Chapter 86: A Model Student Yang Tianxing?

After Yang Tianxing returned to the dormitory, he discovered that all the members of 312 were actually in the room.

Fu Yiming, Song Fei, Qian Jiale, and Yi Min were playing cards, while Li Ainan was actually not reading sheet music today, but sitting to the side joining in the fun; Yang Tianxing couldn't help but sigh.

"Second Brother, what are you sighing about for no reason?" Fu Yiming asked.

"I feel that you are all rotten wood that cannot be carved, mud that cannot be propped up on a wall; it's Christmas Eve and you're actually playing cards in the dormitory. There are so many girls in the class, why aren't you asking them out?"

Yang Tianxing was angry at their lack of ambition and lamented their misfortune, as they hadn't utilized the excellent conditions created for them earlier.

Song Fei said with dissatisfaction: "Second Brother, don't talk about us; you only had a meal with Liu Jiaoyue tonight, and in my scoring system, classmate Liu only gets a 2.15."

"Hmph hmph."

Yi Min, who had been keeping his head down playing cards, suddenly let out a cold laugh: "2.15, hmph hmph."

Song Fei felt that Yi Min was questioning his pride-and-joy scientific scoring system, and said with an unhappy face: "Sixth Brother, if you have something to say, just say it, don't just hmph."

Yang Tianxing walked over to Yi Min and patted him on the shoulder: "Your hand is a trump-heavy hand, but be careful, don't play it all out in one go."

Yi Min turned his head and glanced; he understood Yang Tianxing's hint not to let the truth about Liu Jiaoyue get out.

"Nothing to say, play cards, play cards."

Yi Min played his cards with a "clatter-bang," while Yang Tianxing looked at his phone with a grin because a text message had just arrived.

Deng Yidi: Class monitor, you really are a scumbag in every sense of the word.

Yang Tianxing:?

Deng Yidi: It's Christmas Eve today, and lonely me first saw you eating hot pot with Liu Jiaoyue in the cafeteria, and later saw you enter a hot pot restaurant with another pretty girl on the street.

Yang Tianxing: We are just classmates, don't talk nonsense, and don't misunderstand.

At this moment, Yang Tianxing suddenly felt how wise and far-reaching the "classmate relationship" answer he gave his mother was.

Deng Yidi: Anyway, I won't believe it, but if you can be a scumbag to two girls at the same time, can't you be one to me as well?

Yang Tianxing stopped replying directly, muttering to himself: "You're fucking dreaming."

After Christmas, the semester had truly entered its final stages, and for Yang Tianxing, only a few things remained.

On one hand, there was the courier business; however, as the holiday approached, the volume of courier pickups had maintained an upward trend, and now "Rocket 101" already had some reputation among these five schools.

The second was the final exams; he had to try his best to pass.

Originally, Yang Tianxing was very interested in the courier business for the Hong Kong-funded electronics factory, but others said to wait until after the Spring Festival to discuss it, so Yang Tianxing could only wait patiently; however, he wasn't worried, just waiting to see what kind of help the sports-car beauty—Zhao Qingxun—could provide when the time came.

There was also the New Year's Eve gala and the Finance Institute's 50th-anniversary celebration; originally, Yang Tianxing was supposed to contribute to this as well, but he didn't have the time, so he asked the Student Union Vice President Jiang Minling to help at the Youth League Committee.

Jiang Minling was a bit hesitant at first because she also needed to study for exams.

However, when Yang Tianxing took her to meet the Youth League Committee teacher Guan Shuman, Jiang Minling suddenly realized that the Humanities and Social Sciences Department currently had no President, only three Vice Presidents, and Guan Shuman was the teacher who decided the candidate for President.

Jiang Minling was already a junior, and if she could become the Student Union President in the second semester, it would be very helpful for her future career selection.

Especially while helping to organize and prepare for the New Year's Eve gala, Jiang Minling learned that Yang Tianxing was already a student cadre in the Youth League Committee's Supervision Center, and only then did she understand the real reason for Long Fuxin's previous failure.

