“This suits Lu Mingfei’s lifestyle well,” Chu Zihang said calmly. “Let’s wait a little longer!”

"Never mind, I'd better eat first! The main selling point of Regent's food is its 'expensive' prices," Lin Yu said.

"Is it really okay to eat during an interview? We're the interviewers, after all," Chu Zihang commented.

"But I'm hungry too," Erii said.

"Two to one, let's eat!" Lin Yu picked up his phone. "And get one for each of the juniors outside the door, that should do the trick!"

After saying that, he called the manager.

"Twenty-two salmon rolls, twenty truffle breads, and twenty glasses of fresh lemon juice, delivered to the executive floor."

"Yes, Young Master Yu, it will be delivered to you shortly," the manager on the other end of the phone replied respectfully.

Chu Zihang asked, "Why twenty-two salmon rolls?"

"Eri and I will each have two servings," Lin Yu said.

Erii has a huge appetite, but she never gains weight.

As a global chain of five-star hotels, the efficiency was quite satisfactory. Soon, staff pushed a food cart into the executive hall, with the manager leading the way.

Some of them were personally pushed by the manager to the inner conference room.

Wow! Do they provide breakfast for job interviews here? I haven't eaten yet.

A boy watched in amazement as the remaining waiters placed salmon rolls and bread in front of their respective tables.

"Tsk tsk, my family has only been here a few times occasionally. The service is great, but the prices are shockingly high," another boy said. Those who can attend Shilan Noble Academy all come from wealthy families.

"It doesn't matter, I can eat here every day without any problem," Su Xiaoqiang said. As the academy's "little angel," her family was rich.

Yeah, the kind that actually owns a mine.

"Actually, I just had breakfast, but seeing these makes me hungry again!" a boy mumbled, chewing on a salmon roll.

"Can't you eat a little slower? Nobody's going to take it from you," Su Xiaoqiang frowned, looking disgusted.

Liu Miaomiao, standing to the side, used a silver fork to pick up a salmon roll, elegantly brought it to her mouth, took a bite, and exclaimed with admiration, "This is even better than what I usually eat."

The students chatting and eating during the interviews eased the tense atmosphere of waiting for the exams.

Meanwhile, the manager pushed the food cart into the conference room, set out the silver platters, and then tactfully left.

His only goal was to show off in front of Lin Yu.

The table was laden with a sumptuous feast, and the enticing aromas seemed to sweeten the very air.

Erii sat at the dining table, her eyes shining, a slight smile playing on her lips, eagerly picking up her cutlery.

She extended her slender fingers, gently picked up a salmon roll, and carefully held it to Lin Yu's lips.

"Xiaoyu, you try it first," Erii said softly, her eyes filled with expectation and tenderness.

Lin Yu smiled, opened her mouth without hesitation, and gently bit into the salmon roll, praising it generously: "Delicious! Thank you, Erii!"

Hearing Lin Yu's praise, Erii's face lit up with a bright smile, her eyes narrowing into crescent shapes.

She happily forked herself another salmon roll, savoring the delicious moment.

It was clear that Erii was really hungry; her cheeks were puffed out as she chewed her food like a cute little hamster, which was quite amusing.

Lin Yu looked at Erii with doting eyes. He picked up a piece of bread and carefully spread jam on it for her. "Here, try this," he said gently.

Erii took the bread, took a bite, and exclaimed happily, "Delicious!" Her voice was like a clear bell, brimming with blissful joy.

At this moment, watching the two of them oblivious to everyone else and showering each other with affection, Chu Zihang's eyes shone brightly, and a maternal smile appeared on his lips.

That's the kind of person he is; he just wants others to be happy.

Of course, it would be even better if we could ignore the thirst for knowledge in Chu Zihang's eyes!

Chu Zihang: I've learned something!

Chapter 71 Lu Mingfei, the "Connection Agent"

"Lin Yu, isn't this restaurant also part of your family's business?" Chu Zihang asked.

“Not entirely. The Regent Hotels is a global chain, and it would be very troublesome to operate and manage if we bought the whole thing,” Lin Yu said, shaking his head. “So we simply invested directly, and now we just wait for the money to come in every year. We are currently the largest shareholder, holding 43% of the shares.”

"Oh, so you're treating us to this meal?" Chu Zihang took a sip of lemon juice.

"Just kidding, of course the school will reimburse us! They invest nearly 10 billion yuan in the school every year, they have to make a profit, right?" Lin Yu said jokingly.

"You still care about this little bit of money?" Chu Zihang retorted.

After all, this guy is someone who's not short of money.

Chu Zihang vividly remembered the time Lin Yu and Caesar celebrated together; the entire swimming pool was filled with champagne, so much so that you could drink it as soon as you opened your mouth while swimming.

