Chapter 558 (2/2)

By simply being friends with Lady Zhao was a particularly eye-opening matter in itself. Now that he learned of her ambition to become the next Student President, he just had to get involved. These were real-time, front seat materials! If he ever wanted to write a novel that is set in a University in the future, he would create a “Student President” character who is way more realistic, compared to other writers!

He would be as good as writing it from personal experience. Besides, Lady Zhao had not spared a single detail in her plans. He considered it an honor to be a loyal confidant. They were almost conspiring an actual rebellion!

Knowing Lady Zhao, she might actually reach the Student Council president’s throne during her first year in university. This was history in the making!

Novels involving University Student Council that were on the market were rather tame and low-key, compared to most books. If the Student President was a girl, she would most likely be a senior. No female character would ever become the Student President as a Year 1 junior!

“The Literature Society was only meant to be a casual past time. I’ve no interest in it whatsoever. Besides, when talking about literary literacy, how could those female youths of the Literature Society compare to you, My Lady? Sorry, it should be Madam President,” said Han Leng.

A satisfied smile finally appeared on Zhao Youyue’s face. She commended him, “Not bad. There will definitely be a place for you within the Student Council in future, Elite Scholar Han. I have complete faith in your capabilities.”

Han Leng had never expected that he would be able to get into a Student Council one day, much less be a part of its upper echelon. Now, he was very much convinced that he should jump aboard the Lady’s pirate ship, plundering and pillaging to greatness.

Wait a minute… He was here to talk to Lady Zhao about the rumors. Why were they conspiring a rebellion instead?

Let’s take a look at the situation again. The reach of the rumors would directly correlate to Lady Zhao’s headstart to renown. When her bad name finally reaches every corner of the campus, the impact would be far greater when she reverses the situation…

Compensation mentality. The desperate, guilt-ridden emotion that drove people into making amends after grossly misunderstanding someone. Would this become Lady Zhao’s stepping stone to run for the Student President’s position, instead?

The more Han Leng thought about it, the more he found Lady Zhao to be more incredible than ever. They were playing a game of “sure win” chess. How could “clarifying rumors” be comparable to “utilizing rumors”?

Lady Zhao must have seen this coming a mile away. That explained her deadly, ice calm!

Han Leng finally realized how foolish he had been to confront Lady Zhao about this. But it was exactly due to such behavior that Lady Zhao was trusting him more than ever. He shrugged. He may have lost some, won some, but he stood here now, and that was good enough.

Han Leng decided to move in the darkness, adding flavor to the existing rumors and preheat the oven. Good or bad, Lady Zhao’s name would be known campus-wide and maybe more. When she launches her campaign, she would turn the entire situation around with a single phone call!

Han Leng left the library, his questions answered, his soul greatly pleased – as if he had just wrapped up a great deal. He had gained the inspiration to write a new book. Of course, “Dragon Raja” was still in the running, but as a writer, wasn’t it normal for him to probe his mind for something new?

What do I call this new book? “Love, Election and Chocolate”? “Maid Sama!”? “Shin Megami Tensei: Persona”?

Should I write this on a side account? If I don’t, I might get beaten to death by Lady Zhao…
