Back at the dorm, Ma Yao and the others had already gone to class.
She was somewhat of a lone ranger.
However, Liu Hongmin quickly brought her the student ID needed for classes in person. The process this time was exceptionally swift and efficient. He even hinted to Bai Xiao that he could arrange a single dorm room for her, a privilege typically reserved for doctoral students.
Bai Xiao still declined these kind gestures.
Yet, she was very grateful for Liu Hongmin's overtures and was exceedingly polite in her response.
"Bai Xiao, since you don't want any special treatment, I won't insist. But if you ever need anything, just come to me directly, and I'll make sure it's taken care of."
Liu Hongmin was genuinely eager to establish a good relationship. Not just him, even Vice-Chancellor Zhao was probably sharpening his wits to curry favor with this young lady.
"Director Liu, don't think I'm a bother; I will definitely come to you if there's anything," Bai Xiao joked with a smile.
