Chapter 241 Club Recruitment: I Really Don't Want to Stand Out

On the playground, the freshmen undergoing military training nearby were all called over and sat around.

For a moment, the place was crowded with people.

Just like Lin Xiangyu said, the music club is recruiting new members and preparing for a live performance.

Happiness can be very simple.

For the freshmen who have been undergoing military training for more than ten consecutive days, it's a blessing if they don't have to do extra training at night.

"Hello everyone, we are from the music club, and I am the club's president."

In the center of the playground stood a fair-skinned, beautiful girl in a short skirt, attracting the attention of many boys.

Gu Yifan's three roommates were no exception; their eyes lit up, and they let out a wolf howl.

After more than ten days of continuous military training, everyone was wearing military uniforms, so you couldn't tell whether the girls were pretty or not.

Suddenly, a beautiful senior in a JK skirt appears; who wouldn't be excited?

Gu Yifan: Making a fuss over nothing.

He thought the senior was pretty, but he thought she was just average-looking, not even as pretty as Xia Xingchen, Xinling's roommate.

"Young Master Gu, you're too full to understand the hunger of an empty stomach. These days, it's so rare to find a girl willing to show off her long legs," Lin Xiangyu said with great emotion, his eyes filled with longing.

Having been exposed to short videos from later generations, Gu Yifan looked on with disdain. What was this?

Every day, all sorts of beautiful women dance to please me.

What did I say?

Besides music clubs recruiting new members, other clubs such as drama clubs, crosstalk clubs, and dance clubs will also be recruiting new members and performing shows.

There were quite a few beautiful female students among them, which captivated the freshmen.

There were also some handsome guys dressed smartly who came on stage and performed a "Dandelion Promise," which caused a frenzy of screams from the girls.

Gu Yifan appeared nonchalant, using Xinling as cover while he played on his phone.

After Qin Yumo got drunk last time, she sent him an apology text message the next day, saying she would treat him to a meal to make amends next time. The two also added each other on QQ.

She's moving this weekend, and Gu Yifan doesn't know if he should go help her.

On the stage.

After the handsome male senior finished singing, he bowed gracefully and said, "Welcome to our music club, everyone."

Another burst of screams erupted from the girls; goodness, it sounded like a hundred ducks screaming.

Gu Yifan was disturbed, so she looked up and rolled her eyes at the male senior.

The kid even pretended to press his hands down, which seemed a bit annoying to the guys.

"Damn, this kid isn't even that handsome, not even as good-looking as me, yet he's making such a big splash." Lin Xiangyu fiddled with his hair, turned to Gu Yifan and the other two with a disgruntled expression, and said in a low voice.

If other boys said this, it might just be out of jealousy.

But who can blame him when he's Chen Xiao?

Gu Yifan nodded in agreement, "That's right, we haven't even talked to Yu Shuai yet."

“Hey Xiang Yu, how can you talk like that? You should say he’s not even as handsome as the guys in our 308 dorm,” Xie Xun chimed in.

Gu Yifan: Oh right, I forgot that Li Xian is sitting next to me.

Judging from this, their dorm room is indeed very good-looking.

Lin Xiangyu turned his head and asked Xinling, who was sitting next to Gu Yifan, "Xinling, what do you think?"

“My brother is the best looking.” Xinling said without thinking.

Well, Lin Xiangyu and the other two shrugged in unison; they knew Xinling would say that.

He's a brother complex guy! Definitely a brother complex guy!

So all the clubs have finished their performances.

"The senior students have all performed. Are there any students who would like to volunteer to come up and show off their talents?"

In the center of the playground, the female president of the music club took the microphone again and began to ask questions.

The surrounding freshmen immediately fell silent.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. You can even come up and sing a song together," the female club president continued with a smile. "If no one volunteers, the seniors will have to go down and recruit people."

As you can see, the female club president had a mischievous smile on her face, and even the second-year students from the surrounding clubs were somewhat excited.

Gu Yifan patted Lin Xiangyu on the shoulder and teased him, "It's time for you to make a comeback. Go for it, young man, show your charm."

Lin Xiangyu immediately waved his hand, "No, no, no, I was just saying, don't mess with me, Mr. Gu."

Guan Chao chuckled, "You're always lamenting that you don't have a chance to shine, but here you are, so why are you chickening out?"

Lin Xiangyu muttered angrily, "Damn it, if you're so good, you do it yourself! So many people are watching, you'll embarrass yourself terribly."

