Near the fence, I planted chrysanthemums, but they don’t bloom in autumn.
When Viola heard these two lines of poetry, she thought the short-haired girl should be called Near Autumn or Fence Unfinished, but she was actually called Daisy.
Daisy Owen reached out her hand to Viola and said, “Miss Thompson, you can just call me Daisy.”
Olga had heard that North Bridge High School had an incredibly beautiful school beauty. Even though she expected that Viola would be very beautiful, she realized that the word “beautiful” simply was not enough to describe her after seeing Viola in person.
She was like a fairy from heaven.
Viola chuckled slightly, gently holding Daisy’s hand. “You can call me Viola or, like them, call me Vio.’
“Vio.” Daisy was quite familiar.
Viola liked to be around people like this. After a short while, the girls got along very well.
Diana continued, “l have already bought the movie tickets. The show starts in 10 minutes. Let’s go in first.”
The movie they were watching today was a newly released horror movie.
The terror rating was 10 stars.
Even big men in the cinema cried.
Diana, Daisy, and Fiona Knight were also frightened, screaming continuously.
Viola was full of “boyfriend power,” sitting in the pose of a boss, embraced by her friends: “Don’t be afraid, these are all fake.’
Her voice was very pleasant, like a natural breeze in April, with a calming charm that refreshed the heart and mind.
The people sitting in front and behind all wanted to see the face of the person who owned the voice.
After the movie, they went to the arcade.
For the first time, Viola realized that the arcade was so much fun.
In her previous life, she had missed so many things.
“There’s a claw machine over there!” Fiona pointed to a row of claw machines.
“Let’s catch those stuffed animals.’
Girls were generally more interested in plush toys.
“Alright!” Diana and Daisy nodded, and they all went to the claw machine together.
The claw in the machine had been adjusted by the vendor, so it couldn’t cut the transparent fishing lines capturing the stuffed animals. The girls spent several hundred yuan but didn’t catch a single toy.
Fiona was a bit disappointed. “Forget it. Let’s not play anymore.”
Viola rubbed her chin, narrowing her peach blossom eyes. “Wait a minute.” “Vio, what’s wrong?” Fiona asked.
Viola’s lips curved into a shallow smile, her dimples barely visible. “l think I’ve figured out the pattern.”
As she spoke, she took out a game coin and put it in.
Three, two, one!
She pressed the button.
The next second, the claw directly cut the transparent fishing line.
Pop.
The stuffed animal hanging on the line fell down immediately.
This scene amazed the other three people.
No one expected Viola could actually cut the line.
“It’s broken! It’s really broken!” Fiona enthusiastically took out the stuffed animal.
Diana, curious, asked, “Vio, how did you do it?”
Viola explained, “The principle is simple: use Newton’s First Law. Because of acceleration and inertia, if you let go of the button when the claw is about to cut the line, its deceleration speed becomes o, inertia will push it forward, then it’s too far to cut the fishing line. So we have to stop it immediately when the claw is on its way to the line; when its speed is reduced to o, it will directly rush up, and the line will be cut.”
She made it sound easy.
The three of them looked at Viola with admiration.
A passerby who heard Viola’s explanation laughed, “This little girl is quite a trickster. There is no such grand principle. The machine has been adjusted.
Once it reaches a certain quantity, the stuffed animal will fall off. In other words, it doesn’t matter how you operate it, the toy will drop.”
Upon hearing this, someone immediately echoed, “That’s right, that’s right. What about Newton’s First Law? This is too highbrow.”
“This little girl is quite good at boasting.”
“If you can catch another stuffed animal in the same machine, I’ll admit you’re skilled!”
The crowd chimed in, one after another.
Viola remained calm, taking out two game coins and putting them in. She turned and asked Diana, “Which one do you like?”
Diana replied, “l like the little rabbit.”
Viola nodded slightly, timed it right, and released the button.
Pop.
The white plush rabbit fell down.
“Vio rocks! ”
Diana immediately took out the little rabbit.
Several onlookers were dumbfounded.
No one expected Viola Thompson to catch a second stuffed toy in the claw machine.
Was it a coincidence?
Viola looked at Daisy Owen again, “Little Daisy, which one do you like?”
“l love that Panda number two!”
“Alright.” Viola nodded slightly.
Soon, Panda number two also dropped down.
In just a few short minutes, she scored six large stuffed toys.
One coincidence, two coincidences, but six coincidences?
The onlookers’ faces were full of shock, and they were completely convinced.
“It’s true that we should read more!”
“Can the young lady repeat Newton’s First Law?”
It wasn’t until around five in the evening that Viola returned home with the cat.
Reg Thompson and Olga were both sitting in the living room.
Elizabeth Thompson’s eighteenth birthday was approaching.
They needed to discuss thoroughly how to celebrate her special day.
As the top talent of River City, many influential people would attend Elizabeth’s birthday party, so they couldn’t lose face.
Another month passed in a flash.
This month, Fiona Knight’s face improved at a visible pace.
She could now completely remove the mask.
Although there were still some traces on her face, they were no longer noticeable.
As long as she kept applying the medicine, her skin would fully recover in some time.
Looking at herself in the mirror, disbelief filled Fiona’s eyes. She turned to Mrs. Knight and Aurora Scouts, “Grandma, Mom, am I really cured? Am I not dreaming?”
Aurora Scouts had slightly red eyes and nodded, “You’re not dreaming. You’re really better. Fiona, you’re fine.”
Fiona never thought the day would come so soon.
She covered her face with both hands and cried tears of joy.
Mrs. Knight was also delighted, “We should sincerely thank Miss Thompson. Without her, Fiona’s recovery wouldn’t have been this fast.”
Aurora Scouts nodded, “Mom, you’re right.”
June 12th.
Thompson’s Villa was filled with guests.
Elizabeth Thompson had become well-known over the years, and almost every influential family in River City attended her birthday banquet.
Olga went to Viola’s room and warned, “Everyone who is coming today are influential people in River City. Mind your manners, and it’s best not to go downstairs to embarrass Elizabeth.’
Viola sat at her computer desk, with her head down, “Remember to close the door when you leave.”
Olga frowned tightly, “What a wild, uneducated girl.”
Yet, Elizabeth still called her sister all the time.
An ungrateful and vicious person.
Downstairs.
Mrs. Knight, Aurora Scouts, and Fiona, dressed in gorgeous clothes, arrived at Thompson’s Villa.
“Excuse me, does Miss Thompson live here?”
The housekeeper recognized Mrs. Knight and immediately stepped forward, “Mrs. Knight, are you looking for our Miss Thompson?”
“Yes.” Mrs. Knight nodded, “Miss Thompson has incredible medical skills and cured my only granddaughter. We came today to express our gratitude to her.”
The housekeeper knew that Elizabeth Thompson was skilled in medicine and was the apprentice of Old Doctor Bruce. He immediately said, “Please wait a moment. I’ll go in and inform Miss Thompson.”
Soon.
The news that the head of River City’s eight great aristocratic families, the
Knight Family, personally came to express their gratitude for Elizabeth
Thompson healing Fiona Knight’s face spread throughout the banquet hall.
“Miss Thompson truly is the top talent of River City.”
“Why didn’t 1 raise such an excellent daughter?”
Listening to these envious voices, Elizabeth Thompson smirked and turned to the housekeeper with a gentle tone, “Quickly, invite Mrs. Knight, Mrs. Aurora,
and Miss Fiona in..
