As the saying went, having connections in the court made things easier.
Gu Changmin was a well-known rich man in Shanghai, and his network was naturally very strong. With just a short phone call, he had solved the matter that Tan Xiu had requested.
In fact …
Tan Xiu's request was very simple. He hoped that the university would give him the green light to smoothly graduate from the University and get a diploma from Shanghai University. As for the issue of attending classes, he would attend classes if he had time.
"Brother Tang, I don't quite understand."
Just as Tan Xiu was about to hang up the phone, Gu Changmin's voice came out of the phone again.
"What don't you understand?" asked Tan Xiu.
"Brother Tang, given your status and fame, Shanghai University won't make things difficult for you. Even if you put forward some special requests, I'm afraid they'll agree to it," said Gu Changmin. "You've affected the reputation of Shanghai University, and your existence has even made Shanghai University shine in the education world."
"Is that so?"
Tan Xiu thought about it and suddenly understood. As the saying went, the onlookers see the game more clearly than the players. He had actually ignored his own identity and simply regarded himself as an ordinary university student at Shanghai University! But after thinking about it, he realized the root of the problem. It was Han Qingwu.
He had been attending classes for a year.
The number of times he attended classes was very few. Whether it was the professional or elective courses, the teachers had never troubled him. Even the university leaders turned a blind eye to it. But every time, it was Han Qingwu who made a fuss and scared him.
"This woman …"
Tan Xiu was amused and annoyed at the same time. After hanging up the phone, his depressed mood eased a lot. He recalled that he hadn't attended classes for a long time, so it was meaningless to go to class again. Thus, he decided not to go to class before the final exam. If he had the time to go to class, he might as well review by himself. The efficiency was definitely not lower than going to class.
In the evening.
Tan Xiu reviewed the entire professional course content and was about to go downstairs to the dining room for dinner when a beautiful figure appeared outside the study room.
"You're back."
Mu Wanying stopped outside the study room and said with a smile. She wore a business suit, but it outlined her perfect figure. Her long, flowing hair fluttered in the breeze.
Tan Xiu smiled and got up. He came to Mu Wanying and said, "I just came back for two days. I'm very tired after going out this time, so I stayed at home and took a good rest. But how did you know I was back? "
Mu Wanying smiled and said, "Jiang Feiyan told me. She seems to have heard it from your roommate."
Tan Xiu suddenly understood. As he led Mu Wanying downstairs, he asked with a smile, "I did go to school today. Apart from Yue Kai and the others, there seems to be no one else who knows that I'm back. By the way, how's your company doing? "
"It's very good," said Mu Wanying softly. "The company's scale has expanded several times, but it's still too busy. By the way, Lulu helped me poach a few top advertising designers in the country. She's really capable. "
"How did she get involved with you?" asked Tang Xiu, puzzled.
"We met at a business gathering and had a good chat," said Mu Wanying. Now, LuLu and I are business partners. I helped her promote the Paradise Club, and she helped me poach a group of business designers. "
Tan Xiu secretly shook his head. He couldn't figure out what women were thinking. It was like this in the Immortal World, and it was still the same now. Whether it was Mu Wanying or Ouyang Lulu, they both knew each other's existence and their relationship with him. Yet, they had established a friendship and contact in private.
After stepping into the dining room, Mu Wanying suddenly stopped. She hesitated and said, "Do you have anything to do tonight, Tan Xiu?"
"I'm fine!" Tan Xiu shook his head. "Why? Do you have something to do? "
"There's an important charity party tonight, and I'm lacking a male companion," said Mu Wanying. "How about you go with me?"
"Charity party?"
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment before he couldn't help laughing and said, "Ah, so you came here because you want me to go with you to the charity party! I say … you really know how to do hard labor. "
A trace of shyness appeared on Mu Wanying's face as she said, "I came here because I missed you too much. I didn't plan to attend the charity party tonight, but seeing that you have nothing to do, I … "
"No need to explain." Tan Xiu said with a smile, "Shall we eat something before we go? Or do we go now? "
Mu Wanying thought for a moment and said, "Let's eat something first!"
At the Century Hotel in Shanghai.
Luxury cars constantly stopped at the hotel's entrance as well-dressed men and women got off and entered the hotel, heading straight to the 18th floor where the charity party was held.
It was nearly seven o 'clock when Tan Xiu and Mu Wanying arrived. On the way, Tan Xiu learned that tonight's charity party was hosted by a famous businessman in Shanghai, Zhang Qingfeng. He was the Chairman of the Zhang Group and was also a well-known philanthropist in the country.
It was rumored.
Every year, Zhang Qingfeng donated more than nine figures to charity.
At the entrance of the banquet hall on the 18th floor.
