The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 679: Chapter 679: Land of Etiquette

”Did I just kiss you?”

Zhou Mi looked at Lin Tian’s lips as if she had amnesia, and there was indeed a black lipstick mark on them.

”Not only did you kiss me, but you did it with such force, my lips almost got swollen,” Lin Tian joked.

”Pfft...”

Zhou Mi covered her mouth and giggled. I just gave you a peck, how could it be so exaggerated?

Then, Zhou Mi seriously thought for a moment, and it seemed it really happened. Instantly, her delicate face turned red, looking very charming.

She was too shy to raise her head. But she wanted to see Lin Tian’s expression, so she slowly lifted her gaze, finding that Lin Tian was looking at her, which made her lower her head again.

”What a loss, I just kissed my crush, and I forgot what it felt like. Or maybe... should I kiss him again to savor it?” Zhou Mi secretly mused to herself.

Quickly, she dismissed that greedy thought. She silently told herself, ”But that’s Qingcheng’s boyfriend, how can you do this to her? If this reaches Qingcheng’s ears, we might not even be friends anymore.”

Zhou Mi lowered her head, using the corner of her eye to glance at people around her, seeing that they were all focused on their own things, she felt relieved.

”Hey, didn’t you say you’d do my makeup? Is it happening or not? If not, I’m going to find Xiaomiao,” Lin Tian said indifferently.

Zhou Mi suddenly lifted her head and shouted loudly, ”No way! Sit down!”

Lin Tian sat there cheerfully without moving, recognizing this as the fiery Zhou Mi he knew.

Other girls do makeup to make themselves look more beautiful and goddess-like.

But Zhou Mi was different. Her makeup embodied one word: cool!

The same black eyeliner, black lipstick, black earrings. She swept her hair up, applied hair wax, and styled it. Finally, she put on a hip-hop jacket with a lion print.

Cool! Black cool! Cool in Zhou Mi’s style!

These two standing together looked like a couple. Wearing the same style of clothes and the same makeup.

As for others, although their clothing styles were the same, their makeup was definitely different. The makeup those girls wore was very different from Zhou Mi’s.

One was not completely cool, the other was explosively cool.

After this, Zhou Mi noticed everyone’s gaze towards them changed. It became ambiguous.

When faced with such looks, Zhou Mi would fiercely glare back with her black-lined eyes but never explained anything.

Zhou Mi didn’t explain, and Lin Tian was even less bothered to explain.

...

The evening party was held in the school’s largest auditorium.

This auditorium can accommodate tens of thousands of people and cost billions. It’s decorated with a modern flair, yet retains a scholarly charm.

The more than ten thousand seats in the auditorium were not randomly occupied. Each class had their own designated seating area.

Leaders and guests sat in the front row, while other classes were seated by drawing lots.

However, even with the school’s arrangement, the auditorium was bustling, packed with people.

At this time, the student council members with arm bands stepped in to organize and manage discipline, calming the scene.

The lighting technician turned off the excess lights, leaving two lights focused on the handsome young couple standing on stage.

The girl was Shi Caiyun, ranked fourth on the goddess list.

The boy was Dai Xueling, ranked sixth on the male god list.

”Dear leaders and guests,” Shi Caiyun said sweetly with a smile.

Dai Xueling, with an affectionate smile, continued, ”Dear teachers and fellow students,”

”Good evening, everyone!” the two of them said in unison.

It must be said, besides being good-looking, these two spoke with clear and articulate speech, perfect for being hosts.

Applause erupted from the audience.

The two exchanged a brief but meaningful opening speech, and then jointly announced, ”In the prime of youth, the 2017 freshman evening party officially begins.”

”The first program, presented by the Department of Traditional Medicine, ’Land of Etiquette,’ please enjoy.”

This time, applause rang out again.

To be honest, the students were reluctant to let this handsome couple leave. It’s nice to feast the eyes a bit, isn’t it?

Soon, the first program took the stage.

The first program was evidently specially arranged by the school.

There were many performers, some with erhu, some with xiao, flute, zither, qin, xun. There were even big drums and chime bells!

All these were classical instruments of the Celestial Dragon Continent, a grand setup indeed!

Next, two rows of people took the stage. They were uniformly dressed in long gowns with overlap collars, each holding a paper fan, exuding a classical aura.

Suddenly, a man wearing a blue long gown strode onto the stage.

He was a little old man in his sixties, but he was rosy-cheeked and smiling brightly, like a vigorous man.

Wow...

The entire audience was in an uproar; standing on stage was the newly appointed dean, Zhao Xuefeng.

Zhao Xuefeng stood on stage, expressionless, meticulous.

A segment of flute music began, the leisurely flute sound quieting the entire audience.

Suddenly, someone started beating the big drum.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The sound of the big drum echoed in everyone’s ears, like a spring thunder resonating in their souls.

Soon, the sound of chime bells chimed in.

Nowadays, this instrument is seldom used, but its sound was exceptionally unique, paired with the big drum, it stirred a sense of excitement.

Zhao Xuefeng held a microphone and began to sing in a rich voice.

Confucius said: Courtesy begets reciprocity

Raising the tray to the eyebrows until our hair turns gray

We elder the young and love them all

Sweep the path to welcome guests, the humble door opens

Behold the grand land of etiquette

A gentleman’s virtues spread widely

Rivers and mountains alternate

Stars on earth

Breathing in the grandeur of a millennium

As Zhao Xuefeng’s voice sounded, the young people in over-collar shirts behind him began the Paper Fan Dance.

Their bodies were like silk, soft, moving gracefully, opening and closing the paper fans creating a ’pop!’ sound, coordinated with the drums and chime bells.

Everyone’s mood started to rise and fall.

Behold our Celestial Dragon Continent, Land of Etiquette

Benevolence and righteousness filled with boundless love

Mountains and rivers layered with countless phenomena

Nurturing descendants of Yan and Huang

Zhao Xuefeng’s deep voice seemed to transport everyone to ancient times,

Some remembered family traditions and etiquette. Some recalled the flourishing Han and Tang periods. Others thought of ’If anyone offends me Celestial Dragon, though far, they shall be executed’!

And some thought, the gentlemen of the past must have been like those in the song.

This song, filled with ancient instruments, not only made everyone feel the virtues of ancient gentlemen, but also the strength of the nation.

After the song ended, Zhao Xuefeng still stood on stage solemnly.

Thunderous applause echoed from the audience.

Everyone used all their strength to clap, with flushed faces, and eyes moist with excitement.
