"Hey, elder brother Xie, did you start playing Samsara Online?" -Yue Kai suddenly brought the topic of conversation to the most popular game of the moment, and probably of the history.

Hu Chen looked at Yue Kai as if he was an idiot and complained:

"Who isn't playing Samsara Online? Unless it's one of those monks who live in temples, I don't think anyone wants to miss it."

Xiao Luo interrupted and said with a serious face:

"You're wrong, old Hu. Probably the monks don't want to be left out of Samsara Online either."

Xie Feng shook his head helplessly at the buffoonery of these three. He returned to Yue Kai's initial question and answered:

"Of course, I play Samsara Online. Just like you three, I assume."

Yue Kai nodded and said as if it were a matter of course:

"From the moment the main server started until 40 minutes ago I was raising my level non-stop. I'm currently level 4, less than halfway to level 5."

Xiao Luo complained slightly: "Damn, how can it be so hard to level up? To go from level 0 to level 1 you need 200 experience points and every damn rabbit only gives you 2 points. The creators of the game want to kill us?"

Hu Chen nodded in agreement with Xiao Luo and continued:

"Xiao Luo and I were sent by coincidence to the Beginner's Village 57928, surprisingly no? Currently, we are both level 4 with just under half a bar of a full experience."

Xie Feng nodded his head. Because his three friends and dorm mates didn't bother to rest, his levels went up quickly as well.

Although Xie Feng doesn't usually stay in college dorms, some weekends he spends in the dorm with the guys for drinks and chats, so he knows them pretty well.

Yue Kai suddenly remembered something and asked:

"By the way, what is your name? and what level are you?"

Xie Feng smiled slightly and said: "My name is Sh-..."

Before he could finish speaking, the voice of the teacher echoed in the room: "Everyone, take your seats! The class is starting."

Xie Feng winked at them, indicating that they would continue to talk later, to which the trio also nodded and returned to their seats.

Classes continued from the morning until noon. Because the credits needed for the third-year students are naturally much higher than those needed for the new students, everyone had to make an effort.

In order to have a better chance of getting a good job in the future, everyone had no choice but to do their best. Fortunately, the teachers didn't have to worry too much about students not paying attention to the classes.

This is because the University of Shanghai is one of the top universities in the country, so students who enter generally have excellent grades.

Naturally, some people enter by luck or family background. However, those who were lucky or somehow cheated to pass the entrance exam will be noticed over time; while those who used family connections to get in need not worry about a job, as their paths are practically built.

"Elder brother Xie, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch?"

Xie Feng looked up and saw Yue Kai with his backpack on one shoulder.

He nodded, but then remembered his agreement with Gu Qianxue so he shook his head and responded:

"Before that, I must go to the Communication and Marketing building to look for a person."

Hu Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise and said in a stupefied tone

"Communications Department? why do you have to go there? Doesn't sister-in-law Xie Yao study in the History Department?"

Xie Feng stood up and hung his bag over his shoulder, as he walked to the door he answered: "Anyway, a distant cousin is going to start living with me from today, because of some problems with her eyes she can't see. Being new to Shanghai, I must take care of her."

Hu Chen, Yue Kai, and Xiao Luo looked at each other and quickly followed Xie Feng. They put on a flattering smile and began to praise Xie Feng from head to toe.

How could Xie Feng not know what kind of person these three were? So he warned them in a serious tone:

"You three better not have any dirty thoughts about her. Otherwise, I will really have to beat you up."

Yue Kai asked curiously: "what's wrong? Could it be that you like your cousin or something? No matter how far away she is, she is still your cousin."

The corner of Xie Feng's mouth contracted a couple of times. He stopped answering and went to Gu Qianxue's class room while being followed by the three of them.

After walking for several minutes, the four arrived at the communications building and saw Xie Yao chatting with Gu Qianxue sitting on a bench.

***

Many guys were chatting near the two ladies, trying to get their attention. However, Xie Yao seemed casual, while Gu Qianxue was engrossed in chatting with her new friend.

However, such a thing is understandable, since she was always under her father's watch; being able to chat with someone her age without feeling observed was something new to her.

As Xie Feng's group of four approached, Xie Yao saw them too. She took Gu Qianxue's hand and stood up as she walked towards Xie Feng with a smile.

Yue Kai and the other two first looked at Gu Qianxue and were stunned.

Because Xie Feng had already explained her situation slightly, none of the three found it strange to see her with her eyes closed. However, all three were surprised by the heavenly beauty.

Xie Yao slightly waved her little hand and laughed lightly:

"Hello~?"

Hu Chen coughed and greeted them quickly: "Sister-in-law, you are becoming more and more beautiful."

Yue Kai nodded, he sighed as he shook his head and spoke in a slightly regretful tone:

"What a pity that older brother Xie met you first, otherwise I would certainly have pursued you."

Xiao Chen rolled his eyes and scoffed: "You want to pursue to sister-in-law? Why don't you look at yourself in the mirror? With that look of a woman of yours, you will only receive strange looks from her! Just get a boyfriend now."

Yue Kai's face turned black and he almost cursed out loud, but he held back because of the two beauties. He gritted his teeth and said in a restrained voice:

"Old Xiao...you are really looking for a beating..."

Xie Feng smiled and shook his head without saying anything. He looked at Gu Qianxue and noticed that she was also 'looking' in his direction, so he asked:

"Qianxue, how was your first day as a student at Shanghai University?"

Gu Qianxue smiled gently and did something that left not only Xie Feng but everyone amazed. She approached and took Xie Feng's hand as she answered:

"It was entertaining. For the first time in my life, I felt I was free...however, there is something I don't understand."

Xie Feng quickly came out of her confusion. He knows that Gu Qianxue has the mentality of an innocent girl since she has never seen the world. Therefore, Xie Feng simply spoke casually:

"Oh? tell me what your doubt is."

Gu Qianxue slightly squeezed Xie Feng's right hand and raised her face, as if their eyes met and asked with a face full of curiosity:

"Why do I feel that I am very close to you? I even feel that I am closer to you than to my father and mother. We've met before?"

This is something Gu Qianxue has been wondering since the moment Xie Feng approached her. Although Gu Qianxue was overprotected causing her personality to be pure and innocent, this does not mean that she does not have the capacity to think and reason.

Gu Qianxue knows that it is rare to feel so close to a person she had just met. Therefore, she hoped that the person responsible, Xie Feng, could answer that question.
