Chapter 202

"Mr. Xiao, thank you for gracing us with your presence..." A school official surnamed Wang, the first to come before Xiao Ming, saw him, bowed, and politely said to Xiao Ming:

Xiao Ming lightly nodded: "Thank you, you're being polite."

It wasn't that he was arrogant; he had long grown accustomed to all kinds of flattery, to the point of numbness, so when faced with others' politeness, his response was always indifferent.

Afterwards, that school official turned to Xiao Yunzhe beside Xiao Ming: "Is this Xiao Yunzhe? Wu Laoshi's school, no wonder Wu Laoshi praises you so much; you indeed look smart, I heard you're a top student at school—you're our school's pride!"

"Principal Wang, you overpraise me; I actually have many shortcomings and will need to seek more advice from teachers in the future." Xiao Yunzhe replied politely.

In his heart he felt contempt for those words; after all, since graduation he had been a nobody clown, and now he's become the son of the richest person, actually becoming the school's pride.

Besides, after being by Xiao Ming's side for a long time, his temperament has also gradually mellowed; he doesn't really care about these things.

Afterwards, those school leaders led Xiao Ming, Xiao Yunzhe, and others into the school.

The school celebration was held on the school's sports field; the school had long prepared a special seat for Xiao Ming, the best one in the guest section.

On the way there, the students along the road, upon seeing them, were all extremely excited, blocking the sides of the road so tightly that not even water could leak through.

After all, seeing the richest person and his son was truly too exciting.

Even a female voice softly shouted at Xiao Ming: "Xiao Male God, I love you."

I like you; can you give me a chance? I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

At first the voices were soft, but gradually the shouts grew louder: "Can I be your girlfriend?"

As long as I can be with you, I'm willing to do anything; you are the perfect man in my heart...

Seeing this, the school leaders' old faces instantly turned red; Dean Du hurried forward to smooth things over, saying: "Um, Mr. Xiao, the students are just too thrilled to see you, so they got a bit carried away; please don't take offense..."

"No problem, no problem!" Xiao Ming waved his hand nonchalantly: "Youth is still the best—full of vigor and ambition."

From the moment the school picked him up until arriving at the sports field, Xiao Ming's face always bore a faint smile; he would occasionally wave at the students to greet them, and each time he waved, it would provoke a wave of screams.

This richest person is really too easygoing, huh?

He has not a trace of vulgar money smell, and that faint smile on his face is simply captivating.

Soon they arrived at the sports field, where Xiao Ming and his son Xiao Yunzhe were escorted to the most honored seats.

But Xiao Ming didn't sit there; instead he took a seat among the external guests invited, who had little connection to the school.

Xiao Ming has money, but he's not the type to act arrogantly because of favor; he'd rather be an ordinary person, accept the treatment he deserves, and doesn't like special treatment.

He merely has a bit more money, but he's still a mundane worldly person; there's no need to make himself out to be some big shot, putting on such airs.

He's just here to attend his son's school celebration; aside from that, he has little connection to the school, so there's no need to make himself overly special and steal the spotlight.

The school had no choice but to comply with Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming's conduct was seen by everyone present, instantly boosting their favorability toward him by another notch.

After Xiao Ming took his seat among the external guests, the people around warmly greeted him; his attitude remained indifferent, but he responded to all.

Whenever those people greeted Xiao Ming, they would also toss in a compliment about Xiao Yunzhe; being beside Xiao Ming, Xiao Yunzhe heard so many praises that he grew immune to them.

Even so, he didn't like hearing too much of it—his ears were practically developing calluses.

Fortunately, the school celebration soon began, and everyone sensibly quieted down, finally giving Xiao Ming and Xiao Yunzhe some peace and quiet.

At the start of the school celebration, the student hosts selected in advance took the stage, spoke some formal remarks, and announced the commencement of the celebration.

Next, the school's top authority was invited onto the stage to speak.

Then, the invited guests were called onto the stage to utter some uplifting words, speak of the school's various virtues, and wish the school a better future.

In between, some program performances took place.

After two hours, it finally came time for the last segment: presenting honorary certificates to the alumni guests invited back to the school.

Xiao Ming, invited by the school to present the honorary certificates to the deserving students, had no choice but to go on stage.

The moment he rose to his feet, everyone in the venue instantly became excited.

After presenting the certificates, the school again asked Xiao Ming to speak, once more genuinely stirring the crowd.

The students' exclamations rose higher and higher.

Xiao Ming was truly immensely popular; the fervor at the scene could rival that of today's hottest international stars.

Xiao Yunzhe initially still worried that Xiao Ming couldn't handle such an occasion; after all, Xiao Ming is very capable in the business world, but this is a school, and beforehand Xiao Ming had said he had never participated in such an event.

But he was mistaken.

All that could be seen was Xiao Ming calmly taking a microphone: "Ladies and gentlemen, teachers and students..."

He spoke with an extremely gentle attitude and a smooth pace, naturally, as if he had experienced such occasions countless times before.

He suddenly recalled what his sisters had said: Xiao Ming is an all-capable dad.

Looking back now, that statement wasn't wrong at all—Xiao Ming is truly impressive; he can't help wondering whether there's anything in this world his father can't handle.

After finishing his remarks, Xiao Ming paused, then announced a piece of news that set everyone ablaze: he said that upon returning, he would donate sixty million yuan in scholarship funds to Zhehai University, and would also build a twenty-four-hour study building for the school, so students could study anytime, anywhere.

Furthermore, this is just a beginning; if the school has other needs later, they can apply to his company, and as long as it's reasonable and beneficial to students, he will do his best to fulfill them.

As soon as he said that, everyone present exploded.

Indeed, with money comes willfulness; a casual remark is either a donation of money or a donation of a building.

Is this the demeanor of a richest person?

Simply too cool.

Other schools that had been invited to attend Zhehai's school celebration were secretly extremely envious; Zhehai's luck was just too great, because the richest person's son studies at this school, and when the richest person shows up, a wave of his hand means money.
