For a person of Matthew's status, he would probably only bring a single card out. Why would he still bring his wallet and cash?
Matthew smiled and said, "Not everywhere accepts cards. It's convenient for both me and others by bringing cash."
Selina couldn't help but say, "Why are you always so kind, Matthew?"
He was considerate towards other people in every aspect. How could he be so indescribably kind?
Matthew looked at her with surprise and asked, "What, I thought you said I was a hypocrite?"
Selina did not know what to say.
She was a little embarrassed. "Didn't you say that a person with your status doesn't need to put on a facade? That's why I don't think you're hypocritical anymore."
Matthew smiled.
Something emerged faintly in his mind.
Guns, killing, and bloodshed...
After experiencing life and death, he felt that life was the most important thing in the world. He was willing to respect every life.
The two of them continued walking. The city they were in was not as lively as Agaphen City. At night, many of the shops were closed, leaving only the scattered street lights.
As Selina walked, she suddenly sprained her foot.
She let out a cry of surprise.
Matthew stopped immediately and asked, "What's wrong?"
Selina pointed at her own foot and answered, "I seem to have sprained it."
Matthew immediately bent down to take a look.
Since Selina was wearing jeans today, Matthew rolled up her trousers directly.
A part of her tender white calves was exposed.
There was redness and swelling on her ankle.
It was not too big of a deal.
"Can you continue walking? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" Matthew asked Selina.
Selina glanced at her ankle.
It was nothing serious. She probably would be fine the next day.
Selina shook her head. "Never mind. I don't need to go to the hospital. It's just a small matter. I'll become a sick freak sooner or later if I keep going to the hospital."
Matthew couldn't help but laugh.
He knew that there was nothing serious either. Indeed, there was no need for them to go to the hospital.
"Let's go back now," Matthew suggested.
Although it wasn't so serious, it still wasn't suitable for her to walk anymore.
Selina nodded.
On the way back, Selina's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Although it was not too serious, it was still a little painful when she walked.
"Is it painful?" Matthew asked as he realized Selina's abnormal behavior.
Without hesitation, Matthew squatted down and said, "Come here."
Selina was at a loss for words.
She was startled and asked, "You want to carry me?"
"Yeah," Matthew replied. "Get on, I'll carry you over."
The open space there was so small, so it was impossible to ground the helicopter. His only choice was to carry Selina there.
Selina hesitated for a long time and finally climbed up to Matthew's shoulders.
His shoulders were broad.
Selina's slender arms were wrapped around Matthew's neck.
Her body and Matthew's back were pressed together completely. The heat spread to her whole body along her chest.
She was a little shy and her face was as red as a shrimp.
Fortunately, Matthew couldn't see it, so Selina didn't have to deliberately control her blushing.
This was the first time someone had carried her on their back.
Even Dylan had never done so before.
Before that, when she saw a man carrying a woman on his back, she didn't feel anything. After she experienced it, she realized that it was really embarrassing.
It was because this kind of position was too intimate.
Her body was pressed together with his completely.
They didn't say a word all the way to the helicopter.
When Matthew put Selina down, Selina finally came back to her senses.
It turned out to have passed in a flash.
