Chapter 1522: Chapter 1522: Shocking News
Her eyes turned red, and she lowered her little head, sadly running out.
"Yiyi..." Ling Kong wanted to call out to her, but the little girl was already angrily running away without looking back.
He widened his eyes, looking helpless. Truly, this little girl had a huge temper and couldn’t be scolded at all.
"I’m sorry, this little girl is quite childish and has a big temper, but she doesn’t mean to cause any unpleasantness." Ling Kong spoke softly to the White couple.
The White couple didn’t mind much and smiled, "With her family not around, it’s inevitable for the child to feel a bit wronged, but her honesty is also very charming. Nowadays, children in high society act too much like adults, losing their childlike nature."
"Even though childlike innocence is good." Charlotte couldn’t help but interject, "But being too willful isn’t a good thing either. Since the Ji Family is her guardian now, naturally, they want what’s best for her. Why not send her to a better boarding school to change her ways? It would be better for her parents too. As her guardians, even if she doesn’t want to go, she has no choice."
"Why does Miss Charlotte always want her to leave me and go study in the East? Your concern for Yiyi’s education seems a bit excessive."
Ling Kong listened, his eyes suddenly turning cold and devoid of warmth. Despite still wearing an elegant smile, looking into his eyes gave Charlotte an involuntary chill.
She suddenly understood that despite their close age, this young man was terrifyingly cold, far from being simple as he appeared.
When not revealing it, he was a refined and charming young man. But once his bottom line was crossed, he showed a completely intimidating and frightening aura.
"It’s not that she doesn’t want to go, it’s that I won’t allow her to go!"
"Why?" Despite knowing he was angry and feeling an inexplicable fear, Charlotte still couldn’t help but ask.
Why was Ling Kong so protective of that little girl, even saying it was him who wouldn’t allow her to study in the East?
Ling Kong looked at her indifferently, arrogantly saying, "Because I won’t let my little fiancée leave my sight. Whether she’s smart or not, whether she attends a prestigious school or not, I don’t care. I only care about her happiness and her healthy growth. As for whether she becomes a lady or an outstanding figure, I care even less. What I like is precisely such a genuine and lovely little girl."
Charlotte was so shocked she almost fell, staring with wide eyes, losing her calm questioning, "Little fiancée? You, you both... She’s so young, how could you?"
No wonder she felt so uncomfortable and odd seeing Ji Lingkong sitting with Jun Yiyi initially. She admitted she had a liking for Ji Lingkong.
After all, such an outstanding young man, accomplished at a young age, and strikingly handsome, couldn’t be compared to those other high-society youths who didn’t measure up to even a fraction of him. She had always been very picky, yet even she admired him for being more capable than herself.
So, seeing him treat that little girl so well made her inevitably jealous. But before, she merely thought he was particularly doting on her like a brother would on a sister, not paying much mind to the little girl, considering her too young to possibly have a relationship with Ji Lingkong.
Now, hearing this made her even angrier. How could that wild, rude little girl be worthy of him, not even worthy of a finger of his?
"We Easterners have a custom of child engagement. Why, do you have a problem with that?" Ling Kong’s tone turned cold.
