Chapter156:TheFirstTimeBeingAskedforContactInformation?


    Wow! This was truly an unprecedented event.


    Previously, no matter when, because of Benjamin’s strikingly handsome appearance, he would always


    be the first to catch people’s attention. But now, his face seemed to have lost its effect??


    Instead, it was Simon who immediately caught someone’s eye!


    Martina couldn’t help but look at the two of them more closely and noticed that Simon’splexion


    seemed a bit unnatural. If she guessed correctly, he must be experiencing this situation for the first


    time!


    Despite Simon not being very old, he was somewhat conservative in certain aspects.


    Especially when he was following Benjamin, he became even more conservative. No wonder his ears


    turned red the moment a girl said “hey boy” to him. That was just innocent and pure!


    Even Martina was stunned. Who could have imagined that Simon, who usually acted swiftly and


    decisively, so much like Benjamin, could have such a different side?!


    Simon couldn’t even dare to look at the young girl in the eyes, the contrast with his usual professional


    demeanor was just too vast!


    “Miss, you don’t have to say that. I was just following orders,” Simon meant that he was simply carrying


    out his boss’s instructions and acting on behalf of Miss Martinez.


    However, the young girl didn’t understand! In her eyes, Simon had saved her, making him her savior. If


    it weren’t for him, she would definitely have faced grave consequences, and not only that, she might


    even have lost her life! But because of him, she was given a chance to start anew.


    Who said all men were trash? There were good men too, she just met the wrong one before!


    The girl gathered all her courage and reached out her hand, cing it in front of Simon,


    “Hello, my name is Grace. I’m very d to meet you. Could you tell me your name?”


    Grace’s gaze was sincere, and after wiping away her tears, her eyes still had a hint of redness, like a


    little rabbit that had been bullied.


    Although she wasn’t gorgeous, she was a very adorable girl. The kind of cuteness that would catch


    people’s attention even in a crowd. Her innocent appearance, entuated by her big almond–shaped


    eyes, contrasted with Simon’s shrewd personality. Perhaps, theirbination could be an interesting


    match?


    In almost an instant, Martina made a roughparison of their appearances, personalities, and


    intelligence. In the end, she realized that these two were a perfect match!


    It was a good thing she didn’t intervene just now. She practically handed Simon the chance to be the


    hero who saved the beauty, didn’t she?


    “I… I’m Simon. Hello, Miss Grace,” Simon spoke awkwardly, no longer as rxed and at ease as he


    usually was in front of Benjamin.


    Grace pouted in dissatisfaction, “Can’t you just call me by my name directly?”


    “Simon, Thank you for saving me. Can we exchange contact information?” Grace’s pleading eyes


    made Simon feel a flutter of emotion, as if his heart was stirred by her request.


    Simon couldn’t bring himself to refuse and turned to Martina for help, “Miss Martinez…”


    In situations like this, others couldn’t be of much help. He could only rely on himself to make a decision.


    Then he looked at Benjamin, “Boss…”


    Maybe it was due to a shift in Benjamin’s mindset, which led to a change in his feelings toward his


    subordinates. After all, Simon had been following Benjamin for quite some time, yet he had never been


    in a romantic rtionship.


    Simon was already 27 years old now, although not considered too old, if he dyed any longer, he


    would be approaching thirty. It wouldn’t be easy to find a wife then. Should he end up like himself,


    unable to find anyone and regretting itter?


    Benjamin chose to ignore everything and didn’t even spare a nce at Simon. Instead, he focused on


    Martina, gently brushing away a strand of hair from her face. The coldness in his starry eyes had faded


    away, reced by a tender and affectionate gaze, revealing the softer side of Benjamin.


    When he had a genuine dislike for something, it was undeniable, but once he developed a fondness for


    something, he became unstoppable.


    Sometimes, even Benjamin himself might not have realized that such a situation could happen. He


    didn’t even know he could have such an expression on his face.


    Simon was utterly helpless. Grace took advantage of the situation, “Simon, just add me, okay? I


    promise I won’t bother you!”


    “Since you saved me today, at least let me take you out for a meal as a way to show my gratitude.


    Otherwise, I’ll feel guilty for the rest of my life,” she continued.


    As Grace spoke, she somehow pulled out a band–aid from somewhere and got closer to Simon by two


    steps.


    Startled, Simon took several steps backward. He had never encountered such a situation before.


    However, the more Simon retreated, the more Grace followed. Soon, Simon found himself backed


    against arge tree with nowhere else to go.


    Grace smiled genuinely, then suddenly tore open the band–aid and stuck it on Simon’s forehead.


    Apparently, Simon had identally injured his forehead at some point. Although it was just a two–


    millimeter cut, it was bleeding. If left unattended, it might have healed on its own.

    Grace stood on her tiptoes and gently blew on Simon’s wound, saying, “This way, it won’t hurt


    anymore.”


    Simon couldn’t bring himself to say anything.


    So Grace did all this just to put a band–aid on herself?


    It was the first time in Simon’s life that someone treated him like this, and he felt very ufortable!


    Grace sped her hands behind her back, her adorable face beaming with a smile,pletely


    different from the way she looked when she was almost bullied earlier.


    “So, can you add me on SnapChat now?” Grace asked. “I’m really grateful to you!”


    Simon opened his mouth but suddenly realized that his repertoire of words was surprisingly limited. He


    couldn’t even muster a basic sentence.


    Luckily, Grace got what she wanted and added Simon on SnapChat.


    Seeing Simon looking so stunned, Grace couldn’t help butugh. “Simon, you seem quite nervous. Is


    this your first time being asked for contact information by a girl?”


    Simon couldn’t say anything, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t true.


    Seeing through Simon’s thoughts, Grace’s heart blossomed with joy. All the things about her recent


    heartbreak and the almost–bullying incident werepletely forgotten. Instead, she was filled with the


    image of Simon heroicallying to her rescue, a scene that lingered in her mind for a long time…
