Chapter 312: Female Charmer’s Attempt at Flirting

Standing at attention is an inherently tedious task. Maintaining focus is impossible; wandering eyes are the norm.

Amidst the gazes of the new students, two stunningly beautiful girls sat down and took turns chatting with Jiang Qin. He responded with two very casual nods, but the girls weren’t offended. Instead, they offered him the drinks they were holding.

A cup of milk tea, a can of cola. They waited eagerly for him to choose.

Witnessing this scene, Guan Wensi and Qi Qi felt quite perplexed. Why were two campus belle-level girls “fawning over” an ordinary senior? Was it his physique?

And there were two of them. It was simply incomprehensible!

Jiang Tian and Song Qingqing were also quite pretty, but at most above-average. It wouldn’t be odd for them to be charmed by a sweet-talking guy.

But the two who came now were different. Both girls were the type to stun people at first glance, each with their own unique style. They were memorable beauties who normally had no shortage of suitors. They couldn’t possibly be naive little bunnies.

Especially in this scorching heat, when girls who cared about their complexion were reluctant to even leave the dorm, they had come to the sun-baked field to find an “ordinary” guy. It was truly puzzling.

Guan Wensi stared intently at Jiang Qin for a moment, starting to doubt her own sense of aesthetics.

Were my eyes deceiving me? Or did you have to be up close to see his handsomeness?

On the other side, Qi Qi was also fixated on the scene, her eyes flickering between light and dark. She seemed to regain a bit of interest in this man.

This was a herd mentality, a kind of sheep effect. When high-quality girls all thought a guy was good, even if you weren’t initially interested in him, you couldn’t help but grow curious.

Qi Qi felt that after military training ended, she could get to know him. Making friends didn’t cost money anyway.

“Damn, too pretentious. No, I have to change my approach.”

Seeing this, Cao Guangyu felt his scalp go numb. Cursing, he took off the sunglasses he had been using to appear “calm and collected”.

He felt that Jiang Qin, that dog, had already taken the calm and collected path to its limit. Latecomers had no way to surpass him.

Coming to the field and ignoring the underclassmen, as if he had no interest at all, then turning around to sit in the shade by himself. Suddenly, two beauties came and sat beside him, eagerly offering him water, instantly attracting the curious stares of all the underclassmen on the field.

Wasn’t this the thrill he himself wanted to experience?

He had worn out his sunglasses without getting that thrill, but imagining himself in Jiang Qin’s place, he was so thrilled he nearly ascended to the heavens. It was simply maddening.

Zhang Guangfa’s expression was also very uncomfortable. Damn, Jiang Qin was hogging all the attention on the field. He had just gone to great lengths to say how ordinary Jiang Qin was, but now it seemed like he was the one lying.

What would the underclassmen think of him? A petty person slandering others behind their backs?

Didn’t that damn Jiang Qin already have Feng Nanshu? What the hell was he doing sauntering around the field every day?

Once again, he deeply understood Zhuang Chen’s resentment towards Jiang Qin, as well as his cowardly refusal to act on it.

But just as the underclassmen were staring wide-eyed, trying to figure out what made Jiang Qin so attractive, another group of people ran onto the field.

Some carried video cameras, some wore work passes. One person held a parasol, and the last one walked the slowest because he was carrying a large guzheng in his arms.

When they reached the flagpole, the guzheng was placed facing it. The girl to Jiang Qin’s left stood up, rolled up her sleeves to reveal her fair arms, and sat behind the guzheng, instantly striking a pose.

The other girl came to the front of the guzheng, right in front of the camera, and assumed the starting position of an ethnic dance.

Seeing this, the confused faces on the field were no longer confused, and Guan Wensi let out a soft sigh of relief, thinking it was a good thing her sense of aesthetics was normal after all.

“So they weren’t here specifically for him. The school sent them to shoot a promotional video. That startled me. I thought there was something wrong with my taste!”

Qi Qi calmly nodded. “It seems Senior Jiang is in charge of this shoot. Otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have access to that caliber of beautiful women. But this does indicate he may have some status in the student council.”

Guan Wensi had a sudden realization. “I heard Senior Jiang Tian was appointed the deputy director of the External Relations Department.”

“Mm, maybe that’s why Senior Jiang Tian sees him as her idol. If that’s the case, everything makes sense now.”

Qi Qi felt she had seen through the truth and couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly. She suddenly felt it might be nice to have a senior brother in the student council.

University teachers, unlike high school teachers, were not obligated to be responsible for everything related to students. Most student affairs still had to be handled by the student council. Having an acquaintance there would definitely have benefits, if not for big matters, then at least for small ones.

