Chapter 40 Contest
"
." Gail thought, it seemed like something was wrong.
The smile on Hoyle's face faded when he saw the hand on Gail's shoulder. Hoyle remembered that Gail didn't like others to touch her, especially when others' hands were on her shoulders.
Hoyle walked up to Gail and looked at James coldly. "I don't need to bother Mr. James. I picked you up because of Gai. Gail helped me a lot and I learned a lot from her. Am I right, Gai?"
Gail looked around awkwardly and said, "let's go. You are tired after sitting for a long time. Let's go to have dinner. It's time for dinner."
As she was saying, Gail grabbed Hoyle's luggage, ready to leave. But James grabbed her wrist and said, "let me do it."
Without asking for her permission, James took the suitcase from her hand. James walked on the left of Gail as if they were coming together to pick Hoyle up.
Hoyle smiled bitterly.
Hoyle thought, 'James is such a bully. I've loved him for so long. When I first called her' Gai', she hadn't said yes. Later, I kept calling her Gai, which she didn't care. Now, since James called her "Gai", her attention was focused on James and seemed to be in a dilemma.
Did I really miss her for the past half a year?'
The truth was, a few hours ago, Hoyle had missed out on Gail. James kissed her, but Hoyle was still thinking about touching her heart after graduation.
James was driving the car. Gail intended to sit in the back seat with Hoyle, but Hoyle deftly took the passenger seat.
'now that we all like Gail, then I shouldn't put her in a difficult position, 'Hoyle thought.
Staring at Hoyle, James didn't say anything.
Along the way, Gail felt the atmosphere in the car was weird. She could only click on the mobile phone to see if there was any information, and then shut it off wearily.
After repeating the movements for many times, James parked the car in front of a restaurant.
"What would you like to eat? How about this Sichuan cuisine restaurant?" James knew that Gail liked Sichuan cuisine. He couldn't get used to it before and always brought her Western food. Today, he chose what Gai liked.
Staring at James, Hoyle sank into deep thought. 'I know that Gai likes Sichuan cuisine. It turns out that James knows it too.'.
However, Hoyle decided to pretend that he didn't know anything about it. He turned to Gail and said, "Gai, let's eat here. I remember you like Sichuan cuisine."
"No, I remember you were not used to eating Sichuan cuisine." She didn't know the background of Hoyle's family, so she once took him to eat Sichuan cuisine. However, he suffered from acute stomach pain for several days. She later knew that he had grown up eating steak, but he always cared about her taste.
"I can eat spicy food now. I'm not weak." As Hoyle spoke, he opened the door, got off the car and walked towards the restaurant.
It was weirder during the dinner. If she knew it, Gail would rather die than eat any Sichuan cuisine.
"Gai, try this. It tastes delicious."
"Gai, this pickled cabbage fish is so delicious. You should eat more."
"This is so spicy. You like it."
James kept putting food in her bowl, completely ignoring Hoyle next to him.
Seeing Hoyle was not happy, Gail told him, "James, could you stop picking up food for me? My bowl is already very full......"
"Well, you should eat more." The man smirked as if he had succeeded. What James had been waiting for was exactly this name, "James." it sounded as if she was calling him naturally, so the smile at the corners of his mouth could not be hidden.
Hoyle lost his appetite. Obviously, they were here to show off their love in front of Hoyle.
But Hoyle knew Gail well and he could tell from her expression that she didn't like it.
Hoyle took out some tissue and handed it to her. "Wipe your mouth. We haven't seen each other for half a year, but you still like to eat the chicken's claws. Come on, all the dishes are yours."
Hoyle had ordered the chicken's claws for her. But Gai only looked at it several times today and didn't eat it. He knew that she was afraid of the vulgar movements.
Gail looked around. She would never forget what she had eaten today.
It was not easy to have the meal. But thinking of sending Hoyle back to school, Gail still felt embarrassed for no reason. She felt awkward between James and Hoyle. No, she needed to find an excuse to slip away.
She looked at Hoyle with a big smile and said, "Hoyle, I won't send you to school. I have something else to do later. Ask Mr. James to send you back." She looked at Mr. James and said, "Mr. James, you can drive him to school for me, you're going in the same direction. "
"Gai, I don't want to go to school now. I'll stay outside for the time being. The school is over anyway." Hoyle knew he didn't have a chance to talk to her alone today, so he had to find another time where he didn't have James by his side to talk to her.
"I have something to deal with too, so I can't send him back. Later, I will go to the field to observe the progress of the project. Hoyle, can you go back alone?" How could James do such a thing as send someone back who was an eyesore to him.
"
." How could Gail have forgotten that? James was such a scheming person that he didn't play by the rules, never thought about the details of others.
However, he seemed to care about a lot of Gail's details, such as the sanitary pads he bought last time. And he bought her a cup of milk tea
'does he really like me as he said?' thought Gail.
"No, thanks. It's very close to my home. I'll go home first. You can leave now. Gai, I will keep in touch with you later. "Hoyle doesn't want to lower himself to the same level as James. Since Gail didn't tell him that she was with James, he still has a chance.
"Okay, I'll call you later." Since Hoyle wanted to go home, Gail didn't need to send him home.
She was supposed to pick him up, but it turned out to be like this.
Watching Hoyle get in the taxi, Gail felt sorry for not having treated him well.
"What's wrong? You don't want Hoyle to leave? Do you know he loves you? Did he confess his feelings to you? "James think they had better make things clear. Otherwise, Gail wouldn't know the truth. "What? You mean Hoyle likes me? No. I'm his schoolmate, and I always see him as my schoolmate. Don't talk nonsense. There are many girls who like him. Don't talk nonsense. "Gail looked at James in disbelief. Why did he say such strange things all of a sudden?
James had guessed that. He touched her head and sighed while saying, "Why are you so stupid? Oh, No. I know that you have a low Eq. I knew he liked you the last time I saw him. But, do you have a crush on him? That's what I care about. "
Gail said in confusion. "I told you that he was just one of my younger schoolmates. He is capable. I don't like him. My boyfriend should be older than me."
Well It seemed that they talked too much. Gail covered her mouth in a hurry.
Seeing her cute expression, James laughed. The first time he saw her, she was a calm and strong girl, but now she was soft and lovely. 'maybe she also likes me.'.
James approached her and asked, "then can you answer my former question? Do you like me?"
