âYouâ¦â
âIâm sorry, I did some basic research on you. After all, there are some basic facts about you that I need to be aware of if weâre really going to date,â said Brian.
Valda Theller was silent. âSo, he knows all my basic information? Is that why he could call out my name in front of Raymond Bowman?â
âWho the hell are you?â Valda Theller asked.
She recognized the logo of the car they were in. It was a Cayenne, which was not cheap. It was not something ordinary working-class people could afford.
He managed to find out all her basic information in only one day after she agreed to be his girlfriend.
She could tell he was no ordinary man.
âBrian,â he said.
âHow do I spell that?â
âG-U-L-I-C-H-E-N,â he said.
âSounds like a nice name,â she muttered.
Brian glanced at the person next to him. Judging from her expression, she must have never heard of the name.
âYou know what? The surname Hart is one of the top ten surnames for male protagonists in romance novels,â she thought of a post she had seen before and said.
âSurnames for male protagonists?â He was slightly surprised.
âYes, many writers like to give their male protagonists the surname Hart,â she said.
There was a little twinkle in his eye. âMale protagonistsâ surname? But Iâll only be a supporting role in Graceâs story!
There was a sudden silence in the car, and a depressing atmosphere spread.
âDid I⦠say the wrong thing?â Valda Theller asked.
âNo.â He gave a faint smile.
Valda Theller hesitated slightly before saying, âDo you really want to date me?â
âDid you think I was joking yesterday?â he asked.
âBut I donât know anything about you!â she said.
âBrian, project leader. I live in Emerald City and am the only child in my family. My parents are still alive and healthyâ¦â He introduced himself simply without any superfluous details.
Valda Theller listened carefully and realized the car had stopped at a restaurantâs entrance when he was done.
speaking.
âYou didnât seem to eat much just now. Letâs eat here. The food in this restaurant is pretty delicious,â said Brian.
âOkay, sure,â replied Valda Theller as she followed Brian out of the car.
The restaurant manager evidently knew Brian. As soon as they saw Brian, they approached him passionately and said, âMr. Hart, you came. Do you want the same private room?â
âYeah, give me the same private room,â said Brian.
The manager led the way. Once Valda Theller followed Brian into the private room, she realized it was large. Besides the dining table, there was also a couch, coffee table, pool table, electronic screen, and so on. It was enough to hold a small party.
When she opened the menu and looked at the food, the prices stated almost shocked her so much that she did not have the heart to order anything.
