"Well, this is indeed a little hasty. Why don't you think about it for a while?"

　　The others also felt a little embarrassed when they came to their senses.

　　"I don't have to think about it anymore. I believe in you."

　　After all, since the system had issued this quest, I believe that Andrew would definitely succeed.

　　It was just a matter of time.

　　After we agreed on a time to talk about it, I turned and left.

　　While waiting for the car at the door, Andrew, who followed me out, suddenly spoke.

　　"No."

　　I looked at him in confusion. What did he mean?

　　Andrew frowned slightly, but still explained.

　　"I'll answer your question now. My answer is no."

　　I nodded in a daze.

　　So I just asked him if he would let my money go to waste or lie to me?

　　And Andrew's answer was: No.

　　Andrew and the others were indeed capable.

　　In just a few short months they doubled my half a million dollars straight away.

　　But I didn't ask for my money back.

　　Later, Andrew and the others discussed exchanging the money for stocks as a gift for me.

　　So I held 40% of the shares of their company.

　　While they were struggling to make profit.

　　I slowly paid more attention to Andrew.

　　It had to be said that his features must have been set up by Goddess really carefully.

　　Every part of his body seemed to have been meticulously carved.

　　At first, Andrew was very cold every time I went to find them.

　　He would only say a few words back to me if I initiated talking to him.

　　However, I wasn't discouraged. After all, if I wanted to get something beautiful, I had to be patient.

　　So I sent them afternoon tea and meals every day when they were busy.

　　“Hey, is Lora in love with Andrew?”

　　Jack kept glancing at Andrew and me.

　　There was even an ambiguous smile on his face.

　　I smiled and was about to speak when I was interrupted by Andrew.

　　He warned Jack with a serious face, "Don't make such a joke."

　　Seeing that Andrew didn't look well, Jack immediately put away his smile and apologized to me. "Please don't take it to heart. I was just talking nonsense. You guys talk! I'll go out for lunch."

　　After that, he took his lunch and ran away in a hurry.

　　"Don't mind what he said."

　　Andrew also wanted to leave with the food.

　　I immediately took his hand and said, "Andrew, don't you know that I like you? I wasn't joking that night."

　　Andrew's body stiffened.

　　A few seconds later, I heard his emotionless voice.

　　"But I don't like you. Please don't waste time on me."

　　After saying that, he gently shook off my hand and left.

　　My heart ached a little as I watched him leave, but I didn't want to give up.

　　If only I hadn't noticed his other clenched fist and what he said that night when he drove me home thinking I was asleep.

　　I'd almost believe him if it weren't for that.

　　Huh, Andrew, just keep your mouth shut.

　　I didn't visit them for the next few days.

　　We met again on the basketball court of the school.

　　Andrew's college organized a basketball game with our college.

　　By the time I got there, the competition was almost over.

　　Andrew's team was more than twenty points ahead.

　　At the end of the competition, the students of their college were cheering.

　　Some girls went up to send water to Andrew, but he didn't take it.

　　"Lora, you're here? Where's my mother? She's still in the office?"

　　Hearing Samson's voice, I looked away and handed him the unopened water.

　　"Well, Ms. Lee asked you to go home first."

　　"Well, thank you, senior."

　　Samson wasn't in a good mood. I guess it was because he lost the competition.

　　After all, his opponent was Andrew. It would be strange if Samson won.

　　"Don't be discouraged. I have faith in you, you'll win next time."

　　Looking at the depressed boy, I comforted it.

　　"Thank you, Lora. I'll work hard and win next time."

　　After saying goodbye to him, I looked around the court and found that Andrew was no longer there.

　　I sighed. I missed him a little.

　　As soon as I walked out of the court, I was dragged to the passage.

　　The next second, I was pressed against the wall.

　　"Lora, do you still like me?"

　　I looked at Andrew in front of me, who was wearing a red tracksuit and his hair was messy.

　　I looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I still like you, but not that much."

　　Andrew's grip on my wrist suddenly increased.

　　"Andrew, what are you doing?"

　　I tried my best to ignore the pain on my wrist and looked at him with a faint smile.

　　"Well, you said that you liked me. Why did you send water to others?"

　　He lowered his head and looked straight into my eyes, sounding a little aggrieved.

　　"But you said you don't like me. You told me not to waste time on you."

　　Andrew was stumped by my words and his grip on me weakened a little.

　　I took the opportunity to shake off his hand and walked out.

　　As soon as they reached the door, Jack and the others also came out.

　　There were two girls standing next to him.

　　I had seen one of them before. She was Andrew's senior.

　　"What a coincidence, Lora! Let's have dinner together, okay?"

　　"No, thanks, Jack. I have to go now."

　　Just as I was about to leave, Andrew came out from behind me.

　　"Andrew? Didn't you go to change clothes? Why are you still here?"

　　As he spoke, he looked back and forth between Andrew and me.

　　Andrew's senior also looked at me. No one knew what she was thinking.

　　"Is this your friend? Why don't we have dinner together? The more the merrier."

　　Seeing that everyone was looking at me.

　　I looked back at Andrew and he looked back at me without saying a word.

　　"Thank you for inviting me, but I still have something to do."

　　"Excuse me, are you Miss Ford? Can I call you Miss Ford? My name is Sofia. It's my birthday today. Since they won the basketball game, let's celebrate together."

　　She was clearly talking to me, but her eyes kept looking at Andrew behind me.

　　Another one who liked Andrew!

　　"I..."

　　"Lora, you haven't left yet?"

　　The corners of my mouth twitched when I saw Samson running towards us happily.

　　That was a bit of a worrying high hairline for a handsome little boy.

　　"Hey, what are you doing here?"

　　When he got here, he saw clearly that the people next to me were Andrew and the others.

　　The smile on his face faded a little.

　　After all, he had just been suppressed by them and lost the competition.

　　"Nothing. Let's go. Didn't you say that Ms. Lee was looking for me? I'll go with you."

　　After saying that, Samson looked at me in confusion and then looked at Andrew, who didn't look too good.

　　"Then let's go, Lora."

　　He was quite smart.

　　"I'm sorry, Sofia. I really have something to do. Happy birthday!"

　　Then I said goodbye to them and left with Samson.

　　There was someone staring at me from behind. Needless to say, I knew who it was.
