“I thought I'd live such a miserable life, but | was lucky to meet you again. God must have heard my prayers and gavesuch a big surprise. Lulu, | would've given up if | hadn’t seen you. But you're here, right next to me, alive. I like every part of you. | almost go crazy with joy.

He kept talking, but | had no intention of listening anymore. What he said just now was enough. He didn’t need to say much more.
| admitted that his words moved me.
“She's cute,” | said with a smile.
“What? Are you praising your love rival?” Matthew askedin disbelief.

“I don’t treat her as a love rival. She's really cute. At Ba much stronger than those scheming women who play dirty tricks behind me. | like her very much.” “So? Do you want to compete with her?” | smiled. “With you here, do | still need to fight?” Matthew grinned, and he looked a little proud. “Of course not.” The farce passed away peacefully.
When Helen cback that day, she was a little drunk and unsteady. | kindly went to help her, but she shook my hands off. Go away! | don’t want to be friends with my love rival!” She was so fierce! | felt a headache coming on. | planned to put her down and let her fend for herself.
“But what should | do? Luna, you're a good person. | don’t want to fight with you. I just can’t control myself. | would rather be a bad woman to get Matthew.” She clutched my pajamas, muttering that she didn’t want to be a mistress and didn’t want to makesad.

| had been seeing Matthew for more than half a month. He kept asking when he could become my boyfriend as he hold my wanted to hold hand and kiss me. But | always felt that it wasn't the right timing, so | rejected him every time. His hope lit up and dimmed repeatedly.
But he cared foreven more. He'd followaround constantly if I didn’t have to go to classes.
