Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 2669: Chapter 2678: Why Did You Suddenly Return to China?

”Sister Renee, after being abroad for so long, what made you suddenly think of coming back to the country? Is there someone here you can’t bear to be apart from?” The speaker was someone who used to get along well with Adam Sinclair, and he was well aware of how much Adam used to like Renee, so he blurted it out while they were eating.

Renee jokingly chided him, ”Why, are you not welcoming me back?”

The man waved his hand, sneaking a glance at Adam, who was eating with his head down, and said, ”No, no, how could I not welcome Sister Renee? As soon as Sister Renee called me, I came running, didn’t even mind my Old Man at home. Of course, you’re welcome.”

Renee noticed his subtle action, propping her chin up with one hand, her elegant and delicate face carrying a slightly captivating smile as she chuckled, ”I’m teasing you, and you actually took it seriously. You’re really easy to tease~”

”Oh, oh, why is someone so nervous~”

”There’s something going on.”

”Looks like some people just can’t resist.”

The group joined in the playful banter.

The man got anxious and quickly explained, ”Don’t make a fuss, that’s not what I meant. I was just curious, purely curious. Aren’t you curious?”

Everyone else was curious about why the former goddess suddenly returned home, and they all looked at Renee, clearly waiting for her response.

Renee saw the confusion in everyone’s eyes and smiled gently, her brows soft like peach blossoms blooming in spring, elegant yet alluring, ”Come on, as you said, I haven’t been back in a long time. After staying abroad for so long, I still think Country W is the best, so I came back. How about that, Junior, are you satisfied with my answer?”

Everyone could tell she was being evasive.

But everyone gave her face and didn’t press further, ”Hahaha, Junior, Sister Renee is asking you, are you satisfied with her answer?”

”Junior~ Oh wow, it really is Junior. Sister Renee went to the same high school as you, but she was top of the class back then, while you were at the bottom, weren’t you?”

”Don’t talk nonsense, who was at the bottom of the class? I did that on purpose!” Having his embarrassing school days exposed, the man immediately acted angry to fight back, ”You were no better, and Adam too. Big brother and second brother should not make fun of each other. We were the last three in the class, and you can’t exclude yourself.”

”Don’t drag me and Adam into this, Adam was just slacking off, but later he got into the world-renowned Oxford College for further studies. What about you? You got kicked out before you even graduated from University. If it weren’t for your Old Man dragging you into the army, you would still be an undergraduate.”

”Everyone has different talents; my talent lies in guns, not in pens!”

”Nonsense, bad grades are just bad grades, stop making excuses.”

”Damn it, do you want to fight?”

”Bring it on, I haven’t had a fight in ages. Come on, let’s have a warm-up today since we’re all gathered here.”

The conversation gradually shifted towards Adam, and then it turned into a drinking contest...

Adam had no intention of joining in from start to finish, even when the conversation turned to him, he remained calm, eating his food leisurely, his relaxed and noble demeanor clashing with the lively atmosphere.

”Adam, come, have a drink! You brat, after I helped you out just now, you aren’t even going to back me up, so you must drink this.” The ones who were tipsy had faces flushed red, and among them was the person who asked why Renee suddenly returned. He ran over, draped his arm over Adam’s shoulders, and urged him to drink.
