"What kind of justice do I want to administer?"
When Charlie heard Marianne's question, he smiled slightly and said, "I can't tell you this for the time being. I'll leave you with a little sense of mystery."
Marianne could not help but frown and ask him, "Have you ever thought about what you would do if Dillion were to target you, then? How can you defeat the Order of the Star on your own in Hong Kong?”
Charlie raised his eyes and smiled as he said, "You really underestimate me. Do you think that I won't be able to defeat them on my own? I wouldn't even be worried if they came at me as a group!”
Marianne thought that Charlie was boasting again, and she felt as if Charlie had drained her emotionally. Hence, she could only shake her head helplessly and say, "Okay, you win!"
Having said that, she could only walk out of the parking lot together with Charlie.
When the two of them exited the parking lot, they went to the most crowded shopping mall in Tsim Sha Tsui.
In addition to the crowded flow of customers here, many salesmen specialized in sales and promotion as well as many areas for the exhibition of commodities.
There were multiple neatly organized booths in the best location in the mall, and the Hong Kong University's banner was hanging on all of these booths. Many students in school uniforms were busy in front of the booths.
Marianne was in a complicated mood as she led Charlie directly to these booths, which was the venue where she and her classmates were doing their charity sales.
When they saw Marianne coming over, many students were very surprised, and many of them gathered around to greet her.
One of the boys who was wearing a pair of glasses hurried forward and asked," Marianne, why are you here today?"
Marianne smiled slightly and replied, “I happened to have something to do here in the afternoon, so I decided to stop by."
The crowd started cheering as they were inspired by Marianne, and all of them were full of energy.
At this time, a refined and gentle-looking girl looked at Charlie and asked," Marianne, who is this handsome man? You haven't introduced him to us."
Marianne looked at Charlie and said to the crowd, "This is Mr. Wade, a guest of my family."
"Guest?" The girl smiled as she said," Marianne, could this be the fiance that your family has arranged for you?"
"How can that be?!" Marianne felt as if she was about to suffer an emotional breakdown when she heard the word' fiance', so she said without hesitation," Don’t start any gossip here. Mr. Wade is my father's friend, and he came to Hong Kong to discuss some matters with my father. I’m temporarily acting as his guide to show him around as he hasn't been to Hong Kong for many years."
"I see." The girl said regretfully, "Marianne, this handsome man is actually very compatible with you! You can consider dating him! I've known you for so long, but I haven't seen you dating before. Everyone is still looking forward to seeing who you will end up with before graduation!"
