Chapter 254 Come, give me a kiss!

There is a saying that is true: a wolf will eat meat after traveling a thousand miles, while a dog will eat shit after traveling a thousand miles.

If you are a talented person, you will shine wherever you go.

Even after coming to London, Eliza's ability is still unparalleled. Not only did she handle all the things Ye Qiu asked her to do properly, but she also found a very good place for herself.

On the north bank of the Thames, near Victoria Street, she rented a single apartment.

The buildings here still follow the most famous street-front townhouses in London, but unlike Victoria Street, which is generally old high-rise townhouses, the apartments along the Thames are relatively short, and Eliza's apartment is only two stories high. From the second floor, you can directly see the entire Thames flowing through the sparse trees on the shore.

And there is a subway station not far away, and the transportation is very convenient, but because of this, the landlord only rents and does not sell.

Ye Qiu has been here several times. After letting the taxi park downstairs, he paid the fare and walked towards the street gate.

It's called a door, but it's actually two anti-theft doors with a doorbell outside.

After pressing the doorbell on the second floor several times and finding no one to open it, Ye Qiu felt a little strange. He had been with Eliza for four years and had never encountered such a thing. He dared to guarantee that something must have happened.

Sometimes when he thought about it, he felt quite ashamed.

They were said to be friends, but after getting married, he and Huang Chu moved to the distant Totteridge to live their own world of two, but left his good friend alone in the city of London. To put it in an unlucky way, no one knew whether he was alive or dead.

While pressing the doorbell downstairs, Ye Qiu called Huang Chu to ask about Eliza, but Huang Chu didn't know, and she was at work, so she couldn't say much, so she asked Ye Qiu to think of a way himself, or just call the police.

Just when Ye Qiu was hesitating whether to call the police, a voice finally came from the doorbell.

"Who is it?" A weak voice came from the doorbell, but Ye Qiu knew it was Eliza as soon as he heard it.

"I, Ye Qiu!" Ye Qiu leaned over to the door, really worried that she couldn't hear him.

Then he heard the door open with a click, and Ye Qiu walked in directly, closed it again, and quickly stepped on the stairs to the second floor.

"Open the door, Eliza!" Ye Qiu knocked on the door on the second floor.

"Wait!" A voice came from inside, and then Eliza's frighteningly pale face appeared in front of Ye Qiu with the door opened. Compared with her usual peach blossom, the difference was too big.

"What's wrong with you?" Ye Qiu walked in and noticed that her eyes were dull.

"I'm sick!" She was simple, and walked directly to the sofa in the living room, hugged the pillow and sat down.

"Have you seen a doctor?" Ye Qiu was relieved when he heard it. Who doesn't have a headache?

Eliza shook her head, "I feel a little dizzy, I don't want to go out, I'll be fine after a good sleep!"

"How long has it been?" Ye Qiu stretched out his hand and put it on her forehead. This intimate action made Eliza stiffen her body and wanted to break free. "Don't move, let me take a look for you, it's a little hot, how long has it been?"

"Since last night!" Eliza pouted, not seeming to be satisfied with his authoritarian attitude.

She didn't even let him see it, but he pretended to be a doctor.

Putting his hand on her forehead to test the body temperature, Ye Qiu initially judged that she had a fever, but the girl refused to go to the hospital, saying that she was afraid of injections.

Oh my god, such a big person is still afraid of injections?

Ye Qiu was a little amused, he was surprised, is the injection so scary?

"What do you care?" Eliza pouted and retorted to him in a bad mood. Now she is less graceful than usual, but more pitiful and weak, especially the way she pouts, very feminine, how can you see it on weekdays?

"If I don't take care of you, who will?" Ye Qiu smiled and shook his head and stood up. "Give me a key to the house later, otherwise, no one will know if you die!"

"Whether I live or die has nothing to do with you?" Eliza was still stubborn. "Besides, I am a girl living alone. Why do you, a married man, want my key? What if you sneak into my house in the middle of the night? What should I do?"

