Chapter 27 Hopeless

"Ah, Aponia...?"

The corners of Li's eyes twitched, and she asked again without giving up: "What you just said...can you repeat it again?"

"Do you have enough money? If not, I still have..." As if he didn't hear what Li said, Aponya still asked calmly.

"..."

There is definitely a big problem here!

Li stared intently at Alicia's face. He strongly suspected that Alicia bribed Aponya, otherwise this would not be the case.

"Don't stare at me like that. Even I can be shy~?" Alicia covered her face with one hand, covering half of her cheeks that had not turned red at all.

"What deal did you and Aponya make?" Li gritted her teeth, wanting to know the truth behind her defeat.

"Eh? Did I have any transaction with Aponya?" Alicia took out a small stack of bills from her bag with a confused look on her face and threw it into the donation box that Aponya handed over to her at some point. , and then took out another stack from the bag, seeming to seduce someone, "Sorry, I really don't know~?"

"..."

Therefore, he hates people who have the ability to make money the most, although this is not a loss for him.

what to do? Somewhat exciting.

Li was once again caught up in the choice between money and the future.

Perhaps seeing the entanglement in Li's heart, Aponya, who had just sold Li, comforted him: "Li, don't worry, I can feel it. Miss Alicia has no ill intentions towards you."

...If he was really malicious, he would have been torn into pieces by the chainsaw last night.

"Alas..." Among the two, Li finally chose money, exchanging known benefits for unknown risks. Li thought it was worth the gamble.

"Alicia, you can let me go, I won't run away again." Li's expression became as calm as Aponia's, which was a sign of facing her fate calmly.

"Ah, Li, it's great that you can obey~" Alicia readily let go of Li's restrained wrist. Looking at the red marks on it and the sunken skin, one could tell that Alicia had just How strong is his hand?

Li knew that Alicia had full confidence in her own strength and was not afraid of running away. However, now that he had made his decision, he had no intention of going back.

Li looked at Alicia and asked, "So, where are we going today?"

"Eh? When you go out with such a cute girl like me, you actually let her make travel plans? Li, you won't please girls like this~?" Alicia lectured.

"Sorry, Alicia, I really don't have time to prepare this time. I will make a plan next time I go out." Li knew very well that Alicia would always arrange things in advance for what she wanted to do. clear and direct.

So this time, Li knew that Alicia had definitely arranged everything and was just waiting for him to be in place.

"Next time...?!" Alicia caught the key word.

"No, there's no next time...ah, no, I mean, wait until I have time." Li didn't dare to refuse too quickly, otherwise what would he do if Alicia came to her door as forcefully as she did today.

Anyway, the experiment is approaching, and Mebius should not allow himself to have a long vacation, otherwise it would not be good if there is an accident outside.

"It seems that you have successfully reached a consensus." Jianli finally agreed to the travel plan, and Aponya nodded happily beside him.

"No, I was forced by your partnership..." Reluctance was written on Li's face.

"Yes, that's great. I originally thought Li wouldn't agree~?" Alicia also looked relieved.

"I didn't want to agree in the first place..."

"Well, I'll excuse you now, and I wish you a good time." Aponya glanced at the sky and felt that it was time for him to get busy, so he said goodbye to the two of them.

"Don't ignore me!"

"Okay, see you next time. Thank you very much, Aponya~?" Alicia put another stack of banknotes that she had already taken out into the donation box, openly and honestly, which made Li's eyes get hot.

When Aponya left, Alicia suddenly said with emotion: "Aponya is really a considerate and beautiful girl, are you right, Li?"

"Yes, yes..." Li echoed a few words perfunctorily. After this incident, Aponya was successfully placed on the distrust list by Li.

He really didn't expect that one day he would be betrayed by Aponia. Looking at her uncontested look, Li really thought that Aponia was a person who would not betray her friends for profit... Bah, Scumbag!

"Hmm~ Now that everyone is here, let's take a look at this trip plan~?" As she said that, Alicia pulled out a long list from her bag and looked at it. Terrified.

"Okay, okay, no matter what, we can't finish so many things in one day." Alicia saw the horror in Li's heart and comforted her with a smile, "We are not the only ones listed here. My travel plan, and anyone else’s~?”

"That's good..." Hearing this, Li couldn't help but pat his chest. He was really frightened just now, and thought Alicia was really going to go crazy to complete all the things listed on this list.

This is more than one day's work. To complete it, Li will definitely have to stay with Alicia for a few more days. This is not what he wants to see... unless more money is added.

"Let's go, our first stop is a snack bar on 14th Street. I heard the crepes there are delicious, but unfortunately I never had the chance to try them~?" Alicia grabbed Li's hand. , pulling him out of the door briskly, even Li could see that Alicia was really in a very happy mood at this time, and even he had a tendency to be infected.

Maybe, going out this time isn't actually such a bad thing? At least the money has arrived.

Lidu didn't know whether this was his truest thought or just self-comfort. I have to say that smiles are indeed very contagious.

but……

"Wait!" Li suddenly thought of something and stopped suddenly, but was still led by Alicia to take two steps forward. It wasn't until Alicia felt something was wrong with the resistance that she took the initiative to stop and looked at Li with a serious face in confusion.

"Li, what's wrong? Did you forget something at home?" Alicia asked in confusion.

"No, that's not the problem..." Li's tone became solemn, and he looked directly into Alicia's eyes, "Miss Alicia, it's your treat this time, right?"

"..." Even Alicia was stunned for a long time because of Li's question. It took two or three seconds to react, and she said resentfully: "Li, I can't see it. In some ways, you are really a helpless person." The man who saves medicine..."
