16When I returned to the studio the next day, I told Charmaine and Leticia about the whole thing, including what happened at the Freshers' Night Gala.After hearing that, Leticia rolled up her sleeves and yelled that she would teach Stanley and Sienna a lesson for me.Charmaine said with a cold face, "It's time to retaliate and slap some people, but you have to find a good way." Then, she handed me an entry form.The entry form was for the school's annual fashion exhibition.She looked into my eyes just like she looked at Stanley and spoke to me that summer. Her tone was still as firm as before. "Jessalyn, you have to face some obstacles by yourself. Do you dare to do so?"I finally looked her in the eye and nodded.I had to say that Charmaine was a really ruthless person. She used my original pearl-beaded mermaid dress as a design for the competition. However, she changed the white silk to black and the graceful fishtail design to an ancient Gregan Ionic-style hem.With her s
Six Years Later (Extra 1)Jessalyn arrived home at 11:00 p.m.As soon as she got home, she was hugged by Zachariah from behind when she changed her shoes at the entrance. He sobbed, "Ms. Gaffner, you left me alone..."Jessalyn struggled to change her shoes under the burden of Zachariah. Her dimples could not help but deepen, but she still wanted to tease him. "What's wrong? Was my show bad?"Zachariah hurriedly raised his hands to prove his identity as a true fan. "No, no. Ms. Gaffner, your program is particularly nice. You are beautiful, good at commenting, and professional."Jessalyn smiled more deeply and pinched Zachariah's cheek.Since college, Jessalyn and Charmaine often participated in activities together. Charmaine was a designer, while Jessalyn was a model. Jessalyn accumulated influence in the industry bit by bit, starting from the competition in a small magazine.In six years, they also created their own women's boutique brand. At that moment, the brand had become fa
Author: Zhen Zhu Niao I never thought this scene would appear in front of me.A tall man stood before me, holding the pink lingerie I had just taken off with his slender ring finger.My jeans were halfway also down my thighs.1On Friday, I had just left the company where I did my internship and rushed home by subway during the evening rush hour, ready to sleep all day and night.As soon as I arrived at the entrance of my place, I saw a familiar figure.It was my ex-boyfriend.He seemed to have sensed my presence as he paused the action of pushing the elevator button before turning around suspiciously.In a split second, I jumped quickly into the bushes next to me.After waiting for five minutes to make sure the coast was clear, I slowly got up and patted the leaves off my body.I simply could not stand men. They were annoying. We had broken up, but he still came to pester me.I took out my phone and sent a message to my best friend, Savannah Harrison.Me: [Savvy, beautif
3That night, I had a dream that I had gone back to the old days when Rowan was still young. I tried my best to be nice to him just so that he could be my little boyfriend when he grew up.When I woke up, I felt the dried saliva at the corners of my mouth.I turned on my phone and noticed that I'd received a message from Savannah.Savannah: [I treated you as my best friend, but you want to be my sister-in-law? It's not that you can't, but my brother is very insensitive. He has never shown interest in women, and he hasn't dated anyone yet. Besides, have you forgotten what you used to look like in front of him at my house?]I tried to recall. It seemed that when I was at their house, I was either crying while watching dramas or scrambling around for snacks as well as teasing Rowan from time to time.I always wore a loose T-shirt and pajamas, which seemed to be a little sloppy.I got nervous, worrying that Rowan didn't have a good impression of me.I was upset and kicked the quilt
5After learning a lesson, I didn't make a fool of myself over the next few days. I stayed in bed to recover from my injuries. During this period, I still couldn't help but covet Rowan's beauty and figure.After a week, I could walk freely. As long as I didn't exert too much force, it would not hurt so much.I happened to see a notice in the company group chat that there was an ice-breaking activity in the company tomorrow night to welcome a group of employees who had just joined during the summer vacation.On the last day of my leave, I brought my friend to the mall to buy a dress. It was a small event after all.On the night of the event, I put on the dress, put on light makeup, and looked in the mirror, feeling quite satisfied.When I went out, I saw Rowan holding a glass of water and staring at me blankly."What's wrong?"I pulled the hem of the skirt with embarrassment."You look good."His cheeks were suspiciously ruddy, and then he shifted his gaze to my thighs. His ey
6When Rowan first saw Priscilla coming back with his sister, he didn't think too much of it. He only thought that Priscilla was beautiful.He thought that her character was gentle and quiet, but he didn't expect that she was an unusual girl since she could become a good friend to his sister.So when Rowan heard Priscilla shouting in the study, he was shocked. Except for his sister, it was the first time he met such a girl.Rowan closed the door irritably, which was pushed open after a while."This is your brother? He's so cute."Before Rowan could react, his cheeks had been pinched and rubbed by Priscilla.Rowan didn't like it very much, but he was introverted and didn't expressly reject Priscilla, so Priscilla thought Rowan was enjoying it.Every time she came over, she would play with him like he was a little pet.After some time, Priscilla treated Rowan as her brother and ordered him around.Ostensibly, Priscilla would help Savannah to tutor him in his homework, but in fa
Author: San Yao Si I had a crush on Matthew, who was my neighbor, for a long time.One day, Matthew took the initiative to find me and introduced his younger brother to me.I smiled bitterly. Everyone knew that his half-brother was the person he hated the most.1In the hot summer, there was a basketball game on the central court.Everyone was concerned about the result of the competition, except me. I was keeping my eyes glued on one person.Matthew Turner, wearing the No. 7 shirt, quickly took the ball from his teammates and scored a perfect three-point shot.He smiled, but he shook his left hand subconsciously.I was worried as he might have injured his old wound.I have followed him for many years, and I could read and understand every tiny expression on his face.I quickly took out the medicine in my bag, and I began to anxiously hope that his game would end soon.Finally, the whistle was blown and the game ended, and I rushed in first."Matthew, your coach is here."
4I was a little surprised to see Matthew."Why didn't you tell me that you moved?"He was wearing a light gray shirt and still had an elegant posture. The high-end fabric outlined his athletic muscles, which could still be seen clearly even from a distance."I sent you a message." Seeing that I didn't speak, Matthew continued to ask with dissatisfaction in his eyes."My phone died."I came up with an excuse, but Matthew ruthlessly exposed me."Don't you carry a power bank with you? Can't you charge it?"I mocked myself inwardly for spoiling him."My new bag is too small to hold it. Besides, people rarely contact me for something urgent."I pretended to answer casually, which caused Matthew to frown immediately. "Yvie, something is wrong with you."When he called me like that, my heart suddenly skipped a beat.Matthew changed his tone and asked, "How are you doing recently?"He was implying something else, and I knew it in an instant."Are you talking about me and your br
