Inside Hudson University,
The school had always been filled with the sons and daughters of the wealthy. They tended to treat ordinary students with a sense of superiority.
After all, in this day and age, money speaks volumes.
Wyatt and Daniel had often been bullied by these rich second-generation students in the past. But things seemed to be changing.
Now, people in their dormitory would go out of their way to avoid them. The guys on the third floor didn't dare to mess with them either. Even the previously arrogant wealthy students would steer clear when they saw them.
Ryan had once led a group to stir up trouble for room 306, but they had come away defeated. On his return to school today, he advised his friends not to provoke William.
He may have only said this to those close to him, but in a place like school, how quickly do you think word spreads?
In no time, the name 'William' was known throughout Hudson University.
The fact that Ryan would give such advice about someone—just how extraordinary must that person be?
William, however, was nonchalant about these minor matters. After all, not everyone in the university knew him. He went to a couple of classes in the morning with Wyatt and the others.
"William, fancy a drink at lunch?" Wyatt, though timid, was a smooth operator. He had seen William take down Joshua's crew just two nights ago. Sticking close to William seemed like the best strategy; who would dare bully them then?
William replied, "I'll eat at the school cafeteria at noon."
"The school cafeteria?" Wyatt was puzzled by William's choice but said, "Then let's go together."
William asked, "Do you need a meal card for the school cafeteria?"
What a peculiar question!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsn't it common knowledge that university and even high school cafeterias require meal cards?
"Of course!" Wyatt quickly responded, smiling, "You're new here, so you probably don't have a meal card yet. Just use mine."
"After eating, I'll transfer the money to you through mobile banking," William said, fully aware that financial matters should be clear-cut even among friends, especially since he and Wyatt weren't that close.
Wyatt chuckled, "How much does it cost to eat in the school cafeteria? Don't worry about it, my treat."
Paul chimed in from behind, "Wyatt, why don't you treat us all to lunch today?"
Wyatt glanced back at Paul, whose robust physique seemed to challenge anyone who'd offer him a meal. "Are you kidding me?" Wyatt retorted, then sighed in resignation, "Alright, alright, I'll cover it."
Hearing this, Daniel grinned from ear to ear. This group of ordinary students weren't exactly wealthy. They'd receive a monthly allowance from home, but most would spend it quickly within the first week or two. By month's end, they'd resort to instant noodles and sandwiches to get by.
And it was almost the end of the month now.
The school cafeteria was always packed during meal times, primarily with freshmen. Most of the senior students preferred ordering takeout since the campus was open. Who wouldn't prefer the taste of outside food, especially if it's better than what the cafeteria offers?
William followed Wyatt and the others, holding a food tray, lining up in the cafeteria. Approaching a serving station, he glanced at the dishes and casually picked a few.
"Hey, I'll have this, this, and this one..."
The cafeteria workers who serve food are typically a bit impatient, but William's friendly demeanor genuinely brightened her day. Women, regardless of age, always appreciate compliments and respect, and this is no different for the cafeteria staff.
Especially when someone as handsome as William comes along, exhibiting such a unique charisma. The lady's hands stopped trembling and she heaped William's food box full.
Wyatt was astounded.
Usually, the cafeteria ladies have a stern expression, the idea of service with a smile isn't their thing. Yet, she served William's food with a grin that would rival that of a young girl.
Is it just because of his good looks that he gets preferential treatment?
Or was it because William called her "big sister," making her feel younger?
It must be it!
With this thought in mind, after William finished getting his food, Wyatt peeked through the service window with a sly grin, saying, "Sister, I'd like this, this, and this, and a little extra please!"
The woman's demeanor instantly turned cold. She gave Wyatt a glare and when serving his food, her hand shook even more.
Wyatt grimaced. Such blatant favoritism!
"Sister, this is..."
"Sis? Brat, I'm old enough to be your mother!"
She put down her ladle, giving Wyatt a look that clearly said he was getting no extra servings.
Chided, Wyatt could only sulk away, holding his food tray.
Paul followed behind, saying, "Auntie, please give me a bit more, I eat a lot."
...
In the dormitory's dining area, the four of them sat at a table. Wyatt compared the contents of William's food tray to that of Paul's.
Damn, even if it's the same dishes, even Paul seems to have gotten more meat in his portion than Wyatt.
As William and the others were eating, Evelyn and her friend Lucy approached.
"William! You're eating here too?"
Before Evelyn could greet William, Lucy, with her tray in hand, had already walked over, naturally bringing Evelyn along.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilliam remembered Lucy; she was Evelyn's close friend. They had met before and even exchanged WhatsApp contacts, though they hadn't chatted.
"Hello," William greeted Lucy with a smile.
That smile seemed to catch Lucy off guard, causing her to blush.
"You... you're a freshman?" Lucy stammered, her face turning crimson as she looked at William.
"Yes, I'm a freshman."
"I'm Lucy, a sophomore in the dance department. You're friends with Evelyn, right?"
"Yeah, have a seat." William nodded at Evelyn as well.
Evelyn and Lucy took seats at the adjacent table.
Wyatt and the two other single guys were so enamored they almost forgot to eat.
Being with William had its perks!
When did they ever have beautiful girls willingly sit next to them during meals before?
It's not that they're specifically looking for relationships, but having a beauty beside them during meals would surely boost their appetite.
They wouldn't dare to approach Evelyn, but Lucy, with her charming demeanor, did make them hopeful.
"Hi, I'm Wyatt, William's roommate. We've met before." Wyatt said, his eyes gleaming at Lucy. If he could win Lucy's heart, it would be quite a feat.
University life is full of youthful vigor. Besides studying, students play games and seek romance. If you don't date in college, it feels like a missed opportunity.
"Hello." Lucy, with her soft, chubby cheeks, smiled endearingly. She had seen Wyatt before but hadn't really paid him any attention.
Daniel and Paul also introduced themselves. Soon, they all began chatting and eating, all except the silent William.
It was only now that William realized he didn't know what major Evelyn was studying.
If he knew her major, wouldn't that hint at what she might be interested in?
