Chapter 110: Identity Revealed
Chapter 110: Identity Revealed
“Sister Xiaoyu, Sister Zhao is calling…”
Xiaoyu’s smart assistant rang while she was on her way to school. Xiaoyu quickly answered her phone and hung up after a while.
“What did Zhao Min want?” Chen Mo asked.
“Sister Zhao said the principal and your teacher will greet you at the school gate.”
“No way?”
Chen Mo smiled bitterly. The principal and teachers greeting a student like him felt like too big of a scene. It seemed he couldn’t return quietly anymore. He couldn’t stand up the principal and teachers.
“Why not? You donated 20 million for the school’s development. Of course they treat you like a treasure,” Xiaoyu said.
The car soon arrived at the main gate of Binhai University.
The main gate of Binhai University was crowded with many people. The principal and some leaders and teachers were among them. Many students were watching, including some student reporters.
Everyone was curious about which big shot was coming to the school that made the principal and so many leaders come out to welcome him.
When Chen Mo’s car stopped, there was a stir in the crowd.
“Alright, I wanted to keep a low profile, but it seems that’s not possible anymore,” Chen Mo said quietly as he looked at the scene at the school gate.
After the car door opened, Chen Mo and Xiaoyu got out.
Seeing Chen Mo dressed in ordinary casual clothes, many people started whispering. No matter how they looked, Chen Mo seemed like a regular student at their school, not like a big shot at all.
As soon as Chen Mo and Xiaoyu stepped out, the principal and teachers, who had been waiting for a while, came forward to greet them.
Who is he?
A big question popped into the minds of those who saw this. Some students were already recording short videos with their phones and posting them on their Moments.
“Principal Qiu, this is the chairman of our company and also a student of your school, Chen Mo,” Li Lingfeng introduced Chen Mo to everyone.
“Student Chen Mo, welcome back.”
The middle-aged man in the center, wearing gold-rimmed glasses with slicked-back hair, shook hands firmly with Chen Mo, a happy smile on his face.
He was the principal of Binhai University, Qiu Guofeng.
During his years at the university, Chen Mo had only seen the principal once, at the opening ceremony. This was the second time he had seen the school’s principal.
To the left of Qiu Guofeng was a very smart but short middle-aged man, Yang Xiaodong, the dean of Chen Mo’s physics department. To the right was Chen Mo’s homeroom teacher and counselor, Li Hong, along with the vice dean and other teachers.
“Principal, Dean, Teachers.” Chen Mo greeted all the teachers, unsure of what else to do in this situation.
“Young and capable, truly worthy of being a student of Binhai University. The school will be proud of you,” Qiu Guofeng said, looking at Chen Mo and nodding firmly.
“Thank you for the compliment, Principal. I don’t deserve it,” Chen Mo replied, feeling awkward.
“Teacher.”
After a brief exchange with the principal, Chen Mo turned to Li Hong. When he started his business, it was his counselor who helped him submit the application to skip classes.
“I didn’t expect you to become a big boss worth hundreds of millions so quickly.”
Li Hong’s face showed joy. She felt very proud that her student had achieved such great success.
Back when Chen Mo applied to skip classes for his business, she thought it was just a small venture. She never imagined that the company which became a business legend was founded by Chen Mo.
Now she felt that letting Chen Mo pursue his business back then was a very wise decision.
“In front of all of you, I will always be a student.”
“Let’s go inside. We’re still at the school gate, and there are too many people here,” Yang Xiaodong suggested, looking around.
Now that the physics department had such a talented student who created a business legend in such a short time, it was truly amazing.
The group walked into the school. The school forum and Moments were already flooded with various messages.
In the boys’ dormitory, Puyuan was scrolling through his Moments.
Suddenly, Puyuan looked doubtful. “Guys, stop for a moment. Stop gaming and come identify someone. Isn’t this Chen Mo?”
“What’s up? What about Chen Mo?” Fatty and Zhu Gang, who were playing games, gathered around.
“That’s Chen Mo, and the girl next to him is his girlfriend. You’re not mistaken,” Fatty said. “Why is he in a luxury car and being welcomed by the principal?”
“Is he a rich second generation?”
“Rich second generation? No way. Fatty, are you sure this girl is Chen Mo’s girlfriend?” Liu De asked.
“Of course I’m sure. That guy Chen Mo rented a computer repair shop on Food Street last semester. His girlfriend often brought him meals. I’ve seen her a few times,” Fatty replied.
“I’ve seen this girl before. She’s the assistant to the president of Legion Ant Company. I saw her in an interview video of the company,” Liu De, who had buckteeth, said.
“No way? Did Chen Mo land a rich, beautiful girl?” Niu Lei, who was muscular, asked.
Everyone in the dormitory looked at each other. The more they thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
“Wait, did you just say Legion Ant Company?” Puyuan seemed to remember something. “The chairman of Legion Ant Company is named Chen Mo, but no one has ever seen him. Same name? Coincidence?”
As soon as he said this, the dorm fell silent. Then, everyone gasped.
…
Chen Mo and Xiaoyu’s identities couldn’t stay hidden for long. Soon, people figured it out. Not long after Chen Mo arrived at Binhai University, a post appeared on the school forum.
“The chairman of Legion Ant Company, Chen Mo, is a senior student at our school named Chen Mo.”
The post reasoned based on the name of Legion Ant Company’s chairman, Chen Mo’s identity, his name, and Xiaoyu’s identity as the assistant to the president of Legion Ant Company.
Putting everything together, it was easy to conclude that the chairman of Legion Ant Company, Chen Mo, was the same Chen Mo welcomed by the principal.
Only a high-level figure like the chairman of Legion Ant Company would make the principal personally welcome him.
Once this post appeared, Binhai University’s forum became lively. Based on the analysis in the post, it seemed almost certain.
The chairman of Legion Ant Company had never appeared in public. No one expected that the legendary figure in the domestic business world, the chairman, was actually a student at their school.
“I won’t believe it even if you beat me to death. The person in charge of Legion Ant Company is a student at our school? Are you kidding me?”
“I believe it. I worked part-time on Food Street. I’ve seen this Chen Mo at the computer repair shop on Food Street. He’s really skilled. His girlfriend, the girl next to him, often brought him meals. They were very loving. I was fed dog food, so I remember it clearly.”
“Unbelievable. The legend is so close to me.”
“I’m Chen Mo’s classmate. We all agree with this. Our class group chat is going crazy right now.”
“I’m He Xiaoyu’s classmate. Xiaoyu really works as the assistant to the president at Legion Ant Company.”
“I want to be his second wife!”
The post was being shared and discussed wildly on Binhai University’s Moments.
Because one of their alumni was a legendary figure, the chairman of Legion Ant Company who had never appeared in public.
This was the first time the chairman of Legion Ant Company’s identity was exposed. Although it was just speculation, it was almost certain.
After Binhai University’s Moments and forum became lively, the post was quickly shared on Weibo.
Just the identity of the chairman of Legion Ant Company was enough to spark everyone’s curiosity. After all, Legion Ant, the newly risen tech giant, had already secured its place as one of the top companies in the domestic tech industry.
Chen Mo had never appeared in the media or in public. No one expected his identity to be suddenly revealed this time. It was a perfect chance to learn more about Chen Mo.
The internet was already heating up because of this post.
