Chapter 17 Hot dogs? I honestly didn't expect him to offerthat, but I didn't want to disappoint him.

So, I quickly feigned eagerness. "Sure, I'm actually pretty hungry." Liam chimed in right away, "You're hungry? Why didn't you say so? I've got a bag of instant noodles here. Letmake one for you." Huh? I was about to decline, but Liam had already torn open the bag.

Before long, the rich aroma of instant noodles wafted through the dormitory.

Matthew opened the fridge. "Perfect! I have two packs of meatballs. You can eat those with the noodles." These guys weren't givinga chance to say anything.

Still, I eventually sat at the table. I didn't mind using their cutlery and dug into the noodles.

My parents had never leteat stuff like this, but honestly, it tasted just as good as Michelin-starred food. With the addition of the hot dogs and meatballs, the flavor was out of this world.

Benjamin swallowed and grabbed a fork. "Lethave a bite." Liam and Matthew leaned in as well. "I want stoo!" "Just lethave a sip of the soup." I watched in shock as they eagerly devoured from the bowl I had just eaten from, completely unfazed by my saliva.

Seeing them crowded aroundsharing a bowl of noodles, I suddenly felt like I was part of their circle.

After taking a shower, just as I was about to get into bed, my phone rang. It was a call from Lina. I hesitated but decided to answer. I hoped nothing had happened on her way home.

"William, can you cdown for a moment? I'm returning your clothes." So, she was here to return my clothes. Honestly, I didn't want the items she had worn.

However, since she had call this way at such a late hour, it would be rude to send her away. I gave in and went downstairs.

When I stepped outside, I saw Lina.

She wasn't alone. A beautiful girl stood beside her, dressed in a T-shirt and jeans. She was curvy, and her long hair flowed gracefully. She was just as attractive as Lina, though her expression was a bit cold.

Lina handedmy jacket. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but I raised a hand to signal her to stop.

"No need to say anything. I'm not interested in hearing it. If there's nothing else, I'll head back upstairs." At my words, Lina's face fell, but I didn't want to deal with it and turned to leave. Just as I walked a few steps away, I felt someone grab my arm.

"Stop! What's with your attitude?" The girl accompanying Lina glared at me, her face filled with righteous indignation.

"Don't act like Lina did something wrong! You're the one who tricked her, and now she can' be m he can't even b upset? We chere in the middle of the night to return your clothes, and you couldn't even say thank you? Don't you have manners? Is this how your parents raised you?" Me, lacking manners? I looked at her incredulously. "If I showed up at your dorm in the middle of the night, would you cdown willingly? Would you thank me?" She raised her chin arrogantly. "Who do you think you are? I don't know you!" I sneered. "That's exactly what I was thinking. Who do you think you are? I don't know you!" "You!" Before she could respond, I forcefully shook off her hand and went back into the dormitory.

e Arguing at the foot of the building late at night was simply providing entertainment for everyone laidn't want to be the star of the campus anymore. With Joshua's issue resolved, I just wanted to quietly enjoy my ordinary campus life.

The next morning, when I woke up, m my roommates were all gone. I hurriedly got ready and rushed to class, instinctively heading toward the back row. That was when I heard someone call my name.
