Chapter 614 - Buying A Watch (1/2)
Yuan Zhou closed the door of the cabinet and revealed a look of heartache. Of course, what he felt heartache was for the other parts of the duck that were nowhere to be found.
“Ding Ling Ling, Ding Ling Ling,” a familiar ringtone sounded.
“Huh? It is already this hour.” Yuan Zhou took up the phone and checked the time. It clearly displayed 2 o’clock on the screen.
“Um. I can rest for one hour and watch some TV.” Yuan Zhou held his phone and closed the door before heading to the second floor straightforwardly.
That’s right. Ever since he came back from Japan, he had been addicted to a TV drama series. It was actually updated at 12:00 a.m. every day, but it was too late for Yuan Zhou to watch. Therefore, he had to watch it the next day.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou always spared one hour in the afternoon to watch TV every day.
“Can that protagonist defeat those gangsters today?” Yuan Zhou thought carefully while turning on his computer.
What Yuan Zhou watched was a criminal investigation drama. The protagonist was a private detective with a very high IQ and had also been a policeman. But now, he lived on the rewards given by the police authorities which came from cracking the cases.
This drama was quite fast-paced. Basically, a case could be solved in three to five episodes. And the character type of the protagonist was also of that of a prince charming. In Yuan Zhou’s words, he was just a little less handsome than Yuan Zhou himself.
The protagonist wore a business suit every day. Unlike the detectives in other TV dramas, this one had a tidy hair and was dressed very clean. Therefore, Yuan Zhou was quite interested in him.
In today’s episode of the drama, the protagonist went to a store of luxury goods in order to follow a person. He followed him while buying things.
During the period, he even tried several watches on and then bought one.
“Hmm, this watch fits the protagonist very well.” Yuan Zhou sighed with emotion first.
In the following plot not long after that, this watch was used so deftly by the protagonist that it even stopped a bullet for him.
“A man looks so handsome when he wears a watch.” Yuan Zhou stroked his forehead and revealed a thoughtful manner.
“This protagonist is just a little less handsome than me. Since I’m so much more handsome than him, I must have a watch, too.” Yuan Zhou looked at his own wrists.
Five minutes later, Yuan Zhou made a decision.
He took his coat and went out directly. Of course, he was going to buy a watch.
“Ta Ta Ta”. Yuan Zhou walked to the crossroads in one go. During the process, he was ill-treated by Broth flaunting its relationship, as it was chasing and playing with a Chinese stray dog happily. Except for that, everything went smoothly.
Once he got on the car, the driver asked him straightforwardly, “Where are you going?”
The question of the driver directly baffled Yuan Zhou. He just wanted to buy a watch, but he had no idea where he should go to buy one.
However, this was no time to be making mistakes. Yuan Zhou said very calmly, “Lihua Road, please.”
“All right,” answered the driver. Then, the car headed for the most bustling place of this city.”
The place where Yuan Zhou was going this time was not far from the street where he had bought the clothes last time. Since there were so many stores that sold clothes, there must be some places that sold watches.
At around 3:00 in the afternoon, the roads weren’t really crowded. In just half an hour, Yuan Zhou arrived at Lihua Road.
“Thank you.” Yuan Zhou thanked the driver and then got off the car.
“Ta Ta Ta”. He didn’t walk for too long before he saw a large shopping mall.
“Just as expected. If there’s a shopping mall, I can definitely find stores that sell watches inside. How quick-witted I am!” Yuan Zhou praised himself for a while inwardly and then walked into the mall.
With the air-conditioner on, the mall was very warm. Yuan Zhou unzipped his coat first before he started to wander about in the mall.
The area close to the entrance was the clothes area. Of course, they were all women clothes. When he walked inside further, it was the women-shoes area.
“Sure enough. The mall never lacks people.” Yuan Zhou walked forward with big strides towards the central part.
Just in a little while, he walked to a counter where a line of English letters were marked. Yuan Zhou indicated that he basically knew none of them.
Looking at the watches surrounded by the glass cabinet, however, Yuan Zhou stood still there.
