Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 1192


When Shawn Long came here yesterday, he was beaten up the first time before humbly apologizing the second time, so he doesn’t look like a fearless man at all. Instead, he appears timid and cowardly, Mrs. Hunt thought.

Mr. Hunt had also washed up. After drinking with Logan at the dinner table yesterday, his relationship with him seemed to have improved, and he even said that he’d visit him as well if he had the time when he went over to visit Lola.

Upon hearing that, Logan was overjoyed. “When are you planning to come over? I’ll have someone come and drive you. It’s quite a long journey from here, so it’s troublesome to take the bus.”

Mr. Hunt waved a dismissive hand. “That’s not necessary. I’ll go and visit the two of you with some delicious homemade food when I’m free.”

Meanwhile, Lola was already done washing up and was standing in the courtyard, combing her hair. Standing by the window, Logan gazed at her. She had her back to him, standing ramrod straight while tying her hair into a short ponytail that made her appear very much impish. After studying her for a while, Logan suddenly laughed.

The moment Lola stepped into the house when she was done, she saw him staring at her. An inexplicable wave of shyness swept over her. “What are you looking at?”

Logan smiled. “All of a sudden, I find you incredibly beautiful.” His tone was pleasant, his demeanor serious.

Her face flushing, Lola feigned ire and chided, “Scoundrel!”

At this, Logan walked over to her and caressed the top of her head. “Come and eat.”

At the breakfast table, Mr. Hunt exhorted Logan to drive carefully later. After all, they drank a lot last night, so he was afraid that it would be dangerous during the trip back.

Logan nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll drive slower. I’ve naturally got to be extra careful with Lola in the car.”

Her head snapping to the side, Lola shot daggers at him. Never mind if he keeps making suggestive remarks with me, but when he does so with Dad, it’s very easy to be misconstrued. Damn him! He just doesn’t understand my words, flirting with me at every turn! What on earth is he thinking?

Logan enthusiastically ate two bowls of rice, complimenting Mrs. Hunt on her cooking as he ate. Lola used to think that he was a dandy, an arrogant and bigheaded piece of trash, but she now felt that he wasn’t such a person. At the very least, he’s perceptive. He knows how to make his elders happy and win their hearts. Actually, he’s quite smart.

The atmosphere at the breakfast table remained lively throughout the meal.

When they were done eating, Mrs. Hunt gave them plenty of fruits. In reality, it wasn’t necessary to take these things from home since everything could be bought in the city, but still, Logan appeared very happy, showing great delight at everything she placed into the car.

When they were finally going to leave, the neighbors came out. The neighbors naturally knew that the man whom Lola brought home the other time had again come over with her this time and even visited her grandmother’s grave with her. After all, news spread like wildfire in the village, going from mouth to mouth, making it all common knowledge in the entire village within a single night.

Lola didn’t bother to make any explanations since she knew that these village biddies weren’t interested in knowing the truth. To them, the truth was whatever they thought was true.

All these people came out and stood by their doors on the pretext of seeing Lola and Logan off, bidding them farewell. However, it sounded more like they were mocking them. “Oh, Lola brought her friend home again. I was just wondering when he was going to visit again after his last visit, but I never expected it to be this soon.”

After saying that, the neighbor chuckled before saying, “I heard that the man from the blind date also came over yesterday. It seems that a fight broke out, yes?”
