Bump! The spoon in Summer's hand fell onto the dining table.
Summer turned to look at Leonardo, dumbfounded.
She had never seen Leonardo so obedient.
Summer clutched Leonardo's sleeve and turned to look at him, "Can you say it again?"
Leonardo turned around and frowned at Summer, his tone impatient, "What do you want me to say?"
Then Leonardo pulled Summer's hand away as if he hated her touch.
In the eyes of others, Leonardo's action seemed that he was very annoyed with Summer's touch.
However, Summer knew Leonardo was shy.
Leonardo wasn't good at expressing himself, so he avoided Summer's eyes by instinct.
Summer felt as if she found a new and correct way to get along with Leonardo.
Sitting opposite Summer and Leonardo, Carl couldn't stand it anymore.
Carl threw his chopsticks on the table and sighed, "I can tell why Warren didn't come to eat. Before I enjoy my meal, I feel that I can't stand you anymore."
"No wonder Warren didn't come." Carl moped and said it again.
When Leonardo heard this, he reached out to embrace Summer and showed off lightly, "I forgot to tell you that we are getting married. I will invite you to be my best man."
Carl was constantly overwhelmed, but he felt bad.
"You ... weren't you still quarreling a few days ago? Why are you getting married so soon?"
Carl asked Summer, "Summer, have you really made up your mind?"
Leonardo sneered and interrupted Carl, "Although you are the best man, don't forget to give me a present. House, car, plane, cash are all fine. I'm not picky."
Carl didn't dare to speak anymore.
Carl was shocked by Leonardo and Summer, so he drank more wine.
Leonardo asked the waiter to carry Carl to the room upstairs to sleep and left with Summer.
After arriving in the car, Summer was still a little worried.
"Is it alright to leave Carl there alone?"
"Half of Golden Cauldron Club belongs to Carl. He's also the boss apparently. Nobody can do anything to him." With that, Leonardo looked a little seriously, "Don't worry about other men."
Summer asked Leonardo, "Can't I care about Carl as his friend?"
Leonardo replied resolutely, "No."
Hearing this, Summer pursed her lips and did not say anything.
The inherent problems between Summer and Leonardo still existed.
Summer could find out why Leonardo didn't allow Summer to get in touch with Stanley before.
But now Leonardo didn't allow Summer to care about Carl.
Leonardo sounded so serious that he didn't seem to be joking at all.
Carl was Leonardo's best friend for many years. Summer knew that Leonardo trusted Carl.
Since Leonardo believed in Carl and knew that Summer cared about Carl as his friend, so why didn't Leonardo allow her to care for his friend?
Summer remembered what Tim said that night. Tim said that Leonardo had a few character flaws. It was indeed the case.
'What should I do if Leonardo's still angry with little things all his life and always minds me talking to other men more?'
Perhaps because Summer had been silent for too long, Leonardo suddenly asked, "What are you thinking?"
