Thompson Miguel raised his hand and pulled a tie from his pocket, handing it to her. Moore Audrey took the tie seriously, recalling how she had tied a tie for Moore Luis before.
Holding the tie, she raised her hand, paused, and looking at the young man’s height, she said,
“Can you bend down a little?”
Thompson Miguel complied, but as he bent down, they ended up a bit closer together.
At first, Moore Audrey was very focused on tying his tie, but she didn’t know how her attention drifted to the young man’s face, then to the slightly open collar of his shirt.
His beautiful collarbone was fair and attractive!
She felt a bit tempted…
Plus, with Thompson Miguel’s warm breath brushing against her, she found herself getting more and more flustered, her hands becoming clumsy, and her ears gradually heating up.
In the end, unable to hold back, she tilted her head away, avoiding his gaze,
“Um… how about we change positions?”
Thompson Miguel glanced at her, noticing her slightly flushed ears. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a hint of meaning flashed in his eyes.
But his expression remained calm and indifferent as he softly replied, then straightened up.
Moore Audrey quickly looked up, taking the opportunity while he was standing to fan herself with her hand, not knowing why, but tonight’s Thompson Miguel was simply… irresistible.
When Thompson Miguel spoke again, Moore Audrey pretended to be calm as she looked at his tie.
As she observed, her legs started to feel a bit sore, so she shifted her stance, and her calf brushed against the step, causing her eyes to light up.
Raising her eyebrows, she happily stepped up a step, managing to be almost at the same height as Thompson Miguel.
The young girl cheerfully exclaimed, “You untied it, let me tie it again!”
Thompson Miguel looked down at the tie, then at her,
“Go ahead?”
Moore Audrey was momentarily stunned but still blushing as she untied the tie for him. Since it had gotten a bit messy earlier, it was inevitably tied a bit tight, and her fingers occasionally brushed against the young man’s warm neck.
Each time, she would pause for a few seconds, then carefully tiptoe to untie it.
And every time she applied a little force, she would lose control and end up pulling at the young man’s collar.
Thompson Miguel felt her tugging a few times and looked down to see her on her tiptoes. He kindly bent down a bit.
Moore Audrey was caught off guard, and as she tiptoed again, she accidentally bumped her forehead against the young man’s.
Moore Audrey quickly withdrew her hand, her heels returning to the ground as she lowered her head and weakly apologized,
“Um… I’m sorry…”
Thompson Miguel looked down at her, raising his right hand’s index finger that was resting on the railing.
“It’s fine… just continue tying?”
Moore Audrey looked up at him, recalling his performance, and became serious, nodding,
“Bend down a bit…”
Thompson Miguel obediently bent down.
This time, Moore Audrey managed to suppress her inner restlessness and earnestly tied his tie.
Once the tie was tied, Moore Audrey, used to tying it for Moore Luis, instinctively raised her hand to pat Thompson Miguel’s chest, saying,
“Alright, now you look even more handsome!”
As soon as she said that, she suddenly realized and felt a wave of regret, thinking, oh no… I got too comfortable like I did with Moore Luis.
But Thompson Miguel said nothing. Moore Audrey, trying to find a way out for herself, smiled at him,
“Ah… now it’s good, you can go back to get your things… I’ll head to the auditorium first.”
Then she walked downstairs, and after stepping down a level, the young girl raised her hand to fan herself, trying to dispel the growing heat in her body.
Hmph… it’s all Thompson Miguel’s fault for looking too handsome tonight!
But every time she thought of the first moment she saw Thompson Miguel, she couldn’t help but smile, her heart sighing,
“Thompson Miguel… really is good-looking…”
With that, she walked towards the auditorium with a smile on her face, unhurried.
Meanwhile, Thompson Miguel, walking up the stairs, looked down at the tie that the young girl had tied for him. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, radiating a pleasant aura.
He rarely agreed with his mother’s opinions in his heart.
The main reason was that around three or four in the afternoon, when everyone else was getting their makeup done, Thompson Miguel had gone home and simply changed back into the formal outfit he wore in the morning.
However, when he went downstairs, Miguel Mama saw him and, as usual, asked why he was dressed like that. Thompson Miguel honestly told her.
Then, after circling around him and shaking her head, Mrs. Thompson found him another outfit, insisting he change into it.
