Raise Love-18-Your face is so red

Does the president of the Student Union need to take care of these things?

Judging by Ryder's leisurely appearance, it seemed he didn't really need to.

Once Aria realized this, the happy and delighted mood she had when she first saw him faded a lot.

She stole a few glances at him, then feeling gloomy, she didn't want to look at him anymore. She fiddled with her phone for a while. There was still no one sitting next to her, and no one took the initiative to talk to her.

The corners of Aria's mouth drooped, and she simply buried her face and lay prone on the table.

As time passed, it soon reached seven o'clock sharp.

Almost everyone in the class had arrived. The multimedia was tapped gently. The sound wasn't loud, but it was abrupt, and the classroom quieted down from the initial hubbub.

Over forty pairs of eyes stared expectantly in the direction of the multimedia.

Aria had originally just not wanted to make eye contact with Ryder, who was leaning against the window in the front. But she didn't expect that while lying prone, she started to feel sleepy and actually fell asleep uncontrollably.

She woke up groggily, endured the drowsiness, sat up straight, propping her face up, with her elbow on the table. She rubbed her face.

Her eyes were hard to open, and she squinted them with difficulty.

She picked up the water cup on the table to drink some water and wake herself up.

Then, out of habit, she glanced towards the window in the front.

There was no one there.

Inevitably, a trace of disappointment welled up in Aria's heart.

...Had he left?

So it seemed he really was just making a guest appearance in each class as the president of the Student Union.

Thinking of this, Aria couldn't help but sigh heavily, feeling dejected.

It was so hard to see him even once.

She couldn't find any reason to do so.

If things went on like this, not to mention falling in love with him, it would be difficult even to talk to him... What was the use of her unrequited love!

It was just wishful thinking, Aria thought sadly.

The girl, with no makeup and her long, black hair, had her long, dark eyelashes lowered. Her mouth was slightly pouted, looking unhappy. Her lips, which had a hint of moisture, glistened faintly, looking moist and alluring. Her small facial features were delicate and charming.

She didn't notice at all that the boy sitting next to her was looking at her with great interest, his dark eyes downcast.

Aria propped her chin with her hand and listlessly turned her head.

Her absent - minded gaze stopped.

The next second, her eyes widened in disbelief, like she had seen a ghost. Her almond - shaped eyes were filled with incredulity.

Aria: "..."

Ryder's brow bone twitched slightly, the corner of his mouth tugged, and a casual smile played on his lips.

Under Aria's somewhat stunned gaze, he greeted her.

"Hi?"

Aria: "......"

Ryder: "Aria?"

"Y - you," Aria took a shallow breath, secretly glanced at Ryan Bennett in front of the multimedia, who was starting to talk about the matters during the military training and his work. She leaned closer to Ryder.

Getting nearer to him, she tried to keep her voice as low as possible and whispered, "Why are you sitting here?"

Seeing her furtive look, Ryder couldn't help but laugh in a low voice. He imitated her, leaned closer, and whispered in a teasing tone, "There are no empty seats."

The boy's voice was already low, and now it was almost like a breathy sound.

The unfamiliar, warm breath blew by her ear. Only then did Aria notice that they were standing a bit too close. His deep and husky voice penetrated her ear, making her heart tingle all the way.

She felt that half of her body on the side close to Ryder had gone numb, as if she had suddenly lost all sensation.

Aria was majoring in Financial Management. There were a total of six classes in the whole grade, with over two hundred students. There were forty - three students in Aria's class. The class was quite large, and there were actually quite a few empty seats.

But since it was the first day, no one knew each other. Most of the students came in groups. Those without companions sat alone at a table. In the middle, there were four tables in a row, and the seats on the sides were all occupied. As a result, the only empty seats left were the scattered ones in the middle.

Aria came early and sat in the last row by the window in the class. The seat next to her was empty because she was sleeping, and no one came to ask about it.

So the reason of "no empty seats" was valid.

If Ryder wanted to sit, it was impossible for him to go to the middle. And she might be the only one he knew, so it was quite normal for him to sit next to her.

"Aria." During these few seconds of her being in a daze, she heard Ryder call her again.

Aria subconsciously lifted her eyelids and let out a soft monosyllable, "Hm?"

Ryder put one hand on the side, blocking half of his face, as if he was earnestly whispering to her.

As if he had encountered something really interesting, the boy reached out his fair and slender finger and poked her soft cheek. His voice, with a suppressed laugh, was full of amusement:

"Aria, your face is so red."

Aria: "..."

Aria opened her mouth but didn't know what to say at all.

Not only that, but her face was getting even redder.

She quickly leaned back, pressing against the wall. Two faint blushes spread across her usually aloof cheeks, even more beautiful than the color of rouge. Her almond - shaped eyes stared at him roundly.

Ryder leaned in, raising his eyebrows with a mischievous smile, "Hm?"

"You... you, how can you be so touchy - feely?" Aria was so nervous that she stuttered. Her heart was pounding like it was about to jump out.

The Ryder in her heart wasn't like this.

That boy in her small world was cold and deviant, and his eyes would never stop for anyone.

He was unrestrained and flamboyant. No matter what, he would unhesitatingly follow the path he wanted to take, not caring if it was considered wrong in the eyes of parents and teachers.

Just like his name, he was unruly.

Anyway, he was definitely not the extremely mischievous and rascally look he had now.

—The persona has collapsed.

These four words strangely popped up in Aria's mind.

But undoubtedly, this made her heart flutter even more.

The boy in her heart stepped down from the altar. Even if it was unintentional, he was now standing right in front of her.

Maybe, if she was a little braver, she could reach out and touch him.

She could pick the stars with her bare hands.

Aria looked up at him, meeting those dark, affectionate almond - shaped eyes. She pursed her lips at him and whispered, "Hmph."

Ryder laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.

Ryan Bennett was standing in front of the multimedia, his throat almost dry from talking. He swept his eyes and saw someone at the back having a great time teasing the little girl.

The more he looked, the more annoyed he felt, and even his words were tinged with anger.

This bastard!

This was clearly his job!!

But this guy had forced and lured him to come here to do the hard work, while he found a comfortable place to sit. And not only that, he was flirting with the little girl.

Especially when Ryan Bennett realized that the little girl was Aria, who he had played with in the KTV last night, he thought Ryder was even more despicable. gōΠb.ōγg

What was a seasoned,ridden gossip filled, and promiscuous playboy like him doing hitting on a junior female student?

Just as he was fuming, the guy suddenly lazily lifted his eyelids.

Their eyes met.

Ryder propped his chin, raised his eyebrows, and mouthed with a half - smile.

—"Any objections?"

Ryan Bennett: "..."

Ryan Bennett: None, I wouldn't dare. You're the president, you're the boss.

At this moment, he especially missed Finn Alvarez.

If there was anyone in the world who could make Ryder suffer a setback occasionally, it was probably only Finn Alvarez.
