Chapter 193 - 193 Model

193 Model

The few people who had arrived earlier had already shared their gifts.

Aileen was poor and didn’t have much money to buy gifts, but her handiwork was good, so she bought a paper of several colors and made four Christmas cards of different styles.

Simon gave everyone some homemade dried fruit.

Joyce had given him an imported gift bag of snacks, but she had prepared an extra box of heart-shaped chocolate for Leon. It was hidden in the middle of the gift bag, and no one could tell from its appearance. However, when she handed it to Leon, she had a shy smile on his face.

However, when the straight man, Leon, saw it, he thought everyone had one and didn’t think much about it.

Frank’s gift was simple and crude. He didn’t even need to think. He directly took four spending cards for the annual VIP guests from the dessert chain under his company. With this card, he could spend without a limit of once a month for a year.

At first, Leon also wanted to save some effort and give the same gift to the four of them. However, Vivian wanted Leon to get along with his classmates, so she was very attentive when she went to buy the gifts with Leon in the morning.

Knowing that two female classmates were in the group, Vivian went to the Gold and Jade Jewelry’s event section and picked out two pairs of pearl earrings. They only had some Christmas elements in them, and were very suitable for daily wear.

On the other hand, Leon had personally chosen Simon and Frank’s.

Frank liked the surprise of opening a gift. After taking it, he couldn’t wait to tear off the outer wrapping paper, revealing the gift box inside. He opened it with anticipation, and his smile stiffened.

Frank frowned and looked at Leon with resentment. “Leon, you’re too much!”

His good mood from yesterday’s holiday and gaming was instantly washed away.

The few of them looked over and burst out laughing when they saw it. Leon pursed his lips to suppress the smile on his face.

Simon’s gift was the same as Frank’s, but he had an excited expression on his face. “Leon, thank you so much! I’ve wanted to buy this set of questions for a long time, but it’s a pity that this publishing firm’s question-setting team is very famous and the price is much more expensive than the other reference materials. I haven’t saved enough money to buy it.”

Simon got the high school questions, while Frank got the questions for the first and second years. According to Simon and Leon’s tutoring progress, Frank would be able to start the first years’ courses when school started, which would be useful then.

Joyce was as unhappy when she saw Aileen’s earrings were the same as hers, but she knew how Leon was. She had not become his girlfriend yet, so it was normal for her not to receive any special treatment. After adjusting her attitude, she encouraged herself to continue working hard.

After the holiday, everyone started to get busy with work again, and the filming of the crew was soon coming to an end.

On the last day of filming, Leon was spotted by an investor of another film crew who was passing by and wanted to hire him as a print model.

Leon glanced at the young man. He had a few strands of hair on his forehead and was wearing a coffee-colored woolen coat. He had a pair of peach-shaped eyes and always looked charming when he looked at people. He looked like a sissy no matter how you looked at him.

The sissy blinked. “What’s your name, handsome? How old are you this year?”

“I’m sorry, I’m not interested in being a model,” rejected Leon.

The sissy decided to size up Leon’s 175cm height. He had long limbs and a very delicate face. He was even more reluctant to give up. “Don’t be in a hurry to reject us. Our pay is very impressive. You can get 100 yuan for two hours.”

This was equivalent to an hourly salary of 50 yuan, and as long as they delayed it for half a day, Leon was really tempted. “My name is Leon, I’m 14 years old this year. What company are you from? What’s the point of filming it?”

The sissy was very satisfied when he heard of Leon’s age. Seeing that Leon’s attitude had changed, he smiled and replied, “We’re a magazine company. We’re going to shoot the theme of ‘young man in spring’. We’re looking for middle school students. Your image fits our requirements very well.”

Leon took the business card from the other party and agreed after knowing that it would start at 9 am the next day.

The sissy happily turned around and got into a red car not far away to report his work.

Leon didn’t want everyone to delay their time to go home because of him, so he let them go back as planned.

Joyce’s first thought was to encourage everyone to return to S City so she could have dinner with Leon alone. Hence, she rejected without hesitation, “I’m going back because my mother keeps forcing me to wake up early to make up for lessons, so I won’t be going back first. I’ll be sleeping in tomorrow morning. You guys can go back first. The driver is already here. You can return to the dormitory to pack your luggage and go home.”