In that case, she would go say hello later and add him on QQ or something.

Qi Qi had always been very confident in her looks and skills. As long as she wanted to get to know a guy, there was no such thing as not being able to. So at this moment, Jiang Qin was like prey in her sights.

Moreover, she felt that this prey might be easier to catch than the ones she had encountered before.

Just as Qi Qi secretly made her decision, the sound of a guzheng suddenly rang out across the field like a babbling brook. The girl standing in front began to dance gracefully, doing a leg extension and wing-spreading turn, revealing her fair wrist.

At the same time, two video cameras began to move according to their blocking. One focused on the girl playing the guzheng, while the other focused on the girl performing the ethnic dance.

Jiang Qin just stood on the side watching, the cola in his hand already half gone.

He didn’t come to the field to look at underclassmen, nor did he specifically come to be a love guru for Ren Ziqiang. If he had that kind of time, wouldn’t it be better to go give the little rich girl a foot massage?

So why did he come to the field? It was actually to work on promoting Zhihu.

The night before last, around 7:30 pm, a post searching for the most beautiful woman in military training was suddenly reposted on Peking University’s forum, resulting in an unprecedented response that led to a surge in Zhihu’s registered users in the capital.

This accident provided Jiang Qin with a new idea. He thought that if a few random photos could be so popular, why not produce something even more impressive, slap a logo on it, and spread it to freeload off the traffic of other websites?

So, Jiang Qin arranged for today’s shoot of “Military Training Goddess Talent Showcase”.

The beautiful girl playing the guzheng was actually Linchuan University’s 3rd campus belle, Fang Xuan, while the one performing the ethnic dance was the 2nd campus belle, Liu Yiyi.

They were both people who had modeled for Zhihu. After receiving Jiang Qin’s call, they came immediately. They had no choice. He paid a lot.

As for the military training uniforms, Jiang Qin had gotten them through Zhu Feng. After all, it was currently the military training season. Having them play the guzheng and dance in school uniforms was to allow Zhihu’s topic content to be closely linked to the reality of universities.

After a while, Jiang Qin’s cola was finished, and the entire shoot was also wrapping up. The instructor leading the squad blew the whistle, announcing the end of training.

Guan Wensi picked up her water bottle and looked at Qi Qi, only to find that Qi Qi was already walking towards Jiang Qin on the opposite side, her movements light and lively, the very image of a girl who could make your heart flutter at a glance.

“Hello, senior.”

“?”

Jiang Qin turned his head and saw an unfamiliar, average-looking girl. He handed her the empty soda can. “Thanks, underclassman.”

There weren’t many trash cans on Linchuan University’s field, with the closest one being by the main entrance. Jiang Qin figured the girls would have to leave the field eventually anyway, so he asked them to toss the can on their way out.

Having been a boss for over a year, Jiang Qin often thought like a leader. Though a bit abrupt, he was still polite, even saying thanks.

“?”

Qi Qi glanced at the empty can in her hand, a flash of surprise in her eyes.

She realized her flirtatious, youthful smile seemed to have failed. This Jiang-senior only looked at her for less than a second before averting his gaze, as if she were just an ordinary girl.

What was that about?

Qi Qi looked at the soda can again and instantly understood he wanted her to throw away his trash for him. Her face filled with disbelief.

This was his idea of sweet talk? How emotionally dense could he be?

As a female charmer, Qi Qi never wasted much time on any one guy, let alone a mere student council senior who wasn’t worth trying to flirt with again.

So she held the can, flipped her hair, turned around and left without looking back.

Jiang Qin didn’t think much of it. He waved for the Room 208 crew to pack up and head back. But before he could leave, he saw Ren Ziqiang walking over, looking dejected.

“Bro Jiang, Wang Linlin refused to have dinner with me.”

“Why?”

Ren Ziqiang pursed his lips. “She said she hasn’t washed her face and asked to reschedule. That excuse was too dismissive, a critical hit.”

Jiang Qin gave him an exasperated look. “Are you dumb? That’s clearly a good sign.”

“?”

“Think about it. She just finished training, all sweaty, and is worried she doesn’t look good. The fact that she won’t even see you without washing her face means she really cares about her image in front of you. It means you’ve got a chance.”

Ren Ziqiang thought for a while but still shook his head. “Bro Jiang, don’t try to comfort me. I feel like her rejection was even more half-hearted than Pan Xiu’s.”

Jiang Qin patted his shoulder. “Have some confidence. You’re not short and you’re decent-looking. Maybe not idol material, but at least handsome enough.”

“Really?”

“Of course. Otherwise, how could you be roommates with a heartthrob like me, right?”

“????”
