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

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

"It's not necessary, I can get into Furun Group easily." Xu Yi could only explain again.

Oh ho!

Wang Liang and Liu Yu's eyes widened simultaneously.

Young Master Xu is quite arrogant.

He can get in easily~~ (sarcastically)

Xu Yi shrugged, not offering further explanation.

Little brats, you have no idea about my background.

This is good. When you find out later, it'll be another wave of Emotion Points.

Just as Xu Yi began to ponder how to extract Emotion Points from the two of them, 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 recruitment fair at the school. The Group has given our school over fifty internal quota spots."

Over fifty?!

Both of them gasped in unison.

Don't think fifty is a small number.

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

So, fifty internal quota spots is 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 five or six."

Xu Yi's heart couldn't help but feel a little warm. It was obvious that Li Wen was being extra generous because of him.

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

Li Wen: [Xiao Yi, I've sent the General Manager of the Human Resources Department to recruit at your school. The Principal has already agreed to let you have guaranteed postgraduate admission unconditionally.]

[You're familiar with the school, help the manager screen employees. This can also be considered building your team in advance.]

"Young Master Xu, stop playing with your phone, hurry up and go. If we're any later, the spots will be snatched up." Wang Liang urged.

"Okay."

Just as Xu Yi reached the doorway, the Director blocked him with his arm.

"You don't need to go."

"Huh?"

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

Xu Yi frowned.

Wang Liang and the other two were also taken aback.

This statement, for a young man, was extremely high praise.

Was the Director praising him or mocking him?

The Director continued, "So, you'd better stay and clean the dormitory, and then focus on your studies and prepare for the postgraduate entrance exam."

Understood, the Director was deliberately targeting him.

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

Is the Director this stubborn?

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

He's a Director!

Even the Principal would have to be respectful.

In fact, the Director truly didn't know.

Because his rank wasn't high enough, the leaders who accompanied the Director during inspections were all Vice-Principal level and 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, with Xu Yi's background, he could completely slack off. But he's actively participating in the recruitment fair. This is very inspiring."

Wang Liang's words were practically a hint, but the stubborn Director merely sneered.

"Alright, I know you two are close. Him slacking off? Not even trying is already bad enough."

"Director, you..."

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

He suddenly raised his voice, "Director, this is too much! How can you say that about Xu Yi?"

Wang Liang glanced at Liu Yu and immediately understood everything.

You dog! You beat me to it.

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

Wang Liang chimed in, unwilling to let Liu Yu take all the credit.

The director looked at the two of them, bewildered.

Something's not right!

These two bastards aren't joining the pile-on. There's something going on!

But before he could ponder, Xu Yi launched a direct attack, "Director, I only reported you for forcing students to buy books, blankets, and the like... cutting off your financial path.

Do you really have to target me like this?

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

Wang Liang continued to twist the knife, "Heh heh~ Director, you wouldn't want the principal to find out about the kickbacks, would you?"

Turning the tables!

The director's face turned completely cold, and his tone became menacing, "Don't you want to get into graduate school? Don't you want to graduate?"

Wang Liang and Liu Yu immediately fell silent.

No matter how much they wanted to curry favor with the wealthy Xu Yi, they had to consider their own standing.

It was clear they didn't have the guts to openly confront the director.

The two of them lowered their heads simultaneously, saying nothing.

Hmph!

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

You'll just sit with me in the dorm for the afternoon, and we'll have a heart-to-heart talk to understand the students' recent situations."

With that, he closed the dorm room door and casually sat on Wang Liang's bed.

"Why are there still paper balls here?"

"Wang Liang, you need to be more mindful of hygiene. What's that smell..."

(Whoosh whoosh whoosh~)

Gag Gag

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

Why such a strong reaction? Who are you trying to impress with this act of purity?

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

"Xu Yi!"

"Wang Liang, picking up where we left off. Records of the Grand Historian. The Biography of Wu Zixu. So, we were discussing what kind of noble title and posthumous name Wu Zixu should have. It's hard to say. Although he prevented internal strife in the state..."

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

"Xu Yi!"

"Xu Yi!"

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

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

Is that really history?

Wang Liang looked up, meeting the director's furious gaze, "Director, if we're stuck in the dorm all afternoon, the job fair will be over."

"I know~"

"???"

Wang Liang clenched his fists, "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."

Beast!

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

"This is called having a heart-to-heart talk, mind your wording."

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

"Hmph~ That's stating the obvious. All of us seniors feel we must go to the job fair."

"No, I mean the job fair can't do without me. I'm also part of the recruitment team."

"You?"

The Director was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into laughter as if he'd heard a joke.

"I am Qin Shi Huang, give me 50 yuan via V, and help me achieve great things."

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 considered the biggest among you."

Wang Liang and Liu Yu exchanged glances.

No wonder he's so stubborn, it turns out his version hasn't been updated yet!

Yang De has become a 'hero in prison', and the next one to appear is the Tier 0 of this version, the great young master Xu!

Bang bang bang~

The next second, there was a knock on the door.

All four looked up simultaneously, their expressions a mixture of complexity.
