CHAPTER 80: CHAPTER 80: 1001 SYMBOLIZES A LIFELONG TRUE LOVE [PART 1]

Dawn Sutherland’s face remained serious for a moment, and he softly replied, "Mm, she calls me Brother Dawn, and she’s quite a delightful girl. Anyway, I don’t have a sister, so it’s nice to have her."

Arlo Seys didn’t say a word and fell silent.

Beside them, Nico Haynes couldn’t help but jump up, "Second Young Master Sutherland, are you really planning to help her pursue Boss Seys?"

Dawn Sutherland replied noncommittally, "Depends on Arlo’s own feelings."

"Depends on Boss Seys’ feelings? What do you mean?" Nico Haynes looked at Arlo Seys with confusion.

Dawn Sutherland also looked at Arlo Seys with a gentle smile.

Arlo Seys lowered his gaze and sipped his coffee, blocking the probing eyes of his two good friends, but his peripheral vision glanced at the paper planes on the coffee table.

Reflecting on his own feelings, Arlo Seys silently repeated the thought, a slight tremor spreading from his heart.

Arlo Seys’ soundless silence and Ariel Morris’ relentless pursuit made this emotional chase even more engrossing, igniting a girl-chasing-boy craze in Scenic Hill.

Whenever someone mentions Arlo Seys, the topic inevitably shifts to Ariel Morris, involving her in the school-wide celebrated story of a girl’s pursuit of a boy.

Due to her persistent efforts to chase Arlo Seys, Ariel Morris’ popularity soared, becoming one of the prominent figures in Scenic Hill’s Three Saints and Two Damsels.

The Three Saints are Scenic Hill’s three young masters Arlo Seys, Dawn Sutherland, and Nico Haynes, while the Two Damsels are Ariel Morris from the first-year seventh class and Valeria Johnson from the second-year third class.

Every day, Ariel Morris would search for the trio of Arlo Seys in the school cafeteria. During school breaks, Ariel Morris would quickly dash out of the classroom and often stage coincidental encounters in front of Arlo Seys. Using this tactic frequently might have made Arlo Seys somewhat irritated, as Ariel Morris felt he was starting to avoid her, leaving her frustrated.

After three days of intensive contemplation, Ariel Morris devised a new strategy to pursue her heartthrob.

If being forceful doesn’t work, she’ll try being gentle, use actions to move the God Seys! Let him see how serious she is about the relationship!!!

Actually, this strategy is not much different from self-sacrifice, the only difference being one evokes sympathy through pain, the other touches heart through feelings. The effect of both is to let the other person feel your dedication and deepen your impression.

Once the plan was set, Ariel Morris began her preparation in earnest.

She bought a bunch of colorful letter paper online; she planned to fold 1001 paper cranes to give to Arlo Seys. As for why 1001, she had thought it through, because 1001 symbolizes a lifelong love.

Once she made up her mind, Ariel Morris spent her break times folding paper cranes at her desk, becoming a gentle lady who wouldn’t step out of the door and kept folding all day.

She folded during breaks, after school, late at night, even dreaming about folding paper cranes.

The school waited to see her relentlessly pursue her heartthrob again, only to find Ariel Morris quiet like a little lady, no longer hanging around Arlo Seys. Everyone wondered if she had given up chasing Scenic Hill’s top heartthrob Arlo Seys because of the lack of response from the pursuit?

The school forum started buzzing about this again, the topic discussion ranking as the most popular in Scenic Hill’s chatroom!

On the other hand, while Ariel Morris was silent, second-grade class three’s flower Valeria Johnson confessed to her same-class top heartthrob Arlo Seys, causing a stir throughout the school.

Valeria Johnson was the most likely candidate for this year’s Scenic Hill Beauty, quite popular among the boys at school. Once this topic emerged, discussions about Ariel Morris were quickly overshadowed by Valeria Johnson’s pursuit of Arlo Seys.

Ariel Morris finally completed the paper cranes a week later.

It happened to be the seven-day-long October first holiday, as she was contemplating how to give these paper cranes to Arlo Seys, a stroke of luck from heaven, or rather, from Dawn Sutherland, granted her a grand opportunity.

"Ariel, today is Arlo’s birthday; there’s a birthday party tonight. Would you like to attend?" Came the gentle voice of Dawn Sutherland over the phone.

Synopsis:

At the award ceremony, a reporter asked violinist Maggie Wren, "Miss Wren, what is your most accomplished feat this lifetime?"

Maggie Wren smiled gracefully, "Sleeping with my older brother!"

Reporter: "...Anything else?"

Maggie Wren thought for a moment and innocently added, "I also signed the divorce papers, broke up with my older brother."

The reporter and crowd: Feeling sorry for the Wren Family’s Crown Prince for three seconds...

Young Master Wren arrived at the scene with a calm demeanor, looking at the elegant, composed woman on stage, he calmly spoke, "Capture me, sleep with me, win me over. Mrs. Wren, I’ll overlook what you just said and allow you to be arrogant for a lifetime..."

Maggie Wren looked at the dangerous glint in the man’s eyes, her legs trembling, her waist aching, "....."

Silently cursing in her heart: Damn, beast!!
