Chapter 356 - The Evil Duan Lang Breaks the White Lotus’s Facade
Chapter 356: The Evil Duan Lang Breaks the White Lotus’s Facade
Beijing University’s auditorium…
The school leaders knew that the assembly was boring and wanted to come up with something new, so they specially invited Duan Linbai. The students’ response was very enthusiastic, and he was purely here to annoy Fu Chen.
Our two companies are cooperating, but this fellow pushed all the work to me and ran off to make out with Little Sister-in-Law.
You can’t bully a single dog like this.
Fu Chen had studied at a university overseas, so he had nothing to do with domestic universities. Even if there were events, he wouldn’t be invited. Besides, a certain someone didn’t like to show up in public either.
You can only meet her secretly, but look at me…
I came openly.
A certain someone smiled smugly.
At this moment, the new student representative was giving a speech. Next, the school would arrange for the top students to go on stage to receive monetary awards. This was the school’s way of motivating the students.
The scholarships this time were provided by the Duan Group. The Duan family had opened a Thousand Treasures Mall near the school, and most of the customers were students. This was also a disguised advertisement.
Duan Linbai was a businessman after all, so he still had to consider his interests when doing things.
Although many people in university were already busy eating, drinking, and socializing, Beijing University paid more attention to academics and hoped that students would pay more attention to their studies.
“Awards?” Duan Linbai became excited when he heard this.
He clearly remembered that Song Fengwan was the top student in the art department, which was another reason why he sponsored the award money.
Behind them were students from the student council arranging the award ceremony later.
The awards had all been prepared and placed on the table beforehand. Only the names of the departments were written in gold lettering, and the one in front of Duan Linbai was for the civil engineering school.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the certificates in front of the various school leaders. When he saw the art school one, he suddenly smiled.
I have to take a picture later for remembrance.
This time, he could agitate Fu Chen. When he thought of Fu Chen’s constipated face, he felt pleased.
After the new student representative’s speech ended, the host held the microphone. “… Thank you for your wonderful speech. Next, we invite the new student representatives from each department to go on stage. The awards this time are provided by the Duan Group. Thank you, Mr. Duan, for providing us with generous awards…”
Although they were representatives, everyone had just started school, and it was based on their college entrance examination results. The people going on stage were all ranked first in their respective departments.
“Wanwan, it’s time for you to go up.” Hu Xinyue moved her legs to let her go out.
“I’m so envious. There’s even award money.”
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go.”
…
The top student in the art school was from the Chinese art class, and all her classmates were proud of her.
Song Fengwan didn’t receive any notice of going on stage. She turned her head to look at her class’s counselor. The senior was sitting at the side, playing with her phone, and didn’t look at her.
At this moment, Wu Yuxin, who was in the art design class not far away, stood up.
There was an uproar in the surroundings.
“What the hell? Why is she going up? Isn’t it the top student of each department? It’s like this for all the others. Why isn’t our department the same?”
“There’s definitely something shady going on. It shouldn’t be her turn no matter what. Who does she think she is?”
Every classmate naturally protected their own classmates, and someone immediately retorted, “The school never explicitly stated that the department representatives are the top students. Why does it have to be Song Fengwan?”
“Yuxin isn’t bad either. She has many national awards, and she’s the only new student selected for the Welcome Gala. She can represent our department.”
When Hu Xinyue heard this, she became anxious. “You can represent our department just by being chosen for the Welcome Gala? They’re looking at the college entrance exam results!”
“We’re already in university. Why talk about the college entrance exam still?”
“No wonder she doesn’t hang out with your group of roommates. Did you guys ostracize her together?”
…
Hu Xinyue was agitated and almost jumped up.
“She’s the one keeping to herself. Who’s ostracizing her? Who’s spouting nonsense?”
Just then, the counselor looked over, and Song Fengwan hurriedly held her down.
Who spread this kind of thing? If someone hadn’t deliberately revealed the matter in their dorm room, how could such rumors spread? Although Hu Xinyue was big-hearted, she wasn’t stupid.
Many students nearby were whispering.
“When we went to the military training, she stayed in the school. I heard that she has a good relationship with the department’s teachers. Something is likely going on behind the scenes.”
“I saw her walking with people from the student council last night. She will definitely join the student council.”
“What can we do? This person has the advantage of being pretty.”
…
Song Fengwan narrowed her eyes and watched as Wu Yuxin walked to the stage. She was dressed very beautifully today. After half a month of training, everyone couldn’t hide their fatigue. Only her face was like a spring breeze, and she was wearing high-heels with a short skirt. When she went on stage, she caused many boys to cheer.
The leaders on the stage were all in charge of politics at the school level. But it was the first time they were meeting the students, and they couldn’t match their faces to any names. So naturally, they didn’t know about the underhanded manipulation.
The students stood in order, and only then did the host invite the leaders to present the awards.
