Chapter 364: Face to Face Questioning
As soon as the four of them entered the room, they were stunned by Mrs. Capet's lion roar. Everyone had different priorities.
Xu Weiwei: It turns out that my grandfather’s full name is Julian, which sounds very fashionable.
Kane: Oh no, grandpa is in trouble.
Mrs. Seaforth: Didn't the maid inform them? Why did they quarrel without telling the child... She is most afraid of mediating the conflict between her parents...
Mrs. Capet had experienced big scenes before. Even when she was caught in this embarrassing scene, she was only panicked for a moment. Then she immediately calmed down, put on a noble and dignified demeanor, and greeted everyone as if nothing had happened.
"You guys are here, what is this...?"
Finn took a step forward, bowed slightly and said, "Hello, ma'am. I'm Finn Wolfhard."
The other person suddenly realized: "Oh, it's the Wolfhard family. I don't go out often, so I didn't recognize it. Actually, we live in the same district..."
"Blame me. I'm the younger one, so I should visit more often."
Mrs. Capet was very satisfied with the sensible and polite young man. She smiled and said, "It's okay. You are students now and you don't have much time. It's the same with Kane and the others. They come less and less since they entered middle school."
Kane lowered his head in shame.
"Grandma, I'm ready."
Xu Weiwei's voice suddenly appeared beside her, and Mrs. Capet was obviously startled. Looking at the person who went out from the side door at some point and came back with bees, the old lady said in shock: "How come you walk without making any sound, you almost scared grandma to death..."
Xu blinked twice with an innocent expression: Okay, next time she comes, she will hang a speaker on her body and play "The Young Lady Has Arrived" on a loop, okay?
The old lady sighed resignedly, pulled up her trouser legs, and forcefully pulled her husband's arm with both hands. She was ready to "transfer the pain" and make him go against her.
Opening her own medical kit, Xu Weiwei expertly disinfected her knees, put on rubber gloves, and used tweezers to pick up the bee...
Three minutes later, the old lady's knees were covered with small white dots, which were the marks left by the bees' stings. Their owner was lying dead in the tray.
Practice makes perfect, and now she is becoming more and more skilled, and her equipment is becoming better and better.
Xu Weiwei took off her gloves. The tail needle had to stay in place for fifteen to twenty minutes to release the poison, and during this time, she happened to see another patient.
Kane turned his head to see Finn's reaction, but Finn remained calm, as if he were a blind person.
Kane bumped into him and wondered, "Why aren't you running? Didn't you see it?"
"I see. Wei'er must have her reasons for doing this. Could she be harming her own grandmother?"
Kane choked. This was not what he thought. Was his friend out of his mind? Why did he sound so... flattering?
The moment this description came out, Kane's heart felt like being struck by lightning.
No way? No way!
Why? When did it start? Where did the opportunity come from?
But if he doesn't like her... this guy has always looked down on people, and he is ruthless to both men and women. When has he ever been so considerate?
But my sister has never had any contact with him, except this morning...
Wait! Kane took a breath and looked at Finn with sharp eyes like a knife: Could this guy be tempted by her beauty? ! ! !
"Brother Finn, come and sit here. I want to remove the bandage on your hand first, okay?" Xu Weiwei patted the empty space next to the sofa.
"Okay." Finn responded. Just as he was about to go over, Kane suddenly grabbed his neck and took him away.
"He's going to the bathroom with me! He'll be back soon!"
Xu Weiwei: ...It's inexplicable. I need to accompany you to go to the toilet in my own home. Boys...
As soon as they got outside the bathroom, Finn frowned and pushed Kane away, "What's wrong with you?"
Unexpectedly, a gust of wind blew next to his ears. Kane put his hands on his ears, imprisoning him between the man and the wall, with a serious expression.
"Tell me the truth, do you like my sister?"
After saying that, Kane carefully observed Finn's expression, afraid of missing any clues.
Finn did not answer immediately, but looked back calmly. After a long silence, he calmly said, "You dragged me here just to ask this?"
"That's right. Don't change the subject. Now answer my question honestly, yes or no." Kane said with a sense of urgency.
Finn straightened his messed-up collar and asked back, "Where do you get your groundless inference from? If you suspect me, you have to provide evidence first, right?"
"You and I have been classmates for fifteen years, from elementary school to now. I know your attitude towards girls very well. You avoid them as if they are infected with some virus. If you really can't avoid them, you will be polite and distant when you speak to them."
"Only Wei'er." Kane paused here, then stared into Finn's eyes and continued:
"You never seem to resist contact with her. Not only do you not resist, you always defend her and speak for her."
"You and Wei'er have talked more than all the other girls since childhood combined. Don't you want to explain?"
Kane spoke very slowly, and he was sorting out his thoughts as he spoke. The more he spoke, the more certain he became of his thoughts.
"You just said it." Finn said. "You are one of the few friends I have had since I was a child. You are different to me, and I naturally have to treat your family differently."
"Hey, don't flatter me! This reason is not enough."
Finn sighed, raised his hands and said, "I can clearly assure you that I am not a pedophile and have no ill intentions towards Selvie. Are you relieved now?"
"As for the different treatments you listed, I don't understand why either..."
Kane was a little stunned. He had never seen his friend like this before.
Finn released his strength and leaned against the wall, his brows furrowed. The emotions in his eyes had never been so clear, making it easy to see his distress and confusion.
"I just don't dislike her. It's easy to talk to her. That's all."
"I think maybe it's because she doesn't like me."
"What?" Kane was stunned.
As soon as he said that guess, Finn's mind seemed to have opened up. He smiled frankly and repeated, "She doesn't like me."
"She had no feelings for me, no expectations, and treated me like an insignificant person. Her attitude was casual. Whether I came or left, no matter what I did, it had no effect on her. Sometimes I could even feel her cursing me in her heart."
"It's this attitude that makes me feel comfortable." Finn said with a pleasant smile.
At this moment, the congested river channel seemed to have opened a gap, and the water rushed down uncontrollably.
