Reborn in 2000: I just want to love a few people properly.

With only a few shows left and all the flyers handed out, Xu Bo had nothing to do. After making his presence known to Wei Jun, he pulled the three of his dorm roommates toward the auditorium entrance.

Xu Bo led his three roommates to the auditorium entrance, and taking advantage of the absence of others, quickly used a ladder to swap the hot pot banner in the middle with the stationery store banner.

After finishing their work, the group smoked a cigarette at the front door.

"Xiao Bo, why did you do that?" Yu Haoqi asked, puzzled.

Xu Bo could have simply ignored Wei Jun, but judging from the situation this afternoon and evening, he seems to be quite obsequious to Wei Jun.

"That's right, I don't understand either." Du Qinglong and Wang Yan both expressed their confusion.

Exhaling a puff of smoke, Xu Bo said calmly, "Don't you understand the concept of using someone else's strength against them? If I were to argue with him about the banner this afternoon, it would certainly feel good to show off and slap him in the face, but what if he just pulled out a thousand yuan on the spot and said it was for sponsorship?"

"He's not short of money, so why waste a whole afternoon's work? We might as well go along with him and treat him like an idiot."

"Besides, his stationery store is pretty good. He's spent so many resources on advertising; if we just say we get a 10% discount with a stationery store receipt, wouldn't all the customers be drawn to us?"

The group had no idea what Xu Bo meant by "traffic generation," but after seeing Xu Bo's confident demeanor and thinking about it carefully, they realized that it was indeed true.

After finishing their cigarettes, the group returned to the small auditorium, where the host was giving the final bow.

Today is Sunday. Tomorrow morning, there will be an entrance ceremony for all new students at the Tainan City Auditorium. The school leaders will give a few words, and classes will officially begin in the afternoon.

The tall young man who had been tidying up things for the department leaders on the podium earlier reappeared, holding the microphone and speaking.

"Class monitors, please evacuate in an orderly manner under the guidance of student council members."

Xu Bo quickly found his classmates, greeted Wei Jun, and then led Class 1 of the major to cut in line and leave first.

After I shouted outside, everyone scattered like birds and beasts.

"I'm going to buy some wine."

"I'm going to buy some meat."

The group that had made the agreement earlier all left to buy the things they had agreed to buy.

Xu Bo stood alone at the entrance of the small auditorium, waiting for Wei Jun.

As they prepared to leave, the freshmen all had their backs to the banner above, and no one was looking at its contents anymore.

Not long after, Wei Jun came out, and Xu Bo, being very tactful, took out a cigarette and gently placed it near Wei Jun's mouth.

The movements were calm and perfectly timed, as if completed in the blink of an eye. The lighter's flame flickered, and by the time Wei Jun realized what was happening, the first puff of smoke had already been successfully inhaled into his lungs.

Wei Jun gave Xu Bo a very appreciative look. It was the first time he had ever seen such a perceptive young man. He patted Xu Bo on the shoulder hard, making Xu Bo blush.

Looking up at the banner above the gate, Wei Jun spoke.

"Xiao Bo, you did a great job."

Xu Bo pretended to be overwhelmed by the praise and said, "Not at all, it's all thanks to the minister's excellent training."

Wei Jun was overjoyed to hear this, ran his fingers through his hair, and then continued.

"The student council is recruiting in a few days, just come directly. Next year, when I become a minister, you'll be the vice minister!"

"When I'm a senior and get elected to the student council, you'll take over my position."

"If you're looking for a part-time job, you can work at my stationery store. I can pay you 500 yuan!"

It's clear that Wei Jun genuinely considers Xu Bo one of his own. Five hundred yuan is no small sum; even Gu Lin only earns five hundred yuan working at a Northeastern restaurant outside of school.

"Thank you, Minister!" Xu Bo said sincerely.

Before parting, another pack of cigarettes, which had just been opened, was put into Wei Jun's pocket.

After waiting for a while, Gu Lin also came out, with Minister Ma Yuanhang next to her.

"Xiaolin, I'm not trying to be mean, but next year I'll be a senior doing my internship. The position of head of the external relations department has always been based on who gets the most sponsorships – you know what I mean?"

Gu Lin nodded in agreement. She also wanted to secure more sponsorships, since not everyone has a wealthy father.

Fortunately, she now has Xu Bo as her support.

"Xu Bo." Gu Lin saw Xu Bo and quickly waved to greet him.

"When the student union recruits, you absolutely must join our External Relations Department!"

Gu Lin raised a thousand yuan in sponsorship this time, most of which came from the boy in front of her. Of course, no one knows this secret yet.

"Thank you, Minister. I will definitely participate in the External Relations Department's recruitment event."

After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, Ma Yuanhang left, leaving Xu Bo and Gu Lin walking back to the girls' dormitory.

"I have classes these few days, so you must keep a close eye on the store and make sure the staff are properly trained. If anyone leaves, let them go and find new people."

Xu Bo earnestly instructed, and Gu Lin glanced at him and muttered a curse under her breath.

"You have classes, but I don't? You're really exploiting me."

Xu Bo didn't hear him clearly and asked, "What did you say?"

Gu Lin quickly shook her head, indicating that she hadn't said anything.

"By the way, do you know which dorm room Qu Xuanru lives in?"

Xu Bo suddenly spoke up and asked.

Gu Lin frowned, looked at Xu Bo warily, and said with a hint of warning, "Senior Qu, don't even think about it. He's a junior now and will be doing his internship next year. There's no way it will work out."

I was about to light a cigarette, but Wei Jun took the last pack. Even though I gave it to him, I couldn't help but blame Wei Jun.

Xu Bo had intended to show off by reciting his motto, but without the cigarettes to enhance it, his words lacked impact, and he waved his hand dejectedly.

"Go back now. Give this prepaid card to Qu Xuanru and tell her it's a gift from me. Ask her to come to the store and give me some pointers."

"How much?"

There's a thousand yuan inside.

Gu Lin always carried her notebook with her, and immediately took it out and wrote something on it.

Xu Bo gave Qu Xuanru a prepaid card worth 1,000 yuan.

Xu Bo was a little stunned, but he quickly realized what was happening and tried to snatch the notebook from Gu Lin. However, Gu Lin was quick-witted and stuffed it into the pocket behind her back.

He skipped away laughing, while Xu Bo watched from behind, gritting his teeth in frustration.

"I'll tear up that stupid notebook of yours sooner or later."

Back in his dorm room, Xu Bo pushed open the door. The hot pot base had been found. After a quick glance around, he realized there were about a dozen people in the room.

Some were from Xu Bo's class, and some weren't.

But since everyone who came was a guest, and he had already made a promise to everyone in the small auditorium, Xu Bo quickly and warmly greeted them.

In an instant, the hot pot was steaming hot, and everyone took off their upper clothes.

The mutton disappeared the moment it was put in the pan.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, it was 10:30 PM, and Xu Bo was very happy.

Taking out his phone, Xu Bo realized there was no room on the balcony, so he had no choice but to push open the door and go up the stairs in the hallway outside, silently waiting for Luo Qiaoqiao's call.
