“Victor Chu, didn’t you hear what I said? Why are you acting so mean? Are you going to beat me?” Daisy Chen glared at him.
“Enough!”
“Sis, you’re the one who called him to di
nner. You said that you wouldn’t embarrass him, so what are you doing? I’ll just let him take my position.” Said Dinah Chen, standing up.
As soon as she stood up, Victor put down the chopsticks to pull her back and make her sit down, “Enjoy your meal. I’ll leave first, for I forgot to do something.”
Then Victor left the room.
He sobered up by the wind.
Right. Why was he still hesitating? What’s the point of being sad when the two were no longer in the same world? Maybe it’s because he had fantasies that he might really become a couple with Daisy and even some fantasies of the future. However, Fantasy was fantasy after all, vulnerable to the cruel reality.
As for Daisy, his goodness and silent devotion to Daisy was the cheapest, the most worthless and the most disgusting tenderness.
Only in the end did Victor slowly feel that what he liked was Dinah.
That naïve and kind girl.
Dinah was so kind that she didn’t want to hurt anyone, and because of that, Victor was now even more hesitant. If he suddenly told her that he was actually quite rich, would she feel being cheated and keep distance from him?
Now Dinah’s feelings for him are the purest of all, not because of his status, nor because of his assets. There were no impurities mixed in it. Besides, Victor enjoyed this kind of feeling and he didn’t want to ruin their relationship.
Victor smiled as he thought about it.
“A drip of water in need shall be returned with a spring.”
Victor smiled.
“Victor! Why still here? Let’s go.” A clear voice suddenly came to him.
“Dinah? What are you doing here?” Victor was stunned.
“I don’t like that place. Those people are hypocritical.”
“They kicked you out and they clearly didn’t treat you as a friend.” Dinah pouted.
Victor couldn’t help but laugh. Friend? Who here would really consider him as a friend? Since those rumors had spread around the school, besides his several own roommates and those few people, who would still respect him?
“Silly girl, I dare to come to this dinner, which means that I’m ready to deal with all this, but you, you’re having trouble with your sister, right? Is everything alright?” Victor was concerned.
Dinah shook her head.
“Forget it. Anyway, you won’t tell me. I’ll treat you a feast tomorrow and please don’t say no!” Victor grinned and he decided to give her a surprise.
“Can you afford a feast? What a pity…I ‘ve given all the money I got from the project to my parents, otherwise I can still help you.” Dinah lowered her head, thinking that whether she could get some money for Victor when she did a project with Pearl Group in the future, otherwise he was so pathetic.
“I don’t need your help and you’d better save the money for yourself. Don’t let your sister take your money. You can only feel safe when the money is in your own hands.” Victor couldn’t help but rub her hair.
Just now at the dinner table when Carl Guo said that the crisis between their Guo family and Pearl Group had been resolved, Victor knew that this was a favor from Dinah, and now Although Dinah was just the head of Chen family’s project with the Pearl Group, because of Victor, she had the power beyond her position when she negotiated with Pearl Group.
And Dinah had always been obedient, so this was Daisy who asked her to do. Victor was worried that Daisy would be too much, using Dinah as a cash cow.
“I don’t really need the money.” Dinah smiled.
“You’re going to take a big loss sooner or later if you keep being like this.”
“By the way, your eighteenth birthday is in a few days, what do you want for your present?” Victor changed the topic.
For the past three years, Victor hadn’t prepared a great gift for Dinah. He didn’t have too much money and he had spent a lot on Daisy, but as a result, he hadn’t been able to please her.
Now Victor just wanted to make up for it and prepare a grand birthday party for her.
But one thing was a little tricky. Daisy and Dinah were born on the same day and if he held a city-wide great birthday party for Dinah, Daisy would be tough to deal with.
But after thinking about it, it was fine. Daisy had already broken up with him and it’s really unnecessary to consider about her.
“Don’t spend money for me. I want nothing. Besides, I’m now a project leader of Chen family, so the salary is quite good.” Dinah tilted her head proudly when she said this.
Well, Victor didn’t want to talk about this anymore.
They walked and talked, heading back to school after leaving Seven Flavor Restaurant.
Victor went back to the dormitory when it was empty. He ranked the third among his four roommates, according to their ages. The other three ones spent all day in internet café or bar to pick up girls. It’s normal to see none of them.
In the evening, Victor called Xi Ming again and asked her to help book a table at the White Swan Music Restaurant.
Victor had promised to take Dinah for a good meal, so naturally, he would keep the promise.
White Swan was definitely a higher-grade restaurant than Seven Flavor Restaurant in Jing’ an District, but in comparison, the latter one was suitable for parties, while White Swan was for dating. It’s a good place for western food and wine.
The next day, when it was almost noon, Victor called Dinah in advance.
To be honest, Dinah didn’t want Victor to spend too much, but she didn’t have any money on her and the money she got from the project was all given to her parents and sister.
But Victor insisted on letting her out, and she was unable to refuse, so she came. The two agreed to meet at the school gate.
“What’s up? Isn’t that Victor? Is that your fiancée over there? Your fiancée is with someone else. Don’t you want to take her back?”
As soon as Victor arrived, his fellow classmate Lei Sun came to him and his voice was full of surprise and ridicule.
Victor’s fiancée was a breaking news in the university and all his classmates and even several other classes knew this, calling him live-in son-in-law and a wimp, who relied on his fiancée. They often teased him, but Victor just ignored them.
However, when he heard Lei speak, he couldn’t help but look towards the main street in front of the school.
Daisy today dressed quite sexy, but she was rarely so… There was a BMW 5 Series parked by the side of the road. When the window lowered down, Carl stretched out his head.
“Baby, I sold my 3 Series and got this. Do you like it?”
“Nice!” Daisy was very happy.
“Then why don’t you come in? A starry top, special for you.”
“I’m taking you to a feast and I’ve already booked a restaurant. A surprise for you!” Carl blinked.
Although he wasn’t good-looking, this car had already helped him a lot and Daisy got into the car with the envy of others. She looked happy and she was enjoying this.
A university student could drive a BMW and it’s hard to find one like Carl, which satisfied her great vanity.
Victor was watching far away and couldn’t help but sigh.
A BMW made her lose herself. She, at least the third lady of Chen family and how could she be so easy to get?
Victor couldn’t understand Daisy’s chasing fame and fortune, which was probably the most important reason why they broke up.
When Victor concentrated on watching, someone pulled his hand.
“Dinah? You’re finally here.” Victor grinned.
“Don’t be angry... You and my sister are impossible anyway, so just let it go.” Dinah apparently saw this as well, so she wanted to say something to comfort Victor.
“I’m fine. Let’s go.” Victor indifferently said so.
“Where are we going to eat?” Dinah asked.
“White swan.”
“What? We’d better not. The spending is too high there!” Dinah was shocked.
As a lady in Chen family, she definitely knew the consumption level of White Swan, which was not a place for ordinary people.
“What are you afraid of? Yesterday you didn’t eat well because of me and today I must treat you a feast. I don’t need you to pay for it.” Victor smiled.
“Let’s go.”
Saying so, he held her hand and took a cab.
White Swan Music Restaurant was in the downtown commercial street more than ten miles south away from school, extremely busy. When the two arrived at the door, they stopped.
On the parking lot, there was a BMW 5 Series bought by Carl.
“Let’s... just leave. This is Carl’s car, so they also eat here... if we run into each other... “Dinah worried that it would be embarrassing to run into her sister later.
“Let’s go!” Victor took a breath. Some things had to be confessed and some people had to face. The fact that he was rich might be hidden from someone and he could just see Dinah’s attitude.
