Chapter 1423Alison looked at Luis in embarrassment, but now her eyes were so flickering that she could not see clearly Luis's face at all. She only saw him looking at her. Luis seemed to be smiling, but then she found he was not smiling. Whether he smiled or not, Alison felt ashamed of herself. She just drank some fruit wine. She was fine before, but she became more and more top-heavy when she got home. She didn’t feel very uncomfortable. She was even conscious, but she couldn't stand up or sit up straight, and she was even dangling when she walked. Alison bit her lower lip and saw the armrest of the sofa beside her. She moved over and stood up, holding the armrest. She glanced at Luis and said nothing, but her sparkling eyes seemed to say, "You see, I can walk by myself." The ideal was beautiful, but the reality was a little cruel. Without the support, Alison felt that she could not see the way clearly. The stairs were just ahead, but she staggered. Luis followed her and did
Chapter 1424For the first time, she participated in a class activity, as she had been rejected by her classmates since junior high school. Even if she wanted to integrate herself into the class, some of her classmates always scolded and bullied her deliberately.While Alison was thinking about these things, she began to miss her grandma.She hadn't recalled her grandma for a long time, and she murmured, "Grandma, I’m very happy today! My classmates like me, and they don’t reject me! I played games with them and drank some fruit wine. It tasted good, so I drank some, and then I got drunk. It was a little embarrassing to make a show of myself in front of Luis and Blaze."Alison didn’t want to sleep, and she murmured for some time.Luis came out of the bathroom. He was about to turn off the light when he found that the light in Alison's room was still on.Frowning, he looked down at the time on his phone. It was past midnight.‘Hasn’t Alison fallen asleep yet?’Luis walked out of
Chapter 1425It was the first time Alison had gotten drunk. When she woke up the next day, she didn't feel very uncomfortable. After all, the wine was not strong.But there were light smells of wine, cream, and roasted meat from her clothes because she made a cake and ate roasted meat yesterday. The mixed smells were not pleasant.Alison sat on the bed for a while, thinking back to last night.She sighed.'Why did I say many stupid things when I was drunk?'Alison's face instantly turned red. She didn't know how to face Luis and the others.Just as she was thinking about these things, her phone suddenly rang.Alison was stunned for a moment, glanced at the cell phone on the desk not far away, and hurriedly got up to pick it up.The call was from Alexa. Alison said, "Alexa?""You're awake. How are you feeling?"Alison pursed her lips in embarrassment. "I just woke up. I'm okay.""That's good! You have a low tolerance. Don't drink often in the future."Alison felt awkward. "
Chapter 1426The maid served coffee and pastries. Alison took her seat, took the fork from the maid's hand, and thanked her. Alison's stomach rumbled so loudly that everyone heard it.The maid smiled and said, "It looks like Alison is indeed hungry."Holding his cup, Luis sat down across from Alison. He was silent, but his gaze spoke of everything.Alison lowered her head, wishing the group would open up and swallow her.Luis looked at her and gave an imperceptible smile.It took a long time for the blush on Alison's face to fade away.She looked up at the boy across the table. Luis, who had just finished his food, noticed her gaze and squinted at her. "Anything?"Alison shook her head, too embarrassed to say sorry even though she wanted to.She was so foolish last night. She got drunk but pretended that she didn't. The thought of it made her face burn.Luis looked at her for a while. Alison remained silent, so he turned around and went upstairs.It was summer vacation, an
Chapter 1427Alison nodded and walked forward with Luis.The last time she returned here was because her grandmother passed away. The village was far away from the town. After her grandmother passed away, she always stayed at school or went to do part-time work. After all, no one waited for her at home since then.She dreamed about her grandmother last night and thought that she didn't take the small box that her grandmother left for her, so she returned here this time.It was her grandmother's dowry. When Alison was a little kid, Alison's grandmother said that she would give it to Alison when Alison got married.Alison had seen the things in the box. They were a pair of gold earrings, a gold bracelet and a gold necklace.When Alison was going to go to high school, her grandmother planned to hock the dowry to a gold shop in the town secretly for her tuition.Alison came home that day because the school was out and got the news from a neighbor, so she chased after her grandmother
Chapter 1428Luis looked around the small living room. Then, Alison came out of the doorway. She was holding a basin of water and towels. "Luis, wait a moment. I'll be able to wipe it off soon."Luis threw the two backpacks on his back onto that wooden chair. "Do you have any more cleaning cloth?"Alison was stunned for a moment. Then, she said, "I'll wipe. The room hasn't been cleaned for almost a year, so it's pretty dirty.""Where's the cleaning cloth?" Luis asked again.Alison had to point ahead and say, "There's a little well in there. There's one next to it."Before she could finish her words, Luis was already heading inside.Soon, he carried a bucket of water straight out. And some water splashed on the ground.The floor was made of red bricks. Because the room had not been cleaned, when he poured the water out, he saw a layer of dust floating on the water's surface.Luis was a bit of a clean freak. He frowned as he looked at the dust on the surface of the water.Aliso
Chapter 1429It had been raining for quite a long time. When Alison was about to finish making the leavened dough, the rain eased off a bit.At that moment, Luis was making a phone call to Blaze in the small living room. He was telling Blaze that it was raining heavily today, so he could not return to the city until tomorrow.As he was talking, Alison came out of the kitchen with an old umbrella.Luis glanced at her and put his phone down. "Where are you going?""I'm going to get something to eat from the old lady next door.""I'll go with you."Alison smiled as she shook her head. "You don't have to do that. Luis, she's right next door. You can just call out to me from inside the courtyard."She said as she held her umbrella and ran out of the room.Luis frowned as he watched her leave the house. After a long time, he picked up the phone again and put it to his ear. "We'll go back tomorrow afternoon. Alison wants to visit her grandmother's grave."When Blaze heard Luis' word
Chapter 1430"What can I do?"Alison had just made a fire. Hearing Luis's words, she turned around and found that Luis had come out. She looked at him and winked, "I can do it. Go and play games."She suddenly remembered one thing and said, "But the signal here is bad."Luis saw two cucumbers in the basket and asked, "Can I help you?"Alison nodded. Luis walked over and took a knife to peel the cucumbers.Alison didn't say anything.It was getting late, so she needed to cook the food.Alison could cook when she was about seven years old. Preparing dinner was easy for her.After they had dinner, Alison found her former junior high school uniform and planned to wear it tonight.Anyway, the clothes would dry early tomorrow morning in this weather.But what about Luis?She hesitated and said, "Luis, there are no clothes you can wear here.""Don't worry about me. Go to bed first."Alison was really tired today, so she took a quick bath and went to sleep quickly.With the door
