Chapter 115 I Was Just Joking!
"Oh. Last night you were drunk. You drank a very, very strong cocktail! I..."
Angela was about to finish her sentence before Arvin interrupted her. "Angela, I clearly know how much
I can drink, okay?"
Arvin tested the liquor content in his blood as soon as he arrived at the hospital. There was some
leftover. However, the result didn't elucidate much, so he was still not so sure what was in his system.
"Oh... I put some medicine into the cocktail and you... drank it without hesitation." Angela couldn't stop
him.
"And then?" Arvin asked Angela in a nervous tone.
Angela could hear her heart beating right fast. "Then... I was afraid that you would... blame me after
you woke up... so I sent you to the apartment and left."
... Angela whispered her last sentence, but Arvin heard it very clearly.
'So she left my apartment last night, ' Arvin thought.
"Where did you stay last night? Where did you go today?" Arvin kept asking with his eyes closed.
Since Angela decided to call Arvin, she knew what he would ask and prepared her reasons. "I was
playing games on my phone last night at Nancy's house and today I slept all day at my house."
... Hearing Angela's answer, Arvin felt a sense of disappointment and wondered, 'Why did she have to
leave me alone last night?'
"Hey, big wing, what are you thinking?" Angela asked him as if she didn't know.
Arvin closed his eyes and whispered, "What do you want to eat for dinner this evening?"
"... Whatever you want is okay with me."
"Okay, let's go out for something." Arvin's voice sounded quite gentle.
"Okay!" Hearing Arvin's suggestion, Angela dropped her negative tone. Happiness enveloped her. She
knew that she and Arvin would get along as long as she didn't tell him the truth.
7 p.m. at night
Angela took a deep breath and dragged herself up tiredly towards the elevator.
Downstairs, Arvin was standing beside a Pagani in a black shirt and suit waiting for her.
From her first glance, she felt Arvin was of a different sort tonight.
Arvin! Was! Smoking! ...
Angela was very surprised to see Arvin smoke because she knew him for a long time, but she had
never seen him smoke.
Angela was very sure that Arvin had never smoked before, ever! Besides, she never smelt even the
suggestion of tobacco from him...
Except now...
Arvin looked at his shoes as he leaned against his Pagani, with one hand in his pocket. His other hand
kept slightly touching the cigarette butt until it died out. Then Arvin put out the light and threw it into the
trash beside him.
Only then did Arvin register Angela was there.
He didn't invite her over immediately. Instead he opened the trunk, took a bottle of glacier water and
started to drink it.
Angela gawked at Arvin, pouring water into his mouth to rinse it.
Finally, Arvin threw the empty bottle into trash can.
'That was Zhencang, a famous glacier water brand. Arvin used it to rinse his mouth!' Angela's face
twitched.
Being rich was so good. Angela decided that she still had a lot of research to do to make big money! If
she depended on her income as a nurse in Yao Hospital, she would never be able to afford the lifestyle
Arvin had.
Next, Arvin waved at Angela. Angela concealed her thoughts and walked towards Arvin and called him,
"Big wing!"
Arvin cuddled Angela and kissed her on the lips. They got along like everything was ordinary.
They got in the Pagani and headed for Xinhe Garden to eat western food.
In the western restaurant. Arvin had prebooked the whole restaurant. When they arrived, there were no
other people around.
Six waiters, who were waiting to serve Arvin and Angela, and a beautiful girl, who was playing the
piano pleasantly, were the only other people there.
Angela looked around at her surroundings. If she knew Arvin was going to bring her to such a classy
place, she would have dressed up a bit more.
However, she wore casual clothing, and sat there feeling a little awkward.
She put a piece of beef into her mouth, and started to wonder what style of clothes Arvin liked best.
"What kind of clothes you like for girls, Arvin?"
Arvin, who sat opposite her, didn't tell Angela not to speak while eating this time. He picked up the
tissue on the table and said, seriously, "I don't care what girls wear as long as I like her."
Arvin's answer was perfect. Well, at least, Angela felt happy about it.
"Big wing, you must be good at this game! You may consider being a playboy. You definitely will attract
lots of beautiful girls!" Angela joked. That was true. She were attracted to Arvin. So was everyone.
Hearing her joke, Arvin didn't deny it. Instead he nodded and said, "Okay."
He looked a bit serious. It felt like Arvin wasn't joking.
Angela's hands trembled. She instantly stopped Arvin, "Don't do that! I was just joking."
"Yes." The word seemed like a promise to Angela.
Till now, Angela felt a sense of weirdness. 'Arvin is so different tonight.'
However, she didn't know what Arvin was actually thinking...
"So you smoke now, Arvin?" Angela said, by way of introducing a new topic.
Arvin was a little surprised. He didn't expect Angela to ask him this outright. He took a bite of steak and
a sip of wine before he answered, "Yes." © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
On days when he didn't have a firm foothold on his career, he would smoke to ease the pressure.
However, he hadn't smoked for a long time before tonight.
But the reason he smoked today was not because he was stressed, but vexed...
As for Angela, she heard Arvin said "Yes" again, and felt like the old Arvin showed up again, the Arvin
who didn't pay much attention to her.
'Maybe Arvin isn't talkative because we're eating. Doesn't he obey the rule of no words while eating?'
Thinking of this possibility, Angela sat back, relieved.
After dinner, Arvin and Angela walked out of the restaurant with their fingers clutched. They got in the
car and drove to the river.
"How come you brought me here?" The caresses of a cool breeze played over Angela's face. She felt
comfortable.
Now it was late autumn. Standing on the riverside against the wind was a little chilly. Angela wrapped
herself up with her coat.
Arvin saw this. He instantly opened his suit and covered Angela in his arms, "Hug me, babe."
Earlier at the restaurant, Angela felt a little disappointment due to Arvin's cold attitude, but now, it was
all gone. Angela circled Arvin's back with her arm and leaned against his chest.
"I'll get busy from now on, babe." Arvin's low voice made her head rise to meet it.
Angela nodded while saying, "Okay. I got it."
"I'll have you transferred to the development and research center tomorrow and you can do what you
like to do wholeheartedly." Arvin always would give Angela the best thing as long as he was able to.
However, Angela seemed a little hesitant. "I don't want to go there... I just want to stay in the research
center in your apartment." Angela blurted out her thoughts.
Arvin looked pained when hearing Angela's words. Angela didn't see. "Well, I'm worried that you might
be unsafe alone in the apartment. Besides, I was going to sell my apartment. The research center...
would be torn down. That's why I decided to transfer you to the research and development center. I will
also transfer Nancy there."
