In the morning, while Sherry was still dreaming, she was awakened by the doorbell.
She buried her head in the quilt, trying to block out the sound, but the doorbell didn't seem to stop but
continued to ring.
She picked up the phone and checked the time, and saw that the courier called her twenty minutes
ago.
After rolling on the bed several times, she reluctantly got up.
She held her breath, walked to the door dizzily, opened the door and said, “I'm sorry, I fell asleep. I
didn't hear...”
“Morning.”
As the voice of the incoming person rang out, Sherry paused for a while, and instantly came to her
senses.
She rubbed her eyes, looked at the person in front of her, and said incredulously, “Why is it you?”
Daniel didn't understand very well, and looked sideways, “Apart from me, who else?”
“I…”
She picked up the phone again, and saw that the courier sent her a text message, saying that she had
not answered the phone, and he would go to another place to deliver the parcel and come back later.
She took a breath, looked at Daniel again, and asked angrily in an instant, “Why are you here?”
Daniel lifted the paper bag in front of him and said, “I’m bringing you breakfast.”
Sherry, “...”
“Not to mention whether this breakfast is necessary, don't you have my password? Why do you have to
wake me up and open the door for you?”
Daniel said, “Considering our current relationship, I think it would be impolite for me to enter your house
directly.”
Was it polite to wake her up?
Daniel said, “Eat your breakfast before going to bed.”
Sherry said, “Thank you, no need.”
Just as she was about to close the door, Daniel reached out and blocked the door, “Your mother
explained to me that you have a habit of skipping breakfast. She asked me to watch you eat every
morning.”
What?
Is she not awake? Why did she not have the slightest impression that he had talked to her mother
about it the other day when he came to her house?
Seeing her doubts, Daniel said, “Yesterday, after you left, I came to your house again.”
“I thought I told you to...”
Daniel said, “It was your father who called and asked me to come over. They told me to take good care
of you when you returned to City N.”
Sherry said, “Oh, they just wanted to bring me and you closer, you don't need to pay attention to this.
You will not meet in the future anyway, there is no need...”
Daniel asked, “Did you say something to your mother?”
Sherry was confused and asked in return, “What?”
“I thought yesterday, when she looked at me, there was some killing intent in her eyes, and she was
not that kind to me anymore.”
Sherry really felt that she has not woken up and was a little confused.
She had told her mother the night before that there was someone she liked, but she didn't say anything
specific, just said that although she liked that person very much, they couldn't be together. He was a
celibatarian.
Just these scattered pieces, and she absolutely didn’t say that the person was Daniel.
She looked at him suspiciously, “You must be lying to me, right?”
Daniel raised his eyebrows, “What did I lie to you for? They told me to watch you eat breakfast and
take good care of you. If you don't eat, I'll call your father and say that my task has not been
completed.”
She quickly took the breakfast from him, “I'll eat it myself, thank you! Your task is complete.”
While speaking, she immediately closed the door.
Daniel was dumbstruck, well kind of, by the slam.
After standing at the door for a while, he rubbed his nose and left.
This kind of thing has to be done slowly and not in a hurry.
Inside the house, Sherry was sitting on the sofa, calling her mother while eating breakfast.
After the call was connected, she said cautiously, “Mom, what are you doing?”
Her mother said, “I'm exercising outside. Spit it out!”
Sherry took a bite of the sandwich and said, “Uh, Daniel came to bring me breakfast just now. He said it
was because of you and dad. You need to tell him not to come. It's not nice to bother others.”
Her mother took the phone and walked to a quieter place, “What's the trouble? He did what he was
willing to do. It was not that I forced him with a knife.”
That tone, sure enough...
Sherry hesitated and said, “Mom, you...”
“Okay, stop.” Her mother got angry when she said this, “You really thought you can deceive your
mother as deceiving a child. There was someone you like, and the standard of your blind date is
someone who is tall, someone who can play music, and needs to be mixed race. And then suddenly
there was just one who is suitable in every aspect, and he appeared in front of me and your father.
Think about it with your brain and anyone can figure it out.”
“It seemed like you already knew.”
Her mother said, “Of course I know! You think I'm your dad who is so happy all day long and really think
he’s the one for you. He tries his best to match you up."
“Then... you didn't tell him?”
She said angrily, “How can I tell him that the person you like is Daniel, and he is a celibatarian, and that
you two are not together just keep things vague, which will definitely drive your father crazy.”
Sherry whispers, “Then let’s not tell him.”
On the other end of the line, her mother lowered her voice and asked, “Your... Was it with him?”
She didn't get it at the moment and asked, “What?”
Her mother said, “The thing in your clothes!”
Sherry blushed instantly and shouted, “Mom!”
Hearing her voice, her mother also had an answer in her heart.
Her mother was so angry that she didn't want to speak. Then she said, “Okay, okay, I'm the one who
should be mad. Sometimes I envy your dad who doesn't know anything. He even regarded Daniel as
his rare drinking buddy and they chatted so happily. He couldn't put down the two bottles of wine that
Daniel brought him yesterday, and he almost went to sleep with it at night.”
She added, “I warn you, tell him clearly, if he is really the kind of person who doesn't want to get
married and only wants to play with you, stay away from him as soon as possible and don't see him
again.”
“Actually, I was far away from him and it was you brought him home again...”
“I... I didn't know that back then! Anyway, I don't think he's reliable, so you have to find someone else to
make him give up.”
“I know. I'll take care of it.”
Her mother sighed heavily. “I just don't know what to say to you. Obviously, you are such a beautiful
and nice girl. But you always meet bad boys. I have to find a good one for you this time.”
“Mom, don't introduce others to me. This kind of thing is kind of strange. The more anxious you are, the
harder you will find good ones. Maybe when you give up, surprises will come inadvertently.”
Her mother sneered, ignored her, and hung up the phone directly.
