Chapter 363: Traveling
Zhai Jing stood up and looked at Le Wan’s head. He suggested,
“I think the sun is still a little hot outside. Why don’t you take a hat to cover yourself from the sun?”
Le Wan peeked out of the window and realized that it was indeed noon. The sun wasn’t too low, so she ran upstairs again and took a hat that was similar in color to her dress. She put it on in front of Zhai Jing. “Does this hat look good? Does it match my clothes?” Zhai Jing praised her directly.
“It’s beautiful. It matches your clothes very well.”
Although he didn’t know much about matching clothes, in Zhai Jing’s eyes, Le Wan would look good no matter what she wore, so he praised her sincerely.
It could only be said that beauty was indeed in the eye of the beholder.
Le Wan didn’t know if Zhai Jing was just giving her a perfunctory answer or if he really thought she looked good. She ran to the mirror by the French window and looked at herself for a while. She felt that she looked good before happily holding Zhai Jing’s arm.
On the way, the two of them chatted about Little Brother Le.
“I think he must be hiding something from us,” Le Wan said firmly.
Especially after learning that her little brother didn’t even sleep in today and got up early in the morning to rush to pick up the plastic bottles, Le Wan was even more certain. Otherwise, with his personality, he wouldn’t be so proactive. “I was thinking that if he’s still like this tomorrow, we’ll have to wait for him.”
Although they wanted Little Brother Le to train, they couldn’t let him go completely. After all, in the eyes of the Le family, this youngest child wasn’t very smart. They were afraid that he would be tricked into doing something bad or fall into someone else’s trap.
Zhai Jing naturally agreed.
“Then I’ll wake up early tomorrow to see if he’s still as eager to wake up as he was this morning.”
Le Wan was aware of her ability to sleep in. Hence, when she heard Zhai Jing’s words, she was relieved to leave the matter to him. She didn’t forget to remind him,
“If you find that something is wrong, you must come and wake me up.”
She had to secretly follow Little Brother Le and see if he was really picking up trash or doing something bad.
The two of them held hands and chatted and laughed without feeling tired. Soon, they reached the edge of Aier Lake.
However, before they could get close, Le Wan heard a commotion coming from the lakeside. She walked around the fork in the forest and looked in. She saw a dozen young people sitting, running, or jumping there. They were the people from the party last night.
Le Wan’s originally happy face immediately fell.
“How did we meet them here?”
What happened last night left a deep impression on Le Wan. She disliked both Emma and Jacques, and the teenagers in front of her were friends who surrounded them. As the saying went, “One’s blood would be stained by the company of vermin, and one’s skin would be stained by ink”. Le Wan had automatically assumed that those who could get along well with Emma and Jacques weren’t of good character.
Initially, she had thought that when the two of them reached the lake, they could rent a small boat and go boating on the lake. Not to mention reciting poems, they could at least have a pretentious exchange of heartfelt feelings. In the end, she didn’t expect that her good mood would be ruined by this group of people in front of her.
Le Wan was a little discouraged.
“Forget it. Let’s go somewhere else to play.”
Zhai Jing glanced at the dozen or so people who were having fun opposite him and agreed. He looked around and pointed to a small church not far away.
“Then let’s go over there and take a look. I heard that there are many pigeons there. Let’s go feed the pigeons and take a break.”
Le Wan felt much better when she heard that there were pigeons to feed. The two of them turned around and went to the church.
Behind a big tree not far behind them. Dave, who had been missing all
morning, suddenly emerged. He looked at Le Wan and Zhai Jing’s backs with a dark expression.
It was because of them that Serena became like that last night.
That’s right, in their three-man team, although both Serena and Dave followed Emma’s lead on the surface, Dave was deeply in love with Serena in private. Therefore, David was very angry when Serena got into trouble last night. He not only hated Zhai Jing and Le Wan, but also Emma..
