Chapter 1021


    In fact, Anthea had just arrived at the restaurant.


    After ss in the afternoon, students would have two hours as their spare time before the self-study


    ss began at night. Usually, they were not allowed to go outside of the campus during this period,


    and their dinners were always eaten in the school canteen. This evening, Anthea had actually


    climbed over the wall in a remote corner and stealthily left the school to be able to dine out together


    with Adam.


    She sent a message to Adam, saying that she wanted to treat him to a meal.


    After all, Adam had done her such a big favor. Anthea thought she should express her gratitude to


    him. Fortunately, he didn''t refuse her suggestion.


    After Adam sat down on the opposite side, the waitress served the dishes one after another, and all


    of them were ced on the table in order. The restaurant was not big and it was near the school,


    and therefore the price of the food was very cheap. As Anthea didn''t know what he liked to eat, she


    simply ordered half a serving of almost every type of food.


    "Uncle, thank you very much for helping me again today. You''re just my lucky star!" Anthea looked


    at him with sparkling eyes and said seriously.


    "You''re wee." Adam replied in a low voice.


    "You... Don''t you think I''m a very troublesome girl?" Anthea bit her lips and pinched her own fingers


    under the table as she was slightly nervous.


    "No, I won''t." Adam shook his head.


    Anthea blinked her eyes and asked, "Really?"


    "Yes." Adam''s lips twitched.


    Seeing that Adam was in a good mood, Anthea''s eyes became brighter, while her little face was


    almost shining. Her pink and tender lips curbed into a faint smile, revealing two dimples. It seemed


    that getting Adam''s positive reply was something really worth being happy about.


    Cigarette smoking was not banned in the restaurant, and some guests were smoking there. Adam


    also took out a cigarette and lit it.


    He spat out a mouthful of smoke, and his throat felt a little itchy. Then, he coughed twice.


    Seeing this, Anthea immediately asked, "Uncle, are you having a cold?"


    "Well... It''s not serious at all." Adam replied casually.


    Anthea nodded and looked at the cigarette in his hand. "You''d better not smoke at all!"


    When Adam heard this, he wanted to say that smoking was not that bad, but when she firmly


    looked straight at him, he sumbed and put out the burning cigarette in the ashtray.


    While Anthea was throwing the beef into the boiling pot, she secretly peeped at Adam from time to


    time, to see whether thetter intended to smoke again or not.


    When Adam was eating, he looked almost the same as usual, and he maintained a poker face all


    the time. It seemed as if his personal style was not smiling at all. He was a professional military


    officer. For this reason, while he was sitting in front of the dining table at this moment, he looked


    very imposing, and no sign of ckness orziness could be observed in him..


    In the eighteen years of Anthea''s life, she had never met a man like him.


    To be more specific, a little girl liked Anthea had never met a man like Adam.


    Anthea swallowed the beef tripe in her mouth and stared at Adam''s firm and resolute facial features


    for a while. She couldn''t help but ask, "Uncle, can I ask you a question?"


    Seeing that Anthea was serious, Adam nodded and said, "Go ahead." "Can you smile at me now?"


    Anthea asked from the bottom of her heart.


    The so-called "Hell-king" in the army,


    As the atmosphere became a little awkward, Anthea quickly changed the topic. "Uncle, don''t you


    think the hotpot foods are very delicious? I like them very much. Ever since I transferred to Vaden


    High School, I havee here almost every week with my roommates! I really love it."


    "Uh-huh." Adam said in a low voice.


    In fact, he didn''t like hotpot foods very much, and he seldom ate them. He simply felt that they''re too


    complicated. If a great variety of foods were cooked in the hotpot, no matter how expensive they


    were, they would just be a great hotpot of mixed meal, and Adam didn''t like them.


    However, Anthea, who was sitting opposite to him, felt that the hotpot foods were just so delicious!


    From time to time, she would fan her mouth with her hand because the foods were hot and spicy.


