The Long-awaited Mr Han Chapter 2304

Chapter 2304: Standard’s Too Low

Han Leilei handed Lu Man a can of fruit juice. Sun Mengying from the National Drama Academy participated in the “Chinese Arts Championships” too, so Lu Man knew her.
“Lu Man, where’s your luggage?” Sun Mengying asked.
Lu Man shooked her head. “The dorm’s for me to rest at during the day. I won’t be staying here.”
Han Leilei explained, “Young Master Han’s here too. He won’t let Lu Man stay here for sure.”
The Han Family didn’t have a villa here.
So they all stayed in hotels.
They’d booked rooms for a month straight, and apart from accompanying Lu Man to the exchange competition, it was convenient for them to have a little more fun here before and after the competition.
Wang Juhuai’s place was in Los Angeles, not in New York, so he stayed in a hotel with Xia Qingwei.
He had brought Lu Man and Xia Qingwei to visit his home before.
It wasn’t the place he had lived with Lin Jinshu.
Because he himself couldn’t stand having traces of Lin Jinshu in his life, he’d moved after divorcing her.
Thus, Xia Qingwei wouldn’t feel uncomfortable there as well.
Sun Mengying nodded, understanding.
She was merely curious and had no other opinion.
“When I went to report in, I saw that they were very unfriendly towards me. I thought they were only hostile towards me, but they mentioned you too in their words.” Lu Man said implicitly, “Are you all being bullied here too?”
When they heard this, everyone’s faces fell, appearing dejected.
Tan Mingxiao sighed. “If I hadn’t come here, I wouldn’t have known how low my standards were.”
Guo Hai said, “If they were actually just going to intimidate us and humiliate us on purpose, we wouldn’t have lost so terribly every time. But case in point, it’s because we were too lousy.”
“Wha happened exactly?” Lu Man asked.
From all their words, she still had no idea what had happened.
Han Leilei filled her in. “The nine of us arrived first, and we sensed their hostilities the moment we came in.
“And the moment we arrived, they took us down a notch down. We thought it was because we just came and an opening gambit was nothing much. But they actually didn’t stop at all.
“Every time there were assignments from professors, someone would take the chance to make things difficult for us and embarrass us. Of course, we do have room for improvement and are worse than them, so we just have to work harder.
“Perhaps we’re too far behind them, but we did improve when compared to our past selves,” Han Leilei continued.
“But they never stopped shaming us, and after losing a few times, we’d noticed this was unusual. Even if we’re lousier than they were, we’re here to learn, and they shouldn’t be acting this way.
“We’d discussed it among ourselves too, wondering if they’re doing this because they lost when they sent their exchange students over.
“They couldn’t handle the defeat and were trying to pick on us in return.
“After a period, we did confirm this was exactly what they were doing from their words.”
