Chapter 410: We’re All Men So It’s Understandable

Pan Zhaodi was very efficient. After Su Yang suggested buying a car, she had already bought a black Mercedes-Benz as their company car and even hung their license plate.

Hence, Su Yang did not need to take a taxi to travel anymore.

When they arrived at the train station, Pan Zhaodi stopped the car and opened the door for Su Yang. Her professionalism as a top secretary was extremely eye-catching.

The other onlookers at the train station had all turned to look at them.

Everyone was envious when they looked at the luxurious Mercedes-Benz and Pan Zhaodi’s beautiful figure.

“Another female secretary who has been seduced by the boss.”

“F*ck. This boss is so lucky.”

“Rich *ss…”

“That secretary is so pretty.”

Just when everyone was feeling envious and jealous, Su Yang got out of the car. He was wearing a simple T-shirt and flip-flops which made him seem like any common bystander.

He did not have the elegance of a businessman, nor did he radiate any brilliance. He looked like a student, a student who was too lazy to tidy himself up in fact.

When the onlookers saw him get out of the car, they were stunned. However, after a while, they became even more envious.

“F*ck, it must feel good to be reincarnated into a wealthy family!”

“Won it all the way.”

“He hasn’t got the style at all, could he be an illegitimate son of some mafia?”

“I envy him…”

It was a pity that Su Yang did not know what they were thinking. If he had known, he would definitely spit on their faces with words like, “I’ve gotten to this point through hard work! How shameless could you be! Can you find out more about the facts before asking?”

However, he obviously did not know what the onlookers were thinking. He only knew that once he got out of the car, [Heaven’s Eyes] kept flicking on the window. He counted casually, and felt that there were more than 20 people secretly sizing him up.

He had just gotten out of the car and was confused about everything that was going on since he was completely unaware. ‘What’s wrong? Have I become more handsome today?’

Su Yang could only temporarily close [Heaven’s Eyes] since the windows kept popping out and he found it annoying.

Then, he looked around and saw a group of familiar people waiting at the exit of the train station with a small table and a banner [Shanghai University’s New Student Reception Center].

‘Li Runze, Qu Xuan and Xu Lu are all here.

‘There’s actually so many familiar faces?

‘Are all of them so free?’

While thinking, Su Yang told Pan Zhaodi to go back and get some rest first. He would contact her when he needed a ride again.

Pan Zhaodi nodded. Just as she was about to turn around, she suddenly stopped and said to Su Yang, “Mr. Su, your status is different now. It’s not good for you to always stay in this old neighborhood.”

“Erm,” Su Yang replied. “I think it’s alright. I’m quite comfortable here.”

Pan Zhaodi shook her head. “It’s not a good place to stay, whether it’s about privacy or safety.”

When she saw that Su Yang did not want to accept her advice, she added, “It’s mainly because your Ferrari… has no place to park.”

Su Yang was speechless…

‘This is indeed a problem.’

He thought about it and said, “Then I’ll leave it to you to make the arrangements, so long as it’s not too far away from my school. It’s best if I can stay somewhere nearby my school.”

Mrs. Zhao nodded. “Understood, Mr. Su.”

After they were done chatting, Pan Zhaodi started the car and drove off. Su Yang, on the other hand, walked slowly towards the reception area for the new students.

When they arrived at the reception area, Su Yang patted Li Runze’s shoulder and greeted a few familiar faces. “You’re all here.”

They turned around when they heard Su Yang’s voice. Li Runze nodded casually. “Morning.”

Qu Xuan smiled wickedly and said, “Mr. President, what a coincidence.”

When Xu Lu saw Su Yang, she was pleasantly surprised. “Su Yang, you’re here too? I didn’t see you on the list.”

Su Yang replied, “I’m here on behalf of Chu Xia.”

Xu Lu nodded in enlightenment. She looked at the name list in her hand and seemed to have thought of something. She said, “She’s your class secretary, right?”

Su Yang did not deny it, but added instead, “We’re also very good friends.”

Xu Lu took a glance at Su Yang and seemed to have understood what he meant. However, she did not reply.

After that, a few unfamiliar people started chatting with each other because of Su Yang’s arrival.

Su Yang finally understood what was going on.

‘The Student Union of Shanghai University is mainly the ones responsible for welcoming the new students with volunteers as assistants. They are then divided into two batches, one batch stays at the train station while the other stays at the airport.

‘Actually, although it’s said to be a reception for new students, since most of the students at Shanghai University were students from within the city, their duties were relatively easier. They wouldn’t have any work to do usually, all they need to do is to pull up a banner at both locations. When the new students arrived, they would help them carry their luggage to the school bus and send them to school when it was time.

‘Moreover, this isn’t a compulsory thing for new students to comply with.

‘Normally speaking, if the new students had their own things to do or if they did not want to wait for the bus to arrive, they could go to school on their own. Therefore, there isn’t a list of new students at the reception area, it’s just a matter of luck.

‘Xu Lu is the vice president of the Student Union’s Art Department and is the person in charge of picking up new students at the train station this morning. Qu Xuan, Chu Xia and Li Runze are also members of the Student Union.

‘Qu Xuan is from the Disciplinary Department. Although… I can’t understand why is such a sloppy person from the disciplinary department. What right does he have?

