Chen Jingyuan glanced over the two of them, took a seat on the single sofa beside them, and asked Josie with a composed face, "What book are you reading?"
This question caused quite a stir.
It completely confused Liang Weining.
For the boy's reaction was as if he had transgressed a sacred law, showing nervousness, stammering, unable to spit out a complete sentence for quite some time.
"It's a comic book, a birthday gift I gave to Josie," she chimed in just in time.
As the words fell.
The man leisurely turned his gaze toward her.
Was Mr. Chen about to judge them one by one?
She had almost forgotten.
Josie was young, still immature in distinguishing between human nature and morality; some comics should not be read casually, as they could easily distort one's psychology.
Liang Weining thought the boss was worried about this.
So, she explained, "It's a traditional-style comic that can help Josie understand China's ancient history."
She hadn't lied.
