Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

She's not a big star, but she's got quite the ambition. This Sichuan girl actually wants to hire a stylist, which is really a bit unnecessary.

"Forget it, you can do women's clothes yourself. When it comes to men's clothes, just do whatever you want. After all, no one cares whether you look good in men's clothes or not."

"If you really need it, give the class monitor and Xiaoyue a raise, and they can help you cover this business," Lin Mo said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, the Sichuan girl shook her head repeatedly: "The two of them? Let's forget about it. I still think it's fine for me to do it myself."

The two sat in the classroom, which was originally packed with people, but now only the two of them remained. Perhaps in two months, even the two of them would no longer belong to this classroom or this school.

Before, when they entered the classroom and sat down, with someone supervising them, the two of them would even whisper to each other or secretly play on their phones. But now, with no one supervising them, they neither played on their phones nor spoke again.

For a moment, the classroom was quiet. Although the two had not yet graduated, since the start of last year's semester, a feeling unique to the graduation season had been in everyone's hearts. However, it was better back then, as more than half of the students had returned.

But after two months, most of them left. By the time school started this year, the class had only a dozen or so students, including a few of them.

Some are waiting for spring recruitment, some are preparing for postgraduate entrance exams, and very few people don't have to worry about what will happen after graduation.

When he arrived today, only he and Chuanmei remained.

The two waited until a little after nine o'clock when their counselor, Jiang Tao, pushed open the door and entered.

"Guide" *2
Upon seeing this, Lin Mo and Chuan Mei stood up and greeted each other.

"Hey, you're all here today, especially Lin Mo. You've changed so much in just one year. If you hadn't been away from home so much, I wouldn't have recognized you when you came back," Director Jiang joked.

Indeed, he has changed quite a bit in the past six months. But Director Jiang thought he started changing after his internship last year, since his skin had already become fairer after the start of the semester last year. But even so, his demeanor changes every day.

Lin Mo himself and those who frequently met with him were unaware of it, but Director Jiang, who did not meet with him often, clearly sensed it.

"Hey, I just changed my clothes. You look great lately, Director. You seem to be in a good mood," Lin Mo said with a smile.

In response, Director Jiang waved his hand and laughed, "Don't worry about you mischievous kids, it's hard for you not to be in a good mood, hahaha."

The job of a university counselor is relatively easy, since they are not professional teachers. Now that the students have all gone to do internships, it is naturally easier for her. She doesn't even have to come to class regularly.

"Director, do you think I've become more handsome too?" The Sichuan girl flipped her hair and said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Director Jiang laughed and said, "You? Next time, let Li Shiya come, and I'll give you a proper compliment!"

Sichuan girl:.
Unfortunately, although the Sichuan girl has feminine features and is not bad-looking, she is still too ordinary compared to Li Shiya.

Of course, although Director Jiang said that, he was very satisfied with the two students in his class, especially Li Chuan.

With nearly ten million followers, she's quite a celebrity. She feels proud to say that someone in her class is so successful.

As for Lin Mo, she only knew that he looked better and his temperament had changed a lot. As for anything else, she didn't know anything, not even what kind of job Lin Mo did now.

Of course, if the Sichuan girl knew what her advisor was thinking, she would definitely say that he's now living off a woman.

"Alright, I've told you everything that happened today. That's right, your applications have been approved. Come with me to the small auditorium in a bit, and you'll all be there together," Director Jiang said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo and Chuan Mei realized that they weren't the only ones joining the Party this time.

It's understandable, after all, you can't hold a separate ceremony just for the two of them.

After saying that, Director Jiang led the two to the school's small auditorium. As soon as they entered, Lin Mo saw the elderly Professor Mu and Principal Tang, who were sitting in the front row, surrounded by several other school leaders.

The small auditorium was quite crowded, including some student council members. To be honest, first- and second-year students are very enthusiastic about this kind of thing, and some even get extra credits for it.

Lin Mo and Chuan Mei arrived at a place where there were six other people besides them, two men and four women, making a total of eight people, half men and half women.

Even in South Korea, this wouldn't be considered a valid point; there's simply no issue of discrimination against men or women.

Lin Mo and Chuan Mei walked over without greeting the others, as they weren't familiar with them. However, they did exchange a glance. Indeed, although they didn't have any connection with these six people, it didn't mean they didn't know any of them.

