Chapter 64: Chapter 62: Noble Gentleman Among the Clouds, Graceful and Distinguished

After Xu Lin finished his speech, he returned backstage amidst everyone’s shock.

"Junior, you were amazing just now!"

"Yeah, so handsome, especially impressive!"

The older female students were all surprised, and some senior male students who were initially not convinced also gave Xu Lin a thumbs up.

Xu Lin remained composed.

Ning Yuhuan blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "You were outstanding just now!"

"You’re too kind!"

Xu Lin was very calm.

"I need to go do my hosting duties now!"

After Ning Yuhuan said that, she went outside to the podium, and Xu Lin didn’t leave immediately but waited for Ning Yuhuan to return.

She came back quickly, and Xu Lin opened his friend’s QR code.

"Senior, let’s add each other as friends!"

For most people, asking for contact details involves a bunch of tactics and lines, basically a whole mess.

But for someone like Xu Lin, it’s not necessary, as his previous excellent speech laid a sufficient groundwork.

Ning Yuhuan nodded and scanned the code, successfully adding him as a friend.

"See you, senior."

After getting her contact, Xu Lin turned around and waved goodbye.

At the same time, the system notified him that the task was complete.

And it was beyond Xu Lin’s expectations.

[Task: Shine at the opening ceremony.]

[Task Progress: Completed (Convinced 2166 people)]

[Evaluation: Extremely Excellent!]

[Congratulations on receiving rewards: Fixed Skill - Great Orator, Random Item - I Love Truth Serum (one bottle), Random Passive Buff - Unique Male Scent.]

"Male scent?"

"There’s such a buff?"

Xu Lin muttered to check the details.

[Great Orator: You will possess strong leadership ability (persuasiveness), an eloquent (fluent and convincing) speech ability, and a strong personal charisma in speeches! (Note: can be compared to the detail of the little mustache!)]

Sometimes the system isn’t very serious, but Xu Lin is used to it.

[I Love Truth Serum: Just one drop will make a person strip all their secrets, even the ones from eighteen generations back.]

[Note: Physical item automatically stored in the system space. You can retrieve it at any time by thinking about it.]

[Unique Male Scent Buff: This buff will make your body automatically emit a special fragrance that women find mesmerizing. (Note: Other men won’t be able to smell it.)]

Out of curiosity, Xu Lin brought his nose close to his shoulder and sniffed, and indeed detected a special fragrance.

This scent, Xu Lin couldn’t quite describe, but it was quite pleasant; however, the idea of a man emitting a fragrance seemed odd to him.

Thankfully, other men can’t smell it.

Xu Lin didn’t want to attract attention from any specific male groups.

It’s worth noting that this fragrance seems to linger only within a 15-centimeter radius around Xu Lin’s body; beyond this range, it isn’t detectable.

[Character: Xu Lin]

[Wealth: 488,115.44 yuan.]

[Reputation: None.]

[Status: None.]

[Abilities: Divine Penmanship, Singing Mastery, Driving Mastery, Orator.]

[Physical Items: I Love Truth Serum.]

[Overall Evaluation: Starting to have some substance!]

Xu Lin glanced at the panel, then mentally closed it. Before long, he returned to his class section.

Shang Wanjun was still there.

A gentle morning breeze swept through, rustling Shang Wanjun’s long dress and hair, giving her a unique, elegant beauty that seemed like a poetic painting of earthly wonders, leaving many boys momentarily transfixed.

The wind is truly magical; it’s invisible and intangible, you can’t catch it or hold it, but sometimes it can enhance the beauty of a person.

The feeling was unique.

Many boys were mesmerized, and perhaps one day, some years later, during a windy moment, they would recall this scene with a sense of nostalgia.

When Shang Wanjun saw Xu Lin returning, her eyes twinkled, and she smiled slightly, saying, "A noble young gentleman among the clouds, with a jade-like physique gracing the autumn!"

See, she’s a literary girl; she opens her mouth with a poem.

Xu Lin truly hasn’t read much, but he knows these two lines.

The meaning is: this young man has both a noble and elegant demeanor and an ethereal presence.

It’s high praise for a young man.

Xu Lin smiled and said, "You’re the one with the culture, teacher!"

Shang Wanjun laughed and said, "You did really well just now!"

"Xu Lin, you’re awesome!"

The boys were more straightforward, not having read much, just shouted something like "wow" and "so cool".

Xie Zhengrong gave Xu Lin a thumbs up, then several other boys also gave him thumbs up.

Xu Lin: "Basic operation, no need to overreact."

Rong Xiyi also said, "Xu Lin, amazing!"

"Do you even need to say?"

"Narcissist!"

Rong Xiyi didn’t want to deal with Xu Lin anymore, thinking he was annoying.

On the other hand, Xu Lin had just added Ning Yuhuan’s contact, and now that Shang Wanjun was here, he figured he’d do it as well.

Getting the number of a beautiful woman, of course, you’d seize the opportunity.

So, Xu Lin said, "Teacher, let’s add each other on WeChat!"

Xu Lin added Shang Wanjun on QQ last night, and she accepted.

But as everyone knows, it’s just a work account. With the economics department in the School of Economics and Trade, with hundreds of people, everyone adds that account, even if not now, eventually they will, since there will always be things that need the counselor’s assistance, like asking for leave, or any kind of miscellaneous stuff, as counselors often handle such things, though Shang Wanjun seems to be just an intern and might not stay long.

Going back to the point, Xu Lin wanted her personal number!

"Oh."

Shang Wanjun nodded slightly and added Xu Lin’s private number.

Shang Wanjun really likes ancient styles, and her profile picture is in a classical style as well.

Nickname: Pillow Poetry.

Status: Old books from the Plum City, ancient ink from Lanting, a faint charm of autumn breeze.

Xu Lin thought, she truly is cultured.

Speaking of which, he had indeed seen these lines before because Yu Xinyan had read them. They come from Qin Guan’s "Wang Hai Chao" from the Song Dynasty, expressing the idea: Can I also leave my name in history like Mei Fu and Wang Xizhi?

He wasn’t sure who Mei Fu was, but Wang Xizhi is very famous. Anyone who has been to middle school would know who he is.

The opening ceremony ended soon, though for most people it was quite dull.

"Xu Lin, many girls are asking for your contact information now!"

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Rong Xiyi sent Xu Lin a message.

Xu Lin: "If they’re not at your level of beauty, I wouldn’t pay attention!"

Rong Xiyi: "Why does that sound strange to me?"

"Not at all, I’m just saying I like beautiful women. Look, I’m complimenting you as a beautiful woman, aren’t you happy?"

"Many people compliment me on my looks."

Rong Xiyi replied, "Being happy is not necessarily the case."

"Excuse me, are you from Economics Class One?"

At that moment, two girls appeared outside the dorm, who were also quite pretty.

And inside the dorm, only Rong Xiyi was present, as Li Sinan and the others hadn’t returned yet.

"Yes."

Rong Xiyi nodded.

"Do you have Xu Lin’s contact information?"

One of the girls asked.

"I do."

Rong Xiyi replied.

Girl: "Could you share Xu Lin’s contact information with us?"

Another girl: "Can you?"

"No way!"

What nonsense and flamboyant women?

Go away!

Rong Xiyi closed the dorm room door, returned to her chair, and watched the video of Xu Lin’s speech she had just taken.

Admittedly, she thought Xu Lin delivered a great speech.

"Your freshman speech performance was really good!"

Rong Xiyi typed, ready to send.

But after thinking about it, she deleted it and didn’t send it.

Because she felt Xu Lin would reply: Do you even need to say?

He was really quite annoying!
