136 Following Her
“Where are you going? I’ll drive.”
Zhai Jing saw that Le Wan was not in a good mood and wanted to take the car keys from her hand. However, Le Wan moved her hand back and conveniently picked up her bag. She put it on her back, and his hand fell into the air. He was stunned for a few seconds.
“It shouldn’t be a big deal. I can go over by myself. You should go back to the hospital first, in case Auntie gets too anxious and can’t eat dinner.”
Just now, Little Brother Le had called and said that it was extremely urgent, and he asked Le Wan to get to him as soon as possible.
She was still in the middle of a mock exam, so logically speaking, Little Brother Le wouldn’t come looking for her for no reason.
Could he have caused trouble again?
Le Wan shook her head, pushed open the door of the coffee shop, and walked out before Zhai Jing.
“I won’t send you home today. You can take a taxi or a car home by yourself. Bye.”
Zhai Jing grabbed the strap of his school bag and frowned as he watched Le Wan drive away. He was puzzled.
So, Le Wan was indeed angry, but why was she angry?
Was it because he kissed her yesterday? However, if it was because of that, then wouldn’t Le Wan have shown it when they met today? But she had been acting normal all this while. If he did not remember wrongly, Le Wan’s mood started to change when she asked him if he had anything to say to her.
So, was she not satisfied with his answer?
Zhai Jing went over the matter again. Then, with his super high IQ, he began to do some reasoning on the process.
When Le Wan asked ‘what do you want to say to her?’ it should be understood as ‘what does she want to hear from you?’ Moreover, Le Wan even added a ‘today’ in the question, so today corresponded to ‘yesterday’ and ‘tomorrow’.
He answered
“Tomorrow.” From the result, it seemed to be the wrong answer. Then the problem was “yesterday.”
Le Wan drove out with the car and looked at Zhai Jing through the rearview mirror. He was standing still as if he had been punished. He snorted in his heart.
Yesterday, she was the one who took the initiative first. In the end, he kissed and hugged her, but he still didn’t say anything until now. What were the two of them now?
She was quite good at kissing him yesterday and even made inferences about it with this case, but now her brain was not working at all. She should let him worry about it first.
Le Wan turned on her phone and called Little Brother Le.
“Where are you now? You didn’t make it clear on the phone just now. What happened?”
Unexpectedly, Little Brother Le’s tone changed.
“Sister, you don’t have to come over. I’ve resolved it. It’s all a misunderstanding. Nothing happened.”
“Where are you?” Le Wan felt that something was not right.
“Ah, I’m playing games with some people at the video club.”
“Why is it so noisy in the video game club?”
If Le Wan did not mishear, she could still faintly hear the sound of traffic and honking. It just so happened that the traffic light had turned green, and the road ahead was blocked. Le Wan slowed down the car and stopped.
“Oh, it’s too stuffy in there. I was on the balcony listening to your phone call.”
Without waiting for Le Wan to continue asking, Little Brother Le changed the topic,
“I almost forgot that you’re in the middle of practicing for an exam. That’s why I called you first when I encountered something. You’ve been sitting for the whole day, so go back and rest early.”
Le Wan was skeptical about his words. She felt that this kid had been acting strange for the past two days, but she had no evidence. So, she warned him,
“Today, dad, mom, and big brother will be home early. If you don’t want to be interrogated by the three of them, you’d better go home early!”
“I know, I know. I’ll be back soon.” Little Brother Le Hung up the phone and sat up from the chair behind the Green Belt.
From his side, he could see the coffee shop across the street. He had been hiding here just now and secretly observing the movements of Le Wan and Zhai Jing.
When he saw that Le Wan was done with her tutoring and was about to pack up and leave, he quickly made a call.
The two of them were studying together. It was a serious matter, so he didn’t dare to disturb them. However, they had already finished their revision and should have gone back to their homes to find their mothers. What were the two of them still doing together?
So, he used the excuse of ‘help’ to get Le Wan to leave. Seeing the two of them separate as he wished, Little Brother Le felt that he was very smart.
However, he had squatted here for too long, and his legs were numb. His friends, Zhao Xing and Zeng Jia were a little speechless when they saw him bare his teeth and stretch his legs.
Zhao Xing picked up a blade of grass from his shoulder and said,
“Brother Le, do you have to do this? I think that Zhai Jing is even more handsome than the one from last night. Instead of looking for an unreliable small star, you might as well look for this one. When I saw him and your sister standing together, the two of them looked so beautiful. They were a perfect match! Why do you have to be the bad guy who breaks up a pair of lovebirds?”
