Lu Benwei scratched his head and grinned.

“You saw through me.”

Lu Benwei was defeated by the hunter university students on purpose.

As for why he pretended to be defeated? Firstly, he did not have any deep grudges against the students at Yanjing Hunter University. Secondly, Principal Chu Bowen led him into the treasure trove of Yanjing Hunter University and obtained the most supreme divine treasure among the treasure troves.

In addition, Lu Benwei was afraid that he would defeat an entire school by himself and mess up the hearts of these children. Therefore, when the time was right, he deliberately got defeated.

“It seems like not only Jiangsu and Zhejiang Hunter University, but our school also can’t accommodate a big buddha like you.” Chu Bowen let out a breath of turbid air.

“How could that be? Although my personal strength is the best among the nine great hunter universities, in terms of foundation, it’s still your Yanjing Hunter University,” Lu Benwei said angrily.

Lu Benwei did not try to be humble. Now, his strength could be called the number one person in the nine great hunter universities. If he was any humbler, it would be more or less deliberate.

“Stinky brat, you sure know how to flatter yourself.”

Chu Bowen scolded him with a smile, but suddenly, he froze for a moment and continued, “You’ve already snatched the supreme divine treasure of Yanjing Hunter University. Do you still want to think about other treasures?”

Lu Benwei saw that his intentions had been exposed and stuck out his tongue awkwardly.

Chu Bowen let out a breath and asked, “When are you leaving?”

For a moment, the room was silent.

Outside the window, the snow crushed the branches and fell to the ground with a continuous sound.

Some birds did not mean to be caged. Their feathers were too bright, and one would know that it was a sin to keep them caged.

Lu Benwei was the same.

There was nothing left for Lu Benwei to take care of at Jiangsu and Zhejiang, as well as the other seven hunter universities. Staying in school would not help him much in his future.

Lu Benwei pondered for a moment and said, “Tomorrow.”

“It’s so early.” Chu Bowen heaved a sigh of relief.

“Where do you want to go?”

“I want to go to the three northern provinces,” Lu Benwei replied.

Chu Bowen nodded thoughtfully. “The three northern provinces. Where exactly are they?”

“Hei Province.”

Chu Bowen nodded and returned to his desk. He picked up a pen and dipped it in ink before writing a few lines on a piece of paper.

Chu Bowen’s calligraphy was very beautiful. It was painted with iron and silver hooks, and it was very majestic.

Lu Benwei glanced at it roughly. It was probably a recommendation letter. It seemed to be written to a family leader.

After writing, Chu Bowen put the letter into an envelope and handed it to Lu Benwei.

“You’ve offended the eight great families. It’ll be difficult for you to move an inch in the Dragon City in the future. You’re going to the Hei Province. Go to this university first. Their principal is an old friend of mine and Chen Yuan. Ask him to bring you to the person in my letter. In front of him, the eight great families wouldn’t dare to act rashly.”

After Lu Benwei accepted the recommendation letter, he thanked him again and again.

…

It was already nighttime after he bade farewell to Chu Bowen.

A black curtain covered the sky, and stars dotted it.

Lu Benwei rubbed his hands and exhaled.

“It’s so cold! Dragon City is still so cold. I wonder how cold Hei Province is?”

After complaining, Lu Benwei shrunk his neck and crossed his arms as he headed to the restaurant.

“Lu Benwei, why are you alone?”

Gan Yan and Li Tiancheng were eating together, but Chu Yan was nowhere to be seen.

“Where’s Chu Yan?”

“I don’t know. I haven’t seen her since this afternoon,” Gan Yan replied without turning his head.

Lu Benwei shook his head and left the restaurant.

“Where did this girl go?”

“I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later, Sorry…”

Lu Benwei dialed a few times, but all he got was a cold mechanical voice. Therefore, he began to look for Chu Yan aimlessly in school.

“Uncle Lin, have you seen Chu Yan?”

Lu Benwei went to the west gate first and found Uncle Lin.

When school started, Lu Benwei, Chu Yan, and Uncle Lin, who was a security guard, had a conflict. Fortunately, Li Tiancheng arrived on time and resolved the conflict.

After a few days, Lu Benwei and Uncle Lin became more familiar with each other. After all, there were so many students at Yanjing Hunter University, and only a few exchange students.

“Are you talking about the Chu girl? I haven’t seen her!”

Lu Benwei nodded and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Uncle Lin to help me check the surveillance cameras at each gate.”

After some searching, Lu Benwei realized that Chu Yan had not left Yanjing Hunter University.

“Where did this girl go?”

Lu Benwei scratched his head, unable to think of a clue.

“Why don’t I ask my brothers to help you look for it?” Uncle Lin gave Lu Benwei an idea.

“Everyone has their own missions. We can’t delay them just because of me.” Lu Benwei shook his head.

“I’ll look for her myself! Thank you, Uncle Lin!”

After thanking Uncle Lin, Lu Benwei began to search aimlessly on the campus. He even bumped into Qin Lianqing along the way.

“Little man, where are you going?”

Lu Benwei was not interested in this temperamental woman. He only said lightly, “Looking for someone.”

Qin Lianqing raised his eyebrows and said, “Looking for someone? Let me guess, it’s Chu Yan?”

Lu Benwei knew that he could not hide it from her, so he asked again, “Does Teacher Qin know where she is?”

“I know,” Qin Lianqing said playfully.

“Where is she?” Lu Benwei’s eyes lit up.

Qin Lianqing chuckled, his face full of playfulness and even a hint of mockery.

“Kneel and beg me.”

“Are you itching for a beating again?” Lu Benwei’s face was full of black lines.

“I took a huge risk to bring you to the banquet yesterday. You didn’t thank me and even hit me,” Qin Lianqing said, “Is your heart made of stone?”

Lu Benwei’s heart trembled as he looked at Qin Lianqing. Yesterday, it was Qin Lianqing who brought her to the Zhu family’s banquet. He caused a ruckus at the banquet.

The Qin family would also be angered by the eight great families because of this. All in all, Lu Benwei owed Qin Lianqing a favor.

“I’m sorry,” Lu Benwei said sincerely.

“Tsk, you want to bribe me with just an apology?” Qin Lianqing rolled his eyes.

“Then what does Teacher Qin want to do?” Lu Benwei asked bitterly.

Qin Lianqing chuckled, a faint light flowing in her beautiful eyes. “How about being my boyfriend?”

Lu Benwei was stunned, and he was petrified on the spot.

“Teacher Qin, stop joking,” after a long time, Lu Benwei replied.

“Really, I’m not lying to you!” Qin Lianqing’s beautiful eyes blinked brightly.

Lu Benwei could not figure her out. From the first time he saw this woman, Qin Lianqing gave him the impression that she was an icy beauty with a princess temperament.

However, ever since she was taught a lesson by Lu Benwei, Qin Lianqing seemed to have changed into a different person. Her personality was completely the opposite of before, at least, in Lu Benwei’s eyes.
