Chapter 316: Ambition
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Upon hearing Emma’s words, Le Wan finally realized that this person had actually treated Zhai Jing as her second brother.
“I think you might have made a mistake. That boy from before was not my second brother. He is my boyfriend.”
“Impossible!” Emma blurted out.
The two families had bought a small villa in this resort and were neighbors. Although Emma had never met the Le family, she knew from her neighbors and helpers that there was a family of black-haired Easterners living in
Building 2. It was a couple with three sons and a daughter, a family of six.
Hence, she had mistakenly thought that Zhai Jing was the second son of the Le family.
Under Le Wan’s confused gaze, Emma pouted and said,
“I’ve heard that you Easterners are famous for being conservative. You say that middle school students are not allowed to date. So, why did your parents allow you to have a boyfriend and even take him out for a vacation?”
On the topic of “‘puppy love”, Le Wan could only say,
“Every family has a different way of education. My parents are very supportive of my decision.”
At this moment, Zhai Jing happened to be coming downstairs. He naturally sat beside Le Wan and his eyes fell on Le Wan’s hair which was wet when she washed her face.
“Why didn’t you dry your hair before coming down?”
Le Wan brushed her hair with her hands.
“It’s just a little wet. It’s okay.”
“Don’t comb it anymore. It’ll be harder to dry when your wet hair sticks to your scalp.” Zhai Jing grabbed her hand and stopped her.
Then, he took out two pieces of paper towels and gently stuck them on her wet hair, sucking the water dry.
Emma looked at this scene and suddenly felt uneasy.
If she still had some doubts before, she had none anymore.
Although she couldn’t understand the conversation between Zhai Jing and Le
Wan, judging from the intimate actions that Zhai Jing had shown towards Le Wan and the focused and affectionate look on Le Wan’s face, it was definitely not the kind of action and gaze that an elder brother would have when he was looking at his younger sister.
Emma could clearly feel that he was showing her their intimate relationship.
This was undoubtedly a slap to her face for what she had said and done just now. Emma felt that she should be angry. But damn it, looking at Zhai Jing’s appearance, such an affectionate and handsome man made her heart move even more. At the very least, Jacques or other men had never looked at her with such an affectionate gaze.
They were stunned by her looks and were proud of talking to her. They even made all kinds of bets for her. However, Emma had never seen Zhai Jing’s expression in their eyes before. His eyes were filled with gentleness, concern, and love as if you were his whole world.
Out of some secret thoughts, Emma was even more certain that she must make Zhai Jing attend the party tonight. Hence, she invited him again.
Zhai Jing threw the wet tissue into the trash can. His eyes didn’t stay on Emma for even a second. In response to her invitation, he only said calmly, “You should ask my girlfriend. If she’s willing to go, then we’ll go.”
Little Brother Le raised his hand and replied,
“Yes, if my sister doesn’t go, then I won’t go either.”
Emma’s smile froze for a moment when she heard Little Brother Le’s words.
Who cares if you go or not?
In her eyes, a little brother like him who hadn’t yet finished his puberty, even if he was good-looking, was still too young. She had no interest in him at all.
However, since both of them said so, Emma had no choice but to suppress the little awkwardness in her heart and invite Le Wan again.
This time, Le Wan didn’t refuse and readily agreed. She wanted to see what this person was up to by inviting them to the party so enthusiastically.
Having achieved her goal, Emma took one last look at Zhai Jing before she bit her lip and left with a trace of unwillingness.
Mama Le poked Papa Le, who hadn’t said much throughout the whole process, and whispered, “Why do I feel like there’s something wrong with this Emma?” She kept looking at Le Wan.
Papa Le also replied softly,
“I’m afraid that she fell in love with Zhai Jing at first sight. She thought that he was our son, so she deliberately came to our door.”
When he said this, he couldn’t help but feel a little sour.
“Zhai Jing, everything else is good, but your face is attractive..”
