Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 856 Was he advertising?
"...During his time at school, he achieved outstanding results in the city's arts competition thanks to his excellent personal abilities. He was a top student and a key member of the arts community, leading his team to great success in innovation and entrepreneurship. He was optimistic and positive, actively spreading positive energy among his classmates and becoming a role model for many students..."

"Wow, that's awesome, Lu!" Fingel clapped his hands slowly and teased.

Seeing Bai Qingxia's barely suppressed laughter beside him, Lu Yuanqiu raised his hand to cover his forehead: "Forced praise, forced praise..."

Zhang Yang slapped his thigh: "Damn it, how come I didn't know Lu Yuanqiu was a top student?"

Xu Siyang peeked ahead and said, "Haha, how come you're not a top student anymore? At least you didn't fail any courses."

After the host finished introducing the student representatives, he put down his script, smiled, and looked at the crowd: "Did you all think I misread the script? First I introduced the partner companies, and then suddenly I started introducing the student representatives?"

Fingel shrugged and chuckled: "This guy's even learned to answer first, huh? Heh, yeah, yeah!"

There was only a small chorus of responses from the audience, indicating that some people were indeed curious. This was the first time that the otherwise dull celebration had a little interaction between the stage and the audience.

"Does everyone know Lu Yuanqiu?" The female host took a few steps to the side and asked curiously.

This time, quite a few students in the audience responded, "We know each other!!"

Cao Shuang, who was a troublemaker, stood up from his seat and shouted loudly, attracting the attention of Ruan Yueru's classmates.

Who is this guy? Which class is he in?

Ruan Yueru quickly reached out and pulled him to a seat.

Hearing the commotion around them, Liu Wangchun from the Business Administration department clicked his tongue twice, while Long Liandong from the Literature department took out his phone to record a video.

The female host shook her head regretfully: "But today, the general manager of Lu's Group's Zhucheng branch is also here. I heard that this general manager is both young and handsome. Should we invite the general manager to the stage first, or invite Mr. Lu to the stage first?"

It was supposed to be a serious occasion, so no one understood why the host was making jokes in such an unusual way. Interactions are normal, but was it appropriate to ask such a question? For a moment, no one responded, and even Chen Cheng and He Qianlan in the guest seats were a little confused.

Long Liandong had already started recording and held up her phone.

Xu Siyang turned to Liang Jingfeng and asked, "Your general manager is here?"

He was taken aback and noticed that Liang Jingfeng was still trembling.

"It can't be you, can it..." Xu Siyang stared at him in bewilderment.

After keeping everyone in suspense, the female host knew that probably no one could have guessed this unexpected result, so there wasn't much interaction from the audience. After all, she herself was quite surprised when she found out.

However, the higher-ups told her to do her best to liven up the atmosphere. It is indeed rare for a student to become the general manager of a large company while still in school. This time, through the media, she might be able to make the anniversary celebration go viral online and give Zhuhai University more attention.

The host stopped teasing and walked back to the center of the stage, announcing, "Next! Let's give a warm round of applause to invite the General Manager of Lu's Group, a partner company of Zhuhai University, to the stage!"

applause.

Lu Yuanqiu patted Bai Qingxia's hand, exhaled, and stood up from his seat.

Fingel, standing behind him, was startled and looked up in bewilderment.

The students behind him stopped clapping and focused their attention on Lu Yuanqiu's back.

The girls in front hadn't heard anything and were still clapping, but when Lu Yuanqiu walked forward, they all turned their heads and slowly stopped clapping.

Xu Siyang: "Huh?" On Fu Yimeng's side, Shi Ling, Chu Wenxuan, and many returning graduates stared wide-eyed.

Lu Yuanqiu had already reached the edge of the stage, waving normally as he climbed the steps.

This was the first time in such a grand occasion that the applause abruptly stopped, replaced by a flurry of discussion.

It would be fine if they didn't know Lu Yuanqiu, but the problem is that they all know Lu Yuanqiu.

What the hell are you talking about? So young, a general manager?
So, it seems like everyone at this school is either eating his girlfriend's food or his family's food?
In the guest seats, Chen Cheng and He Qianlan's expressions were incredibly interesting. He Qianlan was a mix of anger, laughter, and surprise, until she heard Chen Cheng suddenly add, "That leader does seem to have a family connection with the Lu Group..."

"So Lu Yuanqiu and Lu Douqing are siblings?!" He Qianlan turned her head in surprise.

Chen Cheng blinked: "Probably..."

Bai Qingxia's phone vibrated. She took it out and glanced at it, seeing question marks appearing in two group chats: the class group and the "Wedding Battle" group. In the "Wedding Battle" group chat, seeing so many question marks, Chen Fei, Wang Haoran, Gao Qiang, and others were still curiously asking what was going on, but no one explained it to the three of them.

Lu Yuanqiu walked to the podium where the flowers were placed, said "hello" twice into the microphone, and said to the crowd, "Everyone, please be quiet for a moment."

The scene fell silent.

So many people... This was Lu Yuanqiu's most direct feeling. He had never seen so many people at any performance or party.

I'm actually a little nervous about not lying.

Lu Yuanqiu gripped the microphone and gave an apologetic smile:
“I know that many students got to know me through various channels on campus, whether it was through bands, Xia Yiwanmian, Big Ben Milk Tea comics, promotional videos, or even the label of Bai Qingxia’s boyfriend.”

"Haha, although I may not have spoken to everyone, to you I am probably as familiar as an old friend who lives in the next dormitory. But today, you suddenly learn that this old friend has another identity."

He glanced towards his own class.

"Damn it..." Fingel cursed twice.

Lu Yuanqiu withdrew his gaze: "I apologize for keeping this from everyone. The Lu Group is indeed my family business. To express my apology, the public canteens of the four campuses will be open to all teachers and students of Zhuhai University for free for one week. Don't worry, President, I will cover the cost."

Lu Yuanqiu thought he was quite humorous, and most of his classmates cheered enthusiastically, but the third-year students didn't laugh at all; they were eerily silent, with only scattered applause.

What a cold bunch of people. Why don't they smile? Are they just naturally averse to smiling? Lu Yuanqiu thought to himself.

Bai Qingxia clapped her hands and silently turned her head. She saw that Fingel's expression was still frozen, as was Xu Siyang behind him. She then silently turned her head back.

You mustn't hit her after you hit Lu Yuanqiu.

Lu Yuanqiu paused, took out his speech manuscript from his pocket, and glanced at the audience below the podium: "To celebrate the centennial celebration of Zhuhai University, there is also a benefit provided by the Lu Group. The well-known Xia Yiwan Noodles will soon be available in the form of instant noodles at various sales points. Zhuhai University students can enjoy a 50% discount on Xia Yiwan Noodles at any sales point by presenting their Zhuhai University student ID card. This benefit is permanent."

The students were still cheering, but the third-year students were somewhat silent, and the applause was sparse.

"Is he advertising?" Chen Cheng couldn't help but complain.

He Qianlan covered her mouth and laughed.
