Chapter 1311 The Worst In Louisa (Part Three)
"Ha! That's why Leena is afraid of riding my car." Patricia picked up the towel she had prepared to wipe her sweat off. Speaking of Leena, Patricia hadn't seen her in a long time. The last time they had seen each other was during that incident at the Blue Enchantress. Since then, they had only kept in touch by phone.
"I bet she is! In my eyes, she is as fragile as a porcelain doll. Look how rough our skins are! But her skin is as smooth as silk," Michelle said with a little laugh.
"Exactly! When we were classmates, she was always the school muse." Patricia gave Michelle a proud smile as if Michelle were praising her instead of Leena.
"To be honest, I really envy her sometimes. Even though I'm also a woman, I am sometimes a little attracted to her. No wonder Edward is so nice to her." As Michelle leaned on the railing and stared blankly at the sky, she suddenly became weary of her current way of life. She hoped to lead a simple and peaceful life like Leena was doing.
"Don't be upset. We are all beautiful in our own ways. Let's go. I'm gonna go change." Patricia didn't envy Leena's lifestyle as she knew that it just wasn't for her. She wasn't the type who would settle down, do housework while waiting for her man to come home.
"Are you really going to participate in that competition abroad? It looks very dangerous. Plus, I believe there will be countless race veterans in the game as well." Following behind Patricia, Michelle looked at her figure with a worried look. She had just witnessed an entire race event, and still cringed when she thought about it. Though being a gang member had its risks, for Michelle, it was far less dangerous than racing. On the track, death could occur in a split second.
"Yes, I am. And don't even try to stop me. I know I might lose, but what matters is not the winning but the participation." Patricia laughed out loud. She lived very freely without any pressure.
"Okay. Then I guess I can only wish you success." Michelle shook off the negative vibes and smiled at Patricia. 'She is right. Young people should follow their dreams no matter how hard they may be," she thought.
"Thank you!" Patricia winked at Michelle. She would by no means give up the competition, for she had had a hard time persuading her parents to support her. She had even promised them that she would get married soon after, whether she won or not. As long as she gave it her best, she would feel no regret in the future. This would give her a treasure of memories to cherish for a lifetime.
After saying goodbye to Belinda, Leena went straight to the Mu family house instead of heading straight home. She hadn't seen Justin in a long time, and missed him. Though Justin might not be happy to see her, she still brought his favorite cake.
"Why are you here? I thought you were still recuperating." Justin was playing alone at the swing in the garden, holding a thick book in his hands. When seeing Leena get out of her car, he furrowed his brow and eyed her from head to toe, wondering what made her come to visit.
"Hey, kid! What's with the face? Why are you frowning at me? Are you not happy to see me?" Leena pursed her lips grumbling. She wasn't all that surprised that he was acting like this.
"I'm not frowning at you. I'm just squinting my eyes, as the sunshine is too bright." Justin jumped off the swing and started to walk into the house holding the book behind his back with both hands. He didn't invite Leena in, acting as if she weren't there. "Hey, boy. Don't you want to know what I've brought with me? I think it's for you!" Leena asked with a proud smile and was sure that the boy would be interested in it.
"You're lying. You have nothing in your hands," Justin retorted. He would not be easily fooled by her. He kept walking with a serious face. No matter how cool he pretended to be, he was still a kid, which amused Leena very much. She just smiled to herself. "Ha! You are wrong! Guess what I've brought for you? Green tea cake! But if you don't want it, I guess I'll take it home with me." Leena picked up the cake from the passenger seat and sighed as if she were really disappointed by Justin's reaction. "What? Green tea cake? Aunt Leena, you look gorgeous today!" Justin turned at once at the mention of cake. His eyes brightened up and a smile plastered across his face. Though the compliment was from his mouth, it was not very real.
"Really? But your attitude earlier made me feel that I'm not welcome here." Leena raised the paper box and gently shook it. She knew Justin would succumb to the irresistible lure of cake, and that was why she came with it.
"Aunt Leena, you must have misunderstood me. You are most welcome in this house. And if you bring cake all the time, you can come anytime you want!" Justin gave her a flattering smile. The cool look and demeanor had disappeared, all for the sweet green tea cake. "Oh? Really? So I've misunderstood you. Does anyone else want to have this delicious cake?" Leena teased him with one of her eyebrows raised. But when she saw the cover of the book in his hands, she almost dropped the cake. A kid like him was reading a book on business management! Was he really reading it, though?
"I want the cake! Please give it to me, Aunt Leena." Justin stopped pretending to be an adult and wrapped his arms around Leena's legs, shaking and begging her.
"Stop shaking me. I feel all dizzy. By the way, you are reading a business book. Is that real? Are you sure you can read it?" Leena asked with curiosity. She couldn't even read the book now at her age, not because she didn't know how to read but because the contents would bore her to death. "I can't. Why are you asking?" Justin took away the cake at once, afraid that Leena would change her mind.
"What? You can't read? Then what were you doing with it? Do you just carry it around with you without actually reading it?" Leena was even more confused. She didn't know what the boy had in his head.
