Yao Si toughened up and walked to the center of the stage to introduce herself. “Everyone… I’m Yao Si.”

The chatter increased instantaneously, and dagger like stares flew in her direction, the majority of the from women. This was practically a battlefield…Nephew Gu, remember what you put me through!

“Hehehehe… To have President Gu himself elect you, you must be a remarkable student.” The emcee chuckled as he walked towards Yao Si. “As President Gu’s first competitor who is also an elementary student, what special talents do you have? Could you share them with the rest of us?”

Yao Si stiffened. “I-I don’t have any talents!” None at all.

“Great!”

Gu Shucheng applauded vigorously. Everything Her Highness said was out of the world.

The next instant, the entire hall exploded into a roaring applause.

Yao Si, “…”

The emcee, “…”

The student union,”…”

The entire student body, “…”

Nephew Gu, are you sure you aren’t out to embarrass me!

○|￣|_

“Hah… Hahheh…” The emcee was left speechless. Stiffly, he muttered, “Th-the voting shall commence! Let’s welcome Ex-president Gu.”

Nephew Gu walked forward, stopping a step behind Yao Si. His expression was serious, with just a hint of excitement.

“The voting shall commence!”

Upon the emcee’s order, the students opened their optical computers and cast their votes. The stage had two separate screens, with Gu Shucheng’s name on one and Yao Si’s on the other. Below their names was a number, with one side’s jumping upwards rapidly. (It was obviously Gu Shucheng’s side.)

Below Yao Si’ name was an incredibly exasperating zero. It was only after Nephew Gu switched on his optical computer that the number finally jumped up to “1”. Yao Si felt her entire being burning up. She wanted to go home!

“The voting has ended.” The emcee announced after five minutes. “Yao Si, 2 votes, Gu Shucheng 15,463 votes. The student union president for this year will be…”

“I give up!” Gu Shucheng raised his arm to announce before the emcee could finish his sentence.

“…”

F**k! Nephew Gu, if you stir anymore trouble, I’m going to sever all ties with you!

“President… President Gu,” the emcee called out with an agonized expression. “If you give up, we won’t be able to settle on a president today.”

“Why not? If I give up, the position will naturally be given to her.” Gu Shucheng glared at the emcee with fury before adding, “What do you outsiders know?”

“No… no!” Even though they had worked before in the past, why hadn’t she realized he was such an impulsive person. “According to the rules, the candidate can only qualify if they receive more than 50% of the votes. This means that only you qualify.”

“From what I remember, an ex-president has the ability to disqualify a candidate.”

“Indeed.”

“Then I shall disqualify myself.”

“…” You can’t do that…

“You should be honored.” Her Highness is willing to cooperate in this little game, what more can you ask for? “She would definitely be the best president in the academy’s history!” Turning, Huo Qi ignored the emcee entirely and smiled brightly at Yao Si. “Your Highness, congratulations on your success.”

The entire committee stared speechless. Was the president always this reckless?

“Er, Nephew Gu…” Yao Si wanted to express her opinion, that she had no intention to join the student union, but someone ran out from the side at this moment.

“F*ck, Boss Gu, what are you up to?” A blonde-haired student took large strides toward them, looking Yao Si up and down in a derogatory manner. “Even if you no longer wish to be the president, how could you give it to a newcomer. Who even is she?”

“Bai Yi!” Gu Shucheng snapped, his face darkening as he glared at him. In a grave manner, he snarled, “Mind your language.”

“What’s wrong with my language?” Bai Yi retorted. “What’s wrong with you today? Even though we don’t treat the student union seriously, what are you trying to do this time? She can’t be a newbie from our race, right? I haven’t received any notifications, what about you?” He turned to glance at the others.

They shook their heads simultaneously.

Gu Shucheng received it, and it was a direct order from the Elders’ Council. He had been yanked to the council in the middle of the night to received the final decision from all the Elders. Even till today, it still seemed like a dream. Their glorious royal highness wanted to attend the Galactic Academy, and not at the high school level, but actually the elementary one. She wanted to experience life, and he was tasked with helping her and ensuring her safe. Most importantly, though, he had to remind her to be home for dinner.

Her Highness had entered the academy to experience life, so she probably wouldn’t want her identity to be exposed, so he didn’t send any information regarding it to the other bloodlings in the academy. But with her prestigious identity, it wouldn’t be right for her to be looked down upon. In this case, wouldn’t her becoming the student union president be the best solution?

“You don’t have to know.” Gu Shucheng glanced at them sideways. “She will definitely be the next president.”

“But…” I don’t want it!

“All right.” Before Yao Si could finish her sentence, a long-legged female walked forward, chuckling. “I believe Boss Gu. If you’re so insistent, let’s go with her!”

The next moment, Yao Si’s vote count jumped from two to three!

“Luo Ying… You…” Bai Yi took a glance in her direction, then grabbed his hair in frustration and sighed deeply. Soon though, his face collapsed into submission. “Forget it, you guys can do whatever you want, I’ll just follow suit!”

Bloodlings always deal with things in groups.

The next moment, the other members followed suit.

The number below Yao Si’s name jumped from three to ten.

“…” Er, didn’t the voting end already? How did the votes change!

“Pre-President.” The emcee was in disbelief. This was the presidential election, not an internal bloodling election. “The voting has ended, changing your votes is not permitted. Besides… even if it was allowed, it’s… still below 50%.”

“I think the votes are enough,” Gu Shucheng announced. “Since you’ve gained the support of half the committee, you’re definitely suited to be part of them.”

“But…”

“You are suited, indeed!” a lofty voice stated, and just then, a familiar figure walked out from the backstage.

“…” Yao Si’s face twitched…

Didn’t we agree for you to wait at home! Are you all trying to cause trouble for me!
