Zongman: My Smart Group

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Rejected!"

Lin Mo: "..."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Rejected!"

Lin Mo said angrily, "I haven't said anything yet, what are you refutating me for!"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Sorry, I just said it without thinking."

Lin Mo said unhappily, "If they reject this and that, what's the point of having me as the vice president? What's the point of issuing commissions then!"

Yukino Yukinoshita sighed and said, "The Service Club is not a place to satisfy your personal desires. We help those who are in trouble. For example, if you want to get tutoring, you can come to me anytime, and I will help you wholeheartedly."

Lin Mo: "After-school tutoring?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "You could say that."

Lin Mo slammed his fist on the table and stood up: "What good is tutoring to me! With my intelligence, exams are a piece of cake! What I want is service like the club's name suggests. What exactly is the connection between your club's motto and its name?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "The final interpretation right belongs to the president of this company."

Lin Mo pointed at Yukino Yukinoshita and accused her, "This is blatant authoritarianism! You're exploiting us club members! I'm going to kick you out of the Service Club!"

Yukino Yukinoshita said expressionlessly, "I am the president!"

Lin Mo said angrily, "Yukino, you'll regret this!"

After saying that, Lin Mo slammed the door and left.

Yuigahama Yui asked, somewhat bewildered, "Um... Yukino, are you alright?"

Yukino Yukinoshita rubbed her head and said, "It's okay, Lin Mo is just throwing a little tantrum. He'll be fine in a while."

Leaving the Service Department, Lin Mo grew increasingly angry. He'd been promised a vice-president position when he joined, and while he'd indeed become one, it made no difference—he had absolutely no power! So what was the point of being vice-president? No wonder they were from a powerful family; they were cunning and scheming!

Lin Mo sighed, "Alas, I've been tricked by capital!"

The system said helplessly, "Host, the Service Club is not a place to satisfy personal desires. If this were not a two-dimensional world, the Service Club should actually be called the Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop)."

Lin Mo curled his lip and said, "But we're actually living here now, and you're talking to me about anime?"

"..."

After a long silence, the system didn't know how to refute it. Finally, the system decided to stop thinking about it; if it kept thinking, it would need to develop a brain.

With some time before class, Lin Mo began to stroll around the campus, and by sheer coincidence, he ran into Hachiman Hikigaya, who was eating in a corner of the stairwell!

Lin Mo's eyes lit up instantly. He walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "There's no time to explain! Hachiman, let's go overthrow Yukino Yukinoshita's rule!"

Hachiman Hikigaya looked completely bewildered: "!??"

Chapter 88 The eldest brother shouldered his luggage

The food he had just picked up fell back into his lunchbox. Hachiman Hikigaya's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "No way, you managed to find me even when I was hiding here? You must be using a cheat code!"

How many times has this happened? How many times has this happened already! I just want to eat a quiet meal by myself, is that so hard?!

Lin Mo shook his head and said, "Cheating? I don't like that word. As everyone knows, a little bit of cheating doesn't count as cheating, and a lot of cheating doesn't count as cheating. I've just packed my bags."

Hachiman Hikigaya revealed a dead fish eye. Good grief, he's not even going to act anymore, is he?

Hachiman Hikigaya sighed softly and said, "So, what do you want from me?"

Lin Mo said with fervor, "The president is incompetent and tyrannical, monopolizing power and oppressing us ordinary people. If this continues, when will we ever be able to stand up? As the saying goes, Yukino is dead, Lin Tian shall rise! As long as you and I work together, we can definitely overthrow Yukino's tyranny and seize her throne! When that happens, you will have rendered meritorious service, and I will appoint you as vice president, second only to the president!"

Hachiman Hikigaya said calmly, "Thank you, but it's not necessary."

Lin Mo said with exasperation, "Is this all the ambition you have? What about your dignity as a man?!"

Hachiman Hikigaya: "That thing was lost a long time ago. If there's nothing else, please leave. I need to continue eating."

Lin Mo snatched Hachiman Hikigaya's bento box and, to Hachiman's utter bewilderment, devoured it in just a few bites.

Lin Mo tapped his forehead and said, "Still eating! I'm here to take you away!"

Hachiman Hikigaya stood up, furious: "That was a bento that Komachi made for me! You bastard, spit it out right now!"

He was about to rush over and have a samurai duel with Lin Mo, but Lin Mo suppressed him with a counterattack.

Lin Mo sighed and said, "Hachiman, if you had shown even half the courage to deal with Yukino, I wouldn't have treated you like this."

Hachiman Hikigaya, pinned to the ground, tried to break free from Lin Mo's grasp, but with little success.

Hachiman Hikigaya retorted, "I have no grudge against Yukinoshita, so why should I help you deal with her? Besides, it's your family matter. What right do I, an outsider, have to interfere?"

