Chapter 788The advanced strategy of picking up girls was to love everything they had and their loved onesIn fact, Chad wouldn't do so much if it were another girl. His family was rich, so even when he was afat man weighing 200 pounds three years ago, he had had a girlfriend who had thrown herself athimThis was the first time he had learned these strategies so seriously and had seemed so nervous tohim, this was much more difficult than taking the SAT now“Are you a member of the Wellens family? You used to be fat, right?” Betty askedShe was in the supermarket for vegetables and met a boy and then greeted him warmlyWhen Chad heard the word “fat” he felt a little ashamed. He hated that he had been so fat when heknew Christina. Her first impression of him was ruined,Christina had been in the same junior high school as him, but they were two grades apart She haddone well in SAT, and many parents had wanted to ask her to tutor their children. Although she wasonly a junior high school student then, she had had much experience in SAT. The Wellens family hadoffered a high price, so Christina had been Chad's tutor for a month.Betty remembered the Wellens family well. “Your name is Chad, right? Why have you suddenly lostso much weight?” Her tone was tinged with worry and sympathyChristina had asked the same question. Both of them suspected that he was seriously ill“I'm not sick. I'm very healthy. I've been on a diet and working out Chad smiled shyly at Betty andspoke in a gentle and polite tone.Betty had a good impression of him. Christina had complained repeatedly about how stupid fatChad was when she was his tutor, and Betty felt ashamed to see him being so well-brought up“Your family moved here?”Betty hadn't bought a house but lived in rented houses, When Christina started high school, Bettyhad moved here because it was close to the school. Ordinary people usually would not do it“No, we didn't, but my family has a house here. I'm at the same high school as Christina.”Chad was gentle. When he spoke to Betty, his elder, he had deliberately lowered his voice to showhis respect.Betty liked him now. “What a coincidence!”"We are classmates too. I have skipped grades! I'll take the SAT this year too.” His tone was modestBetty looked surprised and praised him. “Then you must be excellent at school. I didn't expect that.You used to be “Christina had complained about him for being stupid.After a brief chat, they became familiar. Chad offered to hold Betty's bag for her.They laughed and talked, mostly about Christina. Betty loved Christina, so she was happy to talkabout this.“She's so rough now. I'm worried that no one is gonna love her.”“It's all her grandfather's fault. When Christina was very young, other little girls went to learn violinand ballet. Her grandfather insisted on letting her learn karate and boxing, saying that she couldprotect herself. She did well in the... We don’t have to worry that she would be bullied, but shebullied others.”Betty was smiling when she recalled the past.Chad listened carefully and smiled.“Does Christina like strong boys very much?”They were queuing up at the checkout counter now, and Chad asked that, without showing his realemotions.“Actually, no. She likes to hang with not-so-strong boys too.” Christina had been close to Derekwhen they wereyoung“But she might not like weak men. Christina's grandfather used to be in the army and kind ofworshipped power. Christina is like her grandparent in this respect.”Betty said calmly without the intention of showing off her family background."Although I look weak now, I am strong. I can get stronger.” For some reason, Chad said this, as if hewas makinga promise.Chad immediately became embarrassed and felt that he was too impulsive.Betty turned to look at him in shock and smiled.Older people could see it when young people had a crush.Betty had no problem with this. She had no requirements for Christina's significant other. She justwanted him to be kind and love Christina.Perhaps because Betty herself didn't get married and would never do, she was afraid that Christinawould follow suit and often told her that it was okay to be in a relationship with a good young maneven when they were at high school.Today was Sunday, so Christina slept in at home.Hearing the sound of the door lock, she walked out, sleepy. “Aunt Betty, I'm hungryChad hadn't expected to see her in her pajamas when he entered the house. Unlike her usualappearance at school, she was like a spoiled child in front of her aunt and her voice was softerChad blushed and his heart beat faster.She looked so adorable when she had just woken up. Chad was even surprised to see Christinaacting like a child.