Shi Yue had joined the Student Union for several months, and it was nowhere near as glamorous as she had imagined. Instead, she was bombarded with trivial tasks, all involving running errands, doing odd jobs, and handing out flyers.
It was exhausting, and she didn’t learn anything of value.
"Minister, did you want to see ?"
Shi Yue had been to the Student Union office quite a few tis, but most of the ti, it was only the vice minister who was present.
The minister smiled at her and said, "Shi Yue, if I rember correctly, you’re majoring in Business English from the foreign languages departnt, right? So, you must be in the sa class as Sheng Ning’an?"
It was Sheng Ning’an again.
Nowadays, just hearing that na made Shi Yue feel averse.
But in front of the minister, she still managed to squeeze out a smile and replied, "Yes, not only are we in the sa class, but we also share a dorm room. Did you want to see because of sothing to do with Sheng Ning’an?"
"You’re roommates? That’s great, then the two of you must have a good relationship, right?" The minister had originally thought they were just classmates but to find out they were roommates suggested a closer relationship than he had imagined.
It seed very likely that this matter would work out.
Even if it didn’t, building a good relationship with Sheng Ning’an through Shi Yue would be beneficial to her with no drawbacks.
With this in mind, the smile on the minister of propaganda’s face beca even more genuine.
And as a result, his attitude toward Shi Yue softened even further.
"It’s okay!"
Shi Yue didn’t know what the minister wanted from her, but it was clear it had to do with Sheng Ning’an.
And seeing the minister’s attitude, she wasn’t blind to the benefits of asserting a good relationship with Sheng Ning’an at this ti.
But she dared not commit too strongly to that line, for fear of being exposed, so she intentionally gave a vague answer.
She then probed, "Is there sothing you need Sheng Ning’an for?"
Her answer that their relationship was "okay" was automatically translated in the minister’s ears as "not bad."
In university, a dorm room is a small community where most relationships are generally not too bad.
"Well, next month is the school anniversary, and the Student Union is thinking of inviting Sheng Ning to be the host. Could you help persuade her to give it a try?" the minister said with a smile, revealing the purpose of calling her over.
"You want Sheng Ning to host the school anniversary?"
Shi Yue nearly lost control of her emotions for a mont and almost failed to maintain her composure.
Why should it be her?
Why should all the good opportunities fall into her lap?
A lot of people would attend the school anniversary, and the school leaders would be there too; why should they have to watch that girl steal the spotlight?
Shi Yue’s heart was filled with reluctance, enveloped and torn by strong feelings of jealousy.
"Yes? Is there a problem?" The propaganda minister noticed her expression seed off and couldn’t help but ask.
Shi Yue struggled to adjust her facial expression and squeezed out a smile, "No, I was just too surprised! For such an important event as the school anniversary, I thought the host would typically be more experienced seniors. I hadn’t realized that first-year students would get a chance too."
If Sheng Ning’an could do it, then couldn’t she as well?
Only, this opportunity was not given equally to everyone.
The minister of propaganda said, "The main reason is Sheng’s good image. The choice to have her host was decided after a discussion among the ministers. Everyone unanimously agreed she would be suitable." A good image was one part, but her status was the most important.
But there was no need to make that too clear here.
"Hosting the school anniversary is a very rare opportunity for us and can provide valuable experience. I think she won’t refuse," said Shi Yue, her expression stiff as she stifled the jealousy churning inside her.
