After the Lord Top went outside and bought a set of test books and pens, she realized that it was Valentine’s Day today.
There were many boys holding red roses on the road, girls holding milk tea smiling sweetly on the side. And many young people were selling the flowers in their arms.
There was music coming from a store.
It sang, “Valentine’s Day is always happy, and there are a lot of people passing by that street… I forget that walking alone is not lonely that… Valentine’s Day is always happy, how I wish to be by your side…”
She put everything into her bag and slowly walked back along the street.
She had been reading in her room for the past few days and had almost forgotten the smell of the air. However, the air was now filled with pink bubbles. She saw couples standing on the streets, hugging or kissing. Their postures were intimate and natural.
She even saw an old man accompanying an old woman passing through the long street. The old woman was holding a gorgeous red rose in her hand.
In the evening, she returned to her residence. Cali was cooking in the kitchen. Lord Top greeted and was about to go up when she saw Cali’s daughter come back. Cali’s daughter walked in a hurry and said, “I forgot to take something with me!”
The man who sent Cali’s daughter back at the door was a date introduced by others after New Year’s Day. He looked very ordinary and was only about 1.7 meters tall. He was a little oily. Lord Top smelled the strong perfume on him and she frowned unconsciously.
“Who is he?” After the man came in, he saw Lord Top and his eyes lit up.
Cali came out of the kitchen and introduced, “This is our tenant upstairs.” She turned around and shouted, “Miya, where did you go? Don’t let Edward wait for too long.”
“Right away. I need to find something,” Miya responded.
Cali chatted with Edward.
Lord Top carried her bag and went upstairs.
After Miya took her things out, she found that her date had been staring at Lord Top. Miya was a little unhappy. She walked over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“No, nothing.” Edward looked away.
After they came out, Edward looked at the window on the second floor. Lord Top opened the window to get some fresh air, revealing half of her face. Her hair had grown a lot, and her face was still delicate. She didn’t look like a boy, but she seemed to be handsome.
Miya stared at Edward and asked, “Why do you keep looking at her?”
“Sorry, I was just taking a look,” Edward said.
“Take a look?”
From the moment the Lord Top appeared, Miya had been jealous. She envied all the girls who were thinner than her. She envied Lord Top’s fair skin, heroic facial features, and she even envied that Lord Top had a tall, rich and handsome boyfriend. However, all of this had nothing to do with Miya. Miya didn’t understand why she looked so ugly and her boyfriend was so poor, ugly, and short… Miya was also angry that Edward kept looking at Lord Top.
Miya looked at Edward and asked, “You have been staring at her since I came out, and you have been watching her all the time. What do you mean?”
“I don’t mean anything. I’m just taking a look.” Edward felt that Miya was being unreasonable. So he took a few steps forward and said, “Let’s go, it’s too late if we don’t go now.”
Miya didn’t receive any roses on Valentine’s Day. The movie tickets were booked by herself. She deliberately left the tickets at home to see if Edward could buy new tickets. Unexpectedly, he asked her to take a taxi to get the tickets. Miya also paid for the taxi.
Miya suddenly broke down. She shouted, “Get out of here!”
Edward glanced at her and did not say anything. He turned and left.
Cali ran out when she heard the noise. She asked Miya what was going on. Miya did not say a word and rushed straight to the second floor.
Lord Top had heard the voices of the two people downstairs when she opened the window, but she did not expect it to be related to her. Hearing the deafening sound of Miya knocking on the door, Lord Top kept silent for a few seconds. Then she got up and opened the door.
Miya said with tears in her eyes, “Get out! Don’t stay at my house! Get out!”
“Are you crazy? Why are you doing?” Cali pulled Miya aside.
“Mom! Tell her to leave! Every time I was on my way to work, my neighbor asked me who she was and whether she was married or not. None of them considered my feelings. I am almost thirty! I still haven’t found a boyfriend. What about her? She’s so beautiful with good skin and a good figure. Lots of men chase her. She also has such a handsome boyfriend. Now, I finally have a date. After seeing her, he just can’t forget about her. Mom! What am I supposed to do?” Miya shouted.
Lord Top stood there at a loss. This was the first time she had faced such a situation. She couldn’t say anything to comfort Miya, and she didn’t know how to deal with it. When she came out of school, she went to the Internet bar to play games. She talked to people in the game, causing her to have very few friends in real life. She had only one friend and that friend treated her so well.. Her friend wouldn’t shout at her like Miya at this moment.
