Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
William was speechless. He said to the boss, “Then add another plate of live prawns.”
The boss was stunned. “But it’s not time to eat yet, and the ingredients are…”
William took out his meal card. “I’ll pay double.”
The boss: “Alright, it’ll be ready soon!”
Amelia’s eyes widened. Wow, she looked at William in admiration. “Brother is amazing!”
For some reason, William felt a sense of light pride. He turned his head and snorted. “Of course.”
After a while, the hot mutton and roasted lamb leg were served. Amelia took out the turtle from her bag, grabbed a prawn, and handed it to Grandpa Turtle. Then, she handed the apple slices on the table to Seven. Seven held the apple slices in his mouth and jumped onto the table along Amelia’s arm. He stood with Grandpa Turtle and sat down to eat.
After settling Grandpa Turtle and the parrot Seven’s lunch, Amelia reached out and grabbed a roasted lamb leg. She said happily, “Mia will eat too!”
William frowned. “Wait.”
Amelia looked up in confusion and saw William pick up a disposable glove at the side and put it on Amelia’s hand. Amelia smiled. “Thank you, Brother.” As she spoke, she stared at the roasted lamb leg on the table, and a drop of saliva dripped from the corner of her mouth.
William was speechless. He picked up a tissue in disdain and wiped Amelia’s saliva. He swore that he was not going to take care of Amelia. but it would be too embarra.s.sing if others saw his sister drooling when she ate.
Amelia nibbled on the roasted lamb leg. When William saw that she was eating happily, he subconsciously looked at her. He peeled prawns and boiled mutton for her. He did not even take a few bites before he focused on serving Amelia. As Amelia ate, she urged William incoherently, “Brother, Brother, eat too…”
William said with annoyance, “Alright, eat your food. Hurry up and finish it. We have literature later.”
Amelia: “Yes, yes, yes!” However, she remembered that Brother William did not like literature cla.s.ses. Brother Lucas liked to read and he liked literature cla.s.ses, but Brother William liked strange numbers and liked to calculate in his notebook.
On the other side, Amelia was eating extremely happily. In cla.s.s, without Amelia and Elmer’s suppression, the vain ghost above Evelyn’s head became even more unscrupulous. Evelyn, who was originally sitting upright, felt that her back was so tired, as if she was carrying a huge mountain. At this moment, she felt a kick on her chair and turned around.
The student in the back seat was shocked by Evelyn and asked in a low voice,
“Evelyn, are you alright? Did you not sleep well last night?”
Evelyn shook her head. Just as she turned around, someone kicked the chair again. At the same time, a small piece of paper was handed over. She unfolded it and saw that it was written crookedly: “Eve, I want to tell you that I like you. Although I’m not good-looking, I have a heart that truly likes you. My name is Ethan Grant. I love you. If you want to be with me too, please respond to me below, okay?”
How could a first-year elementary school student know what liking was? He just wanted to express his good impression of Evelyn because she was good-looking and popular in the cla.s.s. He couldn’t even finish a sentence, and many words were replaced with phonetic symbols. Evelyn didn’t like Ethan, but she wouldn’t tell Ethan directly that she didn’t like him. Instead, she kept Ethan hanging. She enjoyed the feeling of being sought after. She wrote the words “pay attention in cla.s.s” on the note. Just as she was about to pa.s.s it to Ethan, the French teacher suddenly turned around. Evelyn could only use her hand to hide the note.
The vain ghost on top of Evelyn’s head suddenly sn.i.g.g.e.red. He whispered in Evelyn’s ear, “Being liked is a very honorable thing. Come, raise the note and loudly tell everyone that Ethan is confessing to you.”
A trace of confusion flashed across Evelyn’s eyes. Right on the heels of that, she raised her hand and said loudly, “Teacher, Ethan pa.s.sed me a note in cla.s.s!”
Ethan, who was sitting in the back row, panicked and dropped the pen in his hand.
“How dare you pa.s.s a note!” The French teacher slammed her textbook on the podium. Her stomach was filled with anger from William’s words just now. Who still dared to provoke her now?
Evelyn unfolded the note and said loudly, “Evelyn, I want to tell you that I like you. Although I’m not good-looking, I have a heart that truly likes you. My name is Ethan Grant. I love you. If you want to be with me too, please respond to me below, okay?” She read out the contents of the note word for word, then raised her chin like a proud peac.o.c.k..
