Chapter 1401 What about the promised control of yourself? (1)

Wesley accompanied Yuna to stroll aimlessly in the garden for a while before taking her back to the ward.

It's still early.

Yuna wandered back and forth for half a day, froze and couldn't find anything to pass the time, and simply asked Wesley, "How are things going in Kentrui City?"

Wesley took a sip of black coffee and said unhurriedly, "Rowdy wants to clear his name of economic crimes, while the police are trying to find a way to confirm that he is the murderer of Uncle Lambert, and Interpol is also collecting evidence of his crimes."

Yuna nodded, "What's the result?"

"The three parties are in a stalemate." Wesley said, "No results yet."

"..."

Yuna would be lying if he said he wasn't disappointed.

However, she had followed Rowdy for so long and knew Rowdy's strength better than anyone else.

If they wanted to bring down Rowdy, they had to play steadily and step by step. Once they started to rush, they would instead be taken advantage of by Rowdy.

Wesley took another sip of coffee to divert Yuna's attention, "I have news about Emily, do you want to hear it?"

After Yuna came back, she never saw Emily again, and could only occasionally learn about Emily's recent situation from Wesley.

She was certainly interested in Mu's news!

Yuna instantly put the matter of Rowdy behind her, and looked blearily at Wesley,"How is Emily recently?"

"He goes to the best kindergarten in the area and is mixing well." Wesley paused and said thoughtfully, "I really underestimated this kid before."

Yuna exerted his spirit of inquisitiveness, "What does it mean to be well-mixed?"

Wesley said succinctly, "Teachers like him a lot, and classmates like to invite him to their homes, especially female classmates."

"Oh." Yuna said in a strange manner, "Not strange, Emily has always been such a delightful little kid!" Said glancing at Wesley, "Not like when you were a child."

Wesley narrowed his eyes, his gaze sullen as he looked at Yuna.

Yuna thought he was going to get angry, but he didn't expect him to just ask, "You know about my childhood?"

"Aunt Helen told me." Yuna deliberately scared Wesley, "Aunt Helen also said that she would slowly tell me more when she has time later!"

Later?

Wesley's attention was on these two words, so he didn't lose his temper at Yuna.

After a while, Wesley looked at Yuna and asked, "You're curious to know about my childhood?"

"I'm curious." Yuna had an expectant look on his face, "I'm curious to know how someone like you grew up?"

Wesley frowned again, "What do you mean 'someone like me'?"

"Oh!" Yuna was too busy to explain, "There's no pejorative meaning in that statement, I promise!"

Wesley stared at Yuna for a moment, reluctantly accepting her explanation, and turned to ask, "What about you?"

"Huh?" Yuna didn't respond for a moment, "I what?"

"How did you grow up?" Wesley sized Yuna up, his gaze suddenly becoming otherworldly, "It shouldn't have been easy for you."

Yuna at a glance is not a quiet and not trouble girl, as a child is not a scourge is also a small trouble maker, she can grow up, in the eyes of Wesley is a kind of miracle.

Yuna looked at Wesley and snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know what you mean!"

Wesley said with relief, "It's good that you know."

"... "Yuna was speechless instead, silent for a while, his voice suddenly lowered, slowly said, "The person who really isn't easy is my grandmother."

Mentioning Grandma Xu, Wesley stopped joking and just looked at Yuna.

Yuna's voice was soft, "My grandmother only had my mom as a daughter, and after my parents died unexpectedly, she raised me alone through pain. She said she didn't want me to repay her, she only wanted me to be happy.

"I didn't study hard at all when I was a kid, and I ended up going to a not-so-great college, and my grandmother was still very happy and complimented me on how good I was already. When I lived in school, I had the most living expenses for a week out of several girls in our dorm. My grandmother said that I didn't have a mom and dad anymore, and she wanted to make it up to me in other ways."

"..." Wesley didn't say anything, just listened to Yuna.

Yuna's voice was even lower, "But now, I don't even have a grandmother anymore ..."

She had come to terms with her grandmother's death and had stabilized a lot when she mentioned it.

Acceptance, however, didn't mean that the incident didn't affect her anymore.

Wesley put his arm around Yuna, looked at her eyes that were clouded with a layer of sadness, and said, "You'll have me in the future."

"..." Yuna couldn't help but smile, and there was happiness in his smile that he couldn't hide.

Wesley said word for word, "What Grandma Xu once gave you, I'll double it."

Yuna thought for a moment and said mysteriously, "For the sake of you being so nice, I'll tell you a secret."

Wesley raised an eyebrow, curiosity flowing from his brow, "When you were a child?"

Yuna shook his head, his expression becoming more and more mysterious, "It's related to you."

