Jacob raised his head, and then, he saw Alison and Luis.
At this moment, Alison also noticed Jacob.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe felt a little surprised. 'lt's almost nine o'clock. | met Jacob and Pablo two hours ago. But why are they still staying here?" The moment Jacob saw Alison, his mind went blank. After a while, he suddenly threw the beer bottle in his hand into the trash can and walked directly towards Alison. "Alison, | have something to tell you." Luis's face turned dark as soon as he heard Jacob's words.
Blinking, Alison felt that Jacob was a little strange. "What are you going to say?" ‘Jacob looks serious. Could it be that he wants to askto help him with his study again?’ Thinking of this, Alison subconsciously looked at Luis, flushing with embarrassment.
'If Luis knows that | charged Jacob smoney when | helped him with his study, will Luis think that I'm a moneygrubber?* Alison's mind was wandering. But Jacob in front of her suddenly said, "I like you." The second Jacob said this, not only was Alison shocked, but Pablo, who had just walked here, was also shocked.
Would a boy becso bold after drinking? Alison was completely stunned. It wasn't the first tthat someone had professed his love for her, but it was the first tthat someone had shown his love for her face-to-face, as other boys sent love letters to her.
Moreover, Alison didn't often stay with Jacob except for the few months when she helped him with his study. After the few months, she transferred to another school and didn't contact him anymore.
What's more, Jacob used to embarrass her in class, which caused her to be criticized by teachers sometimes.

She stood there, feeling embarrassed. But Jacob was very bold after drinking a little more alcohol. "Although my academic performance is not good, as long as | study hard, | can learn well. And my appearance is not bad. There are many girls in the school who chase me, and my family background is also good. How about becoming my girlfriend?" Alison becmore embarrassed. "Jacob, we should study hard and make progress every day. You'll meet someone you like more in the future." At such an embarrassing moment, Alison had to bite the bullet and say the standard answer of refusing a boy's love word by word.
Jacob cast a glance at Luis. Although Jacob was drunk, he understood what Alison meant. "You mean you don't like me, so you're rejectingnow, right?" Alison was shy, and it was embarrassing for her to refuse Jacob. She had already tried to save face for Jacob, but he explained what she meant so bluntly.
She stood there, not knowing what to say for a moment.
But Luis snorted suddenly. "It's good that you know she doesn't like you." Then Luis pulled Alison's hand. "We have to go home. Aunt Alexis might have returned home." When Alison heard Luis's words, she nodded quickly. "My family is waiting for me. I'll go home. Jacob, study hard and make progress every day!" Then Alison left with Luis.
Alison and Luis walked fast. Jacob wanted to follow them, but was stopped by Pablo.
Pablo looked at him. "Well, Alison saves face for you. You should cherish it."
