Chapter 56 - Because Of Excitement

The voice fell, and the woman noticed Ashley standing by. 

She suddenly realized that he was unavailable and coughed awkwardly, "Sorry to bother you."

She then left quickly.

Leaving the two standing there.

Jacob lowered her eyes, slightly leaned over and looked down at her, and reached for the computer bag in her hand.

Staring at her extremely unhappy expression, he smiled, and he seemed to be in a good mood, “Are you angry?”

Ashley looked at him and said with a straight face, "Why am I?"

Jacob smiled, "Then why didn't you say anything?"

Ashley was still so upset that she didn't want to talk to him. She walked past him and said in a stiff tone, "She asked you for your number, not me. Why should I say anything?"

"I didn't give her, did I?" Jacobu easily followed, inappropriately admitting his mistake, "Give me a break."

Ashley couldn't help turning back, "Did I say something?"

Jacob thought carefully and joked, "Well, you said you were jealous."

Ashley pursed her lips hard and retorted, "You are jealous. "

Jacob picked eyebrows. "Are you really not jealous?"

Ashley was silent.

"I misunderstood," Jacob said. "but you seemed to be jealous."

Ashley remained silent.

Jacob, "Really not?"

Seeing that he was endless, Ashley felt that she was very obvious. After holding back for a few seconds, she simply said, "So what? "

Jacob was stupefied for a moment and laughed out loud.

He laughed for a long time, and then said, "Nothing."

Ashley said angrily, "Can you ...?"

Jacob, "Mm-hmm"

She said in a cold voice, "Can you just wait for me there calmly?"

Jacob smiled and said, "Didn’t I?"

Ashley stared into his eyes steadily.

His eyelash was fine and long, the pupil color was light, always seemed to be dyed with light, and his eyesight seemed affectionate and bewitched.

There was always a casual smile on his face, which seemed to be teasing her.

She convicted him directly. "I just saw you flirt with the woman."

The extreme words came to an astonishing conclusion.

Jacob almost choked," What? "

"You did."

Ashley solemnly framed him, "Otherwise how could someone come up to you for your number for no reason?"

"Kiddo, I’m the victim."

"How did I flirt with her? Please describe it to me."

Ashley paused for a moment, but couldn't think of how to describe it.

She bowed her head and pondered it over. "You looked at her," she said vaguely.

In an instant, Ashley became arrogant and seriously criticized, "Yes, you looked at her."

"This is not called flirting."

Ashley murmured, "No, it has to be combined with scenario analysis."

Then she glanced up and down at him with a strange look. "You dressed up before you came out."

Jacob lowered his eyes, looked at his short-sleeved sweatpants, and instantly realized that no matter what he did now was wrong.

Listening to these crooked arguments, he tilted his head and pinched her face with a low smile. "Narrow-minded."

Ashley frowned. "It’s you."

Just out of the subway station, Ashley turned out the sunshade from her bag and deliberately said, "It is big, the sun."

She glanced at him and childishly added, "I won't cover you."

Jacob, "Really?"

Ashley was silent for two seconds and gave up. "Fine."

"Give it to me."

Ashley gave him the umbrella obediently.

Jacob opened the umbrella, leaned toward her and asked casually, "Have you had breakfast?"

"Yes," Ashley said. "I had a cup of soy milk and a pancake."

"Is there anything else you want to eat?"

Ashley had no idea what to eat and shook her head.

Jacob thought, "I'll buy some fruit."

Ashley blinked, "I want to eat watermelon."

"Sure."

The two entered a nearby fruit stall.

The booth was small, there were still many customers, and there was a hustle and bustle of people.

On the recommendation of the owner, Jacob chose a watermelon.

Ashley didn't stay with him and picked out some plums on the small shelf beside him.

Then, Jacob went to check out and let Ashley wait outside.

There were also people who wanted to buy things. Ashley stood in the shade outside the store and took up some space, blocking other people's way.

She looked around and found a shade to stay.

She turned out her phone and checked the time.

The light suddenly dimmed in front of her, and she could see that someone was standing in front of her.

Ashley's first reaction was that Jacob came back from shopping and looked up, "Why are you so...?"

The next second, Ashley noticed that the person in front of her was not Jacob, and she instantly took back the rest of the words.

It was a young man.

