“Boss, is the Dean really your grandfather?”
Li Erniu asked with a curious expression; if he remembered correctly, their Dean’s surname seemed to be Su?
“Uh~, I’m not any kind of boss.
The Dean is my parents’ teacher, so I call him Grandpa.”
Chu Chengzhou waved his hand and said.
As a little weakling with less than level 1 Soul Power, Chu Chengzhou still had self-awareness; he clearly wasn’t qualified to be a boss.
“No, Boss, from now on you are the boss of our Dorm 7!”
Hearing this, Li Erniu said with a determined expression.
working students had always been a group that was bullied in the academy; his title as ‘Dorm 7 Boss’ was just the tallest among short people, far less impressive than it sounded on the surface.
Although Chu Chengzhou was young and his strength was unknown—and he was likely even weaker than him in terms of combat power—he had a Dean for a grandfather.
Shouldn’t they, these little scumbags, hurry and cling to his thigh?
As for why someone with a Dean grandfather would come to the working student dormitory?
Uh~, perhaps he came to experience life?
“That’s right, that’s right, Boss.
From now on, you are the boss of our Dorm 7!”
The former ‘Boss Li’ pushed Chu Chengzhou to be the new boss, and the other working students on the side hurriedly chimed in.
With a boss whose grandfather was the Dean, they shouldn’t be bullied at will anymore, right?
‘With a shake of dominating Qi, subordinates flock to join?’
Seeing all the working students pushing him to be their boss, Chu Chengzhou couldn’t help but think to himself.
“Ahem~, alright, I still won’t be the boss.
However, if anyone bullies you, I can help you mediate, but I can’t guarantee the results.”
Clearing his throat, Chu Chengzhou ultimately refused.
Chu Chengzhou, who knew the original work, had some understanding of the origins of the working student boss.
You should eat only as much as your appetite allows; being a boss isn’t that easy.
As a little weakling, Chu Chengzhou didn’t think he currently had the strength to be a boss.
Otherwise, if he brought up his grandfather and it didn’t scare people off, and he ended up being taught a lesson instead, that would be truly embarrassing.
Seeing Chu Chengzhou strongly decline, everyone was very disappointed, but upon hearing Chu Chengzhou promise to help them mediate disputes if something happened, their disappointment immediately vanished.
working students: From now on, we also have someone to rely on!
After some introductions, Chu Chengzhou managed to recognize all the working students in Dorm 7.
Hmm, among them was a minor character, the original boss of Dorm 7 next year, Wang Sheng.
After spreading out the bedding and setting up the daily necessities, it was getting late, almost time for lunch.
“Let’s go, since we just enrolled today, I’ll treat you all to a meal!”
Chu Chengzhou called out to the few working students in the dormitory.
“It is time for lunch!
But Boss Chu, let me treat you to this meal!”
Looking at the sun hanging high outside the window, Li Erniu said.
Chu Chengzhou had refused the position of ‘boss’, but the working students were still clinging to this ‘thigh’; after all, as long as they called him that for long enough, even if he wasn’t the boss, he would become one.
However, out of respect for Chu Chengzhou’s refusal, they added the character ‘Chu’ before the title of ‘boss’.
“I’ll do it.”
Glancing at the patched clothes on Li Erniu’s body, Chu Chengzhou shook his head.
Although he didn’t have a source of income for the time being, his grandparents hadn’t skimped on his living expenses; treating people to a meal was just a piece of cake.
Since everyone was living under the same roof and would be seeing each other all the time, it was necessary to build a good relationship.
Afterward, the group of ten or so people left Dorm 7 and headed toward the cafeteria.
The Nuoding Academy cafeteria wasn’t small; it was large enough to accommodate six classes plus teachers, totaling over three hundred people eating.
The cafeteria was divided into two floors, and the first-floor hall alone had three hundred seats.
As for the second floor?
That was a private kitchen that only wealthy families could afford to enjoy.
At this moment, long lines had already formed in front of the windows on the first floor of the cafeteria.
Watching Li Erniu head toward the long line, Chu Chengzhou grabbed him.
“What’s wrong?”
Li Erniu turned his head, looking at Chu Chengzhou in a daze.
“We’re going to the second floor.”
Chu Chengzhou pointed to the stairs leading to the second floor on the side.
It was his first time treating people to a meal in this life; wouldn’t the cafeteria’s cheap mass-produced food be too bad?
Not to mention a full VIP experience, at the very least, they should have a private meal.
“This…”
Li Erniu hesitated.
The second floor was for private meals, and the food wasn’t cheap.
He had been at Nuoding Academy for five years, and now it was his sixth; he had never eaten on the second floor before!
“Let’s go!”
Chu Chengzhou didn’t say much else, called out, and walked up the stairs first.
Everyone looked at each other, then immediately followed.
Since a ‘thigh-clinging rich guy’ was treating them to the second floor, there was no reason to refuse.
Anyway, Boss Chu’s grandfather was the Dean, so he definitely wasn’t short on money.
There weren’t many people eating on the second floor of the cafeteria; after all, no matter where you were, rich people were always the minority.
Chu Chengzhou brought the dozen or so working students with patched clothes to the second floor to eat, immediately attracting the gazes of everyone dining on the second floor.
“Yo~, isn’t that Li Erniu and his group of poor ghosts?
Why are they on the second floor?
Did the sun rise from the west today?”
Unsurprisingly, a discordant voice immediately rang out.
Following the sound, Chu Chengzhou saw that the speaker was a half-grown child with an unremarkable appearance, surrounded by a group of lackeys.
“Who is he?”
Chu Chengzhou asked Li Erniu.
“His name is Xiao Chentian, a sixth-year student.
He became an official Spirit Master last year, and I heard he is the nephew of the City Lord.”
Li Erniu shrank his neck and said in a low voice.
Clearly, Li Erniu, who came from an ordinary family, was somewhat afraid of this second-generation student in the academy.
‘Xiao Chentian?’
Chu Chengzhou raised an eyebrow; if he remembered correctly, didn’t this guy have a younger brother named Xiao Chenyu?
He could remember Xiao Chenyu’s name only because he was the son of the Nuoding City City Lord, yet his first spirit ring was a white ten-year spirit ring, and he even clamored for Xiao Wu to be his pet rabbit; he didn’t know where that youth got the courage.
“The cafeteria’s second floor isn’t run by you, is it?
Can’t we eat here?”
Taking a few steps forward, Chu Chengzhou retorted to Xiao Chentian.
“Kid, who are you?
State your name!”
Seeing Chu Chengzhou step forward, Xiao Chentian frowned and asked.
“Chu Chengzhou, a newly arrived first-year student, living in Dorm 7.”
“You’re just a working student, and you dare to…”
The disdain on Xiao Chentian’s face was palpable.
Chu Chengzhou’s clothing wasn’t bad, so he had originally thought he was the descendant of some powerful person in the city, but he hadn’t expected just this?
“My grandfather is Su Nan!”
Before Xiao Chentian could finish his sentence, Chu Chengzhou announced his grandfather’s name.
“Su Nan?
He’s nothing—wait a minute, you said your grandfather is the Dean?”
Just as he was about to say Su Nan was nothing, Xiao Chentian remembered; wasn’t the Dean of their Nuoding Academy, Su Nan?
Chu Chengzhou didn’t speak, just smiled and nodded.
Children, right~, seeing that he was about to face the oppression of ‘evil forces’, bringing out his parent was definitely the right thing to do.
He couldn’t possibly go up and duel with an eleven or twelve-year-old youth as a six-year-old child, could he?