Ye Qiu just stood up and almost fell back. This girl is thinking too much, right?

But after she talked back, Ye Qiu was 100% sure that she just had a fever, no other major problems, and no brain damage. At least she knew how to talk back. "Anyway, give me a key!"

Eliza surprisingly didn't say anything more. She stretched out her long right leg and hooked the drawer of the coffee table in the living room. Because she was wearing a loose nightgown, which only covered a little below her hips, at this moment, stretching her legs to hook the drawer, immediately exposed a pair of pink and jade-like slender legs to the air, as if it was a flawless work of art.

Even Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel a little dazzled, so he quickly collected his mind and reminded himself not to look too much.

"Take it yourself!" The key was in the drawer, and Eliza lay back on the sofa, like a sick beauty.

Ye Qiu walked over, took the key, and muttered, "Okay, now you don't have to worry about me coming to your house in the middle of the night because I have the key!"

The girl heard it and laughed twice, "What are you afraid of? If you have bad intentions, you can take advantage of me now. But let's make a deal first, I'm not as strong as you, and I can't resist you, but you have to be kind to me. Rape is rape, don't use violence!"

Ye Qiu was really laughing and angry. He didn't know that this girl was so sick and still had the energy to say these nonsense. In a fit of anger, he turned around, stretched out his hand, and pinched her face hard, as if he wanted to squeeze out water.

"Ah, you are going to die, it hurts!" Eliza screamed.

Ye Qiu had already taken the key and walked away, "This is to teach you a lesson. Don't think you are a charmer. With your looks, I may not even look at you if you stand naked in front of me. You still want to rape me! You think of it!"

"Tsk!" Eliza was too lazy to refute. She didn't have much energy to fight with this guy now, but there was still a little pain on her face. She didn't know why, but she closed her eyes, as if she was savoring the feeling of the pinch just now.

There was no movement for a long time. Eliza heard the sound of going out and immediately opened her eyes, but saw Ye Qiu closing the door and going out. She opened her mouth to shout, but she didn't shout in the end. Her heart suddenly became empty. Her eyes, which had just recovered a little spirit, became empty again. She curled up, hugged her legs, and supported her chin with her knees, feeling indescribably lost.

Suddenly, she envied Huang Chu so much, because no matter what Huang Chu encountered, Ye Qiu would be by her side to accompany her, support her, and encourage her. No matter what happened, they would face it together because they were husband and wife.

But what about herself? From beginning to end, she was just a lonely person. If it was normal, she would not have this feeling of weakness, but now, she really felt so lonely, as if she needed a man by her side, telling jokes to make her happy, and talking back to add some fun.

Thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in her heart, because some things are destined to have no results!

She didn't dare, and couldn't take the first step, so she could only hide it in her heart and bear it silently!

"Don't be too sad, Eliza, time can make you forget August, and it can also make you forget Ye Qiu!" After saying that, she buried her head in her legs, and took the opportunity to wipe away the only two tears that seeped out of her eyes.

But faintly, she had a feeling that forgetting Ye Qiu was harder than forgetting August, and she didn't know if she could do it.

After more than ten minutes, she also thought about it for more than ten minutes, until the sound of the door opening came again, she turned around and saw Ye Qiu twisting something in his hand, his whole body was wet, holding an umbrella that was still dripping with water, and smiled bitterly at her as soon as he entered the door.

"This damn weather in London, it's raining!" He smiled bitterly, put away the umbrella he bought on the road, and went straight to the kitchen.

She noticed that Ye Qiu was going to buy groceries and prepare something for her. She bit her lower lip secretly and followed Ye Qiu to the outside of the kitchen. "Take off your clothes. I'll help you."

"Can you?" Ye Qiu seemed to be like Columbus who discovered the New World. This girl also has this girl's craft?

Of course, Eliza noticed the surprise in his eyes and glared at him unhappily, "What did I do before?"

