After listening to Cheng Meng’s suggestion, Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan were both stunned.
“No, no, no, what kind of ridiculous idea is this? I have a girlfriend, why would I go and hog the spotlight!”
Qin Tian, having come back to his senses, refused without hesitation.
Xia Nuannuan looked at him with her eyes curved upwards, saying nothing.
“Everyone knows you have a girlfriend, stop emphasizing it all the time!”
Cheng Meng pouted unhappily and continued, “I mean, you should learn from that guy, sing a love song for Xia Nuannuan too.”
Qin Tian was taken aback.
Xia Nuannuan’s pretty face flushed red, and a hint of anticipation flickered in her bright eyes.
“Of course, the premise is that Qin Tian, you can sing, and sing better than him!”
Cheng Meng added.
Qin Tian fell silent for a moment.
Come to think of it, he actually possessed this ability.
Previously, he had gritted his teeth and spent ten thousand points to exchange for a Master-level Skill Blind Box, which turned out to be the Musical Instrument Proficiency skill. It seemed like it could be put to use now.
As for his singing ability, he also believed he wasn't inferior to this so-called ‘Love Song Prince.’
In his past life, during college and later when he entered the workforce, he often went to KTV to sing with classmates and colleagues.
“But if Qin Tian sings for Xia Nuannuan, won’t the girls in that class know he has a girlfriend?”
The girl sitting on Xia Nuannuan’s other side, who had been quietly listening to their conversation, suddenly voiced her confusion.
“Are you stupid!”
Cheng Meng poked her head over and glanced at her, explaining with a smile, “So what if they know? It will only make them more curious about Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan’s relationship, and they’ll still actively go find that beautiful girl to talk about the two of them. Our goal will be achieved!”
“I see, Cheng Meng, I didn’t expect you to know so much!”
The girl said with admiration.
“What? You think I only grew taller and not smarter?”
Cheng Meng looked at her unhappily.
“Hehe… No, no!”
The girl quickly waved her hands.
“Class Monitor? What do you say?”
Cheng Meng’s questioning gaze turned back to Qin Tian.
Qin Tian’s expression was still somewhat hesitant.
Cheng Meng’s method was indeed good, but honestly, he still couldn’t find a reason why he absolutely had to put himself out there.
Su Yan was indeed a good friend, but their connection was mostly through the bond of Xia Nuannuan.
If the main purpose was to help Su Yan by singing this song, it still felt a bit awkward.
Moreover, Su Yan might not need his help with handling interpersonal relationships.
“Class Monitor, you’re really silly, this is for your own good too, a win-win situation,”
Cheng Meng suddenly said again.
“How so?”
Qin Tian looked at her with surprise.
“Do you have a misunderstanding of your own wife’s charm? Look at the guys in the class opposite yours, several of them are secretly paying attention to your wife. Our class guys know about your situation and have given up, but they don’t!”
Cheng Meng gestured towards the opposite formation.
Qin Tian suddenly realized.
He didn’t need to turn his head to look; he already knew.
It was just that he had been invincible in Yucheng No. 4 High School for too long, and having just arrived at university, he had overlooked the step of declaring his possessiveness.
“W-what wife, Cheng Meng, don’t talk nonsense!”
Xia Nuannuan raised her hands to cover her flushed cheeks.
Qin Tian looked at his wife’s shy and cute appearance, his expression serious, and nodded, “I’ll do it. Cheng Meng, I owe you a meal. Anything you want to eat.”
“You said it! It’s almost time to eat crabs, I’ve been craving your southern hairy crabs for a long time.”
Cheng Meng said with a beaming smile, and thinking of the rich, yellow-filled hairy crabs, she couldn’t help but swallow.
“No problem, enough to go around!”
Qin Tian agreed generously.
“Yay, I hit the jackpot.”
Cheng Meng clenched her fist and cheered.
The other two girls’ envy was evident on their faces; they secretly regretted not having helped out.
While they were scheming, the Love Song Prince Li Xun, in front, had already finished his song.
In the formation of the opposite class, some boys loudly heckled and cheered, leading the applause.
A burst of warm applause ensued.
“Thank you, thank you everyone!”
Li Xun bowed gracefully to everyone with a smile and then looked at Su Yan in the front row.
“Su Yan, I know my invitation yesterday might have been too abrupt, and you were uncomfortable, but I truly want to say, just like the lyrics of this song, the first time I saw you yesterday, your image has been lingering in my mind.”
“I like you, and I will continue to like you forever. I believe one day you will agree to me.”
“This song, ‘Love Not Begrudgingly,’ is for you. I hope you like it!”
After the applause subsided, the heartfelt confession caused the scene to fall silent. Then, the heckling and cheering from a few boys in Class 2 erupted.
“Oh, oh…”
“Well sung, well said, Brother Xun, handsome!”
“Su Yan, accept him, get together, get together!”
Besides the awkward heckling and boasting, there were even loyal wingmen loudly shouting to set the rhythm.
The other classmates exchanged glances, and curious eyes turned towards Su Yan, sitting in front, wanting to see how she would respond.
The two instructors stood by with their arms crossed, watching the excitement. They had overseen several freshman military trainings and had witnessed similar scenes many times.
The freshmen, having just escaped the hardships of high school and entered university, were mostly eager to find a partner as soon as possible.
Some busybodies had even统计d that during the freshman military training each year, there was always a surge in people looking to date.
Not just within the same class.
More often, it was the seniors who, using their rich experience and methods accumulated from past failures, targeted the newcomers.
And the freshmen, having just arrived in a strange university environment, perhaps even a strange city, might be moved by the little warmth given by their seniors, even developing a sense of dependence.
“Brother Mouth, stop shouting nonsense. I just want to express my feelings, I don’t want to pressure her,”
Li Xun said loudly to his roommate who was setting the rhythm.
Some perceptive people heard this and immediately felt he was a bit hypocritical.
If he didn’t want to pressure her, why would he do something like this in front of so many people?
After speaking, Li Xun prepared to return to his team.
Just then, a clear, cold voice suddenly rang out.
“Li Xun!”
Hearing the voice, everyone’s gaze collectively focused on Su Yan again.
“Hmm?”
Li Xun’s handsome face displayed a gentle smile, and his eyes looked at her with anticipation.
Su Yan looked up at him, her expression cold, and said, “I’ve seen what it looks like when someone truly likes a person, and perhaps other appearances, but it’s definitely not like yours.”
A hint of a mocking smile appeared on her face, and she added, “So, stop using this approach to pursue girls, at least not on me. This only makes me feel disgusted, truly!”
As her words fell, everyone around was dumbfounded, and the scene became silent.
Li Xun’s smile froze on his face.
