Chapter 3554: Chapter 3556

William paused for a moment, then let out a long breath. He realized that Roger’s appearance had thrown him off balance. Was he feeling uneasy because of him?

“William, were you angry just now?” Jasper asked.

“No,” he replied, raising his hand to gently stroke her forehead. “I’m just worried about you. We don’t know much about Roger, so you should be careful while being friends with him.”

“Okay, I understand,” Jasper replied.

“Alright then, you should go inside and rest well,” William said.

Jasper waved at him and turned to walk towards the door of the girls’ dormitory.

After taking a few steps, she seemed to have thought of something and turned back to him. “William, even if you can’t play the piano, or even if one day you stop playing, you will still be my most important friend. I like you, not because of your piano!”

After saying this, she turned around and walked back towards the dormitory.

Watching her back, William’s hand hanging by his side tightened slightly.

She didn’t know that he didn’t just want to be her most important friend. When will she understand his feelings?

She knew that he didn’t just want to be her best friend. When will she finally understand his feelings?

But he will patiently wait for her to realize what love is, and then he will tell her how much he loves her!

“Jasper, are you going to the mixer?” Meave, Jasper’s roommate, asked him. The other people in the room were also looking at Jasper.

“Mixer?” Jasper blinked, “Is it the kind where you look for a boyfriend?”

“It’s supposed to be only for singles, but some people actually bring their boyfriends or girlfriends along.

It’s just a way for everyone to hang out together and have some fun. The person organizing it is also from our school and posted about it on the school forum, so it’s a good opportunity to meet new people,” explained Meave. “The three of us are planning to go, what about you, Jasper? Will you come too?”

Horea and Nina, the other two people in the dorm, chimed in, “Yeah, Jasper, come with us! It’ll be a fun group activity for our dorm.”

“Yeah, it’s just a casual get-together, not like we have to go there to find a date or anything,” added Nina.

Jasper thought about it and realized it might be a good chance to socialize and make new friends in college. Plus, she had never been to a mixer before.

“Okay, I’ll come!” Jasper agreed.

“Great!” the other three laughed. After all, if Jasper was also going to participate, this gathering would be very lively.

But when William found out that Jasper was going to attend the gathering, his face immediately changed. “You’re going to the gathering?”

“Yeah, I’ve never been to one before. I don’t know if it’s like in TV shows or comics, but the people in our dormitory said it’s just for fun, everyone gets together and plays around with a name for it,” Jasper said.

William pursed his lips slightly. “But some people go there to find boyfriends or girlfriends. What if they think you’re one of them?”

“Then I’ll just refuse,” Jasper said. “I won’t like them anyway, so of course I’ll refuse.”

“What if you like it?”

“Huh?” She blinked her eyes, “If I like it, then I should accept it.”

His heart sank. Her answer without any hesitation meant that she didn’t have anyone she liked at the moment.

Similarly, he didn’t either!

She only liked him as a friend, not as someone she could date.
