Chapter 41

"School?" Gao Hu was happy.

"..." Ghost Eye looked troubled. "Can I not go to school? I just want to box..."

Then Ghost Eye was given a flick on the head by Guan Zu.

"Little brat, how can you not go to school? You don't need to fight and kill in the future; studying hard is what children should do. Of course, if you want to become physically strong, you can practice boxing at the gym. Brother Jin and Brother Fu are both very strong..."

Can practice boxing?

When Ghost Eye heard this, he finally beamed with joy.

Guan Zu looked at him with disdain: A martial arts fanatic!

20 minutes later, arriving in Causeway Bay,

Su Jianqiu, who had transformed into the orphanage director, had been waiting for a long time.

"Brother Zu!"

"Take them to the orphanage..."

"Alright, Brother Zu."

Su Jianqiu quickly took Gao Hu and Ghost Eye back to the orphanage, then arranged dorms, clothes, and a full wash for them...

The next morning,

Gao Hu and Ghost Eye jumped up from the warm and comfortable dormitory beds, looking at the prepared toothpaste, toothbrush, towel, and clothes...

The sunlight outside shone in, and the view outside the window was lush and green.

Looking at all this, they still felt like they were dreaming.

Had they really escaped that mud pit?

No need to live in a tent exposed to the sun and rain? No need to beg or snatch food? No need to scavenge for trash?

Looking at the spacious and bright dormitory, the bedding, clothes, and various complete daily necessities.

The two grinned and laughed happily.

"Beep~~~~~"

Just then, Su Jianqiu came to the dormitory door and blew a whistle.

"It's 8:30 now; you're already late."

"I'll give you 10 minutes to brush your teeth and wash your faces, then 20 minutes in the cafeteria for breakfast..."

"At 9:00, I'm taking you to Southeast Middle School. You'll have to attend classes from now on, and you'll have to take remedial classes after you get back..."

Although Su Jianqiu was fierce, Gao Hu and Ghost Eye knew he was good to them, so they were very grateful and respectful.

"Yes, Director!" *2

9:00,

Su Jianqiu brought Gao Hu and Ghost Eye, who had eaten until their bellies were round, to Southeast Middle School.

Southeast Middle School is a private middle school in the Wan Chai district, more than 400 meters from Causeway Bay.

"Map"

The quality of this school is very poor; the school is dilapidated, gangs hang around, and students have no interest in studying.

But Gao Hu and Ghost Eye hadn't finished elementary school, so the level here was just right for them.

They soon met the principal.

Su Jianqiu gave a 100,000 sponsorship fee, and the principal was very happy and readily approved their formal enrollment.

10 minutes later,

Gao Hu followed Su Jianqiu out of the principal's office door, looking at the campus under the sun, his heart full of expectations for the future.

Everything was thanks to Brother Zu and the Director!

Ghost Eye: "............"

Listless,

This terrible school, I just want to go practice boxing!

On the other side,

Downstairs at Mingxin Hospital,

Just as Guan Zu was preparing to enter the hospital gate,

The system notification arrived late.

"You saved Gao Hu and Ghost Eye, pulled them out of the mud, gave them a stable environment to grow up in, and sent them to school..."

"You received two rewards:"

"Reward 1: One 'Severe Injury Recovery Card'"

"Description: When you suffer from severe non-disease injuries like gunshot wounds or impact injuries, using this will allow you to gradually recover within three days."

Guan Zu was delighted.

This card is good stuff!

Simply a life-saving artifact!

With it, his personal safety will be greatly improved in the future!

The system continued to prompt:

"Reward 2: You obtained a piece of intelligence: The current shareholders of Southeast Private Middle School believe the school has been invaded by gangs and is beyond saving; they are preparing to sell their shares. 10 million is enough to obtain shareholder status."

"Note: When you become the school principal, you will receive a rare reward, and this school will become a cradle for you to cultivate a loyal base!"

Seeing this intelligence, Guan Zu was even more pleasantly surprised.

This is also good stuff!

He knew about Southeast Middle School; it was that rotten school from "School on Fire."

And if he acquired a rotten school and renovated it, that would definitely be a huge good deed.

And this note pointed out that he would receive a rare reward to cultivate a loyal base!

"Good stuff!"

