The devil is by your side

Chapter 113 A tie
"How is it? Director Ouyang, tell her quickly?" Xia Luoluo looked at Director Ouyang anxiously, urging him to tell her the result quickly.

"I agree to support you!" Director Ouyang said with a smile.

"Great!" Hearing Director Ouyang's decision, Charlotte jumped up excitedly.

"Congratulations, Luo Luo!" Joe Arthur said with a smile.

"Humph, get carried away, what does it look like?" Director Ouyang glared at Charlotte.

"Thank you, Director Ouyang, I'm so excited." Charlotte stuck out her tongue and said gratefully to Director Ouyang.

"Don't be too busy thanking me. If you want to thank me, thank your grandparents who have spoken well for you." Director Ouyang said: "If they hadn't been praising you in front of me, I wouldn't have agreed so easily. In the future Come back and see them when you have time."

"Well! I will definitely come back to visit them often." Charlotte nodded solemnly.

"Also, Granny Miao and the others specially asked me to tell you that when you go to Japan, you must not let those little devils underestimate us. They must see and see how powerful we are! Can you do it?" Director Ouyang stared Charlotte.

"Promise to complete the task!" Charlotte puffed up her chest and saluted Director Ouyang.

the next day.

Today is the day for the meeting of the Council of the Royal Academy of Saint Laurent.

Early in the morning, Charlotte and Joe Arthur rushed to the Royal Academy of Saint Laurent with Director Ouyang.

Inside Long Zeye's study.

Sitting behind the desk, Long Zeye tapped the table with his slender fingers, and asked in a deep voice: "Pei Mo, what happened to what I asked you to do, what's going on with Joe Arthur?"

"Master, Master Qiao persuaded Director Ye and Director Qian to agree to support him, and the principal also agreed to support Miss Luoluo. Director Wang, Director Sun and Director Han are now on our side. The situation on Director Ouyang's side is not yet Clear, but my subordinates reported that Master Qiao and Ms. Luo Luo went to the nursing home to find Director Ouyang and stayed there for three days. As for Mr. Long, I have always been in charge of these matters." Pei Mo told Long Zeye report.

"Stayed together in the nursing home for three days?" Hearing this, Long Zeye narrowed his eyes, and a dim light flashed in his eyes.

Before Pei Mo could speak, he got up and ordered: "Let's go, the meeting is about to start, I want to see what trouble Luo Luo and Qiao Arthur can make."

The car carrying Joe Arthur, Xia Luoluo and Director Ouyang stopped at the door of the meeting room.

It happened that Long Zeye's car also arrived.

The four got out of the car and met at the door of the meeting room.

"Director Ouyang, long time no see." Long Zeye held out his hand to Director Ouyang.

Director Ouyang glanced at Long Zeye's outstretched hand, but he didn't reach out to hold it. He nodded slightly to Long Zeye, "Master Long, long time no see."

Long Zeye withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, and stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation to Director Ouyang.

"Director Ouyang, please go first."

Director Ouyang did not refuse, and walked into the meeting room first.

Joe Arthur, as the president of the student council, will attend the meeting as a non-voting delegate, while ordinary student candidate Charlotte is not eligible to attend the meeting.

"Lolo, wait for me at the door, I'll take care of everything, don't worry." Qiao Arthur lightly hammered his chest with his backhand.

"Well, Senior Arthur, I believe in you!" Charlotte looked at Joe Arthur trustingly, and nodded heavily.

Charlotte watched Joe Arthur walk into the meeting room.

Long Zeye looked at Xia Luoluo with a gloomy face, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, showing a mocking smile, and grabbed Xia Luoluo's shoulder with his big palm, forcing her to turn around.

"Do you really think that finding Joe Arthur, the new backer, can solve all problems? Charlotte, you are so naive, no one can go against my wishes!" Long Zeye narrowed his eyes and looked at Charlotte with unkind eyes lo.

"Even if you have a thousand ways to obstruct us, we still have to try a thousand and one times! I am willing to trust Senior Arthur, this is my own business, Master Long is too lenient, if you have the ability, Let's just wait and see!" Enduring the pain from her shoulder, Xia Luoluo did not back down, and stared at Long Zeye stubbornly and said.

"Hmph!" Long Zeye snorted coldly, and strode into the conference room.

The pressure on the shoulders dropped sharply, Xia Luoluo reached out and rubbed his shoulders, and suddenly lost the courage to face Long Zeye.She was a little apprehensive and clenched her fists quietly.

The directors arrived one after another, and the number of people in the meeting room gradually increased. However, because Long Zeye kept releasing the low pressure with a cold face, the atmosphere in the meeting room was very depressing. This humanoid refrigerator is farther away.

At ten o'clock, the meeting officially began.

