Chapter 66 Take What We Need
Chapter 66 Take What We Need
Back at the villa, Suny was exhausted.
She didn't know why she was so tired, probably because it was really distressing to run into Austin
again and again.
"M, help me put a jar of water on."
The alcohol had made her not very sober, and she sat for a while before Suny opened her mouth and
asked M to help put the water on.
The screen of her mobile phone on the sofa lit up, Suny inclined her head to glance at it and found that
it was a message from Steven.
Suny tapped in and replied, "Just got home."
Steven replied, "Want late night snack?"
To be honest, she really hadn't eaten much.
"I'm a bit tired."
That was really a polite refusal.
"How about home delivery?"
Seeing this reply, Suny was stunned: "Then I won't aggravate my stomach."
Steven sent an emoji over, "Arriving in thirty minutes."
Seeing that, Suny couldn't help but smile, "Okay."
Steven sent another emoji over, but Suny didn't reply again.
The dress she was wearing looked good, but it was slimming and demanding on one's figure.
Suny hadn't eaten much all night and was afraid that her belly would accidentally bulge and make a Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
joke.
Before Steven came, she planned to take a bath.
The doorbell rang just as her hair had been blown dry.
Suny turned off the hair dryer, put on her coat and went downstairs to answer the door.
It was a new day in a new year, and it was cold.
Inside the house it was as warm as spring, and as soon as she stepped outside, she shivered.
Rarely was she as slow as she was before, she trotted over and opened the door.
Before Steven even entered, Suny could smell the fragrant barbecue.
She glanced down, "It smells so good."
"I don't know if you like it."
Suny walked ahead and said, "I'm not a picky eater."
As the two entered the villa, Suny took out her spare slippers and sent them to Steven's feet, then went
into the kitchen and brought out plates and chopsticks.
"Have a seat, I've just stewed iced sugar sorbet."
She pointed to the dining chair, and Steven put the things he was carrying on the tabletop, take off his
heavy jacket and scarf and started unpacking the bags.
Winter takeaways were the hardest to keep warm, and barbecues were even harder.
Steven deliberately had them all wrapped in tinfoil, and replaced the normal takeaway boxes with
insulated ones.
The barbecue was still as hot as if it had just come out of the oven after nearly 20 minutes of travel.
Suny came out with iced sugar sorbet, smelling the overflowing aroma, she couldn't help but purse her
lips: "I haven't eaten barbecue for a long time."
"I thought you didn't like it."
Steven took the iced sugar sorbet Suny handed over and smiled.
"I like anything that's tasty."
Suny moved the teapot over, "This is tea."
With that, she poured herself a cup, took a sip, picked a bunch of leeks and looked up at Steven, "I am
going to eat now."
"Okay."
After eating a skewer of grilled leeks, she suddenly thought of something: "There's pineapple beer
inside the fridge, do you want some?"
Steven shook his head, "I don't really like drinking."
Suny raised an eyebrow, "It is rare."
"Personal habits."
Suny smiled, "It's a good habit."
After eating and drinking enough, Suny wiped the oil stains on her lips and took a sip of tea, then
looked at Steven with a smirk, "I guess, you shouldn't just want someone to have a late night snack
with you."
Steven gave a smile, "I do have a request for you."
"I'm all ears."
Suny was generous and direct, Steven was a bit embarrassed: "Well, I took a call tonight."
Suny nodded, but did not open her mouth to interrupt him.
"That phone call was from my mother's best friend, my godmother. My family has been out of the
country for years, but we have quite a lot of contact and bonding with my godmother and her family,
and my godmother can be described as my other mother."
Steven paused here, "But you know, the elders all prefer the younger generation to start a family early.
My mother didn't think much of it two years ago, but when she saw that I was still single, she became a
bit anxious. My godmother has started introducing me to girls now that she knows I'm back in the
country."
"I don't really like elders interfering in my affairs, and I have someone I have a crush on now, so I just
rejected my godmother and told her I had a girlfriend."
When Steven said this, Suny had understood: "You originally thought that things would end here, but
you didn't expect your godmother to tell you that she wanted to meet your girlfriend?"
Steven rubbed his nose: "It's very dramatic, isn't it?"
Suny swirled her glass of water, "Not really."
She said, pausing for a moment, "So, you want me to pretend to be your girlfriend?"
"Yes."
Steven no longer hid his purpose.
Suny looked down at the teacup in front of her, "I'm not very fond of lying."
When Steven heard this, he didn't mind, "It's okay, I know I'm the one imposing."
"But this time it's an exception, because I also have something I want to your help too."
Steven didn't expect that, "What's your problem?"
"It's not really a problem, my divorce, as you know, didn't go very well at first, and now my ex-husband
might be a bit out of his mind, and I want to help him clear his head."
Steven frowned, "He's pestering you?"
"Technically, not really, but I'm not one for trouble. Since you have this need and so do I, then we'll
each take what we need."
Steven looked at Suny, the smile and expression on her face had not changed a single bit, but the
whole aura of her body had been completely different.
Instantly, it was as if the two people had switched from a casual chatting mode between friends to a
business partnership mode.
They were talking about cooperation where each would get what they needed.
Suny at this time had a charm that he had never seen on another woman before.
Steven felt his heart beating fast, and for a moment, he didn't even pay attention to Suny's words.
He extended his hand with a smile, "So, wish we have happy cooperation?"
"Sure."
Suny also curled her lips and smiled, extending her hand to shake his.
Inside the villa was quiet and warm, Steven was reluctant to leave, but he knew that it would be
intrusive to stay any longer.
"It's late, I'll go back first."
Suny looked down at the time, it was indeed late: "Okay."
Steven was about to get up and leave and he suddenly seemed to think of something: "Right, tomorrow
is New Year's Day holiday, my godmother wants me to take my girlfriend to their house for a meal, I
wonder if you?"
Suny was not a squirming person, since she had agreed on the cooperation, she would not refuse
Steven’s reques: "Okay."
"Good, it's dinner, you don't have to get up early tomorrow."
"If you had told me it was lunch, perhaps I would have had to refuse."
Suny watched Steven leave and couldn't help but open her mouth to yawn.
So sleepy.
Go to sleep then.
