Chapter 48 No One Will Really Overestimate Himself Like This
There was a small restaurant that they could afford it near the museum.
At noon, they had noodles in the restaurant.
After the lunch, on the way to the bus stop, Lloyd's cell phone suddenly rang.
Ebony was walking in front, turned back when she heard the ring, and looked at Lloyd.
Lloyd took out his mobile phone, finding the caller ID was unfamiliar. He got the mobile phone from the show team, and there were only the phone numbers of guests in it.
Lloyd put the phone to his ear.
"Who's that?"
A woman's soft voice came over the phone, "Is it Mr. Vasquez? I'm Belinda."
Lloyd frowned.
Ebony stood opposite him and asked curiously, "Who? Is that Teri?"
Lloyd didn't reply to Ebony, and said to Belinda, "What's the matter?"
Belinda responded aggrievedly, "Victor and my mobile phoned were stolen yesterday, and then we called the police. Today the police contacted us and said that the thief was found. But Victor and I were not good at the foreign language, so we couldn't communicate well with the police. The show crew said it was our own business, and there was no translator to help us, so I thought you could help us. Can you come and help us? Please!"
When Lloyd heard this, his face became somewhat gloomy.
Ebony was standing opposite with her hands in her pockets, asking, "Isn't it Teri?"
Lloyd put down the phone and said, "It's Belinda."
Ebony was stunned, then turned around and said, "You go on." Then she was about to go to the bus stop.
But her slender wrist was suddenly held by Lloyd. As Ebony turned around, a mobile phone was put in her hand, and Lloyd walked in front of her, saying, "You pick it up."
"Is someone looking for me?" Ebony held the phone in doubt.
Hesitantly, she put the phone to her ear, "Hello?"
There was silence over there.
After a long while, a woman's voice came, "Is it Miss Gibson? I'm Belinda, where is Mr. Vasquez?"
Ebony frowned and said to Lloyd, "She wants to talk with you. Why did you give me the phone?"
Lloyd said with an expressionless face, "You are charge of the family affairs."
Ebony, "..."
She knew what he meant. He thought she was in charge of the team's affairs.
But his words still sounded weird.
Ebony put the phone to her ear again, and asked Belinda, "What's the matter with you?"
Belinda was in a silence again.
After a while, Belinda's a little cold but comparably calm voice sounded again. She repeated the matter.
"Police station?" Ebony looked at her watch and said, "We have to go to a scenic spot in the afternoon, and we don't have time to go to the police station. You can borrow someone's mobile phone and download a translation software to translates in real time. This method can be used in an emergency when traveling abroad in the case of poor communication."
Ebony thought she had given a very effective solution.
But Belinda seemed to be a little impatient, and asked, "Can I have a word with Mr. Vasquez?"
Ebony pouted and threw the phone back to Lloyd, "Pick it up."
Lloyd took the phone, looked at her, and hung up.
Ebony stared at the phone screen in astonishment.
Lloyd put the phone in his pocket and walked towards the bus stop.
Ebony chased after him, looked sideways at his expression, and asked inexplicably, "You hung up like this?"
Lloyd's tone was frisk, "Your method is very good. I don't think I can come up with a better one."
"But..." Ebony fondled her own face in curiosity, "She obviously wants you to come."
Lloyd didn't speak.
Seeing him like that, Ebony sneered in her heart.
At this moment, he thought of staying away from the actress? He finally knew it would be hard to explain when he went home? So why did he force her to wear gloves just now?
He's really weird.
He didn't get any call again after that. In the afternoon, they went to another scenic spot and returned to the hotel at around 6 o'clock in the evening.
Teri and Jacob had not returned.
Ebony called Teri and asked if she would come back to have dinner together. Teri said that she and Jacob had eaten outside the scenic spot.
After hanging up the phone, Ebony went to knock on Lloyd's door, "Dine together?"
Lloyd stood in the room and looked at her suspiciously.
Ebony smiled, "I won't force you to eat the gift biscuits again. On the way to the hotel, I saw a snack street nearby. It may not expensive. Would you like to go?"
Lloyd walked back to the room, took his coat, and came out with her.
The snack street was full of people and everything looked very tempting and mouth-watering.
Lloyd stopped several times for attractive food, but Ebony in front of him never stopped. It seemed that no food was her type, Lloyd had to keep up with her.
In the end, Ebony finished watching the entire snack street, then turned to Lloyd and said, "There's nothing delicious here, why don't we continue to eat biscuits?"
Lloyd, "..."
His eyebrows knitted in a frown. He looked at her and pointed to a vendor next to them, saying, "I like that."
Ebony took a brief glimpse and said seriously, "No, it's unsanitary."
Lloyd glanced at the price list and begged, "I'll choose the cheapest ones."
Ebony still shook her head, "The cheapest one costs four dollars."
Lloyd, "..."
Ebony sighed with a look of regret to take him out, "I didn't expect the food here to be not cheap. Let's go back, darling. I will definitely buy tasty food for you next time."
Lloyd, "..."
[Is this woman a devil?]
[My tears are worthless, I cried so loudly.]
[Buy it for him now! Feed him! Please feed him!]
[She's doing the same thing as my mom, promising to buy something for me next time, and never bought it for me again!]
Ebony coaxed Lloyd away from the snack street. When they was about to go back, Ebony suddenly saw a sushi restaurant on the street.
There was a board hanging on the door of the sushi restaurant, the words of which probably meant that whoever could win the knife skills competition with the boss could get a luxurious and noble sushi set.
Ebony's eyes lit up instantly, and she said to Lloyd, "Dinner is coming! Dinner is coming! Come on!"
Lloyd frowned and stared at the board for a while before walking in.
From the outside, the sushi restaurant looked quite low-key, but customers inside were in a great number.
[Wow, this is Delish Sushi. It's very famous in Steeldale. This is the main store, and there are many branches in other cities.]
[This board and competition are still there! I saw it on my last trip to Sleeldale.]
[As a foreign student in Steeldale, I tell you that the board has always been there for more than a year, but no one has ever won the competition.]
[The owner of Delish Sushi is the champion of the world sushi competition. Isn't it a fool to challenge him?]
[Knife skills competition is not a challenge to make sushi. This competition is actually a gimmick to promote the reputation of the restaurant. No one will really challenge the boss. No one will really overestimate himself like this!]
[I almost laugh to death, Ebony thinks she can do it? She is too young to naive.]
