"May I?"

"Of course not."

"That won't work."

After saying that, Lin Qianshu obediently placed his hand on Ma Yi's stomach.

Feeling the warmth in her stomach, the girl was still a little shy, but she seemed to agree and did not ask Lin Qianshu to remove his hand.

Will I disappear?

"No, I've already made arrangements."

What does "it's all arranged" mean?

"Mai will find out when we get back to school tomorrow morning."

"So mysterious?"

"Hmph, I've sacrificed a lot for Mai-kun, and of course I'll make it up to her without hesitation later!"

"Don't make grand promises, or you'll end up with nothing."

"It will win."

Hearing Lin Qianshu's voice, Mai's uneasy heart gradually calmed down, and an irresistible drowsiness surged into her heart.

With their breathing even, the two drifted off to sleep.

Chapter 87 Even supernatural events cannot overshadow the brilliance of money.

The next morning, the pre-set phone ringtone rang.

Lin Qianshu opened her sleepy eyes, picked up her phone to check the time, and then stared at the unfamiliar ceiling.

What am I doing here?

The moment the thought crossed my mind, a strange memory flooded back.

Lin Qianshu instinctively sensed something was wrong; these memories felt somewhat incongruous. Subconsciously, he used his 'photographic memory'.

This skill not only allows him to remember everything he sees, but his brain also becomes exceptionally active during the activation process.

After sorting out his thoughts for about a minute, Lin Qianshu finally realized that something was wrong.

He opened the system's delegation panel, staring intently at the 'empty slot' at the top. He could faintly hear a sound, which was initially weak but became clearer as time passed.

"Lin Qianshu... Lin Qianshu..."

"Mai-kun!"

Like a bubble being popped, Lin Qianshu subconsciously called out this name.

Then a familiar pretty face came into his view. Mai looked like she was about to cry, her hands tightly gripping his collar.

Lin Qianshu embraced the girl and said, "I still remember you, Mai-kun."

"Hmm..." Mai did not resist, and obediently let out a whimper, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Where Mai couldn't see, a flicker of fear flashed in Lin Qianshu's eyes. He finally understood the true value of a time-limited commission.

Even with a photographic memory, one cannot necessarily rest easy.

This is like someone holding a cell phone and making a call while simultaneously searching for their phone, only to find it impossible to locate it.

While photographic memory is powerful, what good is it if you subconsciously ignore Mai and don't recall the memories of being with her?

After a long while, Mai's body stopped trembling. She pressed her hand on Lin Qianshu's chest with a little force, supporting herself up.

"I'm all right."

"Um... I'm sorry to have worried you."

Mai shook her head. It was already quite good that Lin Qianshu could remember her; she just didn't know how long this situation could last...

Thinking this, a shadow crossed Mai's eyes.

But she quickly composed herself, forcing a smile as she said, "Let's go, it's time to go back to school."

“Yes, it’s time to go back to school.” Lin Qianshu nodded.

Aside from the stockings Mai no longer wanted to wear, which she stuffed into her bag, they didn't have much luggage to pack, so they quickly went downstairs to check out.

On the train back, Mai suddenly spoke up again: "Hey, let's kiss?"

Lin Qianshu immediately saw through her thoughts: "Is Mai worried that if she misses this opportunity, she will never have another chance?"

"..." Mai didn't speak, but the expression on her face clearly conveyed that meaning.

"Well, before that, let's sign this first." Lin Qianshu handed over his phone.

Mai took the phone and found it was an electronic contract, and the cover of the contract clearly stated...

"Sakurajima Mai Scholarship?"

A big question mark appeared above Sakurajima Mai's head.

I can understand each word individually, but when put together, they become incomprehensible.

"Yes, you'll need to sign a paper contract at the school later. Don't worry, there are no traps in it. Once you get to Fengyuan High School, a lawyer will explain it to you," Lin Qianshu said.

"Wait, a specialized lawyer?" Mai was confused by what Lin Qianshu said.

What is this all about?

