"Right..."

Zhao Tienan's heart trembled, not knowing how to answer the question of the girl in his arms. In the end, he could only nod.

"Really?"

"Then after we attend the class reunion and come together to find you, you must remain impartial by then."

After saying this, Cao Lei was about to turn and leave, but her steps were unnatural, almost comical, nearly falling to the ground.

Seeing this, Zhao Tienan didn't feel like laughing at all; in fact, he felt a bit distressed.

The girl in front of him had given so much for him, yet she had never received anything in return.

Since she had always been longing for impartiality, with a hint of inferiority, Zhao Tienan must take care of her emotions in the future.

Early the next morning, the bus to the city arrived.

"You two be careful on the road, and if anything happens, make sure to call me immediately."

Zhao Tienan reluctantly waved goodbye as he saw Cao Lei and Xie Xin onto the bus.

"Don't worry, we've studied in the city for several years without any issues."

"Besides, with me around, no one will bully Lei."

Xie Xin flashed a bright smile and then led Cao Lei onto the bus.

Just at that moment, a figure that made Zhao Tienan frown also followed, and it was Xing Zhaolin, who had just challenged Zhao Tienan yesterday!

"Hey, Xing Zhaolin, where are you going?"

"Not staying in the village to take care of your chickens and fish, what's the point of going to the city?"

Xu Dapeng shouted loudly from the side.

"None of your business!"

Xing Zhaolin turned his head, speaking with disdain, as if Xu Dapeng wasn't even worthy of talking to him.

"Ugh, you damn show-off! Isn't it just going to college, having some lousy money in your pocket?"

"Come on, if you're a man, get off the bus and have a one-on-one with me!"

Xu Dapeng also couldn't stand the arrogant Xing Zhaolin and began to curse at him.

"Hmph, fool, it's not the old times; I don't have time to bicker with you!"

Xing Zhaolin glanced over, spoke with utter contempt, but before boarding the bus, he gave Zhao Tienan a provocative look and then sat behind Cao Lei.

It was obvious that this time getting on the bus was no coincidence but a spur-of-the-moment decision.

He clearly intended to take advantage while Zhao Tienan was not beside Cao Lei to steal her away.

"Dapeng, why get so worked up over someone like that? He won't keep up the act for long."

Zhao Tienan put his arm around Xu Dapeng's shoulders, watching the bus start with a broad smile, though his tone was very calm.

"Huh? Nan, aren't you at all angry about that jerk? Didn't you notice the look he gave you just now?"

Xu Dapeng asked in astonishment.

"It's fine. Since he's gone, it's a good opportunity for us. We can keep a close watch on his father while their house is unattended and try to get some explosive information."

Zhao Tienan spoke leisurely, as if everything was already under his control.

Since Xing Zhaolin has made his move, this game must be played to the end, and Xing Zhaolin no longer has the leverage to end it!
