all sides, adjacent to the S City. Because of the history of being colonial, the economy had developed dozens of years faster than that of the mainland. Although the development in the mainland was not worse than here in the past few years, there was still a difference between the two regions in development.
It made her feel good that Edward said in such a high spirit that he would take her to a place. He led her across two streets and entered a bookstore. The shops here were very small. Although the bookstore was short and narrow, it had a rich collection of books.
"The books in the mainland are heavily expurgated. Almost all the books here are not deleted. I bought "The Golden Lotus" in my study room here." Then he took out a Book of Wang Xiaobo from the bookshelf and said, "he revealed the nature of human nature with sexual description. It's worth reading."
Angela had read a small part of it, and she felt like she was reading a pornographic book, and she didn't read it later.
"Well, I've heard that his book is worth reading." She took the book and turned to the back subconsciously. When she saw the price, she was shocked. Two hundred and fifty Just a book? Two hundred and fifty dollars?
Noticing her shock, Edward explained, "there's a strict supervision on the infringement of copyright here. The books are usually sold at a high price, but they are worth buying!"
That's because you are rich!
Angela thought to herself, but she agreed with him, "plagiarism should be strictly investigated! This is also good for the creation of better literature!"
