After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Happiness came so suddenly that Qin Guangfeng spoke much faster than usual.

In the past two years, local governments were generally under financial strain, and Jiangcheng University could only secure limited funding from the local authorities. Having Yang Hao, a billionaire, sponsor them was naturally a tremendous opportunity.

Don't just look at Yang expressing his intention to open his scholarship foundation to Jiangcheng University; this was merely the first step in establishing relations. There is always a second step after the first, and who could guarantee that there wouldn't be more collaborations to come?

Even setting aside the possibility of Yang donating to the school in the future, just establishing a partnership between Jiangcheng University and Yang's holding company could solve some of the employment issues for graduates.

"Borrow from the people and use it for the people," right?

"Businesses should indeed give back part of their wealth to society."

Yang Hao responded cheerfully, excelling as he did in singing his own praises.

Yang had always been very generous with charity donations, especially since he previously had a long-term mission called "Charitable," which doubled the cashback on the money he donated.

The restriction for this mission was to not make malicious donations, but today's situation clearly wasn't malicious!

In fact, this "Charitable" mission had earned Yang a considerable amount of money. Apart from the scholarship foundation he established at his alma mater, he had also donated two hundred million to a charity foundation organized by Jiangcheng City government that cared for orphans.

Moreover, making donations also allowed for some tax deductions, so supporting impoverished students and establishing scholarship foundations were all beneficial acts for Yang—essentially killing three birds with one stone!

Firstly, he could make money from the "Charitable" mission; secondly, he could earn a good reputation and reduce his taxes; lastly, he really helped those in need.

"An overview, Mr. Yang's mindset is leagues ahead of some other entrepreneurs!"

Qin Guangfeng immediately praised him, all smiles.

Originally, Yang had only been a potential contact in his eyes, since having another billionaire friend was always a plus.

But now, Qin Guangfeng's attitude towards Yang had changed—this was no longer just about having another billionaire friend. Yang was already showing potential to become the "God of Wealth" for Jiangcheng University.

In today's society, people might dare to disrespect other gods, but they definitely wouldn't dare offend the God of Wealth!

Faculty Housing.

Following his return to his room, Wu Di felt restless; after much indecision, he picked up his phone and dialed his PhD advisor, Wang Xuhui.

Wang wasn't just a PhD advisor at Jiangcheng University but also one of the vice presidents, holding significant clout within the school.

"Teacher, I'm really sorry to disturb you at this hour."

The phone rang for a long while before it was answered; the first thing Wu heard wasn't Wang Xuhui's voice but the sounds of people clinking their glasses.

Clearly, Wang Xuhui was in the middle of a dinner party.

"Wu, just a moment, I'll move to another spot."

"I have a student on the phone, you guys go ahead and drink..."

The sounds from the phone gradually became quieter until they disappeared.

A moment later, Wang Xuhui's voice rang out again: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Wu Di was the last PhD student Wang Xuhui mentored; after this batch, he devoted himself entirely to administrative duties.

The president of Jiangcheng University, Li Changjiang, was about to retire. The three vice presidents, including Wang Xuhui, were all eyeing his position eagerly. Though it was possible for someone to be appointed from above, the vice presidents certainly had a chance.

Wang Xuhui wanted to focus all his energy on administrative work to vie for the presidency.

The president of Jiangcheng University, who also carried the role of Party Committee Secretary, wielded absolute power. Securing this position meant becoming the top figure in Jiangcheng University.

"Teacher, I think I made a mistake."

Wu Di was Wang Xuhui's prized student; otherwise, he wouldn't have recommended him for a faculty position.

"You think?"

"Clarify it bit more."

Wang Xuhui's tone was stern; he was standing at the end of a corridor in a luxurious hotel, looking down at the shining night lights of Jiangcheng through a window.

But his capable student's words distracted him from enjoying the view. Wu Di was his recommendee and the student he was counting on to stand firm in the school, possibly even aiding in his battle for the presidency.

As such, Wang Xuhui placed great importance on Wu Di. He understood him well; he knew Wu wouldn't come to him unless it was important.

"It's just that I've been in contact with a female student more frequently..."

This sort of issue was somewhat embarrassing to mention. Wu Di took a while to organize his thoughts before he recounted the events of the day.

"How foolish!"

"How could you make such a basic mistake!"

"Is your brain just for decoration?"

Wang Xuhui blasted him, frustrated. The biggest taboo for male professors working in a university was becoming involved in romantic scandals with female students.

Such rumors, whether true or false, would spread astonishingly fast and could quickly ruin someone.

"What did Qin Guangfeng say?"

After his rebuke, Wang Xuhui frowned and asked.

"He didn't say much. He just mentioned that the school leadership would discuss the matter tomorrow and then decide!"

Wu Di replied quietly.

"A meeting to discuss?"

Wang Xuhui glanced out the window, pondering in silence.

"Teacher, there's something else."

"Wang Bingru's boyfriend is Yang Hao, a billionaire supposedly worth a hundred billion!"

Wu Di hadn't dared mention Yang Hao's involvement earlier, but after mulling it over, he felt it was meaningless not to bring him up.

Yang could potentially be a crucial factor in how the situation unfolded.

"Yang Hao?"

"A billionaire worth a hundred billion??"

A shocked Wang Xuhui suddenly raised his voice by an octave.

"You mean, you've also offended him??"

His voice rose another octave. His voice was usually quite deep, but now it was almost breaking. Discover hidden content at My Virtual Library Empire

"Well, kind of..."

Wu Di stuttered in response. From his teacher's reaction, the situation seemed more severe than he had anticipated, making him inevitably nervous.

"Wu, you usually act so prudently, how could you be so foolish this time!"

"Either cause no trouble, or if you must, cause a big one!"

"You had to stir up trouble not from the ground but from the skies!"

Over the phone, Wang Xuhui rebuked him furiously, but it was clear that his words carried more helplessness than anger.
