Facing Wen Xihe, Bai Jinyu's attitude was both warm and authoritative. He first pointed out that they had violated school rules, and then showed consideration for Wen Xihe, who did not directly pilot the mecha, so he could be given a lighter punishment.

Wen Xi listened absentmindedly. He was about to ask about the punishment for Cen Yu when he heard Bai Jinyu ask—

Have you thought about what will happen after graduation?

Wen Xihe looked at Bai Jinyu.

“I know many people want to win you over,” Bai Jinyu said with a smile, “but you know that the First Legion is the best place for you.”

If the Fifth Legion has no connection with any of the princes, then the First Legion is clearly more inclined to support the eldest prince.

As the oldest legion in the empire's history, the First Legion has produced many famous generals throughout its history. Of course, what is equally famous as the First Legion's history is its outdated traditions.

Alphas are revered and divided into different ranks based on their mental strength.

Even though things have changed in recent years, the First Legion is essentially a rigid entity.

Wen Xihe had never considered this place from beginning to end. For a poor Alpha like him, this kind of place where aristocratic children could gild their resumes was completely unsuitable for him.

He understood Bai Jinyu's meaning; the other party wanted to win him over to become part of the Crown Prince's faction.

"How ridiculous," Wen Xi thought to himself. Even though there was no definite news from the outside world, he had his own channels for obtaining information and of course knew that the eldest prince had been unconscious for nearly a year... The old emperor was also beginning to hesitate about choosing an heir.

After all, the prerequisite for an Alpha to inherit the throne is that he is a living, conscious living person.

“My dream is to go back to my hometown,” Wen Xihe said calmly.

“That remote planet has been plagued by the Zerg for years.” He had great ambitions, but these ambitions were not suitable to be revealed now, so whenever others asked about his dreams, he would only say that he wanted to return to the remote planet and become someone who would protect the local planet.

"They need me there."

Bai Jinyu looked at Wen Xihe with an unchanged smile.

“I’ve heard of your hometown,” he said. “It is indeed a remote planet, and I have been there before.”

No, Bai Jinyu had never been to such a remote and impoverished place.

He adopted a compassionate demeanor, indicating that he understood Wen Xihe's thoughts, before changing the subject and stating that the First Legion's battlegrounds were all areas truly conquered by the Zerg.

That place clearly needs talents like Wen Xihe more.

Wen Xihe simply nodded, "But I'm a selfish person."

Bai Jinyu didn't expect Wen Xihe to be completely unmoved by his moral blackmail. Realizing that he couldn't win her over for the time being, he had no choice but to give up for now.

...

Cen Yu watched Wen Xi walk out of Bai Jinyu's office, and the other party still had that expressionless look.

Cen Yu sat on the sofa, and upon seeing Wen Xi, immediately turned his head, clearly indicating through his actions—

Don't talk to me, you poor Alpha!

Wen Xihe wasn't annoyed; he was used to Cen Yu doing this anyway.

After going to the office, the student council was no longer worried about them colluding, so Wen Xihe simply sat on the sofa opposite Cen Yu.

"Stay away from me," Cen Yu snorted.

Wen Xi glanced at herself, who was at least half a meter away from Cen Yu, and asked, "Where do you want me to go?"

"Hang it outside the student union building?"

"..." Strange, why has this person suddenly become so eloquent?

Cen Yu was puzzled. Just as he was about to say something sarcastic, he heard Wen Xihe ask again, "What was your punishment?"

"Do you think I'd let you know that I'm going to be doing odd jobs in the student council?" Cen Yu thought to himself, but outwardly remained dismissive. "Don't ask questions that aren't your business."

Wen Xihe immediately understood that the punishment given to Cen Yu was probably something shameful, so he was embarrassed to say it.

While the two were chatting, Lan Yao and Sang Huaizhou went to the president's office separately, and came out separately a few minutes later.

Cen Yu wasn't surprised, after all, both of them were from noble families, and their respective families had their own considerations. Bai Jinyu knew this, so of course she wouldn't deliberately try to win them over.

He watched as Jiang Yan finally entered the president's office, and only came out half an hour later.

At this moment, Jiang Yan looked somewhat dejected, as if he had been punished severely, which piqued Cen Yu's curiosity.

Now that they all knew their respective punishments, the five prepared to leave. Bai Jinyu came out to see them off, stood by the door, said goodbye to them, and then said to Cen Yu, "Come to the student council to report tomorrow."

"The time will be sent to your communicator later."

"Understood, President."

Cen Yu cursed Bai Jinyu in his heart, thinking she was no good. Bai Jinyu simply nodded, then said goodbye to everyone before returning to her office.

...

As they left the student council building, Jiang Yan couldn't help but ask, "Senior, what was your punishment?"

"It's a secret mission the president gave me," Cen Yu said dismissively. "Something you Betas wouldn't know!"

What kind of tasks could they possibly have? It's all just menial work.

Jiang Yan thought to himself that Bai Jinyu had just told him that because he and Cen Yu were the masterminds, they would be punished the most severely. Cen Yu would have to do odd jobs in the student council, while he would be forbidden from touching his precious mecha in the warehouse for half a month.

From some perspectives, Bai Jinyu is indeed a vicious person.

He knew that Jiang Yan cared a lot about his mecha, and he also knew that Cen Yu was concerned about his image, so he deliberately punished them based on their personalities.
