Leo and Lydia were still hanging out in the mall.
Although Lydia tore the cheque with her own hands, she was the kind of person who obeyed the law of reciprocity. In response to her forcible “request”, Leo had to try another suit worth more than 50,000 dollars.
Tinkling, tinkling, tinkling----
At this moment, Marie called a video.
“Dad, what are you doing?”
As soon as the video was switched on, Leo saw Emilia with a face full of excitement.
Leo and Lydia smiled and waved to their daughter, “Dad is shopping with mom. What have you played?”
“Auntie rode the roller coaster, the jumping machine, the free fall, the big pendulum and many others with me. Auntie is so nice!”
Speaking of this, Emilia talked like a lark with rapture.
Marie sat on the side with a pale face, looked obviously depressed and frightened.
Comparing them, Leo couldn’t help laughing, “You really suffered a lot.”
“Yep, for the sake of you, right?”
Marie suddenly sat up like a female cat whose tail had been stepped on, but she stopped halfway through.
Glancing at Leo, he whispered, “How is going now? How is the shopping with Lydia?”
Leo raised the bag in his hand, “I bought a skirt for Lydia, and Lydia bought me a suit.”
“Good.”
Marie said in surprise, “Then I won’t disturb you, bye.”
The moment Marie posted the video, Leo narrowed his eyes slightly.
He didn’t know whether it was his illusion. He saw a blurry figure in Marie’s video, watching them vaguely.
“What’s wrong?” Lydia said softly.
“It’s nothing.”
Leo’s expression immediately changed to be normal. He continued shopping with Lydia.
However, his look was not as relaxed as before.
“I hope it’s only an illusion...”
After walking around for a day, the night was getting dark, and before they knew it, the two walked to the bottom of the Emerdale Tower.
Lydia suddenly said, “Let’s go, I’ll treat you to dinner.”
The Emerdale Tower was the representative building of Emerdale. The expenses for the hotels in it were of astronomical prices.
Leo nodded and did not refuse.
They should find a romantic place for their first date, shouldn’t they?
Guided by the receptionist, Leo and Lydia went to the pre-booked box.
The box was at the top of the Emerdale Tower. From there, they can stand on the top of the third tallest building in the world and overlook the entire night view of Emerdale.
When night falls, the night of Emerdale was a little less noisy and a little more charming than the daytime.
“This is the first time we have eaten together face to face.” Lydia said softly, looking at the man sitting in front of her.
Leo nodded, “Yes.”
The last time when they had Western food together was a family of three, not just the two of them.
“I’ve always felt that I am a shrewd judge of character.”
Lydia held her chin with both hands, looked at Leo and said, “Until I met you.”
Leo smiled, “Why do you say that?”
“You’ve given me so many surprises, and every time I think I’ve seen through you, you’re giving me a head bang.”
Lydia said softly, “In the beginning, I thought you were a timid and irresponsible scumbag. Later, I thought you should find out with your conscience, but you still have no money, no power, and no job.”