“It’s a bit complicated to explain now, but it’s related to the abnormality of you. You’ll understand once you go to Fengyuan High School,” Lin Qianshu said.

Seeing that Lin Qianshu's expression didn't seem fake, Mai wanted to say something, but found that the other party had already put the phone away and was rapidly jumping two fingers across the screen, looking quite busy.

Faced with this situation, she had no choice but to temporarily suppress her doubts.

Because I didn't need to get off the bus like I did on the way there, the time it took to get back to school was greatly reduced.

It only took about an hour and a half for the two of them to return to the familiar platform.

"Let's go to Minegahara High School." Lin Qianshu didn't stop at the platform, but instead pulled Sakurajima Mai to transfer trains.

At this moment, many students from Minegahara High School can already be seen in the waiting area of ​​the station.

Unfortunately, these students still couldn't see Mai.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the plan goes smoothly, this situation will soon change.

After all, he donated real money, not only for scholarships, but also 300 million yen to build the Ma Yi Building.

This amount of money is quite substantial for a public high school like Fengyuan.

Not to mention that Lin Qianshu also said he didn't care whether a new building was built or not, as long as Fengyuan High School had a teaching building named Mai.

In return, it wouldn't be unreasonable for Lin Qianshu to borrow the campus radio to give a presentation on this matter, would it?

It wouldn't be unreasonable to organize students to watch movies that Mai Sakurajima once starred in, would it?

Is it unreasonable to use the school auditorium on a rest day to hold a press conference for Mai Sakurajima's return to performing arts?

After such a series of moves, Lin Qianshu didn't believe that the students of Fengyuan High School could still ignore Sakurajima Mai. Even if the students were stubborn and ignored Sakurajima Mai's existence, how could the teachers ignore her?

Ultimately, Mai Sakurajima's experience at school was largely due to the inaction of her teachers.

If the teacher had any sense, they would have simply assigned Mai to a group, appointed her as a class officer, or made her a student council member, and things wouldn't have turned out this way.

But it doesn't matter, now that Lin Qianshu has arrived, Fengyuan High School has a clear sky.

All kinds of skills, this is all about money paving the way.

Capital, isn't it amazing?

Jie Jie Jie...

Looking at Lin Qianshu, who was letting out a villainous laugh, Mai couldn't help but have a few black lines appear on her forehead.

So can someone tell her what this guy is planning to do?

Upon arriving at the station, Lin Qianshu took Mai's hand.

After getting off the bus and walking a distance, more and more students wearing Fengyuan High School uniforms gradually became the majority, which meant that they were getting closer and closer to Fengyuan High School.

Finally, the two arrived at Minegahara High School.

As Mai gazed at the classic red banner with white lettering erected at the school gate, and at the smiling school leaders standing there, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

However, before she could think too much, the principal of Minegahara High School immediately noticed Mai Sakurajima's presence.

The postmenopausal woman's face immediately lit up with a smile, and she quickly walked up to Mai Sakurajima. She grasped the hands of this renowned alumna who, even before graduating, had already begun donating to the school, and said in an incredibly affectionate tone:

"Mai-kun, we've been waiting for you for so long."

See? Even supernatural events can't overshadow the brilliance of money.

------

P.S.: I checked the backend and found that many people felt the amount was unreasonable. After checking online, I confirmed that it was indeed unreasonable, so I changed it.

Chapter 88 Killing three birds with one stone, victory!

In one morning, Mai met almost all the school leaders. In addition to signing a series of agreements, she also had to deal with the advisors who wanted her to join the campus clubs.

Although clubs on Japanese campuses are usually self-governed by students, this does not mean that the opinions of the advisors are unimportant. When necessary, the advisors' opinions can actually take precedence over those of the club presidents, since students are still just students after all.

As for why Sakurajima Mai was recruited into the club, it's quite simple: she's rich and can make popcorn.

In fact, these clubs don't need Mai Sakurajima's popcorn; they just need Mai Sakurajima to be in the clubs. So how could the school allocate less funding for the clubs?

