“Not bad. Next time can try a little more.” Brandon heard Peter ask. His lips smiled softly. Thinking of that soft taste, Brandon felt excited again.

Looking at Brandon’s infatuation, Peter chuckled, guessing that Brandon was already a little interested in the girl.

“Do you know her name? Next time you can ask her directly to serve you.” Peter thought for a moment, deciding to suggest to Brandon.

“Hmm, apparently not, just kissed just now, then she slapped me, now here we are. I haven’t had a chance to ask her name.” Brandon recalled, shook his head in response to Peter, with a little regret in his heart, “Next time I visit the owner, I hope she doesn’t run away.”

Peter said nothing. A moment later, he reluctantly looked at Brandon and smiled. “Kiss someone you don’t even know his name. Brandon, you’re so good!”

“Haha, it’s normal.” said Brandon.

Three people Brandon, Jack, Peter walked for a while on the main road, waved to catch a taxi. Brandon looked at Jack, sighed, “Go to my private villa in the South. We will have a party there tonight. Will you go?”

Jack looked at Brandon, laughed haha, “Ok, ok, remember to ask the long-legged girls to serve you!” He reached out his hand to count, “At least five of them.”

Brandon put his arm around his shoulder, nodding briefly, “Okay, five, bro! Is that okay?”

Anna gathered her clothes on the chair, boredly slung her bag over her shoulder to prepare to go home. What a bad day today!

She not only lost her first kiss, but was also deducted half of the service fee by the owner for making customers leave, fortunately with the help of a server, she was not charged with a broken glass of wine!

Brandon, you’re a lousy bastard!

Anna clenched her fists, pounding heavily on the door. In addition, she also had to keep this matter a secret. If her father found out, she would be extremely embarrassed!

“Anna, are you okay?” The neighbor server asked, his face full of worry.

“Hmm, I’m ok, Clay.” Anna turned her head to answer Clay. She still had a beautiful smile, as usual. People couldn’t see how she was suffering inside.

“If there’s anything wrong, you can tell me.” Clay looked at Anna comfortingly. “Shouldn’t you change shifts? I think he’ll keep looking for you! Changed the name while working here too. Don’t use the old name.”

Clay seemed to think of something. He looked seriously at Anna, advising her to change her name and move on to an extra shift.

Anna heard that, taking a sip of Coke, she felt that the idea was not bad.

“Okay, then go ahead, I’ll tell the owner for you!” Anna nodded at Clay, hoping he could say a few words to the innkeeper, after her salary was deducted, she was a little scared when she looked at the owner.

“Okay, I’ll tell you later.” Clay gestured ‘ok’, smiled at Anna friendly, “Hmm, it’s too late, go home and drink a lot of warm water. It will help you more relax!”

Anna nodded in response, stood up, sighed, waved goodbye to Clay, and trampled out the door.

...

In the class, the teacher’s voice introducing the theory of math resounded in the classroom. Today Anna and Brandon’s class learned about the Pythagorean theorem.

Brandon was lying on the table as usual, but something was strange today. He could feel someone’s ardent gaze on him. Although people would also look at him, today’s feeling was much more special.

Hmm, looks like that look came from the bookworm next to him? What’s her name? I forgot, maybe Anna?

Brandon turned his face in Anna’s direction, taking a serious look at her for the first time. She was looking at the board, but why did he still get the feeling she was looking at him?

Looking at Anna for a moment, Brandon sighed, and continued to sleep with his face down on the table. Never mind, I must hallucinate!

Anna was taking notes on the blackboard, feeling Brandon turn her head to look at her, a little disgusted in her heart. She frowned to ignore Brandon. It’s best to pretend that we don’t know each other. What if he finds out she works in a bar?

At this moment, the math teacher stood on the board looking down at the class, her eyes fixed on Anna and Brandon. Lecturing on formulas, she wanted to call on someone to read the textbook examples aloud.

“Brandon, stand up and read the first example.” Ms. Andrea said.

