Jeremiah: ”
His eyes darkened slightly, and after a while he said, “Hmm.”
“What…huh?”
“Not small.”
Paulette:
She suddenly realized something, her face turned red, then she lowered her head and quietly ate.
The atmosphere changed unknowingly, the candlelight flickered, and the red edges of the roses seemed to be shining beautifully
Paulette didn’t used to drink much. After three drinks, she would feel hot all over and a dizzy sensation would rush to her head. She put down her fork, stood up, and walked over to Jeremiah, tilting her head to look at
him.
“You are much more handsome now than before.”
“But Jeremiah, being handsome doesn’t help! Do you know that you were really annoying when you were a kid! You even let the dog bite me on purpose!”
Paulette’s eyes were misty, with a hint of hidden sadness.

She felt like she was dreaming, some things just didn’t feel right if left unsaid.
“Ah, forget it. I’m a kind and generous person, I won’t stoop to your level. Plus, you’ve been pretty nice lately… helping me with my homework and all. Thank you.”
Jeremiah pinched his forehead in frustration and said softly, “Paula, you’re drunk.”
“I wasn’t drunk!”
Paulette slapped him on the shoulder and said, “Let’s go! We’re getting
married!”
Jeremiah reached out and pulled Paulette into his arms, she fell lightly and her eyes met his, deep and captivating.
“Really?”
“Hmm!”
Paulette nodded emphatically, “Jeremiah, I want to marry you!”
At that moment, Jeremiah felt like there was a tsunami in his heart, almost blowing away all his self–control and rationality.
He cleared his throat and said hoarsely, “Okay, let’s get married. But you need to go to bed now, be a good girl.”
Paulette was dazed, with only this handsome face in front of her eyes. She giggled and said, “You look really good.”

He raised his lips, picked up the woman in his arms, and went upstairs.
Paulette had a really long, long dream.
In her dream, she had just started junior high school, and at that time she was learning to ride a bike home with her classmates.
One day it was her turn to do duty, so she had to go alone. It was about to rain and there were hardly any cars on the road.
Paulette sped up on her bike, but almost crashed into someone at the
corner.
She slammed on the brakes and almost fell.
“Hey, little sister, all by yourself, huh?”
Three hooligans with lollipops in their mouths, casually blocking her way, “It’s so late, it’s dangerous to go home alone, do you want me to walk you home?”
Paulette gripped the handlebars tightly, wanting to get around them and
leave.
The thug lifted his foot lightly and got stuck in front of her car wheel, his eyes slightly changed, “I’m talking to you, why are you so rude?”
“I didn’t know you guys.”
“I just introduced myself and got to know each other.”
The other two people laughed and echoed, as if the more flustered Paulette became, the happier they were.
Paulette had no expression on her face, but her palms were sweating. She

But this move was quickly seen through by the hooligans, who grabbed her wrist and said, “Hey little girl, we just want to be friends with you, don’t be so defensive, we’ll take you home.”
There were usually few people on this road, and today, with this kind of weather, not even dog walkers were out.
Paulette looked at them and calmly asked, “What do you want?”
She didn’t have cash on her, but WhatsApp had money.
She thought, If these people are just after money, I’ll give them the money first, then go back and call the police.
However, the hooligan looked at her with interest, “Tsk, look at this girl! So young but already has this calm and cool demeanor, the more I look, the more I like.”
Laughter filled the air, Paulette’s face turned pale, and she kept thinking to herself…what are the chances of getting away if she abandons the car here and runs.
If there’s only one person, she can still give it a try, but three of them…..
The hooligan saw that she still didn’t react, and he thought it was boring.
The smile faded, and he said coldly, “Since you know what it means, there’s no need for us to talk anymore. Hand over the money on you.”
Paulette said, “I didn’t have cash, can I transfer you on WhatsApp.”
“Then you went back and called the police, right?”
