456 Chapter 455 of “Quickly Traveling [Jade Body Exposed]”
byCarnivorous Cinderella’s niece
When Li Xin came out, the faces of the countess and Margaret changed.
Andre looked her up and down, his light gray eyes filled with scrutiny.Li Xin was not nervous, but smiled at him naturally.
After a long time, he finally nodded and expressed satisfaction:
“Not bad.”
In fact, you can see his taste from his actions.Every movement he makes has a natural elegance. It would have been impossible to achieve such naturalness without strict training from a young age or someone with a system like Li Xin.
She concluded that her uncle’s identity was not simple.
Margaret looked at her blond hair with some jealousy. No, she would not admit it. Such a beautiful color was simply a waste for Cynthia. She made that skirt look vulgar.
But in fact, she is more noble and elegant than both of them.
After a few people took their seats, the countess tried to divert Andre’s attention:
“Dear Andre, maybe we should hold a ball to celebrate you. If you are going to stay here for a long time, you should get to know the local gentlemen.”
The countess had dressed up carefully today, but that could not hide the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and the droopy corners of her mouth. She was really not young anymore.
Andre was noncommittal, but Li Xin obviously saw the patient dissatisfaction in his eyes.
The countess had never seen the world. When she was a baroness, she was not in London, so she didn’t know that for people like Andre, she didn’t care about friendship with those squires.
“Maybe,”
He nodded to the Countess;
“However, I need to talk to Cynthia alone now. Maybe you would like to go for a walk in the yard with Miss Wilson.”
Andre was so straightforward and arrogant that he didn’t regard himself as an outsider, but it had to be said that Li Xin felt inexplicably happy when she saw the mother and daughter holding back their angry expressions.
His closeness to several people is evident from their names.
The countess and Margaret finally left, and it might be more convincing if their livid faces were ignored.Li Xin was taken to Earl Wilson’s study by Andre, and she had never been there since his death.
However, the original person still had a vague sense of familiarity with this place. She looked at the neatly arranged books, and the image of the original person lying on Wilson’s lap, listening to her father read aloud, appeared in her mind.
Unknowingly, my eyes turned red.
When Andre turned back, he saw the nostalgia and sadness on her face. He thought about it but still did not interrupt Li Xin.
“My father always told me to be brave, confident and strong,”
She took out a book and touched the rough cover. Her slender shoulders made her look very fragile.She turned her face sideways, her slightly curly blond hair falling on her ears:
“But he eventually left me just like my mother.”
As she spoke, tears filled her eyes.
Andre is not a comforting person. He knows what he should say now, but those words sound harsh and may hit this poor girl:
“I think he would be happy to be reunited with your mother.”
From Wilson’s letter, Andre also knew his deep love for his forgotten wife.He married back his current wife, just hoping that Cynthia could have a mother and sister.
But it seems that it was counterproductive.
After hearing his words, Li Xin smiled slightly with relief.It was like a rainbow flashing behind the dark clouds, making her whole body shine.
She walked over slowly, leaned down, fell on his knees admiringly and sincerely, and looked at him seriously with her violet eyes:
“Thank you for coming back.”
