Beside the man who was called Tenant, was a woman in a suit called Betty. She was holding a stack of documents and was busy sorting them out.
Seeing this, Fade could not help but feel slightly doubtful.
Sensing his doubts, Felicity whispered to him, "The buildings in the Chinese Medicine School are too old, and we don't have enough offices. Master Choi's office is relatively large, so he suggested dividing his office into another few parts so they can be used for other functions."
"The outermost room is our school's student union office. The room in the center is where Master Choi teaches his postgraduate students, and only the innermost room is Master Choi's office."
After hearing this, Fade finally understood and nodded thoughtfully.
Just then, Tenant and Betty noticed Felicity and Fade whispering to each other. They couldn't help frowning in displeasure.
Tenant said in an unpleasant tone, "Felicity, aren't you here to report something? Are you here to just
chit chat?"
After hearing his words, Felicity quickly explained, "Of course not, Tenant. This student is here to look for Professor Choi, but he got lost. Thus, I brought him here..."
Before she could finish, Tenant harrumphed loudly. Beside him, Betty threw the documents on the table heavily and glared at her. She snarled, "Felicity, are you aware of the school rules?"
"Betty, 1-1..." Felicity was at a loss. She looked at Betty in panic. She was distraught, with no idea what to do.
Betty remarked coldly, "Who allowed you to address Tenant by his first name? You should pay attention to your identity and status. You should address him as Mr. Liu instead."
"Oh, I..." Felicity was a little flustered. Then, she looked at Tenant and said timidly, "Mr. Liu, I-I'm sorry. I..."
He did not reply to her and instead, continued looking indifferent. Betty cleared her throat and snorted coldly. A second later, she shouted, "Felicity, do you know the rules? Do you know who you are?"
"You are also part of the student union of our college. Don't you know that you have to report everything based on the hierarchy of our student union? Do you even have a shred of common sense?" Betty berated her.
"I-1..." Felicity's face was slightly pale. It was true that she didn't think too much of it. She then stared timidly at Betty before stammering, "Betty, I..."
"Why are you still addressing me as Betty?" Her expression darkened as she berated Felicity.
She quickly amended her words and said, "Miss Zhang, l-l have something to report to you."
Hearing this, Betty crossed her arms in front of her chest. After a pause of around four to five seconds, she scoffed haughtily, "Go on!"
Felicity quickly continued, "Miss Zhang, I- I've brought this student to find Professor Choi. May I know if he is in his office?"
After the question, Betty nodded and then leaned over towards Tenant. She smiled seductively, "Tenant, about this..."
Without waiting for her to finish, he waved his hand and said, "I understand. I'll handle it."
Then, he looked at Fade and asked in a deep voice, "Are you looking for Professor Choi?"
Fade noticed Tenant's arrogant tone and could not help frowning. However, he still nodded and said, "Yes."
Fade said, "Professor Choi asked me to come here and you led the way for me. This is an act of kindness, and you shouldn't be blamed because of that."
Felicity nodded and felt a little better.
Meanwhile, Tenant and Betty started to sneer at Fade after hearing what he said.
"Professor Choi asked you to come? Are you kidding me?"
"Who are you? Judging by Professor Choi's identity, why would he take the initiative to invite someone like you here? You should really learn how to spin logical lies."
"I have good reason to suspect you of improper intentions due to your suspicious identity. Betty, please ask the security guards to come over! Detain him and conduct a search to prevent any accidents from happening."
"Yes, Mr. Liu."
Soon, the two security guards came upstairs and were going to take Fade away.
Fade warned them coldly, "I am Master Choi's guest. If you don't believe me, you can call him to confirm it."
The security guards looked at each other in dismay before turning to Tenant. Obviously, they did not have Master Choi's phone number, so they could only seek Tenant's help.
However, he didn't want to confirm Fade's identity at all. He waved his hand and ordered, "He is just a young lad with no proper identity. How could he be a guest of Professor Choi? You don't need to confirm anything. Just arrest him and take him to the Department of Safety and Security. If you investigate him carefully, perhaps you can tell us more things."
