Chapter 66 Nail Polish (2/2)

Hans said doubtfully, ”A present of friendship for 54 thousand dollars? Whoever believes you is an idiot!”

Li Du said, ”This gift pales in comparison to the help that I’ve received from Hannah. I will be making it all up to her in the future.”

Hannah had helped him out far too much. Not counting the monetary help he received while he was staying with them, there were also all sorts of life pointers he had received, as well as the kind consolation from Hannah after being kicked out from school. Even the little bug he was now relying on was from Hannah.

Of course, Hannah was unaware of that.

This car could not be driven back. Hans got a tow for the car, and the two of them went back to Flagstaff with it.

The old Ford F150 was still in repair, and they would not get it back for a whole week. It would be Hannah’s birthday soon, and, combined with the fact that they had been marked by other treasure hunters, they went on break for a few days.

Once back at home, the car was temporarily parked at Pine Tree Tops.

Li Du carefully covered it. When he turned back, he saw an elegant beauty observing him curiously, with her arms crossed.

He took a step back in surprise, and then smiled embarrassingly, ”You scared me. When did you get here?”

The elegant beauty was wearing a police uniform. Naturally, this was the pretty cop, Li Du’s landlord, Rose.

Rose did not answer. Instead, she asked, ”This Z4 is yours? Are you a sissy?”

Li Du replied with a frown, ”A sissy? Have you ever seen such a strong sissy?”

”‘Guy’s won’t have cats and women won’t have dogs.’ You own a fat cat, drive a bright red sports car, and are super careful about your hygiene—you’re gay, aren’t you?”

Li Du was surprised. ”‘Guys won’t have cats and women won’t have dogs’—you’re aware of this saying?”

Rose scoffed. ”Haven’t I told you? My parents are both teachers in a Chinese school. I am probably more knowledgeable about some parts of Chinese culture than you are.”

Li Du said, ”Sorry for doubting your knowledge, but I’m not gay.”

”It’s fine if you are. I don’t discriminate against gays. Love is free, right?” Rose left immediately after she finished, not even giving him a chance to speak.

Li Du felt annoyed. He turned to Ah Meow and said, ”What the hell? This girl has some mental issues, doesn’t she?”

Ah Meow blinked and wore a confused look on its fat face.

Li Du continued, ”What’s with that look? Are you stupid? She just said I shouldn’t be raising you.”

Ah Meow blinked again, and finally reacted. It started fiercely clawing the air at Rose as she walked away. ”Meeooww! Meeooww!”

Before he returned home, he had first gone to the supermarket. Seeing that there were bamboo shoots for sale he had bought some.

After bringing home some meat and vegetables, Li Du went into the kitchen to prepare his meal. Rose came by and asked, ”Do you need my help?”

She had changed into casual wear, with her pair of beautiful legs showing their length and figure clearly through her slim-fit pants.

The floor was clean, so she walked barefoot. Her feet were slender, and her skin as delicate as jade. Her thin toes were beautifully painted with some red nail polish.

Li Du snuck a glance at her, and Rose’s face turned grim. ”What are you looking at?”

”I’m looking at what kind of nail polish you’re wearing. Didn’t you say I’m gay? I want to do some too,” He said unhappily.

Rose left the kitchen, but soon came back and passed him a bottle of nail polish. ”No need for thanks, just take it as a gift for your cooking. I won’t be helping you then, but remember to always make meals for two.”

Li Du took the bright red nail polish, unsure whether he should laugh or cry.
