The host tested the sound on the stage, and the students gradually focused their attention on it.

"Now, please welcome the freshman representative to the stage."

*Slap! Slap! Slap!*

Thunderous applause erupted, especially from the boys, who clapped harder than anyone else, all believing that Yun Daidai would be the one to go on stage.

Tap tap~~ Tap tap~~

Zhou You stood on the podium amidst the astonished gazes of countless people, his expression calm and composed. Having just spoken eloquently to the board of directors at Yun's Group a few days ago, he clearly wouldn't show any weakness in front of his students.

"Hello everyone, I am Zhou You, a freshman in the Department of Psychology."

A commotion immediately erupted from the audience.

"It really is him? Why him? I can't accept it!"

"So, Yun Xiaohua's ex-boyfriend is quite a formidable figure too?"

For them, the impact of traveling to different speaking positions is no less than...

The hero finally overcomes the twelve trials, defeats the seven dwarfs, wins the Holy Grail War, and awakens Athena, who is sleeping deep within the zodiac, only to discover that she is actually Snow White's wicked queen.

That makes absolutely no sense!

In terms of fame, achievements, and fans, Yun Daidai is clearly superior.

Perhaps only the person involved thinks it's normal. Yun Daidai knows that she is a transfer student who transferred schools through connections and could not possibly become a freshman representative.

She was simply surprised that Zhou You was the representative of the freshmen, which meant that even though Zhou You had been distracted by her in high school, he was still better than most freshmen at Z University.

"I know many of you are surprised that I am standing on this stage. I was just as surprised as you were when I first heard the news a few days ago."

"I am just a freshman like everyone else, an ordinary person, but I am fortunate to represent you on this stage."

"From a physics perspective, we all originated from inorganic atoms in violation of the second law of thermodynamics. From a biological perspective, we share a common ancestor, originating from a miracle in which genetic information was generated according to the laws of evolution to guide the assembly of humankind."

"We are all the same kind of people, beyond the result of chemical reactions, beyond the sum of animal desires, a miracle worth cherishing."

Zhou You's speech began without anyone noticing, and the students' noise gradually subsided as they became more and more engrossed in the content of his speech.

And then, in the process, she realized that Yun Xiaohua's ex-boyfriend was actually a top student?

His voice echoed in the auditorium as his speech drew to a close.

"...Our university life has just begun, and I don't know what we should do in university to make it meaningful, but I hope that on graduation day, everyone can hold their heads high and tell themselves that they had a good university experience."

"That concludes my speech. Thank you everyone."

Zhou You bowed to the audience and walked off the stage with a smile.

About a minute after he left, thunderous applause erupted as the freshmen bid him farewell with even more enthusiastic applause than at the beginning.

Yun Daidai took the most photos, her eyes sparkling as she gazed at Zhou You's retreating figure.

Zhou You walked down to the audience and ran into Ning Moxin, who had tidied herself up and was about to go on stage.

"Principal Ning," Zhou You greeted respectfully.

“Zhou,” Ning Moxin paused, “you performed even better than I expected.”

"Principal Ning is too kind."

"You need to change your overly modest personality."

She walked past Zhou You without stopping.

Zhou You felt a delicate touch on the back of his hand, a familiar sensation he recognized as the smoothness of a woman's fingertips.

"Well."

He hesitated and turned back to look at Ning Moxin, who stood on the stage, gentle yet serious, exuding the authority of a teacher. "It was probably an accident."

Afterwards, Zhou You returned to his class's assigned area and sat on the outermost side.

"Wow, you're amazing, bro!" The sweet-looking girl who had once asked Zhou You a question exclaimed with admiration.

The girl next to her laughed at her, "Wow, this guy's amazing, you're already in love?"

"It's not a problem if he's single and I'm single."

It's no wonder his classmates were smitten. He was handsome and academically gifted; not only his classmates, but even the female students who came to audit his classes couldn't help but inquire about Zhou You's details.

If he were in a better physique, like having abs or something.

Don't underestimate the enthusiasm of the female university students. You'll be surprised to see a group of female students dressed in JK uniforms coming to find you for a chance encounter.

It will make you completely immersed in the gentle and warm pampering of your senior classmates.

Let me show you what it means to be like a wolf or a tiger for four years of university!

Unless you ruin the fields, no handsome and academically gifted junior student can stand out from the crowd.

Faced with this girl's direct approach, Zhou You could only smile and that was all he could do.

Sorry, he's not interested in young, inexperienced girls right now.

…………

Time flew by, and one group of people went up and down the stage after another. By four or five o'clock, the event was finally over.