Only then did Ye Qiu notice that she seemed to have done fashion design before, and he felt relieved as soon as he thought about it. "Then find me something to wear, so that you don't lust and take the opportunity to covet my body. Just thinking about it makes me feel that I am a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth!"

When Eliza heard him say this, she burst into laughter. She was almost cured, but she pretended that she almost rushed into the kitchen to get a kitchen knife to kill him. She had only heard of men coveting women's bodies, but never heard of women coveting men. This shameless guy talked about how popular he seemed to be. It was so disgusting!

Soon, she took out a nightgown, which she usually wore, but lied to Ye Qiu that it was useless. Anyway, since she came to London, how could Ye Qiu know what nightgown she wore? It was not like when they lived together in Amsterdam before!

Ye Qiu changed his clothes and made some food in the kitchen, and Eliza quickly helped him iron his clothes and waited for food in the restaurant.

"Can you do it? If not, don't show off, otherwise you will ruin the reputation of your Ye Ji snacks!" Eliza praised Ye Qiu's mother's cooking skills, but she was not very confident about Ye Qiu.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I am the direct descendant of the Ye family. This skill is not as good as my mother and A Chu, but at least 80%!" Ye Qiu said with a smile. In Zhang Yuxiu's eyes, Huang Chu's skill in making snacks is at her level. I don't know anything else about this daughter-in-law, but her cooking skills are really talented.

"Is it true?" Eliza was a little skeptical.

Soon, several Ye Ji snacks were placed on the table. They were all relatively simple and easy to make. Ye Qiu couldn't make anything too complicated. Considering that Eliza was sick and hadn't eaten all day, he specially made a flatbread. This is a very famous dish in Ye Ji snacks. However, due to the materials and time, Ye Qiu, the eldest son of the Ye family, was not able to fully demonstrate his skills, but it was almost the same.

Flatbreads have different ways of eating, such as skin, soup, and stuffing. Ye Ji snacks can be said to have gathered the strengths of various families in terms of eating methods. Each way of eating is not outstanding, but it is delicious. Whether it is skin or stuffing, it is very delicious, but Ye Qiu can't make skin and stuffing now, so he didn't show them, only the soup was up to standard.

"I told Ah Chu that she will come over after get off work. I asked her to bring some medicine and give you an injection!" Ye Qiu said with a smile while watching Eliza eat.

"I don't want an injection!" Eliza said with a bulging mouth.

Ye Qiu laughed, "It won't get better without the injection. I even asked her to bring a big syringe for piercing pigs!"

Eliza stopped eating and raised her head fiercely. Her eyes, which had recovered half of their spirit, stared at him maliciously, as if she wanted to throw the bowl of flatbread in front of her directly on his face and scald him to death.

"By the way, Eliza!" Ye Qiu stopped when he saw that it was going well and changed the subject, "I see that this place is also rented. Why don't you just move to Totteridge and live with us!" Ye Qiu was really a little worried about letting a girl live alone outside.

This incident was a lesson. No one knew that she was sick for two days. If it wasn't for Ronaldinho's treat this time, he would not have known that Eliza was sick.

"No, I don't live with you to watch you being affectionate every day. I feel uncomfortable watching you!" Eliza said.

Ye Qiu didn't doubt anything else, and smiled awkwardly. It was because of this inconvenience that he didn't invite Eliza to live with him. Now that he heard her say this, Ye Qiu didn't say much.

"By the way, you told me a few days ago that you wanted to ask me for help. What is it?" Eliza asked suddenly while eating.

Ye Qiu said, "Oh, I hope you can help me go to the United States. You know, there are very few people I can trust. You are the only one who can do this!"

Originally, Ye Qiu asked Chen Zhong for help, and Chen Zhong did help him get started, but he himself has been busy with the affairs of the Huangtian Group and can't split himself, so Ye Qiu thought about it and only Eliza, this period is the Christmas holiday and winter break, she is more free.

