In the past two days, Rachel felt that her appetite suddenly became a little strange. The food she didn't
like before had become the food that made her drool.
This afternoon, she just finished the orange prepared by Julie and planned to sit on the sofa and watch
the phone for a while to digest. But when she saw the fried chicken advertisement on TV, she
inexplicably felt that her mouth began to flood with saliva.
In the past, she regarded the food as junk food. The nurses in the hospital liked it very much. They
often ordered a take-out with fried chicken when they were free. At that time, the pantry was always
filled with the smell of fried chicken. They thought it was very fragrant, but Rachel always felt that the
oily smell was very strong, and it was not healthy.
But now, watching the advertisement on TV, she really wanted to have a big plate in front of her so that
she could glut herself in it.
Rachel stretched out her hand and rubbed her belly. She felt hungry again. She bit her lips and
hesitated for a long time. Finally, she made a decision and went back to her room to change her
clothes.
Jack had just finished his work in the study and was about to go downstairs to have a look, but he
happened to meet Rachel who had taken off her home clothes and was about to go out. He was
flustered and reached out to stop her. "Rachel, what are you going to do?"
"I want to eat fried chicken."
Rachel put on her clothes in order to blow up the chicken, as if she was a glutton.
Jack rubbed between his eyebrows. Her answer was a little unexpected. He was stunned for a few
seconds and came to his senses. He quickly walked back to the study, picked up his suit jacket, and
said lightly, "Then I'll go with you."
"No, thanks." Rachel refused subconsciously, but he didn't take her words seriously and went straight
to the stairs.
Well, since she didn't have a car, he could be a free driver.
Thinking of this, she followed him. She pressed the navigation on her mobile phone and found a small
restaurant, which was crowded with people. The small store was already full of people.
Jack parked the car beside, rolled down the window and looked at the shop. "Are you going to eat
inside or pack it up?"
Rachel frowned and hesitated for a while. She happened to see a couple coming out of the restaurant.
A double table near the window was empty. She quickly smiled and said, "How about eating inside? Do
you have time?"
"Yes!" Jack looked at her smile. At this moment, even if hundreds of millions of orders were placed in
front of him to let him go back, he was afraid that he would not be willing to leave her for a second.
He reached out his hand to protect her from being touched by others. As soon as they arrived at the
store, Rachel was about to order food at the counter, but was stopped by Jack. He pressed her
shoulder and let her sit down at the table. He said in a gentle voice, "Sit here and wait for me. If you
want to eat anything, tell me. I'll order it."
"But I don't know what to eat here."
It was the first time she had come to the fried chicken store, so she had no clue at all.
"Wait a minute."
After saying that, Jack turned around and walked towards the counter. He raised his mobile phone and
patted the menu plate on it. Then he came back and sat down opposite her. There was a hint of
appreciation in his tone, "Have a look. What do you like to eat?"
It turned out that there were so many kinds of fried chicken. Looking at the various names, she felt that
she really had no idea how to order. After reading for a long time, she did not know. When she was
about to order two randomly, Jack suddenly stood up and walked to the next table, where there were
two junior high school students in school uniform sitting there.
Rachel was confused that why he suddenly went there? He asked, "Excuse me. Which do you think is
the best fried chicken in this store?"
"It is what we are eating."
"Which one on the menu?"
After asking the question, he asked about other snacks in detail. He looked so serious as if he was
talking about a company project. Seeing that, Rachel was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. At the
same time, she was a little moved.
Jack almost finished his question. He sat down again and smiled, "How about a Korean fried chicken?
It's said that the special sauce here is the best."
"Okay." Lowering her head to hide her slightly wet eyes, she said, "since you've asked, just do as they
just recommended."
"Okay, wait for me." Not long after Jack sat down, he stood up again and stood behind the counter.
Looking at his back, which was dressed in a suit, standing in front of a group of students and young
girls, she felt a warm stream rising in her heart. She felt hot on her face, as if she had drunk a glass of
strong wine, and blood gushed out of her head.
