In doing so, The implication was that there would be bossesbenefactors willing to contribute.
Pausing momentarily, Luis continued, "" under such circumstances. After a brief pause, Luis resumed his proposition.

Additionally in the upcoming election. Furthermore, I can helpassist you obtainin securing a first-class scholarship in this year's outstanding student selection.""
"".""A first-class scholarship?"" Sharon appeared somewhat tempted.

offered a glimmer of hope. However, Sharon knew well that her family was in dire need of money, so if she could truly get a first-class scholarship, it would be a relief.
However, Sharonfirmly shook her head, """I'm sorry, seniorSenior Luis, I can't do it!"" Even if!" The allure of the conditions were enticing, Sharoncould not sway her. She would never sellcompromise her body, absolutelydignity, not!
for anything. Luis' face immediately turned darkcountenance darkened at her words, ""refusal. "Sharon, ," he said icily, "I am not negotiating with you right now. As the president of the External Relations Department, I am assigning you a task, do. Do you understand?"" Luis coldly remarked.
Seeing that being soft didn't work, he resorted to being harsh.
Luis continued coldly, ""?" His tone had shifted from persuasive to authoritarian. "If you defy me, I will make sure," he continued, his voice colder still, "I will ensure you regret it. Do you understand?""

employment prospects. Sharon was naïve,, being naive and beingeasily intimidated by Luis, she was naturally scared right away.
, was immediately frightened by Luis' threats. Just at that momentas she was grappling with her fear, Luis changed his tone:
"". "Of course, as your senior, I can also help you think offind a solution.""
""," he offered. "What solution?""?" Sharon quickly asked.
"" hastily. "As long as you promiseagree to be my girlfriend, I will help you solve this sponsorship ofsecure the two hundred thousand!"" sponsorship," Luis said with aproposed, his smile.
At this moment, Luis finally revealed revealing his true intentions.
""Luis..."" Sharon's face changed.
""expression shifted at his words. "Luis..." she began, but he cut her off. "Sharon, so many people wantgirls yearn to be my girlfriend but don't have the chance, youopportunity. You should cherish it. What do you say? I promise, being my girlfriend only brings benefits, no drawbacks."" Luis," he said with a smile.
In fact, , still smiling. Luis had long since desiredcoveted Sharon's beauty and had wantedbeen trying to win her over for a while. He had hinted at it a few timesdropped hints before, but Sharon had always pretended not to understand.
So thisfeigned ignorance. This time, he decided to be direct, using his position to coerce Sharon.
""pressure her. "Promise me, okay?"" While saying this?" As he spoke, Luis reached out his hand, wanting to grabgrasp Sharon's fair jade-like hand.
Sharon was frightened and Startled, she quickly moved back, avoiding Luisrecoiled, but Luis showed no sign of giving up.
""was undeterred. "Stop it!""
Just then, a!" A stern voice sounded.
Immediately after,interrupted them. Eric rushed out with the and a chubby boy.
Eric went straight to Sharon and blocked Luis.
"" emerged from the shadows, rushing to Sharon's aid. "Luis, you are truly a beastly scum. a disgrace," Eric accused, "Using your position in the student council to engage in such dirty deeds, do you despicable acts, have anyyou no shame?"" Eric directly reprimanded.
""?" "That's right, you have absolutely no shame!""!" The chubby boy echoed angrily echoed.
"". "Who gave you the right to come out and insult me? Do you even know who I am? Are you worthy?!"" Luis's ?" Luis retorted, his face turned dark.
For Luis, having two people suddenly interfere and ruin darkening. The sudden interference and the disruption of his plan naturally madeinfuriated him extremely unhappy.
"". "Just a mere student council president, thinking highly of yourself, aren't you?""?" Eric sneered.
Luis may bemight have been able to intimidate regularordinary students with his position as the student council president, but not Eric? There was a world of difference.
At this moment, the chubby boy spoke with arrogance:
""Luis, donot so easily cowed. "Do you know who my buddy Eric is? You'll be scared if I tell you!""
""!" the chubby boy boasted. "Scared? Haha!""!" Luis couldn't help but laugh.
laughed dismissively. After taking a closer look atscrutinizing Eric and the chubby boy's appearance, Luis could easily determineboy, he concluded that they didn't comewere not from a privileged backgroundbackgrounds. They were just by their looks. They definitely were two poor boys.
"" "I am warning you both now, back off immediately. If you provoke me, I can guarantee that you won't be able to survive in school!""!" Luis pointedthreatened, pointing at Eric, his voice filled with menace.
"". "A mere head of the student council, and yet you have such power and authority? It's laughable,""," Eric shook his head and sneered.
Eric He understood why these student council members dared to act so arrogantly. It was all about their connection to power, which inflated their ego and allowed them to indulge in it.
"" "That's right, I do have that much power. Crushing you two is as simple as crushing ants! You guys are in for a treat!""!" Luis declared proudly.
Seeing the situationescalating tension, Sharon quickly said, ""intervened, "Luis, this has nothing to do with them! You just wanted me to raise two hundred thousand in sponsorship, right? Fine! I agree!""
!" In Sharon's eyes, Eric was no match for a student council member like Luis, so she didn't want to involve Eric and promptly agreed to Luis's demand.
"" "Sharon, just because of this guy, you dare to agree to such a task? Fine, let's see how you finish it! And if you fail, you know the consequences!""!" Luis's face darkened.

