Chapter 33 So Cruel!
“Why don’t I dare?”
Although Shirley didn’t know what kind of tricks Keith wanted to play, she didn’t hesitate and took out her
phone generously.
Perhaps deep down in her heart, she also wanted to compete with Cherry.
After all, she was Braden’s first love that he never forgot. She was also curious why she was so
special.
“Do you have the Top Heroes mobile game on your phone?”
Speaking of this, Keith looked at Cherry with even more admiration. “Cherry is not only a top student, but
she is also a good gamer. Top Heroes is a mobile game that is popular all over the world, and she has a
record of no. 3 in Asia!”
Shirley looked calm, and she smiled. “Is she so amazing? Let’s not talk nonsense and have a
competition.”
“Do you also play games?”
Keith was a little surprised.
It seemed that this dignified little woman was not as boring as he imagined!
However, probably she was just a rookie, and couldn’t compare to his idol Cherry.
Cherry was not performing well just now, and she couldn’t wait to take this opportunity to win back the
respect. She hurriedly said, “Forget about the competition, let’s keep it casual just to entertain
everyone.”
Then the two came to the game interface and started the competition.
The screen was simultaneously projected onto the screen.
Because of the huge gap between the two players, everyone was not very interested. They were all
waiting to see how Shirley was instantly defeated.
After three match points passed, Shirley miraculously passed the test, scoring almost the same as
Cherry!
Seeing that the competition was getting more and more intense, Shirley’s series of operations were
getting much better, and she could be compared to the same level of professional players.
Cherry began to panic with sweat dripping from her forehead, and she tapped the phone qua khy with his
long fingers
It’s the last match point, if she couldn’t win, she would lose and definitely lose her respect.
“Spin!”
“Outflank!”
“Be careful, the crystal will be stolen!”
Everyone held their breath as if they were watching a world–class e–sports league.
In the final move, Shirley scored the highest score with a 100% perfect culling and successfully
beat Cherry.
“Amazing!
“Pro, you are a real pro! Please teach me!”
The crowd erupted in admiration. Everyone was so impressed.
Keith crossed his legs and was about to watch a joke, but fell off the sofa at this moment, “Impossible.
Lucky, you are so lucky!”

no. 3 in Asia. Do you know who is the first?”
“Of course I know!”
As a senior fan of this game, Keith immediately replied, “It’s a professional player whose ID was
Summery, which was a little similar to your name…”
“Wait, are you Summery?”
Shirley smiled faintly, “That’s right, I am.”
Although it was a casual answer, everyone present was shocked.
Braden never played games, and his face was indifferent throughout the whole process. He frowned
slightly when he heard the words “Summery” and looked Shirley in the eyes.
“You are Summery.”
So, she was the original author of popular fiction?
“So what?”
The man’s reaction made Shirley a little unpredictable. He didn’t play games, so why did he ask so many
questions?
Karen got up, and said with emotion, “He’s also a top student, and he’s also a master of online games. It
seems that Braden has found an advanced version of Cherry. Now I can feel relieved.”
“At the end of next month, Cherry and I will get engaged. I was hesitant to tell you at first, but now it
seems that you have already moved on. You have such a beautiful wife. You and your wife must
attend our engagement ceremony!”
He had to give blessings even if he was supposed to be with her This… was so cruel!
Shirley peeked at Braden, and couldn’t help feeling a little sympathetic for him.
Braden looked calm, “Don’t worry, I will definitely attend, and I will give you a big gift then.”
When Cherry heard this, she looked sad and silently tightened her fingers.
On the way back, Shirley was sitting in the passenger seat, peeking at the man repeatedly. She
wanted to speak, but she hesitated.
“Is there something wrong?
Braden asked coldly.
Shirley finally couldn’t hold back anymore, and said with sympathy,
“Hey, as someone who has been there, I can understand your feelings. It’s not good to be betrayed by
the one you love.”
“Don’t be tense, just cry if you want to!”
Braden had already moved on with Cherry a long time ago. The reason why he was absent–minded was
that he had been digesting the fact that Summery was actually Shirley.
Since she was so “understanding“, he was determined to tease her well.
Braden slowly pulled over to the car and stopped, with his long arms supporting the back of the
passenger’s seat, and looked down at the woman condescendingly, “Yeah, I’m very sad. We are a
couple anyway. How are you going to comfort me?”
“How do you want me to comfort you?”
Shirley pressed her back against the seat tightly, looking at him with her pure and clear eyes, and asked
seriously.
She actually didn’t know what she was thinking.
She should be so happy and go to celebrate that this guy ended up like this.
However, seeing his sad look, she couldn’t stand it.