Brandon was dreaming in the clouds, was called by Andrea. He was a little surprised, out of habit. He looked at Anna, asked.

‘To what part?’

But not in his guess. Anna pretended not to hear anything. She pursed her lips and took notes.

‘Bookworm, didn’t you hear me calling?’

Brandon asked again. He frowned. What’s wrong with her? Are your ears deaf? Calling out loud but not listening?

Anna was still the same, sitting there, her stony gaze moving between the blackboard and the white paper, never looking at Brandon at all, not even for a moment.

“What’s up Brandon? Don’t you know what page the example is on? You think if you study well, you don’t need to listen to me anymore, right?” Andrea glared at Brandon, eyes filled with fury.

“No, it’s not…” Brandon just spoke up, interrupted by teacher Andrea.

“Not what?” Ms Andrea looks too angry, her eyes full of fires!

    The space was silent. The girl asked Anna to stand in a corner and start calling someone. “Hmm, she said Brandon hates her and forbids her to touch her body.” “Yes, that’s right, she’s very emphasized.” “She even asked us to ask Brandon to verify.” The girl kept describing what Anna had said. It filled the entire room with only her voice and Anna’s deep internal voice. Clack! The other girl disconnects the call, then looks at the other girls.“Okay, she told us to go.” “You, watch out!” The girl fiercely glanced at Anna, raising her voice threateningly. After they left, Anna lay on the floor of the bathroom, she began crying loudly in silent space, each sob getting louder over time, the small sound becoming clearer than usual. ‘Why do they always hit me?’This sentence appeared in Anna’s mind ever since there was no way to erase it. She was very sorry, also very sad. At this moment, the entire world seemed to turn its back on her. Anna just lay there, approximately thirty mi

    Anna attended to Vivia’s words, taken aback. Anna is a bit surprised by the actions of this girl after what she did. “Why did you decide to find me? You can do what you think, ignore that phone call and continue eating your noodles! I wonder why you did that!” After hearing this question, she thought for a while. After a long silence, Vivia spoke up. “Hey, Anna.” “I have helped people who have been bullied before. You’re the second, Anna.” “I saved another girl in the same middle school. She’s an unattractive and quiet girl.” “When I first met her, I was not impressed. Only when I saw her getting beaten up by higher grade students, and being bullied, did I want to help her.” “But when I helped her out of the bullying scene, I was returned to her place.” “It’s ridiculous, huh?!” “But it’s the truth.” Vivia showed a tart smile. Anna listened to Vivia tell. Her heart was a little sad. What a poor girl, Vivia! Anna said nothing and remained silent. She wanted to continue heari

    “I don’t want to change myself just for other people. I want to live for myself, no matter how people change, no matter how people treat me, I will still help people, in the way that I think is right!” For a moment, Anna seemed to feel a great motivation from Vivia. She never thought that, although she was just a small student, inside Vivia was such an enormous flower of freedom. The two girls sit and talk for a long time. Both feel the sympathy that the other has for them. Their interests are the opposite, but still can’t stop them from becoming closer. “You don’t know. Actually, my dream is to become a knight.” Vivia grinned, “Isn’t that very weird?” “Wow, that sounds strange.” Anna tilted her head to look at Vivia, “Why don’t you want to be a princess but a knight?” “Knights look cooler.” Vivia blushed and turned away. “Strange. I feel very comfortable talking to you.” Vivia opened a bottle of beer, “As for just now when I hesitated to come to find you, I’m sorry.” Vivia was a

    After eating, Vivia was satisfied and wiped her mouth. She loves Medrano school to death! In other schools, food can only be eaten in the cafeteria, and bringing food to class, especially greasy dishes like spaghetti, is completely banned. But here it is different because it is a private school, and the amount of investment is a lot, so the service is also more diverse. “Hmm, wait, Anna, I remember you saying, do you work part-time outside of school hours?” Vivia drank apple juice, suddenly asked. “Yes, what’s wrong?” Anna answered while eating, not knowing what Vivia wanted to do. “I am curious. I just want to get to know you better.” Vivia propped her chin. “What’s wrong? Is that job difficult to say?” Anna sighed in her mind, “Nothing. I can tell you about my work. But don’t tell anyone else, Vivia. It is a job that is despised by everyone, especially the students in this school.” Vivia nodded, looking expectantly at Anna. “I work as a server at a bar.

