Purchased A Mr. Right

It seemed that Charlie Hogg had never been to a place like here.

He was in a hand-made suit, and he should be in a supermarket where sold imported goods. However, he appeared in such a crowded and noisy place, which was a sharp contrast to him.

Wendy Lim noticed that he frowned when he entered, but he didn't say anything. He didn't show any complaints or dislikes. He took her hand and walked calmly.

He was holding her hand tightly all the way.

She was protected behind him. He seemed to cooperate with her paces, so he slowed down deliberately.

It had been a long time since someone protected her like this...

They picked a new and less crowded stall. Wendy Lim selected ingredients according to what she wanted to cook later.

She was good at selecting ingredients. When she was a little girl, she often went to the market at the entrance of an alley with her grandmother to buy vegetables in the morning. She knew how to find the best vegetables and meat.

When she put the selected vegetables into a plastic bag and stood up, she found that Charlie Hogg's eyes were locked on her face. She looked away shyly and said, "Well, let's buy these first! The water spinach was not very good. We can buy some from other stalls..."

Charlie Hogg took over the plastic bag and handed it to the peddler.

"14.8 dollars in total!"

He took out a hundred bills from his wallet, but the peddler did not take it over. "Sir, do you have any change?"

Charlie Hogg frowned and looked at the bills in his wallet. No change there.

"I'll pay!" Wendy Lim lowered her head and rummaged her bag.

"No!" Charlie Hogg grabbed her hand and frowned deeper. He handed over the one hundred bill to the peddler and said with a persistent attitude, "I don't have any change."

The peddler had no choice but to take the bill and give him back a pile of change.

When they about to leave, Wendy Lim noticed that there was a post standing beside a yogurt stall. She asked Charlie Hogg to wait for a moment and walked over.

When she came back with her mobile phone, Charlie Hogg asked with a gloomy look, "What did you talking about with the man who sells yogurt? And why do you laugh?"

"I didn't..." Wendy Lim looked confused.

"Did you add him to your WeChat?" Charlie Hogg narrowed his eyes. Wendy Lim was speechless. She raised the yogurt in her hand and explained, "I scanned the QR code so I could get a yogurt for free..." Charlie Hogg's expression released, but the corners of his mouth were still tight.

"Don't flirt with other men in the future!"

"..." A male chauvinist.

"You are not allowed to give your contacts to other men casually either!"

"..." Mansplaining.

Charlie Hogg took her hand again and squeezed it tightly, "Are you bad-mouthing me in your mind?"

"Ahem!" Wendy Lim shook her head in a hurry and smiled awkwardly, "No..."

Why did this man always know what she was thinking?

Wendy Lim felt a cold spreading alone her spine and changed the topic, "There was seafood selling in the front. Do you want to buy some braised shrimps?"

When they arrived at the seafood stall, she took the clip and selected shrimps carefully.

"Could you please give me a better price?"

"Lady, thirty-nine, it's not expensive. All alive!" "Thirty-five, ok?"

"Sorry, I'll lose the money at this price!"

Wendy Lim pretended to put the shrimps back, "They're dying, and they're so many stalls that sell seafood. Then I'll go somewhere else to have a "Wait a moment!" Seeing that she was leaving, the peddler hurriedly stopped her and compromised, "Ok lady, you have selected for a long time. I'll come down for three dollars. Thirty-six!"

"All right!" Wendy Lim reluctantly nodded.

When the peddler turned around to weigh the shrimps, she showed a triumphant smile and raised her eyebrows to the man next to her.

Charlie Hogg swallowed.

The peddler handed the change to Charlie Hogg and said with a smile, "Sir, you're really lucky to have a good wife!"

Wendy Lim was stunned.

Realizing that the peddler had misunderstood their relationship, she waved her hand awkwardly and said, "Uh, we aren't..." "Let's go!"

Charlie Hogg suddenly took her hand.

Wendy Lim was still thinking about the peddler's words as they walked back from the end of the market.

It seemed that except for some aunties with a basket in their hands, other people who came here were couples. She secretly looked at the man next to her. Their hands were interlaced, and the foods they bought were all carried by him. They really looked like a couple.

"The seafood peddler has misunderstood our relationship, so he said that..." Charlie Hogg glanced at her and said, "It's enough if you know it clearly."

That's right.

Wendy Lim nodded, but she felt a little depressed for some reason.

"Is there anything else you want to buy?"

"No, it's enough."

Charlie Hogg nodded and led her to the exit.

Because there are so many stalls, it was a little crowded at the exit. Wendy Lim felt that someone had knocked her. She didn't pay much attention to it at first. But later, she felt something slid down her shoulder, and then she shouted, "Ah! Robbing. My bag!"

Outside the food market, there was indeed a man was running away.

When Wendy Lim saw him, she immediately started to chase after him.

People on both sides were knocked away by her. The only thing she wanted to do was to take back her bag.

In fact, there were not many things in it, including a package of tissue, a few cashes, and a knife. The reason why she had to chase was that the knife was important to her.

Wendy Lim didn't know where her energy came from, and she kept chasing after him closely.

The robber didn't expect her to chase after him like this. He scolded her a few words and poured out all the things in the bag to the ground, picked up the wallet and ran to another side of the road. When Wendy Lim arrived, the robber had already run to the opposite side of the road.

And her bag was thrown in the middle of the road, and the knife was also there.

Wendy Lim ran to pick them up without thinking more. A car honked the horn at the same time, and she was so scared that she closed her eyes.

"Be careful!"

Someone reached out one hand and grabbed her arm.

Then, a car passed by her closely.

Wendy Lim saw the hilt of the knife was run over by the car twice.

She quickly picked it up. Then, she was pulled back to a safe place by Charlie Hogg, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine..." Wendy Lim shook her head.

Her eyes were filled with despair, not fright. Instead, she stared at the knife in her hand without blinking.

The hilt of the knife had been completely crushed by the car's wheels, and she couldn't feel any frosted feeling when touching it. She touched the hilt gently, and the whole blade exposed.

"Are you crazy? Don't you know that cars run fast on the road?"

Charlie Hogg was furious. If he hadn't caught up with her in time, she would have been sent to the hospital.

How many people would chase after a robber? Especially her bag, which was worn out, was not valuable.

Seeing that she had been lowering her head and staring at the knife in her hand, he was so angry, "For the knife? Is it worth chasing after the robber? Even a fool is smarter than you! Are you out of your mind? Idiot!"

"Throw it into the trash bin! Hurry up!"

Charlie Hogg reached out his hand, intending to take over the knife and throw it.

Wendy Lim avoided his hand quickly, raised her head, and glared at him, "You don't understand"

Charlie Hogg was stunned by her roar.

Even after their first night, when he threw money to her, she was not so furious. She was like an angry lion that dared to shout at him, and her angry eyes were mist, she...

She was crying.
