CHAPTER 51: CHAPTER 51: LIU LONGSHENG’S PRETENTIOUS DAILY LIFE

Xu Lin had just changed his clothes when Xie Zhengrong and Hu Donghai, who went out shopping, returned.

Meanwhile, Xu Lin continued to work on his own things.

Xu Lin thought that since he was going to give a speech as the freshman representative tomorrow, his speech couldn’t be vague.

As for speaking in front of thousands of people, Xu Lin wasn’t fazed. He had been brave since childhood, so he didn’t feel nervous at all.

If it were an ordinary person, thinking about standing before thousands in the morning would make one restless.

Xu Lin was quite calm.

At this time, Xu Lin opened the note-taking app on his phone and started typing.

Since he had to deliver a speech, a speech draft was a must.

Moreover, Xu Lin’s speech needed to be inspiring, using powerful words, or he wouldn’t command the stage.

Therefore, several essential conditions were necessary for this speech.

First, Xu Lin must have presence and aura.

He has the Dragon among Men buff, so this condition is already met.

Second, the speech must be strong and forceful.

Xu Lin felt he could do this as well, as long as he paid attention.

Third, the speech draft must be good and use powerful words.

The second and third points are connected; anyone who has seriously attended language classes knows that poems with inherent momentum are also powerful when recited; at this time, just pay attention to your tone, pace, and intonation.

For example: Northern scenery, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow...

For example: Thirty thousand miles of rivers flowing east into the sea, five-thousand-height peaks reach for the heavens.

For example: The storm rises with clouds flying high, imposing throughout the realm as I return home.

So, Xu Lin then seriously started pondering his speech draft.

Xu Lin’s Divine Penmanship was at work; as soon as he started pondering, inspiration flowed, and his Flourishing Brush worked wonders.

In no time, he had crafted over sixteen hundred words, Xu Lin using powerful words, quoting allusions, and with brilliant rhetoric.

"Not bad!"

Xu Lin was very satisfied with his work.

After finishing the speech draft, Xu Lin spent another half hour memorizing it.

Since Xu Lin wrote it himself, he was familiar with it, so memorizing the over sixteen hundred words was quite easy.

"I’ll review it again right before going on stage!"

The time was now past six.

The sky wasn’t dark yet; at this time in early September, the sun hadn’t fully set.

Hu Dong and Xie Zhengrong had finished showering.

Liu Longsheng hadn’t returned yet; no one knew where he had gone.

But he was active in the group now.

It turned out he was out cruising in his E300 and had just posted a photo.

Cars have an irresistible allure to guys, even more than to girls.

Especially since the E300 is a dream for many, expensive cars are out of reach.

But the E300 seems to be the pinnacle for ordinary people, which makes it dream-worthy.

"Awesome, Liu Longsheng, must feel amazing driving an E300 at eighteen!"

"Jealous, 666!"

"Liu Longsheng, can you give me a ride?"

Many people chimed in, mostly guys

Liu Longsheng replied: "Haha, not convenient at the moment!"

Also, Liu Longsheng posted a photo from the passenger side, showing a pair of legs in black stockings.

Liu Longsheng: "Ahem, sorry, I’ve got someone with me for now."

"Awesome, black stockings, is she your girlfriend?"

"Liu Longsheng is awesome!"

"Already have a girlfriend so soon?"

"Guo Zihao, what are you saying? Isn’t it normal for Liu Longsheng to have a girlfriend?"

Everyone chattered continuously.

Xu Lin was snacking on sunflower seeds bought by Chi Linyue while watching the chat, and he also commented: "Black stockings are awesome!"

But looking at those legs in the passenger seat, Xu Lin estimated she might be around 1.60 meters tall, with average-sized legs that weren’t particularly shaped well, and only the black stockings added some mystery; Xu Lin felt unimpressed.

He preferred fair-skinned, long legs over 1.70 meters tall.

Criteria: fair-skinned, long, big.

At this time, Liu Longsheng added: "The passenger isn’t my girlfriend, just a senior who I gave a lift; don’t misunderstand everyone!"

The black stockings in the passenger seat weren’t attractive, and the makeup was a bit heavy; once in the car, Liu Longsheng smelled strong perfume, which he didn’t like at all. But to him, it was all about showboating for the class group, nothing more.

He couldn’t go a day without showing off; especially during the freshman phase, the persona had to be right.

Liu Longsheng @Xu Lin: "Xu Lin, where’s your Panamera?"

Liu Longsheng had been provoked by Xu Lin a couple of times before, feeling frustrated, but cruising around in his E300 had lifted his spirits, especially since several senior girls actively added him on WeChat while he was cruising around campus.

Though not pretty, at least someone paid attention to him, right?

So Liu Longsheng’s mood improved again. In the meantime, he had an upperclassman wearing a tight black skirt come up, which resulted in a photo with the copilot’s seat in the class group chat.

