Felicia picked up the hat that had fallen on the ground and handed it back to Carmen. She said in a gentle voice, "It's windy on the rooftop. You shouldn't come up here next time."
"It's none of your business." Carmen took the hat and turned to leave.
Felicia wanted to say something more, but Carmen glared at her and coldly warned, "You'd better stay away from me, or you'll regret it."
Her tone was fierce and threatening, leaving no room for approach.
Felicia could only smile helplessly.
Just then, the campus intercom crackled to life, announcing that all freshmen were to gather at the field for an urgent meeting regarding an important announcement.
What was this about?
Felicia frowned, speculating that it might be some event like a freshmen welcome party or a celebration.
However, when she arrived at the field and looked up, she saw Arnold standing next to the college director. An uneasy feeling welled up in Felicia.
On the stage, Blake cleared his throat and held the microphone. "I have good news to announce—Mr. Lawson has generously sponsored one million for our college to cover the costs of this year's freshmen training!
"So, in addition to the freshmen training, we'll also have a voluntary rural teaching and donation activity!
"Coincidentally, this year marks the centennial anniversary of our college, so the college will also allocate another one million to purchase books, stationery, and other supplies to donate to schools in the impoverished areas we'll be serving!
"This training will last for half a month, and of course, the chosen areas for teaching are very poor and backward, so you all need to be mentally prepared!
"So, are you guys interested in participating?"
As Blake announced the news, gasps filled the crowd. The moment he asked the question, the field erupted in cheers!
