A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 247 The Ghost House Was Haunted Again

He reached out his hand and flicked her forehead. "Keep in mind what I wrote to you first. If you can't remember it, you will be punished to copy it for ten times."

With her forehead in her hands and her nose wrinkled, Essie said, "you know I'm a fool. I'm so stupid, but you deliberately sent so many messages. How could I remember that?"

"Aren't your IQ more than 160? Did you just brag about it? " A sneer cracked his lips. 'how could you remember Hanson's habits so clearly?' He thought.

Essie pouted. She thought to herself, 'what a mean guy! I just told Ivy a few tricks to win Hanson's heart. It's not a big deal. Does he have to be so mean?'

"Hey, freezing guy! If you are not happy with what I said to Ivy in the living room, just say it out. You don't have to put me in an awkward situation."

With his thick eyebrows raised, Zac suddenly pulled her into his arms and imprisoned her. He pinched the tip of her chin with one hand and said, "is asking you to remember my likes and dislikes is to make things difficult for you?"

"You have to let me remember tonight. It's evening now. How can I have extra time? Besides, if I can't remember it, I will be flicked on the forehead. And I will be punished to write them down for ten times. Don't you deliberately make difficulties for me? " She angrily shook off his hand, pouting her lips.

"This is called a small punishment commandment. You should be blamed for what you said. If you don't take it seriously, how can you think clearly?" He said in a mocking tone.

"I'm really smart today," Taking advantage of his unprepared moment, she lifted her foot and stepped hard on his foot, as a revenge. He snorted and lay down on the sofa with her in his arms. "Really?"

"I help Ivy to pursue Hanson in order to make him completely give up hope on me. Is that not what you want?" She quipped slowly, like a pair of soft hands patting the tip of his heart. He bending his mouth, hailed, "so, should I reward you?"

"Forget it. Don't be so petty. It's not funny at all," she said, casting him a glance.

Zac raised his eyebrows and said, "even so, you must remember the thing I gave you. I will carry out a random examination in the future. And if you make any mistake, you will be punished..." He deliberately choked and lowered his head to put his thin lips close to her ear. "You have to serve me. If you've made a mistake, you'll be punished for one night, and so on."

"Shame on you!" She clenched her fist and beat him on the shoulder.

In the evening, Mary specially ordered the kitchen to cook Walt's favorite roast doves and many other dishes, because he had to bring "little sun" back to see her.

"I really want to see what the little sun looks like. Walt has missed her for a long time. Is she beautiful like a fairy or a rosy glow in his painting?" Ivy was very curious about it.

"Walt have seen all kinds of girls. The girl who can capture his passion must be very excellent." Daisy smiled and said.

Zac pulled Essie into his arms. "No matter how great my brother's sun is, it can't compare with my wife."

"Don't talk big. Walt and his little sun will be the protagonists. We have to keep a low profile all the supporting roles, and we can't steal the light from the protagonists." Said Essie.

"Yes, you're right. It's not easy for Walt to take a fancy to a woman, so we must help him." Said Ivy smilingly.

Being silent, Mary enjoyed their conversation. She glanced at Essie from time to time. Mary thought Essie was pretending to be a good girl. If Essie made any trouble, Mary would teach her a lesson.

At six o'clock p.m., Walt finally entered the house with a beautiful woman.

The girl was really beautiful, with white skin, big eyes, high nose and small mouth, just like a Barbie doll.

"She's Nita." After introducing the people around him, Walt introduced his family to her.

"Future sister-in-law, I finally see you." Ivy said with a smile.

Essie secretly looked at Nita up and down. Nita was wearing famous brands from top to bottom, such as Gucci skirt, Burberry shoes, Hermes handbag and the Cartier jewelry, which were like a mobile luxury store. It seemed that the girl was a gold digger. A gold digger was the best choice to marry into a rich family.

Mary chatted with Nita for a while and then asked her to have dinner. After that, all of them went to the garden to enjoy the moon. The love of purple heart in Essie's hand was rolling in Nita's eyes from time to time. As expected, the lady of a rich family was extraordinary. Her diamond ring was even bigger than a pigeon egg. If only she could marry a rich man.

"Nita, are you a plane model?" Before dinner, Ivy overheard the conversation between Mary and Nita.

Nita nodded her head and replied, "yes. I just signed up for the beauty contest of Miss Dragon City. Walt is one of the judges." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Beauty contest?" "Do you have to stand in public with bikini?" Ivy asked, slightly taken aback.

"Yes, it's also a indispensable part of the beauty contest." Said Nita.

"No way!" "You're not going to be my sister-in-law if you wear a swimsuit in public." She said, shaking her hands.

