Chapter 145
Until the end of work, colleagues were still very excited in the office.
Girls were still regretting. They sighed from time to time that they didn''t seize the opportunity to
show themselves in front of the Prince Charming.
Wendy, who got this enviable opportunity, quietly packed up her things and tried to leave with a low
profile.
As soon as she walked out of the office building, there was a car horn.
Wendy saw the white Land Rover on the side of the road at a nce. In the sunset, Charlie''s
profound eyes were looking at her through the windshield and he had been driving toward her.
In order to avoid being seen by her colleagues, she rushed to him.
She opened the door, got in, and fastened the seat belt. A series of actions were done in one
smooth motion.
After the Land Rover entered the traffic stream and Wendy confirmed that she wouldn''t be seen,
she turned her head and asked Charlie, "Why are you still here?"
Charlie nced at her and didn''t want to talk nonsense. He said, "Go to the market and buy some
food. Go home and cook for me."
"Okay." Wendy did not dare to object. Seeing that he was not in a high mood, and she might be the
reason, she decided to obey his order.
They arrived at the market near theirmunity, and there were a lot of people. They were
crowded in a stall in the middle. The boss was busy collecting money, so he had no time to entertain
them. He threw the stic bag to them and let them pack what they want themselves.
Wendy bent down andy prone on the vegetable stall, picking carefully.
If some vegetables were too far away, Charlie would reach out to help.
Charlie''s calm voice covered the noisy sounds of vendors, and he picked up a pepper and asked,
"Would you like some green pepper?"
"Yes." Wendy nodded.
"How about broli?"
"Yes." Wendy nodded again.
"How about pakchoi?"
"Yes." Wendy continued to nod.
She still wanted to go to the front of the dry food stall and buy some rice noodles so that she could
make a steamed Pakchoi with some soy sauce on it, it must be very delicious.
Looking at her, who lowered her head and was lost in thought, Charlie''s eyes shed with cunning.
Suddenly, he picked up green onion and asked, "How about be my girlfriend?"
"..." Wendy bit her lip but did not answer. Charlie threw the green onion away and said in a
somewhat exasperated tone, "You''re not stupid anymore? When did you be smart?"
Wendy clenched her fists. Was she stupid?
However, when she saw his tight lips because he had not achieved his goal, she felt better in her
heart.
In the evening, they went back to Wendy''s home and got four dishes and one soup. Wendy didn''t
make too much meat, but only a dish of fried shrimp.
The two of them did not speak and ate face to face, only with the sound of chopsticks and dishes
gently colliding. When putting down the chopsticks, Charlie looked at her and asked, "What are you
going to do on tomorrow''s weekend?"
"Er..." Wendy blinked her eyes. Obviously, she had not made up her mind yet.
"Do you want to go back to your hometown to see your grandmother?" Charlie raised his eyebrows
and raised an opinion.
"Sure!" Wendy nodded almost without hesitation.
It had been a while since grandma was discharged from the hospital and moved back to the
countryside. Nowadays, they basicallymunicated by phone. Grandma was old and didn''t know
much about smartphones. Only when the children from the neighbor''s house came to her house
that she could temporarily make a video call.
Charlie tapped the clock on his wrist with his index finger and said, "Well, we''ll set off at 9 o''clock
tomorrow morning." Wendy was stunned for a moment, and then she understood the meaning of
this sentence. Was he going to apany her to return to her hometown?
All of a sudden, she was overjoyed.
Seeing that he had already got up and walked to the door, Wendy hurried to follow him to see him
off.

When he was about to close the door, Charlie stopped.
Suddenly, he turned around and stared at her with his dark eyes. He said, "There are only four days
left."
At nine o''clock the next day, the white Land Rover drove out of the city on time.
When Wendy thought that she could meet her grandmother soon in the afternoon, she couldn''t help
feeling excited.
In fact, she wanted to go back to her hometown to visit several times, but her grandmother was
distressed that she had to take the train and did not agree. This time, when she learned that it was
Charlie who drove here, she immediately agreed.
Wendy couldn''t help but look at Charlie next to her, after thinking for a while, she asked, "Charlie,
are you absent from work these two days?"
"I canceled all my schedules these days." Charlie said casually.
"That''ll be too much of a waste to you..." Wendy bit her lip. Charlie''s thin lips curled slightly, and he
said calmly, "It''s okay. I just miss grandma very much."
Wendy nodded. She could easily judge the degree of truth in his words. He had been always very
kind to her grandmother, even in the previous time, he was very patient and careful to that olddy.
When they was about to leave in the morning, she saw plenty of nutrients in the trunk.
The decision madest night was so sudden that she didn''t have time to think too much. She didn''t
expect that Charlie had prepared everything.
Charlie...
Before he found that she was peeking at him, Wendy hurriedly looked away and pretended to look
at the scenery outside the window.
When they arrived at the charge counter, Charlie slowed down the car and waited in line.
The mobile phone in Wendy''s bag vibrated, so she took it out to have a check. It was a message
from his best friend, Emily.
"Wendy, be careful!"
Just when she was wondering what this sentence meant, another message came in. "What if Mr.
Hogg parked the car on the road in a barren mountain, stripped you naked, and forced you to be his
girlfriend? When it really happens, no one can help you..."
The more Wendy read, the more she felt cold at the back of his spine.
When she felt something, she was shocked and quickly locked the screen. But it was toote.
Charlie stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and said slowly, "This is a good idea."
"Never think about that..."
Wendy swallowed her saliva and couldn''t help but shrink to the side.
Seeing her nervous face, Charlie reached out his hand and patted her on the head. "Little fool!"
The car in front of them had already left. Charlie started the car to move forward and lowered the
window to get the card.
Wendy''s hair in front of her forehead was all messed up. She looked at the back mirror and tidied
her hair up. When the wind blew in, she was not angry at all. Instead, she felt a trace of sweetness
that she had never felt before.
At about three o''clock in the afternoon, they arrived at their destination.
Wendy jumped out of the car and held her grandmother''s hand in a hurry. Sheined,
"Grandma, why are you standing outside?"
"It''s not cold. Besides, I haven''t been out for a long time!" Grandma said with a smile. Her face was
a little flushed by the wind, but it could not influence her good mood. She went forward and grabbed
Charlie behind her. "Charlie, let''s get in the house!"
"Okay, grandma." Charlie nodded.
One on the left and the other on the right, they two walked through the yard with grandmother in
their arms.
They hadn''t seen each other for a long time, so they naturally had a lot to say. Until evening,
grandma was still sitting on the chair and didn''t move a ce. She concerned them very much so
she asked a lot. The whole house was filled with the tender and warmughter of this olddy.
After dinner in the evening, Wendy washed some fruit.
The sky outside was getting darker and darker.
After serving grandma to eat some Kiwi fruit, she picked up an apple. At this moment, Charlie
suddenly ask, "How do we sleep at night?"