Several security guards in black suits were quietly checking the authenticity of the invitations, while a young and beautiful woman was greeting the guests to sign their names on the sign-in book. Then, she said to the guests with extraordinary bearings, "I'm sorry, but you don't have an invitation. We can't let you in."
"Young lady, please make an exception."
The old man in the lead wore a smile on his face as his sharp eyes swept around.
The woman shook her head and said, "I'm very sorry. I'm just following the rules. If you don't have an invitation, you really can't go in. Else, I'm afraid I'll lose my job if our leader blames me. You're making things difficult for me. "
As soon as Tan Xiu came to the entrance, he saw a familiar figure. His brows unconsciously furrowed, but then immediately relaxed. He walked over and said with a smile, "Since they don't have an invitation, we can't let them in. There are too many people who want to fish in troubled waters these days. You can't give such people a chance. "
In an instant.
Everyone at the entrance looked at Tan Xiu and Mu Wanying.
A middle-aged man standing behind the old man turned his head and glanced at Tan Xiu and Mu Wanying. Despite being stunned by Mu Wanying's peerless appearance, he still couldn't help but shout, "Don't talk nonsense, Brat. You know who we are …"
"Enough."
The old man raised his hand to interrupt the middle-aged man. A smile outlined on the corner of his mouth as he smilingly scolded, "You stinking brat, are you deliberately making fun of this old man? Freeloading food and drinks? Do I look like the kind of person who freeloads for free? "
"Aiyo, I've been too tired recently. I often do things that are strenuous and don't bring me any benefits," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "My eyes are so tired. It turns out to be Senior Duanmu! You're an old man who has to deal with a myriad of issues every day, worrying about the country and the people. How come you come here? Could it be … "
Duanmu Lin couldn't help laughing, but he still nodded slightly and said, "Don't waste time. Did you bring an invitation? Just take us in!"
Tan Xiu's heart skipped a beat. He nodded and said, "Alright, then come with us!"
From the beginning to the end.
Tan Xiu didn't introduce Duanmu Lin to Mu Wanying. Although Duanmu Lin gave Mu Wanying a meaningful look, he didn't take the initiative to talk to him.
After entering the hall, Tan Xiu came to Duanmu Lin's side and asked in a low voice, "What happened? Why did you come here in person? "
"Bloodkin," said Duanmu Lin in a low voice.
Tan Xiu stared blankly and asked in surprise, "Isn't our country a forbidden place for the Bloodkin? Where did the Bloodkin come from? How could they be so reckless? "
Duanmu Lin said, "A riot broke out in the European Blood Clan's stronghold. A small vampire clan that had been keeping a low profile for hundreds of years suddenly swept through the other clans with an overwhelming momentum. They intimidated and caused a huge massacre. Some vampire clans belonged to the Stygian Club, but the ones who joined the Stygian Club were the most miserable ones. It can be said that most of them were massacred. "
"A small vampire clan that has been keeping a low profile for hundreds of years?" asked Tan Xiu, confused. "Are you sure it's a small clan?"
Duanmu Lin nodded and said, "It's indeed a small clan according to the previous intelligence. I thought that the number of vampires in that clan was less than 20. But now it's clear that the vampire clan has at least 200 clansmen, and most of them are terrifyingly powerful. The most important thing is that this clan has a powerhouse, a Vampire Overlord. "
Hiss …
Tan Xiu couldn't help but gasp.
Had it been in the past, he could poke a large number of Vampire Overlords to death with just a finger. But with his current strength, he would still need to expend a lot of effort to kill a Vampire Overlord even though his cultivation had just made a breakthrough.
"Did some vampires escape here from the Blood Clan's turmoil in Europe?"
"No, it's the people from that clan." Duanmu Lin shook his head.
Tan Xiu stared blankly and asked with a puzzled expression, "The vampires from that clan? What are they doing in our country? Could it be that they want to stir up trouble in our country? "
"How would I know?" Duanmu Lin shook his head and forced a smile. "We just received the news and rushed over here. If we can't drive them away, I'm afraid we can only kill them."
Tan Xiu nodded. He wouldn't have poked his nose into other people's business if he hadn't encountered them. In any case, Duanmu Lin and the other ability users were here. But since he had encountered them, he wouldn't stand idly by if those vampires dared to disturb the order and harm ordinary people.
"Do as you wish! You can contact me at any time if you need my help. "
Duanmu Lin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Go to the Imperial Capital if you have time later! Our department has a reward system. We already know what you've done in Qingcheng Mountain, so you need to collect your reward in person. "
"What kind of reward?"
Tan Xiu, who was about to leave with Mu Wanying, suddenly stopped and asked.
"Allow me to keep it a secret for now," said Duanmu Lin with a smile. "In short, it's definitely a pleasant surprise for you."
Tan Xiu pursed his lips and snorted inwardly, "It's fine as long as it's not a shock.
