Everyone, listen.
I've always been the victim of false rumors.
Today, I finally turned the tables!
Paving my own path while leaving others with nowhere to go.
The principal was stunned.
"I never imagined you were this kind of person!"
The CEO was completely panicked.
"Principal, please, let me explain."
As he stepped forward, the principal jumped back with a furious shout:
"I'm calling security to release the dogs and kick you out!"
Me: "Why reward him?"
The principal paused for two seconds and corrected himself:
"I'm calling security to kick you out!"
The CEO was indeed escorted off the premises.
Before leaving, he still managed to cast a longing glance at the female lead.
But Maribel had no time for him. She clutched the terrier tightly, her face guarded, worried the humiliated CEO might lash out at the dog in revenge.
On the way home.
Maribel's eyes sparkled as she said, "Mom, you were right. You're so smart—you saw through him and knew his type was... dogs."
Stay humble.
"Sometimes your mom accidentally reaches the pinnacle of wisdom."
Suddenly—
Bang!
The car jolted.
We had collided with a black van.
I got out, ready to argue, when four or five burly men stepped out of the other vehicle. Each had a menacing look, their intentions clear.
The man leading them wore a black tank top, revealing a massive French tattoo on his chest which names:
"I love shit."
As a PhD graduate fluent in French, I was momentarily rendered speechless.
How many times must it be said?
Reading more books never hurts.
The enthusiast for excrement approached angrily, glanced at our car, and shouted:
"My car's damaged! Pay up!"
His words matched his taste—utterly inconsiderate.
Clearly, they had been the ones to cut us off. They should be paying us instead.
I was about to launch into an eloquent critique of his families when Maribel got out of the car as well.
"Mom, what happened?"
Her soft voice and delicate oval face were captivating.
The man froze, instantly smitten.
"Wanna date?"
Excuse me?
Don't be ridiculous!
Then it hit me.
This was the third male lead—a gangster kingpin with half the criminal code under his belt.
In the original story, after his car accidentally collided with the female lead's, he demanded compensation. When she couldn't pay, he suggested... other means of repayment.
What a beast!
Time to call the cops.
The gangster's eyes locked on Maribel, drooling shamelessly. She glanced at him, her expression quickly turning complicated.
I taught her French before, she was instantly struck by his tattoo.
Such a young age, yet subjected to two profound shocks in a single day.
The diversity of human romantic preferences was astonishing.
First, the CEO's obsession with dogs.
Now this.
Respect.
But no blessings.
The gangster grinned wickedly.
"Fine. Don't pay. Just give me your daughter as compensation."
"Dream on!"
He scowled.
"Don't displease me! You... woman..."
He looked me over, then added:
"You're not bad either."
What?
I immediately pulled out my phone and called the police.
