Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

Cheng Xihe sat on a chair in the waiting area.

Several classmates followed behind her; they were all students that Teacher Chen had just brought over.

Teacher Chen instructed, "You all wait here, go up one by one, and each person will have five minutes to speak."

"Teacher, I'll be quick, let them have time to talk." Cheng Xihe glanced around, his gaze landing on the students behind him.

They were all holding speech drafts, and the papers even had the school's logo on them, so it was clear that they had prepared them in advance.

One of them was clutching the paper tightly in his hand.

It's someone I know; I just met them this afternoon.

Sun Danfeng.

Upon noticing that Cheng Xihe had glanced at him, Sun Danfeng immediately straightened up and became fully alert.

Without saying a word, Cheng Xihe looked away.

Teacher Chen nodded, "It's alright, just speak for about two minutes, that's about it. The main problem is that the principal speaks too fast, and there's too much time."

"Pfft." Cheng Xihe chuckled lightly. "Don't principals usually spend at least half an hour there?"

You'll find out soon enough.

The two of them became more relaxed during their conversation, and those around them dared not even breathe.

Those are teachers from the Academic Affairs Office. Normally, everyone would run as far away as possible when they see them. No one would dare to talk and laugh with a teacher like that.

Sun Danfeng secretly scoffed and looked down at his manuscript.

Cheng Xihe heard this keenly, his gaze falling on her for a moment before looking up at the stage: "It'll be soon."

"Okay, you guys wait here. The host will remind you when he gets back. I have to go out and get busy now." Teacher Chen nodded to her.

Cheng Xihe waved his hand: "Okay, Teacher Chen."

The others dared not speak and could only nod in agreement.

After the two hosts on stage finished speaking, the female host announced loudly, "Now, let's welcome the principal to the stage to give a speech."

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

The female host handed the microphone to the principal, then lifted her skirt and came down with the male host.

"Phew, this staircase is so high."

The female host was standing by the stairs.

It was already difficult to go up, and now it's difficult to come down.

Fortunately, there were curtains at the side of the stage, which could block her out.

The male host comforted him, saying, "You can stay here. I'll go down and call for help."

"Okay, thank you."

Cheng Xihe watched the male host come down, glanced at the script, and said, "Cheng Xihe, please get ready."

"Okay, shall I wait upstairs?" Cheng Xihe glanced at him sideways.

The female host nodded: "Yes, please come up. The principal will be finished speaking soon."

"OK."

Cheng Xihe got up and walked upstairs when he heard the principal cough twice: "Hello students, welcome to A University."

Starting today, you will begin your new university life.

I've heard that the school forum is very lively lately. Everyone can keep it up and continue to exchange academic ideas on it.

Some students don't know how to study properly and do things that are detrimental to their classmates. Please refrain from such behavior.

The most important thing at school is to study hard. If that doesn't work, you can learn a trade.

Life is your own; don't spend all your time trying to take advantage of others.

The audience was shocked.

The principal was quite blunt, directly criticizing Luo Qiqi's behavior by name.

With a soft hum, Principal Bai said:

"That troublemaker has already learned his lesson. You are all adults, so don't do anything foolish."

"Finally, welcome back to University A. I hope you have a wonderful four years of university life."

Applause broke out, and Cheng Xihe glanced at the time: "It only took a minute and a half to finish, even though it was all dragged out."

The principal usually speaks slowly and deliberately, and there is usually some interaction involved.

He finished speaking in one breath.

"How dare you talk to the principal like that!" The senior students next to them were dumbfounded.

Cheng Xihe shrugged: "It's alright, it's your turn."

The male host looked over, holding the microphone as he walked, saying, "Thank you for the principal's wonderful speech, yes..."

Principal Bai handed the microphone back to the female host, preparing to step down from Cheng Xihe's side.

The female host quickly said, "Principal, please come this way to leave the stage."

"It's alright, I'll walk over here and take a look." The principal nodded to her and turned to leave.

Seeing this, the female host didn't dare to say anything more and continued to host with a smile.

Principal Bai walked behind the curtain and saw Cheng Xihe standing lazily, wearing a white T-shirt, straight-leg jeans and sneakers.

"You're dressed so casually today?" Old Bai walked over and looked at Cheng Xihe with a smile.

Behind them were the eyes of a group of people.

Cheng Xihe calmly asked, "Principal, is there something wrong with my attire?"

"Of course not, that's great, that's exactly how college students look, full of youthful energy."

Principal Bai patted Cheng Xihe on the shoulder and secretly winked at her: "Do your best, Cheng."

"Okay, Principal." Cheng Xihe nodded and ignored him.

Principal Bai came down from upstairs and took the opportunity to ask them all questions one by one.

Sun Danfeng couldn't even be jealous of Cheng Xihe's calm demeanor when speaking to the principal.

She clenched the draft paper in her hand, swallowed hard, and glanced at Principal Bai.

I have a strange feeling of fear.

I can't be as calm and composed as Cheng Xihe.

Principal Bai greeted each student with a smile, saying, "You are all students from various provinces who have achieved excellent grades."

"Do your best later, so everyone can get to know you."

Over there, Cheng Xihe heard the female host say with a smile, "Next, let's welcome our outstanding freshman representative, Cheng Xihe, to the stage for a speech! Let's give him a round of applause!"

The applause from the audience grew even louder, and some even started to jeer.

Cheng Xihe's arrival made the entire forum aware of it, and everyone has seen the photos.

Not many people have seen the real person, and everyone is very curious.

Taking the microphone, Cheng Xihe calmly walked out.

"Wow!"

The audience gasped in amazement, and everyone couldn't help but start talking.

"So beautiful!"

"Invincible, you're a real person!"

"It really does look like a 3D model face! I thought you were kidding me!"

"I think the photos in the post are too conservative."

"Please, school beauties are judged not only on looks, but also on other things. You guys shouldn't be so superficial."

"You're only saying that because you're not good-looking enough."

Cheng Xihe held the microphone and said, "Hello everyone, I believe you all have a basic understanding of me by now."

My name is Cheng Xihe, and I come from…

After briefly introducing himself, Cheng Xihe said, "Studying is important, but other hobbies are also important. Everyone should cultivate their own interests and hobbies."

A boy in the audience raised his hand: "Hey, what are your hobbies? They all say you're from the countryside and look down on you."

"Excuse me, could you tell me who helped you?"

"We're all curious, since everyone failed the challenge."

Cheng Xihe glanced at the sign in front of him.

It turns out that this area is full of computer science students.

Teacher Chen was stunned.

What was supposed to be a speech suddenly turned into a question-and-answer session.

She was a little worried that Cheng Xihe would be embarrassed, and was about to go over when the principal stopped her: "It's okay, she can handle it."

Teacher Chen understood.

The principal did indeed know Cheng Xihe.

On stage, Cheng Xihe smiled and said, "It's okay if you look down on me. If you're so capable, then defeat me, you defeated wimps."

Upon hearing this, most of the computer science students fell silent.

They were all too familiar with that phrase!

Below the stage, He Lanjing was looking down, playing on her phone with a frustrated expression.

A classmate next to her suddenly nudged her: "Jing, that's Cheng Xihe, the one who's competing with you for the school beauty spot! She's so pretty!"

"That concludes my speech."

Cheng Xihe ignored their silence and turned to leave.

He Lanjing looked up and could only see Cheng Xihe's back: "I didn't see anything."

Her friend shrugged: "She was just here, she's already finished talking, you'll probably see her picture soon."

Absolutely stunning, and she even bears a resemblance to you.

"Not interested." He Lan Jing lowered her head and continued playing with her phone...
