Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 472 Unexpected Meeting

Finn said nothing, comparing the names of the potted plants on the ground with those in his mind.

Mrs. Wolfhard was not annoyed, but continued to tease, "You really put in a lot of effort. What price did you offer the mercenary? He collected so many things for you."

"The same two hundred thousand."

Mrs. Wolfhard raised her eyebrows and looked at the pile on the ground. "These should add up to more than five million."

"No, there are several things that are wrong."

Finn enlarged the picture and showed it to her: "The shape of the leaves is wrong, it should be serrated, not round. And this pot, it looks like two different things at first glance."

Mrs. Wolfhard leaned forward, looked at the picture, then at the flowerpot on the ground, and fell silent.

She couldn't tell any difference...

"Does Wei'er know that you have spent so much time and effort on her?"

Finn paused, not knowing how to respond.

"It's no use just working hard behind the scenes, you have to let people see it. People who only know how to give silently often don't have a good ending. To be liked you have to fight and compete for it, do you understand?" Mrs. Wufard put her hands on her hips and taught him with a look of disappointment.

Finn frowned slightly, "Mom, don't make blind guesses. It will be bad for her reputation if it gets out."

Mrs. Wolfhard's eyes widened in disbelief. After a pause of a few seconds, she said absurdly, "I'm just guessing?! You've been defending it like this! And you still say 'I'm just guessing'?!"

"Besides, is my son a person of low status? How can his reputation be affected?"

Finn's eyes flickered, he looked aside and whispered, "She's still young."

"Fifteen is not young. Your cousin Raven got engaged at the age of sixteen, and your second uncle and his family are also looking for suitable people for their children. It's not like you two should be together right now. You have to settle down first."

Finn was speechless. Not knowing what to say, he simply shut up.

Seeing her son like this, Mrs. Wolfhard became angry: "If it were me, I would have caught up with him long ago! Hesitation, indecision, dragging your feet, and looking back and forth will only make you give up the opportunity! Why did I give birth to such a useless person like you! You are just like your dead father who never comes home! You didn't inherit a single good thing from me!"

"I get angry just seeing you!"

Mrs. Wolfhard started to curse at him like a bomb had been lit, then she stormed out with her skirt lifted.

Finn: ...

Finn raised his hand and pinched his burning earlobe, then he exhaled and handed the money to the mercenary. Then he returned to the bedroom and stared at the fish swimming in the fish tank in a daze.

It had been less than half a year since he swore to his friends that he would not fall in love with his sister. But was it really love? He was not sure.

There is no feeling of accelerated heartbeat, fluttering hearts, and wishing to stick together all the time as described in the books. He just thinks of me occasionally and gives me a little help within his ability. Is this also considered love?

Finn felt that his mother's view on "liking" was a bit too casual. He still insisted on his original point of view. He treated Selvie specially only because she was his friend's sister, and she had a good personality, so he felt comfortable with her.

Talking about feelings is a bit too much. Who would like a minor who is so much younger than themselves?

In the fish tank, the flowing tail of the pleated Thai lion passed by his eyes. For a moment, Finn seemed to see Selvie turning her head to look at him, her long hair swaying in the wind.

Finn closed his eyes tightly to dispel the illusion in front of him, and wanted to get rid of the fish tank.

He originally raised them just to test poison. Without the illustrated book that Selvie shared with him later as a guide, he didn't know whether the plants he collected were poisonous or not, and whether they were harmful to the body. That's why he used these fish for testing.

It is no longer necessary now. The flamboyant and gorgeous red tail sways in front of my eyes day after day, disturbing my mind.

The doorbell of the room rang and Finn stood up.

"Master, Madam asked you to change your clothes and go downstairs."

Finn was a little confused, but he did as he was told.

When we got downstairs, Mrs. Wolfhard was already dressed and ready to go out. "Come with me to try on the dress for the royal banquet the day after tomorrow."

"Can't we let them come home?"

Mrs. Wolfhard glanced at him. "I just want to go shopping, so what? What's the fun of staying at home?"

Finn had nothing to say and could only accept his fate.

After driving for more than twenty minutes, the two arrived at Hayden Shopping Center.

After helping her mother try on clothes, she bought some new jewelry and clothes for the Chinese New Year. They also restocked Alpha's snacks.

After more than two hours, Mrs. Wolfhard finally felt tired.

Sometimes, Finn was very impressed and thought that his mother's iron will and physical strength were stronger than those of some of his classmates because she could walk so much in such high heels.

"I'm hungry, let's find a place to eat."

Hearing his mother finally speak, Finn said without hesitation: "It has been booked in advance, Zhongshan Courtyard on the top floor, let's go."

"You didn't even ask me what I wanted to eat!" Mrs. Wolfhard said unhappily.

Finn took a breath, "What would you like to eat?"

Mrs. Wolfhard thought for a while. "I don't know. Forget it. Let's go quickly. I'm starving..."

Finn: “…”

"Hello, how many people are there? Do you have a reservation?" The waiter in the store came over to greet them.

"You two, we made an appointment an hour ago, and the names we left are..."

"Finn? Aunt Wolfhard?"

A strange voice came, and the two turned around and found that it was someone they knew in the circle. So they turned around and said hello.

"What a coincidence! You're here for dinner too?" Mrs. Wolfhard said with a smile.

"Well, I'm free today, so I'll go out for a walk. How are you feeling lately?"

"Okay, that's fine. Who's this person next to you?" Mrs. Wolfhard's eyes moved to the person standing next to the man.

The man seemed a little embarrassed, touched the back of his head and said, "A new friend."

"Oh~" Mrs. Wolfhard smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

It was obvious that something was wrong. Asking too much would make people uncomfortable. Young people don't like being questioned about their personal matters by their elders. She was aware of this.

But that person looks too nervous. Is she that scary?

Su Mang was more than nervous, she was so frightened that she could hardly stand.

The moment she saw Finn, her ears started to ring and her heartbeat was so frightened that it seemed to jump out of her throat. She wanted to run away.

But the man with her had already gone forward, and she had no choice and no room to retreat.

I had no choice but to move forward.
