"Oh, not only that, his face shape is just like his..."

The professors were whispering amongst themselves, but the dean heard everything clearly. He was furious. So many people were watching, and he couldn't afford to lose his temper with them. He'd deal with them when he got down there.

The little girl was still crying when Chen Feng walked in. He had watched the whole match and heard the result.

Chen Feng walked up to the little girl, helped her up, and took out a tissue to wipe her tears. "Okay, don't cry. You won't be pretty if you cry too much."

The little girl took the tissue and wiped her tears. "What kind of rule is this? I've never heard of it before. I worked so hard to win this game, and now they're saying I can't pass? Ah..." The little girl was still very sad. After all, she was still a child, especially a little girl, and naturally she couldn't bear such injustice.

"Alright, stop crying now. If it really doesn't work, shall we try again next time? Or try other colleges?" Chen Feng asked.

"Next time? Wouldn't that be next year, another academy, Apocalypse?"

"Hmm?" Upon hearing the name Tianqi, Chen Feng decisively gave up. Next year was indeed too long. But why wouldn't the dean approve it? "How about this, I'll go and talk to the dean for you. Maybe you can pass?"

"Discuss it? It's possible? Maybe? Brother Chen Feng, are you sure?" the little girl asked with some doubt.

"Trust me, I'll give it a try, okay?" Chen Feng patted the little girl on the shoulder, then turned and walked to the dean's side.

The little girl watched the two of them talking back and forth. After a while, Chen Feng came back and told the little girl, "It's done."

"What? It's all settled? He agreed?"

Chen Feng patted her on the back and said, "Look."

The dean coughed twice to clear his throat, then laughed and said, "Haha...haha, I was just joking with everyone. Little girl, you're approved."

At that moment, it was as if a black crow flew by in the sky, cawing and scattering black dots, which was quite embarrassing.

Aside from the little girl's overjoyed expression, everyone was a bit confused, especially the professors. What's going on with our dean? Did he have a change of heart and decide to acknowledge his own child? What's going on?

Someone in the crowd asked, "Dean, is this a joke?"

The dean replied, "Of course not, this time it's for real. I never joke around, haha..."

"Dean, this is not funny at all..." People looked on with disdain. I knew it. How could they not pass? Making jokes like this.

The little girl leaned close to Chen Feng and whispered, "Brother Chen Feng, what did you say to him? Why did he change his mind?"

Chen Feng smiled but did not answer.

"School starts tomorrow, shall I take you out for a walk?" Chen Feng looked at the little girl, her happy expression reminding him of his own when he used to practice martial arts.

"Okay, I'll go, but where should we go?" the little girl pondered. "Shall we ride horses outside the city? Or go sightseeing?"

Chen Feng shook his head, "How about we go out for a big meal..."

The little girl nodded. "Okay, where to? To my place?" The little girl couldn't help but chuckle to herself. A big meal? She seemed to have already thought of this answer. Recalling Chen Feng's appetite, the answer was already self-evident.

"I'm not going to your place anymore. Let's go somewhere else. It's on me," Chen Feng replied.

The little girl looked at Chen Feng blankly. "Big brother, tell me the truth. You don't want to come to my place, is it because the food there isn't good? Is that it? You have to tell the truth..." The little girl didn't understand why Chen Feng wouldn't come to her place. Was it because the food was bad, or because it didn't suit Chen Feng's taste? She was going to inherit this inn in the future, and she had to understand this. If it was a matter of personal taste, then there was nothing that could be done, after all, everyone has different tastes. But if the food was bad, then that was it, because for an inn, the taste of the food was very important.

Chen Feng quickly shook his head, "No, it's nothing, don't overthink it. Your food is delicious, I just wanted to try something different, don't overthink it, ah..." Chen Feng didn't expect the girl to be so sensitive. He just wanted to try something different, how could she have thought of that?

The young girl still looked at Chen Feng with some doubt. "Really? It's not that the food is bad? Then is it that the service is unsatisfactory, or the portions are too small, or the price is unfair? Or is the hygiene poor?" The girl turned her head and threw out a few more questions. In her opinion, it wasn't just the taste of the food that affected customers; hygiene, service, whether the price was fair, and insufficient portions could all cause customers to leave. If these problems weren't taken seriously, the inn would go out of business. "Big brother, you have to tell me the truth, because it's very important to me. I'm going to take over the inn in the future, and every problem that could affect customer turnover must be eliminated as much as possible. Big brother, please tell me!"

Chen Feng was speechless. Why would this little girl think that way?

"Little girl, it really has nothing to do with those things. Think about it, if your family's food wasn't good, would I have eaten so much last time?"

"Eat so much?" The little girl suddenly realized, "I understand, it's because my family doesn't serve large portions, and you ate two meals in one go."

"Stop," Chen Feng quickly stopped him. "What's going on here? You forgot, I only spent a little money on two meals. Don't overthink it. Your family's food is delicious, plentiful, clean, and reasonably priced. But even the best food can't be eaten every meal. You need to change things up, just like how you eat. Have you always only eaten your own family's food?"

“No,” the little girl shook her head.

Chen Feng nodded, "That's right."

The young girl slowly leaned closer to Chen Feng's ear and whispered, "I'll let you in on a secret. I don't just eat at my own inn. Sometimes, to find out the market, I go to other inns and order some food to see their service, hygiene, taste, portion size, and price before deciding how to order food for my own inn."

Chen Feng stared wide-eyed at the little girl. This girl usually seemed harmless and innocent, so how could she have so many schemes? Is it true that all merchants are cunning? Could such a young girl not escape his notice?

"This is a secret. Don't tell anyone, especially not other inns. When you eat at their inns, never mention this kind of thing," the girl said cautiously.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't tell. But do you think it's possible that other inns are doing the same thing as you? After all, they also need to understand the market," Chen Feng analyzed.
