Chapter 1

After a glass of wine, Frances Haddix picked up her chopsticks and looked at the table full of dishes. It was quite an appetite, ah, the little girl is now learning from her father to do, and the food is also greasy.

Hey, my aunt's cooking is delicious, and my sister's cooking is also very delicious, and I will have more food in the future. Frances Haddix ate it and did not forget to kiss it.

Gobble, then I'll make you a pig. Molly Norman chewing slowly, making fun of Frances Haddix.

Well, then I'm the happiest little pig in the world. Well, it's worth it, admits Frances Haddix.

No, Daddy can't be a little pig. Then I'll be a little pig. Irene doesn't want it. The little guy objected again.

According to Irene, the whole family is a pig.

Angel Simpson and Molly Norman laugh indiscriminately.

Oh, Irene's right, we're not pigs. Frances Haddix told the little guy.

After the laugh, Molly Norman poured the wine and raised the glass, Irene and I can move here, in fact, is to make trouble for Xuan sister, I know Xuan sister is for our mother's good, very grateful... Molly Norman was not ready to finish her sentence when Angel Simpson interrupted.

Needless to say, why can we get together? To say a little bit of empty words, is fate, to say a little bit of real words, is that you and I, and Xiao Wei are very well together, the three of us have had bumpy experiences, although different, but have experienced a difficult period of time, especially us, have had a similar journey, which is the reason why we can get close so quickly, although it is said that after a long time to see people, We haven't been together that long, but your character, I believe, is what you appear to be. Williams also keeps telling me, I'm a great person." Is that a bonus for Frances Haddix? Angel Simpson was always in a good position to impress Molly Norman.

Then there is Irene, since knowing the little guy, she always touches the heart of small Williams, he is often talking, a few days do not see strange thoughts. And then there's me. I can't have children anymore. I love Irene from the bottom of my heart and treat her as my own child. You see, when you put it all together, Serena and I really want us to get closer, okay? How can it be closer? It's best to live together." Angel Simpson analyzes the reasons why he wants to live with Molly Norman and Irene, in the final analysis, is that she and Frances Haddix are 100% willing to let Molly Norman not think so much.

Xuan sister has said so, I say anything else, I will see outsiders, and I will not take myself as outsiders, and we will be a family in the future. Molly Norman has some red eyes, this is the warmth of home, since the family did not recognize her, and then divorce, has not been this feeling, this again found, how can not let her some excitement.

That's right, everyone's happy. Angel Simpson said immediately.

Yes, here's to a happy life for our family. Frances Haddix likes this warm family atmosphere very much. Everyone in the family lives happily, infuses each other, and integrates happily. How happy it is.

Giggles, Irene is so happy. The little guy holds up a small glass of juice and clink glasses one by one.

The four people are very happy to eat, and this is a family, but in Angel Simpson's heart, only one step has been completed, and if one step has been completed, then it is completely become a family of four.

Suddenly came the midterm exam, Frances Haddix no doubt the first in the academic year, 730 points, not that he wanted to show off, mainly to prove to the two housewives at home, confirm that he does not need to deliberately study, the results can be maintained at a super high level, so that they completely rest assured, don't worry about it. Because of other things delay study.

The four become more and more intimate, just like a family. Angel Simpson is looking for various reasons to bring Irene and create opportunities for Molly Norman and Frances Haddix to be alone. In fact, both of them understand Angel Simpson's intention. Just don't dare to test each other's meaning, I'm afraid the feelings will change.

Molly Norman, in particular, had more concerns. Frances Haddix also has to consider Angel Simpson's feelings. Although Angel Simpson is trying to help, can he not have a little knot in his heart? So he's still watching.

The relationship between the two people, but also with a long time of contact, feelings gradually warming up, but more shows the love of sister and brother, they all enjoy the warmth of this kind of affection.

Angel Simpson is no way, he can do all done, the key is to look at the other two people, she can not force them to press together.

When the midterm results came down, Thomas Peace sighed for Frances Haddix's achievement again. If it was a fluke, what about this time? It's unlikely that both were by chance.

Between classes, Thomas Peace goes to Frances Haddix's desk.

Okay, buddy, you didn't see it, you have a secret, if you don't say it, it will be amazing. Thomas Peace patted Frances Haddix on the shoulder.

What is amazing, fuss, the strength of the brothers is there, it is not hidden, it is low-key, you such a shallow person, can not understand. Frances Haddix and Thomas Peace have nothing to be modest about. They can talk and they can talk.

My God, you noble, why not low-key, began to play high profile? Is there some hidden agenda?" Thomas Peace starts laughing at the end.