"Presumably everyone already knows the purpose of our meeting today." Long Zeye said lightly, scanning the audience, "Today, under the supervision of the student union, the council will determine the purpose of this trip to Japan for exchange and study in a fair, just and open manner." student list."

After Long Zeye finished speaking, he signaled that Pei Mo, who attended the meeting with him as an assistant, sent a list to each director.

"This is the list of candidates for this time. Next, we will start voting on the students on the list. If the number of votes cannot exceed half, they will be disqualified and replaced in turn." Seeing that all the directors have received the list, Long Zeye turned his head and said to the principal : "Principal, it is up to you to read the list. Everyone will vote by show of hands. Among the directors present, you are the oldest and most experienced. You will count the votes."

After Long Zeye finished speaking, both the principal and Director Ouyang expressed no objection.

The principal picked up the list and began to read it out, and everyone voted in turn.

Everyone present knew that the first few students were just going through the motions, and the real highlight was at the end.

The first few students voted almost unanimously, and the directors didn't mean anything.

Looking at the list in his hand, the principal secretly glanced at Long Zeye, who was sitting upright with a serious expression on his face, cleared his throat, and continued to read: "Xia Luoluo, class D, first year, please raise your hand if you agree."

As Joe Arthur expected, Director Ye, Director Qian, Director Ouyang and the principal raised their hands.

"Four votes." Director Ouyang said.

"The number of votes is not more than half, cancel her quota, and the next classmate will fill it in." Director Sun showed a flattering smile to Long Zeye, and asked for instructions.

"Wait a minute, we only have eight directors here today, and Xia Luoluo's support rate is currently 50.00%. It may not be appropriate to make such an arbitrary decision. I think it's better to ask Mr. Long for instructions." The principal said.

"Are you still asking Mr. Long for instructions? Isn't Master Long right here?" Director Sun glared at the principal.

He looked down at his watch, "I have to go back to the company for a meeting later, please hurry up and don't waste time on such insignificant things."

Hearing Director Sun's words, Director Ouyang looked unhappy, and turned to look at Long Zeye, "Master Long, I want to be fair to the old man, now we are counting support votes, and Director Sun said that Xia Luoluo's approval rate If there is no majority, she cannot be the candidate for this time. In turn, her opposition rate is not more than half, and her quota should not be cancelled. I think we should tell Mr. Long, no matter what Mr. Long does in the end. The decision is fair to Charlotte."

Director Ouyang's voice fell, and all the directors present began to discuss.

Upon seeing this, Director Ouyang continued to lobby all the directors, "I have also been in contact with Xia Luoluo, and in my opinion, since she can become a candidate, it can be seen that her grades are still very good, and I think it is even more rare that she has a A loving heart and a persistent perseverance.”

Recalling Xia Luoluo's performance in the nursing home for the elderly in the past three days, Director Ouyang said with satisfaction: "You may not know that I didn't intend to interfere with your meeting today, and I didn't even plan to attend it. After Xia Luoluo found me, I took a look at the two young people by the way, and deliberately handed over the most difficult old man to take care of Xia Luoluo. I thought she would not be able to persist for a day, but unexpectedly, she persisted Yes, the old people like her very much."

"Director Ouyang, it turns out that you have already had private contact with Xia Luoluo, so it's no wonder you talk to her." Director Han snorted coldly.

"What do you know? There are many children with good academic performance these days, but very few are caring, persistent and not coddled. Student Charlotte is such a rare person. Our Saint Laurent Royal Academy has paid great attention to cultivating The virtues of the students, most of you are also graduated from the Royal Academy of Saint Laurent, all of you dare to touch your conscience, pat your chest and tell me that the decision you made today is not mixed Private interests?"

Hearing Director Ouyang's words, Director Han lost his face a little. He graduated from the Saint Laurent Royal Academy, and Principal Ouyang was his teacher.

After listening to Director Ouyang's words, everyone began to feel a little shaken.

Now that Director Ouyang has said that, if they still insist on opposing it, it seems that they have ulterior motives, as if they deliberately ruined the future of a student with good character and academics for some other shady interests...

Long Zeye frowned and looked at Director Ouyang.

The originally powerful situation for him was tilted again because of Director Ouyang's words, but among all the directors, Director Ouyang's words were the most important.

"Okay, don't chatter below. Now four directors support Xia Luoluo and four oppose it. Take a break for 15 minutes. We will have a second round of voting later." Long Zeye rubbed his forehead, stood up, and said to said the directors.

After speaking, he strode out of the meeting room.

Outside the meeting room, seeing the directors walk into the meeting room one by one, Xia Luoluo has been anxiously waiting for the result outside the door.

She didn't know what the outcome would be before the meeting ended.

"Hey, isn't this Charlotte? Why are you standing here?" A mean female voice sounded.

Xia Luoluo subconsciously turned her head to look at the person coming.
