Lie Flat, Sugar Daddy

Chapter 38 You Are Not Lame

After Rae finished washing and went out, Jensen went into the bathroom. Rae stood in front of the

closet and looked for something to wear. Though the closet was filled with clothes, she didn't find

something that fit. As Jensen was about to come out of the bathroom, she chose a pair of short jeans

and a white shirt and put the edge of the long shirt into jeans. A simple outfit. Rae looked in the mirror

and turned around, feeling good. Then she tied her hair.

As Jensen went out, he saw her dressing up like a young girl as if she studied at campus.

Actually, he loved it. She looked much prettier in that way.

More importantly, he felt he could roll back the clock and start over when he saw her outfit.

Jensen hid his feelings, just thought to himself for a few seconds, and began to change clothes.

After Rae was done, she went barefoot to the refrigerator, picked up the iced sour milk and took a gulp.

Then she put it back, gave a loud belch and felt relieved. When she turned around, Jensen was staring

at her. She immediately felt guilty.

She didn't know if Jensen would criticize her for not pouring the milk into a cup or giving a loud belch

like drunk man.

"If you get a stomachache again, don't ask me to rub your belly." Jensen said, walked to the door and

changed shoes.

Rae did not expect that he wouldn't scold her but care for her. She immediately smiled, walked over to

Jensen, took out a pair of white canvas shoes and threw them on the floor. She put on them and

promised, "Well, I won't do it next time."

Jensen was silent.

They left for church together.

The church was halfway up the hill. Even so, many people came to the church every week.

Rae only went with Jensen a few times because she found it boring to hear the sermon. She didn't

know why Jensen liked it. To get to the church, they had to pass the main road to a small road and

drive uphill. However, cars were forbidden on the small road today. They drove along the main road

slowly to seek for a parking space. Several minutes passed by and they found none. Thinking that they

had to walk to the church, she lost her temper, "It's so far!"

"I see one." Jensen finally found a parking space, parked his car and they got off.

It was extremely hot at ten o'clock in the morning.

Rae only walked for a while and could not stand it. She felt the sweat trickling down from her back. She

was very uncomfortable, frowned and complained to Jensen, "I don't want to go. It's so hot."

"But you've only walked for three minutes." Jensen was at a loss. He knew she could not endure the

hardship, but she gave in so soon.

"I am out of this." Rae looked around and saw that everyone was sweating. It was halfway up the hill

and there was no shop. She had no choice but sit in the car.

The point was that she didn't want to be left alone. She would feel bored.

Jensen did not want her to stay in the car. If so, she would send him text messages every minute to ask

if he was done. He knew her so well. Thinking for a while, he took a step forward, squatted down and

asked, "Let me carry you?"

"I am sorry to trouble you…" Though Rae felt sorry, she didn't refuse him.

Jensen carried her to the church. Rae felt hotter when she was pressing against his back. At least, she

didn't have to walk. Along the way, he met the old church members who greeted him. Rae waved her

hand at them on behalf of Jensen. Faith was something magical. The members became very gentle

and little aggressive. They seemed to forget how they used dodgy methods in business world. Rae

suddenly understood that the reason why Jensen often came here to listen to sermon. Perhaps he

wanted to purify his mind.

Although he didn't have to use swords or pistols to fight with his rivals, he may face some sharp

practice from competing companies.

They finally walked on the small road. Looking at the hill, Rae felt the slope was very steep. Usually,

the rich would drive up the hill by car. Now they had to walk slowly. Some even stopped and wiped the

sweat with tissues. Obviously, they seldom exercised.

"If you're tired, just tell me. Put me down. I can walk by myself." Rae said casually.

"How long can you insist on walking?" Jensen didn't believe her. Drops of sweat ran down from his

forehead to his chin and dropped on the asphalt ground. He would rather carry her to the church than

let her stop every few steps. Jensen adjusted himself and continued to walk.

"Your words hurt me." Rae knew that she could not insist, but she refused to surrender.

