Chapter 4

I had a dream, a very long dream.

I dreamed I was back in my freshman year. Back then, my dad was still alive, and our family was comfortably middle-class.

Liam was the golden boy of our university, heir to a massive fortune.

Even though he was as cool and aloof as an ice prince, countless fangirls still followed him everywhere.

When he was in class, you could bet his fangirls were waiting by the door.

But back then, everyone said the campus belle and he were the perfect match. Both from wealthy families, having known each other since childhood – it would be a waste if they didn't have a childhood sweethearts romance.

I just ran my mouth off in the dorm one night.

"Tch, what kind of man is Liam? If I were him, with so many gorgeous girls chasing me, I'd give every single one of them a home. I'd be doing myself a disservice not to."

"So many beautiful girls following him, tsk tsk tsk, and he still hasn't picked anyone? Let me guess, he must be gay! Hehehehe..."

It was just dorm room chatter before bed, but the next day, it spread like wildfire.

Liam caught me directly after class.

I was a little scared, so I told him, "I didn't mean it. It's all your fault for being too handsome. I like you too, I just wanted to get your attention."

"If you dare to hum right now, it means you like me. Hmm~ Now you don't want to talk, do you?"

"Okay okay, I'm leaving now, bye-bye."

I hadn't even lifted my foot.

But then, Liam blocked my path.

That usually cold, handsome face now held a smile in his eyes, and he hooked his lips.

"Hmm~"

"I hummed. So I'm your boyfriend now. Come have dinner with me."

I was stunned. Like, how did I just randomly snag myself a rich, hot boyfriend? Who's luckier than me?

The more time we spent together, the more I felt like I'd hit the jackpot.