And Eliza has always given Ye Qiu a very leisurely feeling, as if she has never been busy.

"Don't flatter me, just say it directly!" Eliza didn't know about this guy's little tail?

Ye Qiu smiled awkwardly, "I asked my friend to help me set up a company in the United States, and I plan to invest in several projects there."

"Oh!" Eliza finally understood, "No wonder you said you had no money when I mentioned the single-family villa community in South Hampstead before. It turns out that you used it for investment, and you didn't dare to let me know. It turns out that you plan to keep it all for yourself!"

"It's not that I don't dare to let you know, but this matter has not been even started yet, and you may not be willing to invest if I tell you, right?" Ye Qiu laughed. Their partnership was in the brokerage company. As for other projects, such as Apple's stocks, they were all Ye Qiu's own. Eliza was just joking on purpose.

"I think you're making a big move this time, right?" Eliza asked.

"Well, the initial investment is over 100 million US dollars!" Ye Qiu nodded. This time, in addition to his recent savings, plus the money he lent to Huangtian Group before, and the cash in Huang Chu's dowry were all invested, and this was just the initial investment.

Eliza took it seriously at this moment, after all, this was related to her two best friends.

"Let's make a deal first. If this thing succeeds, I will buy you a single-family house in South Hampstead. How about that?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

His biggest problem now is that he has no time. If he has enough time, he will definitely go to the United States to take charge in person, because no one knows the future prospects of these investment projects better than him, so he can only let Eliza take charge now.

"Big deal!" Eliza finished eating and regained some strength. Without much hesitation, she nodded and agreed, "But, let's make it clear first. I don't know much about the investments you mentioned. I can't guarantee that they will succeed!"

"Don't worry, I'm here. Just do what I say and you will succeed!" Ye Qiu was full of confidence.

Although a large part of the things in this world are accidental, there are also many things that are inevitable.

After so many years of traveling through time, Ye Qiu knows this better than anyone else, so he is so confident.

While the two were discussing Ye Qiu's investment plan, Huang Chu also came over after get off work. However, she did not bring a syringe as Ye Qiu said, but brought some cold medicine, but more importantly, she brought a bouquet of flowers and a birthday cake.

"Is it your birthday today?" Ye Qiu, who was so heartless, only realized it now.

Eliza was deeply moved by Huang Chu. She had not been remembered for her birthday for a long time. Unexpectedly, Huang Chu actually remembered and bought flowers and cakes. Compared with Ye Qiu, this was really... Well, for the sake of someone's hard work to prepare food, forget it, it's considered equal.

Yeah!

When Eliza took the flowers, she kissed Huang Chu heavily on the face, "I love you so much, Chu!"

Ye Qiu felt that his wife was teased, so he immediately stood up, shamelessly, and moved over, "Happy birthday, Eliza, come, give me a kiss too!" As he said, he patted his face.

But what he didn't expect was that there were two large pieces of cake on both sides, making his head and face covered with cake and cream.

"Achu is here, you dare to tease me in front of me, you deserve it!" Eliza pulled Huang Chu's hand and laughed to add insult to injury.

Huang Chu didn't care at all. The friendship between her, Ye Qiu and Eliza had passed the stage of mutual suspicion. If there was suspicion, Ye Qiu and Eliza would have suspected each other when they rented a house together in Amsterdam, but nothing happened between them. Huang Chu believed in Ye Qiu's feelings for her and Eliza.

Ye Qiu turned into a cake head, but stood there, stretched out his hand to grab a piece of cream from his face, put it in his mouth, and ate it with relish, but complained, "You two are so wasteful. I don't know how many people in the world want to eat but can't. And you even hit me in the face with the cake. You simply don't want to live!"

Before he finished speaking, Ye Qiu had already grabbed the cake with both hands and rushed directly towards the two women standing next to each other.

The final result was that all three of them became cake people.
