Holly’s personality has been influenced by Rose Sawyer to so extent, and in certain respects, the mother and daughter are truly cut from the sa mold.
Rose Sawyer gives off a sense of elegance and gentleness, yet her way of doing things is sowhat impetuous.
"Tsk."
Holly rolled her eyes at Leo Grant, then pulled his hand and headed outside.
The relationship between her and Rose Sawyer wasn’t bad, but they seldom contacted each other, rarely called, and rarely sent ssages.
Neither of them felt it was necessary.
Important matters would be communicated, while less important ones were dealt with individually.
"Brother, I want ice cream."
Holly tugged Leo Grant’s hand and headed across the street, her eyes shining with excitent.
There was an ice cream shop across the street, and Holly’s eyes lit up when she saw it.
She always felt that eating ice cream in winter was better than in sumr, and she preferred eating ice cream in the winter.
Leo Grant reminded her: "It’s cold."
"But I want to eat it."
Holly blinked, looking pitiful as she spoke.
She just wanted it, without any reason.
"We can eat as much as we want after winter, alright?"
Leo Grant gently tousled Holly’s hair, speaking softly, his tone extrely tender.
Eating cold stuff isn’t good in winter, yet the little girl was determined to eat it and Leo Grant felt quite helpless.
"I don’t want to."
Holly turned her head away and said with a hint of arrogance.
No, she just wanted it now.
"If you won’t buy it for , I’ll buy it myself."
Holly let go of Leo Grant’s hand and walked across the street on her own without looking back at him.
Looking puffed with anger.
"Alright, alright, I’ll buy it for you."
Leo Grant sighed, sped up to catch Holly, extending his hand to hold her cold little hand.
The little girl was already angry, of course he had to buy it, to soothe her.
"Okay then."
Holly smiled brightly, her face imdiately lighting up with a smile.
Hmm, she wasn’t really angry, just wanted to act spoiled and throw a little tantrum.
She knew Leo Grant would fall for it; whenever she got upset, Leo Grant couldn’t resist, always going along with her wishes.
"You’re really wrapped around her finger."
Leo Grant sighed, gazing at Holly with a face full of helplessness.
What could he do?
Whenever the little girl got upset, his heart would soften completely, leaving him with no solution.
"Brother is the best to ."
Holly looked up at Leo Grant and smiled, the joy on her face appeared particularly vibrant.
Leo Grant was truly very, very good to her.
The Chinese language is vast and profound, filled with great words, yet she couldn’t co up with any adjectives.
"Of course I must be good to you, silly."
Leo Grant’s palm covered Holly’s head, his voice indulgent and tender.
Holly was his treasure, who else would he treat well if not Holly?
With the ice cream in hand, Holly’s smile beca even more radiant, stunningly beautiful.
"Brother, do you want a bite?"
Holly held the ice cream up to Leo Grant’s face, asking symbolically.
Leo Grant shook his head.
While eating ice cream, Holly’s smile was particularly bright at the corners of her mouth.
"Holly."
Leo Grant called out to Holly.
Holly looked up quizzically, and Leo Grant’s kiss landed, his cold lips pressing firmly against Holly’s lips.
"Sweet, I love the vanilla flavor."
In a short mont, Leo Grant stood up straight, his lip curved slightly, his eyes filled with a particularly strong smile.
He suddenly found the vanilla ice cream very tasty, indeed the taste was quite good.
"You ate my tofu."
Holly pouted, glaring at Leo Grant discontentedly.
And he said he wouldn’t eat, really.
"If it’s good then let’s buy another."
Holly turned around wanting to buy more ice cream.
"No need."
Leo Grant held Holly back, shaking his head as he spoke.
"I like eating what you’ve had."
Leo Grant added another sentence, with amusent flickering in his gaze.
The ice cream at the corner of the little girl’s lips was the sweetest.
Holly: "..."
Really.
"Wait for here, I’ll be back in a while."
Leo Grant seed to suddenly notice sothing, he patted Holly’s head and spoke softly.
Holly nodded, and Leo Grant left.
Holly stood there eating ice cream, waiting for Leo Grant, the wind wasn’t too cold.
"Sister, you’re also in Arkenfall?"
Suddenly, two girls ran up to Holly, looking at her in surprise, with an undeniable happiness in their eyes.
"You’re skipping class?"
Holly recognized the two girls in front of her and started to ask slowly.
These two girls were Claire Miller and Anna Bennett, previously those who requested to take pictures of Holly and Leo Grant in a mutton hotpot shop in Bexley.
Didn’t expect to et in Arkenfall, but weren’t these two girls in high school? It’s not winter break yet, nor any holiday break.
"We’re here to play."
Claire Miller suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, scratching her head as she spoke.
Had she known earlier, she wouldn’t have greeted Holly, it was a bit awkward.
"But it’s not vacation ti, nor is it the weekend."
Holly reminded them, logically these two girls shouldn’t be here.
"We ca to see the snow, heard it snowed in Arkenfall, so we took leave to co."
Anna Bennett said bashfully, Bexley had never had snow; they had a kind of obsession with snow, really wanting to see it once.
Heard it snowed in Arkenfall, the two of them told a little fib to get leave and co to Arkenfall to see snow, while taking a set of photos.
"It’s not worth taking leave just to see the snow, your current task is to study well, to get into a school in Arkenfall or another northern school; seeing snow won’t be a difficult matter then."
Holly softly furrowed her brow, speaking slowly, throwing her finished ice cream wrapper into the trash bin.
Life is long, studying may not be the only path, but it’s a shortcut.
So when at the age ant for studying, one should study well so as not to regret it in the future.
"We know, but we couldn’t resist."
Claire Miller and Anna Bennett exchanged a glance, speaking in unison, with a hint of guilt in their eyes, yet also so determination.
They knew it wasn’t good, but couldn’t resist doing it, just to earnestly experience a snowfall.
Those who’ve never seen snow have an unusual obsession with it, perhaps it’s rebelliousness of youth, leading them impulsively here.
Despite so fears, they still ca resolutely.
"Study well."
Holly felt a bit bored standing and yawned.
Hmm, she wasn’t particularly fond of studying, but she still completed her education, because she felt those things were indispensable.
Having academic qualifications offers a bit more confidence in society.