"Hahaha~~~"

Guan Zu laughed happily.

Guan Zu was in a good mood, carrying the breakfast he bought on the side of the road, and walked into the hospital.

"Mr. Guan..."

"Mr. Guan..." The hospital was at its busiest time, and along the way, many acquaintances and neighbors from Causeway Bay greeted him—all elderly men and women coming for medical treatment.

Guan Zu had a very good memory and called out the names of these elderly men and women one by one.

He arrived at the cardiac surgery ward.

The nurse at the nurse station saw Guan Zu and greeted him: "Brother Zu, why are you here?"

Also an acquaintance from Causeway Bay.

"Ah Li, good morning. I'm here to see a friend..."

Guan Zu responded while walking to Little Jew's ward, then saw Little Jew making some plastic flowers.

"Brother Zu~~"

"What are you doing?"

"Making crafts. I can't work right now, so I can only make crafts to earn money. I need to earn money quickly to pay you back..." She answered while skillfully threading the plastic flowers.

!.

Guan Zu: "............"

Guan Zu placed the breakfast porridge and buns on the bedside table.

"Breakfast: century egg and lean meat porridge, char siu buns, red bean buns, for you..."

"Thank you, Brother Zu!"

Little Jew was already hungry; she quickly untied the plastic bag and took out the buns to eat.

Her glistening red lips bit into the snow-white bun; Guan Zu found it pleasing to the eye.

"Eh, Ah Zu."

At this moment, a surprised voice came from the bed next to Little Jew's.

Guan Zu turned his head to look.

Yo, what a coincidence, an acquaintance!

It was the old lady who had asked him to help her across the street last time, only to try to repay his kindness by introducing her 0.1-ton granddaughter.

"Ah Zu, is this your girlfriend?" The old lady looked at Little Jew with curiosity.

Hmm, she is indeed very beautiful.

It seems there's no chance for her 0.1-ton granddaughter.

Disappointed~~

"She's not my girlfriend, just a friend." Guan Zu laughed. "Auntie Mei, why are you here?"

Auntie Mei said helplessly: "My old man, I don't know why his heart is beating so fast, so we came for a checkup. The doctor said he needs to be hospitalized; I don't understand it anyway."

On the bed, Auntie Mei's husband, Uncle Liang, waved at Guan Zu: "Ah Zu~~ I heard you started an orphanage and adopted many children."

Guan Zu smiled: "It's alright, I just have nowhere else to spend the money."

Auntie Mei sighed: "You, Ah Zu, are kind enough."

Guan Zu asked with concern: "Uncle Liang, you don't have any major problems, right?"

Uncle Liang laughed: "No major problems, just getting old, it's always like this."

Guan Zu nodded: "That's good..."

Uncle Liang: "Ah Zu, I heard you're running for councilor. Is that true?"

Guan Zu: "Yes, Uncle Liang, you must support me."

Uncle Liang and Auntie Mei said one after another: "Of course we'll support you. If we don't support you, who else can we support?"

Guan Zu was happy: "Thank you."

Little Jew felt it was magical watching Guan Zu chat with the old couple.

Wait... councilor?

Little Jew's eyes widened.

Shouldn't a councilor be someone of high virtue and great prestige?

Then, even more magical things happened.

Many old men and women ran over to greet Guan Zu.

Guan Zu actually knew them one by one.

They all said they would support Guan Zu to be a councilor.

Little Jew: "????"

Not long after, the attending doctor arrived—a woman.

"Brother Zu!"

The attending doctor, Zhang Yixin, was pleasantly surprised to see Guan Zu. ("Kids' Lives Matter")

"Map"

"Ah Xin, long time no see." Guan Zu smiled.

The two knew each other because Guan Zu had saved Zhang Yixin's father, who had provoked some thugs during a brawl, and they got to know each other then.

"It's been half a year... Brother Zu is still so handsome!" Zhang Yixin smiled. "I saw your signature this morning and was curious if it was the same person; it really is you."

"No choice, I saw her faint on the ground last night, so I rushed her to the hospital."

"I thought she was Brother Zu's girlfriend."

"Haha, no..."

"I heard you're running for Causeway Bay councilor? Congratulations."

"Hahaha~~ I'll need your support."

"Don't worry, my parents and I will definitely support you!"
