Chapter 41: Scumbag, Do You Know How to Do Splits?
Alina followed closely behind Wilson and entered his room.
Inside the room, the first thing she saw were rows upon rows of bookshelves. The shelves were packed
with books. It gave her the feeling that she had accidentally entered a library.
"Do you like reading?" Alina asked Wilson.
"Not really!" Wilson replied.
Alina was puzzled by his reply.
Wilson stood motionlessly in front of the bookshelves and stared at them. A soft smile appeared on his
face. "Since childhood, there were many books that I had to study. At that time, I did not understand it,
but I just read whatever I was told so that I could go out and play. When I grew a little older, I was
forced to study piles of books that I'm not actually interested in, due to peer pressure and competition
from others. Later on, reading became a habit for me. Habits are a big part of a man's daily life!"
Alina's mouth widened in surprise. "You've finished reading all these books?"
"Yes," Wilson continued, "Let's go and take a look elsewhere!"
Alina immediately followed him inside. She pursed her lips and thought to herself, "It's not as great as it
looks to be a born with a silver spoon. He had to study so many books that it's scary to look at."
Then, she thought of Lucas and Colton that she had seen before. Needless to say, the two should be
the competitors mentioned by S*umbag. Fortunately, Wilson excelled in his studies and stood out!
Otherwise, he would not be the current president of Scott Group.
But now, all three grandsons have their girlfriends. Would she be a burden to Wilson, seeing as she
had no family background?
Thinking of this, she ran after Wilson to ask a question.
Wilson had already started giving a tour. "The younger generation of Scott Family usually has a private
room to themselves since young, and all the rooms are similar. The first was a reading room. When I
was younger, there were no books in this room at first, but toys instead.
"At that time, we could invite friends to come over and play together. Later, books was added to the
room so that we could read together. A private tutor began to teach us our lessons, and a maid took
care of our daily life.
"After I grew up, we were expected to be independent. Friends could no longer come over, and the
private tutor was dismissed.
"At this age, we were expected to complete our own learning tasks. If we manage to finish our tasks,
only then were we allowed to play in the villa's playground during the weekends. You know, it's every
child's nature to play.
"In the Scott Family, we were required to learn more than just study. See, this is our music room, which
has all kinds of musical instruments. It was mandatory for the children of Scott Family to master at least
three different kinds of musical instruments. Grandfather said that is was to help us develop a calm
temperament. I didn't understand it before and even resented his strict teaching. However, I kind of
understand his painstaking efforts now. When humans are under pressure or in a particularly bad
mood, music can help us to calm our emotions. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
"This is the language lab. Grandfather also required us to master two foreign languages apart from
English. It was really difficult at that time, but after I grew up, I realized that Grandfather had foresight.
"This is the dance room. The young ladies of the Scott Family would learn ballet and ballroom dancing.
For the young masters, we had flexibility training since young to improve our posture and balance."
Hearing all this, Alina was astonished. She really didn't expect Wilson to have such a demanding
childhood. Trying to lighten the mood, Alina said jokingly, "Scumbag, do you know how to do splits?"
She stared at Wilson's slender back curiously. Just thinking of how he would do a split made her giggle.
Wilson turned around and looked at Alina. He smiled and said, "Do you want to see me do it?"
"Yes, yes!" Alina exclaimed as she nodded furiously.
Wilson's smile grew wider. "I'll show you only after we get married!" As he said this, he gestured
towards another door and said, "This is my bedroom!"
Wilson's phone suddenly rang and he motioned to Alina. "Go in and have a look. Take a rest and wait
for me inside!"
