"Let me formally meet you. My name is Corda Hardwick." Corda pursed her lips and smiled. Seeing Canyn's shy and innocent look, she couldn't help but smile again.
In this day and age, a man like Canyn who was always shy around girls should be considered a rare treasure.
"My name is Canyn Gilbert." Canyn was stunned. When Corda smiled, she was really stunningly beautiful.
"There is a coffee shop in front, let's go over there and chat." It was too hot. Basking in the sun here felt like being in a sauna.
"I'll help you."Canyn stretched out his hand.
With support, there was inevitable physical contact with Corda again. The fragrance and silky softness made Canyn's blood rush again.
Canyn quickly and silently activated his spiritual power, which restored clarity to the spiritual platform.
Entering the coffee shop was like entering another world. The air conditioning here was fully turned on, and the cool breeze blew in, which refreshed people.
"Whatever you want to drink, order whatever you want, I'll treat you," Corda said generously, but her brows were still slightly wrinkled unconsciously, and her feet were still hurting.
"Whatever."Canyn smiled shyly.
"Waiter," Corda called the waiter and ordered two cups of mocha coffee.
"You know how to pinch feet?"Corda stared at Canyn for a while and asked.
"It's not pinching the feet, I know some medical skills. I really didn't mean to do it before." Canyn explained, and the strip of cloth and a touch of black among the white legs appeared in his mind, and he suddenly felt a little hot again.
"Please help me take a look, it hurts." Corda frowned and stretched out a beautiful leg as she spoke.
Canyn's breathing was a little rapid. Such beautiful legs were displayed in front of him at close range. Their slenderness and whiteness were a fatal temptation for any man.
Moreover, Canyn subconsciously looked at the roots of his legs. Unfortunately, they were already on guard there. From his perspective, it was impossible to see the beautiful scenery that made his blood rush.
That was too regretful.
However, when Canyn saw that Corda's ankle was swollen, all distracting thoughts disappeared without a trace.
"It hurts." As soon as Canyn reached out and touched it, Corda immediately grinned.
"Your legs are so beautiful."Canyn suddenly raised his head and looked at Corda seriously.
Corda was stunned for a moment, a little confused.
"Ah" but the next second, Corda let out a scream, and there was severe pain in her ankle.
The coffee shop was quiet, but Corda screamed like this, which immediately attracted countless gazes.
When they saw Corda resting one leg on Canyn and Canyn holding Corda's feet, everyone had a playful smile in their eyes. Today's young people were playing more and more tricks.
"You" Corda burst into tears of pain.
"You stand up and try it." Canyn's face was filled with confidence.
Corda was stunned for a moment. Canyn's confidence now made her feel a little disconnected from that shy, and simple boy.
With suspicion, Corda carefully retracted her leg. Seeing that the swelling in the ankle had quietly disappeared and the pain had dissipated, she felt hopeful and slowly stood up.
No pain.
Corda quickly and carefully moved it, but it still didn't hurt.
Then, she exerted a little force, but it still didn’t hurt.
"How did you do that?"Corda's eyes burst out with dazzling light, and her eyes were so sharp that she seemed to be able to see through Canyn.
"I know some medical skills," Canyn said with a slight smile.
"Why is the medical skill so miraculous? I know my injury well, how could it be cured so quickly?"Corda looked at Canyn up and down. He was wearing ordinary clothes and not a particularly handsome face, but now he exuded amazing charm.
"That's because other people's medical skills are not good enough," Canyn said calmly.
Comparing the medical skills of the Immortal Doctors sect with ordinary people was an insult to the Immortal Doctors sect. However, seeing that Corda was a beauty, Canyn did not intend to argue with her.
Corda smiled, sat down again, smiled, and quietly changed the subject, "Are you a student of Tokai University?"
"Not yet, I received the admission notice." Canyn took a sip of coffee and frowned slightly. This taste was really far different from tea.
"You are a prospective junior at Tokai University." Corda blinked and said, "I'm your senior."
"You are also from Tokai University." Canyn's eyes suddenly lit up, wondering if Corda could introduce the part-time job to him. After all, she should be familiar with Tokai University.
"You are disrespectful, you should call me senior." Corda said, "I am a graduate student at Tokai University."
"Senior Corda," Canyn shouted with a shy smile.
"No Senior Corda, please call me Corda. By the way, it's still a long time before school starts. Why did you come early?" Corda asked curiously.
"I came to work to earn tuition," Canyn said.
Corda was stunned and asked softly, "Your family is short of money."
