Chapter 449: Chapter 219: Little Devil
Soon, news of a handsome guy singing on the athletic field spread among the students.
Everyone started texting their friends, calling them over.
[Girls, hurry! Someoneās singing on the east field! And heās super handsome!]
[Someoneās on the field singing and playing a Jay Chou song on the guitar. It sounds amazing. Wanna come listen?]
...
As more and more people gathered, the crowd singing along grew larger and larger.
Many even took out their phones, turned on their flashlights, and waved them to the beat.
This left the guitarās original owner, standing right next to Lin Shen, completely dumbfounded.
He had thought Lin Shen wanted to use this chance to talk with him about music.
He never expected Lin Shen to completely steal the show!
Looking around at the ecstatic students, the guitarās owner felt his face burn under their gazes. He wished he could find a hole to crawl into right then and there.
Lin Shen, however, felt no such social anxiety or shyness. In fact, he was thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being adored by the students.
So after finishing "Counterclockwise Clock," he followed it up with a folk song he was best at.
"Zebra, Zebra"
The two songs, from vastly different genres, left every student in the audience amazed.
āHe can sing folk songs, too?ā
Gu Wanqing clutched her hands tightly to her chest, her breathing slightly erratic. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Lin Shen, the love for him in her heart erupting like a volcano.
At first, she had been drawn to Lin Shenās handsome looks and his personality, which was gentle yet witty.
But now, as Lin Shen revealed his talent for singing, Gu Wanqing found herself completely lost in this outstanding ability of his.
They say that at some point in their lives, girls fall in love with folk music, and with the boys who sing it.
This method of wooing girls with good singing was universally effective, no matter the age!
From married women in their thirties and forties down to teenage girls of eighteen or nineteen.
No girl could resist a handsome guy who could sing and play the guitar.
Jiang Wan was no exception.
At this moment, she stood with her arms crossed, a faint smile on her lips. The affection gathering in her slightly narrowed, beautiful eyes was several times more intense than usual.
Jiang Wan had never imagined Lin Shen could sing. She already thought his photography skill was a surprising enough talent.
But she never expected him to have hidden so much!
Photography, music, entrepreneurship...
āIs there anything Lin Shen canāt do?ā
Jiang Wan suddenly felt that this junior of hers was a little too perfect.
So perfect that he seemed like someone who couldnāt possibly exist in the real world.
And yet, here he wasāthis exceptional dreamboatāstanding right before them, the object of admiration for the several hundred students in the crowd.
In the span of just two songs, less than ten minutes, Lin Shen had already become the campus dreamboat etched deep in the hearts of many girls around him.
All sorts of gazes filled with affection and adoration focused on him, as the seeds of secret crushes took root and sprouted in their hearts.
āŖ~Zebra, zebra, please donāt fall asleep~āŖ
āŖ~Iām just a traveler in a hurry~āŖ
āŖ~Zebra, zebra, go on and sleep, go on and sleep~āŖ
āŖ~Iām going to sell my house and roam to the ends of the earth~āŖ
...
When the last line of the song ended, Lin Shen stopped playing and gave a slight bow to the crowd, eliciting a wave of applause and cheers.
In this fervent atmosphere, several girls ran out from the crowd, mustering their courage to offer Lin Shen water.
Of course, their main goal was to ask for his contact information.
However, Lin Shen turned them all down one by one.
Jiang Wan and Gu Wanqing were watching him, after all. He wouldnāt dare to so openly flirt around.
"Ahemā!"
Lin Shen cleared his throat. He had gotten so caught up in his own excellent performance that heād almost forgotten the real reason he was here.
"Hello everyone. First, let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Shen, and Iām not actually a student at Shanghai International Studies University."
"To be precise, Iām not a student at all."
Huh?
The moment Lin Shen said this, he piqued the interest of all the students around him.
Many who had seen the performance end and were about to leave turned back, curious about Lin Shenās identity.
āHeās not a student at Shanghai International Studies University?ā
āThen who is he?ā
Seeing the students staring at him eagerly, waiting for the answer, Lin Shen waved to Gu Wanqing, who was standing not far away, signaling for her to come to his side.
Her expression faltered for a moment before a blush crept onto her pretty face. Still, she trotted over to Lin Shenās side, wringing her hands in front of her and lowering her shy face. She was clearly a bit socially awkward.
"Do you all know her?"
Lin Shen casually rested his hand on Gu Wanqingās shoulder, causing the many boys in the crowd to glare with fire in their eyes, their expressions utterly dumbfounded.
Gu Wanqing?
āIsnāt she the most famous freshman at Shanghai International Studies University this year?ā
āI heard sheās also a top contender for campus belle!ā
In some peopleās eyes, she was even prettier than Jiang Wan.
She just lost out slightly when it came to her figure.
āSo, why is she so close to this guy!ā
āIt canāt be...ā
The hearts of the surrounding boys began to race, their shocked gazes gradually filling with envy and jealousy.
Fortunately, Lin Shenās next sentence dispelled their bitter thoughts.
"Iām Gu Wanqingās brother."
After Lin Shen revealed his identity, the students around them breathed a collective sigh of relief.
Everyone was thinking the same thing.
The boys didnāt want Gu Wanqing to have a boyfriend, and the girls didnāt want Lin Shen to have a girlfriend.
It was a win-win for both sides.
"Iāve heard recently that a lot of people have been harassing my sister, so Iād like to say a few things here."
Although Lin Shenās voice was gentle, it was filled with a hint of coldness and seriousness.
"First, itās fine if you want to pursue her normally, but I donāt want you disrupting my sisterās daily life. No one likes a persistent simp."
