Chapter 1207 Respect for the Dead? If this isn't for real, he's already secured a place in graduate school!

"Maru spicy!"

This was the only thought in Mi Lai's mind.

Hua Zi and Xiang Nan exchanged a glance, then quickly looked away, each continuing to avoid making eye contact with anyone present.

In particular, you must avoid eye contact with Mi Lai and Lu Tao.

Because they were afraid that if they showed any abnormality, they would bring trouble upon themselves.

no way!
He Chen's words were so hurtful!

Their schools are average, so there's not much difference in intelligence or talent. Is that really true?

Of course it's true!
No one wants to admit that they are inferior to others.

In the original storyline, after Lu Tao "succeeded" thanks to his father, his two friends Hua Zi and Xiang Nan were a little jealous and resentful. They felt that Lu Tao had become arrogant and out of touch with reality, and they distanced themselves from him. Their words implied that Lu Tao relied on his father's success.

Clearly, in their minds, they weren't much different from Lu Tao.

Lu Tao's so-called impressive achievements, apart from finding a rich and beautiful girlfriend because of his good looks, are really nothing special. His professional awards are nothing to brag about.

After all, there really isn't an award that's truly prestigious enough to leave them speechless with nothing but praise.

Now, after He Chen's comments, these awards seem to have become problematic.

He Chen might not know, but how could they, who had been friends and roommates for several years, not know about Lu Tao's family situation?

Lu Tao now lives with his mother and adoptive father, who is the director of the planning bureau and treats him like his own son. Although Lu Tao always complains to them that his adoptive father is too upright and out of touch with reality, and that he would never do anything to help him get a job.

They actually believed it at first.

But now, inspired by He Chen's unique logical perspective, they suddenly have new insights when they look at these things and words again.

Why does she often complain that her adoptive father is so upright that it's out of place?
Could it be interpreted as Lu Tao frequently wanting his adoptive father to put in a good word for him and get him in through connections?

Otherwise, why would Lu Tao complain so much, and so often?

Even if Lu Tao's complaints are true, and Lu Tao's adoptive father is upright and unwilling to give his son various privileges, does he still need to intervene in many matters?
The director of the planning bureau, whom Lu Tao looked down upon as if he were worthless, was definitely a top figure in the industry!

Nothing else to say!

In the original storyline, Lu Tao was instructed by his biological father to force his adoptive father to use connections, and with just one sentence, his biological father earned an extra 8000 million!
What is this concept?
Even if such an adoptive father repeatedly emphasizes that no backdoors are allowed, wouldn't the school leaders proactively offer Lu Tao some awards?

That's amazing!

School leaders would be fools not to accept such a generous and cost-effective gesture!
Are these awards useful?

It's completely useless!

In the original storyline, Lu Tao couldn't find a job for a long time after graduation. In the end, he was able to quickly 'succeed' only thanks to the return of his billionaire father, the Dragon King, from overseas.

Is it possible that Lu Tao is really as amazing as he claims?
Therefore, everything He Chen said was a sharp and incisive statement that hit the nail on the head.

Even regarding playing games, it's hard to say who started it, or whether Lu Tao was the one who led Gao Qiang to become addicted to games.

These alone were enough to make Lu Tao clench his fists, ready to break through the defenses using physics.

"You can't say that." In the end, Hua Zi couldn't withstand the pressure that was about to explode, and Mi Lai's repeated pleading eyes. He thought that besides Mi Lai, he was friends with both sides. Xiang Nan could hide again and again, but he couldn't. So he gritted his teeth and tried to smooth things over.

"When we graduated, we didn't take it seriously. And if that's the case, Xiang Nan and I bear more responsibility for Gao Qiang's death. After all, Lu Tao was busy dating Mi Lai all day, while we were the ones hanging out with Gao Qiang."

Gao Qiang had been worried about not getting his degree, and we just offered a suggestion in jest, but we didn't really take it seriously.

"What did you say back then?" He Chen knew that Hua Zi wanted to take the blame so that he wouldn't have to say anything about Lu Tao, but He Chen laughed when he heard him say that.

"Exactly what did you say, and what did Lu Tao say?"

"..." Hua Zi was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"What can't be said!" Seeing that Hua Zi wouldn't speak, and He Chen looking at him with a half-smile, Lu Tao recounted the situation without any concealment.

Hua Zi talked about the principle of "courtesy first, then force," and told a story about a senior from the previous year named Xiao Zhong. Xiao Zhong couldn't get his degree after graduation, so he went to the principal with a box of snacks. When the principal asked him to take it away, Xiao Zhong pulled out a knife from behind his back, threatened that his future was in the principal's hands, and then stuck the knife directly into the desk.

Xiao Zhong is now a Bachelor of Engineering.

Lu Tao immediately retorted, saying that the school's rules and regulations were just sitting there, and doing this was completely useless.

"Is there a problem with what I said?" Lu Tao was furious when he saw He Chen's 'I knew it' expression after hearing this.

"Of course there's a problem!" He Chen sneered. "Anyone would advise him not to do this, because even if Xiao Zhong succeeds, there's a greater chance that the principal will call the police and send him to jail!"
It's not that we shouldn't use school rules and regulations to justify this!
But you shouldn't be saying that!

In the original storyline, Lu Tao repeatedly mocked his adoptive father for being too upright to the point of being pedantic. Why?

Isn't it just that he wants his adoptive father to go astray?

Later, when she started working for her biological father, she repeatedly asked her adoptive father to pull strings. Regardless of the facts, she insisted on giving her adoptive father an explanation: whether he would work for her or not!

Forced by circumstances, the adoptive father ultimately had no choice but to violate his lifelong principles and skirt the line for him.

To be precise, this means Lu Tao wanted his adoptive father to commit crimes with him!
How dare Lu Tao, with his background, use school rules and regulations as an excuse?
Especially at a crucial moment when his roommate was worried about not getting his degree, he used something he didn't believe in at all to end this friendship that should have been a chance for a good friend to help him come up with ideas or at least comfort and alleviate his anxiety.

Although what Hua Zi said was inappropriate, he was genuinely trying to help by putting his mind to it and offering solutions.

Even setting aside the issue of it misleading the audience, this is still a very feasible solution.

Compared to this, what kind of good friend is Lu Tao?

How can it compare to Hua Zi?
"What's wrong with me? Why can't I say it?!" Lu Tao glared at He Chen: "You don't really think I only got those awards because of my family, so I'm not qualified to use school rules to stop Gao Qiang from imitating Xiao Zhong, do you? Didn't you also say that Xiao Zhong succeeded, but others who try to imitate him will most likely be called to the police and sent to jail?"

“Whether you rely on your family or not, I don’t know, but you know it yourself, so don’t get agitated,” He Chen said with a smile. “As for my suggestion about Hua Zi, it was indeed inappropriate.”

But at least he offered a way to help Gao Qiang share the burden, which shows he took it to heart.

And what about you, who are smart, seem to have inherited good family traditions, and are well-informed?
After rejecting Hua Zi's suggestion in one sentence, what did you do next?
You did nothing!

But you are capable of doing so many things.

At this point, he looked at the clever little devil Xiang Nan, who had been pretending to be invisible: "And you, I heard your family is a family of police officers, so you should know quite a bit."

If you two had put in a little more effort and taken Hua Zi's suggestion and made some changes based on a large number of individual cases, Gao Qiang would definitely have been accepted into a graduate program, not just dead now!

Pursuing a PhD in the future will be a breeze!

Everyone: "..."