So Jiang Minling wanted to treat Yang Tianxing to a meal to thank him for his mediation, but Yang Tianxing refused; he really didn't have the time.

Jiang Minling could only sigh in her heart that this freshman junior had become a class monitor, department student vice-minister, school Youth League Committee student cadre, and entrepreneurial student in just half a semester.

The first three positions were important markers of a student career, but Jiang Minling felt the last one, "entrepreneurial student," was not very important, though facts would soon prove that this thing was the most important of all.

December 31, 2002, was the day the New Year's Eve gala and the Finance Institute's 50th-anniversary celebration were held.

Large red lanterns were hung high at the school gate with "Celebrate the New Year" written on them, long colorful streamers were draped over the administration and office buildings, the main school road was clean and tidy, and various banners saying "Welcome XXX leaders to inspect and guide" were hung everywhere.

These things were relatively far from the daily lives of college students; everyone was still studying or falling in love as usual, but after the inspecting leaders finished their meeting, they suddenly remembered one thing.

"We previously issued a document regarding supporting student entrepreneurship; other schools in Chang'an have basically not implemented it. I wonder how it is here at the Finance Institute?"

The President of the Finance Institute, Liu Yannian, was stunned at the time; such documents were usually just slogans, so he hadn't taken it to heart at all. Moreover, he often went out for meetings and hadn't heard of the reputation of Building Z 101 and 102, nor had he noticed the promotional paper bags.

Vice President Xia Mingde and Deputy Secretary of the Youth League Committee Sun Nan, who were accompanying the inspection, knew about this and hurriedly smoothed things over, even taking the inspecting leaders to the 101 Entrepreneurship Base.

At that time, Yang Tianxing was busy picking up packages, and the entire entrepreneurship base was bustling with activity, everyone covered in sweat, looking very authentic.

After seeing this, the leader walked up and asked Yang Tianxing about the significance of doing this.

At a time like this, one certainly couldn't mention a vulgar thing like "money," so Yang Tianxing said passionately: "The nearest post office is 20 minutes away from the school, and they don't offer door-to-door pickup, which added a lot of burden to our daily lives."

"Later, with the support of the Finance Institute's leadership and the help of instructors Sun Nan and Xie Yu'an, we responded to the relevant documents to establish this courier pickup center, just to provide more convenient campus services."

Sun Nan was hardly an instructor, but Yang Tianxing deliberately singled him out for thanks, and the fat face under Old Sun's glasses flushed with excitement.

While Yang Tianxing was speaking, he deliberately wiped the sweat from his forehead, and this shot was immediately captured by the school broadcasting station reporter, who went "Click, click" to take pictures as important visual material.

The leader was very satisfied with Yang Tianxing's entrepreneurial awareness and even patted him on the shoulder to show encouragement.

They didn't stay long before leaving, but the impact of this incident on 101 and 102 went far beyond that.

Liu Yannian called Sun Nan over while walking: "I just took a look, the infrastructure inside the entrepreneurship base is very inadequate; you, as the instructor, haven't shouldered the burden."

This sentence sounded like a reprimand, but it was actually a compliment, because the entrepreneurship base had saved face for Liu Yannian today.

Sun Nan also took the opportunity to say: "The Youth League Committee has already coordinated two computers for 101, and it is being implemented."

Only then did Liu Yannian nod: "Help them waive the utility bills as well, and communicate more often; the school still needs to show this bit of support."

"Also, what is that Yang Tianxing's status?"

Liu Yannian asked again.

Sun Nan hurriedly listed Yang Tianxing's series of titles, and Liu Yannian thought for a while and said: "Such a student has a benchmarking effect; select him for this year's school 'Three Goods' student."

Sun Nan hesitated for a moment.

Liu Yannian asked: "Inconvenient?"

Sun Nan told the truth: "Yang Tianxing's grades might not be very good, and he might even fail a subject."

He was worried that if he were selected as a "Three Goods" student and turned out to be a student who failed a subject, it would be hard to explain to the other students.

"What of it?"

Liu Yannian said without the slightest concern: "A school 'Three Goods' student isn't just about specializing in studies; having excellent hands-on entrepreneurial ability is also acceptable."
