Jason finally came to his senses and nudged Emily gently. His voice was mild but deliberate: "Yu, don’t be angry. Liam… he’s probably just too sad and anxious, that’s why he said that… Let’s try to understand him…"
Emily’s eyes filled with disappointment and disgust: "Understand? How could I?"
"Liam, why didn’t I see before that you’re so vain and unreasonable!"
"A private jet? You can brag like that? Do you even know what that means? You had to fight for three days just to get a lousy business-class ticket!"
I looked at her furious face, then at Jason’s unconcealed gloating, and suddenly felt utterly bored.
Wasting time with them was like talking to the deaf.
I couldn’t be bothered to explain. "Whether I’m bragging or not, you’ll find out soon."
