Chapter 59 - 59 Introduction
59 Introduction
“Baby, take a look at the youngest son of the Xu family. He’s only three years older than you, and he’s very smart and honest. One look and you can tell that he’s not someone who will mess around.”
After the incident with Fu Sui, Grandpa Le hated cunning people.
Le Wan was speechless.
How did you describe the same person as being smart and honest?
She took a look at the photo that Grandpa Le had sent over. In it was a serious-looking boy wearing black-rimmed glasses with his lips pursed. He looked like a nerd.
“Hiss!” She hissed.
So grandpa’s description was right. This person looked like he was good at studying and had a very honest personality.
“But Grandpa, I like good-looking boys,” Le Wan replied.
Grandpa Le had been waiting for her response and replied very quickly,
“Baby, you can’t judge a person by his looks. Like the Fu family’s one, he’s only good to look at but useless.”
Grandpa Le was right, but as a person who was obsessed with looks, she still liked handsome men. For example, the man in front of her.
Le Wan glanced at Zhai Jing, who was engrossed in doing his homework. As there was finally hope for mother Zhai’s condition to improve, the gloominess that had shrouded his eyes for the past few days had faded a lot. Under the combination of the setting sun and the light in the coffee room, his delicate and handsome facial features seemed to be covered with a layer of soft light, showing a sense of sacredness and inviolability.
However, it was precisely this damn sense of abstinence that was even more tantalizing, making people want to pick this mountain-top flower and put it in their mouths to taste it.
Le Wan thought of what her grandfather had just said about “being useful,” and her thoughts went astray for a moment.
Although Zhai Jing looked thin, from the way his wrists were exposed when he rolled up his sleeves and the feeling after hugging him twice, he was thin. He was the kind that looked thin when he was dressed and chubby when he was undressed. Moreover, his chubby flesh was quite elastic to the touch.
So he should be quite “useful,” right?
Le Wan could not help but shift her gaze downwards, from his face to his slender neck, from his Adam’s apple to the exposed fair skin in his school uniform collar. Le Wan felt her mouth go dry, and she could not help but lick her lower lip. She wanted to continue looking down, but a Practice Book blocked her vision.
“First, solve the questions above.” Zhai Jing’s low voice came from behind the exercise book.
“I know, top student.”
Having her interest interrupted, Le Wan took the book with a little pity. She wanted to say something, but a big hand reached over and pressed her head down.
“These are the knowledge points that you didn’t manage to solve in the mock exam. You have to master them as soon as possible.”
Since it was a serious matter, Le Wan immediately reverted to her identity as a Senior High School student and cleared her mind of all the dirty thoughts.
“I know, I know!” She pouted, pushed his hand away, and began to read the questions seriously.
Just as she was engrossed in her homework, she did not notice that Zhai Jing, who was sitting opposite her, had picked up the ice water on the table and gulped it down.
After another day of make-up lessons, Le Wan drove Zhai Jing to the nearest subway station. Before getting off, he glanced at Le Wan’s phone.
“Are you busy today? You’ve been receiving messages.”
Without even looking, Le Wan knew that most of the news was coming from her worried grandfather.
“It’s nothing. The elders in the family are just worrying about something that doesn’t even exist.”
“Is there anything more important than your college entrance examination?” He asked, pretending to be casual.
“Didn’t I break off my engagement with the Fu family? My grandfather is afraid that I’ll be sad, so he’s trying to find me another one.”
After Le Wan finished speaking, she looked at the expressionless Zhai Jing and suddenly felt a little guilty.
“Of course, I rejected him sternly. Just like you said, the most important thing now is the college entrance examination. How can I be distracted by other things? That’s why I said Grandpa is worrying for nothing and I don’t like to bother him.”
Zhai Jing unbuckled his seat belt and asked a sudden question.
“So, you’ll be fine after the college entrance examination, right?”
At that moment, a large truck passed by, and Le Wan did not hear him clearly.
“What did you just say?”
“It’s fine if you didn’t hear me.”
Zhai Jing glanced at the rearview mirror, opened the door, and got out of the car.
“Instead of worrying about these trivial things, you should focus on your studies. There’s not much time left. There are two more mock exams after this. It’ll be very difficult for you to improve as much as you did in the previous two exams. If you let your guard down in the middle, you will be further and further away from your goal.”
