Sophia nodded and said in a gentle voice, "Okay."

Before they left the counter, Aaron glanced at the diamond counter again. He noticed that Sophia was just wearing simple silver jewelry on her neck and wrist. He wanted her to wear more expensive jewelries as he knew that she would look more sophisticated with it. He knew that he had never bought anything for his sister. That was the reason why he had asked her if there was something she liked. Today's the time that he treated her sister like a princess.

Then they made their way to the clothes section. After Sophia picked out several sets of clothes and a few pairs of shoes for Aaron, they paid for everything and went out of the mall with lots of shopping bags on their hands.

Aaron put all the clothes and shoes they bought into the trunk of the Cadillac SUV which is given by Colin. "Sophia, what should we have for dinner? What kind of food do you want to eat?" Aaron said while he was busy placing the clothes inside the trunk.

Sophia thought about it for a while and then suggested in an excited voice, "Let's go to the street food stalls. It has been a while since we ate at such places. It would be wonderful to eat there again."

When she was still going out with Colin, they would never go to the street food stall. The restaurants they went to have dinner were always very fancy. Of course, that was Colin. He would always think that street food was dirty. Because of that, Sophia hasn't eaten street food for a long time already.

"Okay then. I know a small place on the side of Kaixuan Street and they make the best barbecue and shashliks. Let's go!" Aaron responded with an equally excited voice. Then they quickly got into the car and left the mall.

During early winter, few people would go to food stalls because of the cold weather. Under a big red tent, there were a few tables, and only two tables were occupied with customers.

A couple was sitting at one table and several men were huddled at another one. Aaron suddenly was on his alert self as it seemed that the men were gangsters from the neighborhood. You could tell that they could be dangerous men because of their fat gold chains, the tattoos on their forehead and on their neck... They were also using a lot of bad words and curses in their conversation.

Aaron parked the Cadillac on the side of the street. Because of how fancy the car was, they looked out of place in the crowded and messy streets. They caught so much attention right after Sophia got off the car.

Sophia and Aaron found a relatively quiet place in a corner far away from the crowd. Sophia sat with her back against the onlookers, while Aaron sat down across from Sophia.

The street stall was owned by a woman. She was lovingly carrying her sleeping child on her arms. Sophia thought that the woman already looked so exhausted.

In order to make a living, the woman had to go to work with her child. She has no other choice. Sophia felt so sad when she saw the child. Life was not easy at all, especially for these people.

Somehow, everything reminded her of Colin. She didn't understand why. She asked Aaron to place the order then she took out her phone and dialed Colin's number. "Have you eaten yet?" Sophia asked, almost whispering.

Colin looked at the chef who was about to bring dinner to his table and answered, "I am about to."

"Do you want any shashliks?" Sophia was hoping he would join them.

But there was just uncomfortable silence on the other end of the line. Sophia heaved a sigh and gave up. "Okay. Eat your dinner first. Don't mind me."

"Is it your treat? I can have some, then." Colin finally said. Colin knew that she was really hoping he would say yes just by her hesitant voice.

Sophia smiled, tried to hide her excitement and said, "Okay then. I'll bring some for you. Wait for me."

She would bring some street food for him, rather than ask him to come here. She knew very well that he would not be able to stand the mess and noise in here.

"Okay. I'll wait, for you. Please take care."

Sophia raised her head, looked at the stars in the sky and said deliberately to irritate him, "I'm not bringing them to you, Aaron will.copy right hot novel pub
