Seeing that he was really thinking seriously, Tashiro suddenly smiled, seemingly at Xue Huzi, "You really dare to think big, how could you not graduate?"
Yue Lanxing sensed the sarcasm in his tone and brushed it off, saying, "Maybe he'll invite a tutor to our home for extra lessons."
"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door. The three of them looked towards the door at the same time. Yue Lanxing got up first to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw the young lady outside, with Cui Bai standing next to her.
"Young Miss..." Yue Lanxing had just finished speaking when she heard the young lady say, "Who has time to escort Cui Bai? He needs to go back to Baicai Hall to get some things." After saying that, she looked at Yue Lanxing.
Yue Lanxing's heart skipped a beat when she looked at him. He didn't want to see Cui Bai off, so he immediately turned back to look at Tian Dai and said, "Tian Dai, you go see him off." He then opened the door completely.
“Okay, I’ll go.” Tian Dai didn’t hesitate. He just nudged Yue Lanxing’s arm with his elbow as he passed by, as if to say that he would take the blame for Yue Lanxing this time, or as if to tease him for his earlier actions.
Seeing that Tian Dai had come out, Xu Zhaoyue made way for him at the door. "His name is Tian Dai. He's my bodyguard. Let him go with you. You can just put the expenses on the tab. I'll have someone settle the bill later."
"Okay, let's go then, let's hurry." Cui Bai was quite anxious. He already had an idea, but he couldn't finish the experiment because of the lack of materials, which made him very upset.
Cui Bai and Tian Dai left, and Xu Zhaoyue walked forward to return to her office. Yue Lanxing watched the young lady's back, and just as she was about to follow, she realized she had nothing to say, so she stood there watching the young lady's retreating figure.
Only after the young lady walked into the office did he shift his gaze and turn to look inside. Xue Huzi was watching him from behind, his eyes full of wisdom.
"Your behavior just now, you wouldn't be, huh?" Xue Huzi was overjoyed. He didn't expect to be able to get such a close look at Yue Ge's gossip. Yue Lanxing was about to explain when Xue Huzi waved his hand and interrupted him, "No need to explain, it's normal to like Miss Yue."
After revealing Yue Lanxing's secret, Xue Huzi sat down in his chair and took a sip of water, feeling quite pleased with himself.
Seeing his smug look, Yue Lanxing was at a loss, feeling both embarrassed that her feelings had been exposed and unable to control her questions. In the end, she returned to her seat and asked, "It's normal to like the young lady? Who else likes her?"
"Ah? Hey, it makes sense. Miss Xu is so beautiful, she's the eldest daughter of the Xu family, she can do experiments, and she's even been abroad. How could she not be popular?" Xue Huzi stretched out his hand and listed Xu Zhaoyue's merits one by one.
Yue Lanxing's gaze towards Xue Huzi was starting to feel uneasy. "And you too?"
"Ahem, let me speak first. When I said I liked her, I didn't mean I had to marry her. When I first met her, I thought she was so beautiful and gentle, so I understand how you feel. But given our social status, it's best not to have any unrealistic fantasies."
Xue Huzi's words made sense, and Yue Lanxing knew that this was the truth, but he still couldn't stop feeling heartbroken. What's more, he didn't think that what stood between him and the young lady was their social status, but rather his illness, which made him even more desperate.
Yue Lanxing quickly composed herself and continued, following Xue Huzi's words, "You're right, what are our identities, and what is the young lady's status?"
"Who told us we didn't go to school? We're all clueless. Look at Wang Tianding, she's different. She couldn't have gone to school, but the Xu family sponsored her, and now she's doing very well in the Second Department."
As Xue Huzi was talking, he suddenly remembered that although Yue Ge, like him, hadn't finished school, Yue Ge's English was self-taught. "Hey, Yue Ge, you managed to learn it all by yourself..."
"I suddenly remembered that there's still the matter of renting a house. You go to your shift, I'm going out for a bit." Yue Lanxing only remembered that she hadn't gone to Fang Erge's office to find him after Xue Huzi mentioned Wang Tianding.
Xue Huzi watched Yue Ge's figure disappear quickly from sight, stood up, straightened his clothes, and then went to stand guard outside the young lady's office.
When Yue Lanxing arrived at the office, he was warmly received because there were two men inside who had been drinking with him earlier; one was tall and the other was a bit fat.
The tall guy spotted Yue Lanxing first and pulled the fat guy over. "I told you, Brother Yue, we had to come over. We had such a great time drinking the other day. When are you free, let's have another drink together?"
"Hey, I was just saying you'd need a few days to sober up after drinking. You drank quite a bit that day, and you even managed to get us a hotel. You've got a really good capacity for alcohol," the fat man said.
“It was all thanks to the restaurant staff. We’ll have plenty of opportunities to drink later. I came here today because of what I mentioned the other day—to see if there are any reliable people here who can help me.” Yue Lanxing shook hands with the two of them.
"Of course there is. I've already arranged for someone to look at houses for you in advance. Just tell him what you need, and we'll take you there now," the tall man suggested.
He put his arm around Yue Lanxing's shoulder and started to walk out. Yue Lanxing was forced to bend down to cooperate with his movement, and the fat man also walked to his other side.
Yue Lanxing had no reason to refuse, so he followed his two brothers to a restaurant. "What's this? Aren't we supposed to be looking for a real estate agent?" Yue Lanxing immediately sensed something was wrong.
"That broker lives right next to the restaurant. You two go in and order first, I'll go call him out." The tall man pushed him and the fat man forward so they could go in first, while he went to the side.
Seeing this, the fat man invited Yue Lanxing inside. Since Yue Lanxing was already there, she naturally agreed. The fat man led Yue Lanxing into the private room with ease.
