"Malcolm..." In the quiet room, Poppi spoke first with a hint of grievance, "stand up, the ground is so cold, my back is still painful."
Malcolm kept silent with a cold look.
"What's wrong?" After a while, Poppi hung her hand around his neck with a guilty conscience. Because of the pain in her body, she ignored the undercurrent in his eyes.
"If it's your trick to lure me, it's too cheap." After saying this coldly, Malcolm fell off holding Poppi's arm and stood up agilely. "Go and cook."
Poppi leaned on the ground and rolled her eyes. Then she held her waist and stood up slowly. Okay, Okay.. She think she likes the Miss Malcolm's maid. She bore the pain to cook dinner for Mr. Malcolm.
At night, various streets and alleys of Ye city were enveloped. The city was bustling with streams of people and flashing neon lights, wearing a serene and peaceful atmosphere.
"Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be reached at the moment, please..."
"What happened?" Inside a suite of the Blue Sea Hotel, Hugh was lying on the bed, raising his arm and holding his mobile phone, with his eyes fixed on the screen of the phone. He muttered, "no one answered the phone just now. Why can't I dial it now Is it... " As soon as he heard that, Hugh sat up from the bed and asked, "what happened?"
"Mr. Su, here are the documents you want." At this moment, his assistant walked in with a stack of files.
As soon as he saw what was written on the piece of paper, Hugh frowned and took over the document in his hand. He decided to wait for some more time. After reading the files, he would look for her else if there was still no information about Poppi.
In the living room of the first floor of the Imperial Tang Yard, Poppi rubbed her waist and was going to the kitchen. When she was halfway to think of her mobile phone, she turned back and walked to the sofa while humming. She looked around for her mobile phone, but her eyes suddenly froze at the moment when she saw the glass of water. Her pupils shrank all of a sudden. She felt pain all over her body and cried out with pain, "my mobile phone..."
Malcolm stood on the stairs and was about to go upstairs when he heard the noise. He looked back and saw that Poppi's mobile phone was quietly soaked in the water. Seeing that she stumbled to get her mobile phone out, he was speechless.
"Is it useful?" Holding her phone that was still dripping, Poppi twitched her mouth and mocked herself, "you threw it so precisely..."
"What kind of phone is this?" Mr. Malcolm said while he is going downstairs.
Poppi did not expect that Mr. Malcolm would come down. She turned around in a daze and suddenly remembered something. Her eyes were bright and she said, "my mobile phone comes from your company. Can you help me repair it? The engineer of your company must be fine with it, right? "
Malcolm cast a glance at her phone, "our engineer is really good. But he's not God."
His words broke all of her illusions, but Malcolm continued, "besides, you have been suspended for almost two years because of the payment was three years ago. It will be soon eliminated even if which have been repaired."
"But it has been with me for so many years. I can't bear to lose it!" Poppi puckered up her lips and stole a glance at Malcolm, "Mr. Malcolm, isn't your company launching new phones recently? Began to launch the pre sale the day after tomorrow? I think that white one is great It looks like my phone. If I have a new one... "
Malcolm interrupted, "I can't see any similar between them except that both are white."
Poppi rolled her eyes and said, "all right I'm starving to death. Malcolm, what do you want to eat? " Saying that, Poppi stood up and put the phone on the table, then she walked to the kitchen and asked, "how about spicy noddles today? Do you want to eat? "
"Yes." Malcolm answered in a calm voice. He was not particular about food. Moreover, the food cooked by Poppi was quite to his taste. Even if he had spicy food at night, it didn't matter. Thinking of this, Malcolm took a look at her phone on the table and pondered for a while. Then he picked up his phone, turned around and went upstairs.
Malcolm's grandmother once said that if Poppi lost her job, she could totally run a restaurant and her business must be great. Smelling the delicious aroma of the kitchen, Malcolm looked at Poppi who was humming the song while cooking, and suddenly felt the granny's proposal was good.
