Director, The Version Has Been Updated

"No need for that, I'm afraid Auntie wouldn't be able to handle it."

"Oh, don't be so polite! We're all buddies."

"It's not necessary, I can get into Furun Group easily enough," Xu Yi had to explain again.

Oh really!

Wang Liang and Liu Yu's eyes widened simultaneously.

Young Master Xu is quite arrogant.

"Easily enough" (said sarcastically)

Xu Yi shrugged, not offering further explanation.

These brats have no idea about my background.

It's better this way, they'll be shocked when they find out later, and that'll be another wave of Emotion Points.

Just as Xu Yi was contemplating how to extract Emotion Points from the two, the dormitory door was pushed open.

"Director? What brings you here…"

The Director glanced at Xu Yi, then looked at Wang Liang and the other. "Still chatting?

Furun Group is holding a job fair at the school. The group has given our school over fifty internal spots."

Over fifty?!

The two inhaled sharply at the same time.

Don't think fifty is a small number.

Furun Group's competitiveness is such that out of perhaps ten thousand applicants, they might only hire one.

So, fifty internal spots are definitely special treatment for the school.

The Director nodded, "Yes, I don't know why Furun Group is showing our school such special favor this year. In previous years, they only gave us five or six."

Xu Yi felt a warmth spread through him. It was clear that Li Wen was being exceptionally generous because of him.

In fact, the message Li Wen had suddenly sent confirmed this.

Li Wen: [Xiao Yi, I've asked the General Manager of HR to recruit at your school. The Principal has already agreed to let you have a guaranteed postgraduate spot unconditionally.]

[You know the school well, help the manager screen employees. Consider it building your team in advance.]

"Young Master Xu, stop playing with your phone. Let's go, or the spots will be snatched up if we're late," Wang Liang urged.

"Okay."

As Xu Yi reached the doorway, the Director blocked his path with his arm.

"You don't need to go."

"Hm?"

"You're useless except for being handsome. Going would be pointless."

Xu Yi frowned.

Wang Liang and the other were also taken aback.

That's extremely high praise for a guy. Is the Director complimenting him or insulting him?

The Director continued, "So, you'd be better off staying behind to clean the dorm and then focus on your studies and preparing for postgraduate entrance exams."

I get it, the Director is deliberately targeting him.

The two exchanged glances, seeing bewilderment in each other's eyes.

Is the Director really that thick-skinned?

Doesn't he know Young Master Xu's background?

A Director! Even the Principal would have to be respectful.

In reality, the Director truly didn't know.

Because he wasn't high-ranking enough, the leaders accompanying the Director during his inspection were all Vice-Principal level or above.

Xu Yi also spoke up at this moment, "I won't trouble the Director with my affairs. I must attend this recruitment fair."

"What if I say you can't go?" The Director's expression darkened.

The atmosphere became tense.

Wang Liang quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Director, given Xu Yi's background, he could completely slack off. But he's actively participating in the job fair. It's very inspiring."

Wang Liang's words were practically a hint, but the thick-skinned Director just sneered repeatedly.

"Alright, I know you two are close. Him slacking off? It's already a mess if he's not actively trying."

"Director, you…"

Liu Yu's eyes lit up, as if he had found an opportunity to soar.

Then, his voice suddenly grew louder, "Director, you're going too far! How can you talk about student Xu Yi like that?"

Wang Liang glanced at Liu Yu and immediately understood everything.

You dog! You actually beat me to it.

"That's right! Director, I demand you apologize to Xu Yi."

Wang Liang chimed in, not wanting Liu Yu to take all the credit.

The director looked at the two of them, completely bewildered.

Something's not right!

These two jerks aren't joining in to kick me while I'm down. There's a problem!

But before he could ponder this, Xu Yi launched a direct assault, "Director, I just reported you for forcing students to buy books, blankets, and such... cutting off your financial stream.

Do you have to target me so deliberately?

"You, you you you..." The director's face turned red.

Wang Liang added fuel to the fire, "Heh heh~ Director, you wouldn't want the matter of kickbacks to reach the Principal, would you?"

Turning the tables!

The director's face turned completely cold, and his tone became menacing, "Are you guys saying you don't want to take the postgraduate entrance exam anymore? Don't want to graduate?"

Wang Liang and Liu Yu instantly fell silent.

No matter how much they wanted to curry favor with the great young master Xu, they had to consider their own standing.

It was clear they didn't have the guts to go head-to-head with the director.

The two simultaneously lowered their heads, not uttering a word.

Hmph!

"Disrespecting elders and threatening a teacher. This reason is enough to prevent all three of you from graduating. But I'm a kind person, so I'll give you a very light punishment.

You'll just spend the afternoon with me in the dorm, chatting and understanding the students' recent situation."

After speaking, he closed the dorm door and casually sat on Wang Liang's bed.

"What's this paper ball doing here?"

"Wang Liang, you need to pay attention to hygiene. What's that smell..."

(Whoosh~)

Gag! Gag!

Then I ask you, as a man, is this smell unfamiliar?

Why such a big reaction? Who are you trying to act innocent for?

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

"Xu Yi!"

"Wang Liang, picking up from last time. Fire Chronicle. Fire Warrior presents Marquis Uchiha. Itachi's Family. So, we're saying, what kind of noble rank and posthumous title should Uchiha Itachi have? This is difficult to comment on. Although he prevented internal strife in the country, but..."

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

"Xu Yi!"

"Xu Yi!"

"What is it, Director? We're discussing historical records."

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

Is that really historical records?

Wang Liang looked up and met the director's angry face, "Director, we're spending the afternoon in the dorm. The job fair will be over by then."

"I know~"

"???"

Wang Liang clenched his fists tightly, "Director, this is a life-changing opportunity for me. Please, be lenient."

"What does that have to do with me? I'm just doing my job."

Bastard!

Xu Yi's expression was calm, "Director, are you sure you want to keep us here all afternoon?"

"This is called chatting with you, pay attention to your wording."

"But I really need to go to the job fair."

"Hmph~ That's nonsense. All of us fourth-year students feel we absolutely must go to the job fair."

"No, I mean the job fair can't function without me. I'm one of the people in charge of recruitment."

"You?"

The director froze for a few seconds, then burst into laughter as if he'd heard a joke.

"I am Qin Shi Huang, give me 50 yuan and I'll help you achieve greatness."

Xu Yi shrugged, "Suit yourself. It won't end well when the HR manager comes looking for me later."

"Hahaha. You think you can scare me with that? As soon as school started, I investigated all the students' backgrounds. Yang De's background is the most significant among you."

Wang Liang and Liu Yu exchanged a look.

No wonder he's so stubborn, he's running on an outdated version!

Yang De has become the 'hero of the prison,' and next up is the Tier 0 character, Young Master Xu!

Bang, bang, bang~

The next second, a knock echoed.

All four looked up simultaneously, their expressions a complex mix of emotions.
