Chapter 978
She didn’t even join any chat groups at high school because she was studying while working part-time. Hence, she wasn’t very familiar with her classmates. Orphans like her had no choice. They had to rely on themselves and couldn’t compare with pups from good packs.
Jayden had heard from his classmates that Harper was an orphan and had to rely on herself. Perhaps that was why she was always late for school at that time. Not exposing someone’s past was the best courtesy, so Jayden didn’t pursue the topic.
“You don’t look much different from when you were in school.”
Her eyes were still so clean and clear as if they had not been contaminated by the complexities of the world.
“There are still changes.”
How could she not change at all after experiencing so many things? Even if there were no major changes in her appearance, she had been worn out.
“I remember the first time I saw you, you climbed over the wall and jumped down. I happened to pass by, and you jumped onto
me.”
“At that time, you were in a hurry to get to the classroom and didn’t even look at me. You just said sorry before you got up and
ran away.”
“I limped after you and shouted, “Wait a minute, you broke my hand.'”
“I thought you would take me to the infirmary, but you ran so fast that you disappeared in an instant.”
Jayden’s recollection of this past made Harper, who was immersed in depression, laugh out loud.
“Really? Was I so heartless back then?”
“Indeed.” Jayden smiled.
The atmosphere between the two gradually became cheerful as they talked about the days when they were in high school.
Suddenly, Jayden became a little nervous and said, “I remember that many people wrote love letters to you in high school, and many boys confessed to you. It seems that you didn’t lack suitors. Why did you still come to this blind date banquet?”
