Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Domineering President and the Sister Between the Teeth
After listening to the system's words, Benjamin was silent. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This plot is too deep.
Thinking like this, he couldn't help but look at the girl who was surrounded by the wall. In the past, Benjamin was originally a soft persimmon, a soft persimmon pinched by a soft persimmon, how low should this girl's status be in the aristocratic circle?
The two boys around her, I'm afraid they didn't really want to invite her to dance.
It's kind of pathetic.
However, at this moment, the red-haired girl standing on the side suddenly pushed Benjamin, shook her head angrily, and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a person, and you wouldn't even go up to help her out." I really misread you, scumbag, goodbye!"
As she spoke, she shook her hair and strode away.
“......”
Some of the people around him also cast strange glances at him.
Benjamin felt innocent.
What can he do, blame the system for not telling Benjamin that he still has an ex-fiancée.
“...... Just gone, doesn't she even want her limited-edition bag?" The feeling of being a cheater lingered, and he could only distract himself a little by vomiting in his heart.
"Fifteen minutes have come, and people are stuck in seconds. The system replied.
“......”
Awesome.
Benjamin shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and stopped paying attention to the red-haired girl, and returned to his ex-fiancée, Elizabeth. I saw that the two aristocratic men were still around her, and they didn't let her go.
Seeing this, Benjamin couldn't help frowning.
This is bullying girls.
Soon, Benjamin made a decision. There was no other meaning, he really couldn't sit idly by in this book. He'd have to help her out.
With that in mind, he put the champagne in his hand to the table and walked over.
"Hey, Sister Tooth, look around, who is willing to dance with you? We invited you to dance, it's already your honor, you dare to refuse?"
On the wall, one of the aristocratic men confronted Elizabeth, talking as he drew closer and closer to her.
That's when it happened.
"Who said no one wants to dance with her. ”
Benjamin said as he walked over and pushed him away with one hand. The aristocratic man was defenseless, and was pushed so that he staggered a few steps and almost fell.
Then, without everyone reacting, he smiled and extended his hand to Elizabeth:
"Beautiful lady, please forgive me for my faux pas, can you please dance with me?"
Seriously, after doing this series of actions, Benjamin really has the illusion that he has suddenly turned into a domineering president, saving Cinderella in distress.
The people around were very gossipy, attracted by this scene, and looked like they were watching a good show.
......The aristocratic man who was pushed away seemed a little angry, but when he turned his head and saw Benjamin's face, the words in his mouth were choked at once.
"This lady doesn't want to dance with you, you're still pestering here, and you're out of grace. Benjamin said to the two men with a cold face.
He wasn't afraid of the two of them clashing with him. The military camp life during this period also gave him a certain degree of confidence in his skills.
Listening to Benjamin's words, the expression on the aristocratic man's face was cloudy, as if he was hesitating. The other patted him on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, my father said, don't let us mess with Grant Reese, let's go." ”
He spoke quietly, but Benjamin was close enough to hear him.
“......”
It's Grant again.
So how much does he look like Grant, and why does everyone who sees him mistake him for Grant?
Benjamin was still secretly slandering in his heart, but the aristocratic man was persuaded by his companions. He looked at Benjamin and Elizabeth again with a slightly unwilling expression, but still didn't say anything, and turned to leave.
The enthusiastic onlookers also showed disappointed expressions, looked away, and went their own way.
When Benjamin saw this, he suddenly felt that it was good to be mistaken for Grant.
At the very least, he managed to avoid a boring and clichéd conflict.
"I'm sorry, I should have come over earlier to help you. He turned to face Elizabeth, touched his nose, and said a little embarrassed, "That...... Are you alright?"
Elizabeth stared at his face in a daze, and did not speak.
It was starting to feel weird to stare at Benjamin.
...... What's the situation?
Is there anything on his face?
However, this is also the first time he has seen the other person's appearance up close. After seeing it clearly, Benjamin's first feeling was doubt: this girl is not ugly, why was Benjamin so excited to divorce her in the past?
From Benjamin's current eyes, Elizabeth was a rather thin girl.
Her skin was pale, and there was not a trace of blood on her cheeks. The pale blonde hair was draped down from both halves, and it was also a golden gold that was so light that it was almost transparent, and her whole body seemed to turn into a puff of smoke and drift away. Her pupils were ice blue and light in color, making even staring at Benjamin feel like she was in a daze.
Although it's a little sickly, it's really not ugly, and if it's the kind of person who likes the cold type, maybe I'll like it very much. Benjamin really didn't get it.
If I had to find fault, it was that there was a gap between her two front teeth. She seems to like to look at people with her mouth half-open and show between her teeth, which also makes her expression look even more dumbfounded.
"Is it just because of the gap between the teeth?" said Benjamin, feeling strange, and couldn't help but ask in his heart.
The technology here is not developed, and no matter how good-looking people are, there will be more or less defects on their faces. And there is no plastic surgery assembly line, how can anyone's face be flawless.
It's a bit too much to humiliate people in public because of this......
"It doesn't really have to do with whether you look good or not. He could only hear the system explain in his mind, "At that time, I was still young, and school violence was unreasonable. As long as you are introverted, you will always be targeted by others. And once the rhythm is brought up, there are some names that you can hardly wash off. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin's heart suddenly changed.
He forgot to take his age and circumstances into account.
He couldn't help but think of a boy in his class when he was in middle school. In fact, that boy is quite handsome, but his mouth is slightly bigger than the average person. But because he was brought to the rhythm, that person was ridiculed for three whole years of "blood basin mouth". Even his girlfriend in the next class was brainwashed and dumped him because of his big mouth.
When the mind is not yet mature, people are not aware of how malicious this kind of thing is. They just think it's fun, but they never think about how much harm they will do to others.
Benjamin in the past was actually bullied. But it's like a food chain, he's being bullied, so he has to find someone who is a better bully to bully, improve his status a little, and prove that he's not the lowest existence.
Elizabeth, on the other hand, became an innocent victim of this whole incident, and the gap between the teeth was just an excuse.
Thinking of this, Benjamin felt that this girl was even more pitiful.
Although he didn't do these things himself, he became the new Benjamin after all, inheriting everything from Benjamin. Therefore, in the face of Elizabeth, he still has a trace of guilt.
If he had the chance, he would really have to make up for the girl.
Just as Benjamin was thinking this, Elizabeth finally ended her somewhat eerie gaze. She suddenly opened her mouth and said:
"You're not Grant, and Grant wouldn't be interested in helping me. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin smiled bitterly a few times and nodded: "I'm really not Grant, I'm Benjamin." ”
Everyone recognized him as Grant, but Elizabeth was not mistaken.
This reminded Benjamin of a sentence: "I know you when you turn to ashes." Benjamin's divorce may have left an indelible shadow on her heart.
Surprisingly, however, Elizabeth maintained her seemingly stunned expression, stared at Benjamin's face, and immediately said another sentence:
"You're not Benjamin either...... Who are you?"
