Chapter 1518: Chapter 1518: Pampering
Her beaming smile was especially radiant and dazzling, her beautiful eyes turned towards Ling Kong, her gaze flowing with an unusual admiration.
"But no matter how impressive I am, I still can’t match Ling Kong. I just discussed some business and political issues with him and realized how shallow my knowledge is. My perspective lacks his depth and breadth. I must work harder in the future, otherwise, well, I wouldn’t even dare to talk to him."
Her playful words made everyone burst into laughter.
Even Ling Kong, who was always considered very proud, laughed, "For your age, to know so much and be able to analyze the financial market so precisely, you’ve already surpassed many adults; you just lack practical experience."
"Then I must seek your advice more in the future." Charlotte laughed even more happily.
Jun Yiyi held her knife and fork, forked a piece of tender dessert, and put it in her small mouth, yet it felt not sweet at all.
She lifted her chubby face and looked at Charlotte’s dazzling, bright, and radiant pretty face, somewhat stunned. This sister was like a blazing light source.
In the past, she was always the center of attention, always the most dazzling and adored.
But now she realized that this position no longer belonged to her. Sister Charlotte was more radiant and dazzling than herself. Everyone praised her, thought she was very smart and nice, and well-matched with Brother Ling Kong. In comparison, she suddenly became an inconspicuous ’ugly duckling’, everyone’s attention on her rather than on herself.
Moreover, when she spoke to Brother Ling Kong, she laughed so brightly; she couldn’t even find an opportunity to intervene in their conversations.
Jun Yiyi felt even gloomier. She had always been confident and lively, never feeling anything was wrong with herself, but seeing this amazing sister, she felt inferior for the first time.
She did not like this feeling.
"What are you thinking about? Isn’t this your favorite matcha dessert? You’ve only picked at one piece, which is not like your usual foodie behavior. In the past, you would rub your belly and say you were stuffed." Ling Kong turned around and was astonished to see that the girl, who usually loved to eat, had eaten so little today and was surprisingly quiet.
"Is it wrong for me to be on a diet?" Jun Yiyi pouted discontentedly and glared at him.
Why talk about her being a foodie in front of others, making it seem like she was just a little girl who only knew how to eat?
Ling Kong chuckled, pinching her plump, tender little face.
"What diet? It’s this chubby cuteness that’s most adorable; no dieting."
He picked up his own fork, speared a piece, and held it to Jun Yiyi’s mouth.
"Open your mouth."
Being fed by his hand, Jun Yiyi felt somewhat happier. After all, with a child’s temperament, that little bit of gloominess was quickly cast aside, and she happily opened her mouth. Uh-huh, Brother Ling Kong’s feeding was particularly delicious.
"What else do you want to eat?" Ling Kong asked contentedly.
Jun Yiyi’s cheeks were still puffed, already loosened up, and she pointed at the things on the table while chewing.
"I want this, and that... uh-huh... and that one too..."
Under her direction, Ling Kong laughed and picked all that she liked for her, feeding her personally.
Charlotte, who had been chatting with Ling Kong, wore a look of utter disbelief. Seeing him use his used knife and fork to directly feed Jun Yiyi, her eyes became even more complex. In high society, etiquette and hygiene are most valued, and utensils are never shared, given the saliva factor; no one, unless very close, would do such a thing.
