Chapter 314: Happy New Year

Emily walked to the desk, holding Vincent's hand. She sat down on a chair, opened a book and asked, "I have some puzzles about the book. Can you explain them to me?"

This was not Vincent's purpose of promising Emily everything she wanted.

Vincent smiled in frustration without revealing his thoughts.

"Sure."

"I have questions about other books." Emily leaned forward to look for books, lowering her head. She was so concentrated that she didn't know how attractive she was in Vincent's eyes.

She was wearing a large-size pink nightgown shaped like a rabbit. As she leaned over, Vincent could see her slender neck and fair skin. She wore her long black hair in a bun, leaving a strand of hair on her neck. She looked so attractive.

Vincent lowered his head and kissed Emily's neck. She could feel the tip of his tongue.

Emily flinched and her ears turned red. She said in a trill, "It's itchy. Don't kiss me in that way."

"I won't." He whispered in her ear. Emily could sense his warm breath and immediately felt limp. "Then how do you like my kiss?"

"..."

The guards exchanged glances and silently left.

However, things didn't develop as they expected. Vincent just sat on the chair, hugged Emily and patiently explained the problems to her. The stocks she bought using Harold's account kept plunging. Many stockholders had sold them, but she hadn't decided yet.

Vincent suggested that she should keep watching. If her stocks were to fall below the initial price, she could just take it as a chance to accumulate some experience.

She tried to bear his words in her mind. She somehow felt that the stocks might rise again. However, she wouldn't say anything without solid reason. Vincent continued to recommend her other stocks of new energy, artificial intelligence, and so on. Emily had never heard these new concepts before. She listened attentively even if she didn't fully understand him.

It was one o'clock at midnight when Emily saw Vincent off. It was freezing cold outside. She asked him to stay, but Vincent said he was occupied tomorrow. He kissed her cheek and left.

When Elsie heard the balcony door open, she felt frightened. She got off the bed and rushed to the window. She quietly pulled back a corner of the curtain and saw a tall man jumping down from the balcony.

She quickly took a few photos with her phone, only to capture a blurry figure.

Elsie's father would definitely not believe her after seeing such photos. She had to get a clearer picture, best that of the man's face.

Elsie held her phone and stared at the black figure in the photo. The figure seemed familiar to her but she just couldn't figure out who that was.

Everyone in her family didn't believe her, even her elder brother. Elsie didn't know who to ask for help. Right now, her mother was still locked up and she could only rely on herself.

No, she was not alone. As long as she could see her mother, she would do anything to find help.

However, it was difficult for her to meet her mother. She held her phone and thought of Eliot again. Eliot would definitely help her.

On New Year's Day, Eliot did not go anywhere. He was watching TV in his newly rented apartment. The small company he worked in only gave employees five days off for the festival. He didn't gained many salary or bonuses. Instead, he had to work full time with overtime. It was quite a challenging job.

Eliot intended to send Emily a message to wish her a happy New Year. But he deleted every message before sending. He didn't know how to face her anymore, even though he accepted her hug in the hospital.

She probably didn't know what had happened.

Someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Eliot opened the door. It was the landlord. He was holding a plate with steaming dumplings.

"Hey, young man, we have made more dumplings than we need. These are for you."

"Thank you."

Normally, Eliot would definitely refuse. He believed that there was no free lunch and told Emily so. In Eliot's life philosophy, if someone helped him for nothing, he must be careful of that person's conspiracy.

In fact, Sydnee begged the landlord to send the dumplings to Eliot.

He sat on the coffee table and began eating. There were all kinds of fillings. He started to feel that the dumplings were not made by the landlord. A middle-aged man would like the new-style ones. Suddenly, something occurred to him. He quickly grabbed the key and rushed out of the apartment. When he came out, he saw a car driving out of the entrance of the neighborhood.

It was Sydnee's car.

Eliot returned and ate all of the dumplings. He washed the plate and waited for another 20 minutes. He thought Sydnee should be home by now and sent a message to her, "Thank you."

Sydnee never expected that Eliot would figure everything out. She wasn't sure why Eliot said thanks. She pretended to know nothing and replied, "What for?"

Eliot simply called her, "I just ate the dumplings sent by the landlord. What's inside includes celery, burnt leeks, carrots, corn, shrimp, winter melon, beef, purple sweet potatoes, green beans, red beans and so on."

Sydnee felt embarrassed. She randomly picked one plate. No wonder the dumplings she ate only had beef inside. She did not dare to say anything. She had secretly brought the dumplings out, saying they were for a friend.

"Very delicious." Eliot sounded calm. "There was also a coin inside one dumpling."

That was supposed to be Sydnee's New Year luck!

Sydnee almost burst out crying, but she forced a smile, "Sounds good. The landlord is nice to you."

"Yes."

They chatted for a while. Eliot smiled and said, "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year to you, too."

Sydnee hung up and buried her face in the sheets. She regretted giving Eliot the dumplings when thinking that he had gotten the lucky coin.

She was counting on the coin to obtain good luck in this New Year.

But it occurred to her that Eliot seemed to be much more unlucky.. She felt a sense of relief.
