Chapter 13 It's Impossible

  • However, she noticed that this man was still sitting there with a smile, looking at her.
  • His skin is really thick, huh? He's still shamelessly grinning like an idiot!
  • But why does his smile make me feel so unsettled?
  • That gaze is so full of mirth. It seems as if he is laughing at me instead.
  • As this thought crossed her mind, Heidi's brows furrowed slightly.
  • Suddenly, it felt like a jolt ran through her body, and her beautiful eyes darted back to the test paper!
  • This time, her expression changed dramatically!
  • After quickly scanning through each question, her face transformed in a myriad of ways, but the mocking disdain was entirely gone!
  • That face, radiating intellectual beauty, was now flushed with alternating shades of red and white, her lips parting and closing as if she were trying to find the right words!
  • Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief!
  • Finally, she realized what was wrong with the test paper.
  • Although the sheet was marked with zero points, it was also a perfect score!
  • Every single question he answered was a flawless dodge of the correct option, as if he had intentionally selected all the wrong answers!
  • For example, if the correct answer was A, he would check B, C, and D. If the correct answers were B and D, he would opt for A and C!
  • While two or three incorrect answers might be dismissed as coincidence, the entire paper was like this!
  • It meant that this guy, who clearly had the ability to score full marks, had deliberately chosen to score zero!
  • Realization dawned on Heidi, and her face soured even more.
  • The previous bet was that as long as this guy scored at least 60 points, Heidi would marry him.
  • A few minutes ago, she thought it was a joke. How could this carefree man possibly understand these questions?
  • However, at this moment, Heidi felt her face burning hot!
  • "You, you ... "
  • In the next second, she glared at Lucas, her shimmering red lips moving, but she couldn't utter a single word.
  • Lucas looked at her flushed face, feeling the urge to bite her, and a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
  • "Heidi, I still think Celine is more suitable for me. Haha!"
  • After saying this, he stood up, stuffed his hands into his pockets, and hummed a little tune that only he could hear as he leisurely walked out of the villa.
  • Seeing him leave, Blacky that had been hiding in the corner finally dared to come out and ran into the yard to frolic.
  • Heidi watched as the guy slowly walked away. Her beautiful eyes fixed on the test paper, staring at it in a daze for a long time.
  • "It's impossible! How can this be?
  • "How could such a worthless man know all this?"
  • After muttering to herself for a moment, she suddenly realized, "Huh? Did he leave?"
  • At this moment, Rosalie and Celine came down from the second floor.
  • The former looked a bit displeased, clearly having failed to convince her daughter.
  • "Celine, you usually have such high standards and look down on all kinds of talented young men. Why did you choose a little rascal to marry? It makes me so mad!"
  • The beautiful mother was still grumbling.
  • Celine pouted and remained silent.
  • After coming down, Rosalie noticed her niece in a daze, her face flushed.
  • "Heidi? Dee?"
  • Rosalie called out to Heidi a couple of times, and she suddenly snapped back to reality.
  • A hint of panic flashed in her beautiful eyes as she hurriedly crumpled the test paper into a ball and stuffed it into her bag.
  • "You're here?" Heidi masked her emotions with a forced smile.
  • "Heidi, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red?"
  • Rosalie looked at Heidi in confusion, frowning as she asked.
  • Celine also raised her delicate brows, looking curiously at her sister.
  • "N-nothing. It's a bit hot in here," Heidi replied awkwardly.
  • "Hot? No, it's not. Are you sure you're not coming down with a fever?"
  • Rosalie looked concerned and reached out to touch her forehead.
  • Heidi dodged a bit, saying, "I'm fine, Aunt Rosalie. I'm just a little tired. I'll feel better after a nap."
  • At that moment, Celine's expression turned cold as she suddenly thought of something. "Heidi, did Lucas tease you?"
  • Given what that guy did to her in the car, the beautiful CEO immediately made a connection.
  • Hearing this, Rosalie gritted her teeth in anger. "That little rascal!"
  • But Heidi shook her head, forcing herself to appear dismissive. "No, he wouldn't dare! I just feel a bit unwell, that's all."
  • To be honest, if it were just simple teasing, Heidi wouldn't care at all. There wouldn't even be any emotional fluctuation.
