For Zhou Zikun, since he had already decided that night on the beach to not provoke Jiang Feng anymore and repair their relationship, now was a great opportunity.
He didn't bla his lackeys for being blind. In fact, if it weren't for that incident, he would never have thought he would one day compromise with a lowly security guard!
But the cruelty of reality, the bloody lesson learned, finally made him heed his father's advice and show weakness to Jiang Feng!
Even if it ant giving up on Chu Feifei, he accepted it!
At this mont, Zhang Qinyao looked at Zhou Zikun with complete shock. Of everyone, she found his attitude the hardest to accept!
After Zhou Zikun blocked her, she realized he might be afraid of Jiang Feng, but she never expected him to be so scared that he'd completely abandon his dignity!
She glanced at Jiang Feng with a complex expression. Now that even Zhou Zikun had backed down, did she still have a chance to vent the anger in her heart?
The entire class was also in shock after witnessing Zhou Zikun's attitude!
No one dared to make sarcastic comnts anymore. The so-called "auditor" was actually soone of significant background, even Zhou Zikun acknowledged him. What about them?
As for the three girls—Nangong Qingcheng, Chu Feifei, and Liu Shiyuan—they kept their beautiful eyes on Jiang Feng, then looked at the already departed Zhou Zikun. Chu Feifei furrowed her brows and murmured, "What's his ga?"
Jiang Feng, on the other hand, maintained a calm deanor, unfazed from start to finish.
The small commotion passed for now, and soon the lecturer entered the room to start the first advanced mathematics class.
To Jiang Feng, this class was pure torture, sounding like gibberish. Seeing Nangong Qingcheng, Chu Feifei, and Liu Shiyuan taking notes diligently, he did not disturb them.
Whenever he had nothing to do, he sensed two pairs of eyes constantly fixed on him. Frowning, he turned to see Zhang Qinyao quickly looking away, feigning innocence.
At that mont, Zhang Qinyao's heart raced uncontrollably. She didn't know why, but being glanced at by Jiang Feng made her feel like a thief caught in the act—shaful and awkward, her delicate face flushing and heating uncontrollably.
A security guard not even worthy of her attention now made her heart flutter nervously. Zhang Qinyao felt it was humiliating just thinking about it!
Jiang Feng cast a final glance at Zhang Qinyao and withdrew his gaze.
He truly had no good feelings for this girl. Yesterday she almost brought harm to Nangong Qingcheng and Liu Shiyuan, yet today she dressed so flamboyantly and attractively as if nothing happened, even wearing heels unsuited for her age, making her appear more ostentatious. No wonder she didn't fit in with the class.
...
Finally, the bell rang for the end of class. Jiang Feng endured it till the end. Before he could step out for so air, the instructor walked in during the break to announce a completely unexpected piece of news: The school would have an exchange event with the Finance University next week, sending student representatives to North City University of Finance and Economics. The main nas of the student representatives had already been decided, including Nangong Qingcheng, Chu Feifei, Liu Shiyuan, and Zhang Qinyao!
The announcent caused quite a stir in the classroom!
If it was an exchange event, why weren't the student representatives elected by popular vote?
And for such a large event, shouldn't there have been prior notice and preparation? What's the rush to announce it for next week?
"What's going on? The sester just started, what is there to exchange?" Nangong Qingcheng and the other two girls also found it unbelievable, Chu Feifei wondered aloud.
The instructor seed to have heard Chu Feifei's question and smiled wryly, "Please quiet down, everyone. I know you have questions, but to be honest, I've just received notice myself and don't know the specifics. The exchange event is advocated by Vice Dean Han. Finance University also sent representatives from their Business School, possibly to deepen mutual communication and interaction."
"Vice Dean Han?" Jiang Feng frowned upon hearing this title, then asked Nangong Qingcheng and the other two girls, "Do you know who Vice Dean Han is?"
"We don't know him personally, but I've heard Vice Dean Han is the Second Master of the Han Family, Han Shiliang, the sa Han Shiliang we saw before at Fei'er's house," Nangong Qingcheng said.
"Oh." Jiang Feng didn't say more but keenly sensed sothing was off!
He thought for a mont, then said to Nangong Qingcheng and Chu Feifei, "If you have no choice but to attend, I'll go with you."
Just as he finished speaking, the instructor approached and said to Nangong Qingcheng, "Qingcheng, you and Zhang Qinyao will be in charge of leading the group. As class president and deputy secretary of the youth league, you'll be responsible for this exchange event. I'll send the list of other participating students to your phones shortly."
"Alright, Teacher Ji!" Nangong Qingcheng stood up begrudgingly and nodded, then gave Jiang Feng a helpless smile: It seed like they really had no choice but to go...
Jiang Feng felt even more that this was a conspiracy. Could the Han Family dare to stir up trouble here?
At that mont, Jiang Feng's phone rang, and he saw it was Heizi calling.
Jiang Feng answered in front of Nangong Qingcheng and the two other girls, "Heizi, what's wrong?"
"Bro, where are you? Get to the company quickly! Sothing's happened!" Heizi anxiously said from the other end, "The authorities found a large amount of contraband in our warehouse; they said it violates so food safety laws and want to shut down the warehouse, suspend the company operations, and take Supervisor Bai away!"
"What did you say?" Jiang Feng exclaid in shock!
"It's true, you better co quickly! I don't have the contact info for Manager Nangong and the others; if you do, let them know!" Heizi, unaware of Jiang Feng's status as an auditor, added.
Jiang Feng hung up the phone, a dark cloud over his face.
These sudden incidents were happening too quickly, and he increasingly sensed there was sothing big behind it—a massive conspiracy!
"Jiang Feng, what's going on with the company? What's happening with Sister Zhiqing?" Nangong Qingcheng and the other two girls only heard bits and pieces over the phone and asked imdiately.
For her, the company was her hard work, and Bai Zhiqing was a founding mber who started with her. Whenever she wasn't around, Bai Zhiqing was managing the company—it was her right-hand woman. Now that the company was in trouble, and Bai Zhiqing was also affected, how could she remain calm?
"You guys attend the class first; I'll go check it out!" Jiang Feng stood up and said.
"I'll go back with you!" Nangong Qingcheng stood up unhesitatingly.
"Uncle, I'm coming too!" Chu Feifei stood up, followed by Liu Shiyuan.
Indeed, at such a ti, who would be in the mood for class? Especially Nangong Qingcheng, who wished she could grow wings and fly back to the company!
Jiang Feng thought for a mont, "Alright, let's all go back and see!"
Nangong Qingcheng approached Zhang Qinyao, briefed her on the instructor's remarks, and said, "Qinyao, the instructor will send the list for the exchange event shortly. I don't have ti to organize it with the other students, so it's up to you."
"Qingcheng, is the company in trouble? Should I co along to see?" Zhang Qinyao stood up and asked.
"No need, we'll go first and let you know if there's anything," Nangong Qingcheng tactfully declined, then turned to leave with Jiang Feng and the other two.
Watching their departing figures, Zhang Qinyao felt a deep regret in her heart: Once upon a ti, she could blend into that small circle, but now she'd been distanced to an outsider!
But she had brought it all upon herself; no one else was to bla.
"I wonder if Jiang Feng can turn the tide this ti? I really wish I could go and see..." Such a thought inexplicably popped into her mind, and Zhang Qinyao smiled bitterly, shaking her head as she sat down alone, staring out the window in a daze!
