Chapter 380: Chapter 379
In an instant.
Nora Goldsmith’s face turned ashen, her pupils dilated, and she glanced at Ivy River in disbelief, screaming, "Ivy River! Ahhhh, you’ve hurt me deeply! My heart aches!"
Before she could say more, Noah Wilson came up and slapped Nora.
"Nora Goldsmith, have I spoiled you too much? What do you want to do, just tell me! I’m so mad, I’m so mad!"
Nora tried hard to dodge, "It’s the boss who told me to scare you, it wasn’t my intention, sigh—A gentleman uses words and not fists, don’t hit my chest!"
"Ow, my proud chest, Noah! If you keep hitting me I’ll get angry, and yet you keep hitting!"
Noah said nothing, just continued to hit her.
Ivy River saw that it was enough and stepped forward to place Nora behind herself, "Enough, Noah, a couple of hits should be enough, if you keep hitting her she’ll end up in the hospital; doctors can’t heal themselves, you know."
Noah was full of rage, "I don’t know, I’m not a doctor, how could I know about these things! All I know now is that I’m very angry, and there’s no outlet for this burning rage."
Nora somehow produced a bottle of mineral water and handed it over, "Here, have some water to cool down."
Noah was disarmed by her cute gesture.
Reluctantly, she spoke, "Alright, I won’t hit you again, but next time you’d better be smart. After all these years, you know what Ivy River’s temperament is like, hoping she’ll save you is like hoping I’ll suddenly become benevolent."
Nora pouted coquettishly, "Who would’ve thought you were actually asleep? I never managed to scare you before, who would’ve thought this time you’d really be frightened."
Ivy River immediately said, "That’s because I was there to protect her, before, she was always alone, so she didn’t feel safe sleeping."
"Oh~ So that’s the reason, I thought it was because Noah was too tired, so she’d sleep like a log when she’s with us."
Nora chuckled, "To put it simply, you’re just too exhausted, so you fall asleep as soon as you hit the bed."
Noah said nothing and grabbed her by the shirt collar, giving her a shake.
"Do you know you were wrong? Still being cheeky, daring to be cheeky in front of me, really itching for a beating, huh! You rascal."
Nora immediately howled, "Well, isn’t it because we give you a sense of security? If it was someone else, you wouldn’t sleep at all, boo-boo, I’m just complimenting you!"
Ivy River promptly interrupted, "Alright, you two stop messing around. Let’s check if there are still people outside, if not, we’ll go out to eat."
Noah frowned, "What do you mean, go disguise, hurry up."
"No need, not many people know me here, I’ll just wear a mask and hat when I go out, don’t worry, I’ll make sure to take protective measures."
Ivy River didn’t want to disguise herself, thinking it too troublesome.
Noah spoke earnestly, "You’ve picked a place with a lot of Chinese people, plus with you and Nora together, what if you’re seen by doctors from back home!"
"I picked this place because there’s a lot of good food here, Chinatown Avenue is next door; if I’m seen, I’ll just pretend I don’t know them and say we’re table-sharing."
Ivy River said with conviction.
Noah was about to say more when Nora interrupted her, "Don’t worry, big sis won’t be found out, I’ll help her with a disguise, trust me."
"Trust you, my foot! You’re always messing things up!"
Nora moved quickly and soon came back with a helmet and full-body protective sunwear.
"Here you go, sis, quickly put your arms in, I’ll help you wear it."
Ivy River looked at it and quite liked it, "Not bad, Nora, you didn’t mess it up this time, give me the link for this sunwear later, no wait, I’ll just keep it."
Nora gave her an incredulous look and exclaimed, "Did you really come from back home? Why do I feel like you just escaped famine from there?"
Ivy River gave her a sidelong glance, "What’s wrong?"
"Nothing, it’s just... this outfit was forwarded from back home, why don’t you try online shopping? Or go out and shop, don’t just do your academic research every day."
Nora suggested out of friendship.
The next second.
Ivy River, dressed, headed for the door.
Noah gave her a helpless look from behind, "You, oh you, really, always hitting the nail on the head, you’ll regret it later."
"Tch, the boss hasn’t seen me in so long, he wouldn’t bear to scold me, besides, we’re going out to eat later, hmph, I don’t believe your trickery."
Nora firmly believed Ivy River wouldn’t reprimand her.
After all, it had been a long time since they’d seen each other.
But until all the food was on the table, Ivy River nonchalantly said, "Nora, go get me a beef patty."
"From where?"
"From Old Seven’s place, isn’t their beef patty the only tasty one nearby?"
Nora was stunned for a moment, "You’re asking me to go? Why not let Noah go?"
"Because Noah isn’t suitable for Chinatown Avenue, her face is too eye-catching, I’m afraid she won’t come back. You’re a good girl; even if they get smitten by you, they wouldn’t do anything bad."
Ivy River added, "Also, if those doctors see Noah, they’ll likely know I’m here since they’ve seen her before."
The last sentence was the most crucial.
"Can’t she wear sunwear and go? Why does it have to be me, boohoo."
Nora reluctantly squirmed in place.
Ivy River shook her head with a smile, "No, be a good girl, baby, quickly go, your sister wants to eat. It’s not often your sister comes to your place, wouldn’t you let her have a decent meal?"
"Okay... I’ll go..."
Nora reluctantly turned to leave, looking back every three steps.
Noah, unable to hold back, burst out laughing the moment she left, "Ivy River, you are just too mischievous! How can you be so naughty, it’s hilarious, once Nora’s on the way, she’ll think, you don’t even love beef that much."
"You’re so chatty; if you want, you can go out to find her, I think you’re a bit too talkative."
Ivy River pointed to the door and began to eat the barbecue.
In Washington, there’s a place with really delicious barbecue, and every time Ivy River comes here, she has to eat it.
This barbecue place is to the north.
The beef patties are to the south.
Driving back and forth takes forty minutes, but walking only takes twenty minutes.
It’s a hub for the Chinese community, with quite a few people.
Additionally, today is a holiday, so cars move even slower.
Noah quickly said, "I’m eating, I’m eating, I’m not that shameless, let Nora handle it alone, I didn’t provoke you."
Twenty minutes later.
Nora stood at the private room door, filled with righteous indignation, "You guys really have no integrity, why did you start eating without me, where’s my favorite potato slices?"
Ivy River innocently smacked her lips, "I ate them, if you want to eat, we can order more, it doesn’t matter."
"Their place is already packed, if I add more barbecue now, it’ll take another half hour, boo-boo, you’re just bullying me, Ivy River!"
Nora tossed the beef patty to Ivy River, "Eat it, I’m watching, if you don’t eat I’ll be mad, I ran all the way from the north to the south for this, wasn’t easy for me!"
"It’s delicious, really delicious, the beef patty my sister bought is the best."
Ivy River calmly opened the beef patty, took a bite, then placed it on the table.
