âThat is great.â Waylon was addicted to this pickled cucumber as he ate a few pieces in a row.
I never expected a folk dish to be so delicious.
After supper, Doris cleaned the tablewares and the table, washed her hand, and took off her apron.
She put a cup of water on the tea table in the living room for Waylon, âWhy donât you take a nap on the sofa? If anything happens to Nessa, Iâll wake you.â
âNap after a meal?â Waylon said, âAre you asking me to gain fat?â
âThenâ¦â Doris said, âWhat about having a stroll downstairs?â
Waylon nodded, âThat is fine too.â
âHow about I accompany you?â Doris said, âIf you wander around alone, the security might think youâre up to something.â
âOkay.â Waylon said, âItâs truly strange to walk alone.â
Doris went back to her room to get a thin sweater jacket and told Mrs. Flores to watch Nessa.
Waylon had already walked to the porch to put on his shoes. Doris asked him, âWhere is your jacket?â
âIn my car.â Waylon said, âI donât like bringing it around.â
When he came, he was anxious about the kid. He felt hot wearing the suit jacket.
âThen wear it when we get down.â Doris said, âThe night breeze is quite cold.â
They walked out and went downstairs through the lift.
The Maybach was parked in the open parking space not far away. Waylon unlocked the car with the remote control.
Doris was closer to the car, so she went to get the suit jacket for him from the co-driver seat.
She flicked open the suit jacket and covered it for him from the side.
Dons was shorter than Waylon, so she had to tiptoe to put it on But she lost her balance and fell forward.
Waylon reached out his arm to catch her in time.
Doris nearly fell into his embrace.
âSorry.â Doris felt a little embarrassed, âI lost my footing.â
âI didnât blame you.â Waylon twitched his mouth, âWhy are you being nervous?â
Doris thought. Am I not afraid that you will criticize me?
However, Waylon didnât say anything surprising.
With a distance of one meter between them, they walked a lap along the wooded path within. the community.
Finally, they sat down on the bench at the basketball court.
Waylon took out a cigarette box from his suit pocket. A small and exquisite cigarette popped out. The cigarette was wrapped with gold foil.
Doris was surprised, âMr. Waylon, you smoke too?â
âRarely.â Waylon said, âI donât crave smoking. I only do it for social engagement.â
âThis cigarette isnât cheap, right?â Doris asked, but then she felt she was asking the obvious.
Itâs already rare that Mr. Waylon is smoking. How can he smoke a cheap cigarette? about two hundred dollars per cigarette.â Waylon said.
Doris was speechless, ââ¦â Two hundred dollars per cigarette. This is literally smoking money!
As they spoke, Waylon lit up the cigarette.
He felt the direction of the night breeze, then he sat on the other side of Doris.
Doris later understood that he was afraid that the smoke would choke her.
âWhat do you think about Daniel?â Waylon blew out a smoke ring and asked suddenly âHuh?â Doris was stunned, then she tilted her head at him. âWhy are you asking this?â
âJust curious Waylon said faintly, âI can see that Daniel has intentions for you.â
Dons frowned. Intentions? You mean 1le has a crush on me?â
âAnyone can tell that Waylon blew another puff of smoke His handsome face was blurred in the smoke.
âHehe.â Doris laughed. âThen I can only disappoint him.â
âWhat do you mean?â Waylon looked at her, âYou donât like him? Daniel is a nice guy. In terms of family background and looks, he is considered above average. When it comes to the choice of partner, isnât someone like him a great choice?â
