Charlie frowned when he heard the first part of her sentence, and when he heard the last part, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He rested one arm on the couch behind her, reached over toward her with his other hand, took her hand directly, and put the rest of her cookie in his mouth naturally, not caring about the gazes of others.
Wendy's fingertips were licked by him, all wet.
She wiped her finger on the food cloth and whispered to Charlie, "Charlie, tell me honestly, how many girls have you messed with before?"
"Didn't you know?" Charlie narrowed his eyes and said in an honest tone.
Before he met her, he had never even had a woman by his side, even Madge, his ex-fiancee, who was picked by his family. Since he met her, he was interested in her only and could not get enough of her.
Wendy gazed at Tilly through the crowd and told Charlie directly, "Madge's cousin is interested in you!"
Tilly was not only interested in Charlie, but also straightforwardly declared that she liked him.
"Me?" Charlie asked in surprise.
"You don't know?" Wendy squinted her eyes and asked.
"Well." Charlie frowned and fell into deep thought. When Wendy mentioned it like this, something vaguely came to his mind. He thought for a while and said, "Probably!"
"..." Wendy's eyes widened.
Charlie curled his lips and looked at her with a sly look. He pinched her chin deliberately. "I have some impression on her. She did come and confess to me, but I didn't take it seriously. At that time she had not yet graduated from high school, she was simply a child. I just take her as a sister!"
"Are you sure?" Wendy asked doubtfully.
"One hundred percent." Charlie looked so sure and didn't avoid her gaze at all.
Wendy pulled his hand off her chin, poked his thick palm with her nails, and said jealously, "But she is always thinking about you. As soon as you left just now, she immediately came to show off to me..."
Charlie grabbed her hand and held it tightly. "If Telly comes to you again, don't talk to her!"
"Her name is Tilly..." After hearing that, Wendy didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Just now, Madge's cousin briefly introduced herself.
"Is it?" Charlie frowned, twitched his lips, and said, "I don't remember."
"..." Wendy shook her head helplessly.
Alright, she forgave him, for now!
He couldn't even remember Tilly's name correctly, so he really did not pay any attention to Tilly at all. Besides, when Tilly came up to say hello, he didn't seem to remember who it was until Tilly herself reminded him.
Kim had just recovered from a serious illness, and his body was still recovering. He could not entertain guests for too long, so the banquet was not held for a long time. After two hours, it was over, and the guests left the hotel one after another.
After saying goodbye to Kim, Charlie walked down the stairs, with one hand holding Wendy's hand, and the other holding the hem of her dress.
As they stood on the side of the road, there was a crisp sound of high heels behind them, and the sound of the puffy skirt flapping up and down with the footsteps. Tilly caught up from behind to say goodbye, "Bye, Charlie!"