Duan Linbai bit his lip and switched places with the leader holding the certificate and award for the art school.
More than a thousand students saw Duan Linbai change his position.
When the students went on stage, Wu Yuxin stood in front of him, and the audience exploded…
“F*ck, our Young Master Duan likes this type? My god, what is he doing? Does he like her?”
“He even deliberately changed his position. He obviously wants to get close to the beauty. Is Wu Yuxin going to soar?”
“F*ck, if Duan Linbai takes a liking to her, why even go to school anymore?”
…
While everyone’s gaze was envious, Hu Xinyue exploded. “What kind of taste does Duan Linbai have? If he really likes Wu Yuxin, I’ll immediately…”
Song Fengwan turned her head to look at her. “What are you going to do?”
“Block his Weibo account! Don’t pay attention to him anymore!”
Song Fengwan laughed out loud. Block his Weibo?
This move is really impressive…
…
At this moment, on the stage, Wu Yuxin stood in front of Duan Linbai with a blushing face.
She just wanted to be in the limelight at the new student assembly. If Duan Linbai liked her…
Some school leaders at the side also thought that Duan Linbai was interested in her. After all, she was certainly beautiful.
It was just that in a sacred place like school, some people were dissatisfied with his behavior of using the pretext to get close to a girl.
The award ceremony went by very quickly. On the red envelopes with the award money, there was only the name of the departments. Duan Linbai lowered his head and leaned forward. “What’s your name?”
The surroundings were too noisy, and the applause was thunderous. Duan Linbai had no choice but to lower his head and lean forward to hear her.
“My name is Wu Yuxin.”
“Student Wu Yuxin, congratulations.” Duan Linbai passed the award over and turned around elegantly.
Wu Yuxin’s heart was pounding wildly.
It was not unreasonable for Duan Linbai to have many fans. His facial features were exquisite to the point of being impeccable, and he came from a classical music background and had a superior temperament. He was elegant and calm like peach blossoms in spring.
While she walked to her seat, her mind was in a daze, and her face was blood red with embarrassment.
As soon as she returned, she was surrounded by a group of people. They were all asking her how it felt to be so close with Duan Linbai.
“She snatched someone else’s opportunity and still acts so high-profile. She’s really shameless.” Hu Xinyue was fuming. “Wanwan, why aren’t you angry? Don’t you know the dean? Go complain about her.”
Song Fengwan smiled lightly and didn’t say anything.
“Duan Linbai is really f*cking blind!
“I’m going to block him now! To think that I even spent money to join his official fan club. My brain must have been kicked by a donkey.”
…
Duan Linbai narrowed his eyes and took a sip of hot tea.
F*ck! I sponsored these awards for Little Sister-in-Law.
Before, Duan Linbai had given Song Fengwan a red packet, but she hadn’t accepted it. This could have been his way to celebrate her successful enrollment without her rejecting it.
Moreover, the award money inside was double that of other departments.
How did it end up in her hands?
I came here for Little Sister-in-Law. How can I let someone bully my sister-in-law in front of me?
“… Next, let us welcome Mr. Duan Linbai to speak. Everyone, please give him a warm round of applause.” The host finally cued Duan Linbai.
He got up, reached out to straighten his suit collar, and walked to the podium.
Thunderous applause came from the audience. Instead of taking out the speech his secretary had prepared, he coughed twice…
“First of all, I’m very honored to be able to attend the new student ceremony of Beijing University. I was also a student of Beijing University. When I see you, it’s like seeing my past self…”
Song Fengwan listened to his speech. This was the first time she had seen Duan Linbai speak so formally.
He was usually sloppy, unlike someone who had studied music.
At this moment, he was handsome and elegant, worthy of being called a young master.
“… At the end of my speech, I have a few words to say to Student Wu Yuxin, who went on stage to receive the award just now.” She was a popular figure on the school forum recently, and all the new students knew her.
Everyone became excited.
“F*ck, he’s not going to confess, is he?”
“So fierce?”
…
Wu Yuxin instantly became the focus of everyone’s attention. She had never been paid so much attention in her life. She blushed and didn’t dare to look at Duan Linbai, her heart pounding like a deer.
“The awards were provided by our company. In order to reward the top student of each department, when preparing the awards, I specially got my assistant to check the information of the top students. I’ve seen them all. The people on stage earlier were all familiar faces.
“Why did the photo and the name of the award winner of the art school not match what I saw?
“Did my people make a mistake in their work? Or did the school’s people make a mistake in their work?!
“Why did an unrelated person come up to receive the award, but no one stopped her?!”
Wu Yuxin had been jumping for joy just now. But now, she was drenched in cold water.
Her heart was ice-cold.
Duan Linbai’s assistant, Little Jiang, was standing backstage with a dumbfounded expression. When did I help him check the information?
Isn’t Little Boss spouting nonsense in all seriousness?
