Chapter 838: Chapter 699: Liked You From the First Glance
Jian Dan was taken aback, "No way, no way..."
Lai Wei casually picked up a piece, looking at the price tag,"Two hundred thousand.
Take a closer look at these clothes, bought in such piles. According to Mrs. Lin, there are more not delivered yet. This is a rough estimate, when calculated carefully, it’s probably much more."
Jian Dan suddenly felt these clothes were burning her hands, she stared blankly, Zhao Linlin wasn’t surprised, just a bit shocked,"Wow, didn’t expect Bo’s mom is so nice, buying you so much, looks like she really likes you."
Jian Dan nodded gloomily,"Yes."
All three stayed at Jian Dan’s for dinner, Mrs. Lin’s cooking received unanimous praise, Mrs. Lin chuckled,"In the future, if you like, come find Jian Dan, after all, she’s the only child at home, and not many people visit her. Playing with her makes her very happy, plus she likes the food I make, it makes me happy too."
Zhao Linlin and the others laughed till their eyes curved, thinking Mrs. Lin is really wonderful.
The full table of dishes was wiped clean. When Bo Qin returned, the young girls were chatting on the sofa, each holding a cup of freshly squeezed juice. Mrs. Lin was still busy in the kitchen, seemingly preparing a midnight snack for the young girls. When Mrs. Lin first saw Bo Qin, she was about to speak, but Bo Qin gestured, making Mrs. Lin quiet down.
On the TV, an American drama was playing, Zhao Linlin ranted continuously, while Jian Dan smiled and lowered her head, reaching for cherries to eat. Lai Wei offered half her shoulder for Jian Dan to lean on, Mi Lu angrily joined Zhao Linlin in ridiculing the show’s writer, who she thought was utterly brainless.
Zhao Linlin’s colorful language filled the air, exclaiming, "Crap, shit," nonstop.
Bo Qin listened, his brows furrowed, about to speak, but Lai Wei chimed in first,"Zhao Linlin, watch your mouth or I’ll make you wash it outside."
Zhao Linlin immediately clammed up,"Okay, okay, it’s all my fault, I know, I’ll stop swearing, alright?"
Jian Dan took her phone, changed the TV projection, the sound effect came out eerie and spooky, high heels clicking unnervingly on the tiles.
Mi Lu’s face turned white,"Jian Dan, what the heck did you put on."
Jian Dan laughed with intentional malice,"It’s just a ghost movie."
Lai Wei gave a sarcastic smile at Jian Dan’s little face and chuckled,"Didn’t expect our Little Jian Dan had such a nerve-wracking ability."
Jian Dan pouted,"Why do I feel like you’re mocking me."
Lai Wei smiled, Zhao Linlin climbed on the sofa, wrapping Mi Lu’s arm, half her face hidden behind Mi Lu,"Lulu, aren’t you scared? Your back is so straight."
Mi Lu seemed to have just regained her voice,"How can I not be scared? Scared to death, can’t speak from fear."
Everyone:"..."
The reaction speed, unbelievable.
Lai Wei kindly suggested,"Jian Dan, project something else, this movie isn’t suitable for everyone to watch. Look at the atmosphere, is this the time for such a film? Plus, none of us will dare go home later."
"Exactly, exactly."
Jian Dan smiled with crescent eyes, turned aside to grab the phone, paused, turned her face seeing Bo Qin standing not far away, she exclaimed,"Uncle Qin."
Bo Qin came back?
The few girls all turned their heads, looking at Bo Qin standing arrogantly nearby, his arm hanging a suit jacket, tall and slender, his handsome face cold, looking like an emotionless machine.
Upon hearing Jian Dan’s call, he gave a small nod, turned upstairs, Bo Qin’s presence suddenly felt oppressive, even though not in the same space, there was an odd feeling of pressure.
Jian Dan looked at everyone,"You guys can’t leave me here alone."
Everyone:"..."
Words were blocked from coming out, completely stumped, too...
Bo Qin went upstairs, not intending to affect their mood, knowing his presence made the young girls uneasy.
Mrs. Lin brought a midnight snack up to him, he stopped her,"Mrs. Lin, did Little Miss have a bad mood when returning with my mother, or was she unhappy?"
Mrs. Lin thought for a moment, shook her head,"The young lady just feels apologetic. Madam bought her so many things, both expensive and plenty, she feels uncomfortable."
Bo Qin chuckled,"So many things."
Mrs. Lin:"..."
Her concept of consumption was under serious distortion,"Sir, but Little Jian Dan’s spending habits differ from yours. Receiving so much, of course she’d feel embarrassed, especially under these circumstances, she feels worse. Didn’t you say she hasn’t spent the money you gave her?"
