Couldn’t Hide the Feelings - Chapter 82
Following his movements, Ashley lowered her eyes and stared at the bright lock screen interface.
She raised her head again, her lips moved, and when she wanted to say something, Jacob had already stood up.
The eyes staring at her were gentle and ambiguous.
This row was full of students.
Noticing the movement here, they couldn’t help watching it.
Ashley didn’t know most people.
The several students sitting next to them were all brought by the same mentor and can be regarded as acquainted with each other after they have met several times.
But Ashley was familiar with none of them, so they haven’t seen Jacob either.
It seemed that Jacob just came to remind her of replying.
He nodded his head, took a step back, and turned his head back to his original position.
After he left, the classmate next to Ashley leaned over again, “What’s going on? Is that handsome guy here to flirt with you? ”
“But…”
The classmate’s words changed, “that handsome guy looks like a playboy.”
“Moreover, look at his face, you can tell at a glance that he is a scumbag.”
The classmate slurped, with a touch of admiration, “I’ve never seen such a standard scumbag face.”
Hearing this, Ashley turned to look at her, looking complicated.
“What’s wrong”?
“That,” Ashley couldn’t help saying, “is my boyfriend.”
Silent for a few seconds, seemed to feel a little awkward, the classmate smiled awkwardly, forcibly, and bluntly explained, “I mean, he is hot.”
Ashley didn’t mind much either. After all, Jacob did feel that way.
She smiled and said softly, “It’s all right, I’m not angry.”
Her classmate was curious, “How do you know him?”
Ashley replied, “My brother’s friend.”
“Well, I want to have a brother.” The classmate envied.
The two had a few more conversations.
Ashley began to concentrate on talking to Jacob on Whatsapp.
Ashley:[when did you get here?]
Jacob:[this morning.]
Ashley:[what are you doing here?]
Jacob:[I heard that you said you would come to attend this award ceremony. My previous company was also invited, so I came by the way in place of my boss.]
Ashley was not very happy:[you told me yesterday that you are not free.]
Put her in a bad mood all day.
Jacob:[surprise?]
Jacob:[are you mad?]
She stared at his words for a long time, and soon her displeasure dispersed.
She licked her lips inexplicably at the thought of him in a suit.
Okay.
It was a surprise.
Ashley thought for a moment and offered:[why don’t we sit in the back?]
The auditorium had more space and more seats than people.
The seats in the front row were basically arranged, and most of the seats were company representatives and professors from other universities, and the rest were not fixed.
Jacob:[cool.]
Seeing this, Ashley packed up her things, told her classmates next to her, got up and walked back, and found two empty seats side by side to sit down.
Before long, Jacob came and sat next to her.
Ashley looked in his direction and was attracted by him.
She could notice that the girls next to her seemed to keep looking at him. She was a little upset. “Why are you still wearing a suit? Did you go back and change it after you got off the plane?”
Jacob reached out and grabbed her and pinched the meat on her hand, “Yes.”
Ashley couldn’t help it and muttered, “My classmate said you have a scumbag face.”
Jacob looked up and said, “What?”
“They said you have,” Ashley stared at him, with a hint of condemnation. “once in a century, extremely standard, scumbag face.”
“What kind of face is a scumbag face?”
“I don’t know.”
Depending on what the classmate said, Ashley was a little unscrupulous, “They said you have.”
Jacob’s eyelids moved.
Without waiting for him to speak again, Ashley exploded and suddenly pinched his face and said one word after another, “Can you stop attracting other people?”
Jacob was stupefied for a moment, feeling absurd, “Stop attracting?”
Ashley held his head and moved down, trying to get him to cover his face with his body and avoid the eyes cast in all directions. “You just sit like this.”
After thinking about it, she said with a straight look, “Can you wear a mask when you go out later?”
Staring at her appearance, Jacob reacted, and the corners of his lips bent up.
“Are you jealous?”
Ashley bulged her cheek and did not deny it.
She glanced and suddenly noticed that the tie around his neck was the one she had given him.
The sulk barely dissipated.
Ashley changed the topic, “When are you going back to South Star?”
“The day after tomorrow morning.”
“Oh.”
“I will come again during the Tomb Sweeping Day.”
Jacob said, “Visit my Mom, you will come with me then.”
Ashley nodded, “Good.”
Jacob sat on the back of his chair, tilted his head, and looked at her lazily.
Before long, he spoke again and said casually, “Come here.”
Ashley leaned over suspiciously, “What?”
“The tie is loose.”
Jacob said, “Help me.”
Ashley was confused, “But I don’t know how.”
Jacob, “Just push it up.”
Without saying anything, Ashley reached out and grabbed his tie and clumsily pushed it up as he said.
The next moment, Jacob suddenly grasped her wrist and pulled it forward.
It seemed to be driven by this force.
He leaned forward and kissed her lips accurately.
Leave as soon as he touched it.
A very brief moment.
Before Ashley realized what had happened, Jacob sat up, wearing a tie slowly, saying, “You scared me.”
Ashley, “…”
“If you want to kiss me, just kiss directly,” Jacob affectionately rubbed the corner of her lips, “do not play tricks.”
Ashley’s expression was indescribable.
She put up with it, pulled his hand off with a straight face, leaned over again, helped him adjust his tie, and said harshly, “It’s not straight.”
Jacob lowered his eyes, suddenly smiled, and called her, “Kiddo.”
“What?”
“I miss you.”
Ashley looked up and whispered, “Oh.”
Jacob picked an eyebrow, “Oh?”
Ashley helped him take care of his suit and explained solemnly, “I mean I miss you too.”
Jacob smiled, “OK.”
Ashley looked down at her cell phone and asked bored, “Are you going to go up and speak later? It seems to have three minutes for every company. ”
Jacob, “Mm-hmm.”
What the content said was nothing more than the situation of the company, and Ashley didn’t ask any more questions, but because of the expectation, she felt that time seemed to pass a lot faster.
It will soon be the turn of the session.
Jacob got up and looked sideways at her. “I’ll be back soon.”
Ashley was going to take a picture, which was a little far from the stage, so she simply changed her position.
After waiting for a long time, it was finally Jacob’s turn to speak.
Standing under the bright light, he stood out among the crowd.
Ashley opened the video.
Jacob took the microphone from the host’s hand and looked more serious than usual.
He opened his mouth and slowly talked about the current situation of the company, serious and attentive.
The man in front was a little tall, blocking Ashley’s view.
She was also afraid of blocking the people behind, so she can only hold the phone a little higher, and the movement was a little difficult.
Two minutes passed.
At the end of a paragraph, Jacob suddenly turned around and walked several meters to the side before he stopped.
Noticing the dazed expression of the host, he smiled and gently explained, “Sorry, my girlfriend is filming me.”
“It’s not easy for her to shoot in that position.”