“Yesterday, you said others were lazy. Look at you. Your hair is so messy. You are being polite. Hurryup and go into the room to wash up and brush your hair”Today, someone visited them. Betty almost forgot what Christina was like and asked her back to herbedroom. Christina had forgotten all her etiquette learned in the Dickens family. If she went backone day, she would be in trouble.“I'm sorry. I didn't teach her well.” Betty blamed herself for thisChad smiled at her and carried the fruits and vegetables Betty had bought into the small kitchen. Heeven offered to wash and cut the fruits. He did not treat himself as an outsider at all,Betty was surprised to see him like this, but she was also happy She thought it was good forChristina to have another friend.Christina washed her face and was more awake. When she came out again, she saw Chad. “Why areyou at my home?” She sounded that Chad was not welcomed here,“Mind your manners!”Betty who was cooking in the kitchen waved a spatula at her and scolded her.Christina's face darkened. She looked at Chad, who was an intruder to her now, with a vicious lookin her eyes. Chad said with a calm expression, “I went to the supermarket and happened to meetAunt Betty”He sounded natural when he addressed Betty as his aunt.Although Christina was close with Crystal and Cindy, she had never invited them home. She felt thatonly her relatives could come hereChristina rarely took others seriously and had a clear line when she got along with others. Betty hadbeen worried about her. She thought it was because they had broken off relations with the Dickensfamily that Christina had had a hard time trusting others.Betty made three dishes and a soup, which were not so delicious.They were just simple home-cooked meals, but Chad ate with relish. Betty was very happy to seehim so supportive.“You don't have to do this!"After dinner, Chad went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and Betty immediately rushed in to stophim.She turned around and saw Christina lying on the old sofa lazily without moving once.Betty put a hand on her forehead and sighed. She regretted bringing her out of the Dickens familyagain.Chad was such a good young man. Betty was really ashamed.“Christina, didn’t you say you had two movie tickets? Go to the movies with Chad. Have some fun atthe weekend. Look at yourself. When you grow up and get married, your in-laws will dislike you..."Christina knew her aunt was going to nag her again.She didn't understand why, unlike other parents, her aunt kept telling her to have a relationship inhigh school.“I am annoyed to see you. Get out,” urged Betty.Christina held two tickets for a horror movie, which the owner of the drink shop had given her. Shehad planned to go with her aunt, but her aunt said she couldnt stand the bloody, scary scenes.Christina looked at Chad beside her with a discontented look. She had intended to sell these twomovie tickets.“Where's the cinema?”"At the Central Square. I'm going to hail a cab.” Chad took a closer look at the movie tickets. He wasso excited that he ignored her look.He deliberately went to the supermarket today to meet Christina's aunt. He had analyzed that hewould be likely to be rejected if he were to tell Christina his feelings for her. The best way was to winthe support of those around her.First, he would win her best friends over, so he got to be a part of her gang. Then he would win herfamily over. Christina seemed to be obedient to her aunt, which was really great.Chad couldn't help but put on a silly smile, feeling that his future was bright. If she were to bescared while watching the horror movie, she might hold his hand and even hug him.“Are you have a stomach upset?” Christina suddenly asked him with concern.Her aunt was not very good at cooking, and occasionally she would have diarrhea. Chad wasanything but apicky eater. He had eaten so much just now.Chad's ears turned redder after being stared at by her. He turned his head awkwardly and blamedhimself for getting cocky. He still had a long way to go and had to work hard.“I'm going to buy Coke and popcorn.” As he spoke, he ran nervously into the crowd.Chad thought to himself that this might be his fate. He was pampered at home, but every time hewas embarrassed in front of Christina. He couldn't control himself and even enjoyed beingembarrassed.A flashy bright blue Porsche sports car sped past.“Student couples in C City are quite good-looking.”When they passed by a cinema, Chandler, who had just returned from abroad, sitting in the backseat, caught a glimpse of some young couples and found a pretty young woman.Charles answered casually as he drove, “C City is a good place with abundant pretty ladies.”He floored the throttle, heading to East River Road where there were many bars. It was rare forPatrick to come out and hang out with them.
