Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon) novel Chapter 680

Hearing this, Jasper acted as if he did not hear her. He pulled a stool and sat down beside Ruby. He placed the entire plate in front of Ruby and placed one hand on the back of Ruby's chair. He rejected with a cold expression, "I don't have enough storage on my phone."

After being rejected twice in a row, the girl shrugged and left. She even smiled politely at the others, as if nothing had happened and she was not embarrassed at all.

Stella felt so awkward that she forgot to eat the barbecue in her hand. She asked in confusion, "Are young people nowadays so straightforward in flirting with people?"

Wasn't she a little too careless? What if the other party was a handsome playboy?

Wasn't she walking into a trap? Why didn't she have any sense of self-protection? Stella didn't understand.

Olivia was not surprised by the girl's actions at all. She said in a natural tone, "That's right. This kind of situation is very common in our university. If they add each other's contact information, they'll start chatting. If they are hitting it off, they'll have a relationship. If they're not compatible, they'll break up."

After hearing this, Stella lamented that she was outdated. "I see. Alright, looks like I'm really old."

Liam wasn't strange. This kind of thing was very common at the school gate or in the parking lot, especially next to those luxury cars.

Liam complained Jasper, who was sitting beside him, "Jasper, it's really difficult for you to get out of singlehood like this. You're not giving girls any face. You can add and than delete it when you go back tomorrow. At least you can give her some face." This way, she wouldn't be awkward.

Jasper opened a bottle of beverage and took a sip. He did not feel that he had done anything wrong. His expression was normal as he said naturally, "She's not my girlfriend. Why should I give her face?"

Everyone thought, 'That makes sense.'

Stella smiled and took a bite of the barbecue that had already been cooled by the wind. She praised, "Whoever has Jasper as a boyfriend in the future will feel especially safe. He is chaste. Liam, learn from him."

"Stella, I'm also very chaste. I'm not even in a relationship yet."

The men laughed.

Liam felt that there was a reason why Jasper was single. With this emotional intelligence, his father was worried that Jasper would do something to his sister. He was really thinking too much.

Olivia added, "That's right. It's great that my brother is like this. If he agreeed to add everyone's WhatsApp, wouldn't he become a playboy?"

Everyone nodded. Only Ruby did not nod. She kept her head lowered as she ate. She seemed to be thinking about something and had a smile on her face. She was especially quiet at night.

Jasper, who was praised, acted as if he was an outsider. He pursed his lips and did not speak. He quietly drank his drink and ate.

The ones who talked the most in one night were Liam, Stella and Olivia.

In the middle of the night, everyone was asleep. The zipper of a tent was unzipped. Ruby stuck her head out and was about to leave the tent. She was holding a slightly larger cell phone.

She lowered her head and was about to turn on the flashlight when she felt that she had to change her tampon. She needed to find a place. "Are you going to the bathroom?"

It was a statement, not a question.

Ruby looked up and saw the man with his hands in his pockets looking down at her. He was already standing beside her.

She heard the affirmation in his voice and wondered if she had guessed correctly. She had the illusion that he was waiting for her, but she was a shy person. She would not ask Jasper bluntly if he was waiting for her to go to the toilet.

She stood up straight and did not answer his question about going to the bathroom. Instead, she asked gently, "Why aren't you asleep yet? Is Liam asleep?"

When she hid her stubbornness, she was especially gentle, so gentle that it was as soft as water.

"Yes, do you want to go to the bathroom?" He seemed to not let go of the question of going to the bathroom and continued to ask.

Ruby was a little embarrassed, but he turned around and looked around. It was dark in the distance and a little scary. His voice was like a mosquito. "Yes."

However, he still heard it and ignored her embarrassed. "Let's go. I'll go with you."

Without waiting for her permission, he grabbed a flashlight from the table and stood to one side of her. The beam illuminated the dim road ahead. The distance between them was less than an inch. His hands were protective behind her, not touching her body, making protective movements at all times.

When they reached a corner, Jasper grabbed her arm and stopped her from moving forward. He said softly, "Stand here. I'll go take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shone his flashlight on an empty space in front of him and checked it again and again.

She obediently stood rooted to the ground. For a moment, she was in a daze. She watched in a daze as he bent down to examine the ground. He used his feet to destroy the grass on the ground and flatten it.

In the eyes of his classmates, he had a cold face and looked like a Buddha who was unapproachable. They could not get close to his heart and could not guess what he was thinking.

And now, as she watched him do all this, she suddenly felt that her stubbornness was worth it. He was really good.

However, he was very stubborn.

This special stubbornness could be transformed into other precious things, such as...

When he came out, he saw her looking at him with a silly smile. He was baffled. He frowned slightly and handed her the flashlight. She didn't take it and just looked at him.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to the bathroom anymore?"

Ruby came back to her senses and replied with a smile on her face. Seeing that he was a little confused, she shook her head and replied gently, "No, give it to me."

She had already reached out with her hand in the air. He suddenly retracted the flashlight and said calmly, "I'll help you turn on the light. It's not convenient for you."

Ruby was speechless. Should he watch?

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around consciously and walked about ten inches forward. Suddenly, he stopped and stopped walking. He was very close to her. Before she could say anything, his magnetic voice floated into her eardrums. "I'm not looking. You do yours. I can only stand here."

He had one hand in his pocket and the other behind his back. The light shone on the area that he had just flattened.

Ruby knew that he would not turn around, but it was awkward to be so close. She braced herself and squatted down. Her little face was already like a stir-fried crayfish.

It was fiery red, and a sense of shyness reached her head.