Nita was shocked. It was said that there were many rules in the rich. It was true.

"Nita, you'd better not take part in the beauty contest." Said Mary lightly.

"Okay." Nita nodded. Her only purpose of joining beauty contest was to marry a man from a wealthy family, but she didn't expect that she had offended the taboo here.

Walt didn't say anything. He had hired her to help him, so he didn't have a say in her business.

Zac looked at Nita with a sharp light flashing in his eyes. The moment Nita entered the door, his fondness for her had dropped to the worse. How could such a material girl make elder brother who had seen countless girls think of her day and night? Either he was out of his mind, or his eyes were just wandering.

"Honey, the Epiphyllum is about to bloom. Let's look at it." He took the hand of Essie, and she nodded. They walked out of the pavilion together.

"Future sister-in-law is pretty. I see. This is the type of girl my brother likes." Walking on a quiet bamboo path, Essie said.

"I can seize a handful of women like her! They are just breathless in appearance." There was a usual cynical smile on the corners of Zac's mouth.

"Are you suggesting that you are trying to challenge Walt? He would fight back if he heard you." A playful smile appeared on Essie's face.

Zac put his arm around her shoulder and said, "don't be afraid. You are a clear water beauty who will never be tired of looking at."

"As the old saying goes, everyone takes his own eyes. People have different choices when selecting a friend. The one you like may be not attractive to others. As for our brother, he loves dolls like Nita." said Essie with smile.

Zac leaned over and said in a low voice. "I bet you. My brother asked Nita to get rid of Mommy."

Essie was shocked and asked, "really?"

With his charming eyes looking deep in the night, Zac said, "as far as I know about him, it's possible for him to be interested in a material girl like her for a while and have fun with her. However, it is impossible for him to have been secretly in love with her for years." He said in a very positive tone. It was said that twin brothers always have a crush on each other. But Essie thought that maybe Zac knew his brother very well. So she asked, "how about his little sun? Why didn't he take her home? "

"Maybe he has not done with her yet." Zac shrugged. Just like him, his elder brother was also late, but others had already beaten him up.

"Is there anyone in the world that Mr. Walt can't deal with?" Essie said smilingly.

"I do have a trouble in dealing with a woman." Said Zac, touching her chin.

"You are right. You are handsome and extremely rich. But the woman you want to get close to doesn't buy it. What will you do?" She giggled, got rid of his arms and escaped quickly.

He quickly caught up with her and took her in his arms. "It doesn't matter. I will conquer her slowly."

"No way. I won't change my mind even if you have money and power." Essie wrapped her arms around his neck and mischievously kicked his legs in midair.

At this moment, a breeze was blowing above the bamboo forest, and the sound of whining was faintly coming from the wind, shrill and horrible, which sounded creepy.

Essie couldn't help shivering, and a chill rose from her back, as his collar was gripped by her little hands.

"Ice guy, did you hear something?"

Zac said calmly. Of course he heard that. Living in the Rong's house since childhood, this kind of voice was quite familiar to him. He was not afraid of anyone, and did not pay attention to the people like ghosts, not to mention that he never believed in the so-called ghosts. It was just superstition.

"It should be the sound of wind blowing the bamboo tip."

"It didn't come from above. It seemed from somewhere." She pointed at the direction of the ghost house.

"Don't be afraid. I'm here." He tightened his grip on her arm, and she buried her head into his chest to avoid looking into the dark forest again. Soon, they walked out of the bamboo forest and went to the garden which was planted Epiphyllum.

"Put me down." She took two deep breaths.

Zac put her down and sat with her on the chair in front of the Epiphyllum.

The Epiphyllum had already bloomed, and the white flowers were gorgeous.

But the crying sound of the bamboo grove took her attention away.

"Ice guy, is there really a ghost in that yard?"

"Little fool, there are no ghosts in this world, only people have ghosts in their hearts." Said Zac as he put his arm around her shoulders.

"I heard that the ghost's real body was the brain waves. After a person died, the brain waves floated in the air. If someone had the same frequency with it, you could see it." Said Essie seriously.

"Honey, you have read too many miraculous novels." Zac touched her head with a smile. Her reaction was childish. She pouted with dissatisfaction. "The sound of human cry is different from that of the wind blowing on the bamboo tip. I can tell that what I heard just now is exactly a cry."

"How about this? Some years later, when our ancestors died, I will tear this ghost yard down and let you see if there is a ghost in it?" Zac said with a smile.

"You must be kidding me." Essie rolled her eyes at him. She didn't believe that this guy had lived in Rong Mansion for more than twenty years and couldn't tell the difference between crying and bamboo tip. Maybe he didn't want to tell her and deliberately played odds with her.
