Chapter 013 The School Belle Invites Me to Dinner
"Your Facebook friend gave you ten million? Who is he?" Sarah asked, even more curious.
"Charles, the guy who asked for my Facebook this morning!" Jessica answered.
"Him? He's LonelySmoke? Oh my God!"
Sarah was shocked!
She never expected that the seemingly shy and reserved guy would be an Ultra-rich Patron who spends lavishly online.
The contrast was just too great.
Actually, a few wealthy suitors who had pursued Jessica crossed Sarah's mind earlier.
But none of them included Charles.
Because Charles was known as a loser in school!
Maybe Jessica didn't pay attention to these campus rumors.
But Sarah was different.
She knew all the campus gossip inside!
Charles, a known loser, turned out to be an Ultra-rich Patron who casually tipped $1.5 million in gifts?
"Jessica, are you sure it's Charles? Not someone else?"
"Why, do you know him?" Jessica asked.
"Not really, but I've heard about him. Charles is a junior in our department, same grade as us. He had been pursuing a girl named Lisa for three years but never succeeded. He often delivered breakfast to her dorm, confessed once a month with candles, hearts, love songs, and small gifts, but Lisa never accepted him!"
What Sarah didn't know was that Charles had already won Lisa over a month ago, but Lisa asked him to keep it low-key.
He forbade him Lisa posting about it on Facebook, so not many people knew they had dated.
"No way. Charles is so rich and he's not bad looking either. Why couldn't he win Lisa over in three years?" Jessica was even more puzzled.
She had seen Lisa before, and while she was somewhat pretty, she wasn't exceptionally unique.
There were plenty of girls in school who were prettier and more talented than Lisa.
On the other hand, Charles, with such a terrifying family background, could casually tip $1.5 million to a streamer. Such a wealthy young man was far beyond an ordinary rich second generation.
It's common for rich men to drive cars worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But to shell out a million dollars in tips, that's rare.
Among the wealthy men Jessica knew, none had that kind of financial power.
"I get it now. Charles didn't win over Lisa because he was pretending to be poor. This guy hid his identity and even took part-time jobs delivering packages. No one in school knew he was rich. I've heard that some wealthy young men have unique quirks, they seek true love and don't want a girl to be with them just for money. So, the prince pretends to be a frog. Charles must be one of them!"
Sarah, who loved reading online novels, had a vivid imagination, so she imagined and analyzed it automatically.
"Is that really the case? I think he might be disappointed and decided to stop pretending." Jessica nodded in agreement.
She suddenly felt that Charles was really excellent and considerate!
For the girl he liked, he was willing to do so much.
A wealthy young man, willing to do those not-so-dignified jobs for true love, persisted for three years just to move the other person.
That's so romantic!
People can be so strange.
A wealthy young man delivering packages makes you feel he's sacrificing a lot.
But a regular student delivering packages seems normal, nothing special.
Haha, that's so real!
Jessica was seen as an unattainable goddess by ordinary students.
But at her core, she was just a student too.
She also liked boys who were more 'excellent' than her.
Charles, in her eyes, was quite excellent.
"Sarah, how do you think I should thank him? He gave me $1.5 million in gifts, and my live stream followers increased by tens of thousands. But I feel the gift is too big, too heavy!"
Jessica felt a bit uneasy.
"In my opinion, that guy must be determined to pursue you. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so generous. But Jessica, you must hold your ground and not sleep with him casually," Sarah suggested.
"I got it!"
Jessica nodded.
Then she picked up her phone and sent Charles a message.
Jessica: [Charles, thank you for the gifts. I feel really embarrassed. How about I treat you to dinner tomorrow at 6:30 PM to thank you for your generous support!]
'What? Jessica wants to treat me to dinner?'
Seeing Jessica's message, Charles was a bit stunned.
He never thought that one day Jessica would invite him for dinner!
She was a prominent figure in school, the vice president of the Student Council, the most beautiful girl in the School of Arts, and the second most beautiful girl at Lacus Magnus University.
Ordinary guys wouldn't even dare to pursue such a girl.
At most, they would secretly admire her from afar.
And now, she was inviting him to dinner?
[Sure, having dinner with Ms. Jessica would be my honor!]
Charles quickly typed a reply.
Jessica: [Alright then, 6:30 PM, East Gate of the school, don't be late!]
Charles: [Do you have enough money?]
Jessica: [Haha, don't worry, eat as much as you want.]
Jessica replied quickly, not minding Charles joking with her.
On the surface, Jessica gave the impression of being elegant and graceful.
But in private, she seemed to be a lively girl.
And she was talktive.
As they chatted, Charles could barely keep up with her pace.
For every message he sent, she would reply with at least two or three.
Thinking back to when he used to text Lisa, he would send over a dozen messages, and she might reply to one.
And that would be two or three hours later.
Charles felt very disheartened.
He kept deceiving himself, thinking that if he persisted, Lisa would eventually love him.
But reality kept disappointing him.
If a man doesn't improve himself, no matter how much you do, in her eyes, you're just a bug.
"Charles, stop playing with your phone. Do you want to play a game? We need a support, I'll help you reach Gold rank!" Robert shouted.
"Give me a break. I know your level. You've been playing League of Legends for seven years and you're still in Silver rank. You say you'll help me reach Gold? You must be joking!" Charles rolled his eyes.
"Ionia of us is different from other servers. I'm Silver in the top server, but I can crush challengers from other servers. If it weren't for my noob teammates, I wouldn't be stuck in Silver for seven years!"
"I'm not playing. Go away, I need to chat with Jessica!"
"You're just bragging!" Robert said.
······
In a blink of an eye, it was 6:30 PM the next day.
At Lacus Magnus University East Gate, a girl wearing a mid-length white T-shirt, white sneakers, and a ponytail had been waiting there for over ten minutes.
There were many students around, but her turn-back rate was almost over 90%.
Even girls couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Her long, slender legs were simply eye-catching.
Though she dressed simply, it showcased her perfect figure and youthful energy.
Moreover, when the boys saw her face, they couldn't move their legs!
"Who is that girl? She's so damn pretty!"
"You don't know Jessica? Our Student Council Vice President, Dance Club President, one of the top three beauties in school!"
"So she's Jessica? It seems that she's waiting for someone!"
