Yannan Polytechnic University entrance.

A group of male students stared, dumbfounded, as the BMW's silhouette faded into the distance, a moment of stillness following.

At this very moment, from behind a French sycamore, a small yet incredibly agile figure emerged, carrying a long travel bag.

This was a Caucasian, with azure eyes glinting with unfathomable depth.

His gaze was as placid as a pond, yet as inscrutable as an ancient well.

He was not as tall and sturdy as most Western men.

Standing not even five foot seven, he would be considered of average height even among Asians.

But strangely enough, this ordinary-looking Caucasian.

Appeared as deep and captivating as the night itself.

Elegant strides, a noble air, a leisurely smile.

It was these qualities that gave this petite Caucasian a unique gentlemanly charm.

The Caucasian glanced at the direction where Yang Fei had disappeared, took out his SLR camera, and snapped a photo.

His eyes seemed to light up with tiny flames.

"Magic Shadow, since God intends for us to duel, let's do it," he said.

"I believe, you've been looking forward to this game for a long time."

Having said that, the Caucasian shrugged his shoulders and left the Polytechnic University's entrance.

Li Hengkun drove his BMW, tailing Yang Fei's bicycle.

He followed all the way to the Longyuan Villa District.

Yang Fei and Xiao Xuanya chatted and laughed together, yet their pace was swift.

At several traffic lights, Li Hengkun almost lost them several times.

Gradually, Li Hengkun realized something was off with Yang Fei's direction.

He kept heading southeast, with a very clear purpose.

To Li Hengkun's knowledge, in this area, there was only one residential area - the Longyuan Villa District.

Inside were villas worth tens of millions.

Could it be that this guy on an old bike actually lived there?

Li Hengkun immediately dismissed this ludicrous thought.

From his perspective,

this so-called boyfriend of Xiao Xuanya probably couldn't even afford the villa's maintenance fees.

Not to mention renting a place here was out of the question.

However, the less Li Hengkun believed it, the more reality seemed to prove him wrong.

When Li Hengkun saw with his own eyes Yang Fei and Xiao Xuanya, chatting and laughing as they stopped in front of the gate of a standalone villa,

his eyes nearly popped out.

Damn, the guy on the old bike really lived here.

Li Hengkun's family background was not simple, but he dared only to drive a BMW X3 worth about four to five hundred thousand.

And such villas, easily worth tens of millions, were something he didn't even dare to dream of.

Li Hengkun felt somewhat inferior.

Only no ordinary people could live in such a mansion.

Forget about riding an old bike, even if he used a garbage truck to pick up Xiao Xuanya,

she would probably be more than happy.

Yang Fei glanced at the alley entrance and smiled slightly.

"Director Li followed us here, what do you say, shall we go over and greet him?"

Xiao Xuanya sighed.

"Can't even your 'ultimate shield' keep those persistent admirers at bay?"

She gracefully turned around, walking with the perfect model's gait towards the BMW.

Li Hengkun knew he'd been spotted, his heart suddenly racing.

Even so, Li Hengkun had no intention of avoiding them.

Struck deep, he had lost all confidence in his own charm and decided to just brazen it out.

Xiao Xuanya approached Li Hengkun's car and smiled faintly.

"Director Li, since you're here, why don't you come in and sit for a while?"

Li Hengkun was heartbroken.

"Teacher Xiao, I didn't expect your boyfriend to actually live here."

Xiao Xuanya gave a faint smile and changed the subject.

"Shall we go in and have some tea?"

Li Hengkun instinctively wanted to refuse, but he found himself nodding as if possessed by a ghost.

"That sounds good."

Xiao Xuanya opened the gate, letting Li Hengkun drive his car into the courtyard.

Li Hengkun caught sight of the three luxurious cars in front of the villa and blushed with shame.

He couldn't even lift his head.

On the villa's main building's lawn was a Bentley, a Land Rover, and a Hummer.

These three cars, each more luxurious and imposing than the last.

In front of these three luxury cars, Li Hengkun's BMW X3 seemed like a wronged little wife, utterly aggrieved.

Li Hengkun remembered how he had pretentiously shown off his half-a-million yuan BMW in front of Xiao Xuanya and his face turned hot with embarrassment.

He wished there was a hole in the ground he could just dive into.

In fact, Li Hengkun came from a rather well-off family.

His father was a deputy director in the municipal education bureau, and his mother was a professor at a university.

For most people, such family conditions would be considered extremely privileged.

As a result, Li Hengkun had developed a rather arrogant temperament.

However, at this moment, Li Hengkun finally understood.

What a true wealthy family is, what real rich people are like.

Any one of the luxury cars on the lawn.

Could outclass his little BMW in a second.

And to live in this multimillion Yuan villa, he could probably forget about it for his entire life.

Xiao Xuanya saw Li Hengkun's bewildered look and smiled faintly.

She invited Li Hengkun to the living room for tea without making a sound.

Upon reaching the newly renovated main hall of the villa, Li Hengkun's face turned even redder.

He was so nervous, he didn't even know where to place himself.

Yang Fei found it amusing.

This fellow had eyes only for profit, loved to show off and be pretentious.

He even liked to use money to measure a person's status and worth.

For someone like that, meeting Xiao Xuanya, that "fairy," was nothing short of a disaster.

After this encounter, Li Hengkun would probably want to keep his distance from Xiao Xuanya, right?

This tactic was only useful with a snobbish person like Li Hengkun.

If it were Mad Blade, on the other hand,

even if he were sitting in the Imperial Palace, he definitely wouldn't feel any discomfort.

He'd swear when he felt like swearing, spit when he felt like spitting.

If it were Yang Fei, he would be even more unrestrained in high spirits.

He wouldn't feel anxious or inferior; on the contrary, he'd be even more audacious.

In other words, it was entirely a matter of mindset.

Xiao Xuanya sat opposite Li Hengkun.

Her long legs crossed, she looked captivating and bewitching.

"Director Li, weren't you here to talk about work? Let's discuss it here, shall we?"

Li Hengkun glanced at Yang Fei, who was lazily watching TV not far away, and his expression became extremely humble.

"Actually, Teacher Xiao is doing quite well,"

"I just wanted to ask if you, after your three-month probationary period is over, would like to stay and develop your career at our school? I can be of service in this regard."

Originally, Li Hengkun had intended to use the contract renewal as an opportunity to wield both carrot and stick to curry favor with Xiao Xuanya.

But now, Li Hengkun had completely abandoned that idea.

After all, Xiao Xuanya might not even take the matter of renewing her contract to heart.

Xiao Xuanya smiled lightly, her tone indifferent.

"Then I'll have to trouble Director Li for that, how about I take you out for a meal some other day?"

"No need, no need, you're too polite."

The shift in mindset made Li Hengkun feel almost overwhelmed by Xiao Xuanya's expression of gratitude.
