Tell Me You Have a Crush On Me [Rebirth]

41-2

"Well, I just happened to see it in the library, so I borrowed it to read."

Xiang Lin handed him a book with a translucent cover, turned it upside down, and said, "I think you will like this one more."

Yu Ning slowly turned the title page, his eyes lit up, "Senior, this is too..."

Xiang Lin put his index finger on his lips, "Shh, you have to return it after you finish reading it."

Yu Ning suppressed his excitement. He carefully closed the book and put it under other books. "Thank you, senior."

Xiang Lin looked at his watch and said, "You're welcome. I'll go over first."

"OK, all right."

Xiang Lin took two steps forward, then turned back and bent slightly. "The new students will be asked to introduce themselves later. Please prepare."

Yu Ning nodded.

At exactly three o'clock, Xiang Lin stood in front of the podium. "Good afternoon, students. First of all, congratulations on standing out and becoming a member of the 100-person painting competition."

“As old friends, I believe everyone is familiar with each other, but there are 16 new faces participating in this competition. Let us welcome these outstanding freshmen with warm applause.”

Afterwards, sixteen people took turns to come on stage and gave brief self-introductions.

As the only student admitted without taking the entrance examination in the past four years, Yu Ning inevitably caused quite a stir when he took the stage.

But whether these looks were true admiration or questioning, it didn’t matter to Yu Ning.

He finished his introduction calmly and returned to his seat.

Xiang Lin returned to the podium and said, "Last year, we unfortunately missed the championship. I hope we can learn from our mistakes and make further progress this year. Come on, everyone."

Xiang Lin has a strong affinity, but also has a natural leadership ability that makes people tend to follow him habitually.

"I'm sorry, I have other things to do. In the next period of time, let Zhuo Heng, a graduate student from the Chinese Painting Department of our Research Institute, come on stage to explain the new policies and precautions for this competition."

After the applause, a young man with semi-long curly hair walked onto the stage.

Even after so many years, Yu Ning still had a deep impression of Zhuo Heng. In his previous life, when he was studying at Yuanmei and represented Yuanmei in the painting competition, Zhuo Heng was the only person in charge of Jingda. They also had some superficial but unpleasant exchanges.

After numerous competitions, Jingda became Yuanmei's strongest rival. Yuanmei has a high technical level and will have an advantage in the early drafting stage, but Jingda pays more attention to innovation and the sublimation of ideas.

Theoretically, the later the competition progresses, the lower Yuanmei's competitiveness will be. But in the last round of competition, Zhuo Heng insisted on his own ideas and completely messed up the efforts of the first 99, sending Yuanmei to the championship throne.

Zhuo Heng has painting skills, but he is arrogant, looks down on others, and has a unclear self-awareness.

The mobilization meeting lasted for two hours and was finally coming to an end.

Before everyone applauded and prepared to leave, Zhuo Heng asked again: "Is Yu Ning here?"

Yu Ning raised his hand: "Coming."
