It was only after Ye Zun got off the plane that he realised he was in an awkward difficult situation.

Damn the moment Shen Wei decided to send him abroad. The latter must only have thought about getting him out of the country, the farther the better, without considering how far the destination is, or what the climate would be like, not even the language spoken.

Ye Zun lowered the brim of his cap and cursed under his breath after meeting the person who was supposed to be his translator.

The man had a horrible  Chinese that Ye Zun barely managed to understand what exactly he was saying. Only after a long time, the man did figure out who he was before sending him straight to the so-called new college, and after helping him with some formalities, he left him completely and heartily in an unknown corner of the campus.

Ye Zun gritted his teeth, how could Shen Wei be this hateful and do this to him!

He wandered around randomly, the internet in this place was slow as hell, the person who picked him up had left in a hurry, he still hadn't had time to get a mobile phone card yet, and wasn't quite able to communicate with the people around him. It was the first time he had experienced this feeling of powerlessness. He looked at the map and was halfway torn between heading north or south when an argument not far across him caught all his attention.

"How the hell did the Crows get their hands on this place! The Crow Clan obviously has nothing to do in here! What a cheekiness!" A young man in a middle of a group of people said that and kicked the bench right before him in anger.

 The bunch of people surrounding and following him were busy reassuring him, but the angry young man did not listen to any consolation coming from them, and just kept on kicking the bench to vent his anger, before he sat down on it only to sulk.

The Crows Clan ....... Ye Zun lowered his head, unable to say for a moment how much he was lucky, whether to have met someone who spoke Chinese, or to have met someone who came from Dragon City.

Ye Zun turned sideways to have a better look at the young man, the latter was frowning, and according to the consolation he had just heard from the people surrounding the guy one after another, the sulking guy seemed to be someone from the Wang family.

But doesn't Mr. Wang only have one precious son? .....Ye Zun rubbed his fingertips on the map a few times, blinking his eyes, quickly realising another problem.

The so-called illegitimate son of the great family should be far more than just him. He folded the map in his hands a few times and took the initiative to walk toward the group of people on the opposite side of him. It's rare to have met someone from Dragon City in this place, he knew he shouldn't waste this chance no matter what.

"Excuse me ...." Ye Zun held the map as he approached, looking incredibly well-behaved. His hair was tied loosely behind his head in a ponytail, the locks of hair scattered on the side of his face, Ye Zun gently tucked them behind his ears, his backpack was slung across his body, the modest suitcase stood by his side, and he had that somewhat melancholy look again.

Perhaps it was Ye Zun's unusual politeness, or his rare courtesy, or maybe it was the fact that the man in front of him had somehow recognised him, that had made the man's expression change from sulking to becoming stunned. 

The young man's followers wanted to shoo Ye Zun away but were stopped by a wave of hand from their young boss. They were weirded out about the change of behaviour of their boss, the latter who had just been swearing and cursing, had now withdrawn all his expressions and was surprisingly calm, only clasping his hands in some arrogance.

"Dormitory building .... How do I get there?" Ye Zun asked politely, handed the map in his hand to the man in front of him and blinked a few times innocently with a faint smile on his pretty face, "I've just arrived, and I'm not too familiar with the place." He added as he looked around him, knew too well how he should pose and play as an innocent to show weakness, after all, this trick had worked with Shen Wei in the past, and it should also work now with those who seemed less intelligent.
