Chapter 984 Hanging Out With Kevin (Part Two)

"How about your Dad? Is he still in the living room?" The woman asked carefully. She was a bit afraid of Kevin's father as he was a cold and straight-faced man.

"No. He is in the study now. He has some work to finish. Let's go." Kevin was still in his military uniform. He grabbed Leena's hand and walked out of the bedroom.

An empty living room welcomed them as they reached downstairs. It was to Leena's delight, even Claire was not there. That was the only time that woman felt relieved.

They walked out of the Gu's house courtyard. The houses in the neighborhood were all arranged perfectly. Obviously, the place was a high-grade area and all the house owners were decent people.

"Let's go! The playing field is over there. I used to play there when I was a child." Kevin and Leena were holding each other's hand as they walked. Several soldiers jogged pass them and she found them pretty interesting.

"Kevin, I thought they were having a drill every morning. Why are they jogging now?" Leena asked curiously. She couldn't help but feel engrossed in everything there as that was the place where Kevin grew up.

"They are not having a drill. They are just exercising. See the poplar tree over there? I was taller than it when I was a kid. It's much taller than me now, though." Emotions overcame Kevin as he spoke. He had been a naughty boy and always had fights with his fellows during his younger years. His father had beaten him countless times because of that.

"Haha, you're so funny! Were you a little monkey in your childhood?" She made a face at him as she asked. She felt like she was on the top of the world while hanging out with him like this.

"Well, my fellows were as naughty as I was. We almost fought with each other every day but we wouldn't hate each other." Years had passed. His childhood playmates had drifted apart a long time ago. Kevin had also left this place after he had spent nearly twenty years here. It was not easy for him to have a gathering with them.

"Wow, sounds like you were good buddies." Leena sighed. It seemed that Kevin missed his childhood playmates. She didn't know how to comfort him.

ve been looking all over for you." Claire complained with a dark expression.

"What's going on? We're going back home." Kevin replied as he grabbed Leena's hand and walked towards his sibling.

"It's dinner time, and mom asked me to look for you two." Claire gave a cold glance at Leena and immediately looked away. She then squeezed herself between the two so the couple had to let go of each other.

"Claire, thank you. I'm sorry for bothering you." Leena gave her a friendly smile as she noticed that Claire purposely separated her from Kevin. She must be very possessive of her brother. Needless to say, Leena could understand that.

"You should be sorry. I've looked for you for such a long time." Claire said in a cold tone. She just didn't like Leena and would do anything to keep her away from Kevin.

"Claire, I don't want to repeat what I've told you." It was Kevin's serious tone that cut between the ladies' conversation. He knew that his sister was a willful girl. Nonetheless, that was not an excuse for her to be rude to his wife. Leena was even younger than Claire but she was more mature.

"Got it. Kevin, let's go. Mom cooked your favorite dishes." Indifference was in Claire's voice as she didn't take his words seriously. She never looked at Leena in the eye for she believed that Leena was a person from a poor family. She didn't deserve her brother. She had pledged to show no respect to Leena at all.
