Chapter 973: I’m Accompanying You (58)
“Uncle, let’s go back to Boston tomorrow.”
“You like this kind?”
Zuo Yue and Xu Chengfeng’s voices sounded almost at the same time. When they finished speaking, both of them paused slightly.
Zuo Yue turned to look at Xu Chengfeng in surprise. Xu Chengfeng looked at her calmly.”Returning to Boston so soon? Are you willing to part with this kid?”
Zuo Yue blinked and suddenly smiled.””Uncle, are you misunderstanding something? John Jr. and I are just friends. Even if my mother wants me to get closer to him, you can see that he’s still a big boy.”
Xu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows but did not say anything else. He turned to look at the figure jumping back and forth under the basketball hoop and said calmly,””But you’re indeed at the age where you should have a good relationship.”
Just now, Zuo Yue had suspected that her uncle might have thought that there was something going on between her and John Junior, so he was a little jealous. Before she could get over that strange thought, Xu Chengfeng poured a bucket of cold water on her again.
It turned out that he was not explaining that she had a boyfriend or that there was someone else by her side.
“Yes, I think so.” Zuo Yue responded and did not say anything else.
However, Xu Chengfeng was sitting right next to her. He was so close that she could see his handsome side profile when she turned her head. She could clearly see the faint blue veins on his neck. He was so close that the pleasant smell on his body kept entering her nose. She was so close that her heart was beating so violently that she could not calm down.
However, Zuo Yue still sat beside him, unwilling to leave even though she knew that she was not his friend. Even though she did not know what to do in this awkward situation, she felt as if she had the whole world just by sitting beside him.
“My mom has already agreed to let us go back to Boston tomorrow. My mom is already very grateful that you’re willing to stay at the Xu family’s house for two more days because of me, so she’s allowing us to leave tomorrow.”As Zuo Yue spoke, she looked at Xu Chengfeng’s expression. However, she saw that his expression was indifferent and did not show any sorrow or joy or any unnecessary expression because he was leaving or staying.
“Uncle…”
“Focus.” Xu Chengfeng looked in the direction of the basketball hoop.”Don’t you like watching football?”
Zuo Yue turned to look at John Junior and suddenly smiled. She suddenly whispered into Xu Chengfeng’s ear,””I don’t like to watch. He’s not good at basketball. It’s already good enough for him to score five out of ten shots. It’s my mom who asked me to walk and chat with him, so I’ve been sitting here?”
“Is that so?” Xu Chengfeng turned to look at her indifferently.””I saw that you were smiling very happily just now.”
Zuo Yue looked into his eyes and asked,””Then if I really like him, will you, uncle…”
However, before she could finish her sentence, Xu Chengfeng suddenly turned his head away from her and said coldly,””It has nothing to do with me.” He stood up and walked out of the court.
Zuo Yue sat in her original position in a daze. In the blink of an eye, she saw Xu Chengfeng leave just like that. He did not even have the intention of turning around to look at them again.
But he clearly just
Ming Ming suddenly walked over and sat beside her. He was talking to her patiently and pulled her to sit beside him.
Could it be that all of this had nothing to do with him?
Was she really the only one who had feelings that she shouldn’t have?
“Zuo Yue!” John Junior suddenly ran over. Where’s Uncle?”
“Let’s go.”
“Gone? Just leave like this? I wanted to ask him to give me some pointers. I wanted him to teach me how to shoot so easily. The position he was standing at just now was clearly the most difficult place to shoot, but he could shoot so accurately…”
John Junior said as he played with the ball in his hand.”The weather is a little cold. Do you want to go back?”
“Okay, let’s go back.”
John Junior shrugged. It seemed that she really didn’t like watching the game. He threw the ball away and left the court with Zuo Yue.
When she was walking back, Zuo Yue started to lose her composure again. Little John saw that she had something on her mind and did not say much. He only looked around and did not see Xu Chengfeng. He did not know where he had gone, so he suddenly said,”I feel that although your uncle is cold, he seems to care about you a lot. You should have a good relationship with him, right?”
Zuo Yue turned to look at him.”
“Isn’t that simple?” John Junior raised his eyebrows. You don’t know that after they drove back, your uncle got out of the car and watched us from outside the stadium for a while. At first, I only noticed that there were people outside, but I didn’t think too much of it. After all, I don’t know all the people in the Xu family.”
As he spoke, John Junior moved closer to Zuo Yue and continued,””Then I saw him suddenly walk over. I really didn’t expect it at that time.”
“Didn’t think of what? I didn’t expect that someone who looks like an elite in society would be better than you at throwing a basketball?”Zuo Yue said with a smile.
“Tsk.” John Junior rolled his eyes at her.” I didn’t expect your uncle to be so bored as to sit beside you and watch me play. Although I could feel that he wasn’t looking at me at all, I didn’t expect him to have the time to sit there with you for so long.”
Zuo Yue stopped in her tracks, as if something had risen in her heart. She said absent-mindedly,””He was looking in your direction the whole time. Why didn’t he see you play?”
“Do you think I don’t know whether you watched me play or not? Your uncle is just sitting there with you, so I think you must have a very good relationship with him.”
Zuo Yue stood still and did not move. Instead, she suddenly turned to look in the direction of the court and then in the direction where Xu Chengfeng’s figure had long disappeared. A sense of joy welled up in her heart.
Uncle didn’t hate her that much. He actually liked her, right?
“Hey, Zuo Yue, what are you laughing at?”John Junior glanced at her and asked in confusion.
Zuo Yue, however, was smiling with a mysterious face and did not tell him. Instead, she suddenly put her hands behind her back happily and swaggered into the front hall in a good mood.
“Sigh! Hey! Are you women all crazy? Just now, you looked like you had a lot on your mind, but suddenly, for some reason, the dark clouds turned sunny? What’s so happy about it? Tell me so that I can be happy too…”
“It has nothing to do with you!”
“How is it okay? It’s obvious that I made you laugh!”John Junior pestered Zuo Yue into the front hall.
