Steward Dong's knock on the door ended the sticky atmosphere between the two.

The door opened.

Steward Dong said that lunch was ready, and his eyes fell on the two of them, which was originally just a slightly puzzled gaze, but when he saw the faces of the two, he changed color in vain.

Although Steward Dong quickly covered it up, both Jiaying and Jialan were very human, and they still took his momentary broken look into his eyes.

Garan didn't mean to explain, and took Kahotaru's hand and walked to the restaurant.

Jia Ying noticed that Steward Dong was not following, and glanced back at him, only to find that the old man was standing in place with a smile on his face.

It's just that the smile is too formatted no matter how you look at it.

In the short time of eating, the atmosphere at home gradually became strange.

Steward Dong, who used to talk a lot, didn't say a word from beginning to end, his face was very rigid, and he looked at Jialan several times.

After the two of them finished eating, Jia Lan took Jia Ying's hand again, and Steward Dong suddenly spoke, "...... Young Master, I have something to say to you alone. ”

Garan glanced at him, "Okay." ”

Releasing Hotaru's hand, Garan walked towards the study.

Steward Dong followed with a straight figure.

Jia Hotaru looked at it lightly and did not stop it.

About ten minutes later, the two were back downstairs.

Jia Ying glanced at the faces of the two and knew that Steward Dong's negotiation with Jia Lan had failed.

This was the result she knew early in the morning, but looking at Steward Dong's gloomy face, Jia Ying still stood up and said to Jia Lan, who was walking towards her, "I will also talk to Uncle Dong alone." ”

Garan touched her hair, "Hmm. ”

Jia Ying smiled at Steward Dong and shouted to him to walk out the door.

The sun wasn't too sunny outside and it looked like there were signs of rain.

Walking in the garden of the villa, Steward Dong looked at the slender figure of the girl in front of him, stopped and said, "Miss, I didn't go to visit the old man last time, when will you go again......

Jia Ying turned around and looked at Steward Dong calmly.

That quiet gaze made Steward Dong's words involuntarily swallow back to his throat, and his eyes trembled as he watched her.

Jia Ying knew that the old man would not understand, but she was obviously still evading, and she broke the old man's luck with one sentence, "Uncle Dong, this kind of thing can't be done by a person with a heart, not to mention that you know that Jia Lan will never force me." ”

Steward Dong: "......"

Jia Ying looked at the old man's face constantly changing, looking at her eyes with distress, helplessness, and annoyance, which was very complicated.

After a while, Steward Dong said with difficulty: "You are still young, maybe you are mistaken." Family affection and love are not the same, miss, haven't you liked other people before?"

"Uncle Dong, it's not me who likes other people. Jia Ying said lightly.

Steward Dong's face stiffened, knowing that he had said the wrong thing.

Jia Ying said: "I have no blood relationship with Jia Lan. ”

Steward Dong raised his voice, "But you are brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters recorded in the household registration book." ”

Finding that the girl in front of her was still calm, and it could even be said that there was no fluctuation, Steward Dong suddenly felt that such a young lady was unfamiliar, and he couldn't stop feeling distressed.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Jia Ying saw that Steward Dong had nothing else to say before speaking, "So what." ”

So what? Steward Dong didn't expect to get this sentence from Jia Ying's mouth, and not long ago he also got a similar reply from Jia Lan's mouth.

Jia Ying looked at the old man's face on the verge of collapse and sighed lightly, "Uncle Dong, I know what you are worried about, it is nothing more than the moral and ethical harm that this incident has caused to me, as well as the eyes of outsiders. ”

"I don't care about that. Jia Ying said lightly.

Steward Dong said bitterly: "It's not that if you say you don't care, it really doesn't matter. ”

"What does it matter. Kahoru asked rhetorically.

Steward Dong opened his mouth but was dumbfounded.

Hotaru: "I've seriously considered the change in my relationship with Garan, but not about the external factors, but about the impact of such a change on the two of us. I like the way I've been getting along with Garan, and I'm worried that a change in my relationship will lead to a bad direction. ”

Steward Dong said: "That's right, you are just brother and sister who have too deep feelings. "I blame myself in my heart, how can I just watch the young lady and the eldest young master be too close and not stop it, maybe it is those behaviors that go beyond the brother and sister that make the two go this way.

Jia Ying said: "Whether it's a brother or sister, or a lover, I'll give him what Jia Lan wants." ”

Steward Dong found a loophole in his words, "A lover is not something that one party wants and the other party is willing to give, in case the young lady falls in love with another ......"

"No, it won't. Jia Ying interrupted Steward Dong's death, don't think that when they go to the garden, Jia Lan can't hear the conversation between the two. Jia Hotaru knew very well that with Jia Lan's current ability, as long as he wanted to hear it, let alone a garden, he could hear it even if it was farther away.

Steward Dong looked at Jia Ying's eyes like an ignorant child, how can you say that you will not be able to do this kind of thing.

But seeing that Jia Ying showed a meaningful smile, he repeated again, "There will be no one else." ”

Garan won't let anyone get close to her, won't give anyone this opportunity.

"Uncle Dong, you may not understand what I mean, if I have the slightest rejection of Garan, I will not agree to him, this is not only forcing myself, but also insulting him. I like him, there's no doubt about that. Jia Ying said: "It's just to give him the choice of relationship." ”

Jia Ying said softly: "I know that Uncle Dong wants my grandfather to help me out, don't have such thoughts anymore." ”

Steward Dong's face completely decayed.

He looked at Jia Ying's usual face, never expecting that such a big thing would be completely inappropriate in the eyes of the two parties.

If he talks too much, he will become a villain.

Steward Dong sighed, "Why do you make me look like a sinner beating mandarin ducks." ”

Jia Ying said: "I know that Uncle Dong loves me, all for my good." ”

Steward Dong was angry when he heard this, "This kind of 'good for you' is not what Miss likes." ”

Garan smiled but didn't say a word.

Steward Dong sighed again, shook his head, waved his hand, and gritted his teeth again.

The old man's expression was so rich that Ka Hotaru was so surprised that he almost laughed. If this really laughs, Steward Dong is not easy to coax.

After a rich change in expression, Steward Dong gritted his teeth and muttered, "Day and night, it's hard to prevent thieves!"

He thought that such a low voice would not be heard, but he didn't know that a strange look flashed on the face of Jia Hotaru on the other side.

Although this is a bit strange to use on this, let alone say it, it is very expressive.

After some conversation, Steward Dong was appeased by Jia Ying.

If you want to talk about the focus of Steward Dong's riot, I am still worried about Jia Ying's injury.

Obviously, he has been in this house for ten years, and he has been getting along with Jia Lan longer than Jia Ying now, but it is obvious that Steward Dong is still partial to Jia Ying.
