Stop Bothering Me, Emperor

Chapter 24 - Visiting the Set

However, the emperor’s opinion had never changed just because of other people’s few sounds of objections.

Yu Tang’s work efficiency was extremely high, since he wanted to establish a student union, the required locations and facilities must not be lacking. Negotiating with the school, they were approved with a conference room and an activity room as the meeting place for the student union members.

The student union needed a characteristic that distinguished themselves from the normal students. The armband that the school had supplied free of charge was mercilessly thrown into the garbage by the president, and he made them create an engraved metal tag, which could be pinned under the school badge.

Several newly elected department heads came to attend the meeting in high spirits, in passing they received their own engraved tag.

Within the very small conference room, there was an oval shaped conference table, and also a collection of multimedia facilities. Yu Tang sat on one end of the long table, the vice president sat at his left, and Song Xiao, who had no idea why Yu Tang had pulled him over, sat on his right.

Seven department heads, five were second years, but in the end they were all high school students. When they walked in to see the scene similar to a proper company’s meeting, they were all rather excited, as if they had headed for society in advance.

“Hi, Yu Tang!” Cheng Xinran was a famous second year, multi-talented beauty, and was specially requested by the vice president to manage the Literature and Art Department. Of course the more important thing was, she was the actual investor in control of the school forum, so to have her would make things much easier. Her family had some friendly relations with the Yu family, so she considered herself familiar with Yu Tang.

Yu Tang glanced at her, and didn’t speak.

Cheng Xinran was a little embarrassed, but quickly covered it up, smilingly sitting on the seat to the right of Yu Tang. After Song Xiao returned from the restroom, he saw that his seat had been occupied, and the girl sitting in his seat was incessantly speaking to Yu Tang.

“This student, you’re sitting in my seat.” Song Xiao walked over, his expression serious as he spoke.

“So many seats, and this one is yours?” Cheng Xinran felt that it was rather laughable. This student union only had one vice president, the others were all department heads, so whoever wanted to sit wherever was fine. Besides, she was the most familiar with Yu Tang, so she deserved to sit beside him.

“You sit over there.” Yu Tang lifted his chin towards Cheng Xinran, indicating for her to beat it.

Cheng Xinran was taken aback, looking at Yu Tang in astonishment. Seeing that he was talking to her, she immediately felt somewhat humiliated, with a ‘hmph’ she stood up and sat over the side.

“We’re the very first generation of student union, so all the rules and regulations system are determined by us. I hope everyone will treat this earnestly, and leave the next generation a good tradition.” Yu Tang’s voice was cold yet steady, and it made everyone who were originally still excited become serious.

Dugu An who was standing behind Yu Tang, then distributed the student union administrative system to everyone.

“In this is the overall guiding principle drafted up by me and the president. Each department’s specific system will be decided by you yourself, after that, hand it over to the president and I to audit,” Vice president Wang Yuechen attentively explained. The hard, colored pamphlet that was issued onto everyone’s hands was the distributed responsibilities of each department. Fastened on top was even everyone’s corresponding engraved tags.

The conference room was silent for a moment, everyone was a little flabbergasted, what’s all this ah! On the brightly colored table of contents was a row of eye-catching large words:

Ministry of Rites&#k2014; Literature and Art Dept.

Ministry of Revenue&#k2014; Studies Dept.

Ministry of Administration&#k2014; Organisation Dept.

Ministry of Publicity&#k2014; Propaganda Dept.

Ministry of War&#k2014; Physical Education Dept.

Ministry of Justice&#k2014; Disciplinary Dept.

Ministry of State Ceremonial&#k2014; International Dept.

“Recently the school has been advocating studies of ancient Chinese civilisation, we also have to comply,” Yu Tang spoke seriously, pinning the engraved tag &#k2018;Assistant Minister of Ministry of Revenue’ on Song Xiao’s chest.

Everyone looked at their own ‘so-and-so Minister’ engraved tags, and felt somewhat shameful. In the future, when the academic affairs teacher called for them, they would say ‘Minister of Works, arrange someone to put it up on the bulletin board!’ ‘Our school is going to compete, the Ministry of War has to organise it well!’

Thinking about this… it’s quite cool.

“This, how humiliating…”

“President, you’re really too brilliant!”

The members of the student union will be selected by each department head. Everyone left with complex feelings while wearing their engraved tag, then went to the assembly hall to select subordinates. The assembly hall was very lively, and the students waiting to be interviewed saw the signs hung up on the first row, and started discussing spiritedly.

“What’s this? Ministry of Publicity? I came to apply for the propaganda department!”

The head of the Ministry of Publicity buried their face in their hands. “Schoolmate, you didn’t see it wrong, our propaganda department is called the Ministry of Publicity.”

