Chapter 172 Your Skills Have Improved
"You're right. Your skills have improved a lot."
Hearing his frivolous words, she blushed with shyness and gently tapped his chest.
"Shut up! I want to go home!"
"Where?"
Seeing her shy look, Jack wanted to tease her.
"Go back..."
She pinched him on the shoulder out of anger.
'He just fooled her on purpose. That's outrageous!'
"It hurts..."
Jack let go of her and stopped joking. He stopped smiling and turned to walk to the old residence.
As he was leaving, she followed him immediately.
'What's wrong with him? Does he want to leave her here and go back alone?'
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going back to get something."
As he remembered that there was a coat left in the bedroom, he was about to go back to get it back.
"Do you want to go with me?"
He stopped and asked in confusion.
When she was about to nod, she thought of the disdainful look on Annie's face. Then she shook her head.
'I'd better not meet the Nan family. They are all big shots. I can't afford to offend them, but I can avoid them.' Knowing what she was worried about, Jack didn't insist and held her in his arms.
"No one dares to bully you."
This sentence was full of irresistible authority, and the tone was exactly the same as that of Mr. Albert. Somehow, she felt particularly relieved and nodded in his arms.
"All right, all right. It's not a matter of life and death. Why are you so sentimental? It's just to get a coat."
Feeling a little embarrassed, she pushed away Jack and walked towards the car outside.
Jack smiled helplessly. This girl's little mouth was really unforgiving.
Standing in front of the car, Lily enjoyed the view of the old house.
Mr. Albert really had a good taste. It was warm in winter and cool in summer, like spring all the year round. There were countless butterflies in the air, and only a few withered leaves inadvertently fell, and the rest were all lush.
In fact, this place was very suitable for retirement. No wonder Mr. Albert was still so healthy at his age. It was obvious that he was nourished by the spiritual energy of nature.
"You are in a good mood."
When she was concentrating on looking, the voice behind her made her tremble.
His voice was dripping with sarcasm!
She turned around and greeted him politely. Then she kept silent, alert.
"Sister-in-law, Nan's old house is not bad, isn't it?"
With his eyes closed, William leaned against the car, as if feeling the breeze.
"Well, it's good."
She didn't know what he was up to. Since what had happened this morning, her liking for him had diminished greatly. She had thought that he was a man who knew right from wrong. However, the villain Roy kept speaking for him, so he didn't seem to be a good person!
"Yes, everyone envies the Nan clan. People in the business world want to cooperate with the Nan clan, and women want to marry into our family, but it's not as easy as they think."
With a sneer on his face, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her.
How could she not know that he was referring to her? 'Well. They all want to bully me?' A nameless anger rose in her heart.
"What do you want to say? If you think I don't deserve it, just say it. Don't beat around the bush. It's tiring."
She said with a cold face, just like the way he spoke before at dinner.¶¶¶¶¶¶¶