Wesley seemed to be amused and asked with a smile, "What do you know about my secret?"

Yuna looked at Wesley and said one word at a time, "Actually, my grandmother likes you a lot."

"..." Wesley got it, unable to tell whether he was surprised or not.

Yuna also didn't care what Wesley's reaction was, and continued by herself, "After you went to our house once, my grandmother said that you were a good child, and I spat out that you were already a handful of years old and didn't have the qualifications to be called a child."

Wesley revealed Yuna with one sentence, "You just don't agree with your grandmother's words."

"Hey ..." Yuna averted his gaze and looked away somewhat sheepishly, "At that time ... I kind of meant this. But, my grandmother is old, I can't tell him the truth, lest I irritate her old man."

"Truth?" Wesley asked with good humor, "In your eyes, what does the 'truth' about me as a person look like?"

Yuna "coughed", as if hinting at the high energy ahead of Wesley, confirming, "Do you really want to hear it?"

The answer she was expecting, apparently, was that Wesley said he wasn't interested in knowing anymore.

But, where was Wesley to let her go so easily?

Wesley nodded, "Why don't you listen?"

"Well, it's your own choice ah--" Yuna averted his gaze, his speech was as fast as a tornado, and he said vaguely, "At that time, I thought that you were cold and still arrogant, cold-blooded and heartless, with no hint of a gentleman's demeanor, and Nothing but a good skin, the person who fell in love with you must be a fool!"

"..." Wesley narrowed his eyes, stormy staring at Yuna, but unexpectedly did not storm, but instead asked very calmly, "And then?"

Knowing Wesley told Yuna that this was her last chance.

That's right, Wesley is not currently angry.

However, if her next answer didn't satisfy Wesley, she would be completely played out.

"Then ...," Yuna said solemnly, "I realized that the most stupid person was me, and then, I just found out the truth."

Wesley hooked the corner of his lips and looked at Yuna in a good mood, "Tell me, what is the truth?"

"The truth is-" Yuna said in a serious manner, "Liking you is simply something that is out of one's control, it has nothing to do with being stupid or not. Your attraction is too great, liking you is all your fault. But then again, liking you isn't a blind thing, it's an incomparably correct decision."

Wesley looked at Yuna with some amusement, "Do you realize that your logic doesn't make sense at all?"

"There's no need to make sense of it!" Yuna responded articulately, "Liking someone is supposed to be an illogical thing!"

If he said any more, Yuna wouldn't know how to make it up.

In order to avoid Wesley from continuing this topic, she took the coffee cup in Wesley's hand and said, "You're drinking coffee this late, do you know what drama will be playing in the TV show?"

Wesley was unimpressed, "A cup of coffee, what kind of drama can there be?"

"There are many plots!" Yuna said with great interest, "One of the most common plots is that the female lead will go AWOL at this time and replace your coffee with milk or something like that, telling you that drinking milk is better for your body, and you're outwardly a hundred times more reluctant to do so, but you still drink the milk after the female lead leaves."

Wesley was indifferent to this plot and asked faintly, "So?"

"So--" Yuna was dumbfounded and pointed at Moushi Jue's coffee cup, "Do you want me to replace your coffee with milk as well?"

"Don't you dare!" Wesley narrowed his eyes and warned dangerously, "I don't drink milk."

Yuna was a bit reluctant and pursued, "You won't drink the one I changed too?"

"You can try-" Wesley said, word for word, "and see if I'll break your hand."

"... "Yuna reflexively shielded her hand and despised Wesley, "You, ah, just don't have romantic cells!"

Wesley thought of something and moved a few points closer to Yuna, "We can try other romantic ways."

"..." Yuna was actually looking forward to it, but deliberately stimulated Wesley, "Forget it, it's too difficult for you to play romance ... "

Wesley made a phone call, and the dean's assistant quickly sent over a door card and told Wesley that everything was ready.

Wesley "hmm", took a thin jacket and put it on Yuna, leading her out of the hospital room.

Yuna noticed with sharp eyes that when pressing the elevator, Wesley pressed up, not down.

Her curiosity was suddenly aroused and she looked at Wesley unexpectedly, "You're taking me upstairs?"

"Uh-huh."

Wesley's voice was light, but the corners of his lips held a mysterious smile.

"What for?" Yuna became more and more curious, "At this time of the day, are you taking me upstairs to bathe in the moonlight?"

The elevator happened to come down, and Wesley pulled Yuna in, "Go up and you'll know."

Yuna had to follow Wesley into the elevator, looking with anticipation at the symbol that the elevator was rising.

It wasn't what she expected to happen next.

What she was looking forward to was what Wesley understood romance to be.