Lin Mo frowned and said, "Family matters? What do you mean by that?"

Hearing Lin Mo's confused expression, Hachiman Hikigaya realized that he had let something slip, so he simply pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Don't you know? Everyone is saying that you have married into the Yukinoshita family and are Yukinoshita's kept man."

Lin Mo flew into a rage: "Bullshit! I'm worth hundreds of millions, how could I possibly be eating! Which bastard is spreading this rumor? I have to have a good talk with him!"

Hachiman Hikigaya said helplessly, "How would I know who spread the rumor? By the time I found out, it had already spread throughout the entire school. Also, could you please take your feet off my back? It's really uncomfortable, get lost!"

Lin Mo then realized that he was still stepping on Hachiman Hikigaya, and quickly pulled him up, saying, "Sorry, sorry, I didn't realize it for a moment."

Hachiman Hikigaya dusted himself off and said, "In short, your status as a gigolo is set in stone, and there's absolutely no chance of turning things around."

Lin Mo was planning to spend several billion at Zongwu High School to prove his strength, but then he thought about it. The doctor had said that he had a bad stomach and could only live off women, so he was not a gigolo, but was following the doctor's advice!

After figuring it out, Lin Mo stopped dwelling on the matter. He smiled and patted Hachiman Hikigaya on the shoulder, saying, "I noticed you haven't had lunch yet. Here, have some bread to tide you over. Don't be shy, we're brothers!"

Hachiman Hikigaya looked at the three loaves of bread in his hand, his lips twitching slightly. "Whose fault do you think it is that I didn't eat lunch?!"

Lin Mo: "By the way, I haven't met your sister yet. I'll visit you at your house another day."

Hachiman Hikigaya immediately became alert and asked warily, "What do you want?"

Lin Mo: "I won't do it!"

Hikigaya Hachiman: "???"

Lin Mo coughed twice and said, "What I mean is, I just want to get to know your sister, that's all. After all, other people's sisters are always the best."

Hachiman Hikigaya quickly shook his head and said, "Impossible! As long as I'm alive, I will never let you get close to Komachi!"

Lin Mo put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Hey~ there's no need for us brothers to be so polite, it's settled then! Oh, and here's an orange for you, grown by God himself, goodbye!"

After saying that, Lin Mo turned and left, not giving Hachiman Hikigaya a chance to refuse.

Looking at the orange in his hand, Hachiman Hikigaya said with a firm gaze, "I will absolutely not let you succeed. I will protect Komachi's happiness!"

After saying goodbye to Hachiman Hikigaya, Lin Mo wandered around the school again. When it was almost time, he returned to the classroom to start his class.

Before they knew it, the day was over. In the afternoon, when it was time for club activities, Lin Mo ran to Hachiman Hikigaya's classroom as soon as get out of class ended to block him and dragged him to the Service Club.

Hachiman Hikigaya clutched his stomach and said, "Oh dear, my stomach suddenly hurts a bit. I'm afraid I can't participate in club activities today."

Lin Mo: "Simple, let Professor Hiratsuka treat you. After all, Professor Hiratsuka is also wearing a white coat, so he must know some medical skills."

Hachiman Hikigaya immediately stood up straight and said, "That's strange, my stomach suddenly stopped hurting."

If Hiratsuka-sensei were to treat me, my fake stomachache would probably turn into a real stomachache.

And so, the five members of the club gathered together once again!

Lin Mo clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention and then said, "Now that everyone is here, let me announce something. I think Yukino is completely unfit to be the president of the club!"

The moment the words were spoken, the atmosphere became tense.

Yukino Yukinoshita smiled slightly and said with interest, "Oh? So what do you want to do?"

Lin Mo: "Since ancient times, it has been said that those who win the hearts of the people win the world. If a person does not have the support of the people, does he deserve to be the president? So I think we should hold a new election for president, and let everyone vote. What do you think?"

Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head and said, "No, why should I give up being a good club president and have to participate in this meaningless vote?"

Lin Mo stood up and leaned closer, saying, "Meaningless? How is it meaningless to hold a new election for president? Or are you scared, Yukino?"

Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes sharpened instantly. She stood up, crossed her arms, and calmly said, "That's a really low-level provocation, but I agree. I'll take this opportunity to completely crush your hopes."

Lin Mo smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then it's decided! Those who support me as president, stand next to me; those who support Yukino as president, stand next to Yukino."

As soon as she finished speaking, Rikka Takanashi instantly appeared beside Lin Mo and said seriously, "I also think it's time for us to have a better leader. The people in the organization are watching us all the time, but Yuki-onna, as the president, is indifferent. She is simply unworthy of her position!"

