Pocketing the Secondhand Smoke Money

"Uncle Yu, it's getting late, so I'm heading back to the dorm."

"Okay."

The school leaders all breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally leaving. If he stayed any longer, they were afraid something else might blow up.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Uncle Yu suddenly called out to Xu Yi, "Wait a moment!"

"Hm?"

"Xiao Yi, I'll go with you. I'll see if there's anything I can help with."

"Okay."

Xu Yi's expression remained unchanged, but he started to feel hopeful inside, wishing his roommates and the student union would step up. Contribute more emotional value.

Since it was the male dorm, Bingbing couldn't follow them anymore, and she was very disappointed. What had just happened was truly explosive, a news story she hadn't encountered in years of her career. She then arranged for an assistant to clip a hidden camera to her chest.

"Li Yi, stop lying there and come with us." The Principal was furious, kicking him coldly. If this idiot had done a background check beforehand, would they be in this situation now? Now that he was calling him along, if any further problems arose, he could still shift the blame onto him.

On the way, Uncle Yu asked with concern, "Xiao Yi, are any of the other students bullying you in the dorm?"

[Tense Emotion Value +20]

"No, they aren't. Our school has always strictly enforced these things, and the relationships between students are very harmonious. Besides, I'm always holding meetings, encouraging students to help each other. So the dorm is usually a small, united, and loving family." The Principal quickly said.

"Is that how it is, Xiao Yi?" Uncle Yu didn't respond to the Principal's words but turned to look at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi flinched, "I... I guess so?"

Principal: "???"

[Anger Value +100] [Tension Value +200]

Before long, they arrived at the dorm. As soon as the door opened, a thick cloud of smoke wafted out, very pungent.

Wang Liang's expression was as if he were floating in the clouds, completely high. Seeing Xu Yi enter, his eyes lit up.

"Xu Yi, did you smell smoke just now?"

"Um... it's a bit choking."

"Then quickly pay your secondhand smoke money."

Xu Yi: "..."

Everyone: "???"

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and pay me the secondhand smoke money!" Wang Liang slammed the ashtray hard and shouted.

[Tension Value +188] [Anger Value +66]

The Principal almost choked to death, "What the hell is secondhand smoke money? Why don't you just reach out and rob him?"

Uncle Yu glanced meaningfully at the Principal, "Haha, you're quite the capable Principal. Truly a small, united, and loving family that helps each other."

"Director, I..."

"You stand outside the door, don't go in."

"Okay, okay."

Just as Uncle Yu and Xu Yi entered, a sarcastic voice rang out.

"Oh, going to sell instant noodles for money again? If you keep selling them, you'll be the richest person in the city. Unlike me, who only lives off my parents' 5,000 yuan monthly allowance. By the way, Xu Yi, how much do your parents give you?"

"No way, no way. There really are parents who don't give their children money?"

"Liu Yu, stop talking. I'm an orphan, my father passed away."

"Ah? I'm sorry... I didn't mean to. If only your father had worn Nike earlier."

Everyone: "???"

[Anger Value +100] [Tension Value +100]

The Principal, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, was already crying.

Yu Shu's composure, honed by years of navigating officialdom, almost failed him.

"Lao Di, do you know what you're saying?"

Xu Yi just stared with red eyes, saying nothing.

As soon as he sat on the bed, another voice rang out.

"Xu Yi, did you pass the CET-6? I see you memorizing words every day."

"I passed."

"Huh? You passed?! How could you pass? What makes you think you could pass!"

"Ge bang dai! Ge bang dai! You can pass just by memorizing these words every day? How?!"

Hmph hmph... Passing doesn't do any good, you still can't find a job.

Unlike me, my parents arranged a job for me at the Education Bureau as soon as I graduated. While others are still stuck in the intense competition of exams, I've already secured my position.

[Tension +150]

[Anger +150]

Yu Shu looked at Yang De, his eyes flickering, but his tone was gentle, "Young student, what are your parents' names?"

"Old Man, who are you?"

"I'm Xu Yi's uncle."

"Oh, so you want to use your connections for your nephew?"

Yu Shu: "???"

"Sorry, my parents are very upright and never help people through the back door. If you want to give a gift, just give it to me directly."

"..."

"Good, good, good." Yu Shu was so angry he laughed. He had never seen someone attack the base so directly.

"Your parents certainly raised a good son."

"You don't say."

"You can~ You're getting sarcastic because you don't have money for gifts, learning all sorts of crooked ways every day."

Plop~

The Principal couldn't hold back any longer and kicked the door open.

"Liu Yu, shut your mouth!"

"You can~ Principal... Principal?!"
