The Established Siblings of the Pack

Chapter 361

Seeing how the middle-aged woman pulled faces at them, Kingsley and Elaine felt embarrassed for a moment.

Kingsley said with a wave of his hand, "You've got the wrong idea. We're not a couple."

The middle-aged woman darted a look at the large handful of roses Elaine was holding. She said with a smile, "You guys will be a couple after spending a night at our hotel!"

As Kingsley was too lazy to explain himself, he immediately left while taking Elaine by the hand.

Elaine turned red with embarrassment. Pointing at the campus gate nearby, she said, "Um… You'll reach the gate of the campus after crossing the road. Our dorm isn't far from here. It only takes over 10 minutes to get there on foot."

Knowing that she was trying to ease the awkwardness between them, he went along with her, saying, "Courtney's supposed to be in her dorm room at this hour, right?"

"Yeah, she is." Elaine nodded. "Court usually stays in our dorm room and plays computer games; she rarely goes out except to go to classes. She's a total homebody!"

As they spoke, they came near Block Jasmine, which was a dormitory building for ladies. The building consisted of Hall No. 1 and Hall No. 2, each of which contained six floors. Room 1205, where Courtney and Elaine stayed, was the fifth room on the second floor of Hall No. 1.

As soon as Kingsley and Elaine followed a path to the downstairs of the dormitory building, they suddenly heard a loud Boom! The next instant, spectacular fireworks appeared in the sky, creating a shocking visual impact by filling half of the starry sky!

Kingsley looked up and asked in surprise, "Why is there a fireworks display at your university? Today's not a festival, right?"

"Well… Perhaps it's just a couple celebrating some sort of anniversary…" Elaine pointed at the open ground surrounded by the crowd ahead of them. "There's always this kind of stuff outside the dormitory for the ladies. It's either someone courting one of the girls or a couple celebrating some sort of anniversary."

She and Kingsley moved through the crowd and stepped forward, only to see three convertible sports cars and several eye-catching motorcycles parked downstairs outside the dormitory building. Standing at their center were a dozen fashionably-dressed young men who were smoking while looking up at the fireworks with grins on their faces.

Darting a look at the cars, Kingsley lamented, "Are university students so rich nowadays? To think that they drive cars that are worth millions to the campus!"

Elaine said with a frown, "They might not be students of our university. They could be here to court a lady…"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the last of the fireworks died away in the sky, those gorgeously-dressed young men immediately stepped forward and lit all the candles on the ground with the lighters in their hands. In an instant, a huge heart-shaped candle formation appeared on the ground.

A man dressed in an undershirt and pants nearby whispered with both envy and disdain, "Jeez, lighting candles in a formation is too old-fashioned, isn't it? I thought these rich guys could come up with something new!"

Upon hearing his words, someone immediately retorted, "You don't know a damn thing! These candles are the latest scented candles from Louis Vuitton! Each of these costs nearly 200, which is converted to 1,500 Qustian dollars!"

These words instantly drew many gasps from the surrounding crowd.