She hadn't insisted on walking on the plain road for three minutes, not to mention the steep slope.

"Did I? Every time we go hiking in Spring or Autumn, I carry you up the hill." Jensen felt very hot. He

rarely sweat. However, today he kept sweating and felt very uncomfortable as he was wet all over his

body. Rae was hot and he carried her as if he carried a small stove. Hearing her words, Jensen felt a

bit annoyed.

Rae felt guilty at once.

After being reminded by Jensen, Rae recalled that every time the school organized the outing, they

would climb the mountain in the morning and had a picnic in the afternoon. She was not good at doing

sports and afraid of heat, so she was often left behind by her classmates. She lost her temper every This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

few minutes. Moreover, other girls liked to enrage Rae and told her that the class photo would be shot

without her. Rae did not want to be alone, but she couldn't go any farther. Therefore, Jensen carried

her every time.

At that time, she had a boyfriend.

Her boyfriend competed with other boys, ran very far and never walked with her.

Why did Jensen always find out that she couldn't walk?

He must have been deliberately walking slower than she did!

She was so stupid that she hadn't noticed it before. She only thought it was good to have Jensen

around when she was in need.

Rae suddenly felt herself a bad woman. She knew that Jensen liked her, but she played dumb on

purpose and accepted his help. She really did not want to be left behind and hoped to take a picture

with the class. She didn't expect Jensen would still carry her up the hill even if so many years had gone

by.

Thinking about what Flora had said, Rae felt very touched by Jensen.

When they were in preschool and played hide-and-seek, he would run out to divert others' attention

and prevent Rae from being caught.

When they went for a school outing, he always carried her up the mountain. Jensen was too

outstanding in the class. Though he arrived at the hilltop much slower, others would wait for him to take

a picture together.

Even if they became adults, he still carried her up the hill.

Rae hooked up around his neck with more force and deliberately rubbed against his short hair with her

face. She said, "It’s always you, so you have to carry me all the time, and do not leave me alone."

In fact, she was implying something.

It didn't mean that he just needed to carry her uphill.

They could walk hand-in-hand for years and even longer.

She knew his difficulties. Even if he thought that he did not need the help of the Clark family, the Clark

family needed his power. The Knight family thought that the Clark family was a good ally. For these

reasons…

Rae seldom showed her love to Jensen in public.

Jensen didn't get the implied meaning, so he just said, "I see."

Two women with umbrellas were behind them and whispering.

"Isn't that Mr Knight, Karina's fiance?" The woman with a black umbrella rubbed her eyes for fear of

making mistakes.

"I thought I was wrong, but you confirmed it" The woman with a white umbrella echoed, "Though it is

common for the rich to have an affair, and Karina hasn't get married to Mr Knight, this woman is so

haughty and even let Mr Knight carry her in public. She wasn’t lame, right?"

"Take my umbrella. I need to show Karina's father this. He should instruct his son-in-law, otherwise

Karina would get into trouble if it continues." The woman put the black umbrella into the other woman's

hand. Then she took pictures of Rae and Jensen with her cellphone.

"Yes, she is too arrogant." The other woman echoed.

Thirty minutes later.

In the church.

Jensen drank up four bottles of mineral water. Rae felt sorry and asked, "Do you want more? I'll go to

buy it."

Jensen shook his head and the broken hair on his forehead shook a bit. He finished the last drink, took

a deep breath and could hardly speak.

"I am sorry. I won't come with you anymore." Rae was a little guilty.

He didn’t put her down along the way. She thought he could stand it, but he really suffered a lot.

Jensen pulled her wrist to let her sit down beside him. He glanced at her and said, "You are much

thinner than before."

Rae stared at him. He was implying that she was fat before.

Even if she was heavy, Jensen could carry her uphill.

Thinking about that, Rae felt pleased.

As the minister was about to preach the sermon, Jensen took out his mobile phone and wanted to turn

on the silent mode. Someone happened to call him. The mobile phone was vibrating in his hand.

Seeing Rae was looking somewhere else, Jensen picked up the phone.
