Wang Yan didn’t care what was going on in the room.
Even if those two cockfighting kids wanted to fight again, he would let them.
As for Song Chen’s sister, Wang Yan didn’t even think about her.
He had gone through a period of fantasizing pretty girls, but it had passed forever.
If you want to stir my heart, mere beauty isn’t enough. At the very least, you have to get me drunk, right?
…
Alright, alright. Zhang Cheng incident was too scary, and he couldn’t help but think of it.
In any case, unless it was a special occasion, Young Master Wang was able to maintain a casual attitude toward beautiful girls.
For the time being, he would keep his distance from his roommate’s elder sister.
…
After some asking around, he soon found the dorm manager’s office.
The two new dormitory buildings each had a dorm manager’s office. Unlike the guard room at the entrance on the first floor, this office was for the school’s logistics staff.
He knocked on the door three times politely.
“Please come in!”
Pushing the door open, he saw a young staff member with a round face and a pair of spectacles.
He must be a staff member, so should I call him teacher or not?
While he was weighing the terms of address in his heart, Wang Yan was also adjusting his strategy.
“Hello, teacher.”
“Hello, student. What can I do for you?”
Li Zewen’s gaze, which was hidden behind his spectacles, looked Wang Yan up and down, and his smile became warmer.
People were just like that. Dressed in luxurious clothes and with an outstanding deportment he was well received wherever he went.
“Teacher, how should I address you?”
Wang Yan used all the tricks that he had learned when he worked in the small loan firm. Those salesmen were all so pleasing to the ear. When they talked, they would always be warm and kind, trying their best to make the customers comfortable before discussing serious matters.
“My name is Li Zewen. I’m not really a teacher. You can just call me Brother Li.”
Li Zewen motioned for Wang Yan to sit next to him.
“Come and sit down.”
Wang Yan sat on the long sofa next to him and took out his Zhonghua cigarettes. He motioned to the guy, “Brother Li, do you smoke?”
There was an ashtray on the office table and cigarette butts in it, so this wasn’t really a question.
“Why, the cigarettes are not bad. But you’re still young, and you’d better not smoke. It’s not a good habit.”
Li Zewen casually grumbled, but actually, he didn’t really take it to heart.
As a dorm maintenance staff member, he dealt with the third-year and fourth-year veterans every day and usually smoked, drank, and chatted with them. After all, he had to get close to them to get his work done.
To his surprise, Wang Yan got up and put the unopened pack of cigarettes on the table.
Then, he smiled calmly and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you to help me correct my bad habit.”
Li Zewen was stunned and shook his head. He was amused, too.
“Hey, yung man, you’re really interesting… Alright, I’ll keep the cigarettes. Tell me your name. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
“My name is Wang Yan, a freshman in Room 303.”
“Okay.” Li Zewen listened attentively.
“I’m here to ask if the school has any plans to cool down the freshmen’s dorm in the summer.”
When Wang Yan passed by the advertisement board, he had happened to see a slogan that said something about “Cool down student’s dorms in the summer”. So he brought it up with Li Zewen.
“Let me ask you a question… First of all…”
It seemed that Li Zewen had attended a lot of school meetings. First of all, second of all, he explained the situation in detail.
When Wang Yan heard the last part, he did not find the content he wanted. He frowned and asked, “Brother Li, does the school have a plan to install air-conditioning?”
Li Zewen was stunned when he heard that.
“Actually, there is a plan, but the current situation is that it may take some time to get funds. The school is tight in funds…”
Sure, it meant that he had a chance!
That was what Wang Yan wanted. He did not want to hear the rest.
“Brother Li, look, if we install an air-conditioner from our own pocket, how much money would be enough?”
Li Zewen was stunned again.
“Little Wang, it’s not a matter of money! You may not understand it, but installing an air-conditioner is actually not easy…”
Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly stopped and stared blankly at Wang Yan.
Young Master Wang had just taken out two wads of money from his bag.
Then, he casually pulled out a newspaper from under the coffee table, wrapped up the money, and handed it to Li Zewen.
“Brother Li, I’ve been pampered since I was young, so I really can’t live in a room without air-conditioning. I don’t know how much it would cost to install an air-conditioner, so I’ll have to trouble you to do it for me.”
Wang Yan’s attitude was very sincere. Although in reality, he was bribing people, he didn’t look arrogant.
Li Zewen managed to catch his breath, though with some difficulty. He frowned and said, “What are you doing? Put it away!”
“Okay!”
Wang Yan pulled open a drawer of Li Zewen’s desk and put the money in it.
“Brother Li, I just want the permission. I see that some rooms on the top floor has had air-conditioners installed, which means that the school is also concerned about our health. Please help us, okay?”
“What are you doing? Is this how you ask for help?”
Li Zewen frowned and glared, as if he was angry, but actually he was not.
Wang Yan had prepared an excuse and now was the time to use it.
“Brother Li, this money is not for you personally, it is donated to the dormitory management office to improve the conditions of the students’dormitories. If you want, you can give me an invoice, official receipt or something. Okay?”
Li Zewen was amused. “What’s an official receipt?”
After a chuckle, he frowned and looked very troubled.
“It’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s just that it’s really a little difficult… The school’s logistics office is in charge of the maintenance of the entire dormitory area, and those on the top floor are graduate dorms… To Install an air conditioner for you would be more difficult than moving you up to the top floor..”
Oh!
So that’s how it is!
Wang Yan continued to push him with a look of understanding.
“I won’t make things difficult for you. There will be a worker coming to install the AC in the afternoon. You and the supervisor can just pretend that you don’t see it, okay?”
Wang Yan didn’t know how it would be done, and he didn’t care.
Anyway, it was just a matter of money.
After some deliberation, Li Zewen finally gritted his teeth and agreed.
“I’ll give it a try for you…”
“Thank you, thank you!”
Li Zewen shook his head and smiled bitterly. “You… If other students and their parents come to us because of it, we’ll be under a lot of pressure…”
Fortunately, the school was ready to relax the restrictions on private air-conditioning installation. The power distribution in the new dormitory building was sufficient. It was just that the school hadn’t made up it’s mind yet…
“Alright, I’ll go find the supervisor now. Just sit here while I make a phone call.”
With 50,000 yuan before him, Li Zewen was quick to act.
Although he couldn’t put this money into his own pocket, it would reflect well on him since he got a donation for the dormitory management office.
10 minutes later, Li Zewen returned happily.
It was a success!
Wang Yan didn’t care what was going on in the room.
Even if those two cockfighting kids wanted to fight again, he would let them.
