After getting rid of the others, Quincy and Jane walked to the side of Redby Lake. At this time, it was almost dark, and the lake looked so quiet and beautiful, under a few evening clouds in the sky.
Jane squeezed the corner of her clothes and walked along the lake, looking absent-minded.
"What's wrong?" Quincy was a little worried.
"I never thought that you are from such a rich family." Jane looked at the lake, instead of looking at Quincy. She said with a bitter smile.
"Do you hate me for lying to you before? Jane, you got to believe me. The reason why I didn't tell you was that I felt that it was not the right time yet. I never thought that I would keep hiding it from you..." Quincy explained to Jane anxiously.
What Quincy said made Jane feel touched, but at the same time, she felt more and more anxious and confused with herself.
"I know, but..." Jane sped up. She walked to a big rock next to the lake and sat down. She picked up a few stones and threw them aimlessly into the lake.
"But what? Do you doubt my loyalty to you? I can prove it to you now." Quincy was very anxious when he couldn't figure out what Jane was thinking.
"No..." Jane became less and less confident under Quincy's questioning. She turned to Quincy and stared at his eyes, "You are from a super-rich family, and I am just a poor village girl. I don’t deserve you. When I think of what happened before, I feel I was ridiculous. I even bought rotten fruit for you to eat. You can give away 1 million without hesitation. So of course, you wouldn’t have cared about the little money of buying cheap fruits..."
After saying so, Jane felt that her beautiful 10 days had come to an abrupt end, like waking up from a dream. She stood up and was about to leave. She decided in her heart that she would never have any connection with Quincy anymore.
Of course, Quincy wouldn’t let her leave like this. He quickly grabbed her hand. But because Jane walked so quickly, Quincy grabbed her with great force.
Jane fell in his arms under the big force from him. Quincy took the opportunity and embraced her tightly. Jane tried to free herself a few times, but Quincy didn’t let her go.
"Let me go. We are not matched at all..." Jane said in Quincy's arms. She had mixed feeling at this moment. If Quincy was just an ordinary student, she would want to spend her life with him no matter what.
Quincy did not speak. He just looked at her quietly with a gentle smile.
"What are you laughing at?" Jane finally raised her head and looked at Quincy. When she saw his smile, she got puzzled and even angry.
Now she was talking about an important thing, how come that he was not taking it seriously at all?
"I was wondering what you were worried about. Now I know you were worried that you don’t deserve me. Don’t worry. I will go to my family tomorrow and tell them that I will not inherit the family property in the future, nor do I need financial assistance from them. In this way, you don’t have to worry anymore. Right?"
"Are you stupid?" Jane couldn't help cursing when she heard Quincy's absurd thoughts.
"I'm not stupid. Comparing to the family's wealth, I want more to pursue what I care about" Quincy said seriously, "Do you still want to leave me?"
At this moment, Jane was moved by what he said. She felt sweet and warm in her heart.
"When did I say I will leave you?" Jane lowered her head slightly, and said in a low voice shyly, which made Quincy feel so sweet like he just ate cotton candy.
Quincy's face slowly approached Jane’s. Jane also realized what he wanted to do. Her heart started beating so fast. She felt so nervous and didn’t know how to react.
Just when Quincy got so close that he could even feel her breath, Jane stopped him with one finger on his lips, "You must first promise me not to give up the right to inherit."
If Quincy made such a ridiculous decision because of her, Jane would be very self-blamed in her heart.
"Okay, I promise you!" Quincy was particularly excited at this point. After speaking, he continued to press his lips on hers.
Jane's lips were so thin, so soft, and so sweet. Quincy felt that he was in heaven. He wished that he could stay at this moment forever, and he could hold her in his arms forever.
After a long time, Quincy reluctantly released Jane.
Quincy then took Jane to the cafeteria for dinner. Just after walking for a few steps, Jane noticed that there was something reflective in the bush. They walked over to have a look. It turned out to be a mobile phone. The phone’s SIM card was gone. All the messages on the phone were also deleted. But the phone was quite good.
"I don't know if this phone was lost or thrown by its owner." Jane held the phone in her hand, feeling a little confused.
"I think it must be thrown by someone. Didn't you see that the SIM card and the data on the phone were deleted? Jane, how about you take it yourself?" Quincy wanted to buy Jane a new phone for a long time, but he knew that Jane wouldn’t accept it. This mobile phone was at least better than Jane's old one. That was why Quincy wanted Jane to use it.
"No, what if someone else lost it?" Jane smiled and glared at him, "I will keep it with me for a while. Anyway, I come to Redby Lake all the time. Maybe I can find its owner. If no one wants it after a long time, I will use it myself then."
"Good idea." Then they wanted to continue walking to the cafeteria.
At the same time, Quincy received a message from the class group, which was sent by teacher Dante, "@All, everyone goes to the Classroom 1302 in Area A for a meeting right now. No one is allowed to take leave. Anyone who is not showing up will be deducted!
Coincidentally, Jane also received the same message.
