Sixteen years later.

In Fort St. University.

It was a private university which ran neck and neck with Harvard University, which offered nearly 1000 majors. Students were lectured by professors or top leaders in the business field.

Apart from impoverished students who did well in their study, the rest of the students were mainly rich second generation kids.

Including Janet. She had failed all her exams.

It was a splendid, sunny day, and it was the student's graduation day. They were taking photos in their school uniforms.

During this time, a few "wows" were heard coming from the School Building.

Soon, Janet, who was putting on her school uniform, was dragged out of her dorm room by her roommate Shirley.

"Shirley, wait, I haven't put on my uniform yet." Janet, who had a beautiful figure, was wearing a white camisole and dark blue shorts. She was dragged in a rush throughout the campus by Shirley, who had got A in every exam. This scene had drawn many people's attention.

Shirley was breathless. She spluttered her words out, "We... cannot... wait for you... to get... dressed... someone is dying."

Janet looked at Shirley even more confused. What was going on?

Three minutes later...

The School Building was now being surrounded by a big crowd of students in their school uniforms.

A voice shouted, "Janet is coming!"

Then the crowd gave way to Janet.

Shirley took Janet straight to the front of the building and then pointed up.

On the 15-story School Building hung a red banner which read: "Janet, I love you! Will you please marry me?"

The banner was girdled with pink roses which also happened to be Janet's favorite flowers. A man in white casual tops and pants, with yellow hair resembling the straws of a broom, was on the top of the building.

He was holding in his hands a large bouquet of the same pink roses in his left hand, and a megaphone in his right. When he saw Janet, he began shouting: "Janet, I love you! Marry me!"

The crowd hooted and cheered: "Say yes! Say yes!"

Janet covered her ears. She was almost deafened by the noises that came from all around her. She took out her phone and called Bill: "No silly trying, no Billy dying! Get down at once!"

Bill was, however, still shouting with the megaphone: "Janet, I'll jump if you say no to me! Then, you will never forget me!"

Hearing these words, the crowd started screaming hysterically.

"Janet, don't be silly. His grandfather is a general, and his father is a lieutenant general. Say yes to him, now."

Janet, of course, knew Bill's powerful family background. But she treated him only as a friend.

"Bill, get down now! Knock it off, or I won't talk to you for the rest of my life!"

How many times had Bill said "I love you" to Janet? Janet stretched out her left hand and started counting. It was more than 5 times.

"If you don't say yes to me, I swear I will jump!" Bill really meant it this time. Jane had turned him down for a thousand times, and if it wasn't working this time either, then there would be no point to continue living.

"Go ahead, jump! You'd better kill yourself now, or else your grandfather will beat you to death with his walking stick!" Janet gestured him coming down. Bill became more and more timid at the mentioning of his grandfather.

"Just say yes and I'll come down." Bill put the megaphone away and talked to Janet by the phone.

More and more students that were around the building took out their phones and started recording videos of the whole event. Janet rolled her eyes and spoke in the phone, " Bill, your grandfather will know what's going on if he watches these videos. Are you aware that you are being silly and making a fool of yourself?"