"If we're talking about the most handsome guy in our dorm, it has to be Little Gu." Xie Xun chimed in, patting Gu Yifan on the shoulder. "Little Gu, go up there and give them a shock, let them stop looking down on us freshmen."

Gu Yifan smiled but didn't say anything.

Conflicts between freshmen and sophomores are commonplace.

It's nothing more than sophomores becoming mothers-in-law after years of hard work; there will be a few who act arrogantly towards freshmen. Of course, it's laughable in the eyes of those who have been through it all—it's just starting school a year earlier. But undeniably, there are some so-called senior students who act like they own the place.

For example, during room checks, they nitpick and find fault even in the smallest details.

Gu Yifan heard from Lin Xiangyu that last Sunday, when he wasn't checking the dorms, Monkey's dorm was criticized.

The monkey was so angry that it almost got into a conflict with the student council members.

"I heard that every year after military training, the sophomores always organize some kind of freshman social event to prank the freshmen. Could this be the one?" Lin Xiangyu said to the three of them, remembering something.

"To hell with this social gathering, don't mess with me, or I'll teach them a lesson."

Xie Xun stubbornly insisted on his words.

Showing the true colors of Sichuan and Chongqing men, even when their wives are grabbing their ears, they still have to stand their ground and say, "It's not that I'm afraid of her, it's that I respect her!"

Seeing that the surrounding freshmen were just talking amongst themselves without making any further moves.

"Then the senior students will have to go down and 'invite' us freshmen to perform our talents."

After saying that, the dozen or so second-year students around him dispersed and walked into the freshman group.

"Damn it, they're really here to recruit people. Don't pick me, don't pick me!" Xie Xun cursed, but as soon as he saw several second-year students walking towards them, he immediately lowered his head.

"Don't worry, there are so many people, what are the odds of you being chosen?" Guan Chao comforted Xie Xun in a low voice.

Sure enough, most of the second-year students just stood on the periphery and randomly picked an unlucky one.

The freshmen around them who weren't selected all breathed a sigh of relief.

They laughed and pushed the unlucky guy who had been called out out.

The handsome senior, whom Lin Xiangyu scorned for his pretentious act, was still chatting with a freshman girl, looking completely unhurried.

"Damn it, you little bastard. You can't find a girlfriend in your sophomore year, so you come here to hook up with freshmen! Bah!"

Guan Chao, a virgin, was very dissatisfied to see the other party chatting and laughing with a group of girls.

Boys are generally territorial.

There aren't enough boys to go around for freshman girls; there are too many wolves and not enough meat. And then the sophomores start eyeing them too. Isn't that just awful?

At that moment, whether by chance or not, was...

The boy singing glanced in their direction.

Guan Chao stiffened his neck and stared back at the other person.

The other party's gaze merely swept over the three of them, without any intention of targeting them.

But soon, the boy singing stopped looking.

His eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly in their direction.

"That female student, please come and perform your talent."

"Who?"

Who is he referring to?

Upon hearing that it was a female classmate, Xie Xun and Lin Xiangyu began to search for who was so unlucky.

结果
"It's that girl who wasn't wearing a hat."

Didn't you wear a hat?

Lin Xiangyu and Xie Xun were taken aback and turned to look at Gu Yifan.

To be precise, she was looking at Xinling, who was standing next to Gu Yifan, without a hat, revealing her beautiful, jet-black hair.

After two weeks of intense sun exposure during military training, the girls tried various methods, including sun protection and moisturizing, but they still couldn't avoid getting tanned.

Cyndi did not participate in military training, but instead joined the 'medical camp', which was specifically for students like Cyndi who were unable to participate in military training due to health reasons.

There wasn't much to do; I just sat on a small stool under the shade of a tree, watching the military training, which counted as participating in the training.

So she didn't get tanned, and with her naturally fair skin and pure, beautiful face, she stood out from the crowd.

"Damn it, how dare he make a move on Xinling!" Xie Xun roared in fury.

Although Xinling only clung to Gu Yifan and didn't talk much to outsiders, she treated Gu Yifan's roommates quite well.

I'll bring them a bottle of water too.

Xie Xun jokingly called her the "younger sister they all protect" in the 308 boys' dormitory.

Now someone actually dares to make a move on this delicate 'little cabbage'.

Xinling was also at a loss. She didn't have any special talents, and besides, she was naturally shy and timid.

Cyndi waved her hand in refusal.

"It's okay, junior. You can even just introduce yourself. We're all classmates, let's get to know each other."

The boy singing gave an encouraging smile.

Seeing this, Xinling cast a pleading look at Gu Yifan.

"elder brother."

