On the way, Georgie held back for a long ti, but still asked, "Mike, what happened just now, you and that woman?"
As he spoke, Georgie's face showed a lewd smile that all n understood.
"Don't ask about Selena, and don't be curious. This is for your own good," Mike warned sternly.
"I understand, I understand…" Georgie thought Mike wanted to do sothing exciting.
Then, he still kindly reminded, "That Mike, you know she's Pastor Jeff's wife, right? Isn't it a bit..."
"What are you thinking?" Mike turned his head and glared at him fiercely. "Do I look like that kind of person?"
Georgie looked at Mike's handso face, first nodded, then quickly shook his head.
Mike looked at his goofy appearance and didn't say much. After all, for ordinary people, the more they knew about Selena's affairs, the more dangerous it would be.
However, Georgie was quiet for a while, then changed the subject and complained, "Mike, the dating tips you taught before were useless at all... Especially after I told them to drink more hot water, those girls stopped talking to ."
Mike, who was originally feeling a bit heavy-hearted, almost burst out laughing when he heard Georgie's words.
But doing so would be too impolite. So, Mike suppressed his laughter, patted his shoulder, and said, "Have you heard this saying, 'failure is the mother of success'? Don't worry, you're so excellent, one failure is nothing, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Hearing Mike's praise, Georgie expressed his strong agreent: "You're right."
Afterward, he said unconfidently, "I think girls are too hard to understand. Why don't you suggest a suitable target for ?"
Mike turned his head and scrutinized Georgie from head to toe. Besides the trait of being honest, it was hard to find any other advantages in him. So, Mike casually said, "Next ti, we'll talk about it if there's a chance."
The two chatted all the way to the activity venue.
Several open spaces were partitioned on the lawn: so places for ring toss, so for fishing with empty wine bottles, and in the middle area, a three-legged race was underway.
Most of these activities were for parents to play with their children. The prizes were small crosses provided by the church.
Sheldon and Missy, accompanied by three elders, stood at the starting line of the three-legged race.
Three-legged race: refers to a ga where two people have one leg tied together. In this state, they race from the starting line to the finish line.
This ga greatly tests the tacit agreent between players.
However, at the starting line, Sheldon was complaining that there were too many bugs in the grass, making him very uncomfortable.
Missy kept looking around, and when she saw Mike coming over, she happily asked, "Mom, I don't want to be with Sheldon. Can I team up with Mike?"
"No," Mary imdiately refused, and then seeing her daughter's unhappy expression, she patiently explained, "Mike's legs are too long. If you team up with him, you'll just be dragged along. Do you want that?"
Thinking of that comical scene, Missy quickly shook her head, forgetting the bad image, and at the sa ti, she vowed in her heart: she must grow into a long-legged beauty in the future.
Mike went over and greeted the Cooper family after seeing them.
On the other side, Georgie saw that Sheldon hadn't started yet and excitedly said, "Mike, hurry, let's join this race too."
It was a rare opportunity for Georgie to defeat Sheldon head-on, and he was very enthusiastic.
Mike looked at Sheldon, who was neither in the mood nor willing to participate in the activity, and said, "Wouldn't it be bullying the children if we participated?"
"It's fine, look over there," Georgie said indifferently.
Following the direction he pointed, Mike found that there were indeed so older children also preparing for the race around the starting line.
It turned out that the small activities held by the church focused on participation.
So, at Georgie's strong request, Mike finally signed up for the three-legged race.
As the starting gun fired, Mike, tall and long-legged, quickly adapted to Georgie's pace.
This was not difficult for Mike.
Soon, the tacit agreent pair overtook their competitors and approached the finish line a hundred ters away.
Just as the two were ten ters from the finish line, a gasp suddenly ca from behind, accompanied by the laughter of parents beside the track.
Mike wanted to turn back to see what happened, but he found that Georgie next to him was full of desire for this victory.
So, Mike suppressed his curiosity and didn't hold his partner back.
A few seconds later, when the two crossed the finish line, Mike finally had ti to look back.
Outside the track, Sheldon was waving his arms in horror, while unconsciously screaming.
Two small bees were flying around his head.
Sheldon wanted to run away, but he wasn't as strong as Missy and was pulled back to his spot.
This comical scene could be described as Sheldon's mont of social death.
The parents nearby were all amused by this funny scene, laughing heartily, with Connie laughing the loudest.
After Mary made sure her youngest son was not in danger, she urged with a smile, "George, quick, the cara, capture this mont. It will be an unforgettable mont…"
Finally, just as Sheldon was about to cry, Missy squatted down and, with a look of disdain, untied the rope tied to his ankle.
Freed, Sheldon scurried wildly across the grass, using both his hands and feet as if he were insane.
Imdiately, a burst of good-natured laughter erupted from the sidelines again.
Finally, Connie went up and hugged her darling grandson, comforting him, "It's alright, Sheldon, Grandma is here."
Sheldon, comforted, felt much better, but he firmly refused to participate in the remaining races.
And Georgie, who had received a small cross, finally got to show off in front of his younger brother for a while.
Afterward, at Connie's suggestion, Mike also participated in the ring toss and fishing gas. With his extraordinary talent, Mike won two more small crosses before the event ended.
He gave these two crosses to Sheldon and Missy respectively.
In the early evening, the Cooper family, having had a joyful day, contentedly embarked on their journey ho.
In George's car, Shelly and Missy each held a small cross and were sound asleep.
Feeling the evening breeze, Mary looked at her husband driving beside her and sighed, "This day was truly wonderful—"
"Indeed, opportunities to see Shelly make a fool of himself are rare," George said, spoiling the mood.
His cara had captured many photos, including Connie, Georgie, Mike, and others, which were the family's most precious mories.
On Connie's side, Georgie was also asleep in the back seat. Mumbling occasionally, he looked like he was having a good dream.
Connie, driving quietly, looked at Mike in the passenger seat and suddenly asked, "By the way, that girl nad Lina, why didn't I see her this afternoon?"
"Maybe she had other things to do," Mike said casually.
However, he knew in his heart that Lina hadn't co to find him again that afternoon. One reason was probably that she was tired from earlier in the day and needed rest. Another was that she was afraid of her mother discovering sothing amiss.
It had to be said that Lina was also a good girl.
