My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 1025 Teaching Sydney Hand by Hand

"Well, it's getting late, so you'd better finish carving the orchid so that we can eat. Otherwise, the food will get cold later," Sydney said while adjusting her hair which was rumpled up by Julien.

Now Julien knew why she came out of his arms.

He had thought she was tired of his embrace. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

"Well, I'll be quick," Julien nodded his head slightly and turned around. Then he picked up the pumpkin and carving knife he had just put down to continue to carve.

Sydney stood back to his side and looked at him carving, "I didn't expect that you would learn how to carve a Buddha out of gem, and now I find you even can carve orchids out of pumpkins."

Julien smiled, "The Buddha I wanted to make was big and had many details, so my teacher didn't approve of me carving the Buddha directly. Although I had money and didn't care about wasting jade, my teacher cared, so he let me start with some simple small objects with scraps of jade. Orchid was one of my choices. After I had learned some carving techniques from carving small objects and was almost skilled, he taught me to carve a Buddha."

"I see," Sydney nodded, "But that was so long ago. I didn't expect you would still remember and be so skilled. If I were you, I would be a novice again."

Julien's eyes flashed, and he did not say anything.

Sydney didn't realize anything was wrong, and her eyes glittered when she looked at the pumpkin in Julien's hand.

At first, the pumpkin she carved didn't look like an orchid and even didn’t look like anything at all. It was so ugly that Sydney didn’t want to see it.

However, with Julien's efforts, it began to have the appearance of an orchid. Now she could tell that it was indeed an orchid at a glance.

Sydney exclaimed, "Awesome. You save it. Julien, you're amazing!"

Hearing her praise, Julien was extremely happy. He smiled widely and even lifted his chin a little higher than just now.

Obviously, he was very pleased with Sydney’s praise, so now he was somewhat complacent.

But he pretended not to care and replied calmly, "It looks fine."

Sydney did not know that he was pretending to be modest. Hearing his so indifferent answer, Sydney was a little displeased. She pouted and said, "Just fine? It's great. I can't believe you are so good at carving. I've never heard you say it before."

Then she looked at Julien adoringly.

Julien became a little shy because of the way she looked at him. He coughed and pretended to be calm, "It's not an important thing, so I never told you. I wouldn't even remember this skill if you hadn't carved an orchid tonight."

As he spoke, he lowered his eyelids to cover a flash of glint in his eyes.

Sydney did not see it but showed a smug face, "You mean I rediscovered your skill?"

Looking at her proud look, Julien scratched her nose gently, "Yes."

Sydney smiled more brightly, "It seems that I will have to do something I've never done before so that maybe we will know you have other skills."

Hearing this, Julien raised her eyebrows.

Sydney was right. Julien did have some skills that he had not told her, nor had he shown them to her.

After all, from the moment Julien was born, he became the heir of the Flint family, so he naturally had to learn many skills.

It could be said that Julien could do many things even if he was not proficient in all of these skills.

In short, now he did not know what skills he had.

"Well, I expect you to rediscover all my skills," Julien said with a doting face.

Sydney nodded heavily, "OK, then you wait. I'm sure I will."

"Hmm, I believe you," Julien also nodded.

After that, Sydney no longer disturbed him and quieted down.

After carving for a while, Julien found she was still seriously staring at him carving the orchid. He paused for a moment and then asked, "Do you want to have a try?"

Sydney stood up straight in amazement, "Me? Have a try?"

She pointed to her nose.

Julien nodded, "Yes, you can try it."

"No, I can't do that," Sydney shook her head and waved her hand again and again to show that she thought she could not do it.

Julien looked at her, "Why do you think so?"

Sydney shrugged her shoulders and said, "As you just saw, I did it very badly, and I'm not like you. I'm a novice, but you have learned it before. You've saved my terrible and unrecognizable orchid. If I try to carve again, such a beautiful orchid will be ruined.”

Julien looked at her, then looked at the orchid in his hand, and finally chuckled, "It doesn't matter if it will be ruined. Anyway, no one else is here, and no one will laugh at you. I’m here. I don't think it will definitely be ruined. Come here. I'll teach you."

He waved to her.

Sydney looked at the orchid in his hand and was hesitant.

In fact, after she saw he saved her terrible work easily, she was curious and really wanted to try it again.

But she knew her ability, so she suppressed the desire in order not to make a fool of herself.

Now Julien’s question made her have the desire to try again.

Looking at Sydney’s hesitant expression, Julien reached out his hand, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her to his side.

“Ah,” Sydney was startled.

Julien's index finger pressed against her lips, "Don't be afraid. It's me."

Sydney blinked, then took his finger away from her lips, and said angrily, "I know it's you. I was startled by you suddenly pulling me over."

Julien smiled, "Sorry, I just saw that you wanted to try but didn't dare to try, so I just helped you make a decision. All right, let's try. Don't worry. I'll teach you. I won't let you ruin it."

As he spoke, he stood behind her, gave her the pumpkin and carving knife, and then held her hands to teach her how to carve.

With Julien’s guidance, Sydney was no longer unconfident and became more and more comfortable with carving. She said with joy, "Julien, did you see it? I can carve. Although I only know the simplest way you taught me, I can carve simple objects."

She turned to look at Julien behind her, and her little face flushed with excitement.

Julien laughed when he saw that she was so happy, "Yes, I see it. You are very clever."

"Right, I am clever," Sydney raised her chin proudly, then poked him with her elbow, "Let go of me first."

"What's the matter?" Julien looked at her with puzzlement and asked.

Sydney hummed, "I've known how to carve, so I want to do the rest on my own. I don't need you anymore. You can let me go."

Julien’s mouth twitched slightly, and then he asked, "Are you sure you don't need me to teach you?"
