Purchased A Mr. Right

In the evening.

Coming out of the office building after work, Wendy saw a familiar figure standing at the door.

The man, who was leaning on the door, walked to her when he noticed her. He was still dressed like a dandy. The neckline of his T-shirt was wide open, and the small jade Buddha pendant hanging on his neck swayed as he moved.

Ewan walked to her and dragged her out in a hurry.

Wendy couldn't get rid of his hand. She was dragged all the way to the revolving door and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Just come with me and you'll know!"

Ewan answered and pushed her into the car.

He didn't tell her where they would go. He stepped the accelerator hard. On the way, he looked at his watch from time to time as if he was in a rush.

When they arrived at the destination, Wendy still looked confused. She was not unfamiliar with this place. She had come to here, the airport hall, a few days ago, but she didn't know why he took her here. There were a lot of people around the exit. Most of them were waiting with many boards in their hands.

Ewan also raised his head and stood there, looking at exit.

The radio reminded a flight from New York had landed. Soon, a crowd of people came out.

Ewan's eyes suddenly fixed on someone, "He's there!"

Wendy looked over and saw a man in a black T-shirt. He was tall and stand straight. There was a black windbreaker on his forearm. He was slowly walking out with a suitcase, as if he was fatigued with the journey.

"Felix, we are here!" Ewan waved his hand.

Felix heard his voice and quickened his pace.

When he was in front of them, Wendy licked her lips, "Hi, Felix..."

Maybe it was because they had seen each other in New York before, she could be calmer when they met again, but she would feel a little stuffy in her heart.

Felix shook his head and sighed helplessly to her, "I have something to do here, so I'm back. I planned to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect Ewan to bring you here!"

"This is the surprise that I give you two!" Ewan raised his eyebrows.

Felix smiled, raised his hand, and bumped lightly with Ewan.

This scene was familiar to Wendy. It would always be put on in the past. Wendy was a little absent-minded, as if nothing had happened and changed...

Ewan suggested, "Let's find something to eat!"

Ewan had booked a table. When they arrived, Wendy noticed that it was the hot pot restaurant that she and Charlie had been to before.

They were only three but Ewan had booked a 10-person private room, which showed that he was really a rich dandy.

The temperature in the room was very low. The soup in pot was made of lycium chinensis and chicken. The waiter served all the dishes, then, left and closed the door.

When Felix picked up the chopsticks, he seemed to think of something, "Wennie, are you familiar with Mr. Hogg?"

Wendy's hands, which held a spoon of sesame paste, trembled.

This was not the first time he had asked this question. He was interrupted last time, but now he changed his way to ask.

"Mr. Hogg?" Ewan interrupted and began to answer on behalf of her, "I know that. Wendy's company has cooperation with the Hogg's Group!"

"Oh, I see." Felix nodded as if he had understood.

"Yes..." Wendy lowered her eyes with a guilty conscience.

As the hot pot boiled, Wendy's phone suddenly rang.

Wendy took it out and found Charlie's name was on the screen. She was so nervous that she almost drop down her chopsticks.

"Wennie, you can answer the phone first." Felix said.

Wendy shook her head, placed it in silence and put back in her bag, "No, I don't know the number." Felix nodded and didn't ask more. He put two pieces of cooked beef on her plate. After finishing eating, Wendy stood up and put the phone in her pocket secretly, "I want to use the toilet!"

After entering one stall and closed the door, Wendy took out her phone.

The three missed calls came from the same person. She swallowed hard and was about to call back. But Charlie called again. He was really stubborn. "... Hello?"

"Why don't you answer the phone!"

As expected, Charlie's tone was bad.

Wendy prevaricated and lied, "I didn't hear... what's wrong?"

"Come to my home," Charlie spoke out four words.

Wendy clenched her hand and said, "I don't feel very well today. I want to have a rest at home..."

"Were you tired last night?" Charlie teased her.

"Well, maybe..." She replied.

"Sucks!" Charlie teased her. After a pause, he asked again, "Are you sure you will not come?"

Wendy answered in a hurry, "I've already been on the bed!"

"OK, forget it." Charlie hung up.

She was afraid that he would call again, so she turned off her phone.

Wendy closed her eyes and lowered her head. Her palms were wet with sweat.

After coming back to the room, Ewan looked at her and frowned, "Wendy, are you okay?"

Wendy shook her head.

Noticing Felix also looked at her, she smiled and said, "I'm fine..."

Wendy didn't know why she lied to Charlie on the phone.

Whether it was her former male colleague or Ewan, she could always be honest in front of him. But when she was with Felix, she didn't dare to tell him the truth. She felt that she cheated him...

Felix took a taxi to send her back.

Ewan drank a little too much. When he came out of the restaurant, he staggered and called the driving service. Felix also drank a lot but better than Ewan, and his eyes were sober. Wendy knew him very well. He had been in the barracks for many years and knew how to discipline himself.

The night wind was cool, and Felix put his coat on her as if he was taking care of a child.

Wendy's heart trembled slightly. She opened her mouth and said, "Felix, in those years, I actually..."

She wanted to tell him that she did not go to the airport that year because her grandmother did not agree. Grandma was so excited that she had a heart attack and was sent to the hospital. In order not to stimulate her grandma again, she had to avoid him from then on.

However, right now, she...

"Let's not talk about the past anymore." Felix interrupted with a smile. His eyes were very gentle.

"I..." Wendy choked with sobs.

She had lots of words wanted to tell him but she didn't know how to say it.

Felix patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't think too much. Go home and have a good sleep."

"Okay." Wendy nodded.

Before she turned around, Felix stopped her again. In the dark, he seemed to have something to say but held back. Finally, he only said one sentence, "Good night, Wennie."

Wendy nodded and replied, "Good night."

Watching the taxi leave, she dragged the coat on her shoulders and walked towards the building.

As soon as she stepped into the corridor, cigarette smell came to her.

Wendy froze. The light of the induction lamp in the corridor was dark, but not darker than his deep eyes. He clenched his teeth hard. He blew out some smoke and said in a gloomy tone, "Did he send you the knife?"