Although this upperclassman wasn’t very pretty, Liu Longsheng felt rather proud showing off in the class group.

Moreover, he thought about it—Xu Lin’s family had a Panamera, a car worth over a million yuan. His family should be able to afford one too.

Liu Longsheng planned to persuade his dad later to buy him a Panamera or a high-end Cayenne.

Thinking this way, Liu Longsheng felt much better at the thought that he could also drive a Panamera.

At this point, seeing Xu Lin speak in the group chat, Liu Longsheng couldn’t help but @ him.

Xu Lin: "No way, it’s my sister’s. I don’t even have a car yet."

Liu Longsheng: "It’s your sister’s but that means it’s practically your car, right?"

Xu Lin: "Not really. Besides, my sister only has this one car. I’ll wait until I have money; I also want to buy an E300."

Xu Lin continued munching on sunflower seeds.

Hearing Xu Lin say that his sister only had one car, Liu Longsheng felt suddenly uplifted, a sense of balance restored. Confidence surged from inside out, making him look at Xu Lin more amiably.

Gu Yan @Liu Longsheng: "Liu Longsheng, remember our class meeting at 7:30. It’s the first meeting of the semester, very important!"

Liu Longsheng: "I know, senior. I’m getting ready to head back."

Then, Liu Longsheng sent a message in the dorm group: "Hey everyone, let’s have a gathering tonight, a mixer with a girls’ dormitory."

Xie Zhengrong: "What mixer? Which girls’ dormitory?"

Hu Donghai: "Tell us more."

In Xu Lin’s class, there were twenty-six girls, with seven four-person dorms already, including one mixed dorm with students from Economics Class 2, making for eight dorms strictly speaking.

That’s why Xie Zhengrong asked which dormitory.

Liu Longsheng replied, "Li Sinan’s dorm. I’ve set it up!"

Xie Zhengrong: "That Li Sinan, huh? She’s probably the prettiest girl in our class, right?"

Hu Donghai: "Of course it’s her!"

Xu Lin knew this Li Sinan. She had shared many selfies in the group before. Xu Lin had seen one, a full-body shot in a school uniform, taken in front of a mirror.

She was probably around 1.7 meters tall, quite tall among the girls. She had a good figure, a pretty face, and fair skin.

Liu Longsheng: "Bros, I’m going to pursue Li Sinan!"

Xie Zhengrong: "Awesome!"

Hu Donghai: "Good luck!"

Xu Lin: "Liu Longsheng, you rock, you got this!"

Actually, when Xu Lin had just joined the class group, Li Sinan had already added him, though they never interacted, just classmate-level friendship.

But starting this afternoon, Li Sinan sent quite a few messages, being pretty proactive.

However, Xu Lin didn’t respond.

To Xu Lin, someone like Li Sinan wasn’t much of a catch. Strictly speaking, Li Sinan was a beauty, but not as pretty as his mother, Ms. Ren.

Xu Lin wouldn’t lower the Xu Family’s standard of beauty.

Meanwhile...

Liu Longsheng sent Li Sinan a message: "Li Sinan, after tonight’s class meeting, our two dorms are having a mixer. I’m treating, remember!"

Li Sinan: "Okay!"

Liu Longsheng: "Grin.jpg x3"

Li Sinan didn’t reply and then checked Xu Lin’s QQ account.

Li Sinan: "Hello, are you there? Xu Lin, our dorms are mixing with your dorm tonight, did you know?"

But Xu Lin didn’t respond.

The messages she sent earlier were also without reply.

Li Sinan felt a bit frustrated.

At this time, all four girls in the dorm were present.

Li Sinan looked at the bed by the bathroom.

"Rong Xiyan, are you going to the mixer tonight? With Liu Longsheng’s dorm."

Li Sinan didn’t mention Xu Lin’s dorm, afraid that Rong Xiyan would go too.

Rong Xiyan had only arrived at school this afternoon. Before her arrival, Li Sinan thought she was the prettiest girl in the class.

But with Rong Xiyan’s arrival, it was the first time Li Sinan saw someone so stunning and radiant in real life, demolishing her confidence in her looks.

Rong Xiyan’s three-hundred-sixty-degree flawless beauty seemed capable of overwhelming any girl’s appearance.

"I’m not going."

Rong Xiyan stood up from her chair, having played games for over an hour, she just wanted to stretch.

Indeed, she stretched.

Wearing short sleeves and wide-leg cargo pants, her figure looked exceptional at that moment, enough to captivate the three other girls in the dorm.

Especially the moment when Rong Xiyan raised her arms and arched her back. Her clothes stretched up, revealing her devilishly slender waist and the stunning symbols of womanhood as she straightened.

In a room where most were sizes A, A+, B, B+, even C was rare. To show a gap, you’d have to squeeze a bit.

But Rong Xiyan...

Was she a D or an E?

She seemed to jiggle just from stretching!
