In the complex corridors, I was alone, shuttling between floors carrying a pile of materials like a small mountain.

"Hey, Juxi! Why hasn't our class's project schedule arrived yet?"

"It's here!"

I had just handed the project schedule to the male class president of this class when another girl shouted.

"Juxi, give us a questionnaire about school life. I think the school should build a public bathhouse for everyone to use, so..."

"Stop! I'm only responsible for giving you the form. Go talk to the student council president about this kind of thing."

I collapsed on a bench in the school garden, exhausted and covered in sweat, not even wanting to open my eyes.

All I could do was complain.

"Why do I have to suffer like this?"

To understand why I became a laborer for the student council, we have to go back to before I enrolled in school.

"Hey, what are you up to?"

Even when facing my father, who had just been dumped by someone, I couldn't speak nicely, especially since he abandoned me and my mother to focus on his so-called serious matters.

He only returned once a year and usually on New Year's Eve so we could have a family dinner. At least he was a decent man who cared about his career and the stability of our family, unlike some people...

Huh? Why am I thinking like this? Normally we would call this phenomenon - overthinking.

"Son, why are you saying hurtful things again? Today, Dad called to tell you that I arranged for you to meet with a good school!"

"And then?"

"The principal hopes to meet you tomorrow, so ride your bike to Nanjing Road at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. It's the famous and desirable..."

Beep beep beep...

The old man is babbling on the phone again. I immediately hung up as quickly as possible.

"Tomorrow, huh?"

Sitting in front of my desk, I opened my computer, clicked on the desktop to search for a map - Sakura Sea Academy.

"Hmm, I didn't expect the school my dad found to be so big. Is it a combined school for junior high and high school?"

I scrolled through the school's data catalogs with the mouse, and inadvertently discovered a member list of the student council.

The first photo on the website made me particularly familiar - long black hair reaching the waist, and ocean-like blue eyes that seemed to contain a familiar warmth.

Her actions kept appearing in my mind, flooding my brain like a massive amount of information, tearing at every nerve.

"Ah ah ah..."

I forcefully threw the mouse on the floor, but the burst of information deeply pierced my heart, causing unbearable pain.

"Huff huff huff..."

"Beep beep beep... Hey, son, is there something troubling you that you can't talk to Daddy about?"

"That's enough, I don't have time for a verbal battle with you. Can the president of the Sakura Sea Academy's student council meet me?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I thought that it wouldn't be difficult for my father to gather some personal information with his connections. So, I sent him the photo of the student council president.

But as soon as he received the picture, my father lost his voice. I yelled at him into the phone for a while before he pretended to be in pain and said:

"Son, we are father and son!"

"Yes, but what does that have to do with helping me?"

My father's tone at this moment became somewhat inexplicable.

"But you are clearly deliberately making things difficult for your old man. That girl is the daughter of my business partner, and if I investigate her, I might be charged with kidnapping!"

"So, you won't do it then?"

"I..."

"Well then, our father-son relationship is hereby terminated!"

I intentionally raised my voice to express my determination. My father immediately panicked and pleaded.

"Don't think like that, son! Wait for me... hey, hurry up and tell me about the information on the heiress of the Xin Hai Group!"

"Don't worry, Dad. I'm just teasing you. Bye!"

I smiled and pressed the end call button on my phone, ignoring Dad's confused shouts on the other end.

"Hello? Hello? Son..." (Hangs up)

After hanging up the phone, I pondered for a while. It didn't really matter to me who those people were that even my dad couldn't handle. But my dad, being involved with a mercenary group, had considerable assets and even a private army. So who could possibly intimidate this group of fierce men?

"Let's search the internet for Xin Hai Group."

Since this group could make my dad retreat, they must be a powerful and influential organization.

So, with a lollipop in my mouth, I quickly typed on the keyboard and searched for the keyword "Xin Hai Group."

"Ha!"

The search results for Xin Hai Group...

Since the beginning of the new era, this company has spread its wealth and connections all over the world. It can be said that they are a private institution that enforces private law. In this era without government regulation, they have become one of the leading forces in the few remaining safe zones for humanity!

It is thanks to them that humans are able to survive in this dangerous world.

Later, the founder of Xin Hai Group received honors and awards from the Allied Army, but all those rewards were buried along with a hero named Juxi, also burying the imperial Army.