One of the tall girls was the school beauty. They forgot her name, but they remembered her face. After all, there were more boys than girls in the school, and anyone who was even slightly good-looking would be remembered.

As for why she had this opportunity, neither of them knew. The only thing they knew was that this woman was their senior, still in school, and undoubtedly a graduate student.

There was also a girl with glasses who was a bit chubby. Although she was of average appearance, she was a top student. When they were sophomores, she participated in some kind of competition and won an award, which was the kind of thing that brought honor to the school.

The second one was a very formal-looking boy in a suit. He and Chuanmei both knew him; he was Cui Hang, the student council president of their year. Like the school beauty, he was a prominent figure in their year, although the current student council president had long since retired.

As for the other three, Lin Mo and his companion had no recollection of them at all. Who knows which hidden master they came from? In any case, everyone has their own unique methods.

Lin Mo was recognized for his act of bravery and even received a certificate. Chuan Mei is a well-known figure at the school, and CCTV has reposted her work more than once.

The school has gained more exposure in the last couple of days, boosting search volume for Jiangning City. If all goes as expected, the number of tourists visiting the old town of Jiangning should increase significantly in the coming period, which will also help stimulate the city's economy.

There are countless examples online of people or events becoming viral and boosting the local economy; it's not unusual. In fact, local cultural and tourism departments would love for more people or events like this to appear in their areas, so they can promote themselves.

Soon, it was almost time, and the school leaders began to speak. Principal Tang didn't give a long speech; he just said a few simple words, but it was very formal.

Immediately, the school's Party branch secretary came over, put Party badges on the eight of them, and then the eight of them went on stage to take an oath. The oath-taker was none other than Cui Hang, the former student union president.

Everyone took it very seriously, and after taking the oath, they announced their names.

"The one who takes the oath—Lin Mo!"

"The one who takes the oath—Li Chuan!"

I don't know why, but in these kinds of situations, with the badge on my chest, I always feel a sense of uprightness and a strange feeling of being moved.

Subsequently, Cui Hang was asked to speak as a representative. There were not many people, just a few teachers, a few students, a few school leaders, and a few student council members who acted as staff.

Lin Mo and Chuan Mei were very easy to manage; they simply followed the group the whole time. At the end, there was a free discussion where everyone had to say a few words.

Lin Mo and Chuan Mei spoke in a standard and unremarkable manner, but they didn't make any mistakes either. The ceremony was completed in a short time, lasting just over an hour. In addition to being students, they gained a new identity: becoming members of the Communist Party.

Professor Mu and his advisor Jiang Tao were happier than Lin Mo and Chuan Mei, the two parties involved, and they applauded the most enthusiastically.

After the ceremony, the girl was surrounded by students. After all, the video she posted yesterday had only reached its peak today, making her a celebrity at the school.

Professor Mu patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "Xiao Lin, not bad. In the future, you must not tarnish the Party badge on your chest!"

"Yes, teacher!" Lin Mo replied with a smile.

As for counselor Jiang Tao, she was happily taking pictures with her phone. After all, in all the years she had been a counselor, very few of her students had gotten the opportunity to join the Party. She never expected that two of them would do so this year.

After they came out, they walked along the main road of the school. The fragrance of the soil after the rain, the trees that had sprouted new buds, the students coming and going on campus, and the two shining badges made them smile at each other.

“Old Mo, do you think it’s a bit inappropriate for me to wear this while driving my Cadillac? After all, this car looks like it’s driven by someone who frequents foot massage parlors, which doesn’t fit my image!” Chuanmei suddenly said.

Hearing this, Lin Mo rolled his eyes and spat, "You really are fickle. What kind of persona do you have? Yesterday, the official account even came to comment on your post. And now you're already complaining about them, even though you'll be doing car ads again soon?"
Why didn't you say anything when you were making money off them before?

In response, the Sichuan girl waved her hand and said, "That's different. I'm a person with status now, a successor to socialism, okay!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo subtly took a step back: "So... what do you want to say!"

Sichuan girl: "I want to buy a Hongqi car, what do you think!"
Lin Mo:
"Go buy an old man's rechargeable lamp, seriously, that thing is perfect for you. Nobody will stop you from going to a foot massage parlor. You're really something else!"
