At that moment, Lisa was pinching Louisâ face as Louis was pushing on Lisaâs neck to keep her from getting too close to him. Louis didnât dare make a move. After all, the other party was a girl and he was still being good-natured.
They were both stunned when they heard each other.
Lisaâs grip loosened, âWhat did you say?â
Louis was also stunned. âWhat did you say, the Blacks, arenât they the Smiths from California?â
Lisa: â?â
Louis thought for a moment and coughed. âI think weâve explained ourselves wrong. Letâs talk things out.â
Lisa was furious. âNo, let go of me first.â
Louis: ââ¦Why donât I say âone, two, threeâ and weâll let go at the same time?â
âOkay.â
âOne, two, threeâ¦â
Even when he finished counting, they were still intertwined.
Louis said, âLet go!â
Lisa: âLet go of me first!â
Lily was speechless.
The two of them were already 20 years old. Together, they were already 40! And yet, they were still so childish.
The corners of her lips twitched. She took a step forward and said, âLouis, Lisa, youâve got it all wrong! Youâre both Noraâs best relatives! Let go quickly.â
Louis asked hesitantly, âWhat are you talking about, didnât you say the Smiths in California treated her badly?â
ââ¦Itâs the Smithsâ fault. Lisa is Noraâs auntâs daughter. If it wasnât for Noraâs aunt, she might have starved to death when she was young!â
Louis immediately let go of her when he heard that. âIt was a misunderstanding, why donât you let go, it hurts!â
Lisa looked at Lily. âWho are you, are you treating Nora badly like the Smiths?â
Lily: ââ¦Iâm Lily! Antiâs assistant! Lisa, please let her go, the Smiths have never treated Nora badly!â
As medical students, Anti was a god to them. And Antiâs assistant Lily was also a legend â after all, those who could be Antiâs assistants definitely had good medical skills!
Even Lily was an excellent surgeon.
Lisa felt respect for her and hurried to let go of Louis. His face was red with embarrassment. âMiss Lily! Iâm sorry⦠I didnât knowâ¦â
She lowered her head and stammered shyly.
Louis pointed at her angrily. âWhy are you playing weak here? I think you did it on purpose.â
Lisa immediately lost her earlier wariness and lifted her chin like a fighting chick. âIt was you who started badmouthing me as soon as I walked in!â
âYou even hit me! Iâll tell Nora later how wild this little cousin of yours is! What a yellow-haired brat!â
Lisa: â!!!â
She was furious. âYou, youâre the real yellow-haired brat!â
Louis: â?â
She touched her blonde hair and was furious. He hated it when people pointed out his yellow hair. He looked at Lisa and roared, âSay that again if you dare!â.
Lisa: âYouâre already a yellow-haired brat, why donât you let other people say it?â.
Louis took a step forward and was about to startle her when he stumbled and suddenly lunged at Lisa.
Lisa was not so agile and was immediately pinned under him.
Fortunately, there was a large lawn below them. It didnât hurt much, but coincidentally Louisâ lips were on Lisaâs.
All: â!!!â
After 10 seconds of silence, Louis stood up with his hands on the dazed grass.
Lisaâs eyes widened as she wiped her mouth with all her might. âAh, pervert!â
Seeing her look of contempt, Louis pouted. âI donât have any infectious diseases, arenât you overreacting?â
She touched her lips and, for some reason, suddenly remembered that soft feeling from before. Her face turned a little red. At that moment, he saw Lisa turn to look at the floor. Her eyes immediately reddened, and big tears rolled down her face.
Louis was surprised. âHey, what are you doing, isnât it just a kiss, is it worth crying and making a scene?â
Lisa shouted, âOf course you donât feel anything! But⦠I canât afford the lawn!â
Louis: â!!!â
It turned out that was the reason!
He scratched his head and coughed, âDonât cry. Lawns arenât expensive.â
Another tear fell from Lisaâs eye. âDidnât you just say that a single orchid costs hundreds of thousands?â.
Louis: ââ¦I lied to you.â
ââ¦â
Lisa wiped away her tears and was so angry that her heart ached. What kind of family did Nora live in? The people here were too perverted!
She followed Lily into the living room angrily.
Louis followed her and sat down on the couch. He had his hands behind his head and looked at Lisa from time to time.
Just then, Yvonne came down from upstairs and smiled, âIs there another guest at home?â
Her demeanor was still magnanimous and proper. Looking like someone from a noble family, Lisa immediately sat down and felt restrained.
Lucy replied, âMiss Yvonne, she is Miss Noraâs cousin.â
Yvonne smiled, âNora really has a lot of friends and relatives!â
Her words were full of mockery.
Lisa bit her lip. She had always been a sensitive and suspicious girl. It was obvious that she could sense Yvonneâs hostility.
Especially when Yvonne looked at her from head to toe, her eyes full of contempt.
Lisa didnât even know where to put her hands and feet.
At that moment, Louis said, âTsk, why are you playing the lady here? I hear Joel has taken away all your rights. I should buy some fireworks to celebrate.â
Yvonne clenched her fists and smiled, âLouis, thereâs a guest here. Speak properly.â
She sounded like a good sister.
Louis pouted. âSheâs not a guest. Sheâs Noraâs cousin, which means sheâs my cousin too.â
Yvonne smiled. âBut isnât Nora related to the Smiths in California? I heard she severed ties with them during the last live broadcast.â
These words made Lisa feel even more embarrassed. It was as if she was upsetting them right now.
She stood up abruptly and was about to say goodbye when she heard Louis laugh.
Yvonne asked, âWhat are you laughing at?â
Louis touched his hair. âIâm laughing at you.. Anyone can talk about kinship, but can you? Youâre not related to our family by blood. By your logic, arenât you a member of the Smiths?â
