Chapter 58 Conversation, Yan Shaozhe's Scheme
Chapter 58 Conversation, Yan Shaozhe's Scheme
"Hey! Yan Shaozhe! Listen to me! You absolutely can't go back on your word this time!"
Tang Wulin will give it to you this time! But Huo Yuhao is so young...
He has thus achieved the rank of Level Two Soul Master, and is definitely a promising talent for our Soul Guidance Department.
You old codger, don't be too greedy! He must be ours!
Not long ago, Qian Duoduo's angry voice came through the phone, muffled and unclear.
Meanwhile, in the tall office of the Dean of the School of Foreign Languages,
Standing by the window, Yan Shaozhe held the phone, facing the sunlight, and smiled:
"Of course, we've known each other for so many years. She's just a student; would I lie to you?"
The curtains, not fully drawn, blocked some of the sunlight, while some shadows obscured the telephone.
Qian Duoduo's muffled voice came from inside. "Don't try to get close to me. You'd better keep your word this time."
Logically, this should have been another war of words, but Yan Shaozhe was surprisingly mild-mannered this time.
He smiled and said, "Of course. If you think I lied to you later, just go to the Sea God Pavilion and complain about me."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo finally felt a little relieved and said:
"Good, Yan Shaozhe, you're finally starting to look like a dean of the Foreign Languages Department. Don't let me down!"
Click. Yan Shaozhe calmly hung up the phone and didn't say anything more. The room fell silent.
"It's quite rare to see someone not arguing with Dean Qian this time, and even give in."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe looked at Ma Xiaotao standing behind him and smiled:
"I'm so happy to have found such a promising talent as Tang Wulin that I don't care about anything else."
The sound of the sofa nearby was heard. Ma Xiaotao casually crossed her arms, frowning, clearly not quite believing it.
Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe said, "Alright, I know you don't believe me, and actually I didn't want to make any concessions either."
After all, Huo Yuhao is a pretty good kid; in previous years, I definitely wouldn't let him go.
Ma Xiaotao sat down on the sofa and said:
"Then why not put that kid on the core disciple list? What kind of logic is that?"
Yan Shaozhe said, "Logically speaking, the student who ranks second in the freshman assessment is qualified to enter."
But this matter involves Elder Xuan, and we need to consider his feelings.
Ma Xiaotao leaned back lazily on the sofa and asked疑惑地问道, "Elder Xuan, what does this have to do with you?"
Yan Shaozhe said, "Have you forgotten? Not long ago, at the final round of the freshman assessment,
In front of a large number of high-ranking members of our outer courtyard, Elder Xuan made a prophecy.
Those are Yan Feng and Gu Yu, those two kids, who possess the Shrek spirit.
But you probably know what happened next.
They lost so miserably right after I praised them, wouldn't that make Elder Xuan lose face?
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao burst into laughter, clearly recalling the hilarious scene from a few days ago.
The man with fewer words waited quietly for her to finish laughing, then calmly said:
"Therefore, in order to help Elder Xuan save face, we have no choice but to make things difficult for that kid Huo Yuhao."
Use him to tell the outside world that the truth of that competition was that the kid with the one ring was the one who dragged the team down, which led to that result.
Upon hearing this conclusion, Ma Xiaotao frowned, somewhat disapproving of this approach. After a moment's thought, she frowned and said, "Hmph, would Elder Xuan agree to this?"
Turning around to face the sunlight streaming through the window, Yan Shaozhe said:
"Given Elder Xuan's personality, he certainly wouldn't agree to such a thing."
But... Elder Xuan was straightforward by nature and would never have considered this aspect.
After hearing about this, he would only laugh at us for being blind in his heart, while congratulating himself that he hadn't embarrassed himself.
Furthermore, even if Elder Xuan has recently consumed many supplements, there is a very small chance that he has become smarter.
He should also realize that
We risked everything to save Huo Yuhao's face, even after your grandmaster personally praised Huo Yuhao's resolute character.
In this way, he won't blame us for his resentment anymore.
In short, we won't lose out by doing this.
Ma Xiaotao said, "We can't just hand Huo Yuhao over to the Soul Guidance Department."
Everyone says he was framed, so why not just pick him up?
Yan Shaozhe shook his head and said:
"No, since we've already rejected him, we can't accept him so quickly; that would be a slap in our face."
Moreover, your grandmaster has recently begun to value the development of the Soul Guidance Department.
If we are too assertive on the surface, it's easy for problems to arise.
Therefore, on the surface, we must first let that old guy Qian Duoduo act arrogantly.
This is why I directly advised Qian Duoduo to directly criticize me from Shanghai Shenge.
I must first make your grandmaster fully witness Qian Duoduo's unreasonable behavior.
Only in this way will we have a more legitimate reason to make our demands later.
Because of Qian Duoduo's criminal record, your grandmaster couldn't say much.
Ma Xiaotao said casually:
"Alright, alright, I really don't understand any of your convoluted nonsense anymore, it's giving me a headache."
Yan Shaozhe smiled and said:
"It's alright, suppressing the evil fire is your primary goal right now."
Weren't you still hesitating between these two, wondering which one you would choose?
Now things are different; Huo Yuhao isn't a formal core disciple.
With relatively low exposure, future growth prospects are clearly not very good.
Using it to suppress the evil fire is the least controversial choice.
Ma Xiaotao snorted, stood up abruptly, and waved her hand as she walked out, saying:
"Forget it, I have no interest in bullying a wronged newbie."
Besides, that kid hasn't even shown his ultimate ice talent yet, I'd better go find someone else."
Yan Shao sighed inwardly. In his mind, when he would gain more influence in the Sea God Pavilion in the future, he needed Ma Xiaotao among the younger generation to act as a pillar of stability and help him maintain order within the inner courtyard.
Despite all these years of training, this student's personality remains stubborn, arrogant, and straightforward; he seems only cut out to be a thug.
So Yan Shaozhe didn't press the matter further, and simply said:
"Alright, you can focus on your training during the holiday."
If all goes well, perhaps you won't need to appear as the Fiery Phoenix in next year's competition.
Ma Xiaotao waved her hand, turned around, and with a flick of her wrist, the door slammed shut.
