Chapter 270,Coolest Girl in Town
When he said so, Elise’s face brightened up immediately. Right after, he continued, “You don’t look like you’re having trouble looking for a boyfriend, so why are you hitting on someone else’s boyfriend? This could be some kind of disorder. You should see a doctor.” At that moment, Janice was boiling with anger. Though he’s good-looking, he has a sharp tongue. It’s no wonder that he fell in love with someone ugly like Elise. “Hmph! You must be blind. I think you’re the one who should see a doctor,” she retorted rudely. Then, Elise defended him aggressively.
“You’re either mentally retarded or have a personality problem. You can’t stand seeing other people doing better than you, and you always like to take other people’s things. Does it make you feel better taking other people’s things, or do you think you deserve to get everything you want? You’re delusional, you know?” With that, Elise ignored Janice and dragged Alexander away without looking back. As Janice watched the couple leave, she stomped her foot. “I’ll beat you one day, Elise!” Alexander had a smile on his face all the while he and Elise were walking away.
He realized that she could be fiery and direct at times and was pretty good at telling people off. Just then, she stopped in her tracks and let go of his hand. “What’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood?” He stared at her. Biting her lip, she shook her head and lifted her eyes to look at him. “Was I too mean? You won’t hate me for being like that, will you?” “Why would you think that? Do I seem that shallow? You have to accept someone for who they are if you love them. Besides, I like how you became jealous earlier because I finally know that I matter to you,” he said after noticing her becoming emotional.
Hearing this, she smiled. Then, she snorted in denial. “Who said I was jealous? I wasn’t jealous.” Just then, a warm kiss landed on her lips. She froze, yet the corner of her lips couldn’t help but tug upward before she slowly closed her eyes. Moments later, he finally let her go. Hand in hand, they strolled through the campus trail. “Do you know which kind of relationships I used to admire the most?” Curious, he asked, “Which kind?” “I admire high school sweethearts who end up marrying each other. It’s so pure and wonderful!” she replied. “What about us? Don’t you like what we have?”
Looking at him, she answered, “Of course I do! It’s just that I used to dream of marrying my high school sweetheart, but it’s fine! After all, things don’t always go as planned. Anyway, what we have is pretty great.” With that, the two held hands and continued to walk. They looked like they were made for each other and seemed to be in a happy relationship from the back. The next day, Elise continued with her vigorous training. Fortunately, Janice never bothered Elise again ever since the other day and would make a detour every time she bumped into Elise.
Soon, the seven-day training ended. Though it wasn’t obvious, Elise felt as if she had lost a lot of weight. Everyone was determined to focus on their studies after the training. Unlike high school, university life was less stressful, and there weren’t any teachers that would urge them to study. It all depended on self motivation. After completing a calculus equation, she picked a book unrelated to what she was studying to read. When night fell, she packed her books and left the library, Just as she opened the door, she heard Ricky’s voice. “What should we do?
No one in our department studies this minority language. I’m so worried.” Addison tried reading the densely packed words on the page. “I don’t understand anything here. Arisian is just too unpopular.” As Elise put down her bag, she questioned, “What are you guys talking about?” “Here, Ricky’s new assignment. She needs to translate an Arisian article, but nobody in our year studies this language, so she’s frustrated.” Upon hearing this, Elise stopped what she was doing. “Arisian?” Ricky let out a sigh. Then, her eyes lit up. “Erudite Elise, do you know Arisian?”
At that moment, Elise had no choice but to say, “Let me take a look.” Swiftly, Ricky handed Elise a stack of A4 papers. “Do you understand?” Though there was a hopeful look on Ricky’s face, she understood that very few people knew Arisian. Taking the papers, Elise flipped through them. After taking a brief look, she lifted her eyes and glanced at Ricky before saying, “This seems pretty easy!” Hearing Elise’s words, Ricky jumped and rushed forward to hug Elise. “Save my poor soul, please!” Ricky was hugging Elise so tightly that she almost ran out of breath.
“Alright. Let me go already. I’ll give it a try.” It was only then that Ricky let go of Elise and stared at her with a pleading look. Right after, Elise explained, “These two aren’t difficult as they’re just some basic vocabulary. The last one is a bit more challenging as they have technical terms. When do you need it? I’ll try to translate it as soon as possible.” Ricky was thrilled when she heard this. “That’s awesome! I’m not in a hurry. I just need it by the end of this week. Thank you, Elise! You’re an all-rounded genius!” “No problem! I’ll have it translated soon.”
Elise chuckled and shook her head. Then, Ricky let out a sigh of relief after solving this big problem. Meanwhile, Elise took a pen and started translating. This article isn’t difficult compared to the commercial article that Alexander gave me. In less than two hours, she had finished translating the first article. Putting her pen away, Elise stretched her back. As for Addison, she was busy playing games on her phone, filling the dormitory with the sound of her game. When Elise came out of the shower, she heard Addison shriek. “Ah!” Frightened, Elise rushed over quickly and asked, “What happened, Addy?” “I won! I just won and scored a Pentakill! This is so cool!” Hearing this, Elise was speechless.
Then, she asked, “What are you playing? You seem so excited.” Smiling cheekily, Addison told Elise, “League of Legends.” Elise snorted. Then, Addison went on, “I haven’t been playing very long, but I’m on level 30 already. I heard there’s a big shot called Ellimane in this game. They’re really smooth and skilled. I’ve watched videos of them playing. They’re amazing!” Amused, Elise glanced at Addison and asked, “Do you like them so much?”
“I can’t say that I like them, but they’re really skilled at playing the game and always lead their teammates to victory. I’d win without any effort and level up really fast if I were part of their team,” Addison answered honestly. As Addison spoke, she completely ignored the changes on Elise’s face. Right after, Addison asked, “Do you play games?”
“I do, but I haven’t played in a long time. I’ll play with you next time.” “Sure! Tell me when you’re online! I’ll talk to you later. My teammates are calling me. I’m going to play another two rounds, so you should sleep first.” Seeing how engrossed Addison was with the game, Elise decided not to bother her anymore.