This time your IQ is some improvement, but the improvement is not so much, only guess half, there is a purpose, but not can't tell you, the beauty facing the brothers are too good, the pressure is too great, don't come up with some strength, people don't run, there is a long way to go. Frances Haddix also made it look like she was carrying a lot of weight on her back.

Thomas Peace looks at him like this, he can be as weak as he needs to be, and the beauty has already got it, and he still makes this expression, which is obviously to get cheap and sell good behavior. Couldn't help but look at Juan Haley, Big Beauty Lin is talking with Michael Goodman hot, a pair of happy appearance, the mood is very good ah. I feel that what Frances Haddix said seems to have some truth, now Miss Lin is the second in the class, no longer the first, but her mood has become more pleasant, which means what, it is self-evident.

What a pair of adulterers. Thomas Peace gives them a definition, and actually he wants to exclaim that a match is made in heaven, but Du Da bitch's mouth is not so elegant, it is the opposite.

Fuck, don't come out here with me, give my buddies an experience, how can you learn better? I want to make progress, get into a better college, and keep up with Michael Goodman, don't you think?" At the end of the sentence, Michael Goodman was spoken in a low voice, lest anyone should hear.

The head hangs on the beam, the cone is piercing, is very simple. Frances Haddix says casually.

He really can't do this, does he want him to give the space crystal to Thomas Peace, so that he can develop more brain cells, obviously unrealistic? Even if Frances Haddix wanted to share it, he'd have to find a way not to, because the space crystal is completely a part of himself, and he'll never get it out again, so what happens when he dies? This problem is very serious, it needs to be proved by practice, and only if you have a bad brain will you practice it.

Damn it, that's easy, why don't you let me die, you don't do that at home every night? "Said Thomas Peace, still looking over Frances Haddix's head, seeing nothing, and turning it over with his hands.

Fuck, what are you doing, messing up my head, trying to ruin my good image. Frances Haddix is gonna rip Thomas Peace's fucking hand off right now.

Didn't find anything. This guy really wants to see if his head is hanging, you know? In fact, it is fighting, who still believes that, what age, perseverance does not have to do it.

Shall I take off my clothes and show you where the awl has pierced? Frances Haddix sits undressing.

It is very necessary, and it is better to take off your shorts with you, and I will see if there are any traces of rope entanglement under you. Thomas Peace looks earnestly at Frances Haddix's crotch.

Fuck, dude, no S? M's fetish. Frances Haddix gives Thomas Peace a push, the bottom of the buddy has not been wrapped in rope, and has only been developed by Angel Simpson, of course, not in any special way, it is normal.

I don't know. Generally speaking, people with great power have some hobbies. Maybe that's your hobby. Thomas Peace is burying him.

Quirks aren't just for people who have them, said Frances Haddix, rolling her eyes. Don't put your quirks on other people. I'll have to ask Michael Goodman if he can handle it. Frances Haddix is talking about Michael Goodman again.

Damn it, go ahead. Thomas Peace looked unconcerned.

Or you enjoy yourself, I eat too much to support, more that thing why. Did Frances Haddix and Michael Goodman really have to discuss S? M problem? That's a powerful idea.

Dude, seriously, how can I take shortcuts and improve my grades quickly? My dad told me that if I can get into a key undergraduate, I will be rewarded with a car, which is very tempting. Oh, that's what he's thinking. He wants to learn from Frances Haddix.

The temptation to use a car as an incentive to study is really big, not common, rich people.

Not the brothers do not help you, there is really no good shortcut to learn this thing, everyone has a different learning method for everyone, are their own exploration, not necessarily suitable for others, at present can only be carefully reviewed. Unless you get the questions before the test, that's the quickest way."

Frances Haddix can't really come up with a good way to do it. She's just trying to learn on her own. To say that his original grades are not bad, by hard learning, coupled with the further development of brain cells, the achievement of the current results, if not the original lay a good foundation, now he could not be so easy, only listen to the class carefully, after class a little look, you can master all. A man is a genius, if he does not learn anything, he looks like a waste; On the contrary, an ordinary person constantly strives to learn all kinds of knowledge and is used in society, then he may become a talent, there is a saying that is still very reasonable, diligence can make up for stupidity ah.

Thomas Peace is a sad look on his face, Cake seller, my car, there is no hope.

My God, can you be a bit of a promise, this is still more than half a year before the college entrance examination, you can't do something about it? Frances Haddix is a bit of an iron man.

My grades are not unknown to you, key undergraduate is really too difficult. Thomas Peace study is really general, not on, not high, not low, to test an ordinary undergraduate, hard or can, but to test the heavy book, that is a little bit worse.