‘Li Runze is from the Learning Department, I’ve found out that it doesn’t take a learned person to enter that department. Rather, It’s more like the secretarial department for the head secretary of the Youth Organization…

‘Chuxia is the Student Union’s Organizational Department. However, according to Xu Lu, she is very likely to be the assistant secretary this year or be transferred to another department as their secretary instead.’

Su Yang was confused everytime he thought about this. He did not know much about the Student Union. He did not feel that it was interesting so he chose not to participate in it. All he needed to know that they were from the Student Union anyway.

Very soon, other than a few familiar faces, the other second and third-year volunteers had also arrived. Su Yang realized that most of the volunteers were boys with only 1 or 2 girls.

Very soon, Su Yang found out about the gender ratio. ‘Many male volunteers are being so enthusiastic about this because they wanted to get in touch with the first-year female students…

‘These are guys who have been desperately wishing to leave their single days by getting a girlfriend as soon as possible or even leave a deep impression with a girl, all so that they can welcome the new year.

‘To them, as long as they showed a little more enthusiasm and helped their female juniors today, they might just get a girlfriend.’

Therefore, when Su Yang saw them that day, all of them were dressed like gentlemen. None of them were wearing T-shirts and slippers as Su Yang had.

‘Even Li Runze is wearing a checkered shirt.

‘But I seem to remember him always dressed like this…’

After chatting with a few people and getting to know each other better, Qu Xuan crept up to Su Yang and asked, “Mr. President, are you here to attract some girls today?”

Su Yang was confused.

“No, I’m here to replace Chu Xia.”

Qu Xuan nudged Su Yang gently with his elbow and blinked his eyes. “Don’t worry. We’re all men so it’s understandable. I won’t tell my sister.”

Su Yang was still confused.

‘What does this have to do with your sister?’

Just when Su Yang could not understand Qu Xuan’s weird thoughts, there was a commotion at the reception. A few new students had arrived.

Su Yang looked in the direction of the voice and saw a few honest-looking boys walking over. They looked like they came from the countryside. Their skin was dark and they looked rustic.

The new students arrived at the reception area. They looked up at the banner and asked carefully, “Hello, is this the reception area for the new students of Shanghai University?”

Seeing that it was a few boys, the volunteers who came to help were not interested. Xu Lu, on the other hand, answered them enthusiastically. She explained Shanghai University to them and explained the procedure of the reception.

The boys nodded although they did not seem to fully understand what had been said. Then, they looked at the less enthusiastic seniors in confusion.

Su Yang noticed this and hurried over as he smiled. “I’ll bring you guys to the bus.”

“Oh, okay.” The new students quickly nodded.

Su Yang then called for Qu Xuan and Li Runze to help move the new students’ luggage onto the bus.

Noticing Su Yang’s wave, Li Runze stood up slowly and expressionlessly helped the freshmen pick up their luggage before following Su Yang.

On the other hand, Qu Xuan was a little reluctant. For a playboy like him, it was obvious that he was there to welcome new female students. However, as his president and the ‘brother-in-law’ in his heart, Su Yang’s words were still effective. He hesitated for a moment before picking up the new students’ luggage resentfully and carried them to the bus with Su Yang.

Among the three of them, one was silent while the other looked unhappy. Hence the new students did not dare to interact with either of them and could only chat softly with Su Yang.

Su Yang treated them warmly and answered their questions with a smile.

When he saw them, Su Yang actually felt very close to them. That was because he recalled the moment when he came to Shanghai from the village last year. He was also so down to earth, honest, and cautious.

Su Yang led the freshmen onto the bus and helped them set up their luggage. He even added a few of their WeChat accounts so that they could contact him if they needed anything. Then, he received a bunch of thanks from them.

‘Helping them seems much more comfortable than obtaining [Random Points].

‘Of course… it would be better if there were [Random Points].’

After settling the rookies, the three of them chatted as they returned to the reception area. However, halfway there, they saw that the reception area was as lively as a market.

Qu Xuan took a glance from afar and slapped his thigh. “Oh no! Someone beat me to it!”

As he said that, he rushed over.

Su Yang and Li Runze exchanged glances. They could both tell that the other party was speechless…

However, it was not just Shanghai University that had the culture of getting to know the new female students while using welcoming them as an excuse. It happened in every school.

Furthermore, these seniors were merely getting to know their juniors earlier. Nobody could interfere with them since it wasn’t being done forcefully.

However, people like Su Yang and Li Runze, who did not have such thoughts, were different. It was ironic.

The two walked to the reception area and realized that there was indeed a group of new female students. They might not be very pretty, but at least they looked young and fresh. They had the innocence and curiosity of someone who had just entered university.

Of course, many of the girls had their parents by their side, which made this group of young men even more enthusiastic. After all, everyone knew that modern girls were easy to coax these days, but mother-in-laws were very hard to please. If they managed to leave a good impression beforehand, they might be able to turn the tables.

‘Kids nowadays are so naive…’

Before long, everyone had left. Although Qu Xuan ran fast, he was still too late and did not get the chance to perform.

He looked at the empty reception area and complained to Su Yang, “Mr. President, it’s all your fault. My plan to woo a female junior failed before it even started.”

Just as he was saying that, a playful female voice suddenly came from behind him. “Hi, is this the reception area for the new students at Shanghai University?”
