god of tomorrow

He wore glasses and had slightly messy hair. There were also marks left from biting a pencil at the corner of his mouth, which made his otherwise handsome and youthful face look like that of a middle-aged man.

With a little dressing up, she should be very cute; she's a potential beauty.

In terms of temperament, he was inferior; he was timid and submissive. In terms of both height and presence, he was much shorter than Hervy and seemed easy to bully.

This is outrageous!

Chapter 41 Fame Has Both Good and Bad

"President, this is tomorrow's headline. Do you think it's acceptable?" Becky handed over the draft, waiting for Hervy to make the final decision.

show me!

Gao Wen peered in, but his vision went black as soon as he saw the title; memories that had been dead for many years began to attack him again.

[Shocking! Twenty history students were tragically sacrificed by Chaos. What happened behind the scenes? Was it a distortion of humanity or a decline in morality?]

"Yes, but the shocking word should be bolded and enlarged to make it stand out at a glance."

Hervy pointed out a few minor flaws, harmless issues, but she had to; it was a skill every leader needed to master, otherwise they would appear clueless.

Becky left with the manuscript in her arms. The sight of the other party's back made Gao Wen feel a sense of familiarity. They were the same; he had gone through the same ordeal back then.

"President, was that the vice president just now?"

"No, Becky is the editor-in-chief and the president's secretary."

"You're so hardworking, you must earn a lot of money, right?"

"500."

"Isn't 500 the internship salary?"

"She keeps making mistakes and is still in the internship evaluation stage. It's been three years, and I'm so worried about her."

Herwi looked at her with exasperation: "Three years ago, I saw her arrive at the university town alone by train. Her family was of modest means, and she couldn't even afford to order three dishes for a meal, treating it like feeding a cat. I, the president of the journalism club, am the kindest person. I not only took her back to her dormitory, but also brought her into the journalism club, promoted her, took care of her, and gave her a chance to earn money with her own hands. Who would have thought that she's still on probation?"

Damn it, look at your ugly capitalist face!

Gao Wen was extremely disdainful and secretly vowed that when he became the president of the company, he would also find a secretary who was obedient, capable, hardworking, and lived at home.

“Gao Wen, you’re still young. Don’t always think about your salary. Don’t have such thoughts that are not conducive to unity. Others will have opinions… How about this, I, the club president, will pay for the meal allowance out of my own pocket. You come with me tomorrow and we’ll continue to eat at the buffet.”

"..."

You're being so kind, but you're clearly after my ten million!

……

By the time Gao Wen returned to his dormitory, it was already 8 p.m.

I feel like we can't keep doing this tomorrow. It's disrupting his tutoring sessions every two days and affecting his meditation practice. If he doesn't secretly compete with others, how will he outcompete them?

In the living room, Hill and Hugh were both sitting on the sofa with serious expressions, as if they were discussing something important.

Gawain saw right through Hill; he knew Hill couldn't possibly be up to anything good. He figured that since he couldn't wait for him anyway, Hill was just trying to get Hugh to go out for drinks and parties.

"Gawain, you're back!"

Seeing Gawain appear unharmed, Hill was first taken aback, then overjoyed: "Great! I heard you were kidnapped by the red-haired devil from the journalism department. My cousin and I were just discussing how to rescue you!"

"Come on, it's been six or seven hours since noon. By the time you save me, the protein will have gone bad." Gao Wen said dismissively.

“You can’t say that. After all, she’s the number one bully in the Philosophy Department. Even the Dean avoids her. If my cousin and I don’t prepare well, what if we end up being detained instead of saving you? What if she sees that I’m handsome and humiliates me in front of you?” Hill said confidently, with her own set of reasons.

Bah, I think you're just dreaming!

Gawain was rolling his eyes when Hugh explained, "Gawain, Hill didn't come to your rescue in time because he'd been beaten up before..."

"Hey, is that how you explain it?" Hill yelled, trying to drown out Hugh's voice.

The effect was so-so. Gao Wen heard everything clearly, and happily sat down on the sofa, asking Hugh to describe the passage in detail.

I didn't mean anything by it, I just thought it was interesting.

During his freshman year, Hill, taking advantage of his youth and wealth, flirted with female upperclassmen at school. The news agency, quick to seize the opportunity and selling point, exaggerated Hill's scandal in its reports.

Hill was furious and stormed into the news agency to demand an explanation, whereupon he immediately fell into a deep, baby-like sleep.

From then on, Hill became a regular contributor to the school newspaper, and Hervy would bring him out whenever the newspaper's sales were low.

School matters should be resolved within the school. Since Hill couldn't handle Hervy, he decisively stopped hanging out on campus. This is also why, despite being wealthy, he never supported a female senior.

It's not that I can't, but my body can't handle it.

"My cousin is talking nonsense again. Gao Wen, don't listen to his nonsense. I'm not cowardly. It's just that the world outside of school is much more open and exciting for me."

Hill was naturally unconvinced, saying that there are plenty of fish in the sea, why look for them at school when there aren't many to begin with and the quality isn't good either.

"You're just a coward, after all, your reputation is already ruined." Gao Wen was overjoyed.

"A reputation can be good or bad. Yesterday it was pure love, today it's perverted. Does it really matter?" Hill remained defiant.

"You chickened out..."

After several attempts, Hill became furious: "I'm not backing down. If you don't believe me, I'll go to the medical school tomorrow and ask the senior nurse to polish and maintain my staff."

