Chapter 37 Date With Ex-husband (1/2)
”Wow, Ashley, this is the first time I have seen you in a skirt. You look so beautiful!”
Ashley was embarrassed to look at them and she tidied up her hair. ”Why haven't you gone back yet?” she asked
”Zoe and Morris are worried about you. They said they would go back after you left.” Alice explained.
”Ashley, why do you dress up so beautiful? Are you going on a date?” Zoe leaned over and said, ”Wow, you wear perfume too. There must be something fishy about it!”
Morris also looked over.
”No, we are just friends.” Ashley waved her hands in a hurry and said, ”I've been trained for a day so I can't go to dinner with sweat. So I changed my clothes. I used perfume to cover the smell of sweat.”
They left with half-believe. Fortunately, they soon hailed a taxi. After saying goodbye to the others, Ashley got on the taxi and left.
The manager in Banquet Night Building was standing in the hall while the people in the building were singing and dancing, ”Are you alone, miss?”
”No, I am looking for someone.” Ashley smiled.
The lobby manager stepped back cannily to the other side of the room. Having been sitting on the second floor and observing what was going on at the door, Francis waved to Ashley when he saw her. Seeing him, Ashley walked upstairs.
She sat down, and Francis poured a cup of honey grapefruit tea for her.
”Do you train so late every day? Is there any break? ”
Ashley throat was dry and scorching, so she took a few sips of tea, moistening her throat. ”We have to train intensively for three months, and no rest day.”
”What time does it start every day?”
”At nine o'clock in the morning, we have one hour rest at noon and one hour at dust.”
Francis shook his head. ”I've told you not to work in this industry. It was just too hard. But you ignored what I said.”
”It proves that this is what I'm destined to do.” Ashley smiled, ”Let's eat something. I'm starving to death.”
It seemed that they were back in love again. In a daze, Francis replied, ”Okay. Waiter!”
The waiter came in with the menu.
Since they knew each other well, they didn't care about the inelegant way to have meal. Besides, they also ordered the food like braised pork feet with red pepper, braised pork feet with brown pepper, and then the braised pork cakes with yellow flower, two cups of ice candy and pear, and a dish of vegetable salad. The table was full of food.
Ashley, wearing disposable gloves, chewed pig's trotters and listened to Francis telling a play.
