Julie instantly let go of her hand, at an astonishing speed.
She quickly grabbed her T-shirt and yanked it down.
Lifting her head, she glared at Kieran, her cheeks flushed with anger.
"Do you need help fixing your shirt?" Kieran asked with a frivolous smile.
"Drop dead!"
"I can't do that, the policy of increasing birth rates has been implemented, I haven't contributed to society yet, if I die now, it would be a disservice to society."
"You mean a disservice to your genes, right?" Julie was already used to Kieran's shamelessness, so she had no problem rebutting him.
But Kieran just laughed, "Then think of it as saving the next generation. The glorious and great task of improving my genes can only fall on you. After all, with my inferior genes, I can still breed a smart child like Ivan, mostly due to your contribution."
"Kieran, you really have no shame!" Julie glared at Kieran's eyes and refuted him word by word.
Kieran sighed lightly, "Between keeping my image and getting you, I choose to give up my image."
"Between keeping my image and getting you, I choose to give up you."
"Joyce, I've only been punished physically once in my life, and that one time was because of you, punished by the coach to run around the field. Are you sure you want to argue with me about image issues, rather than ask me why I had to run with you?"
"Isn't it because you like me?" Since Kieran already didn't care about his image, did she still need to maintain hers?
Kieran had seen the most shameless moments of Julie, and compared to those, Julie was already quite restrained now.
"Yes, because I like you. I wanted to run with you. I was afraid that you would no longer like me after high school, so I went to confirm if you still liked me." Kieran said.
To Julie's surprise, Kieran was straight forward, which was completely out of his character.
Julie's resistance and anger involuntarily paused for a moment.
With Kieran's words, Julie remembered that there was indeed such a thing.
At that time, when they moved from junior high to high school, they had to change schools. Kieran had good grades and could easily get into a prestigious school. Julie, on the other hand, had poor grades and unless a miracle happened, there was no chance she could get into the same high school as Kieran.
At that time, Julie felt that her purpose in life was Kieran, so she desperately tried to get into the high school where Kieran was.
In order to get into the high school where Kieran was, she had to work hard in private.
Julie thought about it and the most effective way was to get Rankin, who had good grades in class, to tutor her, so she bought him lunch every day.
For a whole week, Julie even forgot to stick to Kieran, she put all her energy into tutoring with Rankin.
Finally, whether it was her determination that moved heaven and earth, or for some other reason, Rankin finally agreed to tutor her.
Julie asked the teacher to allow her to sit next to Rankin.
Kieran always sat in a single seat at the back of the school.
There were many students in the class at that time, and everyone sat on both sides of a table in pairs, only Kieran sat alone at the end. This was due to Kieran's own request, and Kieran's all-round development greatly improved the overall level of the class, so the teacher was very accommodating to him.
Julie originally sat in the position in front of Kieran, a position she had struggled to get.
In order to be able to get into the same high school as Kieran in the future, Julie told Kieran before she moved her seat, "Kieran, you're too hard to get, I'm letting go, yes, you're losing me. I've decided to start forgetting you step by step from moving my seat, I hope you can get into a good school. Oh! By the way, I hope that no one else can marry you in the future except me. You're welcome."
After saying that, Julie moved to sit next to Rankin.
Rankin was quite similar to Kieran in some ways, especially his aloof personality, and his equally outstanding appearance and grades. It was only because of Kieran that his light was completely covered.
But you should know that Rankin also had a lot of suitors in the school.
Julie still remembered the first thing Rankin said after she moved her seat next to him, "You don't like Kieran anymore?"
Julie was silent for a moment, then looked at Rankin seriously and said, "Rankin, can you tell me with your wisdom, can a person decide not to like another person at will?"
Rankin seemed surprised by Julie's question, so he hesitated for a while before saying, "That's none of my business."
"You're right, there won’t be a good ending with puppy love, you're such a smart person, you definitely can't fall in love early. Puppy love is not good." Julie answered seriously.
Rankin just looked at Julie with some confusion, "Then why do you like Kieran?"
"Liking someone doesn't mean puppy love. I'm just admiring him, queuing up to be his girlfriend in advance!"
