"Oh..." Evelyn nodded in a daze, and then applied it in a hurry.
She put on her shoes. Although she still felt a little uncomfortable, it was much better than before.
She smiled, thinking that it would be easy for her to hold on until night.
"How do you feel?" Benjamin asked.
Evelyn nodded, "Much better. Thank you."
Benjamin nodded slightly and stared at Evelyn for a while. Then he glanced at the shoes she had put on. After a long while, he said, "You'd better not wear the shoes that don't fit your feet anymore. When you bought them, you should measure them first and see if they were suitable. Otherwise, you are the one who will suffer."
Originally, Evelyn had calmed down a little. Hearing his words, she felt hot again.
Did she need him to remind her? She was just deceived by that sales lady, wasn't she? Wasn't she the victim?
However, she could distinguish the good from the bad. Although something unpleasant had happened between them, he helped her twice that day. She didn't ask him to help her, but she appreciated his kindness.
She was about to nod, but she suddenly stopped.
What he said and his tone of speech were strange...
She always felt that his words were meaningful!
She raised his head and looked at Benjamin with inquiring eyes.
Benjamin didn't avoid her eyes. He looked back at her and even smiled at her gently.
"You..." Evelyn thought for a moment and asked, "You're not talking about my shoes, are you?"
Benjamin didn't answer her, but glanced at her meaningfully and turned to walk into the hotel.
"Hey!"
Benjamin stopped and turned around to look at Evelyn, "Is there anything else?"
Evelyn pursed her lips. Originally, she wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, but after thinking about it, she thought that it was unnecessary.
Whether he was talking about her shoes or not, it was not a big deal. She could forget what he said and didn't have to take it seriously.
"Well... Are you really surnamed Cheng?"
Benjamin did not speak but looked at her blandly. Seeing this, Evelyn touched her nose, "When we were proposing a toast just now, those people call you Mr. Cheng. Moreover, Elizabeth's husband calls you Ben."
H H
"Ahem." Evelyn said with embarrassment, "I don't mean anything else. I just think that I still owe you money. It doesn't seem to be ridiculous for me to know your full name, right?"
As soon as she finished her words, she explained in a hurry, "But don't worry. I won't do anything to you."
Although she didn't have any bad intention, Benjamin wouldn't think so. If he thought that she asked his full name in order to seduce him like some other women, she would really be wronged.
"Yeah." Benjamin nodded.
"Oh."
"My name is Benjamin Cheng. Remember it!" Benjamin added.
Evelyn replied repeatedly, "I see. I didn't know your surname before, and Elizabeth just told me that she called you 'Benjamin'. Alright, I know it now. Thank you."
Hearing this, Benjamin raised his eyebrows and smiled tenderly.
He just told her his name, but she thanked him.
However, Benjamin said, "When did I ask you to give me the money?"
"Huh?" Evelyn was stunned for a moment, and then she got overjoyed, "You don't want the money?"
Oh god! How lucky she was! He actually didn't want her money!
Just as she was about to thank him and say that he was really a good man, he said, "I told you at the beginning that I hadn't thought about the compensation yet."
"..."
Evelyn was taken aback and suddenly didn't know how to react.
D*mn it! She thought that she was a lucky dog, but it turned out that it was just her wishful thinking.
"Well..." Evelyn calmed down a little, "Have you... made up your mind?"
Benjamin looked at Evelyn, "Not yet."
Evelyn was dumbfounded again, "It has been a long time, hasn't it? Why haven't you made up your mind?"
"I'm not in a hurry."
Evelyn frowned and thought, "You are not in a hurry, but I am!"
"Let's talk about it later." Benjamin paused and then added, "When I make up my mind."
"You won't ask me for too much, will you?"
Benjamin did not speak anymore. He only gave her a meaningful look and then took the lead in leaving.
