Chapter 59: Chapter 58 Youthful Performance, A Hundred Ways of Self-Introduction (Please Follow)

Some were shy, like Yi Jing, Xu Ziqiang, and Li Yuan himself. Of course, there were also social butterflies who were very eager to showcase themselves on this stage. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Those who dared to step onto the stage first were true warriors.

Zhou Tianyu and another female student suddenly rose to their feet at the same time, raising their hands toward Qi Siyu.

Zhou Tianyu squinted slightly. The female student who stood up was named Xiang Qin Yanqiu, a very beautiful girl who had been busy helping him with class affairs these past few days.

"Ms. Qi, ladies first. Let Student Xiang Qin go first!"

Xiang Qin Yanqiu looked at Zhou Tianyu in surprise. She also harbored the idea of becoming the class monitor and hadn’t expected him to yield this opportunity to her.

"Then let’s invite Student Xiang Qin Yanqiu to the stage to present herself to her classmates."

Xiang Qin Yanqiu walked gracefully to the podium, took the microphone from Instructor Qi Siyu, and strode confidently to the center. A smile touched her lips as she began to speak to the whole class.

"I always dreamed that one day I could stand on a university podium and introduce myself to all of you. I’m sure many of you have never heard of my surname before."

Xiang Qin Yanqiu walked to the blackboard and wrote four large characters: "Xiang Qin Yanqiu."

"This is my name. My compound surname is Xiang Qin. My mother told me I was born in autumn, on a day when the sky was filled with red leaves and the forests were dyed in color, a day of unparalleled beauty. There’s also a line from the *Complete Tang Poems*: ’A single leaf falls in the front court, and thoughts of sorrow for autumn suddenly arise...’

"Standing here isn’t just about introducing myself; it’s also about hoping that my fellow students, who have come from all corners of the country, will give me a chance to become friends with you.

"Everyone, I would like to run for the position of our class’s acting monitor. I look forward to your support."

Xiang Qin Yanqiu’s introduction was perfect. With her looks, which were among the best in the class, coupled with her poised and articulate demeanor, she had crafted a flawless self-presentation, starting with her name and ending with a call for friendship.

Li Yuan applauded along with the other students, his gaze lingering on Xiang Qin Yanqiu. Although her looks and figure fell somewhat short compared to Bai Weixi and Zhong Tingyue, she possessed a unique charm.

If I had to score her, she’d be around an 85. She’s the prettiest girl I’ve seen in our class.

Seeing the warm reception Xiang Qin Yanqiu’s presentation received, Zhou Tianyu couldn’t help but grow nervous. In his mind, becoming the first monitor of Computer Science Class One was a sure thing. If this girl, Xiang Qin Yanqiu, suddenly came out of nowhere and snatched the position, it would be a huge loss of face. His roommates—Li Yuan, Liu Jia, and the others—all thought he had it in the bag. If he lost the position now, he probably wouldn’t be able to hold his head high for the next four years of university.

Qi Siyu waited for the applause to die down before looking meaningfully at Zhou Tianyu. "Next, let’s welcome Zhou Tianyu to the stage to present himself."

Meeting Qi Siyu’s gaze, Liu Jia couldn’t help but mutter to Li Yuan, "Yuan, I get the feeling that Tianyu and Ms. Qi have a thing..."

Li Yuan was speechless. "Don’t be so crude," he retorted. "Ms. Qi and Tianyu clearly each have two legs. You make them sound disabled."

"Damn, Yuan, you’re on another level," Liu Jia said, at a loss for words.

After stepping onto the stage, Zhou Tianyu first bowed to the students below. He then took the microphone, walked to the center of the podium, and began his performance.

"Destiny brings together those who are a thousand miles apart; without it, even people who meet face-to-face remain strangers. It’s a great honor to be here at Xia University with all of you today. You are all the pride of the heavens, gathered from every corner of the country, and your literary skills far surpass mine. With a student like Xiang Qin setting such a high bar, I won’t embarrass myself by trying to compete on that front.

"But since I’m already up here, not showing off a talent would be like missing the last train—there won’t be another chance. To avoid any regrets, allow me to introduce myself with a little rap."

At the time, rap had not yet become popular in Huaxia, and most of the students looked on in confusion. But on stage, Zhou Tianyu was already adjusting his clothes. He unbuttoned his shirt, rolled up his pant legs, and launched into his rap performance.

"Do you know my name? From Su Province I came! I love to laugh, love joy, love simplicity, love a lively scene... YO! YO!

"Love myself, love you all, that’s just me! Whether you like it or not, I’ll keep stumbling along my own path without losing my style. Be myself always!"

After his exaggerated rap, Zhou Tianyu even threw in some street dance moves. The rest of the class rewarded him with enthusiastic applause. A few of the girls, in particular, stared at him with shining eyes and blushing faces.

Hearing the thunderous applause, Zhou Tianyu let out a sigh of relief. Full of confidence, he continued, "Everyone, I just made a fool of myself up here. In this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... we should all, you know, ’good good study, day day up.’

"Also, I have to apologize to Student Xiang Qin, but I also want to serve everyone to the best of my ability, so I’m going to compete for the acting monitor position as well.

"To all my incredibly handsome brothers and all you beautiful, vibrant ladies, please take that precious vote in your hands and bury me in it! I love you guys!"

With that, Zhou Tianyu boldly blew a kiss to the class, then turned and wrote his name on the blackboard.

Liu Jia spoke sourly, "Yuan, guys, that Tianyu really has some tricks up his sleeve. His rap was pretty interesting. Damn, that guy was holding out on us."

Li Yuan nodded, a wave of pressure washing over him. These university classmates are all so talented and love to show off... how am I supposed to present myself?

Qi Siyu clapped, glancing at Zhou Tianyu with a soft chuckle she covered with her hand. "Tianyu’s self-introduction just now was very interesting. Other students can certainly learn from it. Now, let’s have the next student come to the stage to introduce themselves."

At first, after students with outgoing personalities like Xiang Qin Yanqiu, Zhou Tianyu, and Wang Jierong had performed, the more introverted students in the audience grew shy. Then, someone started a new trend, and it turned into an orderly procession, with students going up one by one according to their seating order.

These more introverted students didn’t showcase talents like Zhou Tianyu and the others. Most just gave a simple introduction: their name, hometown, hobbies, and interests.

Li Yuan’s gaze remained fixed on the girl in the corner, eagerly awaiting her self-introduction. He was also dying to know what she really looked like. Was she, as he suspected, a heaven-sent beauty? Her side profile was so stunning it gave him the feeling of first love, just like when he had first seen Bai Weixi.

Soon, as student after student took their turn, it was finally her time to go on stage.

Li Yuan stared intently, not wanting to miss a single detail, trying to get a clear look at her face.

The girl seemed very shy, completely lacking the lively and vivacious aura of the other students. After she went up on stage, she kept her head bowed low, so low it was almost buried in her chest.

She’s quite tall, probably over 1.7 meters. She’s dressed conservatively, but I can tell her skin is very fair, and her hair quality is good. From her profile, it looks like she isn’t wearing any makeup at all...

Li Yuan waited for the girl’s self-introduction.
