I almost ruled the world

Lyanna sat in her seat and listened to the teacher talking in the classroom, resting her chin with her hand in boredom, looking out the window.

Then she seemed to think of something, moved her mouth slightly, and shouted in a voice that only she could hear, "Hey, Clark."

Nothing happened, but it was all Brianna expected.

But as long as Clark heard it, it was enough.

So she continued to speak in a soft voice, "What the teacher said is so boring, let's chat?

—Although it is one-sided. "

"Your scarf is quite warm, but my senior is very curious about why I wear a scarf that looks like a man... He is so gossip."

In fact, Peter Parker didn't notice this matter at all, let alone he ran away with a flushed face before, so he wouldn't run over to ask her about it out of nowhere.

Brianna was also sure that Clark would not care about these little things.

"I should be able to leave school early today. What do you want to eat? Oh, but even if you have something to eat, I can't hear it."

"How about fruit pie?"

Brianna couldn't help laughing, because she recently discovered that Clark didn't seem to like this kind of dessert very much.

"Miss Byers!" A stern female voice suddenly sounded not far away, and the whole classroom suddenly became quiet.

"What have you been talking to yourself about?"

Others also cast their eyes on Brianna.

"Damn." Brianna murmured softly. She looked at Mrs. Feynman who was approaching her, concealed the light in her eyes, and quickly showed a guilty expression, "Sorry, Mrs. Feynman."

She confessed honestly, "I'm thinking about what to make for dinner today."

Mrs. Feynman gave Brianna a puzzled look, but the others couldn't help laughing.

Brianna's face quickly turned pale, and she looked around at her classmates who laughed at her, "Um, did I say something wrong?"

"Shut up." Mrs. Feynman's stern gaze swept over the others, and the laughter in the classroom suddenly became quiet.

"Miss Byers, this is a school, you should focus more on your studies, maybe I should have a good talk with your guardian when I have time."

"No, no, no!" Brianna was a little anxious, she waved her hand, "I just like to do these things, and it has nothing to do with my guardian."

"..." Mrs. Feynman looked at her for a while with scrutiny, "Let's continue with the class."

"Huh." Brianna breathed a sigh of relief.

A strange boy beside him covered his mouth and smiled at her, "Your hobby is really strange."

Brianna glared at him, then said sullenly, "It's all your fault, Clark."

"You'd better bring takeaway home tonight."

……

Clark's hands were on the keyboard, his eyes were fixed on the computer screen, but even so, he didn't even type a word after 10 minutes.

The colleague Jimmy next to him looked at him strangely several times.

This is unreasonable, because Clark is usually the most logical person in the entire newspaper. His efficiency is very high, and it is rare for him to be stuck for a long time like them.

And the expression on his face at this time is also very rich.

At first he turned his head slightly, as if someone stopped him.

Then Clark's expression became weird, just as weird as he was still wearing the work suit he wore a few days ago in such a cold day.

Not long after, he sighed softly again, as if disappointed by what was on the computer screen.

That expression was exactly like when she saw that Jane was about to share her homemade desserts with everyone.

Jimmy took the opportunity to fish... Ah, no.When he went to the pantry to pour a cup of coffee, he glanced at his computer screen, which was obviously a blank electronic document.

...he was really weird today.

And before he had time to figure out what was going on, Clark frowned tightly again, lowered his eyes, clasped his hands, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Jimmy was really curious, so he walked over and stretched out his hand to chat with Clark as usual.

Who knew that before he stretched out his hand, he heard Clark softly call a strange name he had never heard before in a helpless tone, "Brianna..."

Um?Jimmy shone the alarm sharply, and he suddenly appeared in front of Clark, "Who's Brianna?"

Clark raised his eyes and glanced at him, "A...friend."

With coffee in his hand, Jimmy continued to approach him, raising his eyebrows at him, "Girlfriend?"

"No." Clark stepped back and shook his head towards Jimmy, "She's only 16 years old."

Jimmy gasped, covered his mouth in feigned surprise, and said, "She's only 16! God, Clark, I was wrong about you!"

The acting was so superb that Louise Lane, who was walking by, frowned and stopped, looking at them suspiciously.

"It's not what you think, Miss Lane." Jimmy first explained for Clark, "It's his friend."

After Louise left, Clark turned to look at him.

Jimmy laughed, "Just kidding, of course I know what kind of person you are!"

Then Clark turned to look at his computer again.

"Stop pretending!" Jimmy patted his strong shoulder, "You haven't written a word for almost half an hour, why don't we go to the archives to find that Leo Pound document?"

This is the code that Jimmy unilaterally agreed with Clark, the code to go out for a stroll and catch fish.

But Clark never delivered. He had to work, help ordinary people in trouble, and even take care of Brianna.

"Sorry, maybe next time, Jimmy."

"Okay, okay." Jimmy was a little sour, "Thinking about Brianna is more important than fishing with me."

When Clark came home with a pizza, he saw Brianna lying on the dining table in a daze.

He looked up sleepily when he heard the door open, "You're so late today, Clark."

"There are a lot of manuscripts, and I worked overtime for a while." Clark put the almost cold pizza on the table, and he changed the subject to ask about Brianna, "At school today..."

It's just that before he finished speaking, Brianna looked at him with some dissatisfaction, "I was criticized by the teacher and laughed at by other students... I just said, I always mess up everything."

"But you really shouldn't talk to me in class." Clark paused, and looked at her with a smile in his blue eyes, "Fortunately, Mrs. Feynman didn't call the parents, otherwise I have to explain to her I really didn't abuse children."

"Pfft." Brianna couldn't help laughing, and then the smile on her face slowly subsided again, and she lowered her head listlessly, "Sorry, Clark. But I just wanted to talk to you, after all, in I had few friends at school and felt out of place with them."

Clark lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Brianna glanced at his expression and knew that now was not the best time to make a request. Of course, she never thought that Clark Kent could be dealt with so easily.

"Forget it. I knew you wouldn't believe that I really wanted to save the world with you."

Brianna changed the subject just in time, reaching out to open the pizza box, "I'm so hungry, I could even eat the whole box of pizza."

It's her favorite Hawaiian flavor.

When eating pizza, what Brianna looked forward to most was to eat the tip with the most filling. She was about to speak, but she heard Clark in front of her say.

"I believe you."

Brianna was so startled that she almost bit off her tongue. She looked at Clark in disbelief... Could it be that the matter was solved so easily?

"But this way, your stomach will be uncomfortable."

"..." She took a deep breath, which is what he meant to believe, not that she really wanted to save the world, but that she could eat the whole box of pizza.

Brianna showed him a forced smile, "Then I am really, thank you for your concern."
