李智恩很尊重乔伊斯的想法,而且她也不是很想去,但是乔伊斯想去的话她也可以陪乔伊斯过去,顺便问问他一些事情
乔伊斯则是看向了梅琳达

(梅琳达)Don't look at me

(梅琳达)If you want to go, you have to hold Lee Ji-eun's hand

(梅琳达)And now that she's pregnant, it's inconvenient, so you have to hold her up a little bit
乔伊斯点了点头,他看向李智恩

(乔伊斯)Would you like to come with me, please?
乔伊斯还是很有绅士风度的,李智恩也很开心,她握着乔伊斯的手就走了过去
梅琳达看着他们俩的背影,嘴角不自觉的往上扬起了一个弧度
——
看到李智恩牵着乔伊斯走过来了,其他人也不惊讶,她们似乎认识乔伊斯
李智恩和乔伊斯找了一个靠角落的位置坐下来
这个时候还有仆人端着东西朝他们走过来,是来上饮料和小吃的
仆人离开以后,乔伊斯看向李智恩

(乔伊斯)Can I eat it now?

of course
乔伊斯拿起来就开始吃,但是他好像特别注意自己的形象

Why are you even here?

(乔伊斯)I'm Melinda's adopted Joyce. Of course I'm here
乔伊斯回答得滴水不漏,似乎不想提起之前在集市上见过李智恩的事情
李智恩也大概明白了

When did Melinda adopt you

(乔伊斯)a few months ago
那就对上了
李智恩之前看到乔伊斯的时候他还没有被梅琳达收养

(乔伊斯)I only came out today because of the dance
皇室的养子是不能离开养母的住处,所以李智恩一直没有在宫里看到乔伊斯

Is this your first time out today?
乔伊斯点了点头

Is Melinda nice to you?

(乔伊斯)Melinda's my mother. Of course she's good to me

(乔伊斯)But they say it's because I look like Melinda's dead child
李智恩点了点头,看来梅琳达没有对乔伊斯不好,那么她就放心了,她只是担心梅琳达利用乔伊斯

You look hungry to me
虽然乔伊斯时刻注意自己的形象,但还是有点狼吞虎咽的样子

(乔伊斯)Melinda won't let me eat these

(乔伊斯)You mustn't tell her
李智恩点了点头
明明这些东西都是小孩子喜欢吃的,但是好像梅琳达不允许乔伊斯吃,既然平时没有吃到,那么今天就吃个够吧

You can eat more food here, but you must promise not to eat too much

Or Melinda won't take you out next time
乔伊斯点了点头

(乔伊斯)Can you help me find a bag?
李智恩有些疑惑

(乔伊斯)Because I wanted to take some home for the other kids, and they didn't eat it either

How many children has Melinda adopted?

(乔伊斯)There are four of them

(乔伊斯)I have one brother and two sisters
看来乔伊斯是最大的那一个

Didn't they come?

(乔伊斯)Melinda said there could only be one person at the dance, and she chose me
李智恩点了点头,但是她觉得不简单,因为她之前见过乔伊斯,现在梅琳达又只带他来,难道是巧合吗?
