Chapter 614: 614

Yuan Zhou closed the door of the cabinet and revealed a look of heartache . Of course, what he felt heartache was for the other parts of the duck that were nowhere to be found .

“Ding Ling Ling, Ding Ling Ling,” a familiar ringtone sounded .

“Huh? It is already this hour . ” Yuan Zhou took up the phone and checked the time . It clearly displayed 2 o’clock on the screen .

“Um . I can rest for one hour and watch some TV . ” Yuan Zhou held his phone and closed the door before heading to the second floor straightforwardly .

That’s right . Ever since he came back from Japan, he had been addicted to a TV drama series . It was actually updated at 12:00 a . m . every day, but it was too late for Yuan Zhou to watch . Therefore, he had to watch it the next day .

Therefore, Yuan Zhou always spared one hour in the afternoon to watch TV every day .

“Can that protagonist defeat those gangsters today?” Yuan Zhou thought carefully while turning on his computer .

What Yuan Zhou watched was a criminal investigation drama . The protagonist was a private detective with a very high IQ and had also been a policeman . But now, he lived on the rewards given by the police authorities which came from cracking the cases .

This drama was quite fast-paced . Basically, a case could be solved in three to five episodes . And the character type of the protagonist was also of that of a prince charming . In Yuan Zhou’s words, he was just a little less handsome than Yuan Zhou himself .

The protagonist wore a business suit every day . Unlike the detectives in other TV dramas, this one had a tidy hair and was dressed very clean . Therefore, Yuan Zhou was quite interested in him .

In today’s episode of the drama, the protagonist went to a store of luxury goods in order to follow a person . He followed him while buying things .

During the period, he even tried several watches on and then bought one .

“Hmm, this watch fits the protagonist very well . ” Yuan Zhou sighed with emotion first .

In the following plot not long after that, this watch was used so deftly by the protagonist that it even stopped a bullet for him .

“A man looks so handsome when he wears a watch . ” Yuan Zhou stroked his forehead and revealed a thoughtful manner .

“This protagonist is just a little less handsome than me . Since I’m so much more handsome than him, I must have a watch, too . ” Yuan Zhou looked at his own wrists .

Five minutes later, Yuan Zhou made a decision .

He took his coat and went out directly . Of course, he was going to buy a watch .

“Ta Ta Ta” . Yuan Zhou walked to the crossroads in one go . During the process, he was ill-treated by Broth flaunting its relationship, as it was chasing and playing with a Chinese stray dog happily . Except for that, everything went smoothly .

Once he got on the car, the driver asked him straightforwardly, “Where are you going?”

The question of the driver directly baffled Yuan Zhou . He just wanted to buy a watch, but he had no idea where he should go to buy one .

However, this was no time to be making mistakes . Yuan Zhou said very calmly, “Lihua Road, please . “

“All right,” answered the driver . Then, the car headed for the most bustling place of this city . “

The place where Yuan Zhou was going this time was not far from the street where he had bought the clothes last time . Since there were so many stores that sold clothes, there must be some places that sold watches .

At around 3:00 in the afternoon, the roads weren’t really crowded . In just half an hour, Yuan Zhou arrived at Lihua Road .

“Thank you . ” Yuan Zhou thanked the driver and then got off the car .

“Ta Ta Ta” . He didn’t walk for too long before he saw a large shopping mall .

“Just as expected . If there’s a shopping mall, I can definitely find stores that sell watches inside . How quick-witted I am!” Yuan Zhou praised himself for a while inwardly and then walked into the mall .

With the air-conditioner on, the mall was very warm . Yuan Zhou unzipped his coat first before he started to wander about in the mall .

The area close to the entrance was the clothes area . Of course, they were all women clothes . When he walked inside further, it was the women-shoes area .

“Sure enough . The mall never lacks people . ” Yuan Zhou walked forward with big strides towards the central part .

Just in a little while, he walked to a counter where a line of English letters were marked . Yuan Zhou indicated that he basically knew none of them .

