Although the group of those rich ladies may not truly be convinced, they could only pretend to clap for me. Because none of them but me can complete this performance.
As for me, I had not expected that I could make it, so I was full of sense of achievement in my heart.
Although those wives were very jealous of me, the fathers started to change their original opinions upon me, some men even gave me their calling cards initially and asked my job, wondering why I have such a good memory.
Though I just chatted with one of those men, Leon still followed us. After the man left me, he warned me immediately not to randomly chat with those men, for he disliking me chatting with other people.
It was so interesting that he could make sweet interactions with Nan Lin everyday, ignoring my feelings, but at the same time, he disliked me making normal conversation with other people?
“Would you keep doing the things that I dislike you doing?” I asked him slightly.
“Don’t talk that kind of nonsense to me.”
“You never care if I like when you do your things. So why should I ask if you like when I do my things? Moreover, I was just chatting with them, making some new friends, nothing else was involved, why are you so autocratic?”
“You don’t need to know them, it is enough for you to just know me. If you have any problems, I can solve them, you don’t need to expand your own social relationship.” Leon still said with self-confidence.
I really had no mood to criticize his unreasonable words.
He could solve my problems? Then how would he solve my problems when he stay with other woman, leaving me alone dejected? And how would he solve my problems when he pick on me?
There were other activities next, and this time came the real Parent-child activity. The activity involved a task which needed both parents and child to complete, and there were other competitions in the procession. The specific rule was that a child picks up a balloon and puts it between the heads of his father and mother, then his parents clip the balloon up to send it to another place, and then the child will run there to pick the balloon. In limited time, the family which delivers the most balloons wins, and will be evaluated as the family with the most tacit.
Although it looked easy , it was difficult to do it practically. First of all, the balloon was too light, and was very slippery, hence easy to fall. So the parents’ heads must use proper strength to clip up the balloon in order not to make it fall. But they still couldn’t make too much strength, or the balloon would blast. Besides, the parents must be united in their steps, and couldn’t be discordant with each other, or they would lose the game.
As Leon had the height of over 185 cm, and I had the height of 163 cm, our large gap of height also increased the degree of the difficulty of the game. It was impossible for me to lift my foot to adapt his height, for it’s great difficulty for me, so he just had to bend over to adapt my height.
“Well, let’s make a trial, and see how far is the distance between our bodies and foot when we clip the balloon the steadiest. Then we will walk in this distance strictly, so that the balloon is not easy to fall. Then the problem is our strength, I will just lower my head and use no strength, and you control the strength, so as to avoid coordinating and controlling the balloon harder if we use our strength at the same time.”Leon made this plan and said to me.
His arrangement was very rational, so we made the trial just as what he said.
Finally, at the end of the game, we won the first place again, which really caught everyone’s attention, so Alex could not be happier as if we really had won a champion of the Olympic Games.
The next was the time for every family to make their interactions. And at last , the leaders of the kindergarten made arrangements to invite all the parents to dine together.
It seemed rare to hear a school invite the parents to have dinner, but from another perspective, those advanced private kindergartens were naturally more different than those normal schools. Since each of those parents , who could be counted as the school’s clients, would pay their children high tuition fees, it could not be more normal for the school to pay a meal for their clients.
After the meal, the activity ended perfectly. And every parent was sent a memento.
But Leon was not intended to go home or go to the company, he instead took me and Alex straightly to the amusement park.
Naturally, Alex was very happy about that, because it was a rare time for our family to be together to enjoy ourselves, since Leon and I were too busy to stay with him.
I enjoyed this kind of feeling, because this had always been an emotion that I lost. Every time when I was very happy, I felt sad at the same time. Because I knew that more wonderful were those things, more transiently would they stay . And Leon would leave me at any time, for he had a more important person than me and all he wanted was just Alex.
After playing for a while and we were both tired, me and Leon went to the restaurant nearby the amusement area of children to have a rest. Alex was still full of energy and he kept playing, while Alex and I sat by the restaurant’s window , drinking iced juice.
It was no doubt that Leon was the focus of the restaurant because of his handsome looking and outstanding temperament.
I could always feel the jealous sight of other women when I sat opposite him.
The eyes of Leon stayed on Alex who were playing not far from us, and he hardly saw me although I sat opposite him.
As what he had said, the most important identity of mine was just the biological mother of Alex. And there would be no value of me, even worthless at all, if I lose this identity.
“Why do you keep staring at me? Haven’t you seen any handsome men?”Leon suddenly asked me.
I turned my face against him at once. I admitted that I was indeed staring at him a few minutes ago, but couldn’t I see him? Was it not normal to see other people?
“If you don’t see me, how could you know I am staring at you? Indeed I haven’t met any handsome men, but I have seen quite a lot of narcissism.”I slowly answered.
“Even being a narcissist needs one to have this ability, and I no doubt just have this ability, so it is very normal for me to be narcissistic.”
I sniffed at his words.
“I know you women like to see handsome men, and my intention is not stopping you looking at me. I am only worried that you will be in love with me if you look at me for too long, which certainly will cause you much trouble.”Leon also said to me slowly.
“Mr. Hua, even being a narcissist should pay attention to the limit. Saying such words like worrying other people be in love with you, although you are not shamed of, I am ashamed after hearing this.”I taunted.
“So what you mean is that you will not love me?” Leon asked me very seriously.
My heart actually beat once after hearing what he said, but I managed to be calm and said,”Of course not.”
Leon put down the bottle of juice, moved his long legs to change his pose, and stared at me with great interests,” Why not? I’m not handsome enough? Or am I lack of attraction to you?”
I already had an answer in my head, I intended to say none of these reasons were correct, it’s just because you love someone else and I can’t love you.
But of course I couldn’t just say my answer, which was too embarrassing.
“No reason. Just like loving a person needs no reason, not loving a person also needs no reason, right?”I made a rhetorical question.
Leon nodded as if thinking of something,” What you said makes some sense, but still a fallacy. Now that the deadline is closer and closer, have you thought about how to make breakthrough of your sales tasks?”
I was about to mention this thing to him, so it was much better that he could initially said this to me.
“Yes.”I answered affirmatively.
There was a twinkle in his eyes, and he was a little surprised after hearing my answer,” So, what are you going to do?”
“Our business in Hai City is nearly saturated and hard to make any breakthrough no matter how hard we try, so I want to go to Yang City to develop a new project.”
