Chapter 319 The Cry for Help on the Playing Field
"I want two million!"
Xue Siqi pondered for a moment and then stated a figure.
"Okay, you'll get two million," Li Qianfan agreed almost without any hesitation to the demand put forth by Xue Siqi.
???
Seeing how readily Li Qianfan agreed, Xue Siqi frowned and sized him up, saying, "Hey, are you up to something? Why did you agree so quickly? After all, I'm directly asking for five hundred thousand from you!"
"I'm not short of money!"
Li Qianfan said with a calm face.
Now that he had mastered the refining method of the Yang Strengthening Pill, and since it went on the market, it had been in high demand. If he wished to make money, all he needed to do was refine a large number of Yang Strengthening Pills.@@@@
With Lin Yiren's ways, as long as he had Yang Strengthening Pills in his hands, the other party would consume as many as he provided—there was absolutely no worry about a lack of buyers.
"Hmph." However, Xue Siqi looked disdainful and didn't believe a word Li Qianfan said, countering, "In this world, who would think they have too much money? You'd rather not take the money and have me attend a birthday party. Oh... I get it, you want to use this cooperation to establish a connection with Xue Tian, right?"
"You got it all right!"
Li Qianfan didn't want to argue with Xue Siqi about anything and simply nodded in response.
"Fine then, since we both have our needs, let's cooperate," Xue Siqi said, nodding slightly with a look of making a concession.
To this, Li Qianfan didn't say much more and added, "Since our opinions are aligned, let's discuss the details of our cooperation."
"What details are there?"
Xue Siqi was puzzled and commented, "After military training ends, I'll just go to the birthday party as planned. Is there something special I need to do?"
"Of course," Li Qianfan said gravely, "the task your father gave me is not just to make you attend the birthday party, but also to make you improve, to develop a love for school. So, you must attend military training on time, no swearing, and especially your hair—it must be dyed back. As a student, it's really not appropriate to have it dyed like that."
Upon hearing the many requests from Li Qianfan, Xue Siqi immediately regretted considering Li Qianfan's ideas, and she said indifferently, "Ah, you don't have to be so serious. Xue Tian doesn't know the situation at school, so there's no need for all this hassle. Listen to me, it can stay like before."
However, Li Qianfan said firmly, "Do you think your father became the head of the Xue Family because he's a fool? Since he's given three million for me to carry out this task, he must have planted informants in the school. If we carry on as before, your father will know right away, and I will fail my task. Neither of us will get the money."
A full two million!
For Xue Siqi, that was an irrefutable sum. She sighed first, then said, "Fine, I'll do as you say. Should I go dye my hair first?"
At first, Li Qianfan thought Xue Siqi would drop out halfway through, but to his surprise, while the other students were constantly complaining, Xue Siqi quietly continued her military training, obeyed every command, and became incredibly honest.
Besides Li Qianfan's surprise, the other students were also shocked.
In the morning, Xue Siqi had been defiant towards Li Qianfan, but in the afternoon, she turned out to be so obedient.
It was well known that Xue Siqi was the Xue Family's precious daughter, so why would she be so compliant with Li Qianfan's instructions? It was really unexpected.
Seeing such a well-behaved Xue Siqi, Li Qianfan was secretly pleased and marveled at the great power of money.
In addition to focusing on training Class Eight, Li Qianfan also found three assistants from Classes Five, Six, and Seven. After all, managing four classes by himself was too exhausting. With helpers, maybe things would get a little easier. Besides, letting the assistants get acquainted with the students now would be a big help during the outdoor training at Azure Dragon Mountain.
By six in the evening, a day's worth of military training was finally over.
During dinner, Li Qianfan, Ye Ling'er, Zhao Tianjie, and Tang Long gathered together to discuss their feelings about the day's training.
Ye Ling'er and Zhao Tianjie kept complaining while eating. In previous years, they were each responsible for only one class, which was quite relaxing, but now they were in charge of four classes, which significantly increased the workload and left them no time to rest.
Although Tang Long didn't complain, his eyes revealed that he was somewhat displeased with the situation of an instructor training four classes.
Li Qianfan immediately shared the 'assistant' strategy with the three of them, suggesting it would make things easier.
The trio agreed to give it a try the next day.
...
The school at night was very lively, especially the playground, which was packed and bustling with people in groups.
The boys gathered together to chat about the girls passing by, and some bold ones would even throw a few teasing remarks. Girls of this age were shy, and upon hearing the teasing words, they hastily left with flushed faces.
The senior male students who were in their second or third year also had nothing much to do and would stroll around the playground to check out the caliber of this year's freshman girls.
After dinner, Li Qianfan and his group, with nothing better to do and having changed into casual clothes, also came to the playground for a walk.
Watching this scene, Li Qianfan began to feel nostalgic about his own carefree college days.
"Help!"
"Save me, is there anyone who can hear me? Help me!"
As Li Qianfan and Ye Ling'er passed a small grove on campus, they suddenly heard a faint cry for help.
