Chapter 45 I'm Asking You to Shut Up
The morning breeze was a bit cool in late summer.
With the wind blowing, her heart began to beat fiercely out of joy.
He gave his response.
It was like a candle burning in a dark room, and a distant star in the night sky.
The light was faint.
But it made her more determined.
Natalie walked back to the hall of the villa through the courtyard and said hello to everyone she met.
Although she smiled in a consciously restrained way, it could still be found at first glance how happy she was at the moment.
She came back to the bedroom. She found it hard to hold back and wanted to share her joy.
She didn't realize that she was in another world until she took out her phone.
She had no relatives or friends.
Those who were in her social circle were not her friends at all.
Finally, Natalie opened Twitter and registered a new account.
She wrote down her first tweet.
It was about him.
"He kissed me, and he took the initiative! My mood at the moment is beyond words. I only feel the sky blue and the wind warm, and I'm stepping on a ball of cotton. I want to smile and keep smiling."
Foxley was located in Bannworth.
There were many temples.
Four hundred eighty splendid temples still remained; Of Southern Dynasties in the mist and rain.
Kendrick got into the black van immediately after the plane landed.
Nigel took out the tablet PC and reported the itinerary, "We are expected to arrive at the hotel at ten o'clock, and no arrangement will be made this afternoon. You can have a good rest, and in the evening I will send you an email about tomorrow's meeting."
Kendrick straightened up the cufflinks in his shirt and said, "I will go to Saint Hill Temple this afternoon to meet Mr. Shaffer."
Nigel wrote down quickly, "I will arrange it for you."
Twenty years ago, Kendrick came to Bannworth with his parents when he was 6 years old.
His father got a favorable draw for him in Saint Hill Temple, and entreated Mr. Shaffer to tell fortunes.
"Noble but vulnerable"
Mr. Shaffer was rather honest.
He said directly that it was the result.
Although his father was displeased, he didn't show it.
Unexpectedly, the draw turned out to be a prophecy.
Knowing that Kendrick was coming, Mr. Shaffer started the prohibition in advance and closed the door to refuse any visitor.
He didn't do so because Kendrick was Mr. Ramsey in the Ramsey family, but because it was Kendrick.
After Kendrick arrived at the temple, he was invited to the meditation room where Mr. Shaffer was waiting for him.
"I've come to pray!" said Kendrick.
Surprise registered on Mr. Shaffer's old face.
What Kendrick had said many years ago still echoed in his ears clearly.
"I don't believe in these things or fate."
Kendrick smiled, "I didn't come here for myself."
Mr. Shaffer calmed himself down, with a smile showing in his eyes, "It must be someone rather important who makes you bother to come here."
The temple was on the top of the mountain. Obviously, it was quite difficult for Kendrick to go up.
Besides, he even came here from Goldburg, which was thousands of miles away.
But Kendrick just smiled faintly, saying nothing.
"Please write down his or her birthday and your blessings on the cloth." Mr. Shaffer said, "I will hang it in the courtyard later to make it take all the anima in both heaven and earth, and good fortune."
Kendrick followed his words.
Mr. Shaffer put away the cloth. He then took out a protective talisman and gave it to Kendrick, "Wish you all safe and sound!"
Kendrick took the protective talisman, "Thank you!"
Mr. Shaffer stared at Kendrick. At that moment, the luck brought him wisdom, and thus, with papers and a pen, he wrote down a word suddenly, "Yi"! Kendrick frowned slightly.
Mr. Shaffer didn't explain it, but just gave him the word.
The word meant "easy" and "change" in Hamgradish.
Did it mean that his future path in life would become smooth and easy without many difficulties, or that there had been some changes around him?
Or both!
Natalie made a video call to Kendrick in the evening.
Her face just appeared on the screen as he answered the call.
"Here suddenly comes your little darling!"
She raised her fingers on her head like rabbit ears.
Kendrick just smiled.
He didn't know how to get on with women, and often kept a distance from them throughout.
He was always a bit inexperienced when he faced Natalie.
"Did you have a meeting today? Or have some rest?" She asked him eagerly.
"I didn't have meetings today."
He didn't rest either.
He had spent an afternoon going to the temple to pray for her, and got a protective talisman presented by Mr. Shaffer himself. He planned to give it to her when he went back.
But now he would have to keep quiet about it.
"Have you had dinner yet?"
She had asked him to eat regularly before he left. As she knew busy schedule trips often made businessmen have irregular meals, she nagged a lot about it.
"I have." He nodded.
At that moment, however, Nigel swiped the card and came in, shouting, "Mr. Ramsey, the delivery arrives. Well, the hotel is a bit remote and I can't find much delicious food as it is rather late at the moment. We'll have to make do. Well, I'll unpack the take-out box first."
They had dealt with work in the hotel since they came back from the mountain.
It was 9 o'clock in the twinkling of an eye.
Kendrick put his hand to his forehead with a sense of helplessness.
"You didn't eat any food?" A girl's delicate voice came from the speaker, "How dare you lie to me!"
Kendrick glanced at Nigel.
Nigel was so frightened that his legs shook.
He now started to know that he had said something wrong.
"Supper!" He said loudly, "We're having supper!"
Natalie thought that she was not a fool at all.
"Let me see what the food is?"
Obediently, Nigel handed over the packed lunch box and said, "Chicken porridge, fried noodles and salad."
It was rather simple.
But that was the meal on the business trip.
Kendrick was not someone who had high standards for meals. He often forgot to eat and sleep when he worked, so naturally he didn't mind the food at all.
"All right. Enjoy your meal then!" She suddenly raised her tone after saying that, "And don't have an irregular or unbalanced diet when you are outside, get it?" Nigel glanced at Kendrick's face secretly.
Well, it was the first time that Kendrick had been instructed like this.
He nodded, "All right!"
Nigel was thinking, "What? How can he be so obedient?"
The phone was hung up.
Nigel wore a long face and said, "I... I didn't know Mrs. Ramsey was checking!"
She never asked when Kendrick used to be on business trips.
"Is Mrs. Ramsey angry?"
"Mr. Ramsey, then... you won't be scolded when you go back, will you?"
"How about taking photos of everything you will eat tomorrow and sending them to Mrs. Ramsey?"
Nigel kept talking.
Kendrick handed him the noodles in the packing box, "Have some more noodles."
Nigel was just flattered.
He thought that the men in love would indeed become different.
Kendrick even knew how to care about his subordinates.
It would be rather easier to apply for a holiday later, wouldn't it!
"Thank you, Mr. Ramsey. How do you know that I love fried noodles?" asked Nigel.
"..." Kendrick said, "I'm asking you to shut up!"
Even the food couldn't zip Nigel's damned mouth.
Nigel, "o()"
Kendrick did listen to Natalie.
He took a photo of breakfast for Natalie when he got up early in the morning.
And he added a message.
It showed that he had a regular diet and a full intake of all the nutrient elements.
Natalie was sitting on the bed. As she saw the message on her phone, her heart melted involuntarily.
He did take what she had said to his heart.
Although he didn't like to talk a lot, he always proved it with actions.
It was nice to be valued.
She cupped her chin, with a faint smile playing round her lips.
She had just sat there for a long time. It seemed that she had thought of something, and she thus kept smiling.
She stopped until her phone beeped.
She picked it up and had a look.
It was Nora's message, saying the time and place.
Nora wanted to meet her.
Natalie frowned and pursed her thin lips.
Damn!
