Chapter 43

“I’m sorry Auntie, I’m fine. I just arrived at Paris a little late and fell asleep. I didn’t pay attention to the messages yesterday. Please help me inform Azi...

“Madam, you should call Azi yourself.”

Even her aunt couldn’t help preaching. “Ma’am, you promised me and Azi that you would call back every day to make sure you are safe. How can we know that you are safe? You should have brought a person along with you when you go out. When you are out, who will take care of you? You don’t answer the phone and don’t answer the messages. You are truly trying to kill me!”

Yu Duo confessed. “Sorry Auntie, I know I’m wrong. I will remember to call back every day.”

Aunt Lian sighed. She was sure that Yu Duo was enjoying being abroad.

“Then don’t forget it later.”

“Relax Auntie, I won’t forget.”

Hanging up the phone, Yu Duo called Azi’s phone number and felt a headache.

It’s all because I drank too much yesterday...

The call was connected almost instantaneously.

“Azi, I......”

Before Yu Duo could finish, an urgent voice came from the other side. “Sister in law, are you ok?”

“... I’m ok. I was a little tired yesterday and didn’t look at my cell phone,” Yu duo said in a deep voice. “I’m sorry. I worried you and Aunt Lian.”

“It’s all right,” said Azi in relieved tone. Her voice tone was no longer tense. “Even Auntie Lian was worried about you. If you have time, sister-in-law, you’d better call aunt Lian every day to report your safety.”

“Well, I will!”

Then there was a suffocating silence and Yu Duo broke the silence with this sentence, “if it’s OK, I’ll hang up first.”

“Good.”

She hung up the phone successfully. Yu duo was relieved. She threw her cell phone and lay on the bed. After less than ten minutes, there was a knock at the door.

It was a crazy early in the morning...

Yu Duo forced herself to get up to open the door. A strong smell of roses assaulted her nose.

Outside the door was a staff member holding a bunch of roses.

“Hello, miss. These are the roses from Mr. Alex.”

Yu Duo was stunned and then she responded with a smile and asked the staff member, “It was Mr. Alex who tasked you to give them to me?”

“Yes. And Mr. Alex said he would like to invite you to dinner. ”

“Thank you. I see.”

Yu Duo took the roses and turned back to the room to tip the staff member.

After closing the door, Yu Duo looked at this big bunch of roses sadly. There was large number of roses. It was roughly estimated that there were about ninety-nine roses.

Within three years of marriage with Fu Sinian, she never received a rose once.

Fu Sinian didn’t understand word “romance”. She and Alex only knew each other for one day. He didn’t know anything about her so he sent roses.

Does he want to pursue me?

Are Frenchmen so romantic and impulsive?

Yu Duo was deeply troubled by this.

She really just came to travel. She never thought that she could easily attract a romantic French handsome guy.

Although that man was handsome and romantic, and chatting with him make her happy, Yu Duo decided not to provoke him easily.

Otherwise, she was afraid it’s “infinite trouble.”

Yu Duo decided to leave Paris that day.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, before leaving, she mailed back what she had bought in a shopping spree in Paris.

Of course, to be cautious, she changed her mailing address to Fu Sinian’s apartment.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Yu Duo packed her staff and left the city where she only stayed for two days.

Next stop, London, UK.

On the day of the landing, there was an additional post in the Weibo account of ‘Mrs. Rich’s wealthy life’.

It was a picture of London’s clear sky and British-style streets accompanied by a mischievous emoji. At first sight, you will know that person in the picture is in a good mood when she is traveling and vacationing.

In Yu Duo’s circle of friends, there was also a picture of the London street corner taken at a 45 degree angle with sad words: the weather in London is same as the day you (Fu Sinian) left.
