"Actually, I also want to know what Wayne thinks of me." In front of everyone, His Highness the Prince was surprisingly frank.
Richard accepted the challenge so simply that Wayne naturally couldn't back down.
"If you want to talk about shortcomings, of course there are some..." He was a little hesitant as to how far he should go.
If the words are merciless, it will inevitably make people unhappy; but if the content is indifferent, it will easily give people a perfunctory feeling.
"But as His Royal Highness, it's up to you to evaluate me first." Wayne's voice changed.
The worst he could do was to adapt to what Richard said later.
After a few words of dialogue, the two agreed on their opinions, and Richard stepped onto the stage again.
The currently registered members of the Lily Club are not the only ones who appeared at the campaign meeting today.
As the most important group organization with the longest heritage in Qingxi Academy, the Lily Club will also invite several important guests to attend the ceremony during internal elections such as the election. The invitation status of these people does not come from a certain teacher or leader in the academy, but only means that they represent the seniors of the Lily Club who have graduated.
This special setting plays a greater role on the symbolic level than on many practical significances.
——The seniors who have started to develop their ambitions from here will come with invitations from the outgoing old president to witness the birth of the new president through an open and fair vote by the members.
At this moment, every eye was focused on Richard.
After a moment of pause, he said: "Unconsciously, I have known Wayne for a long time."
Being stared at carefully by his focused eyes, Wayne felt... a little numb for no reason.
Isn’t it going to turn into a touching drama of heartfelt exchanges later? I can't handle this.
"During the time we became friends, it seemed that no matter what kind of request I made, as long as Vern agreed, he would do it very neatly." Looking at Vern, Richard smiled. laugh.
"Sometimes, I secretly use Wayne as a goal to motivate myself. Frankly speaking, he is indeed a good mentor and helpful friend to me."
Wayne was a little embarrassed by his praise.
I obviously haven't done anything on purpose... No, isn't this a typical routine of praising first and then criticizing?
Realizing this, Wayne immediately became vigilant.
Sure enough, Richard's conversation quickly changed.
"But - that doesn't mean he has no shortcomings at all."
"In my eyes, he has a very obvious shortcoming." He said, "But on the other hand, this shortcoming makes me envious."
Everyone was immediately curious about him, and everyone was eagerly waiting for the next words.
"That's... he's too much of his own way, or in other words, he's too 'selfish'." Richard revealed the answer.
"Wayne doesn't seem to care at all about how others view him behind his back, nor does he care about the identities of the people he associates with." When he said these words, Richard's expression was subtle and helpless.
"Because everyone usually shows respect subconsciously when talking to me, so when I first got along with Wayne, I had a very strange feeling... and then as I learned more about Wayne , the feeling becomes stronger.”
Hey, don't describe it so weirdly!
"It was as if there was no difference whether he was a prince, a king, or a commoner standing in front of him." Richard described his experience in detail. "Being friends with him is just a matter of Richard and Wayne becoming friends. It has nothing to do with any other influencing factors such as status."
"To be more precise, he seems to be genuinely indifferent to everything behind it. He only cares about what he thinks is important."
"At that time, I felt very surprised. How could there be such a person in the world?"
Wayne was embarrassed to hear this.
Brother, if you have such an idea, you must have misunderstood me.
At the same time, he was also secretly glad that he was the one who caused Richard to have this misunderstanding and not Chris, otherwise he would probably become an [Interesting Woman] special attack...
"But this kind of him makes me feel at ease." Richard continued, "He can ignore those speculations or discussions, associate with whomever he likes, and accept followers if he doesn't like them. "
It was obvious that Richard cared about these things.
Rather than stating Wayne's shortcomings, it's more like enumerating his enviable advantages.
However, personal judgments will inevitably be biased. What may be shortcomings in the eyes of some people may be advantages in the eyes of others. Such an answer cannot be regarded as Richard's digression.
Ge Li, who sat back on the other side, wrinkled his nose and glanced at Wayne from time to time, looking very disgusted.
One glance showed that she strongly disagreed with Richard's opinion.
The people in the activity room who were waiting to watch the show just now couldn't help but nod in agreement one by one.
In everyone's eyes, Wayne's character has indeed always felt like this, quite unique. It's just that he has many friends around him, and usually no one pays special attention to such small details.
After Richard finished his speech, Wayne fist-bumped with him as a sign of friendship before taking the stage.
Not only did Ge Li feel dissatisfied, but even Wayne also believed that what he just said could not be considered a shortcoming at all.
In this way, I won't be able to criticize him too much later.
"First of all, thank you classmate Richard for your comments just now." Wayne thanked everyone for their love.
"Well... I think I'm being unfair to say that I'm completely indifferent to those things."
He clarified easily.
"Maybe I don't care that much, but that's because I have the support of many people behind me." He must emphasize this point.
"It is precisely because I know that I have the care of many people that I have the confidence to stand alone."
In other words, this is called having confidence.
In fact, he was still a little ashamed.
"However, this kind of subconsciousness does sometimes bring bad feelings to some people. I will pay more attention to improvement in the future."
After humbly summing up, it was finally my turn to evaluate Richard.
Before getting to the point, Wayne raised his head and looked around the activity room.
Chrissy, Song Li, Lawrence, Raphael... everyone looked at him intently.
"Richard is a perfect prince in everyone's eyes. It may be difficult to find any shortcomings in him."
However, it does exist.
