Chapter 4

At the welcome party, my brother was giving a speech as a representative of the graduate students. I specifically sent a message to the scammer.

[Lucas, I see you, you're so handsome!]

That scammer, either stupid or dumb, replied without hesitation while my brother was still speaking on stage.

[Of course]

I hadn't had time to laugh when I felt a chill. I turned around to see the instructor behind me, looking at me coldly.

The welcome party was held during our Freshman Orientation Week, and we weren't allowed to bring phones, even at night.

However, my brother insisted I take photos for him to show off, so I secretly brought it.

There were quite a few people who brought phones to the event. As long as it wasn't too blatant, everyone turned a blind eye, including the instructors.

But I don't know why the instructor singled me out among all the people.

"How many times have I said, no phones allowed. Give it to me, you can get it back after the party is over."

I handed my phone to the instructor, left with no choice but to stare blankly at my brother on stage.

School had just started, how had I already made enemies?

Olivia sat down in the empty seat beside me. "Ava, did I miss anything interesting?"

Olivia was my roommate, a cute girl, though her style was a bit outdoorsy. I didn't mind that.

My dad had stressed a million times that I should get along well with my roommates, otherwise even he, as the dean, couldn't help me.

"You missed quite a show."

Olivia paused slightly, "What show?"

"The show of the instructor confiscating my phone," I was bitter, poor little me.

Olivia smiled, with a hint of sweetness.

"Don't worry Ava, Instructor Ethan is very nice. He'll give it back to you later. Besides, we're college students now, not middle or high school students. They shouldn't be confiscating phones anymore."

I nodded.

My brother came off stage and immediately pulled out his phone, probably wanting to ask me for his handsome photos so he could post them on social media and show off.
