"Excuse me, can I interview you? Why are you queuing here?"
"Of course, it's to confess my feelings to Cheng Xiuxiu."
"Do you like Cheng Xiuxiu?"
"Of course, everyone who's seen that video must like her, right? She's so charming, so cute, she's simply irresistible... I can confidently say that any guy who doesn't like Cheng Xiuxiu is gay!"
"Wow~ This student has made some truly impactful remarks! Although a bit extreme, it clearly shows the students' curiosity and fondness for this wealthy young lady who just transferred to Class 2-3. Speaking of which, who wouldn't like Cheng Xiuxiu, who's both cute and rich? Everyone can look forward to the upcoming interview with Cheng Xiuxiu in the school newspaper; there will be more interesting information released!"
"Alright, that concludes the interview!"
"Received payment via WeChat, 20 yuan~"
"Why are ten dollars missing?"
"I didn't bring enough this time, hehehe... I'll make up for it next time, next time!"
The male student, number 41, who received the money, left the group cursing and swearing, leaving behind the school newspaper reporter fiddling with his camera and Chen Chen standing next to him with a helpless expression.
Goodness, there's such a way to play?
Chen Chen suddenly recalled the rampant trend of those "internet celebrity" stores from a couple of years ago. Long queues would form at opening, making people think the food was incredibly delicious. But as soon as the appointed time arrived, the queues would vanish, and when asked why they left before even buying anything, the answer would be: "No overtime."
What? You're asking why Chen Chen knows so much about this?
Of course, it's because Chen Chen is the honest guy who said "no overtime" and then got a hundred yuan deducted from his paycheck.
Even now, Chen Chen still believes it was the right thing to do! The great astrologer Mona once said, "One must live on the path of truth." If he were to lie and cheat for just one hundred dollars, how could he face Miss Mona and everyone in the ○ God?!
"Ah, it has to be God, He taught me how to be a human being..."
"And now, it's my turn to teach others how to be a decent human being!"
Chen Chen turned around abruptly and strode into the classroom next door, Class 2-4.
In a corner of the classroom, Yan Yiyan was chatting excitedly with a few girls. When she saw Chen Chen coming over, her happy face became even more excited, and she quickly beckoned him over:
"Vice... oh wait! You can call me by my real name outside the club, Chen Chen! So? Where's your place in the queue?"
"I'm not sure, but there are quite a lot of people ahead of us," Chen Chen replied, frowning.
Yan Yiyan chuckled, "It's okay, you have your badge. You can chat with us for a while before going back to line up. Everyone's quite curious about you. Let's chat for a bit, maybe we can even get you an exclusive interview!"
"Yeah, Chen Chen," a few bespectacled girls nearby said with smiles. "We've heard so much about you and have been wanting to chat with you for ages."
But Chen Chen shook his head:
"Excuse me, I need to speak with Yan Yiyan about something."
"Huh? What's wrong?" the girl asked, her big, round, bright eyes like a puppy's.
Hmph! She acts all innocent and naive, yet she lies through her teeth. She's awful! She must be severely punished.
"If you want to speak privately, come with me."
"Huh? Is it that mysterious?"
The girl scratched her head, and seeing Chen Chen gesture for her to leave, she could only pout and get up to follow him out.
……
The fifth and a half floor.
Yes, it's like most buildings. For various reasons, the sixth floor, which is the top floor, is often not open to the public and is instead used to store a lot of miscellaneous items. Few people go up there, which makes the fifth and a half floor a place where many people whisper to each other.
"Why did you bring me here?" Yan Yiyan asked cautiously, standing on the steps behind Chen Chen.
Quiet and private spaces often give people a sense of oppression, and perhaps because she felt this oppressive feeling, her smile had also subsided considerably.
"Of course, it's to say things that aren't easy to say in front of others." Chen Chen turned around, his eyes dark, and suddenly spoke:
Tell me! Tell me why! Why did you do this?!
Yan Yiyan was so startled that she stammered, "I...I...what did I do?"
"Hmph! Trying to play dumb with me, huh? I'm starting to doubt if you're a cool guy."
Chen Chen pointed to the long line of students from Classes 2 and 3: "Almost no one actually went to confess their feelings. Isn't this just a farce orchestrated by your school newspaper?"
"That's right." Yan Yiyan nodded, hands on her hips, looking quite self-assured. "So, in order to maintain your great and positive image as the vice president, we will report it as if everyone is confessing their love."
"Huh? To protect my image?"
Chen Chen was startled by this bizarre and incomprehensible reason, but luckily Yan Yiyan reacted quickly and reached out to catch him around the waist, preventing him from falling.
"Hehehe, Vice President, you're such a loser!" The girl looked down at Chen Chen, her perspective similar to that of a domineering CEO in a romance drama, supporting a seemingly innocent but actually naive woman as she bends over.
Wow, this feels so weird, like my inner femininity has been awakened!
"Let go!" Chen Chen hurriedly broke free from Yan Yiyan's embrace. "Tell me... tell me quickly, what do you mean by that?"
"Hmm... let me give you an example." Yan Yiyan raised a finger. "If it were just you, the vice president, confessing to Cheng Xiuxiu and getting rejected, what would everyone think?"
"clown."
Then, one finger became five.
"What if a group of people are rejected?"
"A bunch of clowns."
"Oh, it seems a bit... Ahhhhhh no no no!!!" Yan Yiyan quickly shook her head, her high ponytail swaying back and forth with the shaking of her little head.
"They'll ignore you!" The girl stood with her hands on her hips, her cheeks flushed, pointing at him angrily. "Everyone will just think Cheng Xiuxiu is too picky and hard to get, and that no one can succeed with her, so they won't think you're a clown!"
"So..." Chen Chen frowned, "Actually, you all arranged for so many people to confess their feelings to Cheng Xiuxiu just to avoid embarrassing me?"
"Hehehehehe..." Yan Yiyan laughed a little awkwardly, "Of course, that's only part of the reason."
"What other reason could there be?" Chen Chen asked, puzzled.
"Vice President, don't you know that we live in an era where traffic is everything?"
As she spoke, Yan Yiyan took out her phone and pulled out a short video, which showed the scene of him rushing onto the stage yesterday to confess his love to Cheng Xiuxiu.
"Vice President, do you know how many likes this video got because of your 'God of Sex' confession yesterday?"
"Uh..." Chen Chen leaned closer to his phone, his gaze hesitant.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5... five zeros, the first number is 3..."
He suddenly looked up, his eyes fixed on the girl, his face filled with shock:
"Holy crap, three million likes?!"
