The raise of Maureen Smith and her Good Luck System-Chapter 27 - New day
Chapter 27: New day
Chapter 27: New day
Early in the morning, such a big event happened.
Both classes wouldn’t have to attend the flag raising ceremony.
The Dean of Discipline was spitting mad.
Liam and his followers, along with a dozen people from the evergreen class, were all without surprise caught and taken to the office.
The office was at the far end of the teaching building.
From afar, you could hear the Dean’s roar:
“You are from Evergreen and International classes.
Those who don’t know might think you are some sort of ultimate class!
You are a high school student, one might think you are a crazy boyband if they didn’t know.”
“What were you thinking, following Liam’s lead?
Their family could play Go with airplanes, unlike you who would have to head home to raise chickens if you don’t study!
They could sleep in class and the teachers wouldn’t dare to interfere, but if your teachers don’t discipline you, you will end up manual laborers!”
The Dean was really an old scrooge, always dropping harsh words.
Liam usually didn’t care and let it in one ear and out the other, but today he found the words especially grating.
Why the shouting?
What if the little mask in the classroom heard it?
Liam yawned, glancing at the Dean and said: “Could you lower your voice?
What will we do if a teaching building suddenly disappears due to insufficient funds next year?”
” The Dean’s voice dropped instantly.
But Maureen in the classroom heard everything loud and clear.
She was studying early in the morning, hiding behind her book.
She couldn’t help but turn her head, asking Niel in shock:
“Can his family money really buy dozens of airplanes to play chess?”
The story was usually about the male and female leads and some supporting characters like her.
Minor characters often faded into the background.
She only knew that the Williams family was rich, but she didn’t think they were this rich!
“Not bad.”
Maureen’s beautiful and almost aggressive face was right up close, and Niel found his breath hitching slightly.
He felt as though the air had inexplicably become sweet and soft.
What’s going on?
Is this the charm of a girl?
It’s totally different from the smell of sweat from scruffy old men.
Why didn’t he notice before how beautiful the transfer student was?
In fact, he hadn’t really paid close attention to the transfer student before.
Her face was tightly covered by a mask, with only her forehead and a pair of eyes exposed.
There were so many good-looking girls out there, so Niel hadn’t paid much attention.
Niel really regretted it.
He regretted it so much.
If he had known the transfer student was so beautiful, he should have stepped up when she was bullied by Liam bro on the first day!
What’s to fear from Liam bro then?
“Aren’t you going to wear a mask anymore?” he asked.
Maureen explained,
“I hurt my face before transferring here last year, but now it’s all healed, so there’s no need to wear it.”
The transfer student was still the same transfer student, and her tone of speech was still that flat and moderate tone without much variation.
But now that she had a beautiful face, Niel felt that everything she said sounded as pleasing as a nightingale.
Niel said, “That’s good, otherwise it would be a waste.”
Sigh, it’s always Liam who ends up benefiting.
==========
When Liam came back from the office, he saw Niel leaning towards Maureen, chatting with her in a flattering manner.
It wasn’t only him; all the boys and girls in their class were pretending to recite from the textbooks they had propped up in front of, but they couldn’t help but glance over at Maureen.
Liam felt as if everyone had the look of a homewrecker on their face.
It was like danger was everywhere.
With a serious face, Liam strode swiftly over, grabbed the collar of Niel’s shirt, and lifted him up.
He dragged Niel to the furthest place from Maureen and squeezed through:
“Can you respect some discipline?
Why are you chatting nonsense during your morning self-study?”
After saying that, he swept his gaze across the whole class.
The students who were hungrily staring at Maureen immediately retracted their gazes.
Speechless, Niel thought to himself,
“You’re the one who lacks discipline the most.”
Liam took his seat.
After sitting down, realizing that Maureen was just next to him, the heat in his face started rising.
“Thank you, just now.”
Maureen spoke while using a book to hide her face, tilting her head right:
“The discipline master didn’t punish you or anything, did he?”
As Maureen leaned closer, Liam tensed up, you could say it was like he had red hedgehog-like prickles all over him.
He didn’t dare to look at her.
He tilted his head slightly away, uncomfortably saying,
“What could they punish me with, cleaning, just cleaning the bathrooms.”
Cleaning toilets?
Another opportunity to gain luck.
Maureen quickly said,
“Mr.
Williams, let me help you!”
Liam, like a rabbit being cornered and about to be violated, nervously hid closer to the wall with his ears turning red and said,
“No need.” Maureen, unsure if he had heard her, moved a bit closer.
She glanced at the teacher at the podium, then lowered her voice and spoke in a whisper, “Mr.
Williams, I beg you, please allow me to clean the toilets!”
This is so unfair!
Liam felt that she was deliberately teasing him.
