Hudson University is also a renowned private university in New York City.

Lila drove William to the school.

Throughout the journey, William was attentively observing how Lila was driving, instinctively taking note of all the details.

As their car entered the university town, it soon attracted a lot of attention.

Lila was driving a red Maserati Ghibli, one of the few saloons made by Maserati. It's not overly expensive, but her license plate was unforgettable.

"Lila's here!"

"Get ready, everyone!"

"Darn it, if I succeed today, I'll book Marquee nightclub for a month and treat you all! All expenses on me!"

...

The moment Lila's car parked, a group of people immediately swarmed around it. At the front was a skinny, pale-looking young man, behind him was a crowd each holding a vibrant bouquet of roses.

"Lila! I love you!" The young man in the lead took a big step forward, holding a diamond ring, he actually knelt on one knee in front of Lila, "Be my girlfriend!"

As soon as his words fell, balloons rose up all over the campus, with banners on them all printed with the same message - Lila, I love you!

Lila coldly stared at the young man in front of her without saying a word.

"Be his girlfriend!"

"Be his girlfriend!"

The crowd around them started to make a fuss.

"Edward Brown! Tell everyone to disperse. Stop bothering me." Lila couldn't take it anymore, it was getting out of hand.

The sky was filled with banners attached to balloons, it was rather intimidating. Not to mention, Edward and nearly a hundred people behind him held flowers over their heads, shouting in unison under the sea of flowers.

Any average girl might have been moved by Edward's romantic display, but Lila felt only annoyance.

Edward was still on one knee, ring held out, looking at Lila and firmly said, "Be my girlfriend. I won't stand up until you agree."

"Then stay on your knees!" Lila was extremely annoyed. It was at this point that she realized William hadn't left the car. She turned around and opened the car door for William, "What are you still sitting there for?"

After exiting the car, William calmly said, "I wasn't paying attention to how you opened the door."

"..." Lila was amused by her annoyance. What kind of person was this?

This was the first time she had ever opened the car door for someone.

"Who's this guy, Lila?" Edward stood up abruptly, pointing at William.

Lila finally couldn't help but laugh, "Edward, can you stop bothering me? I really have no interest in you!"

Edward slowly put away his ring, his face grew cold, and he stared at William, "Kid, who are you?"

Kneeling in front of so many people, only to be rejected, and then a guy comes out of Lila's car.

Could Edward Brown stand for it?

The most important thing was what William had said when he got out of the car.

He hadn't noticed how she opened the door?

Obviously, William wasn't wealthy.

The story of a poor boy wooing a rich girl was common, but in the real world, if their social statuses didn't match, it was impossible!

William glanced at Edward, then at the pomp behind him, and at the balloons still floating in the sky. It was all quite novel.

"Talking to you!" Edward was infuriated by William's indifferent expression. He felt ignored.

Boom!

Boom! Boom!

Just as William looked up, all the balloons in the sky exploded simultaneously. Not only that, even the banners were blown into a mess.

Shreds of fabric and broken balloons started to fall.

"What the hell is going on?" Edward was stunned. How did thousands of balloons explode at the same time?

And how could the explosion of the balloons shred the banners to pieces?

"Lila, let's go." William indeed ignored Edward entirely.

A rich second-generation? A wealthy young master?

William had seen way too many of such people from ancient times to present. Never mind high-ranking officials' offspring, every prince that had offended William in the past had met a terrible fate.

"Let's go!" Lila didn't want to deal with Edward anymore, but as she passed by him, she cautioned, "Edward, don't mess with him, got it?"

Edward really wanted to beat William up right then and there, even make him disappear from this world. But even he didn't dare to ignore Lila's words.

After William and Lila had left, Edward's group immediately swarmed around him.

"Edward, who is this guy? He dares to compete with you! Tonight, we'll make sure he's finished!"

"I heard it clearly just now, that guy doesn't even know how to open a car door!"

"Heh! This pauper dares to flirt with Miss Lila? I bet he won't last three days in school."

A glint of ruthlessness flashed in Edward's eyes. He sneered, "Three days? You think he can still come to school tomorrow after he and Lila stroll around campus like this?"

What a joke!

Edward was able to pursue Lila so openly today because they had an agreement in their young masters' alliance.

They had a poker game last night within the alliance, and Edward emerged as the big winner, earning the first chance to pursue Lila.

There would be another round tonight, a game of pool. The winner would get tomorrow's opportunity.

However, regardless, only those within their alliance could pursue Lila. Anyone else who tried would become their common enemy.

Sure, Edward's failed attempt to woo Lila was somewhat embarrassing, but it was within his tolerance. However, some nobody suddenly appeared from nowhere, arriving in Lila's car, and Lila even opened the car door for him.

Once this news gets out, that guy is done for.

William never expected that just accompanying Lila would draw such hostility.

Likewise, Lila was unaware that because of her, a young masters' alliance had emerged in the school.

With information provided by Anthony Carter and having notified the principal, William's admission procedure was already taken care of when they arrived. Under Lila's guidance, William came to the male dormitory building.

"Do you remember the way now? If you want to go back to your place, you can take the school bus from the left turn we just passed, to the subway station. Then take the subway to Hunter College Station. After exiting the subway station, you'll be on East 62nd Street." Lila seriously suspected that William had no sense of direction, as he kept looking around the whole way.

"Um, don't worry about that. I usually prefer to walk!" William had a good memory. He remembered things from thousands and thousands of years ago, let alone these trivial matters.

"Walk?" Lila was stunned. From the school to East 62nd Street was over twenty kilometers. How long would it take to walk back?

Lila was slightly frustrated, she took a deep breath and said, "Alright, go check out the dorm. I won't accompany you in. This is your student ID, dorm 306. Do you need to buy any daily necessities?"

"I guess so, I don't have anything right now. You can help me buy them first, I'll go check it out. Note down how much it costs, I'll repay you next month." After finishing his words, William smiled at Lila, then walked into the male dormitory.

Lila stood in place, completely dumbfounded. As the breeze brushed against her face, her thoughts were somewhat chaotic.

Did this guy really ask her to buy his daily necessities and then deliver them to him?
