"I'm a top student here, why wouldn't I be?"
Shen Lei inwardly cursed, surprised to find this bastard was a university student at Jinzhou University.
"Dean, what's going on?" Zhou Hong quickly turned to the dean.
The dean snapped back to attention. He had also seen Shen Lei's expression change multiple times after seeing Zhou Hong, and his body was trembling slightly. He was utterly shocked.
In his mind, Shen Lei was already an untouchable figure, the notorious "Underworld King" of Jinzhou. Yet, he never imagined that after Zhou Hong arrived, this "Underworld King" would tremble in fear. It was as if Shen Lei were seeing him tremble.
"Senior Zhou Hong, it's like this. I saw a newly registered account on a city-level forum in Jinzhou City. This account was being very ignorant and jumping around in the forum, so I scolded it online. I didn't expect this newly registered account to be Shen Lei, and now he's actually here." The dean, as if finding a protector, explained everything.
"Heh! I thought it was a big deal. Shen Lei, this isn't right of you. Why are you so petty? If you're an anonymous little account jumping around online and get disciplined, isn't that normal? Look at me, how many people curse me on the Jinzhou University forum, do I go find them to settle scores? If I were as petty as you, Jinzhou University could be renamed the School for the Disabled."
Shen Lei remained silent, suppressing his anger.
"What? You don't like what I'm saying?" Zhou Hong frowned, exuding a chilling aura.
Instantly, Shen Lei felt that aura like a blast of cold air, raising goosebumps all over him.
"I wouldn't dare. I absolutely love what you say," Shen Lei stammered, startled, and quickly regained his composure.
"Good that you know. Then leave if there's nothing else. Why are you still standing here, waiting for me to invite you to dinner?" Zhou Hong barked.
"Yes." Shen Lei nodded and quickly left the office with his two subordinates.
"Wait a moment." As Shen Lei walked out, Zhou Hong called out again.
"Dean here, we have a good relationship. Don't let me find out you trouble him again."
"Yes." Shen Lei nodded, then swiftly departed.
However, his fists had been clenched tightly since he saw Zhou Hong, not relaxing even a bit, his fingernails digging into his flesh.
Zhou Hong naturally saw his tightly clenched fists. Although he verbally declared he "absolutely loved" his words, he was undoubtedly seething with hatred for Zhou Hong in his heart.
But it didn't matter. Perhaps in others' eyes, he was the "Underworld King" of Jinzhou City, but in Zhou Hong's eyes, he was just a worm. If this worm behaved, it would be fine. If not, Zhou Hong would crush him with a single kick.
"Thank you, Senior Zhou." The dean gratefully said to Zhou Hong. If Zhou Hong hadn't arrived just then, one of his arms would have been chopped off.
"Dean, no need for politeness. It's just a small effort."
"To you, it's a small effort, but to me, it saved an arm! This Shen Lei, he's the famous Underworld King...!"
"Alright, alright, no need to say so much about a minor figure." Zhou Hong interrupted the dean.
"Yes, yes, yes." The dean wiped a cold sweat. In Zhou Hong's eyes, Shen Lei was such an insignificant figure that he didn't want to hear him mentioned. He truly wondered how strong Zhou Hong was. Sudantxt.com
"By the way, Senior Zhou, why are you suddenly here to see me?" the dean quickly asked.
"I do have a matter. I have a friend named Liu Hua, and I want to arrange for him to study here with me from now on. What do you think?"
"Ah, this... Of course, it's no problem. But how old is your friend?"
"He's the same age as me. He's currently a security guard at a company. His college entrance exam score was ten points higher than mine, reaching 260."
The dean couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat. However, since Zhou Hong had spoken, he certainly couldn't refuse.
"Alright, you can have him come over anytime. However, just like you, he'll only receive a graduation certificate, not a degree certificate," the dean said.
"Heh, it doesn't matter. I'm not bragging, but when it comes to calculating speed, I'm second to none." Zhou Hong chuckled, too lazy to tell the dean that his abacus skills on the Purple Firmament Continent were unmatched.
"Very well." The dean nodded. In fact, those who got in through connections, like Zhou Hong, only received graduation certificates, not degree certificates. Otherwise, it would be unfair to the high-achieving students who got in through the college entrance exam.
Of course, those who got in through connections didn't care much about it anyway, as they would inherit their family businesses after graduation. Whether they learned anything in college was not important at all.
"Then I'll be going now." Seeing that there was nothing else, Zhou Hong turned to leave.
"Senior Zhou Hong, please wait a moment." The dean seemed to have something else to say.
"Do you have anything else? Oh, right, call me Zhou Hong, a fellow student, from now on."
"Okay, student Zhou Hong, I do have something I want to discuss with you."
"Go ahead."
"Well, many teachers have called me privately, wanting me to expel you."
"Heh, is that so?" Zhou Hong couldn't help but smile.
"Of course, don't worry. I wouldn't expel you. However, I also hope you can abide by some school rules, for example, be friendly to your classmates and respectful to your teachers. This would also make my job easier."
Zhou Hong chuckled, "Are you telling me what to do?"
"Ah, no, no, no. I'm just suggesting. How would I dare to tell you what to do?" The dean jumped in fright, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
"Alright, I know what you want to say. You must have seen the video just now and think I was flirting with Teacher Yang Xi, right?" Zhou Hong asked with a smile.
"Senior Zhou Hong, I apologize. It was presumptuous of me. From now on, you can flirt with whomever you please, and I will never interfere." The dean quickly promised.
"Alright, I know what I'm doing and have my limits. I don't need you to teach me."
Zhou Hong turned and left.
The dean let out a wry smile. Fortunately, Zhou Hong hadn't gotten angry just now. He was almost mistaken for trying to lecture Zhou Hong.
After Zhou Hong left the dean's office, he called Liu Hua.
"Zhou Hong, I'm at work. Why are you calling me? Oh, right, I was also about to report something to you." Liu Hua said to Zhou Hong after answering.
Zhou Hong's brow furrowed slightly. "What do you need to report to me?"