Whereas the people applying for the international department were even more astonished, What sort of plaything was the Ministry of State Ceremonial?!

But the head of the Ministry of State Ceremonial was the person who was the most supportive of Yu Tang’s proposal. To see him waving a large hand, magnificently saying, “Wake up ba, young men and women, the boys who wish to become an official of State Ceremonial, step forward to be interviewed ba!”

“Girls can’t apply to be an official?” a female student raised a protest.

“Cough, of course they can, I’m just quoting an actor’s lines, don’t mind it…”

Song Xiao looked at the additional engraved tag on his name, baffled. He came here to accompany Yu Tang in attending a meeting, so how come there’s suddenly another job?

“You don’t need to do anything, just pin it there.” Yu Tang pulled him back to the classroom for him to study well. At the student union, he had only given him a position with practically no obligations. Besides occasionally asking him to record a meeting, there really wasn’t anything for him to do.

The student union had just been established, and immediately received a major assignment. Sheng Meng Middle School’s students will have an exchange with them during October. Yu Tang wasn’t the slightest bit worried, he first determined each department’s established rules, arranged them to patrol around the school everyday, to supervise the morning exercise, inspect hygiene, arrange the bulletin board.

Within a few days, student union members then appeared in various corners of the school campus, each had their specific duty, methodically carrying out their tasks.

“Having a student union is convenient, saving us a lot of energy.” The academic affairs teachers watched as Yu Tang handed in the form stating the situation of each class’s exercise, and were very cheerful.

“If teacher finds me reliable, how about letting us directly be able to deduct marks? It would save the teachers from doing it again,” Yu Tang spoke rather earnestly. This mark deduction was referring to each class’s evaluation marks. The evaluation marks were linked to the form teacher’s bonus.

“All right ba,” The academic affairs teacher agreed without thinking. In any case, they also deducted marks according to Yu Tang’s form, so they might as well directly give it to him to do.

It was Friday in the blink of an eye. When class ended, Song Xiao received Li Weiwei’s phone call.

“Song Xiao, did you know, Qiu Mingyan was frozen,” Li Weiwei’s voice was somewhat excited, “and your father announced to the mass media that he wouldn’t marry Qiu Mingyan into the family!”

“En?” Song Xiao looked at Yu Tang beside him, that fellow was currently on the phone with Song Zicheng.

“Uncle, I’m Yu Tang, I visited your home last week,” Yu Tang spoke very politely, but his intonation was still insufferably arrogant. “It’s like this, when I go home I pass by your home, so might as well have Song Xiao sit in my family’s car.”

Once Song Zicheng on the other side heard that it was Yu Tang, he was really happy. Recently, the media were paying close attention to him, so not picking up Song Xiao would save no small amount of inconvenience, but more importantly, he was very willing to see Song Xiao become more intimate with the Yu family’s eldest young master, thus he readily agreed.

Song Xiao wanted to stop Yu Tang, but Li Weiwei kept chattering on, causing him to be unable to stop him. “Do you know who disclosed the matter of Qiu Mingyan? You definitely can’t guess it!”

“Isn’t it those reporters?” Song Xiao held his phone in one hand and picked up his packed up schoolbag with the other.

Yu Tang took the schoolbag, threw it to Dugu An, then held Song Xiao’s empty hand to go downstairs.

“It’s Zhuo Jingjing,” Li Weiwei sighed a couple times. “She’s Xinghai’s current rising star.”

In fact, Zhuo Jingjing was also Song Zicheng’s lover. Everyone in the company knew that this matter, ultimately, was caused by the jealousy of a rival in a love affair.

Li Weiwei’s information was always faster than even the paparazzi, gossiping for half a day, then in the end had told Song Xiao that he had received new work, he’ll be shooting his first scene this weekend. “This is a big role, the fourth male lead ne! You come visit on set ba! Come take a look at my heroicness!”

As a high school student, Li Weiwei also needed to go to school. The director showed him consideration and arranged all his scenes to be shot during the weekends. Thinking back on when he was ill, only Li Weiwei came to visit, so Song Xiao would naturally return the favour.

Originally having planned to bring Song Xiao to an amusement park this weekend, he heard that Song Xiao wanted to go visit an actors and production team. Yu Tang was uneasy, thus wanted to follow him.

This TV play, a modern idol drama, had the investment of Xinghai. It narrated a fresh graduate from college joining a large company to work, and had emotional entanglements with the three sons of the company president. Li Weiwei was acting as the female protagonist’s little brother, while the female protagonist…

“Xiaoxiao! Long time no see, you’ve become handsome again!” Zhuo Jingjing smiled gently, extending her hands with long fingernails, wanting to touch his face.
