Chapter 70 Dinner
Chapter 70 Dinner
As soon as Emily left the RF Group and stood in front of the building, she was determined that her love
was stolen away by Gail. She had loved James for so many years, but Gail managed to make him fall
in love with her without making efforts.
Emily was at daggers drawn with Gail.
Gail knew nothing about that. She read a lot of books in the library every day. She worked to earn
some living expenses on weekends. But she didn't make enough money on weekends, so she had to
save money and take time to become a tutor.
Gail's schedule was very tight. When she went to her dormitory, Iris kept asking her to chat with her for
a while, but she was too tired.
"Go to the library with me tomorrow. Don't stay in the dormitory every day. Your body is out of shape.
Besides, there are many handsome men in the library." Gail knew that Iris had little immunity to
handsome guys, so she used this reason to persuade Iris.
"Which one do you like? Ah! Is there anyone more handsome than Hoyle? Can you catch one? Then,
let him invite us to a meal before you break up. Ha-ha, I can enjoy a free meal again." However, Iris
didn't take any actions. Instead, she was talking nonsense.
Gail threw back the covers and lied on the bed. "Good for nothing. Go find one yourself. I haven't eaten
a free meal from you before. I'm curious about what kind of boy you like in real life! Don't tell me who's
your guy, or I'll wear headphones."
Iris opened her mouth and was about to enumerated something. Hearing that, she could say nothing
but smile. "All right. You just want me to go to the library with you, right? I can finish my work in the
library."
Lying in bed and staring at the ceiling, Gail couldn't help but sigh contentedly, "That's right. I'll have a
company tomorrow."
"Since I have promised you, you should also promise me a small request." Iris thought that it happened
to be an opportunity.
"What is it?"
"You take a day off on the weekend. Go shopping with me." Iris hadn't been out to have afternoon tea
with her best friend for a long time. She missed it very much.
After hesitating for a while, Gail said, "Okay, I'll satisfy you. We will never have such a chance, so you
should cherish it."
"By the way, your grandfather called you to our dormitory. I forgot to tell you. He said there was some
pocket money in your schoolbag. You can't take it as a paper and wash." They had never used their
dorm's telephone, but Gai's grandfather had called them.
Gail sat up in bed, "My grandpa? Did he give me money?"
Gail left some money to her grandpa before she left, but her grandpa still gave money back to her. She
knew that his grandpa must have gone to the mountain to dig up the medicinal herbs. Otherwise, he
couldn't have other sources to earn money. Her grandpa used some of the state aid to buy medicine
and took others as living expenses.
Tears welled up in Gail's eyes. The only person she felt sorry for in this world was her grandfather. Now Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
that she was about to graduate, she had to go home to take care of her grandpa. She didn't want him
to suffer too much in the last days of his life.
It was not convenient for her grandpa to go out in winter, so he would carefully feed the chickens and
sheep raised by him. Gail could help when she was at home. If she left, only grandpa could handle it.
Gail lay on the bed and wept secretly.
Knowing that Gail was sad, Iris turned off the light and went to bed quietly.
Iris wanted to be friends with Gail not only because she was an easygoing girl, but also because that
she knew that Gail was a filial kid and she felt sympathy for her toughness.
As a matter of fact, what worried Iris was not that Gail didn't deserve him when Gail was with James. It
was that she thought the young CEO who had been accustomed to luxurious life wasn't a good match
for a kind, filial, obedient and beautiful girl.
The result showed that James didn't deserve Gail's love. Iris believed that Gail would meet a man who
loved her very much and gave her a happy life in the near future. She believed that Gail would lead a
happy life when she forgot about James.
Hoyle was going abroad. He came to find Gail and Iris and invited them to have a meal in a high-end
restaurant.
But actually it was not expensive either. Hoyle knew that Gail did not like expensive things, and he was
afraid that she would think he was showing off what he had in front of her. Gail never envied his things.
She didn't measure a man by his money. What's more, he had been using his parents' money now.
That was also the reason why Hoyle loved Gail with all his heart. Until now, he hadn't met a girl as Gail.
When Iris and Gail arrived at the appointed restaurant, Gail was somewhat absent-minded.
It happened that Gail and James had come to this restaurant once. She learned from the Internet that
the food in this place was not expensive, and the environment was comfortable. It was a clean place,
and it was the most cost-effective.
Others didn't know that. Gail just looked at the place they had once been and felt a little sad.
"You two are here. I wonder if you like the place I picked. But the dishes here are all your favorite. I
don't think you don't like them." Hoyle didn't notice Gail's displeasure because she wore a slight smile
as usual.
"Gai likes it, right? How do you know what I like? But I like whatever Gai likes. Just follow her wish." Iris
wanted to seize the chance to make fun of Hoyle. As a gooseberry, she had to regulate the
atmosphere.
Hearing that, Hoyle smiled and handed the menu to Gail directly.
"It's okay for me. I'm not a picky eater. You two order whatever you like." Gail passed the menu to Iris.
"Okay. I know what you like to eat. Hum… Fish with pickled cabbage, stewed meat, green onion,
scrambled egg, and stewed pork with brown sauce... " Iris read the dishes on the menu directly.
Hearing what she said, Gail felt something was wrong. She grabbed Iris's arm and said, "There are
only three of us. It's not necessary for us to order too much." Then she lowered her voice and
continued, "And I don't think it's going to be agreeable if we eat something like pig's intestine."
"You're right," Iris said as she glanced at Hoyle who was staring at Gai. "Then we don't order this one.
That's all. Hoyle, here you are."
Gail smiled at Hoyle. It was obvious that pig's intestine was Iris's favorite food. Though she loved eating
it, she wouldn't order it in front of a boy. Or it seemed that she had a heavy taste.
But there was no need to hide. After all, if Gail let Hoyle see her have such a vulgar side, he may know
that she was not good as he thought.
"I thought girls would hate to eat intestine and viscera, so I didn't intend to order it. I once went to the
countryside Auntie's house to eat it when I was a child. I always like eating it." Did Hoyle find that Gail
was unnatural? Or did he really like eating it?
