Chapter 305: Another Year’s Freshman Enrollment Day

September 1st, the day for new students to enroll as scheduled. Starting from around 7 AM, there was a constant stream of people at the entrance of Linchuan University. Parents and students from all over the country carried their luggage and entered the campus under the blazing sun, looking particularly spectacular.

Of course, besides these new students and their parents, there was another group of people who were even more excited – the single male upperclassmen who really wanted to find a girlfriend.

These guys had been holding it in for a long time, just hoping to take a glance during this time to see if there were any fresh, dewy female freshmen arriving in their major.

If not, then I’ll see if there are any fresh, dewy female freshmen arriving in other majors.

Especially those girls who come to register all alone and helpless, helping them carry luggage, adding them on QQ and such, although the methods are a bit conventional, they’re really effective.

Take Ren Ziqiang for example, he got out of bed early in the morning, dressed up like he was going on a blind date, planning to head straight to the school gate after breakfast, under the pretext of helping the School of Finance welcome new students.

Of course, Ren Ziqiang definitely wouldn’t go alone, so before leaving he dragged the whole dorm along.

Cao Guangyu had a girlfriend, but that didn’t stop him from appreciating beauty; Zhou Chao wasn’t that desperate to find a girlfriend, but that didn’t stop him from appreciating legs; as for Jiang Qin, he was just used to waking up early, so he came to join in the fun and see if any of the new female students had particularly good-looking feet.

“Bro Jiang, did you drop some money? Why do you keep walking with your head down and looking left and right?”

“No, my neck is stiff, just a bit uncomfortable.”

Jiang Qin said lightly, completely like a righteous gentleman detached from base interests.

Arriving at the school gate and finding the new student reception station for the School of Finance, the F4 of Room 302 found that the tent was already full of people.

The student council of the School of Finance was all present, led by the president Zhu Feng, managing the work of new student check-in and campus card distribution.

Zhu Feng was a senior this year and about to step down, this was the last large-scale group activity she would participate in, so she appeared particularly serious.

Seeing Jiang Qin arrive, Zhu Feng raised her hand and greeted him, “Boss Jiang is busy with tens of thousands of things every day, yet still has the interest to join in the excitement of new student enrollment?”

“Well I had nothing else to do, so I came to see if there are any outstanding talents among this batch of new students to recruit into our Room 208.”

“Then what are you looking at the ground for?”

“Actually, you can tell from a person’s walking posture whether they are fit for great responsibility, whether they walk steadily, if their steps are neat, this is all knowledge. Oh, this female freshman seems not bad.”

Just then, Jiang Qin saw a girl wearing a short dress walking over gracefully, her beautiful legs white and well-proportioned, wearing crystal sandals with a slight heel, her delicate little feet painted with pink nail polish.

Boss Jiang seemed to be inexplicably poked, making a hissing sound.

“Stop looking, that’s our school’s new teaching assistant, she definitely won’t join your 208.” Zhu Feng said in a timely manner.

Jiang Qin widened his eyes, “A female teacher? Seems even more interesting.”

“?????”

Just as they were talking, there was suddenly a grunt from in front of the check-in area. Jiang Qin turned his head and saw Ren Ziqiang squeezing out of the crowd like a human cargo truck, carrying two pieces of luggage on his back, followed by a pretty female freshman and a tall male freshman.

From their clothes and accessories, these two people seemed to be a couple. The red suitcase Ren Ziqiang was carrying was the girl’s, and the black one was the boy’s.

Cao Guangyu and Zhou Chao followed behind, grinning like idiots.

“What’s the situation?”

“Old Ren carefully selected a female freshman he liked and went over insisting on carrying her luggage. The girl didn’t refuse and handed her suitcase to Old Ren.”

Jiang Qin glanced at Ren Ziqiang’s hunched figure, “Isn’t that great?”

“What’s so great about it!”

Cao Guangyu laughed so much his eyebrows were dancing, “After the girl handed over her suitcase, she immediately called out ‘Baby come quick, there’s a kind senior here who wants to help us carry luggage!'”

Jiang Qin hissed, “Did Ren Ziqiang destroy the temple of the Old Man Under the Moon in his past life?”

“Don’t know, but let’s go ahead first, we’ll interview Old Ren about his feelings later.”

Cao Guangyu and Zhou Chao said this and immediately followed, simply too shameless to watch.

Jiang Qin thought back and felt that at the beginning of school last year, although Old Cao liked to act cool, his heart didn’t seem to be this dirty. He didn’t expect that after a year, everyone had achieved progress and growth.

“Jiang Qin, I’m about to step down.” Zhu Feng suddenly spoke.

Jiang Qin came back to his senses, “The next president is Ma Jiangming?”

“Yes, Ma Jiangming will be leading the team from now on. But I still want to ask you, are you interested in joining the student council?”

For an outgoing student council president to suddenly ask a sophomore if they want to join the student council is actually quite unreasonable, unless she wanted Jiang Qin to take a position, not simply to recruit him.

After Ma Jiangming takes over as president, the vice president position will be vacant, to be filled by one of the six department heads, then one of the department head positions will be empty.

This position is usually held by a sophomore, because they still have a year to be trained, and after a year, a presidential candidate may emerge.

