Lin Wenwen looked at Luo Yuanjun. No wonder Dong Xinxin asked her to kick his a.s.s when she had the chance. The boy was really, really annoying. He would get excited whether she responded to him or not.
“How would you like me to respond to you then?” Lin Wenwen looked at him and asked blandly.
Hearing that, Luo Yuanjun stopped short, then replied with, “Em… No… You don’t need to respond to me at all… You can do whatever you want…”
After saying that, he automatically stepped back. The look in Lin Wenwen’s eyes was strange. That wasn’t like something which could exist in Dong Xinxin’s eyes. She had such a strong vibe now that he felt as if she could suppress her within just a moment.
This time, Luo Yuanjun finally felt that Dong Xinxin wasn’t the same as before. No wonder Dong Lijia gave him such a warning just now.
Lin Wenwen glanced at the others and observed their expressions. Except for the two girls who were pretending to be excited but had actually been brewing some kind of scheme, the others seemed perfectly normal.
Last time, the two girls’ plan had totally failed. So this time, they would probably come up with something new. Looking at their sparkling eyes, Lin Wenwen easily figured out what they were thinking. They would probably encourage her to swim in the ocean.
After all, a fat girl like Dong Xinxin could look very funny in a swimsuit. She wouldn’t even need a swim ring. In front of so many pretty boys and girls, she could become something to laugh at, or something disgusting.
As she looked at the two girls, Qin Jiao and Lin Yuehui hurriedly walked to her with a smile. “Xinxin, we’re surprised that you’ll come with us. We had invited you before, but you didn’t seem interested back then,” Qin Jiao looked at Lin Wenwen and said to her delightedly.
“Yeah,” Lin Yuehui added, “We thought you wouldn’t come with us.”
They had plans to coax Dong Xinxin into joining the trip. To their surprise, the girl asked to go. That was great, as it saved them a lot of effort.
Lin Wenwen gave them a small smile as she said with a sour tone, “Oh? Don’t you girls want me to go?”
The two girls who were both wearing delicate make-up paused briefly, then automatically glanced at each other. Lin Yuehui hurriedly waved at Lin Wenwen and said, “How is that possible? We were worried that you might not come with us. We were just talking about how to convince you to go.”
Lin Wenwen smiled at them, then walked to a chair near the window and sat down. She sat by the window, faintly implying that she wanted to be separated from the others.
Qin Jiao and Lin Yuehui looked at each other, both feeling a little confused. Lin Yuehui intended to go to Lin Wenwen and say something more to her, but Qin Jiao had lost her patience. She dragged Lin Yuehui’s sleeve and brought her back to their own seats.
When did the fat girl become so aloof and proud? She was even talking with a disdainful tone now. It looked like the two of them so eagerly wanted to be friends with her now.
Luo Yuanjun had stepped back, but he didn’t stop talking. He glanced at upstairs and said, “Eh? Fat Ball, why didn’t your brother come down with you?”
Lin Wenwen sat down on the chair. Her body had almost covered the chair entirely up. She had gotten used to that body already though. She was fat, but so what? That was her very own business. She was fat, but flexible and nimble.
“He’ll be here soon,” Lin Wenwen said while looking at her phone. She didn’t even take a glance at the others.
Deng Chenfei, who was remaining silent the whole time, abruptly turned to Lin Wenwen and said, “Xinxin, have you been… Hmm, did anything happen recently?”
“What? No.” Lin Wenwen raised her head and looked at him as she shook her head.
As Deng Chenfei asked that question, everyone turned to Dong Xinxin and looked at her questioningly. After hearing her answer, Luo Yuanjun didn’t joke with her again like he always did. He looked at her seriously, then turned back to Deng Chenfei, who seemed to have fallen into thoughts.
Deng Chenfei rarely talked, but still, he asked that question out loud. Hearing that, Lin Yuehui immediately said to Lin Wenwen, “Yeah, I too feel that something has happened to you recently. I feel that you’ve changed a little.”
Lin Wenwen still gave her a small smile and said, “Oh, so be it. Everyone will change at some point.”
She didn’t pretend to be the seventeen-year-old Dong Xinxin, because the current Dong Xinxin was cold to those people too. Apart from the fact that she wanted to beat Luo Yuanjun up, she didn’t even say anything about the others.
Deng Chenfei looked at her. His handsome face wore no expression, but his slender eyes were narrowed. “People change for reasons. Xinxin, what’s your reason?”
Lin Wenwen looked at him as she shrugged and said, “Time, I guess.”
Seven years… The surrounding environment changed people. Without spending seven years in the post-apocalyptic era struggling to survive, Dong Xinxin might still be the same silly fat girl.
On hearing that answer, Deng Chenfei gave her another glance, then turned back. Lin Yuehui looked at Lin Wenwen with confusion. She didn’t really understand the answer the latter gave. So, she couldn’t help but look at Qin Jiao questioningly.
Qin Jiao spread her hands; she didn’t understand it either.
Meanwhile, Luo Yuanjun blinked and looked at Lin Wenwen again.
“Let’s go! It’s already about three o’clock. If we start driving now, we should be there by five. Have you guys booked the hotel rooms yet?” Dong Lijia’s voice was heard from the upstairs. The people raised their heads to see him come down the stairs.
Luo Yuanjun immediately waved at him and said, “We’ve booked the rooms ages ago, as well as the seafood banquet. There’s gonna be delicious food waiting for us.”
Dong Lijia nodded, then waved a hand and said, “Oh, let’s get going then. Why are you still sitting there?” While speaking, he was already heading straight toward the door. Lin Wenwen stood up and walked toward the outside too.
Outside, a series of sports cars were parked in a line. Lin Wenwen looked at Dong Lijia; she needed him to give her a ride.
The chauffeur brought Dong Lijia’s red sports car out of the garage. Lin Wenwen wore dislike on her face the moment she saw that car.
What a vivid red! She wasn’t expecting Dong Lijia to like red sports cars.
Noticing the expression on her face, Dong Lijia instantly grew unhappy. “What’s that look on your face? Don’t you like my little wife here? Take another car then.”
Lin Wenwen rolled her eyes and said, “Little wife? Yeah, love your little wife as hard as you can. I wonder if you’ll still love it in tens of days.”
After the apocalypse, no one would ever drive a sports car.
