Chapter 20 The Arrival of Pink Hair 

Is that… Milly? 

She finished the exam so quickly? Did she hand in her paper early? But it’s only been an hour! How could she be so fast?! 

Biting his lip, Anthony couldn’t help but increase his pace in answering the questions. 

By the time he finished writing the last word, it had taken him exactly an hour and a half. Without hesitation, he stood up and submitted his paper. 

This was the first time he had turned in a paper without checking it. 

But he didn’t care about that anymore. All he could think about now was that he couldn’t afford to do worse than that woman! 

However, Milly was more impressive than he had imagined. Not only did she turn in her paper early for the integrated science paper, but she also managed to finish the math and Spanish tests in just forty minutes. 

Anthony gritted his teeth, his mind racing. The fastest he could reduce his answer time to was one hour… 

Anthony had no knowledge of Milly’s thoughts or the subtle competition she had going on. After submitting her paper, she went out to buy shaved ice. 

The shaved ice stall at the school entrance served delicious shaved ice, and it was both tasty and affordable. Every time she visited, it was bustling with people. This time, she turned in her paper early, and there was no queue. 

In her previous life, she was an actress and had to maintain her figure and control her weight, so her diet was very strict, and she didn’t dare to eat freely. Forget shaved ice–she wouldn’t even dare to eat fruit. 

But now, she didn’t have to restrain herself anymore. She had to eat to her heart’s content. 

“Hi, I’ll have a matcha shaved ice with extra cream, syrup, and cornflakes.” 

The boss, a smiling woman in her fifties, replied, “Of course.” 

The shaved ice was presented in a bowl. She scooped a large spoonful into her mouth; it was sweet and cold, making her want to savour every bite. 

Just then, a deep and captivating voice, tinged with a hint of mischief, whispered, “Hi, I’ll have a cup of shaved ice, no syrup, no toppings. Thank you.” 

Milly paused in her scooping. 

No syrup, no toppings… Isn’t that just plain shaved ice? 

This person is truly intriguing, coming all the way here just to eat a bowl of plain shaved ice. What a waste of money. 

“That’s one dollar, young man. Are you paying with Venmo or cash?” The woman’s voice echoed. 

Then came the rustling sound of someone searching for money in their clothes, accompanied by the

Is this person searching for coins in handcuffst 

Just as she was about to turn around, a shadow obstructed her view, followed by a voice from over her head. “Girlie, how about I give you an autograph, and you give me a dollar in exchange?” 

Milly looked up, only to be met with a man with glaring cherry blossom pink hair and a flashy neon green leather jacket, adorned with various sizes of metal chain accessories all over. 

This outfit is truly… indescribable. 

Milly finally understood where the crisp sound of metal collision just now had come from. 

Fortunately, the man in front of her had deep and delicate features, and this c somehow subdued by his face, which also had a hint of trendiness,

He seemed to be in a hurry, frowning as he glanced at his wristwatch, urging, “Girlie, I’m in a rush. Have you decided where you want me to sign?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Milly took a step back with her shaved ice, looking up at him. Her large glasses concealed the emotions in her eyes as she said in a deep voice, “Sorry, I’m not a fan, and I don’t need your autograph.” 

The hand that had just taken out the pen trembled fiercely, and he widened his eyes while pointing to his nose in disbelief. “What do you mean? You’re not a fan? You don’t know me?” 

Seemingly taken aback, he spoke in a high decibel, causing Milly’s ears to ache. 

She shook her head earnestly. “I don’t.” 

When she nodded, she could clearly see the devastation in Pink Hair’s eyes. It was evident that not recognising him was unacceptable to him. 

His chest heaved up and down, and his professional smile instantly faded. “I am a superstar, and my promotional posters are plastered all over the streets. Wherever I go, heads turn at the sight of my Take a closer look. I refuse to believe you don’t know me.” 

With that, he leaned in closer. 

Milly raised her head quietly and looked. Tm sorry. I have no recollection.” 

The sound of a breaking heart echoed. 

face. 

Pink Hair clutched his chest as if wounded internally. Trembling as he pointed at her, he gritted his teeth and accused, “I knew it. You’re doing this on purpose. You must be a fan of my rival, Jonathan. That’s why you came to attack me when you saw me; you’re seeking revenge for your idol! Hmph, dream on! As long as I’m here, Jonathan will never be able to overshadow me!” 

Milly paused in her ice–eating motion and blinked. 

Jonathan? 

That name sounds familiar. 

After racking her memory for a while, she finally recalled. It was her fifth brother! According to the timeline, Jonathan was not yet a movie star, but he had already made a name for himself and won several awards. Having a few rivals was normal.

Seeing the girl in front of her remain silent, Pink Flair became even more convinced of his own theory. Folding his hands together, he coldly stated, “IImph. I knew it. Only Jonathan’s fans would not fall for my handsome and charming appearance” 

He then strode up to Milly, bent down, and used his slender fingers to adjust the oversized classes on Milly’s nose, softly saying, “Girlie, consider changing your glasses. Only someone lacking insight would prefer Jonathan, that cold block of ice, over me, a warm–hearted man! Look at yourself; you can’t even see people properly.” 

Milly narrowed her eyes at the sudden intrusion and felt repulsed. 

Without hesitation, she raised her arm and slapped his hand away from her glasses with a ‘smack, her eyes behind the lenses flashing with determination. 

This is my personal affair. What concern is it of yours?” 

Jonathan was her fifth brother, and even though they hadn’t met yet, blood is thicker than water. The man in front of her was maligning her brother, and the slap just now was already a gesture of restraint by not hitting him on the head. 

No wonder Jonathan became a movie star. The entertainment industry demanded top–notch skills, and that was certainly no easy feat. 

Just as Milly thought the eccentric Pink Hair in front of her would explode in anger after being slapped, she looked up to find him staring fixedly at her wrist while standing there, looking bewildered. 

Following his gaze, she noticed he was staring at the bracelet on her wrist that Andrew had given her, and she hadn’t taken off yet.
