Chapter 50 : The Tactics of a Petty Person
Chapter 50: The Tactics of a Petty Person
Chen Fan and Tian Yuan had only a passing acquaintance.
He didn't quite understand why this guy would come looking for him.
Tian Yuan smiled and said, "There's something I want to discuss with you."
"I want to ask you first, are you interested in joining the Student Union?"
"The Student Union?"
Chen Fan was a bit puzzled. Did this guy come over late at night just to invite him to join the Student Union?
It didn't seem like their relationship was that close yet.
"You just entered university, so you may not understand yet."
"In university, if you join the Student Union, there are quite a few benefits."
"After joining the Student Union, you'll not only be able to inspect dorms and grade other students, but you'll also get priority consideration for year-end student awards, scholarships, or party membership selections."
"When you graduate later, you'll also get priority recommendations for the best job positions..."
Tian Yuan smiled at Chen Fan, making sure he understood what he said.
Then the tone changed.
"If you're interested and really want to join the Student Union, I can help."
"Because right now I'm the vice president of the Student Union."
Tian Yuan was very confident, because he believed that unless someone was an idiot, no one could refuse the temptation of joining the Student Union.
Chen Fan looked at Tian Yuan and asked,
"Why is senior brother being so good to me?"
"There must be other conditions, right?"
"You see, talking to a smart person saves effort."
Tian Yuan chuckled.
"Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush and will get straight to the point."
"I like Su Ruochu, and I hope you can voluntarily withdraw."
Seeing Chen Fan about to speak, Tian Yuan raised his hand.
"Don't rush, let me finish speaking first."
"Ruochu and I grew up together since we were little, childhood sweethearts."
"Our parents all know each other, and they're both satisfied with each other's children."
"Moreover, my family's conditions are very good, a perfect match for Ruochu's family."
"These are facts that you can't compare with me."
"I know you like Su Ruochu, but you two are simply not suitable for each other."
"If you can voluntarily leave Ruochu, I can promise to let you join the Student Union, and I can guarantee you'll enjoy a series of benefits like awards, scholarships, and so on."
"Of course, there's one more thing. Once you join the Student Union, you'll be able to interact with more clubs and more beautiful girls. If you're willing, you can find an even prettier girlfriend anytime..."
Chen Fan looked at Tian Yuan prattling on.
He wasn't too surprised in his heart.
The last time they met, he could already see that this guy had feelings for Su Ruochu.
He just didn't expect that after only a few days, Tian Yuan would become so impatient and directly confront him face-to-face, telling him to withdraw.
Chen Fan smiled.
He didn't know if this guy was naive or just too arrogant.
"Sorry. I'm not interested in joining the Student Union."
"And I won't leave Su Ruochu."
The smile froze slightly on Tian Yuan's face.
"You don't want to think it over carefully?"
"No need to think about it."
"If there's nothing else, I'll head back to my dorm."
"Wait!"
Tian Yuan's voice suddenly turned cold as he stared at Chen Fan with an unfriendly gaze.
"Are you sure you've thought it through?"
"I advise you to think clearly. The Student Union has a lot of power."
Chen Fan smiled.
"Are you threatening me?"
Tian Yuan shook his head.
"I didn't say that. As a new first-year student, you'd better keep a low profile."
"You said you barely managed to get accepted here. If you make even a slight misstep and get a major demerit or disciplinary probation, your entire life could be ruined..."
Chen Fan shook his head.
"Not a bad threat."
"But...you've got the wrong person."
Saying that without greeting, he turned and entered the dorm building alone.
To be honest, for Chen Fan, getting into university was partly to give his parents an answer, but also to have four more years together with Su Ruochu.
As for the so-called university diploma, Chen Fan really never cared about it.
In his view, Tian Yuan's threats just now were actually quite laughable.
Back in the dorm room, the other five roommates hadn't returned yet.
After washing up, Chen Fan lay on the bed, continuing to think about how to best utilize the 50,000 yuan he had.
Actually, he could directly purchase a computer.
But buying a computer right after starting university seemed a bit too flashy.
Moreover, he didn't want to research his business startup in the dorm room.
If he really bought a computer, he'd probably have to go rent an apartment.
As he was thinking in a jumbled way, the dorm door was pushed open and Wu Di and the others barged in noisily.
"Fourth Brother, why are you in the dorm not watching the show?"
"Not feeling well?"
Wu Di asked with concern. Chen Fan shook his head and explained with a smile,
"Had something to do, went out for a bit."
Wu Di immediately revealed a knowing smile.
"Oh...I see, I see..."
"You went out to enjoy a private world for two."
Seeing his mischievous expression, Chen Fan really wanted to retort, "You understand nothing!"
At this moment, Luo Wenjie suddenly stood up from the lower bunk.
"Hey, Fourth Brother, you really missed out by not going to watch the show tonight."
"Let me tell you, tonight's show was really exciting."
"Wow, those dance students from the arts department, tsk tsk, those super short skirts, those tiny stockings, those figures twisting...one word, stunning!"
Then the third roommate, Sun Hao, shouted: "First Brother, you have to control Second Brother, this guy was hugging the telescope not letting others see..."
Luo Wenjie insisted firmly.
"I did it for your own good. If you all looked too much, could you still sleep at night?"
Then he changed the topic, "But brothers, through my research all night, I discovered that of the eight beautiful dancers, seven of them wore safety shorts, only one didn't...she was wearing a tiny white triangle."
"Ahhh, it feels so good to be trusted!"
"Damn! Too perverted. I can't stand him anymore. Everyone, beat him up!"
"Agreed..."
The few brothers surrounded and pinned Luo Wenjie down on the bed.
"Ahhh butterflies..."
Luo Wenjie's shrill scream echoed through the hallway.
Watching this scene, Chen Fan's anxiety from the whole night finally relaxed.
Having these good brothers was really nice.
Bang!
As they were frolicking, the dorm door was kicked open.
A few male students walked in briskly, one even holding a notebook looking very serious.
"What time is it. Still making noise?"
"Don't you know the lights-out bugle is about to sound?"
Wu Di and the others hurriedly got up from the bed, looking at these strangers with some puzzlement.
"They're from the Student Union."
Wu Di said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the battered Luo Wenjie lying on the bed finally hurried to stand up while pulling up his pants.
As soon as the Student Union members entered the room, they frowned.
"What's that smell? So stinky?"
"Look at how dirty this room is, like a doghouse. Didn't you learn room cleaning during military training?"
"Think that just because military training is over today, you can slack off?"
One arrogant senior from the Student Union immediately launched into a torrent of criticism at the group.
Looking up, he noticed Chen Fan lying on the upper bunk.
This senior suddenly frowned, pointing his finger.
"Who let you go up there?"
"Get down here."
