Chapter 244: I’m Very Generous to My People
Factory Director Tian boasted for a while, then cleared his throat. “Of course, Old Chen’s reminder also helped. A good man needs three helpers—you two are both my capable assistants!”
Principal Chen really wanted to carve the words “shameless” onto his face!
But he couldn’t be bothered to argue. After all, they shared the same goal—to make life better for the people of An County.
He said to Su He, “Little Su, I heard Peking University isn’t far from here. Since we don’t have any plans this afternoon, let’s go take a look.”
Although Su He had grown quickly and her career was going smoothly, Principal Chen still hoped she would pursue further studies at a university.
He believed that as one of the top institutions in China, Peking University’s rich heritage would surely move her.
He thought he’d need to persuade her, but to his surprise, Su He agreed readily. “Sure, just in time to walk off the meal.”
The three chatted and laughed along the way. Especially Factory Director Tian—after a few drinks and being in a good mood, he just wouldn’t stop talking.
After about twenty minutes, they arrived at Peking University.
It was the start of the school term, and the campus was bustling with people.
Welcome banners from various departments were eye-catching, and many service desks even had loudspeakers.
Numerous student clubs were also promoting themselves, hoping to recruit new members.
Factory Director Tian sighed with emotion. “As expected of a top university in our country—just look at this atmosphere! If I were a few decades younger, I’d definitely study here!”
Principal Chen echoed a few sentiments. After a couple more words, they suddenly realized Su He was gone.
Turning around, they saw her standing at the Philosophy Department’s service desk, chatting away.
“Senior, no wonder everyone says the Philosophy Department is the face of our university. I’ve looked around, and our welcome slogan is the most distinctive.
You must be a student union leader, right? I can tell you’ve got leadership qualities at a glance…”
The male student, Tang Zhe, was practically dazzled by her flattery!
One reason was that Su He was eloquent; the other was that she was beautiful.
Who wouldn’t feel pleased being praised like that by a pretty junior girl?!
“Senior, why is there only you at the desk? Can you manage? Do you need me to help?”
Tang Zhe quickly said, “There were three of us, but the other two went to handle something. Junior, I’d really appreciate your help!”
He was more than happy—partly because he was indeed overwhelmed, and partly because who would refuse a pretty girl?
He even felt a little smug—could this junior have taken a liking to him?
So Su He sat down and began helping register new students.
Principal Chen: “…”
Factory Director Tian: “…”
Do you even know who you are?!
Is it appropriate for you to be sitting there?!
Aren’t you even a little guilty?
And why are you helping with registration? Are you that bored?!
Su He blinked at them, and the two old men were speechless. They simply ignored her and went off to tour the campus.
By the time they came back, Su He was already chatting merrily with members of several clubs.
Anyone who didn’t know better would think she belonged to one of the clubs!
Didn’t they even think to ask which department she was from?
To be fair, it wasn’t the clubs’ fault—they had seen Su He working at the Philosophy Department desk and naturally assumed she was a student there.
Seeing that she was pretty and interesting to talk to, they all wanted her to join their clubs.
Luo Xiaoling and her roommate Zhao Hong had just entered campus from outside when they spotted Su He in the crowd.
The thing about Su He was—wherever she went, she naturally became the center of attention.
Luo Xiaoling’s eyes nearly popped out!
Why is this lunatic Su He here?!
And how is she so familiar with the club members?
Just as she stood there in shock, Su He suddenly noticed her and waved. “Cousin Xiaoling! Cousin Xiaoling!”
Luo Xiaoling jolted and instinctively wanted to run.
Before she could move, Zhao Hong excitedly said, “Xiaoling, she’s calling you, right?
Your cousin is so pretty! She even knows people from the clubs—you wanted to join the drama club, right? Perfect, have your cousin help you put in a good word!”
As she spoke, Zhao Hong pulled Luo Xiaoling over.
Luo Xiaoling was on the verge of tears!
That lunatic Su He never does anything without a motive—this couldn’t be good!
But with so many people watching, she had no choice but to steel herself and walk over.
Su He grabbed her arm. “Cousin, I looked all over for you just now—where did you go?
Come, let me introduce you to these seniors. Peking University really lives up to its name—these seniors are all so talented!
If I weren’t still too young to attend university, I’d definitely stay here and not leave…”
Tang Zhe and the others were stunned. “Y-you’re not a student here?”
Su He nodded. “Mm, my cousin studies here. I’m still a bit young, so I plan to gain more experience before going to university.”
Everyone: “…”
Su He continued, “No wonder Peking University is known as the top university in China. Even after such a short time, I’m deeply impressed by all of you seniors!
Since I rarely get the chance to visit the capital, could you write me a few messages and sign your names?”
As she spoke, she took out a small notebook, looking like an eager little fan.
These college students had never encountered anything like this before. Before they knew it, they had all written messages and signed their names.
Su He carefully tucked the notebook into her bag, then said, “I’ve taken up so much of your time—I feel quite embarrassed. I’m currently the factory director’s secretary at An County Food Factory. In a couple of days, I’ll mail you some instant noodles produced by our factory as a small token of appreciation.
Also, please take care of my cousin. If anything comes up, feel free to write to me…”
Luo Xiaoling: “…”
So you came all this way just to plant informants to keep an eye on me?
And while you were at it, you promoted your instant noodles!
Su He, you’re really something!
At this rate, you’ll end up like that Principal Chen—completely bald!
After exchanging more polite words, Su He led Luo Xiaoling aside.
Luo Xiaoling gritted her teeth. “Su He, what exactly are you trying to do?! You’re making such a big scene—aren’t you afraid Shen Ruyi will find out we’re in contact?”
“So what if she finds out? Just push everything onto me. It’ll even give you a chance to report back to her and show your loyalty.
Oh, by the way, my dear Xiaoling, let me tell you some good news.
I’ve recently acknowledged two station directors as my uncles, and I’ve also gained an uncle from the Foreign Trade Department. So don’t get confused and pick the wrong side, alright?”
Luo Xiaoling was both shocked and furious.
Shocked that Su He kept gaining “relatives” everywhere—what exactly did those people see in her?!
Furious because Su He was clearly threatening her.
Before she could respond, Su He took out a bottle of imported perfume from her bag. “Xiaoling, this is for you!
If you run into any difficulties in the future, just tell me. If you want to join any club, I can go speak for you right now. I’m not like Shen Ruyi—I’ve always been generous to my people…”
Luo Xiaoling’s nose nearly twisted in anger!
Who’s your subordinate?!
Have you no shame at all?!
