In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 132

Suddenly, I look at Donny with horror.

“Look at you. I am not going to eat you. Don't worry, I'm a gentleman.”

Donny smiles at me, which eases the awkward atmosphere.

Steven Song cannot help but tease, “Do you think Donny is like someone who is obsessed with sex?”

He is talking about Frances Louis.

I have offended Frances Louis, and I must be careful to others.

It is enough for me to jump in this abyss for once.

“I just want you to take me out, have a nice meal with me, go to the shopping mall or something like that. Because I don't have many friends here. The only one I know is Steven Song. He's a man and I don't want to go out with him. I wonder if you'd like to be my guide?”

Donny tilts his head and stares at me with his green eyes. His eyes are full of sincerity that I am completely overwhelmed.

Besides, by shopping with him, I can definitely learn something.

“Of course, I’d love to, but I have to work now.” I say honestly.

“That’s easy. Steven Song, you would allow her to take a half day off, right?” says Donny, winking at Steven Song.

Steven Song shrugs his shoulders and curls his lips, “you’ve already asked my permission, how could I refuse you? It's two hours till the end of the work anyway, so you guys go ahead.”

Donny and I walk out of the office in full view, and as we pass the design department, I feel Nicole Snow's malevolent gaze, which is completely different and more horrible from the former one which is full of grudge.

“Donny, do you know how much trouble I'm going to get into by walking out with you like this?” My lips move and I lower my voice to him. I truly feel that I have unspeakable bitterness.

I feel wronged that I've become an enemy of women when I've done nothing in the company.

“I see.” Donny stops, and his face, which has been kindly, turns grim at once!

“Are you a wooden head? What I said is so simple, why don’t you understand? Just do what Mr. Song says and record everything you need to buy! You're not exactly the most beautiful woman in the world, and you're trying to get me to be nice to you with your beauty? But only if you can understand human language! You're so stupid, I don't know how you got into the company! If Steven Song hadn't said you were the most useless person in the company and made you do the grunt work, I wouldn't have let you follow me!”

I am stunned by his incessant talking.

I know Donny’s sharp tongue, which is as famous as his reputation.

But it still makes me freeze when I hear him scolding me in English viciously.

If I don’t know he is acting, I would be really embarrassed.

The good news is that his acting works, and the group of people who were jealous of me just now start to snicker.

In the midst of everyone's disdainful gazes, I walk out of the company with satisfaction.

Only after I get out the door of the company, I say gratefully to Donny, “Thank you for helping me out. Otherwise, in the future, I guess my life would have been even worse than before. However, you're really good at scolding people.”

“I don’t have other choices. I have to be picky to work in this industry. I'm a hothead, and if people don't meet my expectations, I get mad.”

Donny says with a smile, then he drives the car here.

“Where do you want to go for dinner?” I ask.

“Any recommendation?”

“Well, it depends on what type of food you like,” I say.

Donny turns around, looks at me and says, “From what I know, the greasy spoon will have much better food than the fancy restaurants. I am not particular about the surroundings of a restaurant, so you can just find some simple restaurants. That will be good.”

Now that he’s said that, it would be a lot easier.

I might not know where the fancy restaurant is. But as a poor working person, I know quite a few of greasy spoons.

“Then let's go to the Second Middle School. There is a lot of delicious food around there.”

Donny nods and drives to the Second Middle School.
