CHAPTER 162: CHAPTER 162: SWORD DANCE

Before Zhou Kai could think further, a member rushed in anxiously, "President, Vice President, something bad has happened, the Student Council President is looking for you, along with the Director of Education and the Counselor."

Zhou Kai was so anxious that cold sweat was dripping down, while Jia Pengxuan looked ashen.

The two arrived on the third floor of the activity building.

Zhao Qingyue and several teachers were there, with the E Newspaper laid on the table.

Facing the sharp gazes of the crowd, Jia Pengxuan had lost his previous arrogance and disdain in front of Lin Qin, replaced by sheer panic and unease.

Zhao Qingyue had barely questioned him twice before Jia Pengxuan pointed the finger at Li Xiaomei.

"Teacher, President, it was Li Xiaomei who complained to me about being bullied by the freshmen, and also said the freshmen hit people in public. I thought campus violence had a bad influence, so I helped her write a report."

Jia Pengxuan made himself sound as innocent as possible.

Zhao Qingyue snorted coldly, "This matter has already alarmed the school leaders, the school didn’t even punish those six freshmen, so what gave you the right to criticize them without conducting a thorough investigation, who authorized you?

Jia Pengxuan, being the Vice President of the news club shows you’re not a fool, if there’s no personal agenda involved in this, I won’t believe it. I reckon you thought they were easy to bully but didn’t expect to hit a hard wall.

Now, the situation is that you targeted them first and made an untrue report, seriously affecting their reputation. They powerfully refuted you with evidence and are even willing to confront you publicly!

If you have integrity and believe you did nothing wrong, then confront them publicly. Otherwise, apologize to them in front of the whole school, admit your mistakes, and resign from the news club."

Jia Pengxuan was thoroughly panicked, crying and begging for forgiveness, "Teacher, President, I really know I’m wrong. I’ll apologize to them, seek their forgiveness, and ask you to give me another chance."

Zhao Qingyue remained silent, giving the authority to several teachers.

At the same time, Li Xiaomei, who had just been discharged from the hospital, was called out by Director Ye during class and scolded in the teaching building.

She and Jia Pengxuan together apologized to Du Juanhua and Lin Qin in front of the entire school, and made a written reflection, basically losing both face and standing.

Li Xiaomei was also forced to leave the Classical Poetry Society.

The 301 dormitory turned out to have a beautiful counterattack this time. Meanwhile, the E Society’s reputation soared, its first newspaper issue became wildly popular, and Lin Qin, this freshman, made a name for himself in the Teachers College.

For a whole week, everyone didn’t nap at noon but stayed in the activity room busy printing newspapers.

With just six people overwhelmed, Lin Qin had to recruit more from outside.

The announcement had barely been put up before a bunch of people came to register, all freshmen.

Lin Qin and Ge Qiuyue were responsible for the interviews, and finally recruited ten new members, allowing the six of them to finally have relief.

Lin Qin achieved a milestone victory, growing more energetic as she busily prepared for the second issue of the newspaper.

In a blink of an eye, it was late September, during the rehearsal for the National Day Gala.

When Bai Junjun came out holding a pipa, wearing a long traditional dress for ladies, everyone was amazed.

Zhou Xue, excited, loudly said, "Just wait, I’ll borrow a general costume for you to play the pipa, and I’ll perform a sword dance for you."

"Really?" Bai Junjun was beyond excited.

Lin Qin clapped her hands vigorously, "Great, great! I want to see, I want to see!"

Ge Qiuyue teased with a smile, "Xiao Xue can also perform a sword dance? Take care not to hurt yourself."

When everyone moved to the playground and witnessed Zhou Xue wielding a stick performing martial arts moves, they were all stunned, taking a long time to recover.

Zhang Hong murmured, "No wonder Xiao Xue could single-handedly stop three or four women that day, turns out she’s a martial arts expert!"

"Great Hero, I humbly bow to you!" Bai Junjun knelt on one knee holding the pipa.

Zhou Xue stepped forward, lifting Bai Junjun’s chin, "Beauties, please rise, how about reciprocating my affections?"

Everyone got goosebumps as they woke from their dreams.

Not to mention, the pipa performance with added sword dance was indeed much more exciting.

So Bai Junjun and Zhou Xue discussed and made a last-minute program change.

On the day of the performance.

Lin Qin specifically invited her family and Chen Wenjun to the school.

It was Chen Wenjun’s first time at college, finding everything novel, but fortunately, he was someone who had experienced many ups and downs, he was curious but not at all timid.

After settling Lin Yi and Huang Yuezhen, Lin Qin took Chen Wenjun and the kids to meet her roommates.

Except for Ge Qiuyue, the others all called out in unison: "Brother-in-law!"

Chen Wenjun smiled gently, exchanged a few words with everyone while holding his younger son, and then went to sit with the kids.

Zhang Hong whispered to Ge Qiuyue, "Sister Ge, Sister Qin’s partner is also family-oriented like your partner, one look and you know he’s a good man. They really look a match standing together."

Ge Qiuyue nodded in deep agreement, whispering, "I just saw it happen, Qin Mei’s younger son wanted her to hold him, her partner said mommy couldn’t hold him and directly picked the child up. You all should find such family-oriented and considerate men in future relationships, don’t just focus on appearances, the world is not short of good-looking empty shells."

Zhang Hong and Du Juanhua both nodded, remembering Ge Qiuyue’s words.

Especially Du Juanhua, she was indeed deceived by Wang Xinyuan’s appearance and did not expect such a handsome man would lack responsibility and stir up so much unnecessary trouble.

Listening to her roommates’ discussions, Lin Qin’s mouth subtly curved upwards, playfully scolding Chen Wenjun, "Listen, they’re all praising you!"

Chen Wenjun smiled gently, holding their chubby younger son tightly, "That’s because of you they’re praising me. If you get along well with them, you could invite them to our house on weekends, I’m busy usually and don’t have much time for you."

Lin Qin blushed slightly, "You are busy, I am busy too. We just established the E Society, they are all part of the club, and we have to work on the newspaper over the weekends, no time. Let’s see if we can manage during winter or summer break."

Chen Wenjun agreed just as the performance began, and everyone’s attention was drawn to the stage.

In her past life, Lin Qin never had the opportunity to enjoy such a performance, only seeing them on TV; being in such a setting felt completely different.

Especially Bai Junjun and Zhou Xue’s pipa and sword dance, it was simply mind-blowing.

Even after the performance ended, everyone was still engrossed, followed by thunderous applause echoing through the audience.

Lin Qin exclaimed excitedly, "We must throw a celebration for Junjun and Xiaoxue when we get back, it was amazing!"

Ge Qiuyue and the three others nodded simultaneously.

After watching the performance, it was already ten o’clock at night.

The weather was now cooling with autumn here.

Chen Wenjun and Lin Yi drove the diesel tricycle to take everyone back.

Lin Qin said goodbye to her roommates.

"Tomorrow marks the start of the National Day holiday, I have to go home, what are your plans? Is anyone else going back?"

Ge Qiuyue nodded, "I have a bus early in the morning tomorrow, going back to see my partner and kids."

Bai Junjun, "I’m from An City, definitely going home, probably also hanging out!"

Zhou Xue, "I also plan to go home."

Leaving Zhang Hong and Du Juanhua.
