The pimply boy covered his crotch and cried out. The yellow-haired boy fell to the ground and felt dizzy.

"Don't just stand there. Run. We'll be in trouble when they come to themselves!" Carrying her schoolbag, Alina got Sheffield and ran towards the school gate.

After running a long way, Sheffield stammered, "You, you lied to them!"

Tugging at Sheffield with one hand and carrying the schoolbag with the other, Alina replied while running, "Of course I'm lying to them. How can I have some fun with them?"

Hearing this, Sheffield had mixed feelings.

When they reached the school gate, Alina looked back to see that no one was running after them. Then she let go of Sheffield's hand, panting, and said, "It seems that they won't catch up for the time being. Let's go home."

"Why did you come to our school?" As they walked side by side, Sheffield glanced at Alina and immediately looked away.

Alina smiled awkwardly, "It was still early after the exam, so I walked here... What a coincidence, isn't it?"

'I'm not that naive!' he thought. Sheffield didn't believe it. But at this moment, he had a complicated mood, so he didn't go on asking.

They walked silently all the way to the bus stop. Waiting at the bus stop, Alina suddenly asked worriedly, "What about Monday? Will they take revenge on you?"

Hearing this, Sheffield snorted and said bluntly, "What do you think?"

"Then you will be in great danger! How about telling Dad to transfer you to another school or get you two bodyguards?"

"... The bus is coming." Sheffield rolled his eyes at her, got on the bus, swiped the card, and went to the rear.

There were not many people on the bus, so there were many empty seats in the rear.

Alina followed up, "I'm serious. Don't ignore me!"

"That girl, don't forget the coin!" When Alina went to the middle of the bus, the driver reminded her to put in the coin.

The passengers in the bus turned to look at Alina, who was embarrassed. She went back and put in a coin.

Then she walked to Sheffield's seat with resentment. "Why don't you swipe your card for me?"

Sheffield looked indifferent. "Why do you want to use my card when you have money with you?"

Alas... 'Brat! How dare you make me be watched by so many people?!'

Alina pushed him and sat on his seat. She poked his shoulder and accused him, "Sheffield, don't you have a conscience? I saved you just now. Will you die if you swipe your card for me?"

Sheffield glared at her with dissatisfaction. He moved to an inside seat. But Alina prodded him back against the wall of the bus. He opened his mouth and then closed it again. Then he simply turned to look out of the window.

From the window glass, he could clearly see the expression on her face. Disappointment was all over her face.

Sheffield was a little confused. She wasn't angry. Why was she disappointed? What was to be disappointed at?

She did so much for him, but Sheffield was still indifferent to her. To be honest, Alina was a little depressed. She didn't know what she could do to make him accept her from heart.

They didn't say anything on the way. Neither of them said a word when they walked to home.

This evening, the whole family had dinner together. Alina was quiet from the beginning to the end. Eric and Wendy thought she didn't do well on the exam, so she was in a bad mood.
