âYou wanted to know the difference between the two, right? If itâs a romantic relationship, then there will be more intimate actions, like kissing. But if thereâs no romantic relationship, then there wouldnât be a desire to kiss the other person.â His thin lips parted and closed as he spoke in a low murmuring voice.
âDo you want to kiss me?â he asked.
Her gaze involuntarily fell upon his lips.
His lips were sharp and defined, thin yet with a hint of sexiness. Suddenly, she had an urge to try kissing those lips, to know what it would feel like.
Oh my god, what is she thinking! Jasper suddenly felt that his previous thought was like something lewd and inappropriate.
Oh my god, what is she thinking! Jasper suddenly felt that his previous thoughts were like those of a pervert or a womanizer!
âYou, youâre not serious!â She said in a flustered tone, âIf youâre going to the mixer, let me make a quick call to my roommates and let them know!â
With that, she grabbed her phone and hurriedly left the table to make a call outside.
He watched her figure through the transparent floor-to-ceiling window.
In the end, she didnât kiss him. Does this mean that she never really considered him as a potential partner?
Will his waiting ultimately yield the desired outcome?
Perhaps only time can provide him with an answer!
Regardless, he will continue to wait.
During the weekend, Jasper and William went to the gathering location together, while Jasperâs three roommates rode along in Williamâs car.
When they saw Williamâs Porsche, they couldnât help but admire it. He truly lived up to being the childhood friend of the princess, like a prince and princess from a fairytale.
âIs Barlow really coming to the mixer with us?â Horea couldnât help but ask again.
âOf course, heâs coming with us,â Jasper replied.
While Jasperâs attire was similar to his usual style, the other three girls had clearly put in extra effort to dress up. Even so, Grace stood out among the four girls.
In the car, Meave, who was the most talkative, asked, âBarlow, are you going to the mixer too? You must have a lot of girls chasing after you in your department!â
âI just want to follow Jasper and join in on the fun,â said William. âAnd, since you guys are Jasperâs roommates, you can just call out my name.â
The three girls looked thrilled at this and Jasper curiously asked, âWilliam, do you have a lot of girls chasing after you?â
âOh my god, Jasper, donât tell me you donât know,â exclaimed Meave. âYou have to understand, at Stanford University, so many girls have fallen for you, your childhood sweetheart. There was even a ranking list before, and William was at the top as the guy most girls wanted to date!â
Jasper blinked in surprise, never realizing that his childhood friend was so popular. âWilliam, youâre amazing.â
âThat kind of ranking list doesnât mean anything,â William said. For him, there was only one thing he wanted, and that was her.
When the five of them arrived at the KTV for the gathering, they went to the designated private room where many other Stanford University students were already present.
Although Jasper didnât know these people, they all seemed to know Jasper and William, as they could call out their names. directly, indicating their popularity on campus.
Especially some of the girls, who were excited to see William and eager to show off their best side in front of him.
Some even ran up to William from time to time, asking if he wanted water, drinks, or tissues, in short, just trying to make conversation.
Jasper was now witnessing firsthand just how popular William was.
However, William always responded with a calm demeanor, showing a cold and distant attitude towards those girls.
