After the first draft was ready, Elise spent a few days finalizing it. When the final
draft was finally completed, it was already the end of the month. Since it was
about time for the new semester to commence, Elise ended her job at the studio.
Alexander stopped his car at the studio’s entrance. As soon as Elise came out, he
opened the car door, got out of the car, and took over the box which she was
holding. “Is this everything?” Elise answered, “Yeah. There’s nothing much. I just
took some drafts which I usually design.” Hearing that, Alexander put the box into
the trunk and said, “Get in.”
Elise opened the door and got into the car, and not long after, the car started moving slowly. “I’ve asked
Cameron to book the flight tickets. You and Danny can go together by then.” Elise hummed in
response, “Okay.” “The flight is tomorrow morning.” “Alright.” Alexander turned his head to look at Elise
as he still wanted to say something, but he ended up saying nothing. On the next day, Danny was
already at the departure hall waiting for Elise when the latter arrived. Upon seeing her arrival, Danny
quickly waved his hand. “Over here, Boss!” Elise walked over to Danny while Cameron, who was
following behind her, said, “Miss Sinclair, allow me to check in your luggage for you.”
“Thank you.” “It’s my pleasure.” With that, Cameron left with Elise’s passport and luggage to check in
her bag. Later, he came back with the boarding passes in his hand. “Young Master Alexander, this is
Miss Sinclair’s boarding pass.” After Alexander took it over, Cameron quickly passed him another
boarding pass and deliberately lowered his voice. “And this is yours, Young Master Alexander. You are
on the same flight as Miss Sinclair, but she’s currently still not aware that you’re heading to Tissote
too.” Alexander said, “You can give it to me first. Remember to keep it a secret.” “Yes, sir.” With that,
Alexander gave the boarding pass to Elise. “This is your boarding pass. You can start boarding in half
an hour.”
Elise glanced at the boarding pass and couldn’t help feeling emotional. Then, she lifted her eyes to look
at Alexander and said, “Please take good care of yourself. I’ll be back once the school holiday starts.”
With his eyes narrowed, Alexander merely hummed in response and did not say anything else. For
some reason, Elise felt that Alexander was behaving rather weird today, but she couldn’t tell exactly in
what ways. Just then, Danny blurted, “Don’t worry, Alex. Boss and I are in the same school, so I’ll
definitely take good care of her.” “Alright, thank you.”
“No problem.” Soon, it was time to board the plane. Alexander stood at the security checkpoint and
watched Elise and Danny board the plane. It was only after they had left that he and Cameron boarded
the plane via another route. The plane soon took off. Being three thousand feet above the ground, Elise
couldn’t help but feel depressed as they would not be able to meet in several months after this
goodbye. “Excuse me, miss. Is this seat taken?” Elise was stunned when she heard the familiar voice.
She quickly turned her head and was shocked upon seeing the familiar face. “W-Why are you here?”
Alexander smiled gently and sat down. “I’m here to see my girlfriend. She’s going to school alone and
I’m worried about her, so I plan to keep her accompanied.” Elise smiled. “Does she know that you’re so
clingy?” “She might not have known before this, but now she does.” Elise naturally held Alexander’s
arm and said, “Why didn’t you tell me that you’re going to Tissote too? Even until just now, I was
thinking about how I am going to pull through a long-distance relationship for several months.”
Alexander leaned close to Elise and kissed her cheek while she was not paying attention. “Well, I hope
it’s not too late to tell you now.” Looking into each other’s eyes, the couple smiled.
With Alexander’s accompaniment, the two-hour-long flight was not too boring. Meanwhile, Danny only
realized Alexander’s existence after the plane touched down. Seeing the couple’s lovey-dovey
interaction, he actually felt like being in a relationship too all of a sudden. Since Cameron had already
arranged for transportation, after exiting the airport, the group got into the car and headed directly to
Tissote University. The annual lively orientation event was held at the entrance of Tissote University. All
the seniors gathered at the gate to welcome the new students from all around the country.
A sense of reverence arose in Elise when she saw the title of the university at its entrance. “We’ll go
register at the school first and come back out after the enrolment procedure is completed.” As soon as
Elise finished saying that, Alexander passed a mask to her. “Wear it.” Elise was confused while Danny
explained to her from the side. “Alex is worried that you’ll be pestered by the seniors, so it will be more
convenient to have a mask on. Besides, you and H have the exact same face, so it’s easy for the fans
to recognize you. In order to avoid these unnecessary troubles, we can only ask you to bear with it and
put the mask on, Boss.”
After hearing Danny’s explanation, Elise turned to Alexander and said, “What about I put on makeup to
make myself look less pleasant––just like how I did it before?” “That’s not necessary. Wearing a mask
is just fine.” Saying that, Alexander helped Elise to put the mask on which instantly covered more than
half of her face. “Looking good!” Neither did Elise have any opinion because after all, she, too, did not
want to deal with unnecessary trouble. After getting out of the car, Alexander helped to carry the
luggage as they walked toward Tissote University’s entrance.
“Hi there, are you guys new students for the 21st intake? Which faculty are you from? Please register
here.” Elise quickly answered, “I’m a new student from the Mathematics Faculty. May I know where I
should report myself to?” The senior was surprised to hear that Elise was from the Mathematics
Faculty. After all, the majority of the students in that faculty were male, but today they actually had such
an adorable girl as a new member. Although one couldn’t see her full appearance with her mask on, it
wasn’t hard to tell that she was a beautiful girl from her sweet voice. “Head to your right and you may
register with the Mathematics Faculty at Block B. If you don’t know the way, I can show you.”
“Thanks then!” “Sure. Please come with me!” With that, Elise and the others followed the senior to
Block B. After paying the tuition fee, Elise registered and obtained the hostel key. It was only then did
Alexander send her back to the hostel. The hostel in the university was a shared space, so it was more
noisy and crowded. Alexander was not too pleased with the situation, so he said, “Why don’t you stay
outside of campus? It’ll be more convenient.” However, Elise replied, “There’s no need. I can stay
outside during the weekends or during the school holidays; I’ll just stay on campus on normal days.
Have you forgotten that my godfather has prepared a house for me?” “But the condition in this hostel is
quite terrible.” “Don’t worry! Since the others are able to live here, I can as well.” While saying that,
Elise had already started making the bed herself. In fact, Tissote University was one of the top
universities in the country, and its hostel was already much better than the other ordinary universities.
However, Alexander still thought the environment was less desirable. The room that Elise was staying
in was a dorm for two, and her roommate had not arrived yet.
And so, Alexander walked up to help Elise unpack. As they were done unpacking, Elise carried her bag
and said, “Let’s go and have a meal together outside!” When the two came out of the female dorm,
they realized that the people around them gradually focused their gazes on Alexander. There were
even two girls who directly walked up to him and asked, “Hey there, are you a new student for the 21st
intake too? Can I have your phone number?”
Alexander answered with a straight face, “I’m sorry. My girlfriend is rather strict, so I don’t bring my
phone with me when I’m out.” The female students pulled a long face at once upon hearing that
Alexander was already taken. After that, they walked away in depression. Seeing this, Elise couldn’t
help smacking Alexander. “You said that people will easily recognize me with my face. Turns out, your
face attracted even more attention! Why don’t you wear a mask too next time?”
