chapter 17 reject all

The meal lasted until about nine o'clock. Minze Bright suggested: "Edina, it's rare to reunite after so many years. Let's go sing together tonight. You usually work very hard. I heard that you are not doing well now. Okay, let me tell you, you should also relax properly and not think about work all the time. Now that I have returned to Jiangnan City, if you have any difficulties in the future, please let me know and I will ensure that it is taken care of for you." Edina Cooper declined: "Let's give it another day. Sumitra has been on a plane for such a long time and needs a good rest. She has to go to work tomorrow." Sumitra Irwin was also an activist. Just when she was about to agree, Edina Cooper kicked her from below. She understood and shut up obediently. In fact, she could tell that Edina Cooper really didn't like Hu Hao. The reason why he reluctantly dealt with it tonight was because of her face. She couldn't be too late to advance or retreat. "Yeah, I'm a little tired, so I won't sing tonight." Sumitra Irwin said in cooperation. Minze Bright took out an exquisite jewelry box from his pocket, opened the lid, revealed a necklace, and said to Edina Cooper affectionately: "Edina, this necklace, I bought it at an auction in London." I took this necklace specially for you. This necklace is called Black Rose. I feel that if there is one person in this world who is worthy of this necklace, that person must be you. This is a gift for you. You will never reject me again. Come on, let’s say it first, this represents the friendship between our classmates, you can’t refuse.” "What, black rose?" Sumitra Irwin covered her mouth and exclaimed: "It turns out that this necklace was taken by you. I heard that the transaction price at that time was almost 10 million US dollars. You are so generous!" Edina Cooper was startled. Ten million US dollars... This is too expensive. "Since it's just a friendship between classmates, then this gift is too expensive. I'm sorry, I can't accept it." A glimmer of light flashed in Edina Cooper eyes. It was obvious that she also liked this necklace. Women are naturally fond of jewelry, but she still refused without any hesitation. She also secretly glanced at Ilyas Gellar. The latter had no reaction. It was only ten million US dollars, but Ilyas Gellar didn't think it was expensive. However, he was moved. Can I also give her a necklace? Of course, it must be better than this black rose, in order to be worthy of Edina Cooper. Minze Bright frowned and said: "Edina, why do you keep rejecting me? I really like you. After so many years, you also know that I have a soft spot for you. Just give me a chance. " Edina Cooper almost vomited. If she hadn't considered the other person's unusual status, she would have really wanted to slap him in the face. Still have a soft spot? Who doesn’t know how many girls Minze Bright harmed when he was in college. He thought he was doing it secretly, but Edina Cooper found out about those rubbish things from too many channels. Edina Cooper said very depressedly: "But I really only treat you as a classmate, so why do you force yourself to make things difficult for others?" "No, I will never give up on you! I will keep pursuing you until you agree!" Minze Bright said firmly. Ilyas Gellar really couldn't stand it anymore: "Mr. Hu, aren't you going too far? Mr. Wang has already said he doesn't like you. Is it interesting if you keep pestering me?" "None of your business, who do you think you are? Are you a little bodyguard worthy of talking to me? You'd better shut up!" Minze Bright was very angry, but he didn't expect Ilyas Gellar to jump out and speak. Suddenly, he vented his full dissatisfaction towards Ilyas Gellar. A hint of impatience flashed in Ilyas Gellar's eyes, and he stood up. After giving Sumitra Irwin a wink, Edina Cooper stopped Ilyas Gellar and said to Minze Bright: "Okay, that's it for tonight. Let's go first, Sumitra, let's go." After saying that, she looked at Ilyas Gellar with a pleading expression. Ilyas Gellar was ready to explode, but when he saw Edina Cooper's expression, he had no choice but to hold back, turned around and left without saying anything. The three of them ignored Minze Bright. On the way back to the hotel, Sumitra Irwin said cautiously: "Edina, I'm sorry." "Why did you apologize to me?" Edina Cooper was stunned. Sumitra Irwin said apologetically: "If I hadn't made my own decision, Hu Hao wouldn't have been able to find you here, and I wouldn't have ruined your good mood. After so many years, I thought you would change, but I didn't expect that you would still be the same. In fact, I admire you very much, rejecting such a man is not something ordinary women can do." "If it were you, would you like him? You also know what kind of person he is."Edina Cooper said. Sumitra Irwin shook his head: "I have a sweetheart. I only like shadows. I will never be tempted by other men. Well, are you really not angry with me?" Edina Cooper hugged her and smiled: "Am I that stingy? What is our relationship? This kind of trivial matter will not affect our relationship. Besides, even if he doesn't come today, he will come in the future. So, I don’t blame you at all for this matter, I just rejected him in person to avoid endless troubles." "Well, as expected of my good bestie, this matter is over. But I have to remind you that with Minze Bright's character, you will still be troubled in the future." "Let's talk about it then. It's just one step ahead." Edina Cooper said indifferently. Sumitra Irwin looked at Ilyas Gellar in front of him, and suddenly smiled and said: "Ilyas Gellar, I didn't see it, you are quite courageous, but don't be so impulsive in the future. Minze Bright is the young master of the Bright Family, and the Bright Family is a big family. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and it is said that he is still a master of the outer sect. Next time you face him, try not to provoke him, otherwise you will suffer a loss." "Thanks." Ilyas Gellar smiled casually. Suffering a loss? He didn't think he would suffer easily, especially for a small character like Minze Bright. Sumitra Irwin seemed to have the slightest interest in Ilyas Gellar, and took the initiative to chat with him for a few words. Seeing that Ilyas Gellar ignored him, she didn't ask for trouble. After sending Sumitra Irwin to the hotel, Ilyas Gellar drove home. There was no communication between the two during the journey. Their relationship is that of husband and wife, but they don’t have the intimacy between husband and wife. They even feel a little awkward every time they are alone together. They were almost home, and Edina Cooper couldn't help but say: "He is our classmate. He has been chasing me before, but I didn't agree. I don't like him." Ilyas Gellar felt like laughing. He happily thought that Edina Cooper was afraid that he would be jealous and that he cared about him. "I didn't expect that he was the young master of the Bright Family. the Bright Family is more powerful than the Evert Family. Three the Evert Family are no match for one the Bright Family. We have to face the revenge of the Evert Family now. At this time, we can't be at odds with the Bright Family. , you know what I mean, right?" Edina Cooper said. Ilyas Gellar smiled and said: "I understand, but you don't have to explain this to me at all. I believe you." Face turned red, Edina Cooper immediately explained: "Did you misunderstand something?" "What did I misunderstand?" "You'd better not think too much. I just don't want to be misunderstood. Also, I want to remind you that I don't like you either. There is no relationship between us. We are just a fake couple. Minze Bright has been chasing me since high school. It’s been ten years now, and I haven’t been tempted. I said that I have no interest in love, and I won’t easily fall in love with a man.” Edina Cooper's words made Ilyas Gellar stop laughing. This woman is so stubborn. If you care, just care. You're afraid that people won't know. You're not a child. Do you need to do this? Seeing that Ilyas Gellar's smile disappeared and the atmosphere became more dull, Edina Cooper felt a little regretful and opened her mouth, but never said another word.
