Chapter 437: Chapter 277: Unexpected! Missing Student (Third Update, Please Subscribe)_1

In Mist City Arts and Science University, a girl’s dorm room.

"Hmph, the ship of friendship turns over so easily, Xiao Ping, you didn’t invite me to have the first milk tea of Autumn. o(╥﹏╥)o"

Xiao Zhao didn’t go home or travel during this National Day holiday due to tight finances.

Staying at school was the best choice, because there were not only affordable and delicious cafeteria food but also relatively low expenses.

Plus, she could utilize the heaps of time during the National Day holiday to study in the library. Perhaps, bumping into a handsome guy?

That morning, Xiao Zhao went to the Book Ship Library to read for the whole morning. After lunch, she arranged to see a movie with a roommate in the afternoon.

They saw "Super Combat Team," and Xiao Zhao was so excited.

After all, "Super Combat Team" was produced by their school’s animation studio and animation students. She felt a sense of intimacy watching it in the cinema.

After returning in the evening, Xiao Zhao noticed a trending meme on the internet, "The first milk tea of Autumn."

Then, Xiao Zhao decided to follow the trend and sent a message to her high school best friend, Xiao Ping.

What a genuine response!

Xiao Ping: Darling, love is mutual and so is milk tea. Why don’t you send me the first cup of Autumn milk tea first? Then I’ll send you one. [haha_big_laugh_meme.jpg]

Well, nothing could be done about it.

For updating her Twitter posts, Xiao Zhao sent Xiao Ping 52 yuan through Whatsapp, remarking it as "the first milk tea of Autumn."

Then, Xiao Ping also sent Xiao Zhao 52 yuan with the same remark, "the first milk tea of Autumn".

Great, now they could post this on their Twitter feed, hehehe!

However!

Just at this moment, Xiao Zhao’s roommate, Xiao Zhang, screamed: "Ah!!!!!!! Xiao Zhao, the first cup of Autumn milk tea!!!!! Principal Ding is treating every student to the first cup of Autumn milk tea!!!!!"

"What?"

Xiao Zhao didn’t hear it clearly. All she knew was that Xiao Zhang seemed extremely excited.

"Milk tea! The first cup of Autumn milk tea!" Xiao Zhang ran over and shouted excitedly.

However, Xiao Zhao shook her head skillfully, "Love is mutual and so does milk tea. Why don’t you get me a cup first?"

"Not that, check Twitter!" Xiao Zhang quickly shook her head.

"Huh?"

Xiao Zhao felt a bit dazed by Xiao Zhang, then picked up her phone and opened the Twitter app.

Once she opened it, Xiao Zhao immediately saw a Twitter post from her following [Mist City Arts and Science University] official Twitter account. The post accompanied two pictures, one was a movie poster announcing that "Super Combat Team" had grossed over 400 million yuan, and the other was a screenshot of the "The first milk tea of Autumn" payment transaction!

Then Xiao Zhao blinked her eyes and carefully read the content of this post by the university’s official Twitter account.

[Mist City Arts and Science University] v: Congratulations to our school’s animated film "Super Combat Team" for breaking 400 million yuan at the box office in three days! To celebrate this great news, Principal Ding has decided to treat all the teachers and students to the first cup of Autumn milk tea.

"Wow!"

After seeing this Twitter post from the official school account, Xiao Zhao was instantly thrilled.

How wonderful is Principal Ding?

Our school’s animated movie, "Super Combat Team," is a big hit, and Principal Ding decided to treat all the teachers and students to a cup of Autumn milk tea today!

"Is it real?" Xiao Zhao couldn’t help asking with a frown.

"If the school says so, it must be real. Why don’t we check the school’s public account to see if we can claim it?"

"Yeah, right, today’s not April’s fool day!"

Xiao Zhao nodded and quickly switched her phone screen to Whatsapp, where she found the Mist City Arts and Science University’s official account.

As a freshman of Mist City Arts and Science University, Xiao Zhao thought the school’s public account was incredibly handy. It could be used for handling all sorts of things, even for recharging your account.

It must be admitted, they did an excellent job with the school’s public account service.

After entering the public account, Xiao Zhao prominently saw a link regarding the claim for "the first cup of Autumn milk tea."

After entering the link, it led to a page where she had to input her student ID.

Xiao Zhao quickly entered her student ID and then input her ID for verification. The system was supposed to match the input student ID and ID with the ones from the school’s student information database. Once the verification was correct, she would be able to claim the "the first cup of Autumn milk tea."

"Verification successful, student Zhao Siyan, please click to claim Principal Ding’s treat of the first cup of Autumn milk tea—[click to claim]!"

Xiao Zhao saw the popped-up interface and clicked on "claim"!

"Congratulations on successfully claiming Principal Ding’s treat of the first cup of Autumn milk tea. It’s been instantly transferred to your Whatsapp balance!"

After successfully claiming it, in the dialogue box of the official account, there was an image of a transferred payment marked with "the first cup of Autumn milk tea." Although it was an image, Xiao Zhao saw an instant payment notification appearing on the notification bar of her phone.