Outside the door,

Lu Mingfei was led to the executive floor by a beautiful woman wearing a skirt suit and 10cm high heels.

At this moment, Lu Mingfei's shoulders were slumped, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had large dark circles around them.

Like a national treasure

Pushing open the door, Lu Mingfei's mind went blank. The serious, tense scene he'd imagined wasn't there at all. Instead, he saw several girls whispering amongst themselves and a group of boys scrambling for a salmon roll!

What the heck? Did the waitress lead us the wrong way?

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but have some doubts.

"Lu Mingfei!" Soon, a boy saw him and exclaimed in surprise.

Before you know it, the salmon roll on your plate has already been eaten by someone else.

Lu Mingfei was taken aback. What kind of salmon roll could make these "rich kids" fight over it? He stood there, somewhat bewildered.

"What are you doing here?" Su Xiaoqiang glanced at him sideways.

Lu Mingfei snapped out of his daze and swallowed hard. "I'm here for an interview!"

After saying that, he picked up the invitation and waved it twice.

Then I walked to the last position.

"They even provide breakfast for the interview! That's so thoughtful!" Lu Mingfei exclaimed, forking up a salmon roll and stuffing it into his mouth. His eyes instantly brightened. "It's so delicious!"

After quickly solving his own food and clothing problems, he thought, "This trip was definitely worthwhile!"

In the conference room,

Erii let out a comfortable burp, leaning against Lin Yu, "I'm full."

"Are we starting?" Chu Zihang finished the last sip of lemonade with a blank expression, got up, placed the three empty plates on the food cart, and pushed it aside.

"Let's wait a bit, until Lu Mingfei finishes eating," Lin Yu said, waving his hand.

"Okay!" Chu Zihang nodded in agreement.

"It doesn't matter if it's early or late, anyway, this interview is prepared just for Lu Mingfei. Tsk tsk, this treatment is one of a kind!"

Lin Yu said to Chu Zihang, who was intently looking at the file.

"Stop looking. I already sensed them with 'Word of Power: Blood Barrier,' and the others are just ordinary people."

"I know, I'm just looking for trouble," Chu Zihang said, recalling his first meeting with Lin Yu.

Then Lin Yu suddenly pulled him to a corner, looked at him, and said, "You're not human."

If Lin Yu hadn't activated his Golden Eyes, Chu Zihang might have drawn his sword on the spot.

Time passed second by second.

"I think we can begin!" Lin Yu said, straightening up, then looked at Chu Zihang.

"I'll go call someone in!" Chu Zihang understood Lin Yu's look, which clearly indicated "I don't want to move."

In the hall, Lu Mingfei sensed that many people were looking at him strangely. He looked at his clothes and even touched his face, but still didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him.

So what if I'm a little sloppy? Is it really that big of a deal?

Finally, Lu Mingfei couldn't hold back any longer. He reached out and touched Chen Wenwen sitting next to him on the table, and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with me?"

Chen Wenwen covered her mouth and whispered to him, "You seem perfectly normal."

"Then why are people looking at me strangely?" Lu Mingfei asked, his face full of doubt.

"The interviewers have arrived. There are three of them: Senior Brother Chu Zihang, Senior Brother Lin Yu, and a red-haired girl. She seems to have a very good relationship with Senior Brother Lin Yu!" Chen Wenwen whispered.

"So, they think I was able to attend the interview because I have a senior brother protecting me?" Lu Mingfei's comprehension wasn't bad; seeing Chen Wenwen nod slightly, he felt even more indignant.

"I...I just..." After stammering for a while, Lu Mingfei still couldn't find any reason why he was qualified to attend the interview, and he scratched his head in frustration.

The more I think about it, the more I feel this has to do with my senior. Could it be that he really bought the school?

Lin Yu: No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!

Why do I feel a little smug even though I wanted to complain?

Forget it, I'll just rely on my senior brother then! Others want to rely on him but don't!

Lu Mingfei comforted himself, thinking it wasn't anything shameful.

Chapter 72 Lu Mingfei's Thought Process

"Lu Mingfei, you go first!"

Chu Zihang opened the conference room door and called out.

"Senior Brother Chu!" Lu Mingfei greeted Chu Zihang with delight, "You're here, you're here!"

"Chen Wenwen, see you later!" Under the strange looks from his classmates, Lu Mingfei jogged towards the meeting room.

My confidence grew even stronger; my senior brothers had always been very reliable.

Lu Mingfei followed Chu Zihang closely into the conference room.

Upon entering the room, he found the conference room to be almost empty, with only Lin Yu and a very beautiful red-haired girl sitting there.

"Hello, Senior Brother Lin! Hello, Sister-in-law Lin!" Lu Mingfei greeted them politely.