Lin Mo: "Well said!"

Yui Yuigahama hesitated for a moment, then approached Yukino Yukinoshita with an apologetic expression and said, "I'm sorry."

The score is now tied one to one, and we're just one crucial vote away!

Chapter 89 Three Heads and Six Arms Combination

Lin Mo and Yukino Yukinoshita immediately looked at Hachiman Hikigaya. Their sharp gazes startled Hachiman, who was afraid that the two of them would come over and tear him apart at any moment.

Yukino Yukinoshita crossed her arms and said, "Hachigaya-kun, I believe you will make the right choice."

Indeed, if Lin Mo becomes the president, my life will probably be an unimaginable disaster. Not only me, but the entire Service Department will probably be in chaos!

Lin Mo: "Hachiman, we are best friends! Have you forgotten the passionate bond between us?!"

I get angry just thinking about it. Is your so-called passionate bond just about leaving me behind and facing Hiratsuka-sensei's iron fist all by myself?

Thinking of all the things Lin Mo had done for him, Hachiman Hikigaya nodded firmly at Lin Mo. Lin Mo wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, pounded his chest, and said that his good brother was in his heart!

Then, under Lin Mo's moved gaze, Hachiman Hikigaya came to Yukino Yukinoshita's side without hesitation.

Lin Mo cursed, "Give me back my gratitude, you bastard!"

Seeing Lin Mo's exasperated expression, Hachiman Hikigaya felt incredibly relieved. It hadn't been easy; he had finally turned the tables!

Hachiman Hikigaya smiled and said, "I'm sorry, but I would still choose Yukinoshita over the president who sent you! After all, she is far superior to you in every way. Anyone would probably make the same decision."

Yukino Yukinoshita gave Hachiman Hikigaya an approving look and said, "A wise choice!"

Then, looking at Lin Mo with a smug expression, he said, "The result is obvious; I am still the president of the Service Club."

Lin Mo said indignantly, "I'm not convinced! I believe this vote was rigged! I demand a second round!"

Rikka Takanashi agreed wholeheartedly, saying, "That's right, it was definitely the Snow Woman who bewitched Hachiman Bodhisattva! I demand another round!"

Yukino Yukinoshita said calmly, "Rejected! This kind of boring farce only needs to happen once, because the result is the same no matter how many times it happens."

Lin Mo: "What gives you the right to reject this? This is hegemony! I'm going to report you!"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Lin Mo, don't forget that I'm the club president!"

Lin Mo: "Yukino! You'll regret this!"

"boom--"

Lin Mo slammed the door and left again, and Rikka Takanashi chased after him.

Seeing Lin Mo so humiliated for the first time, Hikigaya Hachiman's smile widened even more, and he said, "Now that the voting is over, it's time for the old prince to go home. Goodbye."

Yukino Yukinoshita sat down again and said, "The voting is over, but that doesn't mean the club activities are over. If you go back early, you won't get any credits, so it's better if you stay quietly until it's over."

Hachiman Hikigaya's face darkened. He felt that Lin Mo was absolutely right. Yukino Yukinoshita was a hegemon. He should have voted for Lin Mo instead.

Hachiman Hikigaya sighed resignedly, sat down, and said, "I understand."

Damn it, why didn't Lin Mo say a word when he left, but started threatening me as soon as I said I wanted to go home? Sure enough, the rumors were right. You two should just get married already!

Yui Yuigahama said with some concern, "Um... is this really okay?"

Yukino Yukinoshita said confidently, "Don't worry, Lin Mo will probably be back soon."

Yui Yuigahama hesitated, but you said the same thing at noon. Lin Mo didn't come back at all during his lunch break.

Of course, in the end, Yui Yuigahama still didn't say those words.

After leaving the club building, Lin Mo grew angrier and angrier: "You bastard, Hachiman! I treated you like a brother and even treated you to lunch. Is this how you treat me?!"

Rikka Takanashi comforted him, "Lin Mo, Hachiman Bodhisattva has definitely been bewitched by the Snow Woman. He hasn't regained his power yet, so it's only natural that he's been charmed. Right now, the most urgent thing is to help Hachiman Bodhisattva regain his power and memories, and then hold another vote!"

Lin Mo quickly replied, "Well said! But how can we help Hachiman regain his memories? Should I steal his middle school diary when I visit his house? Or should I just ask his sister?"

Rikka Takanashi: "I think the best way is to fight. As long as I can experience that feeling of walking between life and death again, I believe that Hachiman Bodhisattva will be able to recover!"

Just then, Satania suddenly walked over: "Motian Emperor, Evil King's True Eye Messenger, school's over, why aren't you going home yet?"

Lin Mo: "Because I'm joining a club. What about you? Why aren't you going back?"
