So, a word of praise from her good friend instantly dissipated much of her anger.
Still, she shot the bastard a scornful look. "Really proud of yourself? Proud to be a freeloader?"
"Of course." Han Lie realized her attitude was softening and imdiately seized the opportunity with a mischievous grin. "It’s not like you don’t know I’ve never enjoyed such treatnt before. Now that I have a rare chance, shouldn’t I take the ti to savor it?"
"Humph!" Chen Yanfei snorted delicately, her sound suggesting both acquiescence and understanding.
In other words, she was a reasonable girl. Han Lie had explained, and she had accepted it. Thus, the matter was considered settled.
The main reason for her acceptance was his opening phrase, "It’s not like you don’t know..."
Yes, I know.
Chen Yanfei was not very familiar with Han Lie’s circumstances during high school, but judging from their first encounter, they seed rather grim. Even though he had greeted Pan Shaohang amicably, he was t with cold indifference from the lofty young Pan. Later, they even ca to blows if a single word was out of place...
Was it just because he appeared a bit weak and introverted, and didn’t pay much attention to his appearance? Now, he had grown, transford, and begun to shine as he should, thus gaining so minor privileges. And Han Lie decided to enjoy those small privileges that offered him psychological compensation. Was that so wrong?
Chen Yanfei felt that as long as he didn’t go overboard, it wasn’t wrong. She understood those privileges very well. Ever since she was young, she had always been surrounded by various privileges and would also selectively enjoy them—things like preferential treatnt from teachers, affection from relatives, respect from female classmates, and appropriate care from male classmates... If people are kind to you, why bluntly reject them? A little reciprocity is all it takes!
Chen Yanfei even felt that Han Lie deserved this. His intelligence, maturity, and kindness all warranted respect and adoration.
Her level of thinking was obviously far beyond that of her peers.
But her understanding of Han Lie was clearly far from complete...
In any case, she had let this one slide, and Han Lie had navigated this tricky situation without too much trouble.
Not only had he passed, but he also gained additional benefits.

Well now, have all five hooligans finally taken their positions? Indeed, only a proper battlefield can truly hone a person...
anwhile, on the other side, hearing Han Lie’s "confession," Xi Luting and Yu Yun both took it the wrong way.
Oh my God! How could such an outstanding guy like Han Lie have had such a life before? A lowly nobody? It must all be because of *you*! If it weren’t for you, Han Lie would have beco President Han long ago!
Xi Luting began to let her imagination run wild, but then again, you couldn’t say her imagination was entirely unreasonable...
This was absurd.
As expected, her animosity towards Chen Yanfei deepened.
"Little Chubby Girl, shut up if you can’t speak properly! What’s this about freeloading? It’s my pleasure to treat Han Lie to a al, what does it have to do with you?"
Han Lie shuddered all over, startled.
Then ca the headache.
Great. Xi Luting was done playing the subtle ga with Chen Yanfei; that wasn’t her style.
What was her style? If you can win an argunt, there’s no need for reason; if it cos to blows, try to keep the chatter to a minimum!
Yu Yun’s feigned innocence, Pan Ge’s biting remarks, Chen Yanfei’s veiled insults – she couldn’t play any of those gas. It wasn’t that she wasn’t clever enough; she just didn’t want to bother with those flies. They were too nurous and too much of a waste of ti, so she had gradually developed a straightforward and ruthless habit.
But the problem is... you’ve put ** on the spot! Dammit, where’s my knife?
Han Lie, seething internally, silently chanted the Glazed Prayer Scripture, trying to stabilize his aura and think hard...
What do I do now?!
