Chapter 927
Emily looked at the clock hung on the wall.
The pointer showed that it was almost nine o''clock in the evening. She missed the meeting without
telling Calvin the reason. He must be very anxious now. However, she was trapped here and
couldn''t go back!
At this moment, Emily was still thinking about calling Calvin or her aunt to tell them her situation
here...
"Mister, how far is the supermarket from here?" She asked hurriedly.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man scratched his head and said, "It''s not far away. It is only a walk
of few minutes. You should have passed by it when you came, but it''s closed at this time. We have
to wait until tomorrow!"
After hearing that, Emily frowned.
Unlike the city, there was no nightlife in the vige, and the temperature in the northern part of the
city was low. Almost every family went to sleep after dark. When they entered the vige at that
time, the supermarket indeed was closed.
When she opened her mouth, the middle-aged man seemed to have already known what she
wanted to ask and said, "Our neighbor has a phone, but it''ste now. I would be embarrassed to
knock on their door now!"
Emily raised her hand and pressed the space between her eyebrows, knowing that she had to give
up.
"Do I really need to stay here tonight?"
In desperation, it seemed it was the only choice Emily had. She sighed for failing to hold the
meeting between the two families. Without her, it would be impossible to carry it out. However, it
was useless to think too much now. Everything would have to wait until tomorrow to be settled!
Emily helped to carry the dishes to the kitchen. When the middle-aged woman saw her, she
hurriedly said, "Kid, put it there. Let me wash them!"
"It''s okay!" Emily shook her head with a smile.
The middle-aged couple let them in their house and gave them food out of kindness. It was only
reasonable for them to help wash the dishes. Moreover, there only a few tablewares that they used
just now.
The middle-aged woman smiled and helped her clean. After that, she handed over a towel and said,
"Girl, you''re so lucky!"
"Huh?" Emily did not understand.
The middle-aged woman came to her side and said with a bigger smile, "Haha, I saw what
happened! Your husband is like mine. Every meal, my husband would let me have thest piece of
meat! You have such a good husband. Doesn''t it mean that you are blessed?"
Emily was stunned.
Knowing that the middle-aged woman had misunderstood, she moved her lips and wanted to
exin. But before she could make a sound, the middle-aged woman was already walking out of
the kitchen, saying, "My old man is showing the pictures again. He doesn''t feel ashamed!"
Although her tone sounded like she wasining, her face had an unconceble smile.
Emily was a little curious, so she followed behind her.
Simon and the middle-aged man were sitting in a chair in the living room, looking through an album
made of elk paper. Inside the album, there were some old photos. The middle-aged man was
talking excitedly about the photos.
Emily walked over, feeling attracted by the photo album. She looked through it with Simon and
couldn''t help but ask, "Madam, are these photos of you when you were young?"
"That''s right!" The middle-aged man nodded with a smile.
The middle-aged woman was also smiling. She touched her face with both hands and said, "I was
young. But now, I am old with wrinkles all over my face!"
"It''s okay, I have more wrinkles than you!" The middle-aged man said hurriedly.
Looking at the old couple, Emily smiled. She pointed at one of the photos and asked, "Mister, were
you two getting married?"
Different from the ck and white photos before, that photo was colored, looking quite nostalgic.
There were a lot of people in it, and everyone was wearing flowers on their chests and toasting
each other.
The middle-aged man was also recalling his memories andughed, "Well, at that time, a wedding
was not as grand as one now. We did not go to a church and wear wedding dresses. Our wedding
was very simple. We wore festive new clothes, bowed to heaven and earth, and had a small party in
the yard to celebrate!"
"That''s good. It''s enviable!" Simonughed in a low voice.
"Youngd, what''s there to be envious of?!" The middle-aged man asked in confusion.
Emily couldn''t help looking over and saw Simon was still staring at the photo. Simon said in a faint
voice, "We''ve been married for four years, but we haven''t had a wedding yet."
"..." Emily slowly pursed her lips.
"You young people can have a wedding whenever you want, or you can have a wedding trip!" The
middle-aged man didn''t feel the silent atmosphere between Simon and Emily, thinking that they
didn''t have a wedding because they were busy as young people. He didn''t pay too much attention
to it and continued, "The only thing I want to do for my wife now is taking her to a beautiful ce to
have a honeymoon!"
The middle-aged woman looked at the clock. Fearing that the middle-aged man would dash along,
she urged, "It''s gettingte. Let them rest!"
After closing the album, the middle-aged woman led Emily and Simon to a small bedroom in the
innermost of the house.

When Emily pushed the door open, went into the room, and saw that the lights were on, she
suddenly realized something important!
The middle-aged woman took out the nkets and pillows from the cab and turned to them,
"This is my son''s room. He hasn''t been back since he went to university. Usually, we put things in
his room.
Fortunately, I often clean it. You can sleep directly!"
Emily''s eyes opened wide.
"Simon and I... need to sleep in the same room?"
"Madam, are there any other rooms in your house?" Emily asked hurriedly.
"No. We have only two bedrooms!" The middle-aged woman shook her head and exined, "When
you came here, you should have noticed it. The house is not very spacious. One bedroom is for me
and my husband, and the other is for my son! Because my son was the only one who lived in this
room, the bed is slightly smaller. I hope you two wouldn''t mind it!"
Emily licked her lips. Before she could organize her words, Simon said, "Not at all. Thank you!"
"Then I will let you rest!" After finishing her words, the middle-aged woman turned around, walked
out of the room, and closed the door for them.
In the small room of about ten square meters, they were alone, with the warm yellow light swaying
down from the ceiling.
Emily looked away from the closed door to the nket and two pillows on the heated bed. She
licked her lips again, cleared her throat, and asked hesitantly, "Simon, how... do we sleep?"
"How do we sleep?" Simon asked backzily.
Emily walked to the bedside with her hands in her pocket and sat directly on it. With a straight face,
she said, "There''s only one bed here!"
Emily bit her lip.
Simon raised his hand and unbuttoned the cor of his shirt. After that, his sexy corbone was
shown. He looked at Emily and said, "What are you doing? Go to bed and sleep!"
