Before leaving the house, Han Lie made a special call to Xi Luting.
"Knight, co out for a al!"
"Get lost!"
Xi Luting exploded but kept her voice very low. She must have people around her, he figured.
"I feel like having so clay pot tofu soup or sothing. Are you really not coming?"
"Not going! Call less in the future."
Xi Luting abruptly hung up the phone. Beside her, Fang Feifei, holding back laughter, asked, "Another new suitor?"
"Yeah, quite annoying."
Fang Feifei’s eyes widened. "Annoying, and you still accept his clothes and watch?! Yu Yun told us all; that outfit is worth at least ten thousand!"
Xi Luting’s composure almost cracked. She retorted angrily, "What’s that got to do with you? Is it any of your business? Are you looking for a beating?"
Fang Feifei clung to Xi Luting’s arm, leaning limply against her. Blushing, she nodded, her voice as faint as a mosquito’s buzz, "Mmm~~~ I really like it when you beat ..."
Xi Luting’s mood instantly brightened.
I’ve got status!
She hugged Fang Feifei, pinching her earlobe. "You’re still the sweetest~~~"
My goodness, the classmates following behind and the alumni passing by in front all felt the cloying pink ambiance...
Nowadays, Xi Luting and Fang Feifei had beco quite famous within a small circle.
Especially Xi Luting. Her title "Queen" echoed throughout the lesbian scene, and girls would often try to strike up conversations with her.
There were countless candid photos taken of them too.
What a predicant!
Just as the two of them reached the second floor of the cafeteria, before they could even decide what to eat, a boy suddenly approached from the opposite direction.
With a touch of eagerness and a surprised expression, he greeted them.
"Ting Ting, long ti no see. How has work been recently? Are you tired?"
Xi Luting’s expression instantly turned cold. "Chairman Yu, please call by my full na. We’re not that familiar."
Fang Feifei also tightened her arm around Xi Luting, her face showing undisguised hostility.
Yu Xueqin was thoroughly rebuffed right from the start. His face stiffened slightly, but his reaction was still composed.
"Heh... that was presumptuous of . Um, would you like to join us for a al over there? We’re all colleagues from the student council. We just finished a eting discussing the preparations for the New Year’s Eve party, and everyone agrees you’d be perfect as the host."
Xi Luting was visibly tempted and glanced in the direction he indicated.
The various departnt heads and deputies imdiately waved at her. She smiled and waved back lightly, but the smile vanished the mont she turned to face Yu Xueqin again.
"No thanks, you all go ahead. We can discuss work matters during a eting."
Just as Xi Luting was about to excuse herself and leave, Tan Xuan approached her.
"Ting Ting, did you just finish class? Co quickly, we’ve only just ordered our food!"
Tan Xuan grabbed her arm, enthusiastically pulling her towards their table.
"Ting Ting, let tell you, it’s such a coincidence! We were just talking about you, and the next second, you appeared! Ha! It seems the role of host is destined to be yours... Shunzi, move to the other side, make room for Ting Ting!"
"Alright!"
A space was promptly made available right next to Tan Xuan, while Fang Feifei could only sit at the adjacent table, next to Wang Tianqing.
Xi Luting was guided to the seat by Tan Xuan and showed no sign of displeasure.
Tan Xuan, the head of the Cultural Activities Departnt, was a junior this year.
She had been dancing since elentary school and later learned piano and singing. She was the quintessential arts enthusiast, the kind of multi-talented individual central to cultural activities that you’d find in any high school.
Before this year, Tan Xuan had always been the undisputed host for events like the freshman welco party, the New Year’s Eve gala, and sports ets.
However, ever since the new sester began and Xi Luting joined the student council, Tan Xuan had strongly recomnded her as a key talent for the Cultural Activities Departnt to nurture, repeatedly declaring, "Only Xi Luting can take over from as host."
Xi Luting could afford to be dismissive of others, but not Tan Xuan.
The help Tan Xuan had given her was not only unstinting but also offered without any expectation of return—truly rare.
Well, since I’m here, I might as well go with the flow, she thought.
Xi Luting sat down composedly and greeted everyone one by one.
"Sister Xuan, Sister Tianqing, Sister Qin, this is my roommate, Fang Feifei."
She continued to ignore the boys at the opposite table, chatting only with the girls.
Tan Xuan, Wang Tianqing, and Yin Qin were all beauties—one a key mber of the Cultural Activities Departnt, another a publicity stalwart, and the third the public face of the External Relations Departnt.
In a humanities college of 8,000 students, the proportion of beauties was far higher than at 211 or 985 universities, yet even among all these beauties, these three stood out.
Add Xi Luting and Fang Feifei to the mix, and my goodness, it was a table full of exquisite flowers, each vying to outshine the others.
The girls chattered away animatedly, leaving the boys at the other table utterly srized.
The more Yu Xueqin watched, the more his heart itched with anticipation. He subtly signaled his underlings, who promptly started to drum up support for him.
"Junior Sister, Old Yu has extrely high hopes for this gala. With only a month left, the host is still undecided, and it’s making Old Yu lose his appetite and sleep..."
"Exactly! In fact, the Cultural Activities Departnt has already proposed several candidates. The younger students are also very enthusiastic, and we thought they were quite good, but Chairman Yu just feels sothing is missing."
"The mont I saw you, I finally understood what was missing!"
"Old Yu told us that students nowadays don’t really enjoy campus galas, so we need to make a stunning impression right from the start. The host has to be absolutely dazzling."
Where am I supposed to find soone ’absolutely dazzling’ for you? Isn’t Sister Xuanxuan stunning enough? one of them thought.
Old Yu just shook his head. "Xuanxuan’s strengths are her temperant and singing voice, but she still lacks a bit of impact."
