Becoming a Billionaire From Awakening a System

Chapter 53: Calling for Backup: Student Council President

Sponsored

"Alright!"

"Who’s your class monitor?"

The voices were all jumbled together, and Lin Feng couldn’t make out what the other person was saying.

He had to find someone in charge.

"I am."

After Lin Feng spoke up,

a young man whose bangs covered his eyebrows responded.

But as he looked at Lin Feng, his eyes held a hint of suspicion.

"You’re not your class’s monitor, are you?"

"Where’s Zou Yong?"

"Where’d that guy run off to?"

From the way he was talking, it seemed he knew Zou Yong.

"Yeah, where is that guy Zou Yong?"

"Something like this happens and he doesn’t show? He lets you organize everything?"

It was only then that Lin Feng realized their class monitor, Zou Yong, hadn’t shown up at all.

’Instead, he’d left Song Yaqi to organize everything by herself?’

"I can’t get in touch with him. I called him this afternoon, but he didn’t pick up."

"Now when I call, his phone is turned off."

"I can’t even get through to Teacher Luo’s phone."

Song Yaqi said with a sense of helplessness.

If she’d had a choice, she certainly wouldn’t have wanted to bother Lin Feng.

But they had been sitting here peacefully when these people suddenly came over to stir up trouble.

Even with so many male classmates around, the first person Song Yaqi thought of was Lin Feng.

So, she had subconsciously given Lin Feng a call.

"You can’t reach him?"

Lin Feng was a little speechless.

For something like this to happen and for the class monitor to be missing... wasn’t that just ridiculous?

That Zou Yong.

Lin Feng didn’t even know what to say about him anymore.

"Forget it. Don’t bother looking for Zou Yong."

Lin Feng waved his hand dismissively and turned to face the group opposite them.

"Hey, the welcome party hasn’t started yet."

"You guys should hurry up and find somewhere else to sit."

"And don’t give me that stuff about reserving seats with the student council in advance."

"This is a university, not a hotel. Since when can you reserve seats?"

Lin Feng said with a hint of exasperation.

’I’m trying to get this over with so I can go sit with Su Ruoxi.’

’How could there be such a thing as pre-booking seats for something like this?’

’Everyone just sits wherever they want.’

’I haven’t seen anyone from the student council come out to stop it.’

The freshman welcome party was usually organized by the university-level student council, with the department-level student councils helping out.

A few senior teachers would also be there to provide occasional guidance.

It was a semi-official event; there was absolutely no need to reserve seats.

"Who are you?"

"Do you speak for your class?"

Hearing Lin Feng’s words, the opposing class monitor snorted with contempt.

"Seriously, just anyone dares to pop up and act all high and mighty now!"

Alright then.

Ever since those posts on the campus network went viral, this was the first time Lin Feng had been treated with such disdain.

If he could, Lin Feng would rather not be famous. He preferred to experience campus life quietly.

But those incidents had made him a celebrity of sorts at Yang City University.

Usually, when he walked down a path, people would turn their heads to look at him.

But now, this guy didn’t recognize him.

Lin Feng was suddenly at a loss for words.

"Of course Lin Feng can speak for our class!"

However, before Lin Feng could say anything, Jiang Chao and the others behind him stood up and spoke for him.

’Are you kidding? At a time like this, not trust Lin Feng?’

’Should we trust Zou Yong instead?’

"That’s right!"

"Lin Feng can speak for all of us!"

"We trust Brother Feng! Brother Feng is one of our class officers too!!"

Hearing the voices of his classmates behind him...

...Lin Feng was a bit stunned. ’Where did this sudden class unity come from?’

But at that moment, Lin Feng couldn’t be bothered to think about it.

"You hear that?"

"If you still want to watch the welcome party, you’d better hurry and find a spot."

"Otherwise, you won’t even have a place to sit soon."

Lin Feng didn’t like to cause trouble.

But when trouble came knocking, he wasn’t afraid of it either.

Just like right now.

The other party was clearly trying to start something.

So Lin Feng was definitely going to "persuade" them to back off.

"So you’re Lin Feng?"

However, after hearing Lin Feng’s words, the other guy didn’t pay him any mind. Instead, he sized Lin Feng up with a look of surprise.

"You’re the one who stole Su Ruoxi?"

That second sentence, however, made Lin Feng realize this matter wasn’t so simple.

’What’s going on?’

’Did I just run into one of Su Ruoxi’s suitors?’

Right.

With Su Ruoxi’s Appearance, it wasn’t strange for her to have many suitors at Yang City University.

It was just that Lin Feng had never run into one before.

It might also be because Lin Feng’s reputation was quite well-known, and he’d sent two students to the police station.

After finding that out, most people wouldn’t want to get into a conflict with Lin Feng.

"I really don’t get what’s so great about you. How could Su Ruoxi possibly fall for you?"

The guy across from him shook his head, seemingly muttering to himself.

"Cut the crap!"

"Hurry up and leave with your classmates."

"We were here first, so these seats are rightfully ours."

Being told to his face that there was nothing great about him, even a good-tempered person like Lin Feng was starting to get angry.

"Heh!"

"Looks like you just have to learn things the hard way!"

As he spoke, the opposing class monitor pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Brother Niu."

"I’ve run into a little trouble here. Can you come over and sort it out?"

"Here’s the situation."

"I brought my classmates to the welcome party, and another class is trying to steal our seats."

"It’s the class that guy Zou Yong is in."

"Zou Yong is with you?"

"Are you coming over now?"

"Okay, we’re in the middle of the audience section."

After a few more words with the person on the other end, the guy hung up.

Then he looked at Lin Feng.

"Hmph. Chairman Niu will be here any minute, along with your class monitor, Zou Yong."

"Also, Lin Feng, let me give you a piece of advice."

"I don’t care how rich your family is."

"This is Yang City University. And at Yang City University, you play by the school’s rules."

After finishing the call, the guy stuffed his phone into his pocket.

Then he looked at Lin Feng, his expression extremely arrogant, as if he were scolding him.

Actually, Lin Feng agreed with what he said.

At school, you really did have to live by the school’s rules.

Especially here at Yang City University.

Quite a few celebrities and wealthy business people had graduated from Yang City University.

The network of connections woven over so many years was beyond what an ordinary person could imagine.

Many of them were local tycoons from Yang City.

Lin Feng had no intention of causing a scene at school either.

But listening to the other guy’s tone, it was as if Yang City University belonged to him.

’Does this guy really think that just because he knows a student council chairman, he can do whatever he wants at school?’

The role the student council played at the university was indeed important.

From a certain perspective, the student council chairman had even more power than some teachers.

But in the end, the student council was just an accessory to the university.

You could use the student council to build connections.

But once you left the university...

...the title of "student council chairman" didn’t carry much weight at all.

’What a naive way of thinking.’

At least, Lin Feng and Yang Qiniang were smiling.

"Brother Feng, what now?"

Yang Qiniang asked with a smile on his face.

"What else can we do?"

Lin Feng shrugged. "Let’s just wait and see what happens."

"What if they really did reserve the seats?"

’Were the seats really reserved? Of course not!’

’The guy didn’t even mention it on the phone just now.’

From this, Lin Feng knew it was just an excuse to steal their seats.

It was a pretext to give their actions a veneer of legitimacy.

’To run into this kind of trouble just trying to watch the welcome party...’

Lin Feng didn’t know what to say anymore.
