Chapter 149 Julian Has Long Discovered
Alexander frowned when he saw the table full of dishes. As expected, he found the ready-to-eat sandwich tasted even more awful. But in order to find Joseph by following them, he chose to suck it up After taking two more bites of the sandwich, it suddenly occurred to him that he didn’t need to eat it at all. He could wait for Julian and Annalise to leave and then order a table full of great food to enjoy. Anyway, he had hired someone to watch them.
Thinking of that, he cursed and rolled down the window to throw the ready-to-eat sandwich out. Abigail was surprised. “Alexander, what’s wrong?” “We’ll go to order some food later,” Alexander said. “Sure!” Abigail was overjoyed. She rolled down the window and tossed the sandwich out without hesitation.
However, Bobby thought that the sandwich tasted pretty good and ate it up very quickly. Annalise could barely finish half of the food on the table. There were 12 dishes and one soup. The two of them wouldn’t be able to eat all of them. Annalise was completely full.
She joked, “I couldn’t take another bite. There is no room anymore. Why don’t we rest for half an hour before continuing this? Haha, when I was young, I ate a lot. Sometimes, I could finish three plates of spaghetti. And I would be so stuffed that I couldn’t move. I would just lay on the couch in the living room and rub my stomach.
“I once had a fever because I ate too much. While giving me acupuncture, Joseph nagged me that I could only eat one plate of spaghetti in the future. “Later, whenever I wanted to eat more spaghetti after finishing one plate, Joseph would cover the pot and stop me.”
“I’ll also do the same in the future. You could only eat one plate at most.” Julian looked at Annalise dotingly. He liked it when she shared with him interesting episodes in her formative years. From her stories, he could imagine her happy childhood and feel her gratitude and love for her mentor.
“Don’t be so cruel,” grumbled Annalise while looking at Julian with bitterness. “Haha, let’s go for a walk for digestion.” Julian stretched his hand out to the woman. Annalise ate two more mouthfuls of soup before giving her hand to Julian. Afterward, the two of them went out for a walk.
The strawberry garden and the farmhouse were relatively large. Although it was a rural village, the houses there were beautifully built like a villa. A few buildings at the back of the farm were turned into guesthouses. Julian had booked one and specially instructed the staff that it must be clean and hygienic.
After walking for a bit, they would go to the guesthouse to rest. Seeing them leaving, the spy hurriedly paid his bill and left without eating. He thought they would go to the car. Unexpectedly, they walked towards the field. It was past six in the afternoon. The sky was not completely dark yet, and the couple was walking on the ridge.
As someone who grew up in the countryside, Annalise could walk at a brisk pace on a ridge that was less than half a meter wide. On the other hand, Julian was not as agile as Annalise when walking on the ridge despite the fact that he had a great sense of balance.
Annalise strode along a ridge with her arms open. As she turned back and walked in the direction of Julian, she deliberately stumbled a little to play a joke on him. “Oh my god, I’m going to fall.”
Julian was really afraid that she would fall down, so he quickly rushed over to help her To his surprise, Annalise giggled. “I was just teasing you.”
“Knock it off,” Julian said. “If you fall down, you’ll be covered in dirt.”
“Haha, I won’t fall.” Annalise laughed and suddenly squatted down. “Eh, look, there are fish here.” Julian came over to take a look and saw small fish seedlings swimming in the water in the field.
With a focused expression on her face, Annalise stretched out her hand, reached over slowly, and swiftly grabbed the fish. However, she caught none. She said, “These small fish are very smart. When we were young, we would put the bait in a bamboo basket to catch them. We could catch about 500g to 1kg in one. afternoon. After that, we would sun-dried them and fried them with green peppers. It tastes like heaven and that’s our favorite snack.” Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
It was a very common dish, but when Annalise said it, it sounded very appetizing. Julian was looking forward. to her making it for him when she was free one day.
He even pictured in his mind that when they were old and the children were out to make their marks, the two of them would build a small manor in the countryside, with a garden, a vegetable farm, and a fish pond.
When the weather was nice, they would bask in the sun in the courtyard, allowing time to pass slowly while they were enjoying each other’s company in the wonderful days of their lives.
When the spy saw that Julian and Annalise went to the field instead of going to the parking lot, he was quite surprised. ‘What’s wrong with them? It’s getting dark and they’re still not leaving? “Don’t tell me they want to stay here for the night? “But this doesn’t make sense. They could go anywhere with a car.
‘Or are they not good at driving, so they don’t dare to drive in the outskirt at night? Suddenly, he saw Annalise and Julian squatting down. From afar, their posture looked very strange. He couldn’t help but mutter, “Fuck, are they pooping?” He frowned immediately. “Could it be that there is only one toilet in the village and they can’t stand the smell? That’s why they poop in the fields?
“Fuck, this is so shameless!” Not long after, Julian and Annalise stood up. In shock, the spy immediately turned around to prevent the couple from noticing that he was following them.
Julian caught a glimpse of the spy and understood everything instantly. He retracted his gaze and led Annalise back from the field, brushing past the spy. He even deliberately made his way to the parking lot. After walking to the car, he pressed the key and the car beeped. Then, he opened the door and sat in the driver’s seat. The spy’s car was parked in another direction, more than ten meters away from Julian’s car.
Seeing Julian get into the driver’s seat, he immediately pretended that he was leaving too. He opened the door, got into the car, and even started the engine, waiting to drive the car out at any minute.
Unexpectedly, Julian came out of the car with a bag. He locked the door and led Annalise to the guesthouse at the back. “They are really staying here?” The spy quickly took a photo and sent it to his boss.
Alexander cursed inwardly when he saw the photo. “I’m about to starve to death and they actually plan to stay overnight here. This is so annoying!” The spy asked Alexander if he should continue to keep an eye on Julian. Alexander replied, [Your mission is to keep watching them.]
The spy immediately texted back. [Yes.] Alexander looked at their rented pickup truck and checked the map on his phone. His brows furrowed. The nearest lodging place was the farmhouse. If he wanted to stay in a hotel, he had to return to the city and it was an hour’s drive.
He was caught in a dilemma. If he stayed in a hotel, he would need to drive back to the strawberry garden tomorrow. If he didn’t go to the city, he would have no place to stay. Abigail saw that Alexander’s expression darkened. She asked softly, “Alexander, are we going to stay in the car like this? This is tiring.”