It's not hopeless, your family Michael Goodman, but you're not motivated by the possibility of getting into a major college? Frances Haddix knew that Michael Goodman's grades were still good, that he should have no problem getting into a major undergraduate school, and using this to encourage Thomas Peace must have had an effect.

Thomas Peace grits his teeth, Dude really come to the head, cone piercing, you don't have to persuade me.

Damn it, it's like you're going to the execution ground, and if you don't succeed, you're going to die. Frances Haddix could look at Thomas Peace and smile.

Dude, this is the voting heart, not like you stupid, even the little brother abuse. Thomas Peace is convinced that Frances Haddix abused her lower body.

Holy shit, would you stop carrying your bottom half around your mouth. He also persuaded the education of Thomas Peace, do not want to think about themselves, is also ah, he does not bring in the mouth, always use action, like to expose, let people see, of course, let who see, this can be learned, score time, place, character ah.

Men, when they think with their lower body, there are still many, so it is normal. Thomas Peace is shameless enough to make a statement, including all the men.

Don't give men a bad name, dirty is your patent, not all men like you. Frances Haddix thinks she's pretty noble.

Damn, you're trying to be serious. Thomas Peace punched Frances Haddix.

Frances Haddix shrugged it off. "I'm not pretending. I'm polite. He's going to go through with it.

I think it's Sven and the beast. Thomas Peace wasted no time in hitting Frances Haddix.

Oh, well, class, brother remember his determination to table ah, work hard, what can not understand the place, just find me, brothers must make you satisfied. Frances Haddix patted Thomas Peace on the shoulder.

Thomas Peace nodded and went back to his seat, looking like he was going to have a real fight.

Frances Haddix still does not forget to remind Thomas Peace, after all, sharpening the knife is not wrong to cut wood, at least the effort, the future will not leave regret.

After lunch, she went back to class early. Juan Haley and her family had not yet come back. Frances Haddix was sitting in her seat just about to read a book when the phone rang.

Frances Haddix pulls out her cell phone, sees an unfamiliar number, connects.

Hello, is this Brother Fang? I'm Jiao Lili. There was an anxious girl on the phone.

Frances Haddix sounds like Lili Jiao. I don't know her. I didn't know her.

Zhao Hailiang was beaten, you come quickly, they are still fighting, if you continue to fight, someone will die. You're making a crying sound.

When Frances Haddix heard Zhao Hailiang, she remembered that she was not the child of Michael Goodman's father's comrade-in-arms, and Jiao Lili was his little girlfriend. Thinking about this, she immediately asked, Where?

At the Xinghai Internet Cafe not far from school. Jiao Lili immediately replied.

Frances Haddix hung up the phone and ran out, still whispering in her heart, this boy is not a fuel-saving light ah, there is always something, looking quite a handsome child, so gentle, how always fight with others.

The Xinghai Internet Cafe, Frances Haddix knew, had come to play with Thomas Peace before, and it was not far from the school.

Far away to see several people constantly kicking the ricketed people on the ground, according to Jiao Lili, lying on the ground should be Zhao Hailiang, posture and the last time they were beaten almost ah, Frances Haddix looked almost did not laugh, is really used to being beaten ah, have experience, the back and butt exposed to let people kick.

A little girl nearby kept crying, Don't fight, don't fight. It was Jiao Lili who had met one side last time, but her Shouting was obviously useless.

Frances Haddix rushed up, grabbed the back of the neck of the two men who were beating Zhao, threw them out, and kicked a nearby guy whose back was turned to her in the buttocks. The remaining three saw Frances Haddix alone, and began to beat their own accomplice, and did not care about Zhao Hailiang on the ground, fists, feet are Frances Haddix's body.

Frances Haddix was not going to let them hit him, he was going to dodge them lightly, the two people who hit him with their fists, Frances Haddix was going to give them a kick, and they both flew out, leaving the one who was going to kick him with his foot.

Why leave him alone? Because there's something special about this person, not that this person is anything special, but the part that he just kicked, which is kind of critical, is Frances Haddix's crotch, and that's pretty damning. Two people have no deep hatred, nor is it the kind of enemy that is not your death is my life, the first time to meet, just a fight, according to other people's life on the root of the hello, this is not to scrap the housing officials. Really let him intolerable, the brothers' sex life depends on it, they should be careful to care for, the key is Angel Simpson baby's life, is you can touch it.

Well, the front is very normal, the back of the words are too shameless, how to sound a little light Angel Simpson, but his intention is not so.

