Chapter 168 Smart People Won't Do Stupid Things
The driver stuck his head out of the car window and yelled to Luo Ying in a dialect, "Miss, you haven't paid it yet! And the fines!"
"Got it!" Luo Ying turned back impatiently, and drew a few pink banknotes from her handbag and threw them into the car.
The driver said dissatisfiedly, "Miss, you told me, as long as I can catch up with that car, you will give me 100,000!"
Luo Ying sneered, "Why don't you rob!"
"You want to go back your words?" The driver opened the door and got out of the car. He was tall and stout, and looked scary.
There were few people here. Even if Luo Ying was defiant, she was still a little afraid.
In the end, she did not give the driver a hundred thousand yuan, but gave the driver all the cash she carried.
Although she felt a little aggrieved, she couldn't contain her excitement at the thought that she would soon be able to hook up with the young master of the Clarke Group.
...
When Gloria got back at home, aunt Hu came out from inside.
"Mrs. Clarke, you are back." Aunt Hu narrowed her eyes slightly, looking gentle and loving.
Gloria liked aunt Hu. She also smiled and said, "I am going on a business trip tomorrow. I will go up and pack up things first."
"Go ahead. When Mr. Clarke comes back, the dinner will be ready."
"Okay."
Gloria returned to the room and pulled out her suitcase, only to remember that she didn't know how long she would be on the business trip.
It was estimated to be a week.
Gloria thought like this and then got up and went to the cloakroom to get her clothes. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
It was just a week. It would be enough to bring an extra coat, and then bring a set of under dress.
She put her clothes on the bed and leaned over to stack them. Then she heard the door being pushed open.
Gloria turned around and saw Kenny standing in the doorway.
She smiled at him slightly, "You are back."
Kenny lifted his feet and walked towards her, and took her hand to his lapel, indicating that he needed her to untie his tie.
Kenny didn't seem to be afraid of the cold. In the winter, he also wore a shirt and a suit. Occasionally, he would wear an extra overcoat outside. Under normal circumstances, he would not.
Gloria felt a little displeased. He could dress so gracefully, but she had to be wrapped like a Zhongzi (pyramid-shaped snacks made of glutinous rice wrapped in reed leaves)!
She deliberately tightened Kenny's tie and constricted his neck.
Although Kenny was still expressionless, it made people feel clearly that he was not angry.
He patted Gloria's hand pulling his tie, and said with little deterrence, "Don't be childish"
Gloria curled her lip and obediently untied his tie.
Kenny held her head with one hand and bowed his head to kiss on the corner of her lips. His low voice that was deliberately lowered by him was fascinating, "This is a reward."
Gloria tutted, expressing disdain for his "reward".
Kenny seemed annoyed, kissed her heavily, and then asked her, "I heard you are going on a business trip?"
The man got the news quickly. She just mentioned it to aunt Hu, and he knew it when he came back.
Gloria nodded, fiddled with the buttons on his suit, and said, "Yes, grandpa called me personally and asked me to go on a business trip with him. It was probably decided temporarily, and we will leave tomorrow."
After listening to her, Kenny didn't speak immediately. He narrowed his eyes, and his eyes were dark. She didn't know what he was thinking about.
"What are you thinking?" Gloria put out a finger and poked Kenny's chest.
Kenny grabbed her finger that was playing with his buttons and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry. Your grandpa is still smarter than Loren."
Smart people wouldn't do stupid things.
No matter what Mayo's purpose was for asking Gloria to go on a business trip with him, he would definitely let Gloria return unscathed.
The rest of the Taylor family still thought that Kenny was "Leon", but Mayo knew he was Kenny.
He accompanied Gloria back to the Taylor family for dinner that day, telling Mayo by action that Gloria was the young mistress of the Clarke family and his wife. The Taylor family should stop trying to do something stupid to challenge the authority of the Clarke family.
Gloria cast a stern glance at him, "There you go!"
Kenny stroke her head, and his eyes fell on the clothes she had placed on the bed to be sorted.
Kenny picked up the coat on the bed and looked down at her, "So thin?"
Gloria pulled his suit silently, imitating his tone and saying, "So thin?"
"..." Kenny was speechless.
"I'm a man. I'm not afraid of cold." Kenny said, and took the coat into the cloakroom and took out a down jacket from inside.
Oh, long down jacket again.
Gloria curled her lip and was speechless.
"I'm not afraid of cold, either!" Gloria couldn't help but refute him. She was also a young girl in her early twenties, okay?
If she wore an overcoat and a dress, how youthful and beautiful she would look!
But Kenny ignored her directly.
He folded the down jacket and stuffed it directly into her suitcase, and folded the rest of her things and put them in one by one.
His movements were very skillful, as if he often did these things.
Gloria was a little puzzled, "You even know how to fold clothes and pack your luggage!"
Kenny, the master of the Clarke family, actually could do such a thing.
When Gloria was at home, the servants folded the clothes and packed the luggage for her, or Tina did these for her.
"I always pack my own luggage when I need to go on a business trip." Kenny said, and went to the bathroom to help her get toiletries.
Gloria was flattered and followed him, "I'll do this myself..."
Kenny looked at her with a smile, took a step back, and let Gloria do it herself.
Gloria realized that she knew too little about Kenny.
She only thought he was an overbearing and moody young master, but she didn't expect that he would know how to pack up clothes, and fold his clothes more neatly than she did.
The atmosphere was harmonious. Gloria thought it was a good time to mention something.
She asked offhandedly, "Who taught you to do these?"
Kenny seemed to be silent for a moment before speaking, "My mother."
Gloria's hands froze. She realized that she had accidentally asked questions that she should not have asked. With an apologetical look, she fell into silent and didn't know what to say.
"What expression is that?" Kenny reached out and pinched her face. His voice was rarely calm, "No one has dared to mention my mother in front of me over the years, but I sometimes want to hear
people talk about her. If it is too long, she will be forgotten, but those who harmed her can live a stable life. It is not fair."
Gloria looked at Kenny. She felt distressed and wanted to hug him.
Then she did.
Kenny bent over, buried his face between her shoulder and neck, sniffed deeply, and tightened his arms, He slowly said, "You can refuse Mayo's request and don't go."
