It was September in North City. The blazing summer had passed. However, the clingy, lingering heat from summer had yet to dissipate.At that time, an unofficial 3x3 basketball match was going on in the First North City High School’s basketball court. The team in blue was one man down, sitting on the bench as he watched anxiously. The blue team had two players left on the field. Two against three. The match would be a confirmed loss.The red team’s leader pointed at his opponent and announced s
The scorching sun hung over their heads.Seanna felt that she could pass out at any moment. If not for her inability to reject the class teacher’s assignment, she would never come over to the basketball court under the scorching heat even if offered a hundred bucks.Just as she was thinking about the geometry questions for that afternoon’s math class, she felt stumped. Spatial geometry was her weakness, but it was also the section that awarded the most points in her college entrance exam. She
“Of course. I can’t wait to be as far away from Madam Wood as well.”Cecelia stormed out of the ward.Seanna sat on the hospital bed, holding onto the medical insurance card. Her fingers turned white while her eyes turned red like a rabbit that would strike at any moment.Jonathan coughed lightly beside the door, then walked in, acting as though nothing happened. He spoke to her calmly in his usual tone, “Little girl, how are you feeling? You didn’t turn stupid, right?”Jonathan reached out
After Jonathan exited the hospital, he did not return to school. He skipped class for the entire afternoon and went to an internet cafe to play games with Wayne Clark and his gang. When he was about to head home, the sky had turned dark.Jonathan posted a status on whatsapp. [Sigh, after a day of school, I’m having a headache. Time to go home.]When Wayne saw that status, he doubled over laughing.[Wayne: Bro, you actually study? This is unheard of.][Jimmy: Was that person gaming with us in
Within the black silhouette, it was one against five. The five thugs were sent flying out of the alley by Jonathan with a single punch each.On the dirty floor, the five thugs were stacked up like pancakes as they let out painful moans like pigs in the slaughterhouse.Five minutes passed.They were knocked out, absolutely trampled.Jonathan bent over to pick up his school uniform and dusted it. He flipped his hand and dangled the uniform over his right shoulder, then picked up his black back
Jonathan obediently obliged, “Yes, of course. Uhm… Dad, I don’t have the money to pay for that little girl’s medical expenses. Can you lend me your supplementary card?”Shayne frowned, then shot him a disgusted look. “I already got my own house when I was your age. Why are you asking me for a supplementary card?”“Yes, yes, yes, Dad, you’re the best. How can I compare to you? Treat the supplementary card as a loan to me. I’ll pay you back after I graduate.”Shayne shot a look at him. “I’ll pa
Due to some reasons, the story will be ending here.That is to say, I’ll be bidding all of you farewell here.This title had started back in May of 2018 and went all the way to 31st December 2020, finally ending with the extras of Yanny.It came to a total of two years and seven months.It was quite a long journey.Thank you, everyone for your support along the way.Goodbye.
“Verian Mont, 21 years old, a graduate from North City University, never been in a relationship, healthy…”The man sitting across her closed the file after reading the document. His eyebrows twitched, and he asked, “Are you sure you want to be a surrogate?”Verian Mont clutched the hem of her dress with looks of worry and anxiety. Then, she said, “I’m very sure. I need this money.”“How much do you need?”Startled, she muttered softly and said, “10…10 million.”His frown deepened. “This must be kept a secret. Thus, you are not allowed to leave this place throughout the 10 months of pregnancy until birth. Also, you are prohibited from contacting anyone. Are you able to do it?”Verian Mont’s knuckles turned white from clenching her fists too hard. She took a deep breath. Trembling, she said, “I…, I will promise you, but on one condition.”“Say it.”“After signing this agreement, I want 10 million to be deposited into this account as soon as I get pregnant. I need it urgently.”‘Hah, I r
