Sweet Twins

Chapter 33 No Need To Blind Date

However, Doris had ignored her teacher and left angrily.

After going to college, she had gradually understood what her teacher had meant. She was a straight person who both took and gave offense easily. It would be very hard for her to become an actress.

But though she had finally understood what her teacher had been worried about, her dream of becoming an actress had never vanished from her heart.

"Hold my arm!" Jay said in a low voice.

"Well..." Doris took his arm obediently.

Sure enough, there was an instant change in the way people perceived her. More and more people began to steal glances at her.

The next person who came up to greet Jay said,

"Hello, Mr. Fang. Who is this?" while shooting her a polite smile.

Suddenly, it occurred to Jay that he didn't know her name.

But since he didn't like the way she kept addressing him as "three-year-old," he decided to take this opportunity for revenge.

"This is Miss Silly," he said casually.

The man he was talking to just accepted the name without thinking too much and said, "Oh, well, how do you do, Miss Silly?" while holding his hand out for Doris to shake.

"Hello!" Doris reached out and happily shook his hand.

"Hello, hello..."

She hadn't expected that there would be such a big change in people's attitude toward her just because she was holding Jay's arm.

Like a proud peacock,

she strutted around the room while holding Jay's arm.

When they finally sat at a table, Jay handed her the menu and said, "Order whatever you like."

'Perhaps I've met a rich guy,' Doris thought and decided to order the most expensive dishes at this hotel.

As she rattled off the dishes she had chosen, she looked up at the man in front of her to gauge his reaction.

To her surprise, he didn't even frown.

"Well...

Why did you call me Miss Silly just now?" she finally asked.

"Oh, that? Don't you think it suits you?"

"You were just taking revenge on me because I called you a three-year-old before, weren't you?" Doris narrowed her eyes at him.

"You can call me a three-year-old, but I can't call you Miss Silly? How about I call you a two-year-old? " Jay said casually, crossing his legs.

"No. My name is Doris He, so you can call me Miss He. Or just Doris," Doris said, finally properly introducing herself to this strange man.

"Uh-huh. That's a beautiful name. I'll call you Doris," Jay said half-heartedly.

"Well, now it's time for you to introduce yourself."

Hearing that, Jay froze for a moment, and then sneered.

"Doris, do you think you are on a blind date with me?"

"What? I... Are you out of your mind? A blind date? It's the 21st century. Why would I go on a blind date? Since we're having a meal together at the same table, can't I even know your name?" Feeling humiliated, Doris lowered her head, clenched her teeth, and angrily kicked the table leg with the tip of her shoe.

"You're right, that makes sense." Jay nodded and smoothed his dry hair. "You heard them call me Mr. Fang, right? You can call me that too."

Mr. Fang? 'What a boring name,' Doris thought.

"Okay, Mr. Fang, you can ask me what you want to know about Nancy. If you don't, I will feel very sorry for the clothes worth twenty thousand," she said coldly.

Jay smirked, thinking that this woman had a one-track mind. But she was right; he really did want to know about Nancy's background.

"Doris, you said that you're close to Nancy and that you have known her for years. So, tell me frankly about Nancy's life and her past."

"Well, Nancy can write an autobiography!" Doris said, continuing to kick the table leg. After taking a few sips of tea, she continued, "Actually, she is a very simple woman. She's so kind and gullible that people feel sorry for her."

"Go on."

Doris began to pour everything she knew about Nancy, including how Nancy had been bullied by Jill and Fannie, the matter of her poor mother, and the fact that it was Ethan who had protected her.

When she reached the part about the summer vacation before junior year, however, she bit her lips hesitantly.

"What's wrong?" Jay prompted.

"That year, Nancy was sick." During the summer vacation of that year, when Doris had been working at her part-time job at a supermarket, she had suddenly received a call from Nancy saying that she was sick and that she needed someone to help her take care of her mom, who was in a sanatorium.

"What's wrong with you?" Doris had asked anxiously, but Nancy hadn't given her a proper response. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Later, when Nancy's mother had had surgery,

she only had Doris for company.

The next time they met, Nancy was going abroad soon.

"What was wrong with her?" Jay asked, focusing on the key point.

"I don't know. I asked her about it, but she never told me," replied Doris, shaking her head.

"What happened then?" Jay asked again.

By this point, Doris had spoken so much that her throat was dry. She gulped down the glass of water in front of her and then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief before continuing, "As you know, when Nancy returned from her studies abroad, she was hired by the municipal hospital."

Jay thought for a while, then asked, "That Ethan... Does he like Nancy very much?"

"Of course. Ethan has never dated anyone because he's still waiting for Nancy."

"Does Nancy like him?"

Doris sighed. "I think so."

"So...are they dating?"

"No," replied Doris, shaking her head.

"Since they like each other, why aren't they dating?"

"I've also wondered about this, but Nancy never gave me a straight answer. I think she has a secret. Wait —" Doris cut herself off and looked at Jay in shock, suddenly realizing that she had said too much. "Why are you asking me all this? What do you plan on doing to Nancy? I tell you, if you lay a finger on her, I will kill you!" she warned.

Jay shrugged. "Are you that loyal to her?"

"We are good friends. You'd better remember that."

"Okay. Nancy should be very happy to have a friend like you." Jay nodded appreciatively.

"Of course. I am happy to have a friend like her too. Nancy pays attention to details. We are complementary to each other," Doris said proudly.

Jay poured her a glass of red wine and said, "Well, I can see that."

"Are you saying... my personality is okay?" Doris looked at him seriously.

Up till now, she had never understood why all the great guys in college had avoided her.

Pursing his lips in embarrassment, Jay answered, "Well, it's not bad."

In fact, this woman was like a demon who tortured other people! It would take a man with a lot of courage to pursue a woman like her.

When all the dishes were finally served,

Doris gobbled down the food like she was starving.