While kicking the two men, the kid kicks again, but this foot is not kicking Frances Haddix in the crotch, but the stomach, Frances Haddix grabbed his calf, and there is no follow-up action, just to see what the man who is about to kick his throat looks like, is it seven noses? Eight eyes.

The body is slightly fat, the skin is a little white, the head is only to Frances Haddix's eyebrows, the appearance of ordinary, 16 or 7 years old, the eyes are vicious and staring at Frances Haddix, the Yin and malicious appearance of the face, let Frances Haddix think that this person is a little wrong, is evil, not like a good person. If it's a good guy, kick him in the balls when you can. Easy to judge.

Frances Haddix kept holding on to his calf, and he was on one leg, unable to put it back, unable to hold on to one foot, unable to reach with his fist.

Fuck you, let go of me. All I can do is talk.

Frances Haddix hates people insulting their mother most, both parents are no longer there, in his heart, they belong to the divine existence, is not allowed to be blasphemed, did not expect this boy opened his mouth to scold his mother, originally wanted a simple lesson, but now Frances Haddix angry, It's time to impress this guy.

"Ka-ching!

'Ah!

The sound of broken bones and the squealing of a pig were heard almost simultaneously.

Frances Haddix clapped her hand on the leg she was dragging, and it was broken. The little bitch could not stand on one leg and sat down on the ground. Frances Haddix let go, and the broken leg fell to the ground, and there was another scream, and he covered the broken leg with his hands, and cried constantly in pain.

Ah... I will surely destroy your whole house. At this time, he did not forget to swear, but also to destroy the whole family, so arrogant ah.

Frances Haddix was delighted, crouched down, looked at the little bitch sitting on the floor in pain and tears, and suddenly struck again at his good leg.

"Ka-ching!

'Ah!

This time only scream half a sound, no sound, pain fainted.

His several accomplices had gotten up early, and Frances Haddix hit them not hard, just to keep them away from Zhao Hailiang. Looking at the companion was broken, the heart is daring son suddenly, this must be how much hand strength ah, if you give yourself to come down, it must also be broken did not run, have the heart to look at the situation, but also afraid, so just stood a little distance to watch.

They shuddered at the sight of Frances Haddix. They were students, not outlaws. The soft ones might be good at bullying, but the hard ones were dumbfounded.

Frances Haddix only looked at them and did not pay any attention to them. Zhao Hailiang was already up at this time, and Jiao Lili was supporting him with a little effort. His face was still pretty good, and he was not hit next to each other, it should be said that he was well protected, but his legs seemed to be a little trembling. There are a few bruises on the skin, should be kicked a few feet, the pain is a little unable to stand.

How is it? Do I need to go to the hospital? Frances Haddix asks.

No, it's nothing, it's just flesh wounds. Zhao Hailiang is still the same as the last time, Brother Fang, I have trouble for you again. He said sheepishly

What trouble is not trouble, don't see me, you really nothing? Frances Haddix said and looked at Zhao Hailiang's crotch.

Zhao Hailiang understood, Just now was kicked a foot, fortunately I protect timely, otherwise it would be miserable. He is also a little afraid, make trouble to have no children and grandchildren.

Frances Haddix guessed right, it seems that the dirty man is really not a good thing, I wonder if he has been in a fight with others before, he has not been kicked in the bottom.

What was the fight about? You can't just start a fight.

Lili and I were surfing the Internet and they came over and saw Lili and he asked her to go out to dinner with him. Of course I didn't agree, Mr. Zhao said, pointing to the unconscious man on the ground. So there was a conflict.

This is another farce, beautiful women are really popular ah, no wonder the word beauty has a long history.

Oh, yeah, he's talking about beauty again. That's not it.

Do they know you? Frances Haddix asked.

Both men shook their heads.

Ok, it's OK, you go first, and don't come here to surf the Internet. Frances Haddix let them go. She had to run some errands.

This... Zhao Hailiang hesitated, leaving himself like this, a little unfair, ah, the one on the ground is obviously broken, not very good, let Frances Haddix to bear, how can it be done.

Let you go, don't be motherly, if there is anything in the future, call me in advance, don't see you, you are beaten so badly, let my face no light. Frances Haddix said easily, what light he has on his face is not only, it is not a celebrity, it is to let them leave, to solve the follow-up things, he does not want to let go of the evil man, too toxic, to let him have a profound lesson, otherwise he has not known the sky.

Chapter 2

Jared Chavis was touched, and he knew that Frances Haddix had been nice to him because of Michael Goodman, but he was grateful.

Okay, brother, if there's anything else, call me. And he's not inky, which
