This question made Will's blue eyes suddenly freeze.
It was this anomaly that made Lu Dingning realize that she guessed right.
In fact, after returning to the Imperial City this time, Lu Yining was brought back to Smith Manor by William's own initiative, and when Will offered help to Lu Yining unconditionally, Lu Dingning realized that Will might have already discovered something.
Since being brought into Smith Manor by his mother, Lu Dingning has very few friends, and Will can be regarded as one of them.
Unlike the other two stepbrothers, Will never showed any hostility in front of Lu Dingning. Even when the other two wanted to bully her, Will always stood up to defend Lu Dingning and protect her.
In addition, when chatting with Will before, Lu Dingning once mentioned to Will that she has a twin sister...
And during that time, Lu Yining appeared as a boy, how could Will not think of other things?
But this guy, without even calling to ask her once, unconditionally arranged everything for Lu Yining, which also proved that Will knew that she was a girl a long time ago.
"Could it be that you knew it from the first day we met?" Seeing that Will was still in a daze, Lu Dingning added.
It's just that when he said this again, Lu Dingning's eyes had moved away from Will's body, and landed on a blooming rose in front of him. Her vision was a bit ethereal, as if she saw the first meeting between her and Will through this rose plant.
I still remember that it was the first day when Lu Dingning had just arrived, put on a small suit, cut off his long hair, and was brought into the Smith Manor. At that time, Old Smith and Shu Zhilan were busy chatting, and Lu Dingning quietly ran into the nearby rose house .
That's right, the greenhouse where she and Will are sitting on the ground now is also the place where the two of them met for the first time.
Lu Dingning remembered that when she first met Will, Will was already a fifteen-year-old boy.
He was wearing a very gentlemanly suit like Old Smith, but he had wiped off his leather shoes in the greenhouse and sat on the floor with a gloomy expression like the black cloud in the sky.
Seeing that the big brother was unhappy, Lu Dingning took the initiative to pick a rose and gave it to him.
Will didn't smile at her because of the flower, but scolded her loudly because the rose was picked off at will.
Then, the young Lu Dingning cried very spinelessly, not only because Will called him terrible, but also because her little hand was hurt by a rose thorn.
It may be that Lu Dingning's wailing frightened Will, and Will, who wanted to reprimand her severely, could only hug her and coax her in the end. In the end, Lu Dingning, who stopped crying, followed Will and sat on the ground in the rose room...
"No." Just as Lu Dingning was recalling the first encounter, Will suddenly made a sound, which made her wandering thoughts return.
"No? When was that?" Lu Dingning asked again.
"Earlier than the first time we met."
Will's words made Lu Dingning narrow his beautiful phoenix eyes: "Huh?"
"We met when you were in the yard of old Kate's house with your long hair."
"Old Kate?" Lu Dingning suddenly remembered that it was the time when her mother had just arrived in country F, and before she married into the Smith family, she had to work hard for food expenses for the two of them. Shu Zhilan always entrusted her to an old lady to take care of her. .
It seems that the old lady was called Old Kate because she was married to Mr. Kate.
But the problem is, the place they were in at the time was a slum. And how could the young master Will appear in that kind of slum?
But under Lu Dingning's incredible expression, Will continued: "At that time, you even gave me a candy."
"I'll give you candy?" Lu Dingning himself seemed to have completely forgotten about this matter.
"Well, I just saw my mother off, and I was sitting on the side of the road. You happened to be playing nearby, so you ran over..." When he said this, Will's blue eyes suddenly softened a lot.
It can be said that it was his darkest period of time.
At that time, Lu Dingning, a girl with long hair and two sweet dimples in her smile, was like a pure and beautiful little angel.
When she saw him crying on the side of the road, she squatted there and talked to her. At that time, she could only speak a few simple sentences. Like what is my name, where do I come from and things like that.
But she, who only knows a few bad F words, gave him the only candy in her pocket, and wiped his tears for him.
It was also this series of actions of hers that injected the only color into Will during the darkest period of time.
When Will collected his mood and wanted to see that pretty little angel again, and bought a bag of candy as his thank you gift, and planned to come to this slum again, he found that the girl was taken away.
For a long time after that, Will couldn't see the little girl with an oriental face again. Until she broke into this flower room...
The first time they met again, Will actually failed to recognize this angel. In addition to the fact that Westerners themselves do not have the ability to recognize Easterners, there is also a factor that has changed her appearance too much.
The previously well-behaved long hair was cut into a boy's hairstyle, and he put on a small suit again. This made Will really treat her as a little boy when she broke into the greenhouse.
Will didn't recognize her until his roar scared her to tears, and he took great pains to coax her again, and made her little face bloom with those two sweet little dimples. .
Also because he recognized her, Will was very curious about why she turned from a little girl into a little boy.
Of course, Will didn't think about the possibility that the little angel was originally a boy. But after getting along with each other, he found that no matter how busy Shu Zhilan was, he would insist on bathing the little angel in person, and even Shu Zhilan didn't allow other people to be present when the little angel was changing clothes! And these also dispelled all the remaining doubts in Will's mind.
And on Lu Dingning's side, he suddenly remembered a vague picture.
It was not long after she arrived in country F, her mother was very busy with their lives and had to entrust her to old Kate to take care of her, and the peers around her didn't like her very much and didn't play with her, She is very lonely.
So when she was playing alone in the old Kate's yard, she saw a boy crying on the side of the road, thinking that he was crying because he was unaccompanied just like her, so she ran over and wanted to make friends with him. In order to keep the big boy from crying, Lu Dingning even gave him her favorite candy in his pocket...