Looking at the watches surrounded by the glass cabinet, however, Yuan Zhou stood still there .

“Nice to meet you . Which one do you like? You can try it on . ” A sweet-looking girl dressed in business attire went up to him directly and asked .

“Okay . Is there the kind with the leather watch strap?” Yuan Zhou looked around and then said .

“Sure . Look at this one . This watch strap is made of genuine leather from soft calf hide . It feels very soft and comfortable . ” The girl immediately took out a watch from the glass cabinet and introduced it to him very carefully .

“Any other color?” Yuan Zhou looked at the black watchband and asked directly .

After all, what the protagonist wore in the drama was a watch with a brown strap .

Of course, Yuan Zhou wanted to buy that one because it could stop bullets .

“Yes, but this one is a little more expensive . Nevertheless, it fits you very much . You have a fair complexion, so the brown one looks better . ” The girl immediately took out another watch from the cabinet on the other side .

And it was exactly the color that Yuan Zhou wanted . The key point was that this girl was very good at talking to customers .

“Um . Let me try it on . ” Yuan Zhou nodded his head . When he glanced at the price, he found it was still acceptable and thus prepared to try it on .

“Okay . Let me show you how to wear it . You just need to buckle it through the third hole . Look! The watch dial looks so magnificent and the strap is also of made from genuine leather . It looks great on you . ” The girl kept praising Yuan Zhou .

“Not bad . Can I pay by bank transfer?” Yuan Zhou asked directly . He didn’t intend to take it off .

“Yes, sure . Here’s the QR code . Scan it and pay by bank transfer . It’s a total of 12000 RMB . ” The girl showed him a QR code at once and put it in front of him .

“Done . I will be taking it away now . ” Yuan Zhou showed the transfer to the girl and then said .

“No problem, of course . After you wash and clean the watch strap, remember to use a little hand cream . Swipe the cream evenly on your hands and then rub it on the watch strap . Of course, you can also bring it here and we can do the maintenance work for you . ” The girl gave the details concerning the maintenance while she was wrapping up the watch .

“Thank you . ” Yuan Zhou listened to her carefully the whole time and nodded his head occasionally .

“Let me give you a holder for the watch . When you don’t wear it, you can put it on the holder . It’s not only good-looking, but also doesn’t occupy too much space . At the same time, you can also find it conveniently . ” The girl handed the package to him smilingly .

“Sorry to bother you . ” Yuan Zhou nodded his head . Then, he took the bag and left .

“The equipment of a prince charming is finally in the right place,” Yuan Zhou looked at the watch around his wrist and said to himself lightly .

When he took a cab back home, Yuan Zhou couldn’t help calculating the time .

“It took five minutes more to come back . It seems traffic lights do take a lot of time . ” Yuan Zhou checked his watch first before he walked into the restaurant .

After he watched TV and went out to buy the watch, it was almost time to prepare the ingredients for dinner .

“Now that I have a watch, I don’t need to look up for the time anymore,” Yuan Zhou raised his wrist and then said lightly .

Having changed into the Han Chinese Clothing for working, Yuan Zhou directly came downstairs into the kitchen and prepared to wash the ingredients .

When he reached out his hand, however, he suddenly became stupefied .

The watch occupied his wrist obviously . Yuan Zhou moved his hand subconsciously and then got stunned .

“I need to work for six hours every day . Plus the time used to prepare the ingredients and practice sculpting, I basically can’t rest for 12 hours . ” Yuan Zhou suddenly started to calculate his own available time, silently .

Then, he took off the watch quickly .

“Watching TV really affects people’s judgement . It’s true that TV dramas damage people’s wits . ” Yuan Zhou looked at the watch and then the ingredients speechlessly .

That’s right . Yuan Zhou found that he didn’t have any time to wear the watch . The daily working time sometimes exceeded 12 hours and how could a chef wear things around the wrist during his working time?

So, more than 10000 RMB was paid in vain?

Yuan Zhou suddenly felt he got a stomachache .
