Wolf President Hooks Up

Chapter 282: Such a Strange Customer

Elaine couldn't make Oliver change his mind, so she and Oliver walked into the supermarket that wasn't very big.

Half of the people in the supermarket were living in the neighborhood. Even if some of them didn't know Elaine, they had met her before.

...

Elaine looked at Oliver who was pushing the shopping cart beside her, her forehead covered with cold sweat.

A lot of people were looking at them!

"Elaine, is this your boyfriend? He looks so handsome. He seems quite rich."

"Elaine, are you getting married? Your future husband looks pretty good."

"Elaine, your boyfriend looks pretty fit. He looks like a movie star!"

Some familiar neighbors began to make small talk.

Of course, they all glanced at Oliver. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

How smooth his skin was...!

What charming eyes...!

His lips were pink, making people want to kiss him....

Elaine really couldn't hold on any longer.

Cold sweat trickled down her cheeks.

"Oliver."

"Huh?" Oliver slowly looked up at the girl beside him. "What?"

Elaine pouted and said,

"How about I push the cart?"

That dirty shopping cart did not match a perfectly-groomed man like Oliver.

"Let me do it. It is what I should do as a gentleman. Just choose what to buy. By the way, let me see the list of things you need."

Hearing that, Elaine immediately took her mind off the cart and began to rummage in her pockets.

"Thank you for bringing it to my attention. The list is very important."

Elaine found the shopping list and handed it to Oliver.

At the sight of it, Oliver couldn't help but laugh.

"Elaine, your handwriting is so bad.... It looks like little bugs crawling."

Elaine was a little miffed.

There was nothing she could do about it. She has tried very hard to improve her handwriting. Although her handwriting wasn't the best, it was not bad.

How could it look like little bugs in Oliver’s eyes?

She was very depressed....

Elaine didn’t know what to say.

"What is this? Phonetic transcriptions?"

...

Oliver frowned and looked at the list seriously.

Elaine was shocked and beads of sweat immediately dripped down.

It was really awkward.

She suddenly forgot how to spell lettuce. She was very anxious, so she used phonetic transcriptions....

"That's ... lettuce...."

"Lettuce? Elaine, you're really interesting. It’s so cute."

Oliver could no longer hold back convulsive laughter. He felt sincerely happy.

Elaine's face darkened as she puffed out her cheeks.

Damn it!

What was Oliver laughing at?

It upset Elaine!

‘So what if my writing looks like bugs? So what if I use phonetic transcriptions?’

Didn’t Oliver know he would get ugly if he laughed too much?

He even laughed his head off.... How could a handsome man laugh like this?

According to the list, they went to buy things.

They looked like newlyweds.

When Elaine was choosing the meat and vegetables, she put the awkwardness in the background and focused on distinguishing the good from the bad.

"I don't want this one. It is stale. I want that one. It's the one below. Yes, yes, it's that one."

"We can’t take these vegetables. Oliver, you see, the leaves have withered. They are not fresh anymore."

"Oliver, you go buy the bean sauce. Remember to check the date of production. Take the newest one!"

"Do you like mushrooms? Shall we buy some?"

Elaine was so verbose.

Oliver smiled and did whatever Elaine's said.

When Elaine paid the bill, her eyes widened in shock.

"We have spent so much! I don't think I bought a lot of things. How come it is over 400 yuan?"

She hated to part with her money....

Oliver took out his wallet and said in surprise,

"So cheap! To buy so many things only cost 400. Miss, I wonder if you made a mistake adding up the bill."

...

Many of the people standing behind Oliver broke out in cold sweat.

How could there be such a strange customer...?

Oliver walked out of the supermarket with bags and Elaine.

"Give me some. You must be very tired to carry so many bags. Give me two bags."

Elaine reached out her hand to take the bags.

Oliver dodged and smiled, "It's not very heavy. How can I let a woman carry things? It’s so humiliating!"

Elaine was embarrassed. "Thank you, Oliver."

Oliver looked at Elaine and smiled. "Thank me? For what?"

"Thank you for paying. Thank you for carrying the groceries."

Oliver paused for a moment before he burst into laughter.

"Elaine, you don’t have to pay when I’m with you. Just take it so for granted. Besides, men should carry the heavy stuff. Actually..."

Sadness flashed across Oliver's face and he paused for a moment.

"Actually what?"

Elaine looked at Oliver curiously.

It was not fair! What was the world coming to? How could all those rich men be so handsome?

So was Bad-bear Smith, Oliver, Lucas, and even Jasper.

Oliver lowered his head and smiled bitterly. Then he slowly said,

"Actually ... I should thank you.... This is the first time I've felt so warm...."

Maybe it’s unbelievable. This is the first time I've been shopping in such a crowded supermarket. It's also the first time I’ve chosen the vegetables carefully.

When I picked things out with you, I felt very warm.

I've never been so happy.... For real, Elaine, I should thank you."

(⊙_⊙) Elaine tilted her head and stared blankly at Oliver.

What had this handsome man experienced before?

Why was his tone so sad?

...

He was so rich. He had been living an affluent life since childhood. He was always the focal point of his family. What else made him so sad?

Could it be ... that his family was as cold and heartless as those rich families in movies?

Elaine immediately felt very sorry for Oliver.

She jabbed Oliver's arm with hers and smiled,

"Then we can shop together more often. If you have time, come to my house and I will treat you to a home-cooked meal."

Oliver's eyes lit up. He nodded,

"You can't take that back. Don’t drive me away when I go to your place."

Oliver smirked as he blinked at Elaine.

(⊙o⊙)...

Why did she suddenly feel like ... she was doing herself a disservice?

When Oliver and Elaine returned to the Jones’, Hazel and Sally even complained that Elaine was too slow.

"We're starving to death!"

Hazel shouted with a frown as she was fighting the monsters with all her might.

Sally added, "That's right, Elaine. Didn't you say that you are good at cooking? Why are you moving so slowly?"

Elaine was so angry that she puffed up her cheeks and shouted,

"How can you be so mean to me? Aren’t we celebrating my discharge from the hospital? But only I am running around! I won’t cook!"

Oliver couldn't help but chuckle. He touched Elaine's hair lightly and advised,

"Okay, okay. This is your home. They are guests. I'll help you. Let's go wash the vegetables."

(⊙o⊙)...

Hazel and Sally were both dumbfounded. They turned around and looked at Oliver who was rolling up his sleeves in preparation for cooking.

What an amazing woman! Elaine hooked up with a handsome man as him in such a short time?

Moreover, it was such a rich and handsome man!

It started a catfish effect....

Hazel and Sally immediately went to help Elaine. They became diligent just because of this charming man.

...

They stuffed themselves full of food.

After dinner, they played poker. Elaine and Oliver were a team, and Sally and Hazel were the other. They had a tight game.

It was over ten o'clock, and they bid farewell to Elaine.

Of course, Oliver hated to leave the most.

"Oliver, can you send Hazel and Sally home?"

Elaine had begun to make arrangements.

Sally had always wanted to fix Oliver up with Elaine, so she teased, "Don't worry about us. Let Master Young stay alone with you for a while. He has been waiting for this all night."

Elaine blushed, while Oliver smiled and looked at Elaine.

"What nonsense? We are all good friends. Why does only he stay? Oliver, send them back."

Oliver nodded, "Okay, I promise."