Seeing Hill's anger and embarrassment, and his apparent readiness to act, Gawain exclaimed that it was unnecessary. He only wanted to tease him and didn't intend for the guy to cause trouble for others. It was more suitable for Hill to just enter the physical world and not the streets and alleys of life.

"Speaking of perverts, where's your female knight? Why hasn't she arrived yet?"

"..."

Hill remained silent.

"I said we could meet on Sunday, and tomorrow will be the third day. If we still haven't met, let's not make the appointment."

Gao Wen offered his advice based on experience: if a woman doesn't come out after three attempts to meet her, don't contact her again; even Prime Minister Zhuge Liang wasn't that hard to get a date with.

"Damn it, I'll bring her here tomorrow even if I have to tie her up."

"Personally, I think it's better not to tie him up, it'll be reported." Gao Wen showed off his camera, which was indeed the camera of the brother he had betrayed.

"Hiss hiss hiss—"

Hill gasped, and Hugh, standing next to him, also cast a surprised glance at the camera.

It's not that they haven't seen a camera before, but rather that they infer from the camera that Gao Wen has already joined the news agency.

"Gao Wen, tell me, did that woman coerce and threaten you, and did she do this to you, that to you, and that to you?"

I'd love to!

"What are you thinking? I joined the news agency voluntarily."

"Ah, this..."

Hill was dumbfounded and said dryly, "I didn't expect that... But that's right, our traditional aristocracy is diverse, and what you have is quite common, it's not a big problem."

Gao Wen rolled his eyes. He didn't have that kind of fetish. He would laugh when he was the Dominant and fight back when he was the Submissive. His XP was always online.

“Gawain, we’re brothers, don’t play mind games with your brother. Tell me the truth, are you interested in that woman?” Hill advised Gawain not to waste his time. Hervy was impeccable in terms of looks and figure, but her personality was too violent, definitely not a good choice for romance.

It's for the campus reporter's pass for the news agency, which allows access to student files and free movement between other campuses!

Joining the news agency has many benefits; if Gao Wen had known this long ago, he would have joined the news agency long ago.

There's one downside: the school newspaper and news agency often require overtime, and the president, always looking for big news to make money, would never allow members to take leave.

If you have to work overtime before you time travel, and you still have to work overtime after you time travel, then what's the point of time travel?

Gao Wen pondered a reason for not having to work overtime. He figured that paying more money would solve the problem, but he was afraid that Herwi wouldn't be satisfied. The more he gave her, the more she would want. In the end, he would become the second dean's grandson.

If all else fails, I'll become a foreign correspondent, specializing in reporting on Hill's scandals.

My good brother, you'll forgive me, right?

Gawain asked a profound question, and seeing that Hill did not refute it, he was deeply moved by his brotherly affection and vowed not to let his brother's reputation be damaged in vain, and that he would definitely enjoy his happy leisure time.

"Gawain, say something!"

Hill tried to persuade him for a long time, but seeing that Gawain remained silent, she couldn't help but get anxious, fearing that her brother and Hervy would get together, making her daily life even more difficult.

He certainly doesn't care about his reputation, but it can't be too bad either, otherwise his fatherly love, which is like a landslide, would be really painful.

Gawain had already prepared a reason, one that perfectly matched Hill's character: "To be honest, I joined the news agency for a press pass that would allow me to legally enter other campuses. On my first day of school, I met a girl from the Mechanical Engineering department, and it was love at first sight. I can't forget her."

"Mechanical Engineering? Those are rare finds. What do they look like?"

"Big chest and long legs, she's really good-looking."

"Hehehe..." x2

"..." x3

"Cousin, don't look at me like that. I think Gao Wenxiao was just going along with it, otherwise he would be very embarrassed."

Hill offered a sophistry to Hugh, then ignored him as he shook his head and left. He turned to Gawain and said, "Continue. What's that girl's name? Tell me, maybe I've heard it before."

"How would I know? All I know is that she looks really... hot."

"Hehehe..." x2

Gao Wen briefly described that person, slightly modified the parameters to make the theme clear, the central idea prominent, and the content rich in humanistic connotation, even capturing the feeling of Hill pushing back.

“Look at you, you already have a girl you like, your transformation is just around the corner, and I’m still single. Aren’t you going to give me a hand?” Hill blinked pitifully, one hand wasn’t enough, he wanted Gawain to give him a few more.

Gao Wen ignored him and went upstairs to meditate.

Hill followed along, saying, "Fine, you don't have to help me, but please help my cousin Hugh. He's been single his whole life, he's so pitiful."

"The main reason why someone like Hugh can remain single is himself."

Gawain grumbled, “The Third Prince is handsome, refined, and charming. With such qualities, he’s still single and definitely doesn’t want to date. I remember that day in the school cafeteria, Hugh was surrounded by a lot of noble ladies.”

"Who says otherwise..."

Hill was heartbroken and furious: "Once, the Minister of Education's granddaughter mustered up the courage to confess her feelings to her cousin on the playground. There were many people there. Her cousin smiled, took her hand, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, 'I don't like you, but now we can leave hand in hand.'"

Holy crap, he's so good at this!

What girl could stand this? The granddaughter of the Minister of Education would be in tears on the spot!

Gao Wen exclaimed that he had learned something and was just waiting for a chance to be confessed to on the playground.

"How about giving your cousin a hand?"
