Chapter 707: Wait and See
"It’s not like that at all, where did your mind go? How could I possibly want to bring someone else back home? I just want to take this with me, okay? This is so cool, don’t I look pretty awesome walking like this? I still need a few days to recover, so I obviously can’t keep using this cane, right? And I’ve already tried it out; walking outside with it is really comfortable."
"About this wheelchair, Mr. Shen, you wouldn’t begrudge me such a small amount of money, would you? I believe you’re that kind of person, who would definitely be willing to pay for this for me, please? If not, let me pay you back, but I might have to use your name, or else the manager might not be willing to sell it to me."
"This is obviously a new product here; it probably hasn’t been marketed outside yet. If I rashly wanted to use this outside, I’d need permission, which would be a hassle if I were alone. So, I decided to leave this matter to you. What do you think?"
Kang Yue said this with a chuckle, having already thought this through. Her spiel made Shen Dong marvel; she was really like a little bandit, always taking whatever she fancied wherever she went, not even sparing the wheelchair. I should have known already, to be aware of such a treasure.
Would this girl willingly follow me? It was hardly likely. But it didn’t matter; just buy it, it’s only a matter of speaking up. Besides, the manager would understand the affection for one’s wife, not wanting her to walk too much, so buying this wheelchair shouldn’t raise any suspicions.
Besides, I hadn’t really planned to take it out for research to compete with others. My businesses are already too many, and there’s still plenty to do. I need to finish those ideas before time runs out.
I can’t let someone else get ahead, so there’s no need for the creativity of this wheelchair. Just explain to the manager and paying a little extra is fine. That’s what I thought.
"Alright, alright, I agree. But you’ll have to wait until after it’s over, and just sit here peacefully, okay? You have to promise me, you can’t make a fuss. I didn’t bring many people out with me today, and most folks here have some ties to the underworld. You have to be careful at a time like this, but luckily he gave me a face mask beforehand."
"Let’s take this mask to the private room, where no one else can see us. Then we can use it to observe from above. I believe it will be an exhilarating sight, but I don’t know if you can handle it because there might be bloodshed, and it can be quite gory. I don’t know if a girl like you can stand it."
"I just wanted to take you out for a change of scenery, not to expose you to such a violent scene. If you don’t want to watch, you can stay there and watch TV shows or movies instead. They have an in-built movie system. After it’s over, you can help me pick, alright? Anyway, I’ll be in the private room with you, so it won’t be too boring or anything."