Luis knew very well how difficult it was to raiseacutely aware of the monumental challenge that lay in raising two hundred thousand in sponsorship. The He reasoned that the only conceivable way for an ordinary female student to do it accomplish such a feat was to sell herselfexploit her own beauty, and even then, she hadwould have to be exceptionally beautiful.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to do it without anyextraordinarily attractive. Without such an advantage, or the benefit of influential connections. Trying to raise, the task was virtually insurmountable. The notion of securing two hundred thousand in sponsorship for free was without offering anything in return was, in his mind, nothing but a pipe dream!
more than a fanciful daydream.Sharon was also aware that raising two hundred thousand in sponsorship, too, was an almost impossible task, but cognizant of the near-impossibility of the task at hand. Yet, she had already agreedcommitted herself to the challenge, and there was no turning back.
""Don't worryroom for retreat."Do not fret, Sharon. ," Eric interjected with a generous offer. "It's justmerely two hundred thousand in sponsorship, right? I'll helpcorrect? I will assist you solve it,"" Eric said generously.
""in resolving this matter.""What? You?""?" Luis sneered, not believing that retorted with a derisive sneer, his disbelief palpable. "I can't discern if you're boasting or simply overestimating your abilities. But if you can indeed raise two hundred thousand in sponsorship, I swear I'll eat my own words!"Luis had already formed a judgment of Eric based on his unassuming appearance. He found it inconceivable that a seemingly impoverished young man could do it. ""I amass such a substantial amount in sponsorship."Is it that you don't know if you're bragging or overestimating yourself, but if youbelieve I can raise the two hundred thousand in sponsorship? Would you care to wager on it?" Eric proposed, a playful smile tugging at his lips.Intrigued, Luis queried, "What would be the stakes?""You've just stated that if I manage to secure the sponsorship for Sharon, you would eat your own words, correct? Well, if I succeed, you'll have to live stream yourself doing just that on the school forum. How does that sound?" Eric countered, a smirk playing on his face."Broadcast myself eating my words on the forum?" The rotund young man standing behind Eric couldn't suppress his laughter. He marveled at Eric's audacity and cunning, eagerly anticipating the outcome. Upon hearing Eric's audacious proposition, Luis's countenance underwent a swift transformation. Had Eric truly suggested such a repugnant wager? However, Luis quickly reassured himself. How could he possibly lose? It was utterly unthinkable!Thus, Luis responded, "Very well, I accept your wager. But what happens if you fail to deliver?""If I fail, I'll eat shit!""
Luis had already judged Eric as a poor boy based on his appearance, so he didn't believe that a poor boy could raise withdraw from school immediately, or you can determine my fate," Eric replied nonchalantly."Agreed! Remember, it's you who proposed this wager!" Luis accepted without hesitation, confident of his impending victory.Sharon, upon hearing their exchange, was visibly distressed. "Eric! No! You mustn't wager with him!" In Sharon's perspective, there was no conceivable way they could secure a sponsorship of two hundred thousand in sponsorship.
""Don't you believe that I can raise two hundred thousand in sponsorship? I dare you to bet with me?"" Eric smiled playfully.
""What do you want to bet?"" Luis asked, curious.
""You just said that if I can raise two hundred thousand in sponsorship for Sharon, you would eat shit, right? Well, if I succeed, you’ll have to live stream yourself eating shit on the school forum. How about that?"" Eric said with a smirk.
""Live stream myself eating shit on the forum?""
The chubby guy standing behind Eric couldn’t help but cover his mouth and laugh. He thought to himself that Eric was truly ruthless to come up with such a clever tactic. The chubby guy was definitely looking forward to it.
After hearing Eric’s proposal, Luis’s face immediately changed. Did he really suggest such a disgusting bet?
But then Luis thought, could he possibly lose? It was simply impossible!
So, Luis said, ""Alright, I can take the bet, but what if you can’t complete it?""
""If I can’t complete it, I’ll drop out immediately, or you can decide what to do with me,"" Eric said casually.
""All right! That’s what you said, and I’m taking you up on that bet!"" Luis agreed right away.
In Luis’s eyes, this bet was definitely a sure win!
Upon hearing these words, Sharon appeared extremely anxious.
""Eric! No! Don’t make this bet with him!""
In Sharon’s opinion, there was no way she and Eric could possibly secure a sponsorship of two hundred thousand.. By betting against Luis, wasn’t he just asking for trouble?
accepting Luis's challenge, wasn't Eric simply courting disaster?Eric turned to look at Sharon and gave, offering her a confidentreassuring smile.
At thisthat moment, Luis spoke again, ""interjected, "By the way, there’sthere's a time limit for gettingsecuring the sponsorship. I’m asking you to secure it withinYou have three days, and the sponsoring company must have a market value of over one hundred million US dollars. SmallSmaller companies are not worthy of sponsoring our esteemed school!""
!"Luis added these two harshstringent conditions naturallynonchalantly, aiming to further increase the difficulty and ensuresolidify his certainimpending victory in this bet.
""What? ."Three days? And itthe sponsorship must be a sponsorship come from a company with a market value of over one hundred million US dollars? Luis, you… you're clearly justdeliberately making things difficult!""this impossible!" Sharon stompedprotested, stamping her foot in anger.
frustration.Having beenserved in the External Liaison Department for so longa considerable period, Sharon had never heard ofencountered such bizarre requirementsabsurd prerequisites for gettingsecuring a sponsorship.
It was already extremely difficultchallenging enough to secure any sponsorship, let alone specifically requiring a sponsoring from a company with a market value of overexceeding one hundred million US dollars.
"""Sharon, I amas the Head of the External Liaison Department in the Student Union., I makeset the rules! Understand?"". Do you understand?" Luis smirked inretorted, a sinister manner.
Ericsmirk etched on his face.Eric gently pulled Sharon behind him, and while his. His lips curled slightly,into a slight smile as he uttered a single sentence, ""All right"Very well! I promise!""accept your terms!"
