Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A moment later, Connor and his friends arrived at the gate.

“Dominic, I’m here!”

A girl ina white T-shirt and jean shorts waved at Dominic as she called out with a smile.

Connor looked up at the girl. He knew that this girl was Cindy Stone, whom Dominic had chased this whole time. Connor was not very sure if the two were officially in a relationship.
Cindy wasn’t considered someone who would catch others’ attention at first sight. She was more like a girl-next-door type.

However, Cindy was very good at dressing up. Her clothes and accessories were branded, so she looked pretty youthful and beautiful.

Cindy and Dominic were high school classmates. Now, she was studying at Porthampton Academy of Art.

Before, when she had no classes, Cindy would go to Porthampton University to hang out with Dominic. Therefore, Connor had seen her a few times and considered her an acquaintance.

However, Connor did not have a good impression of her because he knew that Cindy only took the initiative to come to Porthampton University to hang out with Dominic at every end of the month when she did not have any money left to spend.
‘When her family gave her allowance at the beginning of the month, Cindy would seem as if she had disappeared without a trace.

To put it bluntly, in Connor’s point of view, Cindy merely treated Dominic as her ATM.

Connor and Spencer, however, knew exactly what was happening.

However, as Dominic was right in the thick of it, he had no idea what Cindy was doing.

Connor and Spencer were too shy to expose her, so they could only pretend not to notice.

“Hey, Cindy!”

Dominic saw Cindy standing at the gate, so he quickly walked up to her excitedly.

“Why are you late? I’ve been waiting for you for more than an hour…” Cindy pouted and said coquettishly.
“Class just ended. I rushed over here as soon as I could!”

Dominic was worried that Cindy would be upset, so he quickly explained.

“Okay, since you were in class, I would let it go this time!”

Cindy replied indifferently, then continued, “Let’s go. My roommates should have arrived by now. Don’t let them wait…”

“Okay!”

Dominic nodded and walked toward the bar near the university.

However, at this moment, Cindy suddenly turned to look at Connor and said in disgust, “Dominic Turner! Why is this delivery guy following us? Tell him to go away quickly. What if my roommates see him? I don’t want my roommates to know that I hang out with a loser of a delivery guy!”
Dominic was stunned. He seemed to feel awkward. No one had expected Cindy to be so direct. She literally had zero EQ.

Due to what she said, Dominic, Spencer, and Connor became extremely embarrassed.

“Cindy, what are you talking about? Please show some respect!”

Spencer shouted at Cindy unhappily.

“I wasn’t talking about you. Why are you so agitated?

“Moreover, I am going to Dusk with Dominic to have fun with my roommates. What has that got to do with the delivery boy? I don’t want to bring a delivery boy with me to Dusk. Is there a problem with that?”

Cindy rolled her eyes and replied disdainfully.

“You…”

Spencer was rendered speechless, not knowing how to counter that.

After hesitating, Spencer grabbed Connor and whispered, “Connor, let’s go. We don’t have to go!”

“Okay!”

Connor didn’t like the noise in the bar, and Cindy didn’t seem to welcome him anyway, so he did want to leave.

“Connor, Spencer, wait!”

Seeing that Connor was about to leave, Dominic quickly reached out to stop him. After all, he had asked Cindy to bring her roommates today because he wanted to match Connor with someone.

If Connor were to leave now, what was the point of going to the bar then?

“Bro, Cindy’s words were so offensive! Since she looks down on Connor, why are we still going to Dusk?”

Spencer shouted at Dominic, flustered.

Dominic seemed awkward after what Spencer said as he replied in a low voice, “Actually, Cindy didn’t mean that. She may have a sharp tongue, but she has a soft heart. Don’t take it to heart. Do this for me as a bro, okay?”
Looking at Dominic’s earnestness, Spencer hesitated.

After all, it was Dominic who invited them today. Even if they didn’t want to go because of Cindy, they should do it for Dominic.

“Dominic, isn’t this loser a delivery boy? Why did you bring him? Isn’t it embarrassing enough?”

At this moment, Cindy rolled her eyes and sneered.

“Cindy, can you stop talking for a moment!”

Dominic shouted, somewhat a little embarrassed and annoyed. Then, he walked up to Cindy and dragged her aside. “Cindy, come with me for a moment. I have something to say to you…”

“What more is there to say? I definitely won’t let this delivery guy go to Dusk with us today. If my roommates find out, won’t I be a laughing stock then?”

Cindy said loudly and emotionally to Dominic.

“Today, Connor will treat us to drinks at the bar. If he doesn’t go, who will pay?” Dominic asked helplessly.

“He is treating us to drinks at the bar?”

A trace of surprise flashed in Cindy’s eyes as she asked with a puzzled expression, “How can a poor chap like him have the money to treat us to drinks at the bar? Besides, didn’t you say that you wanted to introduce my roommate to your friend? That friend isn’t Connor, right?”
“That’s right, it is Connor!”

Dominic nodded.

“Dominic, are you crazy? Connor is a broke chap, how could my roommate like him?

“You’d better ask him to leave immediately! Don’t embarrass yourself, okay?”

‘When Cindy found out that the so-called friend Dominic mentioned was Connor, she immediately became angry and started screeching.
She was very, and she didn’t care about Connor’s feelings at all.

‘When the students passing by heard Cindy, they all looked at her, Dominic, and the others curiously.

“Cindy, can you keep your voice down? Connor is my best friend. He just broke up with someone not long ago, so I only wanted to comfort him. What’s wrong with that?”
Dominic gritted his teeth and said to Cindy in a low voice.

“Dominic, why are you friends with a broke chap like Connor?”

Cindy asked in confusion.

“Cindy, aren’t you pushing it a little too much today?”

At this moment, Spencer finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and shouted at Cindy.

“How am I pushing it too much? I’m just telling the truth. Isn’t Connor just a broke boy who delivers food?

“Whatever it is, I don’t care. If Connor comes to Dusk with us today, I’m not going. I won’t introduce my roommate to someone like him!”
Cindy pouted and said arrogantly.

“Bro, why don’t you guys go? I don’t want to join anymore!”

Connor, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.

After saying this, Connor walked away without looking back..
