Come With Me novel Chapter 49

As the old lady said, she looked at Robbie who was sitting in the distance. "Forget it. Their business is not like us. But this man often comes to see you. I don't believe that someone who is not interested in you will have the spare time to put it on you. I think he is excellent in every aspect. I think you are a good child. I advise you to hold this chance when you can. Love is a temporary impulse. It's hard to tell how long you can hold on. At least one day when you can't go on, you have much more things than you lost. "

I pursed my lips and smiled helplessly. This old lady wanted to set us up every time she saw Robbie. But only the two of us know that, it would never be possible.

From time to time, I would glance at him, who was still sitting there without moving. But whenever I looked at him, I would see that he would look at the big screen just now.

Even if there was no longer Michelle.

When Robbie felt my eyes, he would drop his eyelids naturally. Then he continued to check his phone.

When I finished handing out leaflets, I walked up to Robbie. "Today's work is over. We can go now. What do you want to eat?"

Looking up at me, Robbie continued, "didn't you ask me out for dinner? Why do you ask me? "

"I've never been to a restaurant before, nor have I paid a bill. I don't know where I can go. I don't know where the food is cheap and delicious."

It's a little embarrassing to say the word "cheap". Anyway, even though I were a vain woman, I won't pretend to be generous in front of Robbie.

Robbie's eyes blinked and he stood up. "Well, since you don't have much money and you owe me, let's go for a big meal."

I thought what Robbie was referring to was really a big meal, but it never occurred to me that he would refer to food stalls.

"Are you sure you want to choose this restaurant?"

"When I was a child, my mother didn't allow me to eat street food. At that time, I was obedient and curious, but I never tried it. Now that you are poor, I am still curious, we can try it. But I don't want to eat here."

I didn't get his point when Robbie asked the owner of the restaurant for a menu and ordered many kebabs to pack and take away. Then he told me to wait here while he went to a nearby convenience store.

Then Robbie walked out of the store, holding some cans of beer.

"Are you saving money for me?"

"Don't forget to give me the reimbursement."

I couldn't help but look at Robbie and burst into laughter. "Aren't you afraid that I will think you're narrow-minded if you speak like this?"

"No matter how rich you are, the money won't come so easily. Besides, your treat isn't mine."

As soon as the restaurant owner had roasted our food, Robbie asked me to go with him.

I followed Robbie all the way into a building. Although it was not completely dark, there was few people in this building. Only a few lights were on in a few absence.

I didn't ask him where he took me. I followed him with trust until they were at the terrace on the top of the building.

Standing on the edge of the tall building, I could see everything clearly.

"It's really a good place. How did you find this place?"

"I happened to find that. I like to come here when I was in a bad mood."

Robbie put the beer on the fence near the edge of the rooftop and then sat down on the edge.

I wouldn't have dared to sit there if there wasn't a rooftop outside the fence.

I sat side by side with Robbie as he did and put the food in my hands between us.

I always thought that the shot like drinking and barbecue would never appear in people like Robbie, but it happened that this shot was on.

"Why do you have a friend of police?"

"You mean Vann? We were classmates when we were in middle school. Later when we entered the college, he chose a police school. I was admitted to this school too, but my father changed my choice to the one he wanted instead of me. "

Robbie took a sip of the beer. "When I got the offer, I was dumbfounded, or more precisely, insane. But my father is the head of our family. No matter how you want to defy, it's against the rules."

"What about your father? I had come to the Luo family for a long time, but I haven't seen him. "

"He had been living abroad in the past few years and seldom came back. He told us that he was busy with his overseas business. In fact, we all know that he was out with his mistress and enjoyed his romantic affairs."

"It turns out your mother is a poor woman,"

Robbie opened another can of beer and put it in my hand. "How can you refuse to drink when you invite someone to drink?"

In fact, both of us deliberately avoid those unhappy topics, but we still accidentally talked about them.

Robbie bumped on my wine and took a long drink.

"My mom has thought it through. She always says that it's enough for her to have us three, but I know that she's not as relaxed as she said."

Robbie looked at me. "What about you? Where's your father? "

"When I was a child, he eloped with another woman. I also had a brother. Since he was a boy, my grandparents took him away and raised him up."

"Did you see them again?"

I shook my head, "no, no one came to find me again and no one remembered me. I think they should have forgotten me."

"It's hard to imagine how you have survived all these years."

"I don't dare to recall anything now. It seems to be something long time ago, or yesterday, or a nightmare. But when I wake up, I can still sit here drinking and barbecue."

Robbie and I smiled at each other, clinked glasses and took a swig.

Robbie was silent for a minute, and then he said to me suddenly, "Rogelio can walk on his own. He is recovering the ability that many normal people should have. It won't be long before he can make no difference from a normal person. "

I looked at Robbie, and he also looked at me. I can't understand why he suddenly mentioned this topic, because his eyes are not clear.

"Good news for me, but for you?"

With a snort, Robbie asked, "do you think that I will hope my brother never wake up because of a woman?"

"Sorry, I shouldn't ask this question, but I still want to know why you wanted me to marry Rogelio."

Robbie's hand unconsciously gave the can a hard squeeze. "Because he needs a woman to take care of him."

"Is that all?"