Not to mention that Mai Sakurajima is a celebrity with such talent, she will inevitably become a well-known alumna of the school in the future. Having her can also serve as a promotional point for recruiting club members, which can be described as entirely beneficial.

Of course, Mai Sakurajima herself had no intention of joining any club. After all, she was already a senior in high school and would be graduating and taking entrance exams in about half a year. She didn't have that much time to go to any clubs.

Ultimately, unable to resist the warm hospitality of the school leaders, Mai Sakurajima chose to join the student council and serve as its honorary president.

Well... when Mai Sakurajima heard that she had become the honorary president of the student council, she was a little nervous. She had never heard of the position of honorary president of the student council during her three years at Minegahara High School. It was obvious that the school leaders had made this up to make her jealous.

Why would school leaders do this?

Because of Lin Qianshu.

After a busy morning, Mai Sakurajima had a general understanding of everything that Chiki Hayashi had done for her.

It was only after gaining a general understanding that Mai Sakurajima realized the true value of what Chiki Hayashi had said to her before going to bed the night before: "He sacrificed a lot for her."

He gave her 300 million yen in cash alone, and then there were scholarships and other expenses. It is conservatively estimated that Lin Qianshu invested at least 400 to 500 million yen in her, which is almost several times her acting income over the years.

Moreover, these things can't be solved simply by having money. To put it another way, if Mai Sakurajima donated the same amount of money, the final results would be worlds apart from those if Chiki Hayashi donated the same amount.

Judging from the commotion Lin Qianshu has made so far, simply donating money is far from enough to make the school leaders of Fengyuan High School so accommodating. The human and material costs involved, as well as the connections he has built, are far more valuable than the money he donated.

Of course, the final effect was immediate, as evidenced by the fact that Mai was noticed as soon as she entered the school. Although she is currently only at the level of a school leader, it is only a matter of time before Mai's problems are resolved as the subsequent projects are carried out.

"Now I owe him a lot..." Mai thought with a mixture of happiness and distress.

While Mai was busy, Lin Qianshu was also not idle.

As the actual investor, Lin Qianshu received the same or even better treatment as Mai, and judging from the attitude of the school leaders who accompanied the visit, it seemed that they wanted to recruit Lin Qianshu to their high school.

In the eyes of the leadership of Fengyuan High School, a student like Lin Qianshu, who has his own connections, can be considered a top student. Not to mention that his grades are also top-notch. He was able to get first place at Zongwu High School. Even if he got into Fengyuan High School, his grades would probably be a level above others.

Although both Minehara High School and Soubu High School are key high schools, there are still differences between key high schools.

However, Lin Qianshu had no intention of transferring schools. Just kidding. Not to mention the wish request he was still working on at Soubu High School, he couldn't possibly let go of Yukinoshita's golden request.

It's important to know that not only Yukino Yukinoshita has a gold-level wish request, but her older sister Haruno also has a gold-level wish request, and even comes with a purple-level wish request.

The allure of the Yukinoshita sisters to Lin Qianshu is essentially equivalent to two untapped gold mines.

Asking Lin Qianshu to give up their place at Fengyuan High School is obviously impossible, not to mention that Mai is graduating this year.

At noon, while Mai was still busy, Lin Qianshu politely declined the school leaders' invitation to go out for lunch and went to the cafeteria alone, intending to just have a casual meal.

Because the mealtime was almost over, there weren't many people left in the cafeteria.

After ordering his meal using his teacher's meal card, Lin Qianshu casually found a corner to sit down with a steaming bowl of ramen and began to enjoy his lunch at a leisurely pace. His gaze seemed to be unconsciously falling on empty space, but in reality, he was paying attention to the progress of Sakurajima Mai's request.

Upon seeing "Settling in Progress" displayed in the commission column, Lin Qianshu knew that this was a sure thing. Since it had entered the settlement stage, it meant that the disappearance of the anomaly on Sakurajima Mai was only a matter of time.

This also means that Lin Qianshu will soon receive the most generous reward in history—Mai's abilities, her heartfelt wishes, and a number of wish points.
