The orphanage full of nuns standing outside the window gradually fades away.
Mary took out another check from her bag with a six-digit number on it.
The first number is 2.
This check was ten times more than the one she just gave to Sister Leonie!
"Qiang, I haven't congratulated you on your happy wedding yet!"
"Thank you, madam. I am very satisfied with my life now. Everything is fine with us."
Lu Qiang, who is Mary's security supervisor, is also old, his temples are white, but his eyes are still sharp.
He has never used injections, and looks like Mary's elder.
Although his physical fitness is no longer as good as that of young people.
But his experience and alertness were still there, and he did an extremely good job.
So after all these years, he still serves as the security director!
"this is for you."
Mary handed him the check and smiled: "Consider this my gift to you!"
"you sure?"
Lu Qiang glanced at the number on the check. It was a really big, big amount.
"Yes, it's yours." Mary said affirmatively.
"Thank you, ma'am."
Lu Qiang put the check into his pocket and asked, "Do you want to go back to the hotel?"
"Um."
Looking at the monotonous scenery on the street, which seemed to be framed in black and white photos, Mary didn't understand where else to go besides the hotel.
The car stopped in front of the hotel. White Gloves stepped forward to open the door, bowed and said, "Mrs. Li, welcome back!"
"Thank you, Mark." Mary nodded and walked into the hotel lobby with a smile.
Lu Qiang naturally pays the tip, and now this is one of the most frequent tasks that he needs to do every day.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Li." The elevator attendant greeted her.
"Good afternoon, Silent."
As the elevator went up, Lu Qiang asked her about her next arrangements.
"I want to go back to my room and rest first, and then wake me up during dinner time."
"OK."
He personally sent her back to the room, and the bodyguard on the right moved to the elevator, with Lu Qiang taking his original position.
To this day, he has never forgotten his duties.
This is also the reason why he can still stay in the team and occupy an important position.
…
It’s 5:15 pm, 15 minutes before Mary’s scheduled time.
"Annie, how do I look?"
Li Zitao, wearing an old suit and tie from his wedding day, stood in front of the mirror holding a large bouquet of red roses and asked.
"BOSS, I just want to say that you will look down upon me!" Annie praised.
"bingo."
Li Zitao scratched his hair with satisfaction and said, "What you want is to look at you."
"It's time to go now." Holding the red rose, he hid himself behind it.
Li Zitao set out for the hotel restaurant floor, alone.
He didn't want to ruin the surprise he had prepared for his wife because of a group of 'followers'!
At the entrance of the restaurant, the waiter was greeting Mary.
"Did you have a good day?"
"Yes, I had a great time today, thank you."
Arriving at her old place, Mary looked out the window, lost in thought.
Then a large bunch of red, gorgeous and blooming roses appeared at the door.
What the waiting waiter saw was a pair of long legs with a bunch of hot red flowers in full bloom.
And, of course, there was the hotel manager, Konrad Adenauer, who was with him.
"Quiet." Konrad Adenauer said seriously.
After getting the manager's order, he knew that it was best to pretend that he didn't see what happened next.
‘Red Rose’ walked towards the window seat in the middle of the restaurant, which was where Mary was.
When he stopped, Mary smelled the roses too!
"Oh, what a big bunch of roses." Mary stood up, smelled the roses, and asked, "Can you tell me who sent them?"
"Of course, Her Royal Highness the beautiful Princess Adelaide."
The bouquet of roses descended, showing his bright smile: "My loyal knight gives you my sincere greetings!"
When his voice first sounded,
Mary's dim eyes already lit up.
That was a voice she would never forget in her life and miss every day...
"Charlie!"
Mary hugged him excitedly, as for the rose blocking them.
Keep that damn bouquet away, Mary just wants him now.
"We meet again, my princess!"
Holding her waist tightly, Li Zitao asked someone to take the flowers away, feeling the warmth and touch of seeing each other again after a long separation.
…
Flickering candlelight and soft music.
The bright moonlight shines on the dining table, complementing the candlelight.
Li Zitao and his wife sat opposite each other, their right hands clasped tightly on the dining table never leaving.
"Why did you think of coming to Berlin?" Mary was very surprised by his appearance.
"I miss you." No words can match the expression from the heart.
The sound of 'Miss you' made Mary's eyes wet, "I miss you too... and the children."
"So, you should go home early."
The surging emotions in his heart made Li Zitao blush. The relationship between him and his wife was something outsiders could never understand.
They are not only husband and wife, but also comrades, partners and partners.
Just because many things have not been mentioned does not mean they never happened.
Just like Mary resisted the pressure from his mother and family for him, and tried her best to deal with it with the help of the family's strength, accelerating the pace of Li's expansion.
Just like Li Zitao's many adjustments to the family's asset structure, all in order to ensure that the business empire he created would eventually be passed on to his and Mary's children.
"Yes, I should go home."
Mary wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled: "It's just that some things make me confused. I haven't figured out what to do yet!"
"Is it me...or Cape Town?" Li Zitao didn't want to mention it.
But since the Cape Town incident, she has become particularly strange.
"No."
Mary pondered and then changed the topic: "It should be said that it has something to do with it, but it's not entirely true."
"Actually, I've been thinking about these things for a long time, and you...you don't look like you're aging at all, Charlie, and that disturbs me."
Mary said excitedly in a low voice. The pressure this incident brought to her was unimaginable to outsiders.
Just ask an excellent and proud person like her, who will always remain perfect after finding her partner.
But he was gradually aging in front of her, like a withered leaf.
How could Mary accept this?
"Hey honey, look at me...look at me."
Li Zitao held her hand tightly, pointed at his face and said, "It's not perfect, I'm not perfect, nothing in this world is perfect."
"If there is one, it must be you."
"It's you who allowed me to find my destination, it's you who gave me confidence, believed in me unconditionally, and supported me..."
"That's why we have everything we have now, and I mean it."
Li Zitao looked at her with sincere eyes and said from the bottom of his heart: "Maybe I have never said it, but you and I are the most precious treasures in the world."
"If I were a giant ship drifting on the sea, you would be the anchor of this ship. Only you can keep me anchored, forever..."
