It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1447 Do You Envy Us (Part Two)

"Maybe," Leena said, lost in thought. In her eyes, Kevin had always been an omnipotent man, and he could solve all kinds of troubles in the world.

"Girl, when you get to know more about them, you will understand what I mean. To tell you the truth, when they take off their uniforms, they are as fragile as ordinary people, just like you." Everyone in the room had experienced failures and setbacks, but they were all survivors. They had fought their way through to become winners. Their greatest enemy was not someone on the other side of the battlefield, but themselves. "Senior Colonel Ouyang, may I take a picture with you?" a woman asked nervously as she approached Daisy. Her husband had told her that Daisy was called the 'Devil Drillmaster' at the army base. So, she was obviously a little scared to approach her. However, when she saw Daisy, she was so attracted by her that she couldn't help but ask for a picture with her. If Daisy allowed, she could show off her photo to others.

"Of course," Daisy could tell that she was nervous, so she readily agreed to her request.

"Really? That's great! Thank you. Leena, could you take a picture of us?" The woman handed her phone to Leena, and sat cheerfully besides Daisy.

Leena's mind drew a blank when she was suddenly handed the phone. She wasn't listening to the conversation between Daisy and the woman, so she didn't understand what the woman wanted. But when she saw her sitting next to Daisy and posing, she figured that the woman wanted her to take a picture. Although she had never used that particular brand of cell phone, she turned it on and soon found the camera application.

"Are you ready? I'm going to take the picture." Leena looked at them through the screen and thought, 'Daisy is so beautiful, compared to other women. She looks like a queen and the woman next to her looks like a servant girl... Oh my God! How could I think that? I'm such an idiot, Leena felt guilty about being mean to the poor woman.

"Leena, take some more beautiful pictures for us," the woman made a victory gesture and leaned her head towards Daisy.

"Relax. Even if it doesn't turn out well, you can still retouch the photo." Daisy opened her mouth to say something, but decided not to. She thought that she was beautiful and her pictures didn't need to be retouched at all. At the woman's request, Leena took a few more photos for her.

Looking at the photos on the phone, Leena realized that she had never been photographed with Daisy either, and she hadn't clicked any pictures with Kevin either, except for their wedding photo.

When other women saw what was happening, they all wanted to take pictures with Daisy. They knew that it was difficult to be friends with Daisy because of her indifference. So, none of them wanted to miss the opportunity to take a picture with her.

"Daisy! Smile," Leena said, as she showed her a big smile. Leena had noticed that Daisy had not shown any smile all night. The truth was that Leena didn't know that Daisy never smiled at the army base and was used to being cold. Daisy was always strict and serious at the base, so she couldn't smile naturally in such a situation. It was awkward and out of place for her.

When Daisy smiled for the picture, Leena cringed visibly and said, "Forget it. You'd better stop smiling." Her smile was so unnatural that it was even worse than crying.

Daisy gritted her teeth, glared at her, and thought, 'Damn it, woman! Are you kidding me? You just asked me to smile, and now you're telling me not to. Do you think I am some sort of actress?'

Leena smiled sheepishly, knowing what Daisy was thinking. 'Sorry, I didn't mean it. I didn't know that you would smile so unnaturally, Daisy,' she said in her mind.

It was past ten when the dinner party was finally done. Instead of leaving early, Daisy stayed with Leena. At the party, Daisy realized a very subtle truth. Previously, the wives of the officers feared her, not because of her status, but because of her indifference to people. She was always so demanding and inaccessible. But they only felt this way because they didn't know her well enough.

People had to go through experiences like these, so that they could know more about themselves, and about the people around them. Only by understanding each other did we get mutual trust and love.

"Nana, I'm so proud of you," Kevin said drunkenly, on the way home.

"Why?" Leena was driving, so she carefully looked at him sideways. Daisy's car was in front of them, leading the way just in case they were not yet familiar with the road.

"Because the whole army base is jealous that I have such a beautiful and amazing wife." Kevin leaned back against the seat and fixed his eyes on her.

"Oh? Is that so? Weren't you proud of me before today?" Leena puckered her lips and gave him a look of petulance.

"That's not what I meant. Nana, I'm a little dizzy. Don't make fun of me," Kevin complained, rubbing his forehead gently. He thought, 'This girl knows that I didn't mean it, but she still deliberately says these things to make me nervous.'

He looked in front of him and saw Daisy's car slowing down. He asked, "Why is she stopping?" Leena did not answer, but slowly stopped the car behind hers.

"What happened?" Kevin asked, sitting erectly on his seat. He looked ahead and found Edward's limousine parked on the side of the road.

"It's Edward. Didn't Daisy ask him not to come? He's really not afraid of getting into trouble," Leena said as she opened the door and got out.

"Nana, put your coat on." Kevin picked up her coat, got out of the car, and draped it over her.

Edward was looking at Daisy, but he frowned when he saw Leena getting out of the car in her thin clothes. He was relieved when he saw Kevin put the coat on her.

"Didn't I tell you not to come? Why are you here? We would be home soon," Daisy said, looking at him tenderly. This man always surprised her in the sweetest ways. No wonder she loved him so much.

"I was worried about you, so I came. Have you been drinking?" Edward leaned towards her and sniffed.

"Yes, I had one drink. I didn't drink more because I was afraid of getting drunk." Daisy blew him a gentle breath mischievously. Her formerly pale face turned red as he approached closer.

"So you admit that you lose yourself in your cup?" Edward couldn't help smiling and thought that it was nice of her to admit her mistakes.

"Hum. I just can't hold my liquor. That's all. I don't forget myself in my cup!" Daisy glared at him, and then raised her foot to kick him. Edward quickly dodged as if he knew that she would make that move.

"Are you trying to flirt with each other in the middle of the night?" Leena looked at her sideways and asked jokingly.

"What? Do you envy us?" Edward pinched her face gently. If it hadn't been for Leena, Edward wouldn't have let Daisy go out with anyone.

"Of course not! I don't envy you," Leena raised her delicate chin and looked at Edward with contempt.

"Admit it. I promise not to make fun of you." Edward glanced at Kevin, who was standing next to him. Instead of saying anything to him, however, he continued to play jokes on Leena. 'I don't know why she keeps saying strange things to me lately. It's really worrying, ' thought Edward.

"I'm not going to admit anything. You two can stay here. I'm leaving now. It's so cold out here! Only idiots like you would want to play in this freezing temperature," Leena said, as she hugged her coat tightly.

"Are you cold? Get back in the car. We'll leave now," Edward said as he hastened her to get in the car for fear that she might catch a cold.

"Okay, you lead the way. We will follow you," Leena said, as she pushed Kevin into the car.

"Kevin, do you have time to drink with me some other day?" Edward asked, out of the blue. It surprised all of them because, with the exception of Duke, Edward was the one who hated Kevin the most.00000
