Zhang Ze turned his head shakily and looked towards the door.

When he saw the faces of the two people outside the door, his heart jumped into his throat.

However, Zhang Ze reacted quickly, hurriedly picking up the wine glass on the table and walking towards Le Enjing with a big smile:

"Big sister, when did you arrive? You didn't even inform your little brother in advance, so we didn't prepare anything for you."

Le Enjing looked at Zhang Ze with amusement and took the wine glass: "When did you come in? Of course, it was when you, Mr. Zhang, were giving me your objective evaluation."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ze's heart sank completely, and his face contorted in pain.

"Big sister, I was just talking nonsense while I was drunk, please don't take it seriously."

Zhang Ze hurriedly explained, but Le Enjing waved her hand dismissively:

“How can that be nonsense? I think what Mr. Zhang said makes perfect sense, so I’ve decided that from today onwards, our branch will be under your full responsibility.”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhang's worried expression was almost overflowing: "Sister, stop joking, I really can't do without you."

The Dragon Kingdom branch has never obtained legal status, making its operation extremely difficult and fraught with challenges.

If Yue Enjing also quits now, and there's no superhuman to oversee things, Zhang Ze really thinks the business will go bankrupt sooner or later.

"I'm not kidding you. Starting today, I'm going to take Jiang Xiaoru on her training. From now on, you can handle the matters under the Dragon Kingdom's jurisdiction if you can, but don't come to me if you can't."

Le Enjing waved her hand.

"Big sister is really going to collapse." Zhang Ze said to Le Enjing with a worried look on his face and an almost pleading tone.

"Then let it collapse," Le Enjing said nonchalantly, as if she were talking about something trivial.

Zhang Ze listened to Le Enjing's words and remained speechless for a long time.

The people of the Freedom Tavern are naturally carefree, but to abandon even their own base of operations—isn't that a bit too carefree...?

Looking at Zhang Ze, who was in a daze, Le Enjing said impatiently, "Alright, I'm not going to waste my breath on you anymore. It's decided."

"But... what if those two blame us...?"

"Let them blame us, we'll just send you back to explain." Hearing Le Enjing's words, Zhang Ze almost cried...

"Alright, I'm not playing with you anymore. I've already spoken to those two old men. Right now, nurturing Jiang Xiaoru is more important than anything else. As for the branch, you can do whatever you want with it."

Then, Le Enjing took Le Wanyi's hand and walked towards Ye Ran, placing her hand in Ye Ran's hand in a natural and open manner.

Then, without saying a word, he pulled Jiang Xiaoru behind him:

"One person for one person is just right. Alright, I'm going to take Jiang Xiaoru with me to cultivate. You guys can go wherever you want."

With that knowing look, Le Enjing pulled Jiang Xiaoru and Zhang Ze out of the private room.

Ye Ran and Le Wanyi were left alone in the room... and Wang Xiaoman was watching the drama unfold on the side.

The three of them looked at each other.

After a moment of silence, Wang Xiaoman very tactfully covered her stomach.

"Is there something wrong with this melon...? Why does it hurt so much... Ouch!" she said, clutching her stomach, and quickly left the room.

At this moment, the three people became two, and the atmosphere began to become strange.

Ye Ran stared speechlessly at this miraculous mass disappearance technique.

What is all this nonsense...?

"Ye Ran," Le Wanyi suddenly spoke.

Ye Ran, who was about to leave, was suddenly stopped by Le Wanyi.

Ye Ran turned around at the sound: "What's wrong, Director Le?"

At this moment, the usually aloof Le Wanyi became somewhat awkward: "I'm sorry for what I said about you in your class before."

Upon hearing Le Wanyi's apology, Ye Ran waved his hand dismissively.

"That's normal. As the dean of students, you should focus on the quality of learning. If you don't care about anything else, you'll only harm the students."

“I’m not talking about those things. I’m saying that my attitude towards you wasn’t that good…” Le Wanyi continued.

"Hey, what's wrong? It's been so long, do you still remember?" Ye Ran simply sat down and started eating the fruit platter on the table.

"This melon isn't spoiled... Director Le, would you like some?"

Is this atmosphere meant for you to just sit around and watch the drama unfold?

Le Wanyi frowned slightly, somewhat annoyed that Ye Ran was so clueless about romance.

Seeing that Yue Wanyi remained unmoved, Ye Ran assumed that Yue Wanyi was still struggling with her decision, so he spoke up:

"Director Le, if you really feel bad about it, just give me a higher score in the tutor's comments during the final exam."

Ye Ran hadn't forgotten the system's task.

After all, to get first place in the whole grade,

Although the tutor's comments are not the most important part and have a negligible impact,

But every penny we can scrape together is a penny earned.

Hearing Ye Ran discussing work, Le Wanyi became serious, and her whole demeanor became much more capable:

“That’s natural, I would have done it even if you hadn’t said anything.”

After this night's experience, Le Wanyi's perception of Ye Ran has undergone a complete transformation.

Based on Ye Ran's performance, he absolutely deserves the title of an excellent mentor.

"That's good!" Ye Ran nodded in satisfaction.

When the topic turned to work, Le Wanyi became less hesitant than before and began to analyze things seriously:

"Ye Ran, you are indeed a rare and excellent teacher, both in terms of teaching ability and your responsible attitude towards students. Therefore, I will explain the matter of elimination in the final assessment to the principal in detail and try to get you out of this final assessment."