The man, with handsome eyebrows and a sunshine smile, pointed to her cell phone cheerfully. "Sorry to bother you. Can I have your number? "

Ashley was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said, "Sorry, I have a boyfriend."

The man said regretfully and scratched his head. "All right."

Ashley's eyes moved involuntarily and she found that Jacob had already bought the fruit.

He was standing not far away, looking at the two of them calmly.

After the man left, the two walked side by side in the direction of Jacob's house.

All the way speechless.

Ashley looked at him from time to time, looking nervous.

Soon she coughed and said calmly, "The man just came to ask the way, and I showed him the way."

Jacob, "Mm-hmm."

Without waiting for Ashley to breathe a sigh of relief, Jacob smiled and said, "You flirted with him."

Ashley withdrew her eyes, kept silent and did not respond.

Also because he had just said so many accusations to Jacob, she felt extremely embarrassed.

Jacob said in a leisurely voice and pretended to be casual. "Brother just went to buy some fruit."

Ashley, "..."

Jacob, "It's only been a few minutes. Can’t you watch your behavior?"

Ashley said seriously," I think we are even. "

The implication was that he can shut up.

Jacob glanced down and he didn’t intend to stop. He spoke very slowly and meaningfully, "You dressed up specially today."

Before he finished, Ashley said, "I take back what I just said."

Jacob raised his eyelids and said loosely, "How did you answer that person just now?"

Ashley said frankly, "I said I have a boyfriend."

Jacob seemed not to hear clearly, "Have what?”

Ashley looked at him, "Boyfriend."

Jacob bent the corner of his mouth, turned his head, and looked up at her. "I’m here."

Jacob's house had only one room and no study.

Ashley had planned to review at the dinner table and did not intend to occupy his private land.

He took the initiative to bring her in.

He usually worked in his room at home, where there was a desk.

Jacob had cleaned the desk in advance, and it was empty at this time.

Ashley sat on the chair and put the computer and review materials on the desk.

She noticed the figure of Jacob. She turned her head and asked, "What are you going to do now?"

Jacob patted the bed and naturally said, "I'm lying here."

Ashley, "Are you going to sleep?"

"No," Jacob said. "I haven't seen you for several days. I'll take a look at you."

Hearing the words, Ashley put her face in front of him, paused for several seconds, and then said mercilessly, "You're done. Can you go to the living room to watch TV or get some sleep?"

I have to review. "

The two looked at each other for a few seconds.

Jacob suddenly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into his arms, extremely caught off guard. "I want to stay here."

Ashley sat on his lap in an instant, and her eyes bumped into his bewitched eyes again.

Then he raised the corners of his lips and whispered, "I will be silent."

Ashley was a little distracted and almost came down.

She soon regained her mind, with a little reason left in her heart, reminding him, "You said you wouldn't affect me."

"All right."

Jacob stopped messing with her, rubbed her cheek with his fingers, and said, "Ruthless girlfriend."

Ashley got up from him.

Jacob, "Have you booked your flight home yet?"

Ashley sat back at the desk and whispered, "I'm not going back this summer vacation."

"Really?" Jacob smiled. "Where will you live?"

"At the dormitory."

"Told your parents?"

"Mm-hmm."

Jacob stood up and opened the curtains. "OK, study, kiddo. "

Ashley, "What will you do?"

"I'm going to make a lunch," Jacob rubbed her head and gently said, "What do you want to eat at noon? I'll make something delicious for you."

Ashley blinked. "Anything will do."

"Well, I'll go out later and buy some ingredients. If you have anything you want to eat, go to the fridge or cupboard to get it. "

Jacob thought for a moment and then said, "If someone knocks at the door, don't open the door at random."

Ashley murmured, "Why are you like taking care of a child?"

Jacob, "Well, I'm afraid you've been stolen."

Each of them did their own things until lunchtime.

Jacob simply made a few dishes and called Ashley out for lunch.

After lunch, Ashley helped him clear the table, adhering to the fair principle that she had to wash the dishes when he cooked, and she offered to wash the dishes on her own initiative.

And then accidentally smashed a bowl.

Because of her hindrance, Jacob did not help and leaned against the door to look at her.

Seeing this, he didn't show any displeasure, but smiled, "Stand there and don't move. I'll clean it up."

Ashley, afraid of being scolded, dared not say a word and turned off the tap.

