Raise Love

Finn Alvarez was both angry and amused.

He couldn't stand being goaded the most. He glanced at Oliver Kim who was holding the phone and snorted with a laugh, "Record it then. It's just a video. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

The video was recorded eight times.

Everyone couldn't stop laughing. Then they watched Finn Alvarez open Instagram, upload the video, and finally click "send" with a dark face.

He had a lot of followers on Instagram Feed. As soon as he sent it out, there were several replies immediately.

[savior: Holy shit! Is this shy beauty really my Finn?!]

[Sweetheart in the world: Finn, if you're kidnapped, just blink your eyes.]

...

[Handsome guy: Awesome! Awesome! /Hot! /Hot! /Hot!]

[Ryder Kensington reposted /video]

Finn Alvarez had no idea what that bastard Ryder had done. He didn't even want to take a look and just turned off his phone, narrowed his eyes and knocked on the table.

"Come on, let's continue."

The bottle started spinning again. Aria was sitting in an inconspicuous position, and her heart was lifted again. She secretly prayed that it wouldn't be her.

However, it seemed that God didn't hear her prayer.

After a few rounds, the jeering sounds rose, "Oh, it's the junior girl this time."

"..."

Aria lowered her eyes and looked at the other side of the bottle. The person pointed at was Lila Torres.

Lila Torres also looked at her.

Both of them saw coldness in each other's eyes.

After a while, Lila Torres smiled and asked, "Junior girl, what do you choose?"

Aria thought for a while, "Truth."

The challenge of truth was not high. Since they didn't know each other well, Lila Torres didn't pick the cards but just randomly took a few and handed them over, asking Aria to choose directly.

Aria chose a card.

The content on the card: How is the person who made your heart flutter when you were young now?

"..."

Aria was silent for a few seconds when she saw these words.

What a clichéd question!

Everyone urged her one after another to ask if she had someone she liked. When they saw that she didn't speak, they suddenly had an epiphany. If she didn't have one, she wouldn't react like this. So they started jeering, grinning wickedly and asking her to tell quickly and not to cheat.

Ryder was also looking at her. There was a faint trace of amusement in his eyes. He propped his chin up, and his lazy eyebrows and eyes showed a bit of interest as he waited for her to speak.

Aria took a deep breath.

She looked away from him. As she breathed, her expression gradually calmed down, and she curved her lips and smiled softly.

Everyone was slightly stunned.

"Him."

This smile was so pure and beautiful.

It seemed to carry a young girl in her flowering season's tender feelings and joy for the boy in her heart, full of sincerity and genuineness.

It made people want to explore.

To explore what kind of boy could make this pretty and quiet girl in front of them show such a gentle yet somewhat sad expression.

"He's fine." Aria said in a low voice, "He's good in every way. He has good grades, a good appearance, is gentle and gentlemanly, very patient, and is the kind of person who shines brightly under the national flag." gòйЪ.ōΓg

He was the unattainable male god in the hearts of all the girls in the school, standing before the altar, on a par with the sun and the moon, and his light could overshadow everything.

If he wanted to.

Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.

Aria thought for a while and continued, "As for now, he should have been admitted to a top university and is still shining brightly and is liked by many people."

He's sitting right in front of me.

There's a casual smile in his good-looking eyes, listening to me talk about my joy.

Nobody knows.

At this moment, no one wanted to interrupt.

Lila Torres looked at Aria with complicated eyes. Girls understand girls best. She didn't know if it was because she was sensitive, but she originally thought that the person Aria liked was Ryder.

But her description...

It wasn't Ryder.

Only the girls who had dated Ryder knew clearly that even if he agreed to someone's pursuit, he would keep an absolute distance strictly. Let alone hugs and kisses that couples should have, he wouldn't even hold hands.

He was gentle, considerate, polite, and also cold.

But none of the girls would tell others about it.

Because no girl would be willing to admit that her boyfriend wouldn't even hold her hand. In fact, it was a rather embarrassing thing.

At the same time—

This was also the reason why there were all kinds of strange evaluations of him on the forum—although the reasons for breaking up were all very unreasonable, to some extent, Ryder was an atypical "scumbag".

Was he a scumbag? Yes, he was.

He was in a relationship but didn't let others touch him. Isn't that being a scumbag?

But was he really a scumbag? In fact, he wouldn't even hold the girl's hand.

To put it nicely that they were a couple, it was better to say that they were just people who could talk to each other when walking together.

However, he wouldn't make people feel disrespected.

Even so, there were still countless girls throwing themselves at him.

He was so good-looking and the president of the Student Union. Just being related to the name "Ryder" could greatly satisfy one's vanity when told to others.

Girls in love were all the same. Even if they knew that he didn't like them, they would always involuntarily think, what if, what if I became his one and only.

They always thought that they were different.

Lila Torres was no exception.

...But the two points of being gentle and patient that Aria mentioned really didn't seem to have anything to do with Ryder.

Suddenly she wasn't sure again.

Ryder was actually heartless.

The private room was eerily quiet for a while. Finally, Aria smiled and broke this strange atmosphere, "Okay, I've answered. Let's continue?"

Everyone finally came to their senses.

Ryan Bennett said indignantly, "Damn it! Which guy is so blind? He doesn't even like a girl as pretty as the junior girl. He must be blind!"

Aria was indeed pretty, the kind of quiet and gentle beauty.

She was suitable for a family life.

But most boys at the age of sixteen or seventeen liked lively and bright girls more.

Like Ryder.

Aria just smiled and didn't want to say anything.

Oliver Kim nodded approvingly, "Exactly! Exactly!"

Finn Alvarez scratched his chin. He had a hunch that the person Aria mentioned might be from their alma mater, but he really couldn't remember such a person in Trinity School. He sighed and teased, "I didn't expect that. No wonder you're not attracted to our Ryderoo."

The glory of that class in Trinity School was all overshadowed by Ryder.

While saying that, he kicked that person and cursed with a laugh, "Look at you. You only have a good face, and you don't have anything else."

"Our Ryderoo has that face, and that's enough. Haven't you seen how many girls are throwing themselves at that face?" Ryan Bennett smiled and glanced at Lila Torres, snorted, "Well, isn't our department flower right here?"

Lila Torres gave him a sideways glance, with a slightly coquettish smile in her eyes.

Oliver Kim exclaimed, "Ryderoo, you're such a scumbag."

Aria smiled along and quietly looked at Ryder while tucking the loose hair behind her ear.

Ryder didn't seem to have any reaction. He gently rubbed his chin with his fingertips, his eyes were dark, and he chuckled in a tone that couldn't reveal his emotions.

"Enough." He joked, "Are you guys never going to stop?"

Aria's eyes darkened slightly, and she felt a bit stuffy in her heart.

There were some things that actually made her nose sour no matter how many times she verified or accepted them.

Suddenly she didn't want to stay any longer.

Coincidentally, that person also looked over at her for some reason. Unlike before when he would just take a glance and then withdraw his gaze, this time he stopped uncharacteristically, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

...If she continued to look at him like this, she might give herself away.

Aria pursed her lips to hide her feelings, tried hard to put on a smiling face, and smiled at them, "You guys continue playing. I'm going to the bathroom."

Without waiting for others to react, she took her bag and pushed the door open and walked out.

Ryder lowered his eyes thoughtfully.
