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

Chapter 64 Invited
"Ok?"

A soft snort came from the side, and the hand in front of Li Xiaoen's eyes moved away, revealing Su Feier's face with a frown and confusion, "You are not scared?"

"Ms. Sophie, that's the sound of a dog."

Li Xiaoen took a deep breath and sat up. "If you want to scare people next time, please be more professional."

Last night, in order to protect the hiking team, he used a Ruyi prop, which lasted until midnight and he was woken up early in the morning. Li Xiaoen had the urge to ask this young lady for protection money.

Li Xiaoen glanced at Su Feier, ignoring his discontented expression. "What time is it?"

"It's six in the morning, everyone will be up soon."

Sufeil had already changed into long-sleeved shirt and long pants for hiking and was sitting on the carpet when he answered. Then he remembered something and quickly stood up, holding his sleeping bag and clothes in his arms. "I'm going back."

"Eh...eh..."

Seeing this, Li Xiaoen quickly grabbed a corner of the sleeping bag in Sufei's arms to prevent her from leaving the tent.

"What are you going to do?"

Su Feier turned around, an anxious look emerging on her usually proud face. She twisted her body and kept pulling, but she couldn't tear Li Xiaoen's hand away. "Why are you pulling on my sleeping bag?"

"You dare to do it but not to take responsibility for it. You slept here with me for one night, and you are still afraid that other classmates will know?" Li Xiaoen tilted his head nonchalantly.

"you……"

Sufeier gritted his teeth and said, "Nothing happened. I don't want others to see it and gossip or make false accusations. Got it?"

"Yes, I understand."

Li Xiaoen nodded seriously, but did not let go of the hand he was holding tightly. He looked up at Sufeil and asked, "Offset a promise?"

"..."

Su Feier's originally anxious expression froze when he heard this. After he came to his senses, resentment instantly accumulated in his heart, and he raised his foot and kicked Li Xiaoen.

Li Xiaoen's heart trembled, and he dodged backwards quickly. Only then did he realize that he had lost control of the Suffield sleeping bag. He couldn't help but sigh while sitting on the ground.

"Humph."

Su Feier snorted lightly and looked at Li Xiaoen with contempt. "Xiaoen, let me tell you, counting the two times I helped you, since you provoked me again, the two times you promised me last night are invalid. You still owe me six promises."

After saying that, Sufeil turned around, first stuck his head out to look around outside the camp, and then quietly walked out of the tent.

"Help me twice?"

Li Xiaoen didn't care about the six promises. When he heard Sufeier mention helping for the second time, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

As far as he could remember, Sufei had sent him two text messages to promise to borrow $100,000, and the second time was when he was driving back from shopping for Victoria.

What did she do to help herself at that time?

Create some space for myself and Victoria?
Li Xiaoen felt strange in his heart. When he heard the leading senior student outside calling out loudly, he stood up and began to pack up the tent.

Perhaps it was because they had safely passed a dangerous night that in the morning everyone sat around the ashes of the fire, gnawing on hard-to-swallow dry food, but there was a special kind of energy and passion.

"I'm telling you, I'm not lying to you. I heard the roar of a bear when I was on guard last night."

A male student, chewing on a piece of compressed biscuit, couldn't hide his excitement. He looked around at everyone and said, "I was so nervous at the time. I held the stun gun in my hand and stood outside the camp. Unfortunately, the bear didn't show up."

"From what you said, you still hope the bear will come?"

A classmate nearby scoffed, "If the bear really comes, you'll probably be too scared to walk."

"Nonsense! If I were afraid, why would I agree to go on the night watch?" the boy retorted immediately, turning and nudging his friend. "Jax, you were there at the night watch last night. Did you hear it too?"

"I?"

Jax pointed at himself and froze for a moment, a look of confusion on his face. "Maybe I wasn't paying attention. I didn't hear any screams."

“What the hell!…”

Facing the gazes of everyone staring at him, the boy was speechless for a moment and waved his hands helplessly, "Forget it, forget it. I saw you dozing off while on guard last night. It's normal that you couldn't hear it."

"No, I didn't doze off, and I didn't hear any bear roars!"

Jax quickly retorted, and the two night watch partners who relied on each other last night suddenly started to confront each other.

"Okay, stop arguing."

The leading senior student interrupted the two of them and looked at the boy seriously, "I'll assume you really heard a bear roar. Didn't I tell you last night that if you find any trace of a bear, you should immediately wake everyone up, right?"

"This……"

The boy's face became tangled, and he explained in a low voice, "Actually... the sound wasn't loud. I only heard it vaguely and thought it was an illusion."

"Uu——"

The students sitting in a circle all made mocking noises at the same time.

Is this what it feels like to hide one’s achievements and fame?

Li Xiaoen bit a piece of biscuit and silently watched the group of people still arguing over the bear from last night, and couldn't help but feel amused.

His eyes unconsciously swept over the classmates around him, and Li Xiaoen unconsciously began to explore the specific identities of the two people, oh, three people he happened to see last night.

He did this subconsciously in his mind, but Li Xiaoen was still glad that he did not delve into it and saw clearly the faces of the two people in the tent at that time.

Although he would subconsciously want to find out about these things that had nothing to do with him or his friends, if he really knew about them, it would undoubtedly do him more harm than good.

As a topic of conversation with friends? He couldn't do the behavior of talking behind someone's back.

To satisfy his curiosity? If he knew the truth, how would he face that woman's boyfriend?

Because the subsequent hiking trip was cancelled, everyone ate very slowly throughout the breakfast. They chatted as they ate, and the atmosphere gradually became lively. Even the boy in front who shouted that a bear was coming joined in enthusiastically, without any embarrassment from before.

Not long after waiting, they heard the roar of machinery and felt the sudden gust of wind around them. They looked up and saw an orange helicopter flying towards them.

"yeah--"

Everyone couldn't help but raise their hands and cheer, and finally relaxed their last bit of vigilance.

There was not enough space on the helicopter. Fortunately, Li Xiaoen was selected among the people in the first group, so he didn't have to wait foolishly for the second group, even though there were already professional rescue personnel stationed in the open space.

After getting off the helicopter in an open space in the nearby town, Li Xiaoen hadn't looked up yet, but he saw Sufeil, who got off with him, quicken his pace and hug a beautiful woman not far ahead tightly.

The beautiful woman looks somewhat similar to Sufeil, and her every move reveals an aura of wealth. She must be her mother, right?
Li Xiaoen thought to himself and immediately withdrew his gaze. Since he didn't need to wait in the forest for the first time, he had to wait in the town and meet up with others before going back together.

After finding a clean step to sit down, Li Xiaoen's eyes suddenly fell into darkness and he couldn't help but look up.

Sufeier and his daughter had already come in front of him. Not to mention that Sufeier was half a body behind him and had a helpless and headache expression on his face with his lips pursed, the lady in front of him bent down and leaned forward with a gentle and peaceful smile on her face.

"Sean, right? Want to chat sometime?"
