Chapter 58: The Ultimate Move! (Part 2)

Lu Shu had never been interested in Liu Li’s family business but these few days, he had noticed the posh car with car plate ‘99999’ that fetched Liu Li from school. Although a poor bloke like Lu Shu could not identify the brand, he knew that it was not a car normal people could afford.

But this did not concern Lu Shu, other people’s wealth was none of his business.

Hearing that Liu Li’s father was trying to recruit metahumans made Lu Shu feel like they ‘had too much money so they might as well recruit some metahumans for fun’.

Some bosses out there liked to say, “I’m not educated but my employees are all smart and brilliant. In the end, these people are still under me, right?”

This metaphor may not be the best but the idea was there.

But regardless of what others felt, Lu Shu hated that idea, and he rebutted Liu Li for half a day which made him speechless!

Liu Li took a deep breath, “Lu Shu, your family is poor so this may be a very rare opportunity…”

Lu Shu’s twitched his mouth, “you’re not truly happy.”

This stunned Liu Li. What did that mean? Why the sudden awkward line? Wasn’t that the title of the band Mayday’s song? He thought for 2mins before replying, “your smile is just your method for protection?”

Lu Shu shook his head in disappointment, “you’re not truly happy, but I am.”

Liu Li almost pissed his pants. This guy must be crazy!

I’m talking to you about recruiting matters and here you are telling me weird song lyrics and all your weird replies!

What happiness could you possibly have, can poor blokes even be happy?!

How could such a person exist?

“From Liu Li’s distress, +411!”

But to Lu Shu, despite his poverty, he and Lu Xiaoyu were good at finding happiness during tough times and were in fact happy. So he felt that he was indeed happier than Liu Li. As for the awkward lines, his talent of getting on other’s nerves activated and just blurted them out, how smooth!

Annoyed, Liu Li left and Jiang Shuyi tucked his head down. “Go ahead and laugh, why keep it in?” , Lu Shu coughed.

“Hahahaha,” Jiang Shuyi couldn’t tolerate it anymore. He had realized that this deskie of his was really talented in some areas!

But on second thought, Jiang Shuyi really admired Lu Shu’s mindset. He had also heard about Lu Shu’s case, being an orphan, bringing along a little sister, having to sell eggs in the morning to feed his family and despite all that, he could still maintain excellent grades.

The most important thing about him was that despite his obstacle-filled life, he wasn’t greedy.

But truthfully, Lu Shu did not want to earn Liu Li’s money for two reasons- one was that he did not wish to create problems and two, it was something he had no interest in.

After Liu Li had left, Lu Shu noticed multiple classmates, including some of the new transfer students, had gathered around this class rep.

Classes had ended as everyone went to the canteen for lunch and Lu Shu saw the group of them sitting around and enthusiastically discussing something. There seemed to be a myriad of complicated feelings as some were sniggering while others had a judgemental look.

From Liu Li’s point of view, he had tier B aptitude and once training started in Daoyuan class, he would definitely leave Lu Shu behind.

Recruiting Lu Shu was an act of kindness from Liu Li’s part and he was willing to let go of past grudges only to be rebutted which almost made him question himself.

The current Liu Li was just a high school student and how shrewd could a high school student be? Not having his emotions written on his face was already an achievement.

Someone teased, “What’s wrong, failed in recruiting a Class F?”

Liu Li scorned, “It would be the same with or without him.”

Lu Shu was rather calm as he took a deep breath before taking out his lunchbox. Today’s lunch was rather special and it was all for the distress points, hope no one blames me…

The moment Lu Shu opened his lunchbox, a radius of 50m around Lu Shu was suddenly hit with the stench of stinky tofu…

Liu Li and friends were still chatting merrily when they suddenly realized the stench…

“The sh*t, what is that!” Someone took his lunchbox and left.

Everyone turned towards Lu Shu as the stench had originated from there, only to see Lu Shu let out a smile, revealing a white set of teeth, “Specially-made stinky tofu, made it myself. Are you guys surprised?”

“From Liu Li’s distress….”

“From Yuan Lingqi’s distress…”

Who would have expected Lu Shu to suddenly make such a move, instantly affecting a whole bunch of people!

A wave of income came in and Lu Shu’s total distress points to a grand total of 18k. What a result, not only could he complete the 7th star and it would also not affect his stinky tofu business the next day! Perfect!

Lu Shu felt that since he was still lacking in distress points, he could as well save some stinky tofu for lunch which could act as a ‘mass-killing weapon’. Indeed, the effect was tremendous.

Insulting others could also generate distress points but Lu Shu felt that this method was quite extreme and it was something the society could never accept!

He also considered eating stinky tofu on a public bus when the passengers had nowhere to escape, which would definitely cause a breakthrough in distress points but this was also too extreme.

Lu Shu did not share the exact same values as the society but instead, had a set of his own rules to follow.

In comparison, causing distress to these classmates who never got along with him did not result in any guilty conscience in Lu Shu.

The most important thing was feeling good about yourself and despite what others may say, Lu Shu just wanted to have a clear conscience.

Everyone saw Lu Shu taking his time with his stinky tofu and decided to leave. Who knew how long this scum would take to eat?!

However, while everyone was trying to escape, Jiang Shuyi carried his plate and sat in front of Lu Shu, “I like stinky tofu, can we exchange?”

Lu Shu checked his records and indeed, there was none from Jiang Shuyi. Seems like this guy really likes stinky tofu.

“Here,” Lu Shu gave his remaining stinky tofus to Jiang Shuyi who in return gave her plate of rice to Lu Shu.

At this point in time, Jiang Shuyi was a godly existence. One reason was his good-looks which many guys had misunderstood him for; the second was that everyone knew he had tier B aptitude and a bright future.

According to Jiang Shuyi’s previous schoolmate, his family was quite well to do but how well, Lu Shu wasn’t sure.

This series of reasons caused other classmates to look up to Jiang Shuyi and this godly existence was not sitting in front of the much-hated Lu Shu.

The sight of it annoyed everyone. When did these two start hanging out?

As a matter of fact, Lu Shu was surprised too…
