Chapter 139 Madison's Sympathy
A mischievous and victorious smile was written over Anna's face as she looked at Roland and Madison.
'Trying to impress another girl in front of me? Heh, good luck!' She thought as she waited for the matter to escalate even further.
Roland only looked at her for a moment before he recited Madison's unique id number.
"10345469…"
The moment Roland started the recitation, Madison immediately looked at her phone and a surprise expression surfaced on her face as Roland reached the end of the string of numbers.
"You actually memorized it. That's very impressive," Madison exclaimed.
Inside, she also nodded her head in approval, 'As expected of my rival.'
On the other hand, seeing Madison's impressed expression, Anna could not help but grit her teeth in anger.
She did not think that Roland was truly able to memorize those strings of unique numbers with just a quick glance.
Now, Madison was looking at her as if she was a dolt. It was obvious that Madison's impression towards her had already turned rock-bottom.
Meanwhile, Roland looked at the System interface in front of him with a hidden smile.
Ding!
[You have successfully face-slapped a person: +10 FS Points]
[You have successfully face-slapped a person with 5 witnesses: 25 FS Points]
Although it was not much, at least it was honest work.
Roland took a quick glance around only to realize that everyone was busy with their own matters, or gossip.
If only all of them witnessed the scene, he would have an additional of over a hundred face-slapping points from the witnesses alone.
Roland finally ignored the screen as it faded from his view.
It was a good feeling to face-slapping a person. Especially if you hated the same person whom you just face-slapped. Roland did not even look at Anna as he recited the numbers. However, he actually imagined what kind of face she was making right now for getting embarrassed by her own behavior.
When Roland thought that she had already learned her lesson, who would have thought that she would end up opening her mouth again?
This time, her voice was even a little loud, attracting the gazes and the attention of everyone.
"So what if he memorized it? It still does not change the fact that he's embarrassed to get his phone out because of how old it is," as she said so, she waved her Ay-phone 14 in the air.
"In fact, can that still even be considered a phone? It's better to call it an antique instead. Look at this, only a phone like the Ay-phone can be considered a phone in today's age." Anna scoffed as she waved her Ay-phone in the air again.
Everyone around laughed at her remarks. A proud smile appeared on Byran as he saw his girl flaunting the Ay-phone 14 that he bought for her.
"Oh right I forgot. Do you even know what an Ay-phone is? Do you even know that they have models?" Hearing the crowd's laughter, Anna's ego was boasted as she continued.
She knew that Roland has never been a techy person. He did not even have a Dissbook account before, and the phone he previously bought was a cheap phone that almost cost him all of his savings.
Anna felt great after letting all of her frustrations out.
Who told him to ignore her since earlier? Who told him to flirt with Madison in front of her? Now, he was getting what he deserved.
The crowd laughed as they heard Anna's insult. They already heard from the rumors that Roland and Anna actually had a relationship before. They knew that this was Anna's attempt at taking revenge from what had transpired behind the scenes.
Almost all of them don't like to interact with Roland either. Due to him always going home early after school, he had never socialized with his classmates. And besides, with his cheap clothes that looked like a beggar in their 'wealthy' eyes, no one would want to mingle with him either.
"Quiet!" Madison suddenly erupted with a voice full of authority.
She was the class president for a reason. The moment her authoritative voice was heard, everyone immediately toned down.
On the other hand, Madison looked at her classmates in disgust.
Like Roland, she was also poor. The phone she was using was also an old model. Anna insulting Roland with his old phone was the same as Madison too.
Madison sympathizes with Roland due to their extremely similar circumstances.
She knew how materialistic this school was, however, because she liked to socialize with others, and that she was the crowd favorite, the amount of ostracization she felt was a lot less than Roland.
She looked at Roland and felt bad and at the same time amazed for some reason.
Even until now, Roland still managed to endure the insults he was receiving and still managed to keep a composed expression.
'Just how many insults had he endured until now for him to not have any sort of reaction from their insults?' She thought with a downhearted expression.
If it was her, she would have surely erupted by now. However, Roland still wore the same nonchalant expression as if none of their voices reached his ears.
"Roland, it doesn't matter if your phone is old, or if it's a cheap model. As long as it serves its purpose, isn't that the most important thing?" She said with a low voice, trying to console Roland.
She leaned forward towards him and whispered, "If you're really embarrassed, then just add me when you arrive home, alright? No need to follow their demands."
Anna clicked her tongue seeing Madison's actions. A sour feeling rose inside her heart seeing them act like that in front of everyone.
Roland was a handsome man, he just dressed very 'cheaply'. However, she could not deny that she had indeed been infatuated by Roland's looks before.
And now, seeing him 'flirting' with another person, she could not help but feel as if she had been cheated.
"What are you doing? Stop wasting everyone's time. Come on, prove it in front of us already that you will truly add her," she said with an annoyed voice.
