The Female Leads Truly Loves You - Chapter 432

Chapter 432: Happy New Year, may you be happy
The bar, which had been quiet and soothing, was now starting to get lively.

Many people began to gather by the windows, standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows. Looking down, even from this high floor, Sam, with his excellent vision, could see a sea of ‘ants’—people moving about.

It was so densely packed that it could trigger anyone’s fear of crowds.

“So many people, it’s still so lively down there.”

Isabella remarked as she looked out.

Angel, lounging on the sofa with her fur coat draped over her shoulders, exuded the aura of a noble young lady.

Especially with her high heels dangling from her feet, swaying slightly but not falling off, it was a sight that could drive anyone mad with desire.

“What’s so interesting? It’s just the moment when 59 seconds turns into 01 seconds. What’s the big deal?”

Angel didn’t find time particularly precious. Or rather, having so much, she didn’t know what to pursue with her extra time. She didn’t need to find ways to live well in this fast-paced world like most people.

Sophie ignored Angel’s words. She turned her head honestly, not standing by the window like Isabella, but looking out into the endless night sky.

There was nothing there.

In contrast, the human world was bustling, with countless lights shining brightly, making the night sky seem dim.

It was like the blank space in a painting, something most ordinary people wouldn’t notice.

Sam looked at the three girls, each with their own attitude and posture.

As the only male in this club, he decided he needed to do something at the end of this year.

He put down his canvas bag, then stood up, supporting himself on his knees.

“Only three minutes left. Aren’t you coming over?”

He looked at Sophie and Angel.

Angel squinted. She was in a good mood, satisfied with the two gifts Sam had given her, even though he had given special gifts to each girl.

Perhaps there were other reasons, other factors.

But those didn’t matter now.

“Are you that interested? Nothing will happen outside tonight. What’s there to see?”

Sam smiled mysteriously.

“What if something does happen?”

Maybe influenced by Sam’s enigmatic tone, Angel thought for a moment and then put her legs down.

She stood up.

“It better be something interesting.”

Then Sam looked at the cool girl still sitting.

Sophie was looking at him.

Sam smiled.

“Come on, since we’re from the same club, we should stick together.”

Sophie instantly thought of something. That thing hadn’t happened yet tonight.

Could he be planning to use this opportunity?

No… impossible. How could that happen now?

But…

Her cheeks flushed slightly.

She stood up.

So the four of them stood by the floor-to-ceiling window. Many people had gathered by the window, as time was running out.

There was no time for pretense now.

“Two minutes left.”

Isabella looked over, smiling at the three beside her.

She remembered something and smiled beautifully.

Her smile was always beautiful, but now it was clear that it held something more.

It was sincere, a warmth flowing from her heart.

“I’m so happy to be here with you all, about to welcome the New Year. I wish you all a happy New Year and happiness.”

Her smiling face, under the specially brightened bar lights, was moving.

It naturally created an atmosphere.

How to describe it?

It felt like completing something significant, making life seem more complete.

Like achieving something in a game.

Sam smiled at her.

“Why does it feel so sad?”

Isabella smiled back, “Because soon I’ll be leaving. I won’t be at school much next semester. So in the next phase of youth, you are the true protagonists.”

Angel scoffed.

“Whether you’re here or not, I’m the protagonist.”

Sophie suddenly asked.

“Have you decided what to do after graduation?”

Isabella smiled, reaching out to pat Sophie’s head.

“Of course, I’ve already decided.”

But she didn’t reveal her choice, and Sophie didn’t press her, just nodding.

“Whatever it is, I wish you success.”

Angel snorted.

“She’s not stupid, quite smart… hard not to be happy, right?”

Isabella put her other arm around Angel’s shoulder, teasing her.

“Even your blessings are awkward? Angel, you’re not straightforward at all~”

“Why are you hugging me! Let go!”

“No way~ It’s this time, I want to do what I want!”

Isabella suddenly said.

Everyone looked at her curiously.

Isabella, under their curious gazes, suddenly spread her arms.

Then she hugged Sophie and Angel on either side.

Both girls were stunned, not expecting this.

Sam was also surprised, watching the scene.

What did this mean? Was she messing around?

Isabella looked at Sam arrogantly.

“You’re not the harem king, I am!”

“What… let go of me!”

“This club really has no normal people, except me.”

Sam couldn’t help but laugh at Isabella.

So this was how she expressed her wish?

But why did it make him want to punch her instead of feeling touched?

Playing along, Sam raised his head, using an exaggerated anime protagonist smile.

“Hehehe, even if you want to, you can’t be the harem king!”

“Look outside!”

Isabella suddenly shouted, making Sophie and Angel look out the window.

They saw nothing different, everything was the same.

Just as they were puzzled.

“Gotcha~”

“Gotcha~~”

In a flash, Isabella kissed both girls on the cheek.

Angel and Sophie turned to look at Isabella in shock.

Isabella laughed happily.

“Have you lost your mind!?”

“Hey, hey, don’t pinch! I’m not Sam, no tickling, that’s cheating! Cheating!!”

The three girls started playfully fighting.

Normally, in this bar, someone would have come over to remind them to keep the noise down.

But on this special day, at this special moment, any noise and excitement seemed understandable.

Sam stood by, watching. If he could, he would join in.

But unfortunately, if he did, it would change the nature of the situation.

But watching wasn’t bad either. At least this moment was beautiful.

At least now, everyone was happy, no conflicts, no jealousy.

They were all travelers in this journey of youth.

Seeing the sights together.

Walking through the mud together.

Experiencing the weather together.

And gaining the irreplaceable friendship of youth.

As Sam watched quietly, suddenly—

“Five!”

The voice wasn’t just from the bar, but from outside the window! From the distant square below!

The countdown voice echoed through the crowd, reaching through the floors, through the windows, as if spreading across the universe.

“Four!”

The three girls stopped their playful fight.

They seemed to realize something.

Even Angel, who had said she didn’t care about this moment, was silent, her eyes drawn to the window.

“Three!”

Sam moved to Angel’s side.

As he arrived, she reached out and held his hand tightly.

“Two!”

Isabella held Angel and Sophie with her hands.

Maybe neither girl liked doing this, but at this moment, they had no reason to refuse.

“One!!”

“Happy New Year!!”

The cheers erupted, in their ears, from downstairs.

As if echoing across the universe, in every corner of the world.

“Boom!!”

Fireworks lit up the night sky.

Not from the nearby square, but from a distant direction.

Though the distance wasn’t enough to light up everyone’s faces, it made all eyes turn that way.

Even Angel looked up.

Sam could clearly see the fireworks reflected in her eyes.

He squeezed her hand, smiling.

“Happy New Year.”

Angel turned, showing a rare, incredibly sweet smile.

Sam didn’t forget the other girl. He glanced aside, catching her hidden gaze.

Her eyes, under the bright lights, were also shining.

She mouthed silently.

“Happy New Year, Sam.”

“You too, Sophie.”
