Hello Mr. King

Chapter 393: Unfair

It was obviously impossible to squeeze Li Yi out. Li Yi was as stable as she was. With this, the dispute between Li Yi and herself would only hurt the innocent. She was not an eighteen or nineteen-year-old childish adolescent.

“I just can’t get used to her.” Feng Xiaolu was still unhappy.

“Is there something I don’t know?” You could tell that there was a grudge with just a glance.

“When I helped you record in the last semester, the people around her mocked me with dripping sarcasm. They laughed at me for failing in the semester.” Feng Xiaolu was already a little terrified from slacking and failing in the first semester, yet these people still came and exposed her scars.

“What’s the point of bickering with people like this.” Yun Xiangxiang pulled her hand, “Let’s go. I’ll treat all of you to a big meal.”

She mentioned a big meal, but the rest of them still had class in the afternoon. They still ended up choosing one of the restaurants outside the school for their meal.

The prices here were slightly higher, and there were not many students. Tao Manni was constantly making eyes at Ma Linlin while they were eating.

Tao Manni had been trying to signal something all along, yet Ma Linlin had always wanted to stop her. Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t stand it, “Tell me what’s the matter.”

“Nothing.” Ma Linlin responded first.

Tao Manni glared at her with profound exasperation, “Xiangxiang, we have to vote for the cadre of our course department’s outstanding class…”

“Manni!” Ma Linlin interrupted her loudly before saying to Xiangxiang, “You are not suited to participate in this matter.”

Before this, there was a gossip of whether Yun Xiangxiang had relied on her popularity and obstructed justice. She was appointed merely because of favoritism and even put her influence into the selection of their classes’ cadre. Until this day, there were no results in the investigation of this matter.

“I’ll help with your campaign.” Yun Xiangxiang raised her eyebrows, “You are the outstanding class’ cadre in my heart.”

Yun Xiangxiang was indeed honest. She didn’t see anyone else, nor did she come in contact with anyone else. However, Ma Linlin did a great job. She could tell from their daily chats, as well as from some matters in class.

“Xiangxiang, this is a departmental evaluation. I don’t want you to come forward.” Ma Linlin advised her earnestly.

“Don’t overthink. I know what I’m doing.” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t think that there was anything wrong with her campaigning for votes. She said to Tao Manni, “Send me the voting link.”

After getting the link from Tao Manni, Yun Xiangxiang posted decisively on Weibo.

[Actress Yun Xiangxiang V: It’s time to vote, cuties. ]

Xue Yu was the first to see the post. Xue Yu clicked on the link with great excitement, yet it became the login page of Qingdao University’s official website.

[Xue Yu V: Junior, why is there no registration page for this? @Actress Yun Xiangxiang. ]

Yun Xiangxiang received a text right after posting on Weibo. She did not see Xue Yu’s tag, but many fans from either Qingdao University, Beijing University, or other universities had already given him some basic lessons.

[God Xue ah, that’s because there is no way to register for this account. The login user ID is Qingdao University’s student ID. ]

[It’s your fault you’re not a student of Qingdao University. You don’t even have the right to vote. ]

[Hahahaha, this is probably God Xue’s most sullen moment. I feel like laughing somehow. ]

[Boo, I want to vote for goddess too, but I’m also not eligible to vote…]

[Not eligible to vote plus one]

[Ai ya ya, I wonder if a graduate student could still vote. Let me try…]

…

Yun Xiangxiang posted on Weibo because those who were not Qingdao University students would not vote. She did not apply for other social software. Upon discussing with the department head, she also did not enter the class group on WeChat.

If she added too many people and her messages got leaked, it would cause trouble to both herself and the other students.

“Xiangxiang, you can help me campaign at the school forum. Is this playing it too big?” Ma Linlin stared at Yun Xiangxiang’s Weibo activity.

This was the cadre of the department’s outstanding class, everyone in the school had to vote, and those who participated could campaign for themselves. Ma Linlin was also unsure if the seniors who had graduated could vote.

There was no such precedent in the previous years. They could log in with their student ID, and if they were still eligible to vote, Ma Linlin didn’t even have to think about how the results would turn out.

Yun Xiangxiang had too many fans in the school. Some were studying there, those who had graduated, freshmen, and even those who were about to enter…

“Won’t the results all be the same?” Yun Xiangxiang responded indifferently and then replied to Song Mian’s text with a smile.

Song Mian asked her what she would like to eat at night. Having a boyfriend who had excellent culinary skills meant that she could pick her dishes every day.

When Yun Xiangxiang had just returned to school after lunch, she was already notified that the department head had invited her to the office.

Many people were surrounding the office. They all seemed to be filled with righteous indignation as if they had been treated with severe injustice.

Hou Chengjue rubbed his aching head, “They all think it’s unfair that you helped Ma Linlin campaign publicly.”

There was a computer in front of Hou Chengjue, and the webpage on the computer showed the voting statistics. Ma Linlin took the lead, whereas the accumulated votes for all the other competitors didn’t even amount to hers.

“Teacher Hou, am I not a student at Qingdao University?” Yun Xiangxiang asked.

“Of course you are.”

“I have the right to vote, right?” Yun Xiangxiang’s gaze turned to these aggrieved people, “I would like to ask all of you, which of you have not asked your classmates to help campaign for votes?”

No one said a word. You would have to ask for the help of your friends for this kind of campaign.

“You can all ask your close peers to help you get the votes of their good friends through their connections. Ma Linlin and I are also friends. Why can’t I help her campaign?” Yun Xiangxiang asked.

Hou Chengjue understood this logic, but these young people were young, after all. As the head of the department, he might be accused of being impartial if he explained this. That was why he let Yun Xiangxiang do it herself.

“You are a celebrity!” Someone retorted immediately.

“Are celebrities not human?” Yun Xiangxiang raised her eyebrows. “I am also just asking others for help. Just because the people you asked do not have as great campaigning skills as I do, you think this is unfair. Why don’t you all go to the sons and daughters of the richest family and say that it is unfair for them to have the richest man as their father?”

First of all, she did not cheat. Second of all, she did not break any rules. Why should she be blamed?

“If you continue to campaign for Ma Linlin every year, what’s the point of us participating? You indeed didn’t break the rules, but you affected everyone’s enthusiasm!” Someone said righteously.

“He!” Yun Xiangxiang scoffed softly, “What you mean is that your duty as class cadres is not to serve your peers, nor is it to better yourselves. It is also not to help share the teachers’ burden. Instead, it is just for the sake of honor. Without having this honor, you lose motivation, and you lose enthusiasm. Is it?”

Without waiting for them to speak, Yun Xiangxiang went on to say, “If you are not satisfied with the popularity that I have gained with my capabilities, you can follow my example.”

Just because you could not follow suit, you cry for injustice. What logic is this?

Li Yi was also there. After all, she was also a candidate. She said calmly, “Yun Xiangxiang if you do this, Ma Linlin will be able to get medals and honors just by sitting back and relying on your relationship in the future.”

Everyone agreed, and so it was unfair.
