After Being Cheating novel Chapter 141

Daniel picked up some Australian fried beefsteaks onto an empty clean plate and then asked one of the housemaids to place it in front of Janet.

John learned from Daniel, and he picked up a dumpling to a plate with his spoon and then passed it to Janet.

Janet looked at her brother with a smiling face. She praised John, and said, "Good boy!"

Hearing her praising to John, Daniel raised his eyelids, and looked at Janet with a meaningful look in his eyes.

'Why is she treating us differently? I'll have to ask later, ' he thought.

After their dinner, Daniel took Janet and John for a walk nearby.

But when they went out the door, Janet's phone rang, and she saw that the call was coming from Ferris Xiao.

"Hello, Mr. Xiao, " answered Janet. The name she called caught Daniel's attention, who was holding John's little hand.

Ferris said something to her over the phone and Janet grinned an embarrassed smile. She replied, "I'm sorry, but I'm not at home right now. Maybe on some other day!"

"No, I've got a boyfriend, " said Janet. The man on the other side of the line was asking whether Janet was willing to be his girlfriend, but Janet refused him straightforward.

And Daniel was very satisfied with her reply.

"Yes. Mr. Xiao. At the moment I'm kind of busy, but let's talk again some time later, " she said. She then hastily hung up the phone.

When she placed her phone back in her pocket, Daniel reminded her, "Ferris Xiao is well known as being a very mean guy in the business circles. He's not reliable, keep a distance from him from now on."

"What? He's not that bad. He treated me with a meal last time!" replied Janet. 'But I was a bit disappointed that he didn't let me order a bottle of red wine.'

Daniel then threw a glance at her, and spoke in a discontented voice, "That was my treat!"

'What?' Janet was perplexed, and while looking at Daniel, she thought, 'Was the dinner I had with Ferris also paid by Daniel?'

Daniel nodded to her and confirmed her thoughts exactly.

'Well! I've never met such a mean man ever before, ' thought Janet.

In the small garden, only a few people were present there. Daniel and Janet were each holding one of John's hands as they strolled around in the garden.

"I'm kind of busy for the next couple of days, and I can't come with you. What are you going to do tomorrow?" asked Daniel. He had a lot of business affairs to handle, as his company was in a tough period of job transferring as well as in the economical boom season.

The free time he had with Janet had been squeezed in his agenda by his efforts.

"It doesn't matter. Just leave me alone and go ahead with your work. I'll take John to play around tomorrow, " answered Janet. She didn't want to delay his work in any sort of way.

When John saw a little girl with black long hair, he got free of their hands and ran towards the girl.

Daniel continued his conversation with Janet, and said, "Then I'll ask Park to arrange for more bodyguards, and for two more housemaids to take care of John. You just have a good time." Holding her shoulder, Daniel and Janet were looking at John, who was trying to talk and get close with the girl.

"OK, " answered Janet. She then rested her head on his shoulder. John only could speak a little Chinese, and after he greeted the little girl, he wasn't able to understand more of what she said.

He turned to them for help, wearing a helpless look in his eyes.

Janet tittered, and while she was dragging Daniel by his hand, she walked up to John, and asked, "What do you want to tell her?" She acted as his interpreter now.

John gave a shy glance at the little girl. He then said, "I wanted to tell her that she's very beautiful, and if she can be my girlfriend."

...

"No way!" Janet herself straightly refused her brother.

Then she told the little girl in Chinese, "He wants to make friends with you. Can he?"

The little girl nodded her head, and said, "Yes. I'm four years old, how old is he?"

John could understand this question, so he instantly answered, "I'm almost three years old!"

His anxious look made the adults burst into laughter.

The little girl seemed to be not quite enthusiastic about John, but instead she was inclined to talk with Daniel.