Scarlett and her friends had just finished shopping with many bags in their hands, all of which were
their spoils in the afternoon.
The girl pointed at the chicken store in front of them and said, "Go in and have a rest. I've been
shopping for a long time. My legs are so sore now."
"This kind of place..." Scarlett frowned and said in disgust, "There are so many people inside, and they
are all students. Isn't it too embarrassing to go to such a place? If my memory serves me right, there
seems to be a Starbucks ahead. Let's go there and have a rest."
"Your treat?"
"Of course it's Dutch."
The girl pursed her lips and muttered to herself.
Of course, Scarlett didn't notice that. She took two steps forward and suddenly stopped. She looked at
the glass on the right. Although she didn't know the person sitting inside, the face looked so similar to
what she saw in the mirror!
She had heard about the relationship between this woman and Jack from her cousin before, and her
expression immediately became a little serious and resentful.
The girl frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Why don't you move?"
"I have something to deal with. Wait for me at Starbucks." After saying that, Scarlett stuffed the stuff in
her hand into her friend's hand and walked quickly into the fried chicken store. As expected, she saw
Jack.
It seemed that two villains were quarreling in Rachel's hearts. One said that it was all over and there
was no need to take it to heart. Look, how good he was to you.
Another voice kept shouting. This time it was related to her parents. How could she forgive them so
easily?
The two of them were well matched in strength.
Complicated thoughts came into Rachel's mind, making her sometimes happy and sometimes
melancholy.
She was a little nervous. Before he came back, Rachel took out her cell phone and sent a message to
Lea on WeChat to ask for her opinion.
'Should we reconcile?'
It took a long time to get a reply from Lea. She didn't seem to understand why Rachel suddenly asked
this question. Lea asked what they were doing clearly before she gave the answer.
The phone on the table vibrated. It was a message from Lea. Rachel clicked it.
"My attitude has been clear when I went to see you last time... In the past two days, you have known
what Jack has done, haven't you? After all, it's not easy for a man to do so many things for you. That's
enough. You should put down what you should put down, and then you can truly get happiness!"
Biting her lips, Rachel read the message again and again. Her heart, which had been a little restless
before, now seemed to have been set at ease. She had made up her mind.
When he came back, she would tell him that she was not angry anymore.
At this time, a girl suddenly sat down opposite. Rachel was about to tell her that this seat had been
taken. Seeing her familiar face, Rachel frowned tightly.
If she hadn't known that her parents only had one daughter, she would have thought that she was her
own sister!
Seeing her surprised expression, Scarlett smiled complacently, "Do you think we two look like each
other very much?"
It seemed that she came here specially to look for her. Rachel's eyes became indifferent and she didn't
say anything.
Looking at her eyes, Scarlett felt a little guilty when she thought of what she would say later. But when
she thought that she would be able to achieve her goal after she succeeded, she took a deep breath
and the smile at the corners of her mouth became more and more enchanting. "I was also surprised
when I saw your photo in Jack's phone for the first time. I didn't expect that he would find such a similar
girl for revenge on me."
'Revenge...'
Rachel sneered. "It seems that you have known each other for a long time."
"We were in the same high school before." Scarlett was lying with her eyes wide open.
After all, the story of Jack and Celine was known to all in this circle. If she could calculate it slightly, she
could naturally calculate the corresponding time.
Scarlett turned around and looked at the counter. Seeing that it was Jack's turn, she was afraid that he
would come back soon.
She had almost finished what she should say. She stood up, smiled at Rachel and reached out her
hand. "I'm glad to see you today. It's really a surprise for me."
"Thank you." A cold light flashed in her cold eyes. Rachel reached out her hand and touched Scarlett's
fingertips. Then she took back the teacup in front of her and totally forgot that she had just poured it
and planned to put it down before drinking it.
Now that her tongue was scalded, the anger in Rachel's heart suddenly rose a lot.
Since Scarlett said that she and Jack were in the same high school, then Rachel knew that she was
telling a lie, but she couldn't come to irritate Rachel for no reason.
It must have something to do with the news about the eight young models!