She leaned closer to Anna, asking questions.‘Didn’t she say she was going to Vivia’s house? Why would Vivia ask that? Could it be that Anna didn’t come to Vivia’s house last night?’ Brandon, as usual, was still asleep on the table. But as soon

    Brandon summarized the story he encountered today for Anna. But Anna assessed, compared to when talking with Ms. Bunny, Brandon seems to use less emotion in her sentences.‘As expected of men, they only like attractive people.’ The bunny suit that Anna wore while serving in the bar was quite sexy, and Brandon liked Ms. Bunny like that, so Anna guessed Brandon was quite fond of sexy girls.“Huh.” Brandon didn’t say anything. He just glanced at Anna, completely quieting her down. Okay, he’s a patient. Give him a moment, Anna told herself.“So, what do you want?” In the middle of a space with the only sound coming from the TV, the content Brandon suddenly said startled Anna.“What?” Anna still did not quite understand what Brandon meant. She felt that she never seemed to fully understand the sentences Brandon said.“I ask you again, what do you want?” Brandon repeated, his expression still as calm as ever.“Sorry, but I still don’t quite understand what you’re saying?” To put it bluntly,

    “Hey, who cares about you? Bullshit!” Anna nodded after hearing the first sentence, but when she heard the second sentence, she glared. For some reason, Brandon found Ann at that moment so cute.Brandon smiled, then the two walked silently to the house Brandon had described earlier.Although it was pitch black, under the gentle light of the street lamps, Anna could still glimpse the house with dark orange tiles, the four walls covered with moss, and the moss-like vines, constantly crawling to different positions. The house seemed to be quite old and must have existed here for a long time.Not far from the house was a large mulberry tree, vines winding around its trunk. Some foliage points up to the sky, and some fall back down, looking very lively. Sometimes there is wind, and the leaves sway like scared something.“It’s an old house, isn’t it?” Anna stood in the distance, squinting at the front. “It looks like the house was built in the twentieth century, around 1485 onwards, right?

    After drinking a wake up soup, Brandon gradually regained consciousness. He rubbed his head, and tiredly lay on the bed, reminiscing about the whole day.Suddenly remembering the pink piece of paper that had been returned, Brandon jumped, opened his backpack, and took out a very wrinkled pink piece of paper.‘Maybe she have solved that problem?’ Brandon speculated.But before long, the entire detailed solution of the Olympic problem that gave Brandon a headache was written on the back of the piece of paper.‘Really?’ Brandon still couldn’t believe this fact.“Hmm…”Brandon mused, if that’s the case, then this means he has to fulfill his promise to do something for Anna.Really? Does he have to do something for her?The joy of meeting Ms. Bunny disappeared in an instant, Brandon thought for a long time. In his mind was the image of Anna with a malicious expression asking him to do shameful things.Although Brandon had anticipated this, the thought of doing something for Anna still made

    “You know, Peter is my closest friend. I felt very ashamed when I saw my mother hurt him.” Brandon sighed in a voice filled with sadness. “I know he won’t notice, but I hate my mother. She is authoritarian.”Brandon was in a bad mood that day, and finally, Anna understood why.“Is your friend getting better?” Anna asked.Brandon nodded. “He wasn’t badly hurt. His face and hands were hurt, but most of the debris went to the outside of his jacket.”“Maybe Peter will go to school soon.” Brandon thought, then added.Anna listened. She sympathized with Brandon and understood why he ignored the note she had sent him this morning.However, Anna must be very careful, in case Brandon knows Bunny is Anna, his classmate.Not that Anna couldn’t tell Brandon who she was, but she didn’t want too many people to know she worked here, especially as Brandon was also her classmate.Brandon and Anna had been here for two hours.
