Chapter 247: Money Doesn’t Matter
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Han Ning was recognized as a bully at Capital University. Before Rong Qi and her arrived, he had done many intimidating things that scared people. He was used to taking matters into his own hands when he didn’t like someone. However, when Class 7 suddenly gained two female students, he toned down his tough demeanor considerably, afraid that he would scare the two girls away.
Han Ning twirled a pen in his right hand, sitting diagonally in the chair with a relaxed and comfortable posture, looking every bit the part of a bigshot.
The pen danced between Han Ning’s slender fingers, displaying a graceful and fluid motion that was quite pleasing to the eye. He frowned and said, “If someone bullies you in the future, let me know. Whether it’s at Capital University or elsewhere, I, Han Ning, can have a say.”
Han Ning’s ancestors had been involved in gangsterism for three generations. In his father’s generation, they had shifted to doing business and gradually cleaned up their act. However, the network of connections they had built up over the years was still there, allowing them to dabble in both legitimate and illicit activities.
No one from the prominent families in the capital dared to challenge the Han family’s reputation. Of course, that was except for families with deep roots and power like the Ye family.
Rong Qi fell silent for a moment, then said, “Thank you in advance.”
After that, Rong Qi lowered her head to edit a reply to Tang Lin’s post on the bulletin board.
[Seven: I’ll place 100,000 yuan as the bet. Money doesn’t matter; I have confidence in Class 7.]
This was the first time Rong Qi had spoken on the campus bulletin board under the name “Seven”.
Because of Rong Qi’s status as a special guest lecturer, her posts had a golden emblem next to them, symbolizing her identity. That emblem was extremely rare throughout Capital University.
Once Rong Qi’s reply was posted, the commentators were astonished.
[Damn! The person teaching that bunch in Class 7 is actually a special guest lecturer? This… seems like an overqualification, right?]
[Wait a minute. Before the semester started, I heard that there was a special guest lecturer at our school. Could this Seven be the one from the internationally renowned Perkston University, with two doctorate degrees? Damn it! I’m not at ease with this. Why isn’t this our homeroom teacher?]
[I also heard that this Seven had led a physics group at Perxton before and went from last place to first place! Since then, they’ve become famous, and nobody they’ve coached has ever lost!]
[Damn… Is this Seven really that amazing?]
[Could it be that Class 7 might turn the tables in the end?]
[Wait, I bet on Class 7, let’s make a wager and see if they can back up this confidence! I’m following, 1 bet 100 yuan!]
[Me too! With Class 7 being so amazing, I believe in Class 7.]
[I believe in Class 7 as well.]
The pressure on Class 1 intensified when they saw that. They couldn’t help but feel envious of Class 7 and felt they had such good fortune stumbled upon them.
But Class 7’s grades were just average. Despite the many legends about Class 7, old habits die hard. They couldn’t believe that a class with such poor performance would be able to stage a comeback.
As a result, the people from Class 1 didn’t take this matter to heart.
However, Rong Qi’s reply made Tang Lin’s expression unsightly. He thought, ‘A bet of 100,000 yuan on Class 7 winning? What a bold statement!’
Tang Lin immediately rallied Class 1 in their class group chat, determined to defeat the bunch from Class 7.
While Class 1 respected the widely renowned Class 7, they still held some disdain for them deep down. So, from time to time, they took the chance to kick Class 7 while they were down on the campus bulletin board.
Class 7’s members began to regain access to their phones, one after another. Once the blocks were lifted, sighs of disappointment echoed through the classroom.
“Damn… What kind of flag has Class 7 raised for us again?”
“Huh? What’s going on?”
“Quick, go check the campus bulletin board.”
Class 7’s members spread the word. When they entered, they saw Rong Qi’s bold words.
They couldn’t help but facepalm. They had no idea where this excessive confidence of Seven came from? She was speaking so boldly that even we couldn’t believe it..
