Chapter 72: What are you guys gossiping about??
Since she arrived back home she decided from that day on, Liam was a very important friend.
Worrying about him was nothing but natural.
“You go sit on another seat.”
Liam raised his eyebrow, looking at her discontented, “I don’t have a place to lie down anymore.”
“I won’t.”
Maureen insisted, still sitting without moving, “I only have two pieces of tissue paper.
After cleaning up this park bench, I don’t have a napkin to clean up anything else.
If I sit on another chair, I’ll get dust all over my butt.”
Maureen didn’t ask about his fear of dogs, and Liam didn’t mention it either.
This can be considered a tacit understanding between the two.
Liam felt that if Maureen wanted to talk about her family matters, she would tell him.
But if she didn’t want to, why bother unearthing it.
Maureen felt that if Liam didn’t want others to know he was afraid of dogs, he must have his own reasons.
She didn’t need to relentlessly pursue the matter.
To Liam, Maureen was someone who cared for him, paid attention to him, and wanted to cling to him.
Maureen was like that one person who could always tear a hole in the darkness and barged in carelessly.
Life was indeed hard.
But with the presence of ‘little mask,’ it seemed a little sweeter.
Liam struggled to hold back his upward-curving mouth, a warm feeling unconsciously spilled out from his heart.
The stiffness throughout his body seemed to have melted away.
Suddenly, Liam said,
“Forget it.” Maureen asked,
“Why?”
Liam responded,
“Let’s go downstairs.”
If they didn’t go down now, it could get ‘little mask’ scolded by the Classroom teacher.
Maureen hesitated for a moment.
Has Liam calmed himself down already?
As soon as the two went downstairs, they were indeed scolded by their Classroom teacher,
Mr.
Logan.
While scolding, he was also worried about delaying Maureen’s studies, so he let her go and continued to reprimand Liam.
Liam:
“…” When Liam finally returned to the classroom, Niel did not dare to raise his head to look at him.
Although Liam claimed to have slept well the night before, he spent the entire next day sleeping.
He hated noise, so he wore his noise-cancelling headphones the entire time, with a frown on his face.
After class, Maureen agreed with the Donald family to have dinner.
Knowing that she was a boarding student, in order to make it more convenient for her, Aunt Donald chose an African restaurant.
To Maureen, the Donald family was very close to her.
There was nothing bad to say about the things related to her family, so Maureen talked to them in detail about her recent situation in the last two years.
Of course, she hid some things that would make the Donald family indignant, only mentioning that she had recently cut ties with the Smith family.
…
On the other hand, Liam, was still in the classroom.
Niel saw him packing his schoolbag and could not help but whisper an apology, “Liam, I didn’t know–”
“Stop.”
Liam said indifferently,
“Let’s put this matter behind us.
Please don’t bring the dog again.”
Niel hastily nodded.
Niel thought he had known Liam for quite a while, does two years count as long?
But sometimes he still felt like he didn’t fully understand him.
However, since Niel mentioned that this matter has been turned over, then it is turned over.
Niel sighed in relief.
“By the way,” Liam remembered the look of the guy named Laurel from the school competition team who had been staring at Maureen from the window this morning.
He was not very pleased and couldn’t help asking,
“What’s the deal with that guy from the school competition team?”
Upon hearing this, Niel instantly knew who he was asking about and said hurriedly,
“You mean the one Maureen talked about the other day, right?
He knows Maureen?” Niel looked at Niel suspiciously and asked, “Are you hiding something from me?” Niel: “…”
“Liam, did Maureen miss out on a bottle in the bag of medicinal liquor she gave you?”
Noticing this, Niel quickly changed the subject.
Liam, rummaged through the bag of medicinal liquor on the desk, and found that a bottle of alcohol was missing, probably left in the restroom.
He glared at Niel and said, “We’ll settle this when I get back.”
After saying that, he turned around and left the classroom.
Niel breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed behind Liam.
However, just as Liam and Niel were about to reach the bathroom door, they suddenly heard the name ‘Maureen’ from inside.
It was obviously some boys discussing Maureen behind her back.
Upon seeing Liam’s expression sour, Niel saw him lift his foot to step in, only to hear the next sentence—
“Maureen’s desserts are really tasty; the period when she was desperately pursuing Richard was the best, we had desserts every day.
Now that she’s having issues with Richard, we’re out of luck.”
“The inter-school competition is coming soon, she will go to training with our school’s competition team then.
I wonder if she will reconcile with Richard.”
“She chased Richard for two years.
Just as it seemed like Richard was about to relent, it’s impossible for her to give up halfway, right?”
“Do you think she has given up or is she still using that Williams son to make Richard jealous?
Ethan said she seems to have really given up…” “…”
What was said afterward, Niel didn’t dare to listen.
The air was almost suffocating.
The evening corridor was naturally gloomy.
Now, with the impending rainstorm, it seemed even darker under the dense clouds.
He watched as Liam’s face visibly turned paler by the minute.
…
It was over.
Niel felt a sense of despair, the thing he feared most had happened.
“What are they saying?”
Liam had a face etched with foreboding, as if a storm was imminent.

Niel hurriedly intervened,
“They’re just spreading rumors!
None of it is true!”
“Of course, I don’t believe it!
Maureen (Little Mask) is not like that.”
Liam’s fisted hands were subtly trembling, he was panting heavily.
He grabbed Niel’s collar and shoved him aside, then charged inside the next second.
“What the hell are you guys gossiping about, dare to say it again.”