    Her mouth was full of delicious beef, prawns, cabbage... and her hands were always busy moving


    for more of them.


    What Anthea did made Adam felt hungry, and he held out his chopsticks more frequently.


    At the end of the meal, Anthea suddenly smiled in a sneaky way. "Uncle, I find that you are a very


    powerful man!"


    "Hum?" Adam lifted his eyebrows.


    "You havee to our school just once, and then solved all my problems. You met the dean''s


    requirement of negotiating with my parents. You asked the principal to make an announcement in


    front of all the students and teachers to defend my reputation. Thank you so much! You are


    awesome!"


    Anthea looked up at him with a ttering face. "My admiration for you is just like the turbulent flow of


    the Amazon River, and also like the flood of the Nile which is out of control! Your image in my heart


    is so brilliant that I can''t find words to express my feelings. You are really my lucky man !"


    Adam picked up the cup of lemonade next to him.


    After listening to the exaggerated praises from her, he felt like she must have a big n hidden in


    her words.


    Sure enough, Anthea rolled her charming eyes and smiled more cunningly. "Hehe... Uncle Chin...


    Can you just do me a favor?"


    Coming out of the hotpot restaurant, Anthea touched the wallet inside her pocket in an embarrassed


    manner.


    Just now, when Anthea wanted to pay the bill, she was stopped by Adam, who finally paid the bill


    for her. She had indeed promised to treat him to dinner in order to thank him, but she hadn''t


    expected that he would treat her in the end.


    There was still half an hour before the self-study ss at night began. The restaurant was very


    close to the school, and therefore there would be plenty of time.


    Adam told Anthea he would drive her back to the school. Just as she was about to open the car


    door, she suddenly halted and said, "Uncle, please wait for me for a while. I need to buy


    something!"


    After that, she turned back quickly and ran away.


    When Adam saw this, he started the engine. He then drove the jeep out of the parking lot and


    parked it on the roadside to wait for her.


    About five or six minutester, the slender figure of Anthea ran back, and she slipped back into the


    passenger seat. Her hands were inserted in the pockets of her coat, and the pockets appeared to


    be a little bulging. Adam thought that she must have gone to the supermarket to buy some snacks,


    and therefore he didn''t pay much attention to it.


    "Uncle, let''s stop behind the school!"


    ording to her suggestion, Adam drove the jeep from the front gate to the back of the school.


    A red wall of the school could now be seen by them.


    When Adam looked at her meaningfully, Anthea felt shy, and she nervously tossed her long hair.


    He jumped out of the jeep with her and asked with a frown, ''Are you sure you can do it?"


    "Very sure!" Anthea nodded and confirmed, "Uncle, I''ll go back to study now!"

    She ran two steps forward and suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She turned back,


    put her hands into her pockets again, and said, "By the way... This is for you!"


    As Anthea handed two boxes of medicine over to him, Adam was amused.


    Anthea exined, "I think your coughing symptoms are still not serious now. You''d better take some


    medicines, or they may be serious!"


    "You bought the medicines just now?" Adam''s pupils shrank slightly and he asked in surprise.


    "Uh-huh!" Anthea nodded and replied, "This box is for controlling the flu symptoms, and the other is


    for relieving the inmmation. You should take one pill each time, and two times every day! I''m


    going back. Be careful on the road. Bye!"


    It was already toote. As soon as she finished speaking, Anthea waved her hand and ran to the


    wall.


    The red wall was built of bricks and was nearly two meters in height, which might not pose any


    problem for a tall and strong man like Adam. Although Anthea was 166cm in height, it still appeared


    to be difficult for her to climb up and cross the wall.


    Unexpectedly, the slender figure climbed up and crossed the wall in an experienced manner.


    Adam burst intoughter, and he thought Anthea was so cute!


    Leaning against the jeep, he lowered his head and looked at the medicine boxes in his palms. He


    was deeply moved by what the little had done to him, and his face seemed to have been caressed


    by the spring breeze. His Adam''s apple rolled up and down as he swallowed.
