Wendy Lim could not believe that the man in front of her was a former soldier.
At that time, she often stayed with that man, so she could meet Ewan Shaw frequently. She could not hide her thoughts before Ewan Shaw. She was often teased by Ewan Shaw... This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Wendy Lim looked at Ewan Shaw again. He was in a black V- neck shirt, revealing his collarbones. A thumb-sized jade Buddha statue was hung on his chest. She didn't expect that he would have such an uninhibited look when he didn't wear his military uniform.
After surprise, Wendy Lim felt delighted.
It wasn't easy to meet an old friend, but Ewan Shaw was in a trance after listening to her words.
"What's wrong with you?" Wendy Lim asked.
Ewan Shaw gave a smile to disguise his trance, "Nothing, I just haven't heard anyone call me like that for a long time."
Wendy Lim remembered that her manager called him "Mr. Shaw". She understood his words and did not think much about it. She still had some questions, "As a soldier, you should stay with him, why are you here now..."
"I was discharged from active military service after Felix left!" Ewan Shaw said with studied understatement, as if he was just experiencing life in the army.
"Oh..." Wendy Lim lowered her eyes.
Ewan Shaw stood up straight, "Let's find a place to eat something to steady our nerves!"
"..." Only she needed to steady nerves.
Wendy Lim looked at her watch and shook her head. "Sorry. Maybe another day, I still have work to do now!"
"OK!" Ewan Shaw did not force her. He waved his hand and left.
The next noon, Wendy Lim was eating lunch in the pantry.
She worked in a small private company engaged in finance with a salary of 600 dollars a month. Her daily workload was not very large. The company provided allowances for lunch so staff could order some takeout food.
Wendy Lim ordered a stir-fried tofu in hot sauce. She had just put a piece of tofu in her mouth, a colleague patted her on the shoulder and said, “Wendy, someone is looking for you."
Wendy Lim looked over and saw Ewan Shaw, who had a handsome look, was leaning against the door of the pantry.
She was surprised.
More and more female colleagues looked at Ewan Shaw. Wendy Lim was afraid of that he would attract more onlookers, so she had to take him to the elevator. "How do you know I'm here?"
"It's easy!" Ewan Shaw bent his little finger, and his expression became relaxed. Then he pressed the button of the elevator and said to her, "We have agree to eat together. I helped you last night. You have to do something to thank me! Let's go!"
Wendy Lim remembered clearly that she said "another day".
Indeed, she should thank him. So she did not refuse when he dragged her into the elevator. However, she felt pity for the delicious takeout food.
Ewan Shaw drove a Porsche which was very cool. Wendy Lim only felt uncomfortable and shuffled around in the seat. She covered her messy hair with hands and ran into the restaurant as soon as the car stopped.
Ewan Shaw handed the key to the security guard and quickly caught up with her.
When they got inside, the restaurant manager walked to them with a smile and said, "Mr. Shaw, we’ ve reserved a table for your!"
"Thank you!" Ewan Shaw answered and turned to Wendy Lim, "This way please!"
Wendy Lim nodded and followed him. Thinking of the restaurant manager who kept smiling all the time, she realized that Ewan Shaw was no longer an ordinary soldier.
The revolving door behind them seemed to start again. There were other guests coming in.
The footsteps were very familiar to Wendy Lim, which were quick but not hurried, revealing a businessman's calmness and stability.
Then, she heard the restaurant manager's flattering voice," Mr. Hogg, this way please!"
