“Hmm…”
It was when Amanda just wanted to decline his invitation as she felt uncomfortable accompanying him
in public.
“Just promise my daddy. He has even healed your injury and let you stay with us.” Nina appeared from
nowhere at this moment.
Joan looked at her and seemed to be waiting for her answer.
After Nina had said that, it was difficult for her to decline as it would be impolite. She could not be
unconcerned about it as he had indeed helped her before.
She looked at Nina. ‘Is this little kid’s brain of an adult?’
‘Is she a kid?’
She looked similar to her brother who was like a little adult since young.
“Say yes. Won’t you really even help my daddy with that?” Nina continued saying.
Amanda was speechless.
“I’m not saying no…”
“Then you mean yes.”
Nina pulled Joan happily before Amanda could finish speaking, “Daddy, daddy, she said yes.”
Joan knew that Amanda was not promising him, but he did not give her a chance to decline, “Thank
you.”
Amanda was speechless.
She agreed with both of them.
“Alright.” She was forced to agree.
It was not that she wanted to decline Joan as she would help him with other things. However, she was
going to accompany him to attend a dinner. This would make people easily misunderstand their
relationship when she was beside him in public.
“Yeah, I’m so happy.” Nina jumped cheerfully and yelled, “Sally, Sally, hurry up and bring two basins.”
Amanda felt that she was overjoyed, “Nina, why do you need two basins?”
Nina laughed, “We didn’t have fun out today and we even missed the Water Festival. It’s too bad, so
you have to play with me.”
Sally took two small plastic basins. Nina dropped one on the floor and held the other in her hand. She
filled half of the basin with water from the pool, “Ready…Go…”
There was a splash.
As she just said, a basin of water was splashed towards Amanda and Amanda’s clothes were instantly
wet.
Amanda was speechless.
Joan was speechless as well.
Both of them thought in their minds at the same time. ‘Is this kid serious?’
“Come and splash me. Come and splash me.” Nina started filling up the basin with water again.
Meanwhile, she kept giving Joan a wink to join in.
Joan stood still in place, “Nina, are your eyes uncomfortable?”
Why was she winking?
Nina was speechless.
She rolled her eyes as her dad was really clumsy.
She had come out with so many ideas just to help him marry a wife. However, he was stupid enough to
ask her if her eyes were uncomfortable.
She splashed a basin of water onto Joan and thought in her mind. ‘You better wake up!’
Both Amanda and Joan got wet while Nina was laughing over there joyfully.
Amanda was speechless.
Joan was speechless too.
Both of them felt that this kid’s laughter was so irritating at the same time.
Then, they went to get the basin on the floor. They looked up at each other as their hands rested on the
basin at the same moment.
Both of them wanted to give in. So, they withdrew their hands at the same time.
Nina was speechless.
Her daddy was really stupid.
She could not help him even she had created so many opportunities for him.
Nina laughed, “Look at the way you guys are drenched.”
Amanda was speechless.
This kid learnt quite many words but her laughter was really irritating.
“Teach her a lesson.” Joan handed the basin to Amanda.
She looked at Joan and hesitated for two seconds. Then, she reached out and take the basin, “I will
take revenge for you.”
After taking over the basin, she filled the basin with water and splashed at Nina. Immediately, Nina’s
body was soaked through as well.
Nina was speechless.
“Wait for it.” Nina filled up the basin with water and splashed it again.
Amanda did not stop splashing too. Then, both of them splashed at each other.
Joan who was standing at the side also got wet.
Soon, he went into the house and took a basin to join them.
Haha…
Ah…
Ew…
It was like the actual Water Festival. The three of them were drenched.
Nina was bullied by them, so she conceded, “Don’t play anymore. Stop…”
“No!” Amanda continued splashing at her.
Nina was speechless.
In the end, she ran away as she could not cope with them.
Amanda smiled while looking at her back.
At this moment, she did not have any worries in her mind and was laughing from the bottom of her
heart.
Such a smile was the same as Joan had seen her smile for the first time. He was mesmerized by her
blissful smile.
“This kid is just a smart cookie.” Amanda laughed helplessly.
Joan regained his sense when he heard Amanda speaking, “She is a…”
Before he could utter the words “clever kid”, he vaguely noticed Amanda’s delicate body and skin
through her wet clothes.
She exposed her collarbone and there were crystal water droplets on it. She looked simply alluring.
He turned his head away quickly as his ears became hot.
Amanda realized what was going on. She lowered her head and noticed her own look now.
She frowned and dropped the basin onto the ground. She put her hands on her chest while she was so
embarrassed at the moment.
Was she in this look when she was splashing just now?
Joan went inside and got a bath towel. He handed it to her as he looked away.
Amanda took the bath towel and draped it around her body. She lowered her eyes and said, “Thank
you.”
Joan said unnaturally, “Go in and take a shower.”
Both of them did not look at each other while speaking.
Amanda replied “alright” softly. Then, she turned around and went into the house.
Joan just stood still in place and stared at Amanda’s back.
Amanda’s pace was getting even faster. She seemed to feel somebody gazing at her.
However, she did not dare to turn back.