The golden flowers of Financial Class 3 were also there at this time, the one leading the team to help was Jiang Tian. Hearing Zhu Feng say this, she suddenly felt a bit dazed, as if her thoughts had returned to last summer.

At that time, the military training was about to end and the hundred-team recruitment event was held. She asked Jiang Qin if he wanted to go to the student council interview.

[Forget it, I’m not capable enough. What if I get elected as the student council president, I can’t handle it.]

This was what Jiang Qin said at the time.

Even though Jiang Tian already had some interest in Jiang Qin at that time, she couldn’t help but feel this remark seemed a bit like showing off. She never expected that a year later, these words seemed about to come true.

“Forget it, a year has passed and I haven’t made the slightest progress, I still lack the necessary abilities.”

“But you are Linchuan University’s first ever Study Star and a young Linchuan entrepreneur, how are you still not capable enough?”

“It’s precisely because these things consumed too much of my energy that I have no way to contribute to the school. But our class monitor Jiang Tian is excellent, for class meals, trips, and team building activities, she always arranges everything clearly for me each time.”

Jiang Tian was handing out mineral water on the side, and froze for a moment upon hearing this. Looking up, she found Zhu Feng eyeing her, “Senior, is there something?”

Zhu Feng pursed the corner of her mouth, “Our transition meeting is about to begin, you can write a speech and try to run for the deputy head of the External Relations Department.”

“Okay senior.”

Jiang Tian glanced at Jiang Qin, knowing that she was already being shielded.

Jiang Qin didn’t express any more opinions after that, retreating under the tent and standing together with the golden flowers of Financial Class 3.

He never noticed before, but Song Qingqing’s feet were quite elegant, painted with light blue nail polish, looking particularly lively and cute.

But among the few of them, the one with the best-looking feet was still Jian Chun, fair and petite, smooth like jade, with a slight blush, like plump, delectable red cherries.

Seeing Jiang Qin staring at her feet, Jian Chun’s cheeks reddened slightly. She couldn’t help shrinking back, but only for a moment before mustering her courage to step forward again. Biting her red lips, her eyes turned watery as her legs involuntarily clenched together.

Zhuang Chen was standing nearby and felt very irritated seeing this scene. He had the feeling that the girl he had liked for over a decade was being stripped naked by someone else, making him furious.

But he couldn’t say anything. Was he supposed to tell Jiang Qin, you’re not allowed to look at Jian Chun’s feet? Everyone present would definitely think he was a pervert.

“Bro, a new shop opened on the pedestrian street and the decor is pretty nice. But it’s strange, I seemed to taste the flavor of my mom’s cooking there,” Song Qingqing suddenly said, her tone a bit whiny.

Jiang Qin snapped out of it and glanced at her. “What shop?”

“Yang Ji. They mainly serve lamb soup, stir-fries, dumplings, braised chicken and such. The taste is quite good, but their dumplings are too similar to the ones my mom makes.”

“Oh right, I forgot to tell you. Yang Ji is the restaurant I invested in. The shop you have a stake in is that one. It was originally a local brand in Jizhou and now plans to open up the Linchuan market.”

Hearing this, everyone in the freshman welcome tent turned to look over, a hint of envy and admiration in their eyes.

They all knew Jiang Qin was in the internet business and had single-handedly created Zhihu and Pintuan. But no one imagined he had so many other ventures under his belt.

If that was the case, the previous rumor was very likely true. Perhaps Xitian also belonged to Boss Jiang. If so, that would be incredible. Supposedly, this milk tea brand had already blossomed across the city, occupying over 40% of Linchuan’s market.

Last semester, a professor from the School of Finance even used this brand as a case study in his lecture. Its marketing tactics were said to be ingenious, on par with Pintuan.

In that case, both Pintuan and Xitian were the handiwork of Jiang Qin.

“Hey, have you guys not tried the taste of our Yang Ji yet? How about this, let’s all go try it together at noon.”

Zhu Feng couldn’t help turning her head. “Can our student council members come along too?”

“When I say everyone, I mean all of you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers erupted from the tent. Come the noon break, a huge group followed Jiang Qin to the pedestrian street.

The taste at Yang Ji was indeed very good, especially the ancestral lamb soup and the dumpling recipe contributed by Song Qingqing, leaving everyone in charge of recruiting new students fully satisfied.

Before leaving, Jiang Qin even gave each of them a bag that looked like a gift.

“What is this?”

“Just eating isn’t enough. Take some with you, no need to be polite with me.”

Zhu Feng paused, thinking to herself, are there really such warmly hospitable people in this world? Not only a free meal but gifts too? She reached out and opened the bag, only to find it full of stack after stack of flyers.

The flyers were exquisitely printed with photos of their main dishes and the Yang Ji logo.

Seeing this, Zhu Feng understood. Jiang Qin was having them help pass out flyers while welcoming the freshmen, using this opportunity to let all the new students know there was such a restaurant on the pedestrian street.

And he claimed to have no ability!?

Damn, too modest Boss Jiang. If you became the student council president of the School of Finance, wouldn’t our student council be turned into Linchuan University’s number one evil organization under your leadership?
