Memories Of The Night Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Carefully Deals With Him

On the way back, they pa.s.s by an amus.e.m.e.nt park.

It's the biggest amus.e.m.e.nt park in Hadley City and one of Katrina's original travel plans. But the incident happened, and Aaron caught her before she could go and have fun.

Leaning against the window, Katrina gazes longingly at the crowd at the gates of the amus.e.m.e.nt park. There are young parents with their children, affectionate student couples, and best friends.

Although everyone looks ordinary, Katrina envies them in particular. She envies their freedom and their ability to be with their family, loved ones, and friends.

A month ago, she was just like them, enjoying a trip to the city with her best friend.

But now…

Like a canary in a cage, she lost her freedom and didn't even have the luxury of calling her friends and family to say h.e.l.lo.

Aaron naturally sees Katrina's longing look as she gazes outside.

Although he isn't very interested in these lively and childish amus.e.m.e.nt parks, he pulls over to the side of the road when he notices that she likes it.

As Katrina looks at him with some confusion, Aaron pushes the door open and gets out of the car. Walking around to the pa.s.senger seat, he opens the door and pulls Katrina out of the car.

At Aaron's actions, Katrina looks at him with great perplexity.

Aaron takes her hand, interlacing his fingers with hers like the other young couples, and leads her to the amus.e.m.e.nt park.

With his other hand, he holds Beta's leash.

Aaron is naturally handsome, with deep and attractive features, perfect without any flaws. He's tall and straight, with a touch of aristocracy that makes him seem to stand out.

In the crowd, he s.h.i.+nes naturally, always attracting everyone's attention at once. When such a man with such a good appearance and temperament walks in the crowd, people can't help looking at him.

"That man is so handsome!"

"He's even more stylish than the current hottest celebrity. Is he a budding star?"

"The suit he's wearing is a limited-edition Armani, and he looks very rich!"

There's a lot of speculation about him. Aaron is used to people's attention, but as an ordinary person, Katrina can't stand being the center of everyone's attention. She just wants to find a hole to hide in.

Fortunately, many vendors in the amus.e.m.e.nt park sell all kinds of snacks, toys, and accessories.

Katrina sees a stall in front of them selling hats and sungla.s.ses, and she quickly pulls Aaron over. She wears a pair of big sungla.s.ses on the bridge of her nose and a fas.h.i.+onable hat on her head, which not only covers her face but also blocks the suns.h.i.+ne. The summer sun can be a bit harsh.

Seeing the fully-armed Katrina, Aaron thinks that the round sun hat looks silly but a bit lovely.

Aaron simply chooses a pair of sungla.s.ses to wear. When he wears cheap sungla.s.ses, he looks like he's wearing a pair of sungla.s.ses from a big international brand.

The peddler side can't help praising, "Gentleman, you really have a good taste. The pairs of sungla.s.ses you both picked are for lovers!"

The man is handsome, and the woman is beautiful. Wearing the same kind of sungla.s.ses makes the couple look really well-matched.

Katrina is adjusting the hat in front of the mirror when she suddenly hears the vendor's words. She almost spits a mouthful of blood.

She and Aaron are once again mistaken for lovers.

But she's out with Aaron, both of them are single, and he takes her by the hand without her permission. It would be strange if they aren't misunderstood as a couple.

Although Katrina doesn't want to be mistaken for Aaron's girlfriend, she doesn't bother to explain.

Aaron is in a good mood. After choosing the items, he asks, "How much?"

"The pair of sungla.s.ses is $60 each, and the hat is $50, a total of $170."

So cheap? That's not expensive for Aaron, who's used to luxury. He takes out his wallet and prepares to pay.

Katrina grew up in an ordinary and impoverished environment. She knows the actual prices of these items.

The quality of sungla.s.ses and sun hats sold in the scenic spot isn't good at all, and the price the hawker gave is absolutely high. If they give in to the vendor, it would be wasteful.

"Please give us a discount!" Katrina uses her advantage and begins to bargain.

"Well... The pair of sungla.s.ses is $45 each, and the sunhat is $30, so $120 in total."

Katrina smiles in satisfaction. "Thank you. I wish you an active business."

Although she knows she can still bargain further, she knows that it isn't easy for vendors to make money so that Katrina won't be excessive.

The hawker can make some money, and she can get some concessions. Isn't it perfect?

With only a few words, she can cut down the price by $50. Thinking about it gives her a sense of achievement.

As Katrina rejoices, Aaron takes out two hundred-dollar bills from his wallet and hands them to the hawker. "Keep the change."

The peddler freezes for a second and hurriedly takes the money. "Thank you, sir!"

Seeing Aaron's generosity, Katrina is stunned and clenches her teeth in anger.

This spendthrift!

She cut it down to $120, but he gave him $200!

Not only does he not pay the original price, but he also pays $30 more!

This guy is stupid, rich, and headstrong.

While Katrina glares at him, Aaron lifts his lips and puts his arm around her shoulder, whispering to her ear, "How quickly did you learn to save money for me?"

Aaron thought Katrina was very cute when he saw her bargaining with the peddler.

Since she was imprisoned, she's seldom been so spontaneous. She always deliberately hides her thoughts and deals carefully with him.

Upon seeing her bargaining, it made him feel that this is the real Katrina. This is the way Katrina lives her life. He likes that she put down all pretenses in front of him, not acting like not a canary in captivity.

Hearing Aaron's words, Katrina's face flushes slightly, and she stutters out, "You're thinking too much, who's saving money for you?"

It's just her life experience of more than twenty years.

She's not trying to save money for him on purpose!

That makes it seem like he's special to her.
