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

Chapter 109 New York, Manhattan
"Those are some harsh words, Amelia."

Li Xiaoen helplessly replied, "I just think it's fun. The girls are happy, I'm happy, and everyone is happy, right?"

This was what he was thinking. If he simply took out the note, Jie Lin would definitely not be as happy as before. Since he had a more interesting idea, why not put it into action?

"Strong words!"

"Okay, even if I'm being unreasonable."

Li Xiaoen shrugged and replied, feeling a little impatient for a moment, "Why, I feel like you're just like your mother..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire car fell silent, and Li Xiaoen couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror.

Amelia turned her head and stared blankly at the scenery outside the car. There was no expression on her pretty face, but a chill spread through her heart.

Well, at least no more hassle.

Li Xiaoen didn't care. He returned to the Princeton gate and dropped Amelia off. Just as he was thinking about parking in the parking lot next to the school gate, the security guard at the gate suddenly approached...

"Are you saying that my car doesn't have enough documentation?"

After hearing the guard's explanation, Li Xiaoen couldn't help but laugh in surprise, "You should remember, I've been staying here for over a month."

Because he arrived early, there were few people in the school before school started, and he had already become familiar with the security guards when he went in and out every day.

"I know that too."

The guard nodded helplessly, "But, this is the order from the superiors."

"..."

After pondering for a moment, Li Xiaoen nodded, said goodbye, and drove out of the school to a small factory in New Jersey where his uncle worked.

I had originally planned to pick up the Maserati sports car and drive it back to my uncle, but now it has been brought forward because of this incident.

Li Xiaoen did not feel resentful. On the way back in an Uber, he thought carefully for a while, took out his mobile phone to edit a message for Sufeil, unconsciously typed a long paragraph, hesitated for a moment, deleted it, and put the phone back into his pocket.

The next morning, Sunday.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Unfortunately, in America, especially in places like New Jersey that are more rural and urban, there are no Mid-Autumn Festival elements. There are some in Chinatown in New York, but they disappear a little further away.

As soon as he opened the door, Li Xiaoen saw a Tesla sedan parked in front of the dormitory. The window was rolled down and Meng Yufan in the driver's seat waved.

"Brother Fan, I really doubt that this Mid-Autumn Festival party you took me to this time was really a scam."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Xiaoen was very talkative and casual with this senior who had also studied in China and had taken a lot of care of him. He couldn't help but complain in Chinese, "You parked in front of my dormitory so early in the morning. Are you afraid that I will regret it and run away?"

"Ha ha……"

Meng Yufan laughed as he drove, "Don't worry, you're a poor international student like me. You don't have any money, but you'd be more than happy to agree if I asked for your body. What are you afraid of?"

As soon as he said that, Meng Yufan suddenly realized, "I said it wrong. You are so popular, you really need to be careful about this."

"What you said, doesn't it mean that it's not easy for girls to go there?"

Li Xiaoen raised his eyebrows. According to the chat group he had taken a quick look at, the proportion of girls attending the party was quite high.

"That's different."

Meng Yufan shook his head, glanced sideways at Li Xiaoen, and sighed with emotion, "America is a big dye vat. In the end, only the white lotus can emerge from the mud without being stained."

"Senior, were you dumped by a girl who is also an international student?"

"Screw you!"

Meng Yufan couldn't help but laugh and scolded, "I just saw the reunions a few years ago and saw that some girls had changed a lot."

"Is there a girl you like, senior?" "That's not the end, is it?"

Meng Yufan glanced helplessly.

"Ha ha……"

Li Xiaoen laughed loudly and leaned back comfortably in his chair, holding his head. "Senior, let me tell you in advance, if I find anything wrong when we get there, I will run away at any time."

"Run away?"

Meng Yufan was stunned for a moment, "Are you not going back in my car?"

"Well, there are some things." Li Xiaoen chuckled but didn't say it clearly.

"Looking at you like this, I know that no matter what the party is like, you will sneak away early."

Meng Yufan complained, but didn't care, and turned his gaze to the road ahead.

As the surrounding roads became crowded and the scenery on both sides was replaced by concrete buildings, the two drove to New York, arguably the most prosperous city in the world, and parked their car in a public parking lot in DUMBO.

DUMBO actually stands for Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass, which means under the Manhattan Bridge in Chinese. It is a popular tourist attraction in New York.

Li Xiaoen looked up from his phone, looking at the ancient red brick buildings on both sides of the road ahead and the huge Manhattan Bridge at the end of the road. He moved his feet and came to the grass by the East River. He took in the Manhattan skyline stretching across the opposite bank and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This is a real steel jungle. As the richest district in the most prosperous city of New York, Manhattan has the highest concentration of skyscrapers in the world. It houses the headquarters of most of the Fortune 500 companies and Wall Street, which is considered the most important financial center in the world. It controls the economic pulse of the entire United States and even the world.

It is not only the spectacular scenery of skyscrapers, but also the unrivalled economic status that is enough to attract thousands of tourists.

"Sean, come here, let me take a picture of you."

Meng Yufan behind him greeted him, and Li Xiaoen turned around and waved his hand helplessly.

"Don't take a picture of me, just take a picture."

"Oh, okay."

Meng Yufan didn't insist. After all, he rarely took photos when he went out to play. He moved closer to Li Xiaoen and said with a smile, "Why, looking at this spectacular scene, do you have the urge to stay here?"

"let's discuss it later."

Li Xiaoen shook his head and smiled, looking at the scenery above the grassland.

"Eh……"

Meng Yufan looked at Li Xiaoen with a strange expression on his face. "From the way you look at it, it seems you really have that idea and are quite confident."

"Fortunately."

Li Xiaoen raised an eyebrow at Meng Yufan, "If you don't have ideals in life, what's the difference between you and a salted fish?"

"..."

After staring at Li Xiaoen blankly for a while, Meng Yufan finally nodded: "Okay, it's a good thing that you have confidence and are willing to work hard."

"How proud we Chinese would be if we could stand firmly and firmly here in Manhattan."

Meng Yufan sighed repeatedly as he spoke, patting Li Xiaoen's shoulder jokingly, "Xiaoen, when you really succeed, don't forget your senior. Give me a job as a janitor. I don't ask for much, just the minimum hourly wage. It's something that will make you proud."

"Well, don't worry."

Li Xiaoen looked at Meng Yufan with a serious look and nodded, "I'll keep it in mind."

Meng Yufan: “…”
