"Be responsible for me? How? Are you going to give me five million dollars or ten million dollars?!" Lisa said as she pulled open the quilt abruptly and pointed at a pool of glaring red blood on the bed and said, "My virginity has been ruined by you! How can you be responsible for my virginity?"
As for the small piece of red represent...
Everyone knew it regardless of the gender.
Looking at the blood on the bed, Roger hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll marry you."
"Bah! Who cares about your promise to marry me?" Lisa sneered. "For someone like you, even if you get married, you will have many mistresses outside! If I marry you, I surely will be cuckolded, right?"
"I'll try my best to restrain myself," said Roger with a slight frown.
"Control yourself? For three days or five days?" Lisa said as she picked up her bag and rolled her eyes at Roger, "I'm telling you, let bygones be bygones. Don't let me see you again. Or I'll beat you to death!"
After Lisa finished speaking, she pulled me out of the room.
We hailed a cab at a crossroad.
Lisa didn't say a word along the way.
After we arrived home...
As she changed her shoes, I poured her a glass of water. Before I could give her the water, Lisa looked at me with her eyes turning red. She hugged me and said, "originally, I want to keep my virginity for my husband!"
"I'm sorry, it was my fault yesterday." At this point, I couldn't be more guilty, saying, "I shouldn't have left. Or I should have insisted on bringing you back."
How good it woule be I had insisted on a little longer.
Lisa shook her head and said, "No, I don't blame you. It's my fault. Why should I have drunk so much wine? I actually gave my virginity to someone who is a scumbag, a playboy, and a jerk!"
"Yes, yes."
I didn't know what to say.
That night, I received a text from Roger saying, "Sister- in- law, how is Lisa? She blacklisted my number. I can't get in touch with her anymore."
He was talking bullshit.
I indeed had nothing to say to Roger. What he had done left me nothing to say.
Later, Roger sent me a lot of texts and asked me to speak up for him, only to be refused by me.
After all, I could relate to Lisa.
If it were me, I wouldn't have forgiven him for taking advantage of someone else's perilous state either.
In the evening, when I was cooking for Lisa, my cell phone rang again.
I instinctively thought it was Roger texting again. So I didn't pay attention to my cell phone. After a while, I went over to check my cell phone and found that it was a text from an unrecorded number.
The text read, "There is a surprise for you in the Oriental Restaurant at 7 p.m. From Roger."
Seeing the signatures at the end of the text, I turned off my cell phone with no deliberation and continued to cook.
When I was cooking, I remembered that this number was the same one with which someone had called me a few days ago saying nothing.
"Roger has been targeting me for a long time, right?"
He probably wanted to use me to threaten Patrick. Unfortunately, he made a mistake.
After I finished cooking, I had dinner with Lisa. Over dinner, I couldn't help glancing at my watch.
It was already 7 p.m.
Lisa's house wasn't far from the Oriental Restaurant. It wouldn't take me over ten minutes to get there by a taxi...
After eating dinner for another 10 minutes, Lisa watched the TV series aired on the television alone, scolding the leading actress for being an idiot and the male lead for being a b*stard.
Hearing her words. I made up my mind, put down my chopsticks, and said, "Lisa, I have something to do."
After that, I put on my coat and went out.
About ten minutes later, I arrived at the downstairs of Oriental Restaurant.
Patrick had brought me here to enjoy the food here before. Oriental Restaurant was crowded with clients. And vehicles coming and going incessantly at the entrance.
