Chapter 706 - Subconsciously Ignored (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Sometimes, Lady Zhao did things in poor taste. She loved watching people pile up their hopes to the sky, only to send it all crashing down with a nudge. The higher they are, the greater the fall. Perhaps she took delight in the morbid satisfaction as a fraulein of the schadenfreude.
Zhao Youyue was already well-prepared for the elections. Her team was assembled, her programme finalized. most importantly, she was everyone’s idol.
The surprise gem from “Beautiful April’s” film adaptation was a determining factor behind this. As the actress for “Chu Luoxun,” Lady Zhao’s acting could not have been any better, even by the standards of the harshest critics. Many fans of the legendary female celebrity Zhang Guorong have agreed that Lady Zhao was her reincarnation.
Zhao Youyue had breached the entertainment circle in a most dramatic fashion. From live streamer to movie star!
Everyone knew that movie stars sat at the pinnacle of the entertainment industry!
Zhao Youyue already had several loyal fans, to begin with. Now, she could boast about having actual movie stars among them. Of course, several of them would be students of Jiangnan University…
One could only imagine that when Lady Zhao announces her running for the student president, fickle elements like election slogans, programme, campaign teams would be completely unnecessary. She would wipe the floor with the so-called competition.
In the past, Zhao Youyue might have always doubted her leadership. Now that she has lived as the legendary Empress “Olivia,” things have changed. If she could govern half the world where demons and sorceresses roamed, what trouble could a campus pose?
Besides, the student president within this parallel world was a figure of great authority. In Jiangnan University which was comparable to the top famous universities such as the Capital University — Chung Hua University, this power would be amplified a thousandfold. Even so, no matter how great the authority, the student president was free to do whatever he wanted. There were still teachers, administration staffs, and of course, the headmaster within the campus…
If there the power of a student president ever exceeded the headmaster, pigs would fly.
But we are talking about Zhao Youyue here. She would give the impossible a try — and her chances were solid. Who knows, she might even gain sole authority over the campus. After all, she only had to win the current election and the subsequence re-elections. She could perpetually retain that position for God knows how many semesters. Nobody said that the maximum term for a Student President was two years.
Unfortunately, nobody had even come close to breaking that limit. The pressure came not just from above, but from below. Countless others wanted that position for themselves. Who would not cave into those demands?
Zhao Youyue had made up her mind. She would submit her application as a candidate just before the deadline. She was looking forward very much to seeing Qiao Fei and Cao Chuanguang’s expressions when it happens…
Zhao Youyue truly disliked the both of them. Qiao Fei was the biggest hypocrite she had ever know. On the surface, she was fair and just, but she probably had more backdoor dealings than China’s most corrupt. After learning of Lady Zhao’s background, her Discipline Inspection Department no longer checked on Zhao Youyue’s dormitory. Clearly, they were attempting to lick her boots. From the beginning, Qiao Fei’s odds had been huge. A mere word from Lady Zhao that favored Zhu Yongnian had brought her dreams crashing down.
