The other teachers were quite envious of Lu Bin for encountering such a student. After all, getting acquainted with someone like Boss Yan is always a good thing for new counselors fresh out of school like them.
However, the fact that Lu Bin was able to stay on at the school proves he's no fool. Having interacted with Yan Fei frequently, he's gained a pretty good understanding of Boss Yan's temperament. He knows that if he were to openly try to curry favor, Boss Yan would probably give him some face, but that would lessen the goodwill between them. It's better to maintain this distant, casual relationship for now — not aiming to borrow too much influence. In case of a critical moment in the future, asking Boss Yan for a small favor would suffice.