“The best way to forget someone is time and new love, I have time, but for new love…”
Braden stared at the woman affectionately, raised her chin gently with his long fingers, and said in a low
voice, “Everyone says you are the advanced version of Cherry, why don’t you be her substitute
for a few minutes, and give me a comforting kiss, how about it?”
After finishing speaking, the man closed his eyes, and slowly approached Shirley. His deep facial
features were so perfect.
No woman would be able to refuse such a handsome face.
Shirley from the past would also fall for this….
But now, she was sober and angry all of a sudden.
Use me as her substitute?!
Lucky you!
Shirley gathered all her strength and was about to punch him.
Suddenly, she heard an unusual sound.
“Don’t move!”
Braden opened his eyes and looked disappointed. “Reject me?”
“No kidding!”
“There’s something wrong with your car!”
Braden became alert for a moment, and he returned back to normal.
“Didn’t you hear, there was a sound. Beep, beep, beep…”
Braden frowned coldly, held his breath, and listened carefully.
Sure enough, there was a sound of “beep, beep, beep” coming from the bottom of the driver’s seat.
Shirley swallowed her saliva, not even daring to breathe heavily. “If I’m right, there is a timebomb
in your car!”
“What did you say?”
Braden looked cold.
He lost his patience.
When he was about to get up to check, Shirley pushed him back heavily, “Do you want to die, I tell you
not to move!”
Braden, who was used to controlling everything, was controlled by a little girl for the first time.
But unexpectedly not bothered at all.
He coughed lightly and said softly, “Then tell me, what should I do?”
“What can we do? Of course, we need to defuse the bomb!”
Shirley took a deep breath. Based on her past experience, she carefully slid to the driver’s seat from the
position where was Braden’s legs and lay down to check the situation.
It was supposed to be a dangerous and tense moment, but Braden was a little distracted.
Because the woman’s posture at the moment was really too embarrassing and ambiguous.
Her hair was hanging down, exuding a faint fragrance, and her petite body, like a dexterous deer,
touched his leg inadvertently…
Braden felt his mouth dry for no reason, and his Adam’s apple rolled slightly. Then he quickly looked out
of the car window.
Shirley didn’t notice Braden’s strangeness, and was carefully checking the situation the whole
time.

Sure enough, there was a fist–sized timebomb under the driver’s seat, with a timer welded on it. There
were still two minutes left in the countdown.
Fortunately, the structure of this bomb was very simple, with just three lines of red, yellow, and blue. It
was a pediatric level that she could easily dismantle since she was a child.
“How?”
Braden asked in a deep voice.
“There are two minutes left, give me the scissors.”
Shirley lay down calmly, reaching out to the man.
Braden’s car was always equipped with scissors, knives, and other tools. He handed them to the
woman.
He wanted to see if this little girl really had the ability to defuse bombs.
Shirley took the scissors, and carefully checked the wires of the bomb in an extremely difficult
posture.
She must find the safe one to cut in the shortest possible time.
“Beep, beep, beep…”
As time passed by, Braden’s expression was cold and serious, and he felt scared for the first time
It was not that he was afraid of death, but he didn’t want Shirley to get hurt.
Seeing that two minutes had passed, Shirley was still lying on his stomach. Braden clenched his fists
and asked in a deep voice, “Was it removed?”
“Well, it was demolished already.”
Shirley’s voice was calm.
Braden finally breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked, “No, you cut it already, why didn’t you tell
me?”
Shirley pressed her lips, trying to hold back his laugh, and explained, “I’m afraid of accidents!”
Hahaha, in fact, she wanted to play with him.
Because it was the first time for her to see the cool and arrogant Mr. Stewart being so cowardly. She was
in an inconvenient posture, otherwise, she really wanted to take a picture for memory!
How smart Braden was, he immediately caught Shirley’s expression of suppressed laughter, and
immediately understood, “You dare to play me, you are done!”
The man curled his long fingers and flicked on Shirley’s head.
Shirley dodged back, and said with sarcasm, “You are not very popular, there are so many people who
want to kill you…”
“I saved you again. How can you treat your savior like this?”
There was some ambiguous flirting involved in the fighting.
Both realized at the same time that they had crossed the line.
Braden coughed lightly and changed the subject, “I didn’t expect that you knew how to defuse
bombs?”
“Of course, you forgot who my grandpa was. When girls in my age were still playing with dolls, my
grandpa taught me to dismantle guns and recognize all kinds of weapons!”
When Shirley mentioned her Grandpa, she was both proud and nostalgic.
“I see.”
Braden found it unbelievable at first, but when he thought that she was the granddaughter of General
Jason, he felt it was possible.
She was a top student in a prestigious school, a master of games, and even knew how to defuse bombs.
What else did he not know about this woman?
Shirley felt that their posture was too awkward, and tried to get up. Suddenly she felt a cramping pain in
her stomach.
