GoodReadAlison hesitated for a few minutes, and then she changed into a pair of strappy jeans.
Luis had been downstairs waiting for her. Alison didn’t have to stand on the pegs of Luis’ bike anymore, as she now had her own bike.
Seeing Alison coming down, Luis looked at her and asked, "Do you want to have fried chicken?" Alison nodded, "Sure." Alison was not a picky eater like Luis. She had a good appetite for most food.

How sweet he is to his girlfriend!" The boy felt embarrassed. He then asked Luis, "Dude, where did you get this chair?" "I got it from the waiter." Alison just sat down.

She subconsciously turned to Luis, "Luis." "Yes?" Alison didn’t know how to say it. The girl was still looking at them, and Alison was so embarrassed that she could only shake her head, "Nothing." Luis raised an eyebrow, withdrew his eyes, and lowered his head to his phone.
After about twenty minutes, finally, they had a table.
Just as they were walking to their table, they ran into Jacob, who was having dinner with his friends at the srestaurant. There were a bunch of them, boys and girls. Their table was right in front of Alison and Luis’.
When Alison was walking toward their table, Jacob saw her at a glance, "Alison?" Jacob stood up and walked up to Alison.
Alison was surprised, "Jacob." "What a coincidence! You're here for dinner too!" While Jacob was talking, he subconsciously looked at Luis and asked Alison, "Is this your brother, Alison?" ‘This guy looks handsome!"

Although Luis was not her brother by blood, he had been taking care of her ever since they met.
In Alison's heart, Blaze was her brother, and Luis was her brother too.
Hearing Luis’ answer, Jacob's face immediately changed color, "So you're Alison's friend?" "Is it any of your business?" Luis then took Alison's hand and walked to their table.
Jacob turned his head and watched the two walk away. He gritted his teeth. He was upset. Just as he was about to walk over and ask for clarification, Pablo walked up to him and put a hand on his shoulder. " What do you want to do?" "What do | want to do? Didn't you see Alison with that guy?" Pablo laughed, "She’s out for dinner with a friend. What business is it to you? Who are you to Alison? A classmate? Isn't that guy closer to Alison than you are?" Jacob was choked. He was speechless. He cback to his seat, grabbed the menu, and ordered a dozen beers.
