Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic One - A Sober Fall
Chapter 55 Questioning
Yue Shuiying stood beside Jin Sesan with her head bowed, deep in thought. Although Yue Shuiying and Jin Sesan were standing together, their minds were not at peace.
Private rooms on the third floor of the cafeteria
Tu Mi asked, "Has there been any movement from the Yue family?"
In the original novel, Yue Wuque appeared in the public eye not long after the vice president selection. It is estimated that the Yue family did not want to hand over the position of president of Alice Academy to someone else. However, after being out of the public eye for a long time, Yue Wuque was actually going toe-to-toe with Jin Sesan, Feng Jia and Ye Tianzhu in the competition for the position of president. In the past, Yue Wuque would have been slightly better than the other three in the position of president. Until the end of the novel, the four of them were still competing for the position of president.
Looking at the present, with the addition of Tu Mi, Yue Wuque of the Yue family has gained another competitor. Furthermore, due to the Tu family poaching members from the Yue family, the Yue family's power has been somewhat weakened compared to the original text. Therefore, Tu Mi estimates that Yue Wuque's competition for the position of president this time will be somewhat difficult. However, the Yue family was once the head of the four major families, and Yue Wuque is still a very troublesome competitor.
Lan Yin replied, "The Yue family has been preparing something recently, and it seems they are planning to hold a banquet. Bai Ling and his people have been acting quite arrogantly in the student council lately, paving the way for the missing Yue Wuque, and it seems they are just waiting for Yue Wuque to easily take over."
When Yue Wuque first went missing, Lan Yin was still by his side. She and Bai Ling acted as freely as Yue Wuque did in the student council. But as time went on and Yue Wuque was still not found, Bai Ling and Lan Yin became much more discreet.
Lan Yin looked up at Tu Mi, her voice slow but firm, "So..."
Tu Mi looked at Lan Yin, her eyes conveying a sense of certainty.
"Yue Wuque will be returning soon."
Lan Yin's cold gaze deepened as she asked疑惑地问道, "The actions of the Yue family..."
Tu Mi lowered her eyes and gently stroked the delicate patterns on the surface of the teacup. She calmly said, "Previously, everyone knew that Yue Wuque had disappeared, which caused quite a stir. At first, the Yue family's affiliated families did not care. The Yue family is the head of the four major families. Yue Wuque would disappear? No one would believe it. But the fact is that the Yue family seemed to have tried their best to search for him, but to no avail."
At this point, some aristocratic families who had no expectations for the future and only saw the negative aspects of the disputes among the aristocratic families, and who were dependent on the Yue family, began to panic. They began to gradually reduce their interactions with the Yue family and increase their interactions with other families.
The Yue family held a grand banquet to celebrate Yue Wuque's return, clearly indicating to everyone that Yue Wuque, the Yue family's successor, had not disappeared, and that the Yue family could still be the head of the four great families—no, the head of the five great families.
Lan Yin nodded, her expression understanding.
For some reason, Lan Yin said to Tu Mi with a serious expression, "Yue Wuque is not a simple person, Tu Mi, you must be careful."
Tu Mi smiled, wondering how it could be anything but simple.
"Oh?"
Seeing the "amusement" rising in Tu Mi's eyes, Lan Yin shook her head helplessly and then explained: "Yue Wuque and I entered Alice Academy in the same year. From the moment I entered the academy, I have been working by Yue Wuque's side. Judging from the way Yue Wuque interacts with Jin Sesan, Feng Jia and Ye Tianzhu, Yue Wuque is good at winning hearts and minds."
Tu Mi silently chanted in her heart, "Winning hearts..."
The original text states: Although Ye Tianzhu enjoys immense prestige now because he is an illegitimate child, his childhood was truly miserable, worse than that of pigs and dogs. He was frequently subjected to verbal abuse and forced to eat rotten food. Once, Ye Tianzhu happened to see Yue Wuque feeding stray kittens. He didn't approach but silently watched Yue Wuque. The boy in the distance smiled gently and warmly, his hands moving softly, his words of comfort saying, "Kitten, it's not your fault." From that moment on, a boy named Yue Wuque was etched in Ye Tianzhu's heart. Coupled with his frequent encounters with Yue Wuque, Ye Tianzhu's feelings for him deepened.
Feng Jia lost both parents at a young age and was raised by his uncle, Feng Jin, without experiencing much parental love. However, after entering Alice Academy, Feng Jia met Yue Wuque. When Yue Wuque spoke to Feng Jia with his gentle eyes, looking at him with tenderness and understanding, it touched Feng Jia's heart, who was starved for love.
Jin Sesan is neither an illegitimate child nor an orphan. He is a bit rebellious, but that's okay. Yue Wuque will discipline Jin Sesan. Gradually, as time goes by, sparks fly between discipline and rebellion.
Yue Wuque was a gentle yet powerful man. No student at Alice Academy disliked him. He was like the bright moon hanging high in the sky, unattainable. Therefore, Jin Sesan, Feng Jia, and Ye Tianzhu regarded Yue Wuque as their ideal man.
Tu Mi thought about the original text's descriptions of these people's emotions and felt something was off. Was this what was called "winning hearts and minds"?
If Yue Wuque were to use this approach on Tu Mi, Tu Mi would only think that Yue Wuque was crazy.
"boom--"
The door slammed against the wall with a loud bang.
Tu Mi and Lan Yin looked in the direction of the sound, and Feng Jia walked in from the door, smiling at Tu Mi and saying, "Vice President Tu, may I have a meal with you?"
Although Feng Jia's words were polite, his tone was inexplicably sarcastic.
Tu Mi stared indifferently at Feng Jia, her gaze meeting his deep, unsmiling eyes. He looked away without flinching, then raised the corners of his mouth, "Of course, I can..."
Tu Mi paused for a moment, then mimicked Feng Jia's tone, "It is my honor to have dinner with Vice President Feng."
Then he said to Lan Yin, "Senior Lan, I'm so sorry about today. I'll treat you to a meal another day."
Lan Yin straightened her clothes and replied with a smile in her eyes, "It's nothing."
After saying that, Lan Yin walked towards the door.
After Lan Yin had completely left the private room, Feng Jia slammed the door shut with a loud bang, followed by Feng Jia's cry of "Tu Mi!"
Ignoring Feng Jia, Tu Mi calmly picked up the teacup in front of her and slowly brought it to her lips.
Seeing Tu Mi's appearance, Feng Jia laughed in anger, his deep eyes spreading outwards.
He stepped forward, snatched the cup from Tu Mi's hand, sat on the table, propped himself up on one hand in front of Tu Mi, and looked down at her, his deep eyes following her intently. He lowered his voice, "Tu! Mi!"
Tu Mi slowly opened her eyelids and glanced at Feng Jia without any emotion. Her inorganic eyes reflected Feng Jia's displeasure, or even rage.
Feng Jia continued, "You're really clever, taking things step by step and using us to build momentum for you."
Tu Mi's calm face suddenly broke into a smile when she saw Feng Jia's increasingly gloomy eyes. She parted her lips slightly and said, "Thank you for your praise. Also, do you know? Several times you have followed the course of events I planned. In other words, I don't have to do anything. You use the role of Yue Shuiying to slander the Yue family, or you fight among yourselves. In the end, I can easily obtain the fruits of your labor."
