Chapter 201 - It's Awkward

Actually, he was quite puzzled why Janessa invited him to participate in this activity. After all, they two were not so familiar. They might sometimes have fun, but they would not invite each other to join the family dinner or to be with old friends.

However, Janessa used Armando's phone to call and said, "Last time, we had fun in the guest house."

Hearing that, Randy thought of the night when they played Truth Or Dare after the electricity was cut off. He actually missed it a little and nodded in agreement, "Alright."

Janessa took a sip of milk tea and asked Randy, "Why didn't you bring your team?"

"Didn't you just invite me?" Randy felt that Janessa's question was strange.

Janessa fell silent, as if she was pondering if she had missed the keyword on the phone.

Randy looked at her.

Suddenly, Randy understood, "What? I thought I was different. I..."

It seemed to be a great shock for Randy.

Damn it. In their mind, he was the same as his group of players whose name was not known. Damn, wasn't he the special one?

When the elevator came up, Ferne frowned and walked in with a high-grade portable wine chest in his hand. As Ferne came in, he complained, "What the hell is this place? A cave? The hall is so spacious for playing basketball? And this decor... Who designed it?"

Sure enough, the people who ran the hotel would pay attention to something special. Ferne finished complaining about the decoration design of the entire KTV, including the additional equipment, and then remembered the person behind him. "This is Noah, my..."

He thought for a long time that he didn't know how to introduce Noah. Noah had stretched out his hand to Emily.

Emily was about to reach out when she saw Vincent suddenly stretch out his long arm and shake hands with Noah. Their hands were very big and looked full of strength. As they shook hands, the veins on the back of their hands appeared in an instant. Without waiting for everyone to take a closer look, they had ended up and looked at each other calmly.

Originally, Noah wanted to shake hands with Vincent. However, he was worried that Vincent would ignore him, so he took a detour to greet Emily. Since Emily and him had cooperation, she should not refuse, so...

Vincent naturally guessed Noah's thought, but he did not mind. After all, Noah had spent such a long time in this difficult and enormous task of saving the child, so he was a person worthy of respect.

Randy hurriedly asked Ferne to sit over and say, "God, are you two going to be openly couple now?"

"Open what?" Ferne was a little confused.

"..."

Randy pointed at Noah and then at him. Then, he put his thumbs together and said, "Aren't you a couple?"

"The hell with you," Ferne knocked on Randy's head speechlessly. "I'm married. I have a wife. What are you thinking all day long?"

"What?"

Randy sat down to eat sunflower seeds and looked at Noah. "I didn't think about anything. I just thought that you two looked quite compatible."

Ferne didn't know what to say.

After a while, Janessa stretched out her head and asked, "What is he to you? Sweetie?"

"..."

Ferne remembered that he hadn't finished introducing Noah. Then, he stood up and put his arm around Noah's shoulder. He was four to five centimeters shorter than Noah. To others, his action was like stroking the back of Noah's neck.

"My friend." Ferne said with a smile.

Noah still kept a straight face, but Emily saw that the fist he had just clenched suddenly relaxed a little.

When the elevator came up again, Christy came in with a bag. She was dressed casually, but it couldn't hide her pretty face. Janessa praised and touched Armando's arm, "Look! That girl! Do you like her? If you like her, I can help you."

Armando glanced at Christy and then looked away. "She's not very beautiful."

Janessa suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes. "Isn't she beautiful? Then tell me what kind of girl do you like?"

Armando just looked at her but didn't say a word. He thought to himself, "Just like you!"

Janessa ignored him and stood up to greet Christy, "Come here, beauty. What's your name?"

Christy looked around. There were only two girls, Janessa and Emily, sitting on the sofa. Janessa acted like a host, so Christy handed the bag to Janessa and smiled. "Hello, I'm Christy, Noah's younger sister."

She took the initiative to sit down on Noah's side and whispered in his ear, "We can't go to the fourth floor. There're security guards at the back door."

Noah nodded and took out a bag of melon seeds from the table and handed it to her. "Take whatever you like."

Christy laughed, "It's okay."

Ferne observed them, "Are you two siblings? You don't look that much alike."

Christy cracked a smile, lifted her long hair and asked, "Why would you say that?"

This was the first time Ferne had seen a woman with such charming expressions. He couldn't help but sigh secretly. Although they didn't look alike, they were really alike in some respects and very attractive.

Noah looked at him coldly and said to Ferne through Christy, "Leave her alone."

"..." You thought too much!

Janessa took the bag and asked in surprise, "Is this a gift for me?" She opened the bag. It was a framed picture of the hall of the guest house, a few patchwork tables, a candle flickering in the wind, a few people leaning against the table to fight for wine, and a group of hazy silhouettes.

People in the picture were not completely painted, especially their faces. However, Janessa recognized it at the first glance, "Armando, this must be you!"

Armando smiled very contentedly. He did not ask Janessa why she recognized him, nor did he confirm whether the person she pointed out was him. As long as Janessa mentioned him first, he would be happy. Nothing else mattered.

"You must have drawn it." Janessa looked at Emily and said, "I like it very much. I want to hang it in my room."

Emily was naturally happy to hear that someone liked her paintings. She smiled and looked at Vincent as if to say, "Look, someone likes my paintings."

Like a kid who wanted a reward.

Emily sometimes was like a child. Vincent grabbed her hand and kissed it. He looked at her with his eyes full of affection. Emily trembled slightly from the kiss in her palm. She inexplicably remembered that in the carriage Vincent was hugging her at noon. He sprayed his breath on her neck and said in an alluring voice, "Don't move..."

Other people were looking at the painting and did not notice them.

Randy looked at the painting and liked it a lot. After all, he was also in the picture. The boy with a hoodie was obviously him. However, Ferne had paid him back the money he bought the painting last time. He said that Emily had earned the money and returned it. The painting could be considered as a gift. If he asked for one more picture, it was a little impolite. If he paid for it, Emily might refuse.

As Randy thought this, he looked at Emily. Then he found Vincent, who always had a cold expression and was covered in the words "not close to a woman", was kissing Emily's palm gently.

"..."

He immediately looked away with mixed feelings.. It was awkward.
