Purchased A Mr. Right

Chapter 86

Wendy suspected that she had an illusion.

She blinked her eyes. The tall figure was still there, and his eyes were still fixed on her.

Something flashed across her head.

She walked to him in a daze and pointed at the man who appeared suddenly, "You..."

"Are you silly?" The corner of Charlie's lips twitched slightly when he saw the silly look on her face.

Wendy nodded and shook her head fiercely the next second.

She was in an embarrassing look and asked, "Why are you here?"

No wonder she was surprised, Charlie appeared suddenly and he was so incompatible with the surroundings here.

Grandma came out of the house with tea in her hand. She waved to Wendy and said, "Silly girl, what are you doing there? Take Charlie in!"

"Okay!" Wendy answered.

As soon as they entered the house, grandma asked her to prepare some tea.

Wendy brought them some hot tea. Her eyes were unable to move away from him, "When did you arrive?"

He was still in a black hand-made suit as usual. His sleeves were very neat and tidy. There were two cufflinks inlaid with red agate on it. It seemed that he had just finished a meeting.

"Just arrived," Charlie replied indifferently.

"It hasn't been long since you left, and Charlie arrived. I planned to call you!" Grandma added. When she looked at Charlie, she showed a bigger smile, "By the way, Charlie, you haven't had breakfast, have you? Let's eat together!"

Unlike the city, the food in the countryside was quite simple. The noodles were cooked with egg soup, which was made in a big iron pot. Most people from cities didn't get used to eating this kind of food.

"Charlie, let’s start, or it's getting cold!"

Grandma had already pushed the bowl and chopsticks to Charlie with smiling eyes.

Wendy was putting some pickles on the table, which were given by a neighbor. She looked at Charlie nervously.

He lowered his head and said, "Thank you." Then he picked up the chopsticks and held the bowls to eat.

Just like that time when they went to the food market, he frowned and was not used to it, but he didn't complain or show any dislike.

Wendy asked tentatively, "If you don’t like it, can I get you a glass of milk?"

"No need." Charlie shook his head.

Then under grandma's smiling gaze, he ate all the noodles.

After breakfast, Wendy cleaned up the dishes. Then, she was called to the room by grandma. Grandma gave her some money and told her to buy more food later. She didn’t take the money, but

grandma insisted on giving to her.

Wendy understood grandma’s intentions and did refuse again.

When she stepped out of the yard, Charlie followed her and said, "I'll go with you."

"You needn't..." Wendy looked at the car key in his hand.

"Get in the car!" Charlie said in a deep voice. He sat in and started the engine.

Wendy had no choice but to follow him.

The grocery was not far away from their home. A few minutes later, the Land Rover stopped in front of a second-floor building at the entrance of the village. There was signage that showed it was a grocery. Some villagers came out with vegetables or meat.

"Ahem!" Wendy touched her nose to relieve the awkwardness, "There are not so many people live here, so the grocery is nearby!"

Charlie swallowed, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face.

Wendy took a basket and said to him when she got off the car, "Wait for me here!"

Perhaps because he had just done something embarrassing, Charlie did not refuse. Wendy bought a lot of food according to grandma's request, and the basket was almost full. When she opened the car door, she found Charlie was lying on the seat and closed his eyes.

The sound of closing the door woke him up. Then, he opened his eyes slowly.

Wendy noticed the exhaustion on his face and asked, "Didn't you have a good rest, right?"

"No," Charlie answered. He twitched his lips and said, "I worked late last night, and I drove here overnight after that."

Wendy clenched her hand that hid at one side of her leg.

It would take at least six or seven hours to drive here from Ice city, and the road was rugged, which meant that he had hardly closed his eyes last night...

Wendy held her breath for a while and asked again, "Why are you here..."

Charlie didn't reply immediately. Instead, he extended his hand towards her.

His fingers touched her collarbone peeking out from her collar, which made her feel itchy. Next, he kissed her.

His kiss was just right, making her feel comfortable.

Wendy involuntarily cooperated with him. When she was released, she still slightly opened her mouth with dazed eyes.

Charlie seemed to be amused by her silly look. He curled up his lips and could not help kissing her again. Then, he said in a hoarse voice, "Because I miss you, I want you."

After hearing his words, a strange feeling appeared in Wendy’s heart.

With Charlie's Adam's apple rolling, the atmosphere in the car seemed to become romantic.

Wendy was so nervous that her heart beat fast. If the tricycle behind them didn't shoot at them, he would press on her body...

Charlie had lunch and dinner with them.

It was getting dark outside, but he was still sitting in a chair and drinking tea.

Wendy bit her lips and asked, "You're not going back?"

"Grandma just said it was too late. Driving a car at night is very dangerous. She asked me to stay." Charlie raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's hard to refuse her kindness."

Wendy was speechless.

The house was small with only two rooms. She slept in one, and grandma in another. There was not even a sofa in the living room, only three wooden chairs. Therefore, she had to sleep with grandma, and Charlie would sleep in her room.

Wendy came in with a quilt and looked around the shabby room. She pursed her lips like a child and asked, "Are you sure... you want to sleep here tonight?"

Although he had been here for a whole day, she still felt that it was not real. It was already shocking for a person like him to appear in the countryside, but now he still wanted to sleep here?

"Yes," Charlie replied.

Wendy had to make the bed for him silently.

There was a big heatable brick bed in her grandma's room, so they would not be too crowded.

After turning off the light, Wendy didn't fall asleep in a long time. However, she didn't dare to move, for fear of disturbing grandma, so she leaned against the wall.

When she was about to become stiff, she finally felt a little sleepy.

As she closed her eyes, the phone screen suddenly lit up.

Wendy covered the screen with a palm, and found three words on it, "Have you slept?"
