My little uncle and cousin Mo had a deep discussion behind closed doors, but they refused to let me in. This made me very unhappy, so I kicked their door hard.
Jing Tian pulled me over and stopped me from using violence.
“What is there that I can’t listen to? You shouldn’t hide business or personal matters from me!” I felt indignant.
Jing Tian hugged me. “Alright, their common wish is for you to be safe and sound. Don’t bother with them. I’ll take you for a ride.”
I felt resentful.
Qu Hao teased me. “You’re doing this because you know they won’t scold you.”
I was about to retort when Jing Ni pulled him back. “Help me look at a code.”
Qu Hao immediately obeyed without looking back.
I put my hands on my hips. “Jing Ni! You’re biased!”
Jing Ni made a face at me. She quickly followed Qu Hao and left.
I became even angrier.
Jing Tian held my hand and walked out. “I’ll bring you to play. I haven’t shown you the sea view yet! Today is the second half of the month. We can still see the people on the island rushing to the sea at this time. Maybe we can find some beautiful conch shells.”
I was not interested in conch shells, but I wanted to play with Jing Tian. From my previous life to this life, we didn’t have many opportunities to play together.
We had lived two lives, but they were hard lives.
I threw Tong Le and Tong Mo to the back of my head. Hmph! Who cares about them.
Sitting in the car, I saw that the streets and buildings on both sides were damaged in many places. I asked in shock, “Was the damage that severe?”
Jing Tian nodded slightly. “Tong Zhuo must have been determined to get you. He didn’t mean for this island to remain. This is the best we can salvage. There’s still a lot of work to be done. The rest is up to Gu Nian.”
I was a little worried. “But Gu Nian isn’t even the president yet. There is so much red tape. It’ll take too much time. When will the election be held? I hope the islanders can settle down as soon as possible. Those vice presidents are useless too. Just kick them out so that they can stop wasting precious public funds!”
Jing Tian held the steering wheel with one hand while touching my head. “Nanxing has grown up. She’s worried about the country and the people.”
I wasn’t satisfied with this compliment at all. I turned around and glared at him. “You should praise me for growing up to be beautiful and pretty!”
Jing Tian nodded with a smile. “But you’re already beautiful, to begin with.”
I felt a little proud of myself. I couldn’t suppress my smile, but I still asked, “Really? Do you really think I’m beautiful?”
The car stopped at a red light.
Jing Tian tilted his head to look at me. He reached out his hand to grab the back of my head and leaned over to give me a heavy kiss on my lips. He even bit the corner of my lips lightly. He let go of me and said, “You are the most beautiful girl in my heart! I’ve already cast a spell on your lips. You belong to me alone for the rest of your life!”
I touched the corner of my lips that had been bitten. I wasn’t angry at all. I felt extremely happy.
The green light lit up. Jing Tian started the car slowly.
I was surprised to find that Jing Tian’s ears were a little red. I couldn’t help but laugh.
I leaned my head against the control panel and looked at Jing Tian’s profile. He was so handsome!
“Jing Tian, you’ve changed,” I said seriously.
“What do you mean?” He glanced at me in confusion.
I cleared my throat and rested my chin on my hand. “You never used to say nice things to me, but now every word you say is sweet! You’ve learned how to sweet-talk!”
