Hearing Li Zuhao’s words, Hao Tianhui was startled inside, but on the surface, she remained calm.
“Not necessarily, it still depends on the internal election. But if he falls, I’m confident I can take the president’s seat. Why are you asking?”
Her tone feigned indifference, as if she didn’t care either way.
“I just got some dirt on President Lei. I can take him down and help you become president.”
Li Zuhao said.
“What dirt?”
Hao Tianhui pressed.
Li Zuhao took out the Bullhead Diary and handed it to Hao Tianhui without reservation, showing great trust.
Hao Tianhui took the Bullhead Diary and flipped through a few pages, expressionless and unimpressed.
She scoffed as she analyzed it: “What’s the big deal? Everyone in the circle knows President Lei plays around. Isn’t that exactly the kind of thing you rich kids love doing? Aren’t you that type of person too?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, I’m part of the Pure Love Faction. I don’t like stealing other people’s girlfriends.”
Li Zuhao retorted.
“You used to have dozens of girlfriends and call that pure love?”
Hao Tianhui said coldly, anger flashing in her eyes.
“That was just talk. If I really had that many girlfriends, I wouldn’t have gotten beaten into this pig-headed mess.”
Li Zuhao said bitterly, half-smiling.
“What’s in it for you if you go after President Lei?”
Hao Tianhui asked again.
“My parents used to be your parents’ backing, but they passed away. Now it’s my turn to help you.”
Li Zuhao said.
“Hmph, so you want to cling to my thigh? You pretended not to know me at the hospital, but now you finally remember me?”
Hao Tianhui sneered.
“I thought you’d despise me and wouldn’t dare acknowledge me. You don’t have to do anything but sit back and wait. I’ll help you earn the president’s seat, and even if I fail, you won’t be held responsible.”
Li Zuhao said solemnly.
“Whatever.”
Hao Tianhui stood up coldly and left without a trace of warmth, as if uninterested in his suggestion.
Of course, inside she was grinning from ear to ear.
This is the benefit of power!
Even if I don’t do anything, there will be people scrambling to be my dog.
Let Li Zuhao fight President Lei to the death; I’ll just sit back and reap the rewards.
If he succeeds, I become president.
If he fails, it’s his own death, nothing to do with me.
“I didn’t expect that without Tianyan, this useless little bug still has some use, haha.”
Hao Tianhui muttered mockingly as she walked away.
Unbeknownst to her, Li Zuhao’s gaze fixed on her retreating figure, seeing right through her true intentions at a glance.
This woman is a power animal, willing to use any means to climb up.
Li Zuhao had already seen through her nature when she disguised herself as the Ghost Masked Nurse to seduce him.
She thought he didn’t know she was the nurse and was still putting on a show in front of him—how laughable.
But even knowing she was just using him, Li Zuhao still planned to help Hao Tianhui reach the peak of power.
Because that’s my plan.
A woman like her is willing to lose everything before reaching the pinnacle of power.
Love, family—none of it matters compared to authority.
At this stage of her rising career, trying to win her heart is impossible.
So I’ll help her gain power and everything she desires; only then will she look back at the things she’s lost along the way, those irretrievable qualities.
People are just so despicable—they’re never satisfied.
“You’ve fallen into my trap, Hao Tianhui.”
Li Zuhao’s expression gradually hardened.
Because the strategy for all the main targets had already been drafted in his mind.
The prelude was complete; he no longer needed to doubt.
He picked up the Bullhead Diary and left the stadium, heading in the opposite direction from Vice President Hao Tianhui.
But Li Zuhao didn’t go home after school.
He went to the nearby Sports Club base.
There were many small buildings arranged here, all sports clubs.
Among them, the largest dojo was the Kendo Dojo’s training hall.
But he only went to the storage room at the back, picked up a broom and dustpan, and began diligently sweeping fallen leaves nearby.
The moment Li Zuhao arrived, he was spotted by Sports Club informants nearby, who quickly reported back to their respective ministers.
This included the Kendo Club.
The Kendo Club had quite a few conflicts with Li Zuhao.
Most of the female members resented him because he often spied on the Kendo Club’s changing room.
He never peeped into other sports clubs’ changing rooms, only the Kendo Club’s.
“There he is!”
“Little Fly Bug dares to show up again?”
“Last time, Ace Sakiharu taught him a lesson, and he’s still not afraid to die?”
“Looking for trouble! Sisters, beat him up!”
A large group of fully armed Kendo Club female members charged out from the dojo, surrounding Li Zuhao with fury.
“F…Fit?”
But Li Zuhao looked pitiful and confused, holding a broom and dustpan, just doing a good deed.
“You…are you planning to spy again?”
A senior Kendo Club member raised her wooden sword and pointed it at his face, angrily scolding him.
But Li Zuhao’s pitiful act was quite skilled.
Even the Kendo Club’s Ace had already fallen for it, so the other seniors and juniors refrained from attacking him outright.
“No, I’m carrying out the Campus Service Order.”
Li Zuhao explained.
“Campus service? You?”
The senior Kendo Club member looked skeptical.
“This despicable little bug doing campus service? Daydreaming! A national scandal!”
“Do you think we’d believe you? Do you believe your own words?” a junior member questioned.
Li Zuhao pointed to the Service Armband on his shoulder to prove he was officially authorized.
Seeing the Sinner’s Armband, the Kendo Club sisters exchanged glances.
Although they still didn’t trust Li Zuhao, they couldn’t just swing wooden swords at an official.
Especially one covered in wounds.
With no choice, they sent someone to inform Ace Sakiharu to come judge this little fly bug.
“You’re wrapped in so many bandages—are you pretending to be pitiful?” a junior Kendo Club member sharply doubted.
“Uh…”
Li Zuhao hesitated, about to speak.
“See? He’s definitely faking it.”
The junior member became more convinced.
“What’s wrong with your eye? You wear an eyepatch every day like some chuunibyou. And your hand? Are those bandages just for show? Let us see it, or we won’t feel comfortable letting you hang around here.”
The senior member challenged him.
“Fine.”
Li Zuhao had been waiting for this moment, eager for someone to see his hollow eye socket.
But he moved very slowly because he was still waiting for someone.
“What’s going on? What’s going on?”
A voice, both clear as a heavenly melody and professional, sounded from behind.
The graceful and spirited Sakiharu was pushed forward by the Kendo Club sisters to the front of the crowd.
At that very moment…
Li Zuhao finally dared to remove his eyepatch.