He removed his mask to reveal his handsome face, and yet, she was speaking in a whisper to him.
The cool breath that came out from her speech landed on his elbow.
Moreover, what’s so hard about cleaning a toilet?
Even if his underlings are not allowed to assist, he could handle it all by himself.
She just insists on being close to him.
The men’s…
men’s toilet.” Liam nervously gripped his desk, his heart pounding.
It took a great deal of composure to keep his gaze focused on the desk as he forcefully articulated,
“You can’t clean that.”
Maureen could only respond with a disappointed “Oh.”
“Why are you stammering?” Maureen looked at Liam suspiciously.
Liam had done a lot of mental preparation to reduce his anxiety.
Don’t be nervous.
If he gets nervous from being approached a bit now, wouldn’t he panic more when doing other things in the future?
He took a deep breath silently, trying his best to look calmly at Maureen.
It’s just that she was a bit more attractive, he himself was quite handsome, wasn’t he?
But merely one glance caused him to blush, damn it, he was still flustered!
“I’m not, not stuttering.”
“Then why are you—”
Liam abruptly shut his book with a loud slam, interrupting her hurriedly on a matter at hand:
“What the hell do those people think they’re doing?”
The ones Liam was referring to were the group from the Evergreen Class.
Maureen shrugged her shoulders, explaining:
“Ann from the Evergreen Class had a private grudge with me, but it’s all sorted out now, it’s been settled.”
Liam had not even heard of who this Ann was.
In fact, throughout his three years of high school, he barely remembered his own classmates’ names, let alone people from other classes.
The only girl’s name he remembered so far was Maureen’s.
He would never imagine, the personal grudge Maureen spoke of was all about the pursuit of Richard, as rivals meeting each other increased their jealousy.
He thought it was some small conflict among the girls.
Thus, Liam frowned pondering whether to alert this person named Elijah not to pull any more stunts behind the scenes.
While they were whispering, a follower at the side reading a book couldn’t help but cast a glance towards Maureen.
Liam glanced sharply back at him.
Liam actually considered for a moment having Maureen put her mask back on.
Now there were many people staring at her.

He was not amused.
However, contemplating which girl wouldn’t want to look pretty, she would definitely be happy once the injuries on her face healed.
Therefore, Liam suppressed his selfish thoughts.
He glanced at Maureen’s backpack from behind, seeing it was still the old one, he couldn’t help but ask:
“Don’t you like the backpack?”
Maureen realized that he was referring to the new backpack he had given her last Friday.
She smiled softly and said in a low voice,
“I like it, but I’m going to sunk it before using it.
I guess I will be able to bring it tomorrow.”
Liam was pleased, he hummed complacently, his hedgehog-like short hair seemed a bit softer,
“Suit yourself, anyway, it’s yours.”
Maureen hesitated for a moment, and added,
“But I don’t like taking something for nothing.
Even if I made desserts for three years, it would not equate to your gifts, Liam.
I might as well repay you after I have earned some money.”
In response, Liam thought to himself, then just made desserts for three years.
Why not?!
Could it be the “itch” of the third year, intending to fall for someone else?!
Liam flipped through the pages of the book, raising his eyebrows, displeased,
“What are you planning to do in three years?
Going abroad?
Or heading to the moon?”
He paused for a moment.
Gathering his courage, but acting as if he had just said it casually, Liam remarked,
“If you want me to accompany you abroad, I could consider it.”
Maureen gave a dumbfounded
“Huh?”
What was going on?
As Liam saw her confused expression, his face turned sour.
Sometimes he doubts whether Maureen really likes him or not.
Otherwise, why would she keep addressing him politely as Mr.
Williams, and hadn’t even pondered about the future?
Or was it just a whim, playing him around?!
Liam’s mood plummeted like a roller coaster.
“What do you mean, Mr.
Williams?”
Maureen asked, seeing that he didn’t seem to be very happy.
“Why are you still calling me Mr.
Williams?”
Liam complained.
Calling him by his full name would be better than this distant form of address, wouldn’t it?
Every time she referred to him as “Mr.
Williams”, it felt as if he was her employer.
Maureen understood his meaning, after that fight, their relationship had progressed from being disliked, to more like big brother and younger sister.
Today, he did protect her, so shouldn’t she, like everyone else, acknowledge him as the boss?
Accommodating readily, Maureen immediately responded, “Liam.”
Liam..
Liam?
Hearing this name from the mouths of others like Niel didn’t bother Liam, he even thought it was mediocre.
But when he suddenly heard it from Maureen, his heart skipped a beat, and he blushed.
So…how adorable.
Liam’s mood, having been on a rollercoaster ride, was now placated.
He covered his face with a book, lips curving into a subtle smile.