Zhou You waited a little longer, until most of the students had left, before getting up.

"Zhou You." But he was still approached by Yun Daidai, and her gaze was more intense than usual.

"Is something the matter?" Zhou You felt a little uncomfortable being looked at like that.

"If I hadn't treated you like that in high school, you would definitely be even more outstanding."

"..."

Zhou You hadn't expected Yun Daidai to tell him this, which made him suppress his urge to leave.

He thought for a moment and shook his head gently. "Although you only did it so that I could take better care of you and not embarrass you, I still thank you for helping me overcome my laziness."

This is just Zhou You's rational perspective.

Emotionally speaking, he had tried many times for the young lady over the past three years, but each time he finally met her requirements, she would just nod casually.

They didn't care about his thoughts at all and quickly arranged the next task.

It's perfectly normal that he doesn't want to live like a tool anymore.

76. University life is good

Zhou You's earlier words clearly made Yun Daidai look downcast, but she cheered up again when she heard the second half of his sentence. She took out her phone and asked cautiously.

"Then... could you please remove my WeChat ID from your blacklist? I won't bother you, I'm just worried that you won't be able to reach me when you want to."

"can."

Zhou You nodded under Yun Daidai's surprised gaze and removed her from the blacklist.

He never intended to block Yun Daidai. He wouldn't have blocked her if she hadn't made some extreme remarks at that time.

Their conversation attracted the attention of those still lingering in the hall, much to the bewilderment of Yun Daidai's suitors.

"The campus belle actually took the initiative to add her ex-boyfriend back on WeChat. I treated her roommate to a month of fancy meals before I finally got his WeChat ID, but he blocked me as soon as I added him."

"I just don't understand, why!"

They were incredibly envious and jealous, and couldn't understand why Yun Daidai was fawning over Zhou You like that.

A female senior passing by rolled her eyes at them and complained, "The junior is so outstanding, it's annoying that Yun Daidai keeps bothering him."

"???"

Yun Daidai's suitors looked at the fair-skinned, beautiful, and long-legged senior next to her, and their jealousy grew stronger. How could a beautiful senior speak up for Zhou You?

"So what if he's handsome!" someone couldn't help but retort, saying that shallow women only care about looks.

"Heh." The senior scoffed, "Being handsome is great, especially since the junior has good grades. He's much better than you bunch of good-for-nothings, hmph."

She snorted and glanced at Zhou You from afar. She quickly asked someone for information about her junior, wanting to strike first before he was devoured by those old women.

Yun Daidai noticed the small theater next to her. She felt a chill in her heart, but remained relatively calm. In the entire Z University, she couldn't see a single woman who was worthy of competing with her.

She remained as arrogant as ever. In her eyes, apart from Zhou You, no one at Z University could earn her any respect.

Zhou You put away his phone, smiled and said goodbye, "Dai Dai, I have something to do, I'll be going now."

Yun Daidai pursed her lips. He used to always take the initiative to find topics to talk about with her and gently make her happy, but now he didn't even want to say a word to her.

"I want to go out too, let's go together."

Zhou You frowned, neither agreeing nor refusing, and turned away aloofly.

Yun Daidai, much to the heartbreak of her suitors, shamelessly followed after them.

The two walked outside, barely side by side. Yun Daidai wanted to start a conversation several times, but she swallowed the words back.

It's so hard to win over an indifferent person.

She lowered her head and suddenly understood even more what Zhou You had felt before.

What was his mindset when he tirelessly and enthusiastically accompanied her through her three years of high school?

She was already overwhelmed after only a few months.

"I'm going to the library, are you going too?" Zhou You asked Yun Daidai politely from the roadside.

“I…” Yun Daidai hesitated, unsure whether she should continue to pester him.

"You don't need to force yourself. I'm just an ordinary person. Take your eyes off me and you'll see a wider world." Since force couldn't make Yun Daidai see the light, Zhou You decided to try a different approach to guide her, hoping it might work wonders.

Yun Daidai's hands were clenched so tightly that her neatly trimmed nails seemed to be digging into her flesh, she suddenly realized.

I am indeed... unworthy.

"I won't bother you any longer, goodbye." She turned and left in a hurry.

Zhou You watched Yun Daidai walk away. Before the nightlife began, he decided to stay in the library for a while. He didn't know what others thought was meaningful to do in college, but he believed he should learn more.

After all, he is a man with goals and ideals, extremely good-looking, and determined to become a new-era male god.

He went to the library, picked up a few books, and found a place to sit down and read quietly.
