Chapter 343 Caroline

Lyon also noticed Abigail's abnormality, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise a little.

Originally, he really thought that Abigail was bold and fearless. But now, judging from her real reaction of never letting anyone see her ankles and avoiding the gazes of passers-by, she was carefree, but ultimately, she was still just an ordinary girl.

So in order to avoid embarrassing Abigail, Leon quickened his pace, and soon the two of them were not far from Pierre's grocery store.

At this time, Abigail suddenly patted Leon's shoulder: "Okay, Leon, put me down, I can walk back this short distance."

“Don’t be so stubborn.” Leon said to Abigail with some concern: “I’ll carry you in. As long as you explain the reason to your parents, they shouldn’t misunderstand.”

"No." Abigail hadn't forgotten the bet, so she answered firmly: "I can really walk on my own."

"Just be stubborn." Lyon complained helplessly after hearing this, but still followed Abigail's wishes and put her down.

Just as Leon was about to reach out and take Abigail's arm to help her walk back, Abigail, who had just landed, was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins.

He rushed out with big strides. With such swift, flexible and natural movements, it was hard to tell that he had a sprained ankle.

In two breaths, Leon saw Abigail had already run to the glass door of the grocery store. She waved her hands and shouted at Leon with a smug look on her face: "Haha, I got there first, I win!"

At the end, he still felt unsatisfied, and made a face with his tongue out at Leon, showing his attitude as a winner.

Now Leon understood that he was being plotted against, but now that things had come to this, what else could Leon say? He could only blame himself for being kind.

"What Zhang Wuji's mother said is true. Beautiful women are always deceiving."

Lyon, who was silently complaining, raised his middle finger towards Abigail sincerely, then walked to Abigail and spoke.

“Have you ever heard the story of the boy who cried wolf?”

"What's that story? I've never heard of it." Abigail shook her head.

So Leon simply recounted the story. When he finished, he looked at Abigail and asked, "What did you learn from this story?"

"You can lie, but you can't lie too many times." Abigail replied seriously.

“Your Chinese must have been taught by the physical education teacher.” Leon sighed and raised his middle finger at Abigail again.

"Ah? What is Chinese?" Abigail looked at Leon blankly and asked.

"It's a reading club that allows you to learn reading, writing and thinking training." Lyon gave an example.

"Oh, I haven't studied it much. I don't like reading very much." Abigail now understood the meaning of language in Leon's words, but unfortunately she was not interested in this aspect.

"Forget it, let's go in. I lost this time." Leon sighed and said no more.

Chatting with Abigail really made Leon feel helpless, like a scholar meeting a soldier and unable to explain his reason.

Before entering the store, Leon also took out the Calico Desert specialties purchased by Abigail from the system backpack to avoid scaring Pierre and Caroline when he took them out when they met later.

Then, led by Abigail, the two entered the store together. At this moment, most of the lights in the store had been turned off, leaving only some small lights that could illuminate the aisles, providing light to prevent people from accidentally bumping into the shelves.

"Dad always likes to do this before closing the store, saying it saves electricity." Seeing Leon looking around, Abigail explained awkwardly. "Yeah, I understand." Leon nodded. The older generation likes to do this. He has also experienced it, so of course he understands the real situation.

"After all, waste is shameful, isn't it? Welcome, Leon."

Just as Abigail finished complaining, Pierre walked out from the shadow of a shelf and greeted Leon.

"Good evening, Mr. Pierre." Leon politely responded to Pierre's greeting.

"Caroline has prepared dinner and is waiting for you to come back. Let's go to the kitchen."

After Pierre finished speaking, he enthusiastically took the bag from Leon's hand and continued to greet him.

"Bringing so many gifts must cost you a lot of money."

"Um, this was bought by Abigail herself." Leon kindly explained the origins of these things to Pierre, and Pierre froze in place for a moment.

Fortunately, Abigail was very understanding and said, “One of the bags was bought by Leon.”

This time, Pierre's expression relaxed a lot and a smile returned to his face.

While Pierre was putting these things away, Leon teased Abigail, “Is it fun to lie to your dad?”

"Because I bought one for you in the first place. It's not really a lie, it's just that I paid for your gift." Abigail replied with a smile, "I knew you wouldn't remember to bring a gift, so I prepared it for you in advance. How about it, are you touched?"

"Since you are so thoughtful, I will forget about your previous lie to me." Li Shi didn't expect Abigail to have such considerations, and he couldn't help but look at Abigail with a higher opinion.

"Of course, this is my father after all. I know him well. If you didn't bring any gifts when you visited him, he would definitely feel bad that mom prepared such a sumptuous meal for you." Abigail muttered, sticking out her tongue.

"Okay, let's go to the kitchen. It's too dark in here and I feel stuffy."

With that, Abigail took Leon's arm and started walking him towards the kitchen.

Abigail's house is indeed very big, not only because it covers an extremely large area of ​​about 300 square meters of grocery store.

In the private living area, there is also a spacious hall of 200 square meters, which should be where Caroline and her friends usually do aerobics and aerobics.

The kitchen is not small either, with a space of more than 50 square meters, which is much larger than his own wooden house.

This made Leon very sure that Abigail was indeed a rich girl, and Pierre's grocery store business also brought sufficient financial support to the family.

In the restaurant, Leon saw an elegant and beautiful middle-aged woman busy at the stove.

With long green hair and a fair face, if it weren't for the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, Leon really couldn't tell the age of this beautiful woman just by looking at her appearance. This should be Abigail's mother, Lady Caroline.

"Mom! I'm back." Abigail's first move was to go over and help.

"Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner." Caroline first reminded Abigail, then turned around and looked at Leon who was standing at the dining table, and said with a smile.

"Oh, I finally see you, Leon. I'm glad you came to visit my home. You are such a handsome young man. Not bad, not bad."
