Chen Huaying had just arrived, and everyone held a mix of curiosity and rejection toward this special recruit. After all, this place was devoid of mediocrities: each individual prouder and more arrogant than the last. How could a female comrade also be specially recruited into the best National Security University in the country? However, from the moment Chen Huaying set foot into the university, she never ceased to amaze everyone.
Her overall quality—personality, temperament, and even gun skills and athleticism—every aspect easily outshined the males.
She was the embodiment of every fantasy a girl could have about boys, and as a result, she had become an object of worship among the female students, who affectionately bestowed upon her the nickname Mr. Chen.
The males of National Security University couldn’t help but envy her.
"Have you had enough?" Su Huai’an tossed the whistle to someone else and turned to head for his office. Lately, he had been utterly preoccupied with Chen Huaying, not even returning home for breaks, devoting all his time and energy to her.
Chen Huaying frequented the Song and Dance Troupe for no apparent reason, her eyes lighting up whenever she saw a comrade from the Qianjin Dance Troupe. This alone was cause for concern to him, but despite his strict guard, the girl went straight from being Boss Flower to Mr. Chen.
He could already foresee a day when Chen Huaying would bring a female partner back to the General Union Courtyard. By then, Mr. Chen would probably be infuriated.
Su Huai’an couldn’t help getting angry every time he heard others call Chen Huaying "Mr. Chen", but thankfully, his temperament was in check; otherwise, she might have driven him mad. The more he tried to stop it, the more joyfully the female students shouted the nickname, and they all loved playing with Chen Huaying.
"Wait for me!" Chen Huaying quickly caught up, pleadingly asking, "Can I take a leave?"
"What do you want leave for now?" Su Huai’an turned abruptly, and Chen Huaying nearly crashed into his arms—fortunately, her quick reflexes saved her from the collision.
"You scared me to death! Can’t you avoid stopping so suddenly?" Chen Huaying pulled a face.
"Without a good enough reason, I won’t approve it!" Su Huai’an pursed his lips tight, his expression softening slightly as he saw Hai Shen approaching.
"What’s with you? I’ve been putting up with you long enough!" Unable to successfully plead, Chen Huaying turned aggressive. "Approve it right now; I don’t have that much time to waste."
"Approval is out of the question, but you can drop out of school."
"...You... Fine, you win!" He had hit her where it hurt.
"Cough, cough... I’m not interrupting anything, am I?" Hai Shen teased.
"No!" Su Huai’an’s tone was detached and cool.
Chen Huaying wasn’t in such a good mood, retorting irritably, "If you know that, why ask?"
"Hahaha... Yingzi, your temper’s a bit too bad, not a good sign!"
"It’s none of your business!" Who wouldn’t be in a bad mood, being constantly watched and unable to fight back, their soft spot tightly gripped by someone else. "What do you want?"
"I’ve got some business!" Hai Shen briefly explained what he knew, ending with, "I thought since Dabao is good friends with you guys, I’d invite you to join us."
He had actually come to find Su Huai’an, hoping to drag him into it, but he ended up discovering an interesting situation. If he could bring Chen Huaying into it as well, things could get a lot more fun.
"You feeling that generous?" Chen Huaying asked skeptically. "Aren’t you Hai Lan’s brother? Won’t you be siding with Hai Lan and bullying Dabao?"
Hai Shen just smiled without a word. Although he didn’t approve of Hai Lan inwardly, he still needed to play the part in front of others. Otherwise, he figured his uncle would be quite upset.
