America: I came here to study, not to show mercy.

Chapter 69 Welcome Party is Coming
"Are they all from the hiking expedition club?" Michael couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, you are right!"

Daniel nodded heavily, and then the three of them looked at Li Xiaoen.

"Do you have photos of those classmates?" asked Li Xiaoen.

"It's on the school website, you can check it out."

Li Xiaoen took out his cell phone to check, and when he saw the four familiar faces, he had a general idea in his mind.

"Sean, you came back early that day too. Did something happen?"

"This hike ended early because they got into trouble."

Li Xiaoen shrugged helplessly, "I see the four of them always get together. Maybe something happened that caught the school's attention, so they investigated."

Logically speaking, it is not uncommon for people to enter universities in the United States by relying on money, power, and capital interests. It is unlikely that such a situation would occur where their records are suddenly dug up and they are persuaded to drop out. If it really happens now, it is likely that there is a larger background behind it.

Li Xiaoen suddenly thought of Sufeil, the daughter of the school's largest sponsor.

“Come on, come on…”

Daniel didn't hesitate too much. He clapped his hands and stood up again. "The break is over. Let's get back to training."

"It's rare to see you so positive."

Seeing Daniel's excitement, Li Xiaoen couldn't help but smile and sigh.

If he had been so active in studying and sports, Daniel, who has been determined to find a partner as soon as possible since the beginning of the school year, would not still be alone now - self-discipline can really make a big difference to a person's spirit and temperament.

"If the welcome party is a big hit, the girl will have to agree to be his girlfriend. How can he not be anxious?"

Michael scoffed in response, remaining unmoved by Daniel's greeting, "Daniel, please treat me to dinner tonight."

“What the f**k…”

Daniel paused and cursed, "I don't have much money left for food this month, and you're taking advantage of me to blackmail me?"

"Just answer whether you'll treat me or not."

Michael, however, was calm and collected. He grabbed a handful of colorful candies from the table and tossed them into his mouth one by one. "Wait a few days! You already have a girlfriend, and you're not willing to pay such a small price?"

"..."

Daniel remained silent and turned to look at Li Xiaoen.

"We are helping you to pick up girls, Daniel. Why don't you reward us?" Li Xiaoen did not help to persuade him, but shrugged with a smile.

As for Daniel, even if he really had no money for food, he still had a lot of food stored in the dormitory refrigerator.

Daniel looked at Malcolm again and received a toothless smile in return.

"Ok."

He sighed helplessly, then waved his hand proudly, "Tonight, at the Nassau restaurant outside the school, it's my treat!"

"Wow--"

As soon as Daniel finished speaking, Michael, the debtor, jumped up and shouted, grabbed the two front paws of the big dog sitting next to him and waved them, "Bruce, we have dinner!"

However, before Michael could be happy for a moment longer, Daniel locked his neck from behind, "You son of ab**ch..."

"Hey……"

Li Xiaoen shook his head helplessly, looked at the bewildered Malcolm, and handed him a bottle of soda water from the refrigerator.

This black man from an educated family seemed to be too quiet no matter how you looked at him. Although it was a bit strange to use this word to describe a man, Li Xiaoen felt that it was too appropriate.

The cautious way of getting along with each other made Li Xiaoen feel like they were just strangers who had just met. Michael treated this place as his home and casually rummaged through the snacks and drinks in the refrigerator, while he still acted politely, not daring to move here or look there.

Oh, besides bringing such a big dog. Li Xiaoen thought of something, looked down at the big dog sitting next to Malcolm, raised his hand and tentatively touched its head, "Is this a German Shepherd?"

"Yeah, it's a German Shepherd."

Malcolm raised his hand to block Li Xiaoen's hand, and comforted the nervous dog. He smiled and replied, "I originally kept it at home, but my parents didn't have time to take care of it, so I just brought it here."

“Are dogs allowed in Princeton?”

Malcolm gave an embarrassed smile when he heard this. "It's not allowed according to the rules. I did it secretly and wasn't discovered."

"Well, okay, I understand." Li Xiaoen nodded, not caring about Malcolm's expression.

It was just a violation of the rules, which was not a big deal in his opinion. They were friends, and as long as the other party did not do anything harmful to the world, he could turn a blind eye and there was no need for him to be a strict moral guardian.

He took out a piece of dried meat from the bag on the table and handed it to the German Shepherd. Seeing the big dog hesitate for a moment and then open its mouth slightly to take the dried meat, Li Xiaoen immediately felt in a good mood and raised his hand to rub its head again.

"Is it called Bruce?"

"Yeah, I named it." Malcolm nodded.

"Why are they all called this name?" Li Xiaoen's face turned strange.

"Change your name! Daniel!"

Michael's muffled voice came from the other side.

"You son of a bitch, you still want to provoke me, don't you?" Daniel locked his arms tighter.

"Okay, do you guys still want to train?"

Li Xiaoen helplessly shouted to the two people who were already struggling on the floor, "If you don't train, I'm going to the gym."

"Of course, of course I trained!"

Upon hearing this, Daniel quickly loosened his hands and feet, and walked to his cajon with a chuckle.

……

It was Wednesday, and after finishing his computer introduction class, Li Xiaoen was on his way to his basic psychology class.

As the welcome party approaches, an atmosphere of excitement is brewing throughout the school. As the first large-scale event of the school term, in addition to the freshmen, the senior students are also looking forward to it.

Of course, except for some graduate students who were tortured to death by their research topics - this was what Li Xiaoen saw in Alaric's office.

Fortunately, and also the result of long-term training, their program was successfully shortlisted for the evening party program list.

Being scheduled to perform in the middle time slot, we don’t have to worry about the opening atmosphere being too cold, nor do we have to worry about the climax before the end not being enough and making people lose interest. It can be said that we have been blessed by God.

Walking into the crowded classroom, Li Xiaoen looked around, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards Sufei's seat - Victoria didn't come to class this morning, and he had found a seat to sit alone last week.

"Thanks for saving the seat, but I don't need it today."

The two girls who sat next to him last time were signaling for them to help grab the seats. Li Xiaoen raised his hand and greeted them, then went to his previous seat and sat down with Su Feier across from Victoria's empty seat.

Looking sideways at Sufeil who was carefully flipping through the information on his iPad, Li Xiaoen didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment.

It seemed that, apart from a few individual things, he and Sufei had never had anything to talk about.

Besides, the class hasn’t started yet, why are you looking at it?
Li Xiaoen complained in his heart. He didn't remember that Sufeil was a good student who studied hard and prepared carefully.

"Sufeier, it was you who arranged for those four students to be persuaded to leave the hiking trip, right?"
