After leaving the cafeteria, Gu Bai took Qi Man back to the girls’ dormitory and made plans to take her to Sea View No.1 in the evening, so she could experience being the hostess, and incidentally, fulfill some hostess duties.
Afterward, Gu Bai returned to the boys’ dormitory building.
He pushed open the door and walked straight in.
"404! Your emperor has returned!"
As usual, the inside crew might have hurled whatever they had on hand at him.
But today, when the three saw Gu Bai return, they instantly smiled obsequiously, "Oh wow, President Gu is back, please have a seat, please!"
Wen Cunming hurriedly jumped down from his chair, vigorously sweeping off the non-existent dust on the seat.
Deng Bo and Lou Xun, seeing this, each took a side and helped Gu Bai sit down.
"President Gu, hurry and tell us, how was this European trip? Were there any blondes with blue eyes, the kind that would shout ’fuck me’, ’oh yeah’, ’oh baby’?"
Wen Cunming lightly pounded on Gu Bai’s leg while giggling and asking.
Gu Bai rolled his eyes upon hearing this, but upon careful reflection, Dasha Talan seemed to be using Russian phrases when working, half of which he didn’t understand. Looks like next time, he should have her use a language he understands.
Deng Bo pushed Wen Cunming aside.
"Can you not ask such vulgar questions? Can we have some positive energy here?"
He then turned to Gu Bai, "Did you buy the Lamborghini Poison or not?"
They all knew that Gu Bai’s purpose for going to Europe this time was to buy it.
"It’s already acquired, and shipped back to the country; it’s at customs approval right now. Once that’s done, it can be transported over."
"President Gu is awesome! How much did you spend?"
"Including taxes, less than 90 million."
Gu Bai coolly bragged a bit.
Right after he finished speaking, the dorm fell into a deathly silence.
Deng Bo slowly turned around, addressing Lou Xun and Wen Cunming, "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have asked, I shouldn’t have spoken out of turn, I deserve to die."
After speaking, everyone erupted in exclamations and antics, and Gu Bai joined in with them; he was more relaxed around Deng Bo and the others than with Principal Wang and Li Zhun since he was more familiar with them.
After the antics subsided, Gu Bai said, "You guys know me, I hate trouble, so I didn’t bring much back for you from Europe this time."
Actually, the things sold in Europe now can be bought domestically as well, though with minor price differences. Gu Bai simply saved himself the trouble and brought nothing, going there empty-handed and coming back empty-handed.
"We’re all a bunch of old men; there’s nothing you could have brought. Just tell us how the European babes were. As you know, the few of us have no hobbies, just an absolute sincere pursuit of beauty!"
Only Wen Cunming could artfully present old pervs in such a refreshing and unique way.
"Actually, girls abroad are pretty much the same as those here; close your eyes, lie on the bed, and you can’t tell the difference."
"Vulgar! How is gobbling without savoring any different from hasty swallowing without tasting? Have you forgotten the earnest teachings of Tony Damu on many a night?"
Gu Bai realized that if this continued, this kid would likely go on forever, so he quickly interrupted.
"Though I didn’t bring gifts back from Europe, to make it up to you, I’ve decided to throw a party, right at my new house, set for two days from now."
Gu Bai had just finished speaking when.
Deng Bo: "Not going, do you think we don’t know your scheme? You just bragged about your 900 million Lamborghini Poison, and now you want to flaunt your over 100 million mansion? White Pieces, you’ve changed; you’re getting more skilled at killing with kind intentions."
Wen Cunming: "+1! Not going!"
"I kind of want to go see though..."
Lou Xun, who was naturally shy and lacked presence, spoke in a weak voice, but before he could finish, he was directly pulled over by Wen Cunming, interrupting his speech.
Gu Bai teased with a smile.
"Not going!" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
The last sound was Lou Xun’s protest as his mouth was covered.
"That’s quite a shame because you guys do know I own a media company, right? Recently, the company recruited a bunch of new influencers, all quite pretty. I was going to introduce them to you..."
In the middle of his sentence.
Wen Cunming urgently asked, "Influencers?"
"Yes, influencers, you know what influencers are like, right? Pretty, have pleasant voices, the kind that can call Brother Wuji."
"Say no more, I have a picture in my mind now."
Deng Bo, who had been restraining himself for a while, quickly adopted a serious expression towards Gu Bai and said, "White Pieces, I often see news online that rich people’s parties are very vulgar and reek of capitalist stench!"
As a friend, I have the right and obligation to supervise you, to prevent you from going down the path of depravity!
Actually, the parties aren’t what’s important; I’m more worried that those influencers will affect your physical and mental health."
Wen Cunming: "Well said! As they say, when men get rich they become bad. To prevent your party from having plot lines that could cause a 404, we are duty-bound!
I share an irreconcilable hatred with Poison!"
Having been released by Wen Cunming, Lou Xun panted heavily: "You didn’t mention anything about Huang!"
"Then I share an irreconcilable hatred with Huang?" (Sensitive words, previously deleted, make do, you get the gist.)
The three rolled their eyes in unison.
Now that it was settled, Gu Bai planned to inform Zhao Weiwei later to arrange for a batch of influencers to go to Sea View No.1 in two days. Coincidentally, there was also a custom in his hometown in Anhui Province for making new homes lively before moving in. Although Gu Bai had already moved in, traditions must be followed, and the influencers were just stand-ins.
Suddenly, Gu Bai’s phone rang.
"Mr. Gu, I’ve already brought people to your campus."
It was Sheng Lishan, a deposit manager from Construction Bank, who was now also his private client manager.
"Then wait for me a moment, I’ll be out shortly."
Gu Bai hung up the phone and got up to go meet Sheng Lishan.
"White Pieces, where are you going?"
Deng Bo, seeing Gu Bai about to leave right after coming back, quickly asked.
"Haven’t I been skipping classes a lot recently? To graduate smoothly, I talked to Lu Ang, the head of the directing department. I told him I’d 5 million to the school, and in return, I could skip classes freely.
But it has been delayed due to a lot of engagements recently. Taking advantage of just returning home, I’ve asked the people from the Construction Bank to coordinate with the school, that call was from their staff."
Regarding the donation, Gu Bai just mentioned the surface-level exchange of conditions, without explaining his deeper thoughts to them.
"As expected of a wealthy heir, donating 5 million to the school just to skip classes. Why not bring this proposal up with the school and include me? I mean, it’s 5 million, an extra person shouldn’t be too much, right?"
"Sure, just transfer to our directing department."
Gu Bai said with a smile, and left the dormitory promptly.