Xiao Zhao immediately exited the official account, and just as expected, she saw a payment reminder. The first cup of Autumn milk tea, 52 yuan!

To confirm it was real, Xiao Zhao intentionally checked her Whatsapp balance, and indeed, it increased from 102 yuan to 154 yuan!

"Wow, indeed, 52 yuan was credited! Principal Ding really treated me to the first cup of Autumn milk tea!"

Xiao Zhao was so excited she was almost jumping.

When Xiao Zhang heard from Xiao Zhao that it was real and the money had genuinely arrived, he happily went to the school public account to collect it too!

At this moment!

Thousands of students at Mist City Arts and Science University knew about this news, and they were spreading it to each other in various school chat groups, telling everyone to get the first cup of Autumn Tea that Principal Ding was treating everyone to!

"Oh my, it’s actually real!"

"Hahaha, I thought Principal Ding was joking at first."

"I’ve got it, what about you guys?"

"I’ve successfully collected it too, 52 yuan, it’s great!"

"Principal Ding is so trendy, he’s already using the gag that just started trending today."

"Wow, Principal Ding is taking such good care of us!"

"I feel great, now I also have the first cup of Autumn Tea!"

The students who received the first cup of Autumn Tea red packet were utterly excited and joyful. The feeling of getting treated by Principal Ding was simply too fantastic, wasn’t it?

At this moment, Ding Yue was showing a slight smile from the corner of his mouth while watching the online popularity of this incident in his apartment room. The pearl milk tea in his hand instantly tasted better.

Even though this cup of pearl milk tea was worth over one million yuan!

"Principal Ding, I’ve collected it too!" After buying the pearl milk tea for Principal Ding, Wen Ruohan learned that Principal Ding was planning to treat all the teachers and students to the first cup of Autumn Tea. Therefore, immediately after this feature was launched on the school’s public account, she hurriedly went to receive Principal Ding’s benefits.

Xu Bin was really awesome. The program link that Ding Yue asked him to create, which was expected to take half an hour, Xu Bin finished in less than 20 minutes.

Then, Ding Yue topped up his account with enough money, let students collect a limited 52-yuan Autumn Tea red packet by entering their student ID and identification number on the school’s public account!

"Principal Ding, can each of the more than 30,000 teachers and students in the entire school receive one portion?" asked Wen Ruohan curiously.

Ding Yue nodded immediately, smiling and said, "That’s right, everyone can get a cup of Autumn Tea."

"A 52 yuan cup for more than 30,000 people, wow, that’s over a million!" Wen Ruohan was stunned.

Principal Ding was too rich and too generous, wasn’t he?

However, upon thinking about it, the school’s animated movie had already exceeded 400 million yuan in box office revenue. They didn’t know how much money this had made for the school. A mere one million seemed to be just daily pocket money for Principal Ding, right?

After all, Wen Ruohan knew that Principal Ding could definitely make a lot of money every day. After all, Principal Ding does own the Feiyue Group!

On Twitter, there was already a trending hashtag "The First Cup of Autumn Tea."

But very shortly, a new trending topic with even higher popularity appeared—#OtherPeople’sAutumnTea#

Exactly!

Ding Yue’s marketing strategy not only incorporated today’s popular jokes and the Super Combat Team’s box office record of breaking 400 million but also genuinely added a great amount of popularity to Mist City Arts and Science University.

"Wow, I’m so jealous."

"Is this what other people’s schools are like?"

"Mist City Arts and Science University again? This university is too good to its students!"

"Other people’s schools treat their students like treasures, our school doesn’t regard us as people!"

"I also want a cup of Autumn Tea. Principal Ding, I want it! I want it! I want it too!"

"Oh my! One Autumn Tea per person? They’re really rich!"

"Is this what is called ’Rich and Capricious’?"

"Let’s be honest, with the high box office revenue of ’Super Combat Team’, Mist City Arts and Science University has simply made a fortune. To principal Ding, spending over a million on milk tea is just a drop in the ocean."

"So here comes the question, can students not from Mist City Arts and Science University also get the milk tea?"

"I’m so envious, at this moment, I wish I were a student at Mist City Arts and Science University."

Ding Yue watched the rising popularity. In just a blink, this trending topic had directly shot to the top of the Twitter Trending list.

This was indeed earning a lot of popularity for Mist City Arts and Science University!

Just when Ding Yue was satisfied with his successful marketing campaign, suddenly his phone rang.

"Director Qi?"

Ding Yue couldn’t help but frown.

How come Qi Chunsheng, the director of the Dean’s Office, was calling him this late at night?

It was known that Qi Chunsheng never called him at this non-working time.

"Hello, Director Qi, what’s the matter?" asked Ding Yue, perplexed after picking up the call.

"Principal Ding, one of our students went missing. It has been over 48 hours, and the student’s parents have been unable to contact the student!"

Over the phone, Qi Chunsheng’s very anxious voice could be heard.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue suddenly felt a buzzing sound in his head!

An emergency situation, a student went missing after the holidays!

This was not a good thing!