Speaking of Juxi, when I was a kid, I always got dragged into playing the role of the great hero Juxi in school dramas. People liked me because I looked like him and even had the same name, so I was quite popular in middle school.

Now my dad wants to send me to a school full of nouveau riche. I can't really handle it. How can a guy like me, who grew up in a poor environment, get along with those rich kids?

"My dad always acts on impulse without thinking!"

Feeling completely speechless as a dad, I casually turned off the light switch and went upstairs to my room. I turned on the starry light in the room, creating a beautiful scene like a sea of stars.

"This is my own castle!" I closed my eyelids peacefully, enjoying the tranquility in this moment.

I wonder what the new school will be like?

"Now it's finally time to say goodbye. I've been here for too long."

Something unforgettable happened in my first year of high school, and since then, I haven't gone to school for a year and a half.

"It's been a year and a half? Time really flies!"

By the way, I heard that Yu Nai is the head of the Training Department at Sakura Sea Academy. I should go there and get some guidance.

I looked out the window and saw that Yu Nai's window lights were already off. It was too late, so I decided to go to school tomorrow.

Yawn... I gradually fell asleep.

I feel like I forgot something important...

In the morning, the sun was already high in the sky, and my phone had over 30 missed calls, all from Dad!

I glanced at the alarm clock and realized it was already 9:50 in the morning. How come it didn't go off?

"Oh my god, what do I do now?"

"My clothes, where are they?"

"Pants... only one sock?!"

Finally, after washing up and getting dressed, I only had two minutes left before the reporting time...

I hurriedly grabbed my mountain bike and rushed to Sakura Sea Academy.

It's winter now, so I have to be careful while biking on the road to ensure my safety. It would be a shame if I accidentally fell and hurt myself.

The reason why Sakura Sea Academy is named as such is mainly because of the large cherry blossom forest in front of the school gate. But since it's winter, the cherry blossoms on the sides of the road have yet to bloom, and my heart felt as messy as the bare tree roots. It should be past ten o'clock by now, I guess the school has already started.

"......" (It was 10:05, and the school gate was tightly closed.)

"Oh no!"

I exclaimed in frustration, "The school rules are so strict, and I was only five minutes late."

So I looked around to see if there was any other entrance, and my eyes focused on the less than three-meter high fence of the college.

"Heave ho! Heave ho!"

Being locked up at home regularly has weakened my physical strength. Usually, I could easily climb over it with just a few jumps.

My forehead started to sweat, and finally, I was just one step away from climbing over!

"Danger!"

Was that girl behind me calling me?

"Huh?"

Just as I touched the top of the wall, the person behind me pulled me down from the wall.

I fell heavily on the ground, looked up, and oh! It was a girl in a sea-blue uniform, with a nice facial contour, fair skin, and slightly rosy lips. And... black hair and blue eyes, the student council president?!

"Hello, President!"

In a fluster, I saluted her. I felt so embarrassed that on the first day of school, I left such a bad impression on the student council president. How can I survive in the school from now on?

"Student, what you did was very dangerous. The fence of our school has high voltage electricity that could electrocute you!"

"What? Why would an ordinary school have those things?"

I widened my eyes in disbelief and gasped at the thought of the electrified fence that nearly sent me to heaven.

"Are you that dumb?"

I never expected the ice queen, who always appeared superior, to utter such vulgar language. This was enough to shatter the dreams of countless men.

"We do this to protect everyone's safety, and as for your fence climbing incident..."

"What do you want?"

The student council president impatiently reached into her pocket and issued an announcement.

"Since you are a first-time offender as a transfer student, we won't expel you..."

"Thank you, President!"

I bowed again, then tried to avoid her and enter the school, but she grabbed my shoulder firmly.

"Oh my, so you think you can leave just like that?!"

The president called me with a sinister voice that made me shudder.

"Rei..."

The president casually flicked her hair back and consulted the silver-haired girl, who seemed to be her attendant, behind her. (I just noticed that there was another person behind the president. She really has a weak presence!)

"It seems our student council has no male members, right?"

"Just three girls, President!"

"Well then!"

Saying that, the president took out a chocolate bar from her pocket and bit it, then said.

"From today onwards, you will be the odd jobs staff of our student council!"

I became a member of the student council, and also the odd jobs staff?

"Eh--!"

I almost fell back onto the snow, feeling like I had fallen into a big trap.

The president smiled with raised eyebrows and extended her hand towards me.

"From now on, please enlighten me."
