The conversation was filled with sarcasm.
Jack glanced coldly at them but didn't say anything.
In the evening, a burly man from Tronda named Isaac arrived at the dorm. He greeted everyone in the dorm warmly.
Although Jack resented Joshua and Ronnie, he still greeted Isaac politely.
Isaac then suggested having a gathering. Since it was their first gathering, no one objected to the idea even though they didn't get along.
The five of them chose a small, elegant restaurant for their gathering. Isaac generously offered to pay and ordered several boxes of beer and bottles of liquor. They planned to drink heartily and not stop until they were drunk.
Isaac's personality was straightforward, and he didn't notice the subtle tension between Jack and the others. After a few rounds of drinks, the conversation turned to beautiful women, and the atmosphere became lively.
Isaac proudly shared that their class had an equal number of girls and boys, with a total of 18 people, which excited everyone. Samuel enthusiastically mentioned that he had seen a remarkably graceful girl when he first arrived at university, and she seemed to be studying broadcasting.
Ronnie disdainfully glanced at Samuel, then exaggeratedly described a beautiful girl he had met—Phoebe.
He claimed that Phoebe was a new student from the School of Finance and incredibly beautiful. Her appearance at the university entrance caused a stir, with many boys rushing to help her carry her luggage, nearly causing a conflict.
Ronnie tried to make his description more vivid, hoping the others would feel the charm of Phoebe.
Joshua expressed doubt, wondering where such a beautiful girl could possibly exist.
Ronnie became anxious and swore he was telling the truth, even mentioning that the senior Michael had also heard about it.
Seeing Ronnie was so certain, Joshua and Isaac grew curious and started asking questions. Even Samuel leaned in to listen.
Jack did not say anything, but his heart was in turmoil.
Phoebe had told Jack that she would apply to Alnewgo University.