"I'm an orphan," Canyn said calmly while playing with the coffee cup.
"I'm sorry." Corda apologized quickly.
"It's nothing, Corda, I'm not that fragile." Canyn smiled.
"So have you found a job now?"Corda asked with concern.
"I'm working at a construction site for the time being. I'll take care of the food there and have a place to live." Canyn looked at the time and stood up quickly and said, "It's getting late. I have to work in the afternoon. I have to rush back right away."
"Wait a minute." Corda quickly stopped Canyn.
"What are you doing at the construction site?" Corda asked.
"I can do anything, as long as it's chores, I'm very strong." Canyn sighed in his heart. In fact, let alone not wanting to use medical skills to make money, even if he wanted to, there would be no chance here. Who would believe such a young guy?
"How was your college entrance examination score?"Corda asked after taking a deep breath.
Canyn scratched his head and said, "Just over 700 points."
"Awesome."Corda's eyes lit up and asked again, "What about mathematics?"
"Full marks" A shy smile flashed across Canyn's face.
"Great, I will introduce you to a high-paying job. Your tuition will be paid for in one month." Corda said grandly.
After encountering a car accident, not only being rescued but also meeting someone who could solve his urgent needs, Corda even suspected that he was possessed by the goddess of luck.
"What kind of job is it really?"Canyn was overjoyed.
"Sit down and talk." Corda smiled and said, "I am tutoring a high school student. Her family is in very good condition, so the salary is very high, one hundred yuan an hour. In principle, there is no time limit every day, if you have the ability. I can get more than a thousand a day.”
Canyn’s breathing was a little short. This was a good job that he dreamed of.
"I have an emergency at home and I have to go back. You just take my place." A trace of sadness flashed across Corda's face.
"Corda, what do you mean by being capable?" Canyn asked.
"This student has a bad temper. She is in a single-parent family and is a bit difficult to get along with. I can guarantee that you can be her tutor. sister Clemens will definitely give me this face. But how many hours you can teach a day? It's hard to say." Corda suddenly smiled bitterly when She thought of that student.
"Don't worry, Corda, I'll be fine," Canyn smiled, full of confidence.
"Okay, I'll make a call," Corda said vigorously.
Corda just talked on the phone and suddenly started to smile.
"It's done." Corda said with a smile, "Let's go, I will take you to meet sister Clemens."
"Now?" Canyn was confused and said, "I will start work soon this afternoon."
"You?"Corda tapped Canyn's forehead and said, "With such a job, do you still have to work on the construction site? It's such a brainless thing."
Canyn's face turned slightly red, and this intimate gesture made Canyn's heart fluttered.
Canyn smiled bitterly and said, "No, the point is, if I don't go to the construction site, where will I live in the future? I don't even have a hundred yuan in my pocket now."
Corda was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment, and said with bright eyes, "This is easy to handle. I still have a vacant room over there. I have been looking for a shared room, but I haven't found it yet. You can move in first. The rent will wait until you have money. I’ll hand it over later.”
"Ah."Canyn was a little confused. This was the time to live with Corda.
"Ah, what? It's settled. Let's go. I'll take you to the door first. It's not far from here." Corda settled everything without Canyn’s objection.
Studing community was less than two kilometers away from Tokai University, where Corda rented a house.
This was an older community developed. Unlike other new communities that often had more than a dozen or more floors, there were six- and seven-story unit buildings, which also looked older.
"How about it?" Corda opened the door and took Canyn to take a look, especially at the empty room. Although it was not the master bedroom, the area was not very large, and it did not face the sun, he believed it would definitely be better than the work shed on the construction site.
"That's great, Corda, thank you." Canyn was not dissatisfied at all. There were three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. Although the decoration was not gorgeous, it was simple and warm, making it feel like home.
"Thank you. I should be the one to say thank you. Compared to you saving my life, these are nothing." Corda smiled and handed Canyn a key and said, "You can pack up and move here."
"Okay," Canyn was not being pretentious. In fact, Canyn had been very depressed in the workshed these past few days. It was always inconvenient when he wanted to practice at night.
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet sister Clemens." Corda was very satisfied with Canyn's unpretentiousness.
"Sorry to trouble Corda," Canyn said gratefully.
"No matter what the trouble is, you call me sister. If your sister doesn't take care of you, who will you take care of? "Corda waved her hand and said it matter of course.
Canyn smiled slightly and kept this gratitude in his heart.
But before she even left the house, Corda's cell phone rang. Corda picked it up and her expression suddenly changed.
