Chapter 8: You have gotten into big trouble
"Lila has lived the life of a rich heiress since childhood, always being the one to delegate tasks to others. Today, however, she's encountered a complete 180-degree turnaround.
Photocopying driver's license, opening car doors, and now even going to buy him household goods?
Even though her grandfather said to fulfill any of William's requests, is he trying to treat her like a maid?
As a member of the esteemed Carter family, the encounter has gradually sent her into a state of mind-blowing disbelief.
Her fist clenched tightly, Lila eventually pulled out her phone and dialed her younger brother's number.
"Ryan, where are you?"
"Sis? What's up? I... I'm in class."
Ryan had a hangover from last night and was currently deep in sleep. When the phone rang, he was nearly about to curse, but immediately softened when he saw the caller ID.
Lila coldly huffed, "Cut the crap, it's Sunday. Do you have class? I'm at the entrance to the male dormitory. Come down now!"
"I...wait, sis, why are you at the dormitory? I'm coming down right now."
Ryan Carter, too, was known for his fearlessness - except when it came to his sister. After hearing Lila's words, he hurriedly got dressed, washed his face and rushed downstairs.
The male dormitory was filled with students eyeing Lila from above. The presence of a goddess at their dormitory was a feast for their eyes, even if they couldn't win her over.
"What are you looking at? Turn your heads right now!" Ryan, the undisputed leader at school, snapped at the boys who were gazing at his sister.
Those who got yelled at didn't dare to make a peep, silently turning their heads away.
"What's the hurry, bro-in-law? Is my wife here?"
Of course, there were those in school who weren't afraid of Ryan and even made fun of him.
"Go to hell, Brandon! You think you can be my brother-in-law? Take a good look at yourself in the mirror!"
"Hey hey! Ryan, you've got quite the temper. You probably don't know, but Edward, that idiot, just got rejected by your sister."
Ryan responded with a middle finger, "Which one of you losers is good enough for my sister? Stop your pointless dreaming! I don't have time to waste talking with you. Go eat shit in the bathroom!"
Ryan, who lived in Room 409, quickly descended the stairs after cursing the guys in the corridor. All the male students along the way made way for him, nobody daring to mess with the young master of the Carter family.
Just as he was rushing down to the second floor, he crossed paths with William climbing up the stairs.
William, walking in the middle of the staircase, saw someone rushing down and stepped aside slightly. However, his small gesture was quite different from how others usually made way. Ryan had never seen someone so oblivious, not giving way to him.
As he was about to pass William, he suddenly stretched out his hand, intending to push him. William instinctively dodged, leaving Ryan to almost fall down the stairs. Fortunately, Ryan managed to regain his balance after a couple of stumbles.
He looked back at William, pointed at him a couple of times, and continued downstairs. Clearly, this guy had left a mark on him.
A male student who had witnessed everything at the stairway said to William after Ryan left, "Man, you are really unlucky. You got noticed by Ryan, you better transfer schools."
"Huh? I didn't do anything?" William looked a bit confused. He hadn't done anything, yet the young man from before held a grudge against him?
The student shook his head, "It's not about whether you did anything, but whether he wants to do something to you."
William asked, "You said that guy's name is Ryan?"
"You're kidding! You don't recognize Ryan? Are you new?" The student's eyes widened. "You just arrived and got targeted by him, you must be very unlucky!"
The student said regretfully, "All I can say is, you're done for! You better get out of here before he comes back. Don't bother studying anymore, you won't be able to." His eyes were full of sympathy for William and he wondered how unfortunate this guy must be to offend Ryan right after arriving. There was no way he could survive in this environment now.
William asked with a smile, "What is the relationship between this Ryan and Lila?"
The student said, "Lila is his sister! You're not going to tell me you know Lila Carter, are you?"
William nodded and said, "Yes, I just asked Lila to go shopping for me."
"..." The boy was stunned for a good three seconds. When he looked at William again, it was as if he was looking at a mentally challenged person.
"Lila Carter shopping for you? Brother, how drunk are you on a few peanuts? I'm not going to chat with you anymore, good luck to you." After saying this, the boy continued his journey upstairs, wanting to have as little connection as possible with someone as ill-fated as William.
William had also inquired that room 306 was on the third floor, so he slowly made his way up.
"Holy crap! What are you following me for?" The boy had already reached the entrance of room 306, and then he discovered that William was actually following him.
This was insane!
What if Ryan misunderstood and thought he was involved with this guy, wouldn't he be in trouble as well?
"This is room 306?" William looked up at the room number.
"Are you blind? Get out of here now! Blind, foolish, and unlucky - every extra minute you stay at school adds to your danger." The boy finished speaking and went into the dorm, ready to close the door.
But William stuck his foot in the door.
"I'm living here." William gave the boy a friendly smile.
Every time he woke up, he quickly adapted to his new identity. Now he was a student, and the boy in front of him was his roommate.
"Holy shit!" The boy's eyes were about to bulge out, "What a coincidence!"
William laughed, "It is indeed a coincidence."
The boy still didn't seem to want to open the door. His face was full of bitterness, "Bro, don't mess with me, okay? I beg you, change your dorm, don't drag us down with you!"
"Don't worry, it's all good." William said, "Maybe Ryan has gone to shop for me?"
"Heh! Hahaha! Dude, you're quite funny. You didn't really just come out of a mental institution, did you?" The boy laughed blankly, he was at a total loss.
Ryan shopping for him?
Just how big was this guy's imagination?
William asked, "What place is that?"
"Came out of a mental hospital, right? Damn it, you really are sick!" The boy couldn't help shouting inside the dorm, "Wake up everyone, we have a lunatic in our dorm."
The standard for a dorm room is four people. In addition to this boy, there were two other people living in room 306. At this moment, they were still sleeping, but they were abruptly awakened by the shouting.
