Director Qi shouted furiously, "If it's not Mr. Feng, who did you think it was?"

"Director Qi, t-this is a misunderstanding. I thought that it wasn't him, I thought it was a scammer. I met a scammer here, and he said he wanted Mr. Feng to expel me. I thought he was bragging, so..." Pollard hurriedly explained.

Director Qi was even more furious as he shouted, "A scammer? That's Fade, Mr. Chen. He's a special teacher specially hired by our University. You said that he's a liar..."

Upon hearing this, Pollard fell into shock. He stared at Fade in confusion.

As a teacher of Capital University, he had naturally heard of Fade. He was just in his early twenties when the principal had personally requested him to teach in the university. Thus, it had made a record there. Back then, due to this, there were a lot of discussions in the university, and some even questioned why Uriah did this.

However, after Fade's academic achievements and his personal achievement in Chinese Medicine were revealed, all of their doubts naturally disappeared.

He then became the university's center of attention. They heard rumors spreading around the university when it came to his background, but all of those were just rumors; none of them had evidence supporting their claims.

But now, with just one phone call, Fade was able to get in touch with Uriah, and got him fired directly. There was no doubt that this verified all the previous rumors.

However, it was already too late.

"Director Qi, this is a misunderstanding. I made a mistake. That is the only reason why I said all that. I'll call Mr. Feng and apologize right away. I'll..." Pollard desperately tried to make up for it. However, Director Qi's cold and harsh words interrupted him. "No, from now on, you are no longer a member of Capital University. Don't ever come back again."

"No, Director Qi, please don't. I know I was wrong. I..." Pollard tried desperately to explain, but the sound of the call ending completely made his final attempt to make up for it be in vain. His cell phone slipped and fell onto the ground directly. He collapsed. His entire body seemed to have been drained of all its energy and in an instant, and he was paralyzed on the floor. "You, you actually..." He stared at Fade with a complicated expression. At that very moment, he couldn't tell what he was feeling. Shock, anger, and even feelings of hatred were all mixed in his eyes. Fade ignored him, took Joey's hand, turned around, and was ready to leave.

Concurrently, a middle-aged man in his sixties walked out of the room.

The man was wearing a shirt, a suit, and trousers. He had a beer belly and his hands were behind his back. He definitely looked arrogant.

"Pollard, what's taking you so long? What happened?" The middle-aged man asked.

When Pollard, who was almost paralyzed on the ground, heard this voice, and his eyes lit up. He shouted internally, "I've been fired by the university, I can't go back to Capital City. Now, my only hope is Bennett. If I can please him then it is my last hope to find a job."

Pollard then turned around and forced a smile on his face. He lowered his head as he said apologetically, "Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry. Something came up, and it delayed some of my time."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Bennett Xu, the director of the Museum in Zobery District, asked.

When he heard this, Pollard turned to Joey and

said, "Director Xu, it's not a big deal. I just happened to meet my junior at Capital University. I think we are all professionals and will be colleagues in the future. I just told her to come and propose a toast to you so that everyone could get to know each other."

"I originally had good intentions. Well, I didn't expect that they would be so indifferent to my goodwill, so I..." Pollard deliberately sighed as he explained. Then, he apologized to Bennett, "Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry. It's my fault that I delayed your meal."

When he heard Pollard's words, Bennett looked a little uncomfortable.

Pollard was just a counselor at Capital University, and he had to suck up to him. As a result, his junior, a student who had not graduated yet, actually seemed so indifferent. This inevitably made him upset. Suddenly, he snorted, and his expression sank. He looked at Joey and said, "Nowadays, young students have quite a character! However, if they are so hot-headed and impatient, I'm afraid the archeology path is not very suitable for them..."

Before he could finish his words, Mr. Xu saw Joey's face, and the expression on his face suddenly froze. He was rooted in place for a long time.

A moment later, after he had come back to his senses, his originally serious face was now full of smiles, and his eyes were filled with excitement. He rubbed his hands and said to Joey, "Little girl, what's your name? You are also an archaeological major at Capital University. I know Director Qi quite well. I'm eating inside. Why don't you come and join us?"

Joey looked at the fat Bennett, who had saliva drooling out of his mouth. How could she not know what he was thinking about? Her eyes suddenly turned cold and she said in an icy voice, "No, I'm not interested."

After that, she turned around, and was about to leave.

However, it was not easy for Bennett to meet such a gorgeous little girl who was also in the same field. How could he be willing to let her go? He quickly added, "You may not know, but I am the director of the museum in the Zobery District. My name is Bennett Xu. The guests in my private room are not ordinary people. They are the owners of an antiques company and experts of the auction houses. You can join us and it will help you down the road. When the time comes..."

Without waiting for him to finish, Joey waved her hand in disgust and interrupted him. "Enough, don't think that I am clueless as to what you're thinking. Don't try to play tricks with me. I'm not interested, and I don't care."

"You..." The dignified Bennett had never been spoken to like this before. Moreover, she was a little girl who had not even graduated yet.

Thinking of this, Bennett's expression instantly sank, and his face was very gloomy. "Do you know what you are doing..."

Joey didn't bother to pay attention to him. She glanced at Fade and said, "Fade, let's go."
