251 Collusion

Big Brother Le patted his shoulder sympathetically,

“Then we’ll have to thank you for the tea.”

“Playing cards isn’t your strong suit, so you’ll just have to serve the tea,” Second Brother encouraged.

Little Brother Le wanted to cry but had no tears. Playing cards wasn’t his strong suit, but was pouring tea his strong suit? Unfortunately, his opinion was directly taken away.

“I’m sorry, my family is relatively noisier. If you feel uncomfortable, you don’t have to participate in these things.” From Le Wan’s point of view, Zhai Jing’s overall personality was more on the quiet side. This should be different from the environment he grew up in.

She had heard from Mother Zhai that when she was young, she often locked little Zhai Jing up at home to watch television or do homework while she tried to earn money for the family. As a result, he developed a slightly antisocial character.

Mother Zhai felt very guilty about this for a while, but little Zhai Jing himself didn’t think much of it. In his words, those children of the same age as him were too stupid and he was also impatient to play with these people.

After hearing his words, Mother Zhai didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Due to this reason, even though Zhai Jing’s IQ was extraordinary, Mother Zhai had never thought of letting him skip a grade or let him be admitted to college early.

Mother Zhai had been worried that since little Zhai Jing didn’t make any good friends among his peers, it would be difficult for him to communicate with them if he were to skip a grade to a higher grade due to the age gap.

Hence, Mother Zhai had been making Zhai Jing go to school and take the exams as normal. Le Wan had also thought of this. She was afraid that Zhai Jing wouldn’t be used to such a noisy environment.

Zhai Jing shook his head.

“I think it’s good for everyone to get together and have fun.”

Unlike his family, his mother had been busy with work since he was young and had no time to play with him. Those years were the time when a child needed the most attention, but his mother wasn’t by his side…

Little Zhai Jing understood Mother Zhai’s difficulties. He knew that it wasn’t that she didn’t care about him. However, as a single mother, to support herself and her child, she had already exhausted most of her energy. Hence, it was very normal that she couldn’t take care of him for a while.

As a result, he didn’t cry or make a fuss. Instead, he took good care of himself at a young age, and could also take care of his mother.

But even so, it didn’t mean that Zhai Jing really liked this kind of life. When he was young, he looked out of the window many times. Every time he saw a family of three or four passing by, his eyes would be filled with envy.

Therefore, when Zhai Jing saw the Le family gathered together and making a lot of noise, he was especially envious. Now, he was about to join in the fun.

Le Wan observed his expression for a moment, and when she saw that he was really not forcing himself, she finally relaxed.

“Then let’s sit here.”

“Okay, Baby, you guys can be our opponents.” Grandpa Le also asked them to sit down quickly.

The first round started. The cards in Zhai Jing’s hands were neither good nor bad. He thought for a while and arranged his cards properly. It was obvious that he already had a plan in mind.

At this time, Little Brother Le, who was in charge of serving tea, had already walked around the table and poured tea for everyone, so he was the only one present who had seen the cards of the four families.

At last, he came to Le Wan’s side and broke off half an orange for her.

“Sister, try it. This orange is delicious.”

Le Wan took it and just as she was about to stuff it into her mouth, she felt someone knocking on her chair leg. She looked down and realized that it was Little Brother Le who was kicking her chair leg.

Le Wan was deep in thought. When she saw Zhai Jing taking out a ten of spades and was about to play it, she quickly stopped him.

“I think it’s better to play another card.”

Zhai Jing’s hand paused for a moment before he put the ten of spades back. Then, he played the pair of threes beside him. After three rounds, Zhai Jing put the last card in his hand on the table, which meant that he had won this round.

Le Wan cheered happily and secretly gave Little Brother Le a look, praising him for doing well and that he could continue to work hard.

However, the moment she finished that look, Papa Le suddenly said,

“Le Xuan, if you’re free, bring your bodyguards to the supermarket. I happen to have some things that I need you to buy.”

The moment he opened his mouth, he sent Little Brother Le away. Le Wan looked up and saw Papa Le’s eyes, which seemed to see through everything.

Alright, it seemed like Papa Le had seen through their little trick.
