School Council

Jiujiang City, by the West Lake.

The moonlight sprinkled on the lake water, shimmering. The willow trees by the lake had sprouted, and their branches were rustling in the wind.

A black Rolls-Royce drove along the lakeside and entered a manor. In addition to the Rolls-Royce, there were all kinds of luxury cars there.

Cheng Liang’s outer walls were painted milky white, and he had planted all kinds of precious green plants inside. He also had an independent greenhouse system.

!!

The quaint little garden next to the lake was packed with bodyguards in suits. Their eyes were sharp, and even a fly would find it difficult to fly into the place they were guarding.

In the middle hall, a round mahogany table was filled with people. Their faces were thin and their hair was white, making it hard to tell which century they were from.

“Chen Yuan is too much. Not only did he ask Lu Benwei to graduate freely, but he also rejected our arrangement for Zhou Qingfeng,” an old man from the eastern side spoke first. His voice was filled with anger.

“Chen Yuan just submitted an application. He wants Chu Yan to graduate early.”

“Does he really think that he founded Zhejiang Hunter University?”

One by one, the old men said angrily, their drooping facial muscles trembling violently as their mouths opened and close.

Among them, the old man who was complaining about Chen Yuan’s suggestion for Chu Yan to graduate early held a document. It was the information that Chen Yuan had applied for early graduation for Chu Yan.

At this moment, a bodyguard behind the old man leaned over and whispered a few words into his ear. The old man’s eyes widened instantly, attracting everyone’s attention.

“What’s wrong, Patriarch Liu?”

“The Ministry of Education has already approved it and urged us to submit it as soon as possible,” said the Liu family’s master.

“What?”

Everyone was very puzzled.

“I remember Chu Yan’s early graduation application was submitted this afternoon, right?”

“Chen Yuan submitted it without us knowing?”

The crowd discussed at once, their voices rising and falling.

The old man sitting in the main seat slowly opened his eyes.

“Everyone, be quiet. Don’t forget the purpose of our visit. Chu Yan is just a small character.”

He was the highest director of the Zhejiang Hunter University and came from a mysterious city. Even the other people in the room only knew that his surname was Yan.

When everyone heard President Yan’s words, they all fell silent.

“President Yan, Chen Yuan has been doing a good job all these years. We really can’t think of a reason to impeach him,” someone said.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately said in a cold and disdainful voice, “He did a good job, but he’s not very obedient. All these years, he’s been trying to get rid of our control over the school. We’ve spent so much money on education. It’s fine if the Dragon Kingdom wants a share, but Chen Yuan wants to strip us of our power!” someone was very angry and said in a hoarse voice.

“If we continue to let this go, we have to think of a countermeasure.”

“It was okay for the first two years,” someone else said, “But we really can’t find a reason this year.”

“I don’t know where Lu Benwei came from. I’ve never heard of a first-year student winning the National Class Tournament!”

The atmosphere in the middle hall was frighteningly cold.

“I have to say, Chen Yuan’s recruitment of Lu Benwei for the school has made the school cough up blood.”

President Yan stood up and placed his two large hands on the table as if he was going to swallow the world.

“But he violated our interests and tried to separate us from Zhejiang Hunter University. We have to kick him out!”

“But… Now that you’ve put it this way, it seems that we can’t do anything to Chen Yuan,” someone stammered.

“You don’t have to worry about that.” President Yan straightened his back and clapped his hands in the direction of the door. “Vice Principal Sun, please come in.”

The voice fell.

Vice Principal Sun, the professor who insisted on punishing Lu Benwei and the Blood Monster this morning.

He bent down and jogged all the way to the middle hall. His eyes excitedly swept around the seats of the directors, and then he bowed at a 90-degree angle.

“Good evening, board members!”

Vice Principal Sun rubbed his hands, his face full of flattery.

“Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Sun Hongbin, the vice principal in charge of discipline in our school.”

“Sun Hongbin, I remember you.” A board member surnamed Zhang waved at him.

Sun Hongbin immediately smiled like a chrysanthemum. “It’s my honor to be known by the Zhang family head.”

“Ahem.”

President Yan cleared his throat and the hall returned to silence.

“Principal Sun, tell us what you’ve seen and heard today! The thing that can make Chen Yuan step down!”

When Sun Hongbin heard that, he nodded like he was pounding garlic. “I understand, I understand!”

Immediately after, he straightened his clothes and cleared his throat, putting himself in the most perfect state.

“All directors, please listen carefully. I’m going to tell you a piece of shocking news.”

Everyone perked up their ears. As this was related to Chen Yuan’s departure, everyone’s eyes turned sinister.

“This morning, Lu Benwei was in the arena, giving special training to his student union club members. But I found out that Lu Benwei wasn’t training alone. He was with a monster, the Blood Monster!”

Sun Hongbin immediately stopped talking. He found that the atmosphere in the hall was so tense that it was about to freeze.

The atmosphere was so silent that one could hear a pin drop!

“Hmph, he’s really looking for death!” One of the school directors slammed the table, his remaining hair standing on end.

“The Blood Monster Prince is the royal bloodline of the Blood Monster clan. His body is a huge asset to us. I’ve been asking Chen Yuan to hand over the Blood Monster. I didn’t expect him to hand it over to Lu Benwei!”

...

“What I’m curious about is, why would the Blood Monster help Lu Benwei do such a boring thing?” another chairman asked.

“I don’t know.” Sun Hongbin grinned. “But I’m sure you’ll be very interested in what’s going to happen next.”

Sun Hongbin continued, “A monster appeared on campus, so I gathered some people to suppress it and arrest Lu Benwei. I didn’t expect Chen Yuan to suddenly jump out and protect Lu Benwei.”

“Alright!” One of the directors was very excited and waved his hands and feet. “In other words, we can use this as a reason to impeach Chen Yuan!”

The other directors were also happy.

“The students are colluding with monsters, and the principal is shielding the students. This is enough to make them suffer!”

“There’s going to be a good show at the Temple of Judgment.”

The crowd laughed.

Sun Hongbin rubbed his hands and said, “Dear directors, there’s one thing I have to say…”