"..." Gu Yifan patted Xinling's shoulder, "I'll do it."

Gu Yifan wasn't very angry, which is normal.

If Lin Xiangyu and his group had that opportunity, they would definitely choose the pretty girls to go up.

This actually proves that Cyndi Wang is the most beautiful among all the young and beautiful girls.

Now, the most beautiful girl was leaning against Gu Yifan like a little bird, and he could smell the fragrance of her body.

She doted on him and saw him as the only person in the world.

What did Gu Yifan have to be angry about? To be honest, it felt pretty good. Gu Yifan patted his butt and got up.

"Let me do it, senior."

In an instant, all eyes were on him, sparking a flurry of discussion.

"Wow, it's that handsome guy from the Electrical Conductivity Department, Class 1."

"His name is Gu Yifan, right? He's really handsome."

"He can do it, he can do it, let him go!"

Gu Yifan was somewhat well-known at school and was immediately recognized.

The second-year male student was still somewhat reluctant.

Gu Yifan was much more handsome than him, and the moment he stood up, he stole the spotlight.

But Gu Yifan stepped forward.

The boy could only give up in frustration, and said sarcastically, "Since this student has volunteered, then let's look forward to your talent show next."

Ugh, that tone of voice, it's making my teeth ache.

"Thank you." Gu Yifan nodded to the other party and smiled, which caused a group of girls to scream softly.

Even though it was just a cheap military training uniform, when worn by Gu Yifan, whose body seemed to be sculpted by God with perfect proportions, he looked like a fashionable male model walking the runway.

Whether clothes look good or not depends entirely on who wears them.

Gu Yifan didn't blame him, as he was only a sophomore in college and just over twenty years old.

However, since that boy wants to compete...

Gu Yifan will also give it his all to show him what the eye of the storm truly is!
The second-year male student, his face ashen, watched as Gu Yifan calmly walked to the center.

He smiled and waved to the screams and applause of the new students around him.

Frustrated, she walked up to her companion and whispered, "Damn, what kind of freshman is this, acting all high and mighty?"

"Your limelight got stolen, didn't it?" his companion laughed. "That guy's pretty famous, I think he's the most handsome freshman this year."

"Pshaw, who knows what talent he'll be performing?"

Just as the second-year male student was feeling indignant, a series of heavy slaps suddenly landed on his shoulder.

He suddenly shuddered.

"Who?"

A lazy, drawn-out tone rang in the boy's ear.

“He is my student, Hu Yifei. What's your opinion? You can tell me to my face.”

Hu Yifei, who was also observing the scene as a counselor, overheard the conversation between the boy and his companion.

Upon hearing Hu Yifei's name, the boy shuddered, turned away with a sheepish grin, and avoided eye contact.

"Teacher Hu Hu".

"Do you know me?" Hu Yifei asked, tilting her head.

Who wouldn't know a real-life campus legend? The boy nodded repeatedly.

"If you know me, be smart and don't get any funny ideas, understand?"

Hu Yifei knew that these second-year students were planning to play a little prank on the freshmen.

She doesn't care about others, but Gu Yifan is Hu Yifei's man.

Ms. Hu's greatest skill is protecting her own!
This brat is asking for trouble! How dare he speak ill of her man.

"Yes, teacher." The second-year male student obediently stepped back.

"Just enjoy the performance, don't cause trouble, or I'll deal with you!" That's what Hu Yifei said.

In the center of the playground.

There were about twelve or thirteen freshmen standing in a row, all looking rather reserved.

Gu Yifan, however, showed no sign of tension and appeared quite relaxed. He sensed something, turned his head, and saw Hu Yifei smiling at him.

Hmm, Gu Yifan doesn't look like a student; he looks more like a new young teacher.

Calm and composed, elegant and poised.

Xinling stood in the crowd, head held high, her beautiful eyes fixed on Gu Yifan.

My heart is fluttering.

Although she wasn't the one standing there, Xinling felt a strange sense of pride.

Because standing there was her Yifan brother, the most dazzling one.

Ms. Hu pursed her lips and muttered a complaint, "Can't you just stop pretending?" But she was still looking forward to what Gu Yifan would do.

Hu Yifei was unaware of Gu Yifan's talents.

Singing? I think I've heard him hum a few lines while cooking; he must be pretty good.

A martial arts demonstration is also possible.

Hu Yifei thought that if Gu Yifan asked her to go up and perform a martial arts routine, she would be happy to cooperate.

The female president of the music club began arranging for the freshmen to showcase their talents.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she arranged for Gu Yifan to be the last one.