Jacob swept the broken glass with a broom and asked her, "Have you ever washed the dishes?"

Ashley said, "I can manage it a few more times. "

"No need" Jacob pulled out a tissue to wipe her hands and smiled. "I didn't ask you to wash it either."

Ashley blurted out, "Then I can't let you..."

She stopped at once and coughed, "I didn't think that much."

Jacob pretended to speak calmly, with a faint smile. "I know."

Ashley continued to wash the rest of the dishes, being very careful this time, saying, "I'll buy you a new one next time. I'll buy you a plastic one that won't be broken."

Subsequently, Ashley also wiped the flow table before coming out to the living room.

Jacob sat on the sofa, put some water into the kettle, and said slowly, "It's 12:30, lunch break."

Come and have a chat with me or take a nap. "

Ashley's review today didn't keep up with the plan and she didn't want to waste any more time. "I don't deserve a lunch break."

"And you are going to continue to review?"

"Mm-hmm."

"Not sleepy?"

"No."

Jacob wondered, "Why are you so attentive to your study?"

"I want to get a scholarship."

"Cool," Jacob raised his eyebrows, poured hot water into the cup, and made a cup of oolong tea for her. "Take a nap for a while when you are sleepy. There is still enough time."

Afraid that he felt that she did not want to accompany him, Ashley added very seriously, "I am really not sleepy. I am very energetic, and I will study hard all afternoon."

Jacob said, "Well, you're not sleepy."

That said, the biological clock was particularly accurate.

Ashley got up at 07:00 today and went to the shops outside the school. after that, she specially took the subway to Jacob's house and resumed her morning study.

At this time, there was really a lack of energy, and after eating and drinking, tiredness sprang up in an instant.

Her eyelids were fighting.

Ashley tilted her head and looked at the clean, big bed next to her. It was like a temptation at the moment.

She also thought of what she had just said to Jacob, as well as more than half of the content that had not been reviewed.

She exhaled and stood up to wash her face in the bathroom.

As soon as she got out of the room, she saw Jacob sitting on the sofa.

Hearing the noise, he raised his eyelids, looked over, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing," Ashley said, "I want to go to the bathroom."

Soon, Ashley came out of the toilet.

She took another look in the direction of Jacob, hesitated for a moment, and said, just in case, "I'm going to review well, so try not to come in and disturb me."

Jacob made a lazy hum.

Ashley was relieved and went back to the room.

Sitting back at the desk, Ashley was still sleepy and couldn't concentrate.

She thought it was so inefficient that she decided to sleep for 15 minutes and then come back to review.

When she thought of the words she just emphasized with Jacob, she didn’t feel very good to let him know that she was taking a nap.

It was like she didn’t want to talk to him and insisted that she wanted to study.

But she really didn't mean it.

She really wanted to study.

But now.

She was really sleepy.

If she suddenly went out to explain to him, and then come back to sleep, it seemed very strange.

Ashley finished her psychological construction, took a stack of review materials, lay down on Jacob's bed, and closed her eyes while watching.

She was about to go to sleep when she suddenly heard three knocks at the door.

Her heart beat so hard that she immediately opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the door.

The doorknob twirled as if it would open the next moment.

At this moment, Ashley really had a feeling of being a thief. Her head went blank, she rolled over, hurriedly got out of bed, and accidentally hit the edge of the bed.

Before she could feel the pain, she lay half on the carpet beside the bed, hiding behind the bed.

At the same time, the voice of Jacob sounded, "Ash, do you want...?"

His voice stopped and his voice was somewhat confused, "Where are you?"

The door clapped against the wall with a dull sound.

Then there was the sound of his footsteps, coming from the other side of the door and approaching this way.

Soon, Ashley, who was half lying on the ground, caught up with the standing Jacob.

The air froze for three seconds.

Jacob raised his eyebrows slightly. "What are you doing here?"

Ashley opened her mouth blankly and tried to think of the reason in her mind.

As soon as she looked down, she noticed that she was still holding the review materials, cleared her throat, and said, "I'm here to review."

"Then why didn't you say anything when I called you just now?"

Ashley said," I secretly review. "

Lying on the floor secretly reviewing?

Jacob followed her words and joked, "Why are you secretly reviewing?"

Be silent for a few more seconds.

Ashley looked dignified and uttered the words, "Because of excitement" dryly.
