Using his connections to get Bai Feng enrolled, the dean of the office had pulled strings.
Who would’ve thought that despite everything going smoothly, he’d end up with nothing, losing both the prize and his efforts?
“We’ve completed your paperwork. This is your student ID. From now on, you’re a member of Zhubin University!”
Bai Feng was thrilled to receive it, but Qian Jiahang’s face darkened instantly.
Qian Jiahang thought, I worked so hard to get this done for them, and I get nothing? I’m not letting this go.
But to maintain the gentlemanly image he’d crafted in front of Bai Feng, he couldn’t act rashly now.
He forced a smile, watching Xu Fei lead Bai Feng away.
“Didn’t expect the guy you met on the plane to be pretty decent.”
As they walked, Xu Fei said casually, and Bai Feng smiled in response.
“Yeah, I feel lucky to meet a helpful compatriot in a foreign land like this.”
Instead of exposing Qian Jiahang’s hypocrisy, Xu Fei even spoke up for him.
Because Xu Fei suddenly realized this situation worked well for him.
His main goal here was to take down the Kawashima family and reclaim the legacy left by a predecessor on this land.
It would be a dangerous process, requiring significant time.
Xu Fei wasn’t worried about his own safety, but his only concern was Bai Feng.
This wasn’t like back home; Xu Fei was essentially starting from scratch here.
Even a tiger can doze off, so Xu Fei didn’t believe he could protect Bai Feng flawlessly.
Thus, Qian Jiahang’s sudden appearance became valuable.
Since Qian Jiahang was so eager to win Bai Feng’s favor, if Xu Fei continued his baiting plan, Qian Jiahang wouldn’t pose a threat and might even serve as a shield for Bai Feng.
Bai Feng, unaware of this, spent the next few hours more relaxed.
Xu Fei took her around the campus to get familiar with the area, then they explored the surroundings.
By evening, they had their first meal there before heading back to rest.
Back at the apartment, Bai Feng showed her diligence. Though school started the next day, she was already studying course materials in her room that evening.
Xu Fei felt gratified, knowing Bai Feng wasn’t here for fun but genuinely wanted to learn something valuable.
With Bai Feng studying, Xu Fei found himself a bit bored. Just then, he noticed several shadowy figures outside the apartment building.
From their all-black attire, it was clear they were sent by Qian Jiahang to monitor Bai Feng.
Xu Fei decided his baiting plan needed a bit more push, so he retracted his clairvoyant vision and chose to act.
*Knock, knock, knock!*
Xu Fei tapped lightly on Bai Feng’s door. When she opened it, he asked, “It’s a bit warm today. I’m heading out to buy some refreshing drinks. Anything you’d like?”
Bai Feng nodded, but then said, “You’ve been busy all day, Fei Bro. Rest at home. I’ll go buy those things myself.”
