Lunchtime was almost over, so the busy canteen was slowly turning quiet.

As opposed to all other students who were chatting happily with their friends, a boy with a plain haircut and washed-out clothes was sitting alone in the corner. He caressed his rumbling stomach and was staring at the leftovers on the table.

He waited until almost all the students were gone before he ran to the dining tables and grabbed some leftover bread from the tray. Before anyone knew it, he already shoved it into his mouth.

The students, who were still in the canteen, were flabbergasted when they saw that.

They probably thought that it was ridiculous how a starving student could still exist in the civilized time they lived in.

“F*cking assh*le. It’s the twenty-first century. Why is he still forcing me to play this game?” grumbled the boy sadly as he gobbled the leftovers down.

“Casper? Casper Simpson?”

Just then, a surprised voice with a hint of distaste came at him.

Casper, who was still munching on the leftover bread, turned around to see the woman with heavy makeup on.

“What are you doing?”

“Eating!”

The lady was slightly stunned. A discriminating and disdainful smile crept up on her lips almost immediately after.

“Hah, good thing Kitty is dumping you soon. It’d be so embarrassing otherwise because strangers would assume that everyone in our dorm is a poor sap.”

Boom! A loud explosion went off in Casper’s mind as it turned blank.

He couldn’t believe it. His girlfriend, who once promised to stay by his side even if they had to starve, would actually leave him.

He didn’t really have the time to think about it before he turned around and dashed towards the school’s main entrance.

A brand new BMW pulled up at the entrance, and a couple exited it.

The boy who came out of it was not blessed with aesthetic beauty. In fact, he was rather short and looked a little like an imp. The girl wasn’t an exotic beauty either, but she looked youthful and sweet.

Casper panted when he reached the entrance. Seeing the couple exiting the car together instantly petrified him.
