'Didn't he tell you?' With a smile on his face, Peter pretended to be surprised, 'you're right. He's different from me. He doesn't like to ask for credit.'
She was confused. Is he talking about Bill? She wondered?
No matter what that person did, it was for interests. How could he do something good without making a fuss?
She didn't answer, but her mind was like a mess, pretending to stir coffee to hide her emotions.
With an expression of understanding, Peter didn't debunk her lie. Instead, he flirted with the landlady leisurely.
After a while, two students passed by them.
The boy walked in front of them with an arrogant face. 'Go and order something for me. A cup of black coffee without sugar, two pieces of cake, a stack of Elvis cakes, and a bottle of milk ice cream...'
The submissive girl behind him interrupted him, 'you don't like sweet food, do you?
The boy stopped, raised his hand and knocked on the girl's forehead. He said fiercely, 'it's none of your business. I want to eat today, okay? If I can't finish it, you can eat all of it. Do you hear me?'
The girl covered her head in grievance. 'Oh... I see.'
'You'd better hurry up,' the boy said fiercely. 'If you still waste time, I won't help you with your study. And, ask the waiter to bring the bill later. Don't let others think that I'm a gigolo!'
'It doesn't matter,' the girl said sincerely. 'You help me with my study. I'll treat you this time as the tutoring fee!'
'Aooo!'
The girl was hit again, but she didn't dare to refute this time. She held her tongue and went to the front desk to order.
The boy chose a seat and sat leisurely waiting for the girl.
'Are all boys nowadays so fierce?' Said Andy curiously.
'Fierce?' Peter laughed, 'don't you think it's sweet?'
With her eyes wide open, she doubted that he was blind.
'Have you ever seen any boy who likes desserts?' Looking at him helplessly, Peter said, 'or do you mean that when you go to school, you not only don't charge for the lesson, but also treat others to dinner?'
Hearing what he said, Andy was in a trance.
'But it seems that the boy dislikes girls...' said Andy innocently.
She didn’t know it. The only person she had a crush on was Jack. In the end, they broke up. Her understanding of love was really limited.
'Girl, no one will have the patience to eat at the same table with someone he hates, let alone help others with their lessons.' Peter raised one of his eyebrows and hinted madly.
Andy smiled awkwardly, 'does he like that girl?'
'BINGO!' Peter snapped his fingers and said, 'you finally come to the point. He likes her!'
'Ha ha!' Andy almost spat out a mouthful of coffee. She quickly took out a piece of paper to wipe it and complained, 'are you kidding me? He likes her but bullies her? He doesn't know how to be tender to a woman...'
'You are the one who doesn't understand.' Peter stood up and pushed her forehead across the table.
'Ouch!' 'What are you doing? Stop it!'
'I'll let you feel that I'm bullying you. Did you feel grieved just now?' Said Peter with a snicker.
Andy frowned, as if she didn't feel angry.
'It's different.' She said stubbornly.
'Why is it different?' 'Many things are not as simple as you see. Some men express their love in this way. They always think for each other, but they don't want to suffer losses. In the end, they are the ones who suffer losses.'
She warned herself not to think too much. But the more she controlled herself, the stronger the thought became, which disturbed her peace.
However, the waiter served another dessert. When she looked at the cake, she thought of the girl's happy face and the boy's 'bullying' to her. Naturally, the name of Bill popped up again.
Squinting his charming eyes, Peter didn't say anything more. He had finished what he should say and done. The rest could only depend on themselves.
——
When Andy got off the taxi, she was in a trance.
Who would have thought that there was really a male Bodhisattva in the world, and most importantly, the male Bodhisattva that protected him was actually Bill!
She couldn't imagine how to face him in the future.
She was good at showing her anger. Image a scene that she was grateful to that icy face, how weird it was.
'Andy.'
It was not until Edward called her twice that she came to her senses and found him waiting at the door of the apartment.
'Why are you here?' Although she was confused, she didn't hate him.
She knew that he was different from Britney. He was a good man and a hero. There was no reason for him to be hated because of an unreasonable mother.
'Andy, marry me.'
Edward suddenly took out the ring from his pocket, knelt on one knee in front of her, and held the ring very seriously.
Andy was completely stunned. She didn't know when she gave him the wrong signal, which made him feel that he had reached the point of getting married.
At the intersection, a person, who was walking towards them, stopped, and his black eyes instantly darkened.
