I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

As she finished speaking, her voice softened considerably, her fingers still resting on the edge of the computer, and her pitiful expression left Lin Zhou momentarily speechless.

No.

Wasn't he just a moment ago Chairman Gu, ready to casually pull out a million to solve the problem?

How did things suddenly turn out like this just because I called him by his full name?

"I wasn't being mean to you," Lin Zhou said, looking at her. "I was just a little serious."

"You do..." Gu Yuning retorted softly, her eyes slightly lowered. Although she wasn't crying, her eyes seemed to be filled with a thin layer of water. "You don't usually call me that."

Lin Zhou stared at her for a while, and suddenly felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.

Gu Yuning was like this when she was little. She always liked to stay by his side. If Lin Zhou's tone was even slightly harsh, she would lower her head and not say anything, her eyes would gradually turn red, and then she would insist on waiting for Lin Zhou to take the initiative to coax her.

A crybaby.

She also likes to act cute.

Although Gu Yuning has become the student council president over the years and usually seems more mature and reliable than anyone else, now that she is too tired to continue, the person hidden inside seems to have not changed at all.

so cute.

"But when we met again, didn't you say it yourself?" Lin Zhou asked.

Gu Yuning looked up. "What?"

"Just call me Gu Yuning." Lin Zhou deliberately mimicked her cold tone from back then. "Don't you remember?"

Gu Yuning froze for a few seconds, clearly remembering the incident. Her previously aggrieved expression instantly froze, and her ears turned red at a visible speed.

"But things were different back then."

"What's different?"

"Back then..." Gu Yuning looked away and cleared her throat, "I meant for you to stop calling me Chairman Gu all the time, not for you to lecture me like you did just now."

"Oh." Lin Zhou nodded. "So calling me Gu Yuning is fine, but I can't use the same tone as before?"

"Um……"

"Yu Ning, go and rest."

"I'm not going."

"..." Changing the name won't help.

Gu Yuning seemed to finally realize that she had acted a little strangely. After clearing her throat, she sat up straight again. "Okay, I've rested enough. Give me back my computer."

"Have you rested?" Lin Zhou tilted his head. When did you rest?

Does chatting with me for a few minutes mean you've had a break?

Or did they see my roguish face?

"Lin Zhou." Gu Yuning tried to regain her student council president's authority, but her eyes still held a hint of grievance, and her cheeks were flushed, making her look rather unapproachable.

"I really don't have time to rest. I have to finish all these things by tomorrow, and you still have a head injury, so you can't stay here with me all night."

"Then I won't stay up late."

"So give me the computer."

"Go to sleep."

"I'm not sleeping."

"Yu Ning".

"I won't sleep..."

As Gu Yuning spoke, she reached for the computer again.

Lin Zhou moved the computer back a little, and seeing that she wouldn't listen to any of his advice, he finally understood why Chen Yu had sent him a message.

Reasoning with them is useless... Since that's the case, we can only resort to some special measures.

Lin Zhou took out his phone, grinned, and said, "Hehehe, Yu Ning, I really need to control you better."

"...?" Gu Yuning's movements suddenly slowed down. Her body, which was already exhausted to the limit, seemed to have lost its last bit of support, and her eyes blinked a few times.

Gu Yuning tried to force herself to open her eyes, but her body involuntarily leaned forward. Lin Zhou quickly reached out and caught her, pulling her into his arms.

"Now she's finally behaving herself." Lin Zhou reached out and patted her head, brushing aside a few strands of hair before lowering his head and gently kissing her cheek.

Gu Yuning's eyelashes trembled.

"Oh... consider this an apology for being mean to you earlier." Lin Zhou patted her head again. "Go to sleep, you crybaby."

Although the hypnosis session was short, Yu Ning fell asleep easily after being hypnotized, which seemed like a good thing for her, who suffered from insomnia.

Lin Zhou picked her up and carried her to the sofa next to the office.

Gu Yuning looks powerful, but she's actually quite small when you pick her up; she's almost too light.

After all, no matter how strong she looks, she's just a little girl at heart.

Lin Zhou adjusted Gu Yuning's bangs—

Hmm... I look much more docile with straight bangs.

Lin Zhou tucked her into the sofa and then took out a thin blanket from the cabinet that he used when he was on duty and covered her with it.

After squatting beside her for a while, Lin Zhou confirmed that Gu Yuning was completely asleep before taking off his coat and stuffing it into her arms. Gu Yuning instinctively hugged it, and her slightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

They are more obedient when they are asleep than when they are awake.

However, Lin Zhou did not intend to force Gu Yuning to rest and then let her wake up and start working again... Although Yuning would not blame him, doing so would only mean piling up the work he had on hand until the next day.

"Let me see..." Lin Zhou returned to his desk and sat down. He immediately saw the computer he had snatched and the pile of documents next to it that almost blocked his view.

He first took the top loss registration form.

More than nine hundred and seventy-six thousand.

There are still a few items that haven't been fully confirmed. All of them together will probably exceed one million. Gu Yuning registered all the damaged items at the price of repurchase, and even wrote down the purchase records, the persons who owned them, the extent of the damage, and whether they would continue to be used tomorrow.

The information is correct.

It could even be said that the organization was excessively detailed.

Lin Zhou's head was spinning at first. Cameras, tablets, electronic keyboards, speakers, performance costumes, and a bunch of other things he couldn't even name were crammed together. No wonder Gu Yuning stared at them all day.

"You must be exhausted, President." Lin Zhou lowered his eyes, his fingers flipping through the documents in his hand.

However, after flipping through the pages for a while, he gradually discovered something strange.

One million is the price to buy everything back from scratch.

But there aren't that many things I really need tomorrow.

The photography club needs two cameras, the students responsible for live streaming need several tablets, the music club lacks an electronic keyboard and speakers, and most of the remaining items are either already used for events or are not needed at all and need to be bought again immediately tomorrow.

Lin Zhou picked up the funding application that the college had returned.

The responsibility for the accident has not yet been determined, and the conditions for allocating funds for compensation are not yet met.

Compensation for losses.

The college is currently unwilling to approve compensation because the responsibility for the fire has not yet been investigated, and it has not been determined who will bear these losses.

But what those students really need tomorrow doesn't seem to be a sum of money right away.

"Oh...this is..." Lin Zhou noticed another application, "Fire..."

"It shouldn't be about solving money problems... um..." Lin Zhou held the documents in his hand, glanced at the sleeping Gu Yuning, and walked out of the office.

Let me handle it my way.
