If hearing the girls' conversation didn't piss Han Luo and Beth off, this time they definitely got mad after seeing Larry.
Larry was wearing green swimming trunks. His brown hair was wet and his blonde locks draped on his forehead probably because he bathed a while ago. His sapphire blue eyes were reflecting the beautiful girl who was standing right in front of him.
Han Luo curtly replied, "An idiot like you won't understand the value of good teaching. Why bother?"
Larry stepped forward and smiled eerily. "Luo, why are you being upset? We had good chemistry a few months ago."
The gossip girls who were sitting not so far away suddenly stopped talking and eavesdropped.
Han Luo crossed her arms and coldly said, "Chemistry? My taste hasn't fallen so low that I have to be an acquaintance of a criminal, let alone have good chemistry."
Larry's face turned red in anger. His eyes were viciously gazing at her.
Although he was the same age as hers, Han Luo was his senior. Even so, he never cared about that. When he targeted something or someone he never cared about their ages.
Right now, his target was Han Luo and he would stop for nothing to get her – that's what he promised to himself.
Because of his resolve, he skipped his classes and came here to have fun with his seniors.
He thought she was a docile girl. He didn't expect her to have such a sharp tongue.
Han Luo was rather loud when she spoke. Almost everyone in the café could hear what she said.
The eavesdroppers gasped in surprise. Their eyes were full of disbelief. They whispered –
"What?! A criminal!"
"Was Larry always like that?"
"I can't believe it!"
"But Luo wouldn't lie, would she? She is such a kind girl…"
"Of course, I trust Luo. I know her far better than I know Larry. I mean… he is a womanizer, after all. Anything is possible."
"If he is a criminal, I wonder what he did."
Han Luo and Beth were glaring at Larry while he was listening to the girls' conversation. He didn't think about anything else.
Blinded by anger, he strode forward and attempted to grab Han Luo's arm.
At that time, Han Luo quickly moved away at the right time and stuck out her leg.
Larry wasn't expecting this. He stumbled on her leg and fell forward.
In front of him was Beth. Although she tried to hurriedly step back, she wasn't successful.
Just in two seconds, she saw Larry's face smashing against her hands with a dumbfounded expression. In the next second, her ice cream was gone.
Students these days aren't polite. No one reached out to help him. On the contrary, they laughed out loud.
Han Luo pretended to cover her mouth in surprise and hastily said, "Oh my! I didn't think you would fall. I'm so sorry I couldn't grab you sooner."
Although she seemed sorry, she didn't reach out her hand.
Other students were so busy enjoying the scenario that they didn't have the time to observe her expression.
Beth finally came back to her senses and lamented, "Oh no! My ice cream and my cherry!"
Han Luo patted her back and told her, "I'll buy you another one. Let's forgive our poor junior. He did his best to entertain us. We can let him have your ice cream."
Beth asked her, "Why don't you let him have your ice cream as well?"
Han Luo pretended to think deeply about it before answering, "…I don't think his joke is high quality enough to deserve two ice creams. It will be such a waste."
'I can mentally see her devil horns,' Beth thought in her mind. She agreed to Han Luo's request, "Let's buy another ice cream."
After they left the café, they saw Han Sheng Ming win against the juniors. He cheerfully taught them some new techniques.
Han Luo looked at the ocean and saw Mo Yuan and Jared surfing.
On the shore, girls were betting on who was going to win.
"I bet on Yuan! He is so damn handsome!"
"I bet on Jared. He is more athletic than Yuan. I mean, the only thing Yuan ever did was play the piano. He never showed us his physical strength. It could be that he is weak."
I bet on Jared too."
"But, Yuan seems to have the upper hand. I'm not sure about Jared guys, I'll bet on Yuan."
"…" Han Luo's lips twitched upon hearing their conversations.
She talked to herself in her mind, 'Weak? Big brother Yuan?! They can't be serious. If they only used their brain while observing his chest, they could easily tell that he worked out every day, unlike other students.'
She looked at Beth and asked, "What will you do now?"
Beth answered, "I'll just look around and take some photos. I will swim at night. So, I'm not going to swim now."
"All right, suit yourself. I'm going to dive now," saying that Han Luo unbuttoned Han Sheng Ming's shirt that she was wearing. She took it off and handed it to Beth. "Keep this for me. When big brother Ming is done with his fun, give it back to him."
"You got it," Beth took the shirt.
Han Luo dived in the blue water. In the scorching heat, she felt really good in the cold water.
The blue ocean was calm. The current wasn't that strong aside from a few of the waves that were big and they were forcefully crashing on the shore from time to time.
While swimming, Han Luo went further away from the shore and ended up in a different place. Huge rocks covered this area. Just when she was thinking about going back, someone's strong arm wrapped around her naked waist.
