Under the urging of the instructor, the four quickly left the dormitory after getting dressed.
When they arrived at the sports field, they were startled.
The field was packed with high school students, all dressed in various school uniforms.
"Instructor, what’s going on here?" Song Bing asked.
Yang Kang calmly replied, "Oh, these are students from the nearby high schools. They are in their senior year, so they need some encouragement and motivation."
"Moreover, since Principal Xu has good relationships with principals of other high schools nearby, every year at this time, other high schools in the city organize their students to come to our school for a rally."
"This year, because of Wu Bin, a lot of journalists have come, and they might interview you later on. You should prepare in advance."
Wu Bin felt a headache coming on.
The thing he hated the most was these interviews.
The questions they asked had no substance, and more importantly, he hadn’t done anything remarkable.
However, Song Bing and the others were very excited.
This was a great opportunity to appear on television!
Yang Kang led the four to the viewing stands, and suddenly saw a man dressed in a suit, looking very masculine, standing backstage, holding a manuscript and reciting something.
Perhaps noticing someone watching him, the man suddenly looked up, locking eyes with Wu Bin.
Wu Bin was about to greet him, but the other man scoffed at him, his eyes full of contempt.
Wu Bin felt his anger rising immediately.
"Instructor, who is that guy? He seems very arrogant."
Following the direction Wu Bin was pointing, Yang Kang shivered with fright and hurriedly asked Wu Bin to lower his hand.
"Man, you really shouldn’t point like that."
"His name is Wang Xin, he’s the president of our university student union and also the young director of Wang Group. His father, Wang Minghai, is also one of the trustees of our school. His influence is considerable."
No wonder Yang Kang was so nervous, Wang Xin had quite a substantial background.
In Yang Kang’s words, because Wang Xin was studying at our university, it felt like he was studying at home. Even Xu Wenyao had to stand up and greet Wang Xin promptly when he saw him.
There was no choice, the family had money and power. When the university was first established, a third of the funds came from the Wang family.
Both morally and rationally, the university owed the Wang family.
So it was already giving the university great face that Wang Xin chose to study here instead of going abroad. Couldn’t you just practically worship him like a deity?
Wang Xin indeed did not disgrace the Wang family’s name.
Wang Xin was not only handsome but also represented our university in competitions, sweeping various awards.
Therefore, before Wu Bin came along, he was actually the face of our university. Countless girls threw themselves at him, hoping to be noticed by him and become a wealthy lady of the Wang family.
After hearing Yang Kang’s introduction, Song Bing and the others couldn’t help but sigh.
"Being born into the right family really is an art."
"Yes, if you’re born into the right family, you’re set for life."
"Your starting point is where others wish to end up."
Yang Kang felt more uncomfortable the more he listened.
"Enough, what are you all being sour about?"
"Wang Xin is also very accomplished, not the kind of ignorant rich kid you think."
Yang Kang then specifically said to Wu Bin, "Both of you are now prominent figures at our university. Principal Xu wants you two to become the twin pillars of our university, so you must get along well in the future and avoid any conflicts."
As he spoke, Yang Kang handed a speech manuscript to Wu Bin.
"Principal Xu has arranged everything. When the rally starts, you and Wang Xin will represent our university on stage. Just read from this manuscript when it’s your turn."
Wu Bin looked down at the manuscript and instantly frowned.
"Isn’t this speech a bit too fervent? It seems overly impassioned."
Yang Kang gave Wu Bin a glance.
"What do you know? A pep rally is meant to fire up these kids, how could it work if it isn’t a bit rousing?"
"You better get familiar with it quickly—the pep rally is about to start."
Wu Bin, left with no choice, began to carefully recite the speech.
Xu Wenyao, this old swindler, had tricked him again.
Such an important task of giving a speech, couldn’t he have mentioned it a bit earlier?
While Wu Bin was familiarizing himself with the script, Wang Xin walked over from a distance with his group.
Wang Xin threw a gray suit packed in a carry bag right in front of Wu Bin.
Wang Xin said contemptuously, "Didn’t anyone tell you to dress formally?"
"Are you planning to go on stage dressed like that?"
Wu Bin frowned, not quite understanding what Wang Xin meant.
"What’s wrong with the outfit I’m wearing?"
Though Wu Bin was not in a suit, he wore long pants and a long-sleeve shirt, which were quite proper.
Wu Bin believed he was dressed formally enough, but Wang Xin disagreed.
Pointing to the suit on the table, Wang Xin said, "Here’s a suit for you. Find somewhere to change into it. I don’t want to be giving a speech later alongside a country bumpkin. Remember, you represent the image of the Agricultural University."
After saying this, Wang Xin left with his team.
In just the time it took to say those few words, a stylist was even there to touch up his makeup; this was just ridiculous.
Xue Qiang, known for his straightforwardness, immediately got angry seeing Wang Xin being so rude to Wu Bin.
"Fuck, who does this kid think he is? Come on, let’s get him!"
Xue Qiang wrapped two cans of Hong Niu in a plastic bag and carried them, ready to fight Wang Xin.
Song Bing quickly stopped him.
"Have you lost your mind? What’s his status, and what’s yours? Do you want to get expelled and go deepen your understanding behind bars?"
Xue Qiang was still not convinced.
"So what do we do then, just let him insult Brother Wu like that?"
"If Brother Wu can endure it, I sure as hell can’t. If I let this go, can I even call myself a man?"
Wu Bin: ...
Indeed, Wu Bin couldn’t stand it.
He said to Xue Qiang, "It’s not that, Xue, curse him if you want, but don’t curse me."
"Besides, I think he’s pretty decent. Look at this suit, it’s Versace, a big brand."
When they heard it was a Versace suit, they quickly crowded around.
After all, this brand’s suits are quite expensive.
But when they closely examined the label, they instantly fell silent.
"Brother Wu, the label seems to say ’Fantasy’ not ’Versace.’"
Wu Bin was furious.
Damn it, I’m worth a few million now, and you give me a street stall quality suit?
How much more can you look down on me!
Enough is enough, no need to endure any further!
Wu Bin immediately opened the system mall, ready to give Wang Xin a bit of a system shock!
Mall, activate!
