"Stop following me. If you follow me to the entrance like you did last time, I'm reporting you to the guards," Ivy warned him.
The boy was stunned for a moment as he did not expect Ivy to be so cold.
"Let's talk here, then!" The boy adjusted his glasses. "Are you mad at me for not replying to your message? It was the first time I encountered this sort of situation, so I didn't know what to say. I've thought things through, and I want to talk to you in person."
"Can you stop acting like we are really close? I don't want to be your friend."
The boy seemed to have a hard time accepting what she said and mumbled to himself, "Looks like you are really mad at me for not replying. I mean to tell you that we can get together first, and we can see what we can do about your family's debt later on in the future..."
What he was saying was that he wanted to ignore the debt her family was in as they were only going to be in a short-term relationship. After all, they were still students, and it was too early for them to think of marriage.
"If you agree to be my girlfriend, I can pay for your daily expenses."
Provoked by his words, Ivy roared, "Another word and I will call the school to inform them that you are harassing me!"
The boy was instantly rendered speechless as Ivy had made herself clear.
She was not interested in him.
He realized that she might have other pursuers with better qualities, or she would not have rejected him.
It would cost three to four hundred dollars to live on the campus, and he could give her up to six hundred dollars.
