Chapter 30: Pinky Promise

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

FeiFei’er: [Horror emoji. Wen Ruan wants to be in the top three in school???]

Feifei’er: [From the bottom six to the top three? With that IQ, it’s already a miracle that she isn’t in the last place. Gosh, this has to be the biggest joke of the year!]

I am Wanwan: [Fei’er, don’t laugh at Ruanruan, she might just be able to make it.]

Feifei’er: [Stop speaking up for her. I’m on the second floor of the restaurant right now. I’ll come over to take a look at how shameless she can be!]

…

Over at their table.

Liu Shuying smiled at Wen Ruan. “Ruanruan, Auntie knows that you want to improve but there’s no need to boast. It is not a good habit.”

Wen Jinzhang frowned and looked at Wen Ruan seriously. “Ruanruan, your Auntie is right. Don’t make a promise you cannot keep!”

“Yeah, Ruanruan, you were in the bottom six in the last test. If you can get into the top three this time, that would be legendary,” Ye Wanwan said with disdain.

Wanwan ignored Liu Shuying and Ye Wanwan. She looked up innocently at her father. “Dad, just believe in Ruanruan one more time, okay?”

The bright lights of the restaurant cast a glow on her fair little face. Her long lashes moved up and down like the wings of a butterfly. Her eyes were clear, and a little red, as though she was upset because Wen Jinzhang refused to believe her.

Wen Jinzhang could not remember when was the last time Wen Ruan acted coquettishly in front of him.

After this lass grew up, she was untamable and kept going against him. She would only talk to him nicely after she had committed a huge mistake in school.

He knew that she was talking big and that he had to reprimand her over it. But when she looked at him with those limpid eyes, his heart could not help but soften. In the end, he did not say anything harsh to her.

He lifted his big hand and patted her head. “If you can improve by 100 places, I will promise you anything.”

“Really?” Wen Ruan’s huge eyes were gleaming with joy. She reached her hand out to hold her father’s and her dimples appeared faintly, making her look cute. “Dad, pinky promise.”

Liu Shuying and Ye Wanwan watched with unhappy expressions on their faces as Wen Ruan acted coquettishly.

Wen Jinzhang went along with Wen Ruan and gave her a pinky promise.

Wen Ruan did not have the mood to have supper with them. She left despite Wen Jinzhang’s efforts to make her stay.

As she reached the entrance of the restaurant, She felt a gaze on her. She turned back and saw Ling Fei’er, looking at her with a sarcastic smile standing behind the cashier counter.

Wen Ruan scoffed and left.

Wen Jinzhang was still immersed in the joy that his daughter seemed to have grown more sensible. Liu Shuying walked to Wen Jinzhang’s back and gave him a shoulder massage. “I saw Ruanruan looking at a limited edition male’s watch in a magazine previously. I reckoned she wanted to give it to a male student but it was too expensive so I didn’t get it for her. She has been ignoring me recently. I think she’s probably angry at me because of that.”

Wen Jinzhang was usually busy with work. Wen Ruan was not close to him in the past. Most of the time, Liu Shuying was the one taking care of her.

When he heard Liu Shuying’s words, Wen Jinzhang frowned. “You mean Ruanruan is dating in school?”

He looked at Ye Wanwan. “Wanwan, do you know about this?”

Ye Wanwan lowered her head, looking as though she did not dare to speak. “Uncle Wen, I… I don’t know anything.”

Liu Shuying told Wen Jinzhang gently. “There’s no point asking Wanwan. You know very well what Ruanruan is like. If Wanwan said anything, Ruanruan would never let her off. How about this, we can go to the school together to find out after this monthly test is over.”

Liu Shuying knew Wen Ruan’s grades very well. Getting into the top three of the cohort? Fat chance! Even improving by 10 places was impossible!

But the recent change in Wen Ruan’s attitude towards Wen Jinzhang made her a little worried.

She would never let Wen Ruan become the stumbling block for her to enter the Wen Family. She had to let Wen Jinzhang lose all faith in his airhead daughter!
