Chapter 1523: Chapter 1523: They Don’t Love You
He greatly liked and respected the White couple and was polite enough to their daughter, Charlotte. However, the fact that this girl repeatedly encouraged Yiyi to leave him and go study in the East really made him angry, but out of respect for Uncle White, he refrained from acting out just now.
But that doesn’t mean he likes being bossed around and having people meddle in his business, so his words became sharp.
"What’s so great about that little girl? She’s obviously just a clueless little brat. How could you like someone like that?" Charlotte was both upset and puzzled.
Ling Kong’s face grew darker, and his glass-like eyes held a touch of cold arrogance: "What’s good about her doesn’t need your understanding; it’s enough that I understand. Also, the kind of people I like is none of your concern."
"You..." Charlotte, after all, was a proud daughter of heaven, pampered since childhood, and couldn’t bear such ridicule. She was quite ashamed and angry, snorted, put down her knife and fork, and stood up haughtily, "Uncle Ji, Aunt Mu, I’ve finished my meal."
Even if she was leaving, she wanted to walk away gracefully, unlike that rough little girl who threw down her knife and fork and left.
There was a gap between them.
...
Jun Yiyi was sitting in the wisteria pergola in the garden, feeling aggrieved and depressed.
She was unhappy, very unhappy, but she felt that her unhappiness was not just because Charlotte bullied her; there were other things she couldn’t quite understand.
So, she became even more depressed.
"Hmph, so you’re here, running out willfully. Do you think anyone will care and come to coax you? You’re really a self-centered little girl, thinking the world revolves around you." A mocking voice came from above.
Jun Yiyi raised her head and saw Charlotte standing next to her with a very dissatisfied expression and a complex look in her eyes, filled with anger and bewilderment, disdain, and indifference.
"Look, even Ling Kong is ignoring you. Don’t you realize how annoying your behavior is? If it weren’t for your parents being good friends with the Ji Family, having to take good care of you, would they tolerate and be so good to you? They probably already think you’re an annoying pest in their hearts, so willful, so troublesome."
Jun Yiyi felt a sting in her chest, sour and bitter, and couldn’t help biting her lips.
Being pierced in the most sensitive place, naturally, her heart was pained.
Is that really what Uncle Ji and Aunt Mu think? Is Brother Ling Kong also just tolerating her all along? Is she really so annoying, and they’re only nice to her because of her parents’ friendship?
"I bet your parents also find you annoying, that’s why they left you here to live with someone else."
"You’re talking nonsense, my mom and dad aren’t like that; they love me the most." Jun Yiyi got angry, jumped up, her face flushed, and looked at her angrily.
"Otherwise, what reason would they have to leave you at someone else’s house for so long and not take you back? They probably feel very disdainful of you."
Jun Yiyi’s face turned pale, as if pierced by a sharp knife, her little heart tightening. Before, she never felt anything was wrong with being left at the Ji Family; she also had always believed her mom and dad loved her the most. But, her mom and dad went to Europe a year ago, and there was no mention of taking her with them.
At that time, Mommy even said she was too noisy and would affect Dad’s recovery. Back then, she didn’t think much of it, but now, thinking about it carefully, her little heart ached faintly. Could it be that Mommy didn’t like her and really found her noisy, thus not allowing her to go along?