That's really giving them face, making their grand finale appearance.

On the road next to the playground.

Three or two freshmen, dressed in military training uniforms, walked towards their dormitories after finishing their last night of extra training.

The freshmen's military training locations are scattered across the campus, and clubs don't just have one recruitment point on the playground.

For clubs like Erxi and Xia Xingchen's, recruitment ended early.

However, neither of them made a decision immediately.

Zhao Erxi wanted to join too many clubs.

They haven't decided yet what kind of club they want, such as an e-sports club, a costume club to promote Han culture, a cosplay club, etc.

She falls in love with every guy she meets and wants to be with every single one of them.
This agonizing situation wouldn't lead to a conclusion, so Erxi turned to look at Xia Xingchen, who was sitting quietly with her head down, and asked after a moment's thought.

"Xingchen, which club do you want to join? Have you thought it over?"

"I haven't." The quiet and somewhat naive Xia Xingchen was startled out of her thoughts by Erxi's question and shook her head.

"You've studied dance before, so joining the dance club would be a good idea," Erxi said with a grin.

"Hmm, I'd like to think about it some more." Xia Xingchen still hadn't made up her mind.

"Oh, I know~" Erxi's eyes darted around, and she teased, "You don't mean to ask Xinling what club she's in, do you?"

Xia Xingchen's eyes widened in surprise at first, but after thinking for a moment, she did not deny it and explained in a soft voice.

"I think it would be more interesting if we joined clubs together."

Erxi pouted. Even with such a blatant attempt to cover it up, she could still see through it!
"I think Xingchen, your real intentions are not what they seem."

"You want to ask Xinling which club her brother belongs to, right?"

"No, no." Xia Xingchen blushed slightly and denied it outright.

Erxi glanced at the still crowded playground, thought for a moment, and then pulled Xia Xingchen toward the playground.

"Erxi, where are you going?"

"I remember Xinling and Senior Brother Gu were doing their military training on this field. They shouldn't be finished yet. Let's go find them."

"This must be hard to find, there are so many people." Xia Xingchen was led forward, and although she was tempted, she still hesitated.

"Hey, let's go, let's just watch the fun." Erxi said without waiting for a reply, pulling Xia Xingchen towards the playground.

Most of the freshmen were not prepared and were pulled to the center to perform their talents.

With hundreds of eyes staring at you, and your mind completely blank, you'd be lucky to even speak without stuttering, let alone perform any talent.

This is probably a way for second-year students to prank freshmen.

Of the dozen or so people, more than half chose to sing or dance, since this is the School of Media and Arts, and there are quite a few art students here.

Whether it sounds good or not is a matter of opinion.

Several boys took a shortcut and performed a set of military-style boxing together, which earned them good-natured applause from the crowd, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

There were two more boys ahead of Gu Yifan. One of them chose to play the drums, and the other chose to play the guitar.

For some reason, they didn't consult Gu Yifan about performing together.

Was there some degree of exclusion or exclusion against him?

Gu Yifan stood to the side with his arms crossed, sensing it but not caring, and even a little wanting to laugh.

"Junior, have you decided what to perform?"

Not far away, the female president of the music club kept glancing in his direction. After thinking for a moment, she walked over and asked him softly.

"Let's sing," Gu Yifan said politely, glancing at the other person before looking away.

"Singing?" The female club president's eyes lit up slightly.

"Then I'll have to look forward to the singing of this year's freshman heartthrob."

"Don't say that, senior, it makes me nervous," Gu Yifan said with a smile.

"You don't seem nervous at all. You're much more relaxed than I was the first time so many people were watching you," the female president said softly, continuing to move closer to Gu Yifan, her eyes almost drooling.

Gu Yifan moved a little further to the side.

Boys also need to be careful to protect themselves when they are out.

"Have you decided which club you want to join yet, junior? Our music club welcomes you anytime."

The female president noticed Gu Yifan's actions and, somewhat regretfully, still extended an invitation.

"I haven't decided yet. If I were to join a club, I would consider the music club first," Gu Yifan said dismissively.

"That's fine then." The female president took it seriously, stealing a glance at Gu Yifan's profile, her heart racing a little.

Afterwards, Ms. Hu felt extremely irritated.

He wanted nothing more than to go up and kick Gu Yifan.

Fortunately, the sound system stuttered for a moment, and the female president had to go over to fix it.

Not far away, Erxi, who was still searching around, accidentally saw Gu Yifan standing in the center of the playground, tugged at Xia Xingchen's arm, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Xingchen, look over there, it's Senior Brother Gu!"
