When Chen Hanxing returned to his dormitory, he was surprised to find everyone in 602 was present.
Yang Shichao, Guo Shaoqiang, Jin Yangming, and Dai Zhenyou were playing cards, and Li Zhenan was watching. Chen Hanxing couldn't help but sigh.
"What's bothering you, old Four?" Yang Shichao asked.
"I just think you guys are hopeless. It's Christmas Eve, and you're here playing cards in the dorm. There are so many girls in our class, why don't you make a move?" Chen Hanxing was frustrated and saddened by their lack of action, given the good conditions they had before.
Guo Shaoqiang replied displeased, "Don't point fingers at us, you only had dinner with Shen Youchu tonight, and her beauty is only about a 2.15 out of 10."
"Hmph."
Suddenly, Jin Yangming, who had been silent while playing, let out a cold laugh. "2.15, huh."
Guo Shaoqiang felt that Jin Yangming was doubting his scientific rating system and grumbled, "Old Six, if you have something to say, say it!"
Chen Hanxing walked behind Jin Yangming and patted his shoulder. "Your cards are the ones you're keeping hidden, but be careful not to play them all at once."
Jin Yangming turned around and understood the hint. He shouldn't reveal the real situation with Shen Youchu.
"There's nothing to say. Let's just play cards. Big cat plays the trump card, little cat plays the trump card, against the King of trump cards..."
As Jin Yangming began to play his cards, Chen Hanxing smiled and checked his phone because he had received a message.
**Shang Yanyan:** "Class leader, you're really living up to your bad boy reputation."
**Chen Hanxing:** "?"
**Shang Yanyan:** "Tonight, on Christmas Eve, I first saw you and Shen Youchu having hotpot in the cafeteria, and then I saw you with a pretty girl entering a hotpot restaurant on the street."
**Chen Hanxing:** "We're just classmates. Don't misunderstand."
At this point, Chen Hanxing suddenly realized how wise and profound his mother's "we're just classmates" response was.
**Shang Yanyan:** "I won't believe that, but if you can cheat two girls, why not go for three?"
Chen Hanxing chose not to reply, muttering to himself, "What the hell are you thinking?"
After Christmas, only a few things remained for Chen Hanxing to do this semester.
First, there was the courier business. As the holiday approached, the volume of deliveries was increasing. "Rocket 101" had gained some recognition at the four surrounding universities.
Second, there were the final exams, which he had to try to pass.
Initially, Chen Hanxing was very interested in the courier business for the Hong Kong-owned electronics factory, but since others said they would talk after the Spring Festival, he had to wait patiently.
Another event was the New Year's Eve party and the 50th anniversary celebration of the business school. Chen Hanxing was supposed to help with the preparations but didn't have time, so he asked Mu Wenling, the vice president of the student union, to help with the organization.
At first, Mu Wenling hesitated because she also needed to study for exams.
However, when Chen Hanxing took her to meet Teacher Guan Shuman of the student union, Mu Wenling realized that the Humanities Department Student Union currently didn't have a president, only three vice presidents, and Guan Shuman was the one who would decide who would become president.
Mu Wenling was already a junior, and if she could become the president in the second semester, it would be very beneficial for her future career.
Especially when helping to organize the New Year's Eve party, Mu Wenling realized that Chen Hanxing was already a student cadre in the school's Youth League Committee. This made her understand the true reason why Zuo Xiaoli failed previously.
Mu Wenling then wanted to treat Chen Hanxing to dinner as a thank-you for his matchmaking, but he declined because he was too busy.
Mu Wenling could only sigh internally. This freshman had already become class leader, vice president of the student union, a student leader in the Youth League, and an entrepreneurial college student in just half a semester.
The first three roles were significant milestones in one's student career, and while Mu Wenling didn't think "entrepreneurial college student" was as important, soon enough, something would prove that this was, in fact, the most practical one.
On December 31, 2002, the day of the New Year's Eve party and the 50th anniversary celebration of the business school, large red lanterns hung at the campus entrance with the words "Happy New Year" written on them. The administrative building and office building were decorated with long colorful banners, and the main campus path was clean and tidy, with signs reading "Welcome XXX leaders for guidance" posted everywhere.
These things were far from the daily life of university students, so everyone continued with their studies or relationships. But after the inspection meeting, the leaders suddenly remembered something.
"We previously issued a document to support student entrepreneurship, and other schools have not implemented it. How is it at the Business School?"
The dean of the Business School, Cai Qinong, was stunned. These documents were usually just slogans, so he hadn't paid much attention to them. He was often out attending meetings and hadn't heard of the 101 and 102 offices or noticed the promotional paper bags.
Luckily, Vice Dean Lu Gongchao and Youth League Deputy Secretary Yu Yueping were aware of the situation and quickly explained, taking the leaders to visit the 101 entrepreneurship base.
At that moment, Chen Hanxing was collecting packages, and the entire base was bustling with energy. Everyone's face was sweaty, giving the place a genuine atmosphere.
The leaders, seeing this, approached Chen Hanxing to ask about the significance of this project.
In such situations, mentioning "money" was off-limits, so Chen Hanxing passionately said, "The nearest post office is 20 minutes away from the school, and they don't offer pickup services, which added a lot of burden to our daily lives."
"Thanks to the support of the school leaders and guidance from teachers Yu Yueping and Guo Zhongyun, we established this courier collection center to provide more convenient services for the campus."
Yu Yueping wasn't technically a guidance teacher, but Chen Hanxing purposely included him in his thanks, making Yu Yueping's chubby face under his glasses visibly excited.
As Chen Hanxing spoke, he even wiped the sweat from his forehead, which was immediately captured by the university's media team with cameras clicking away.
The leaders were very impressed with Chen Hanxing's entrepreneurial awareness, even patting him on the shoulder to encourage him.
They didn't stay long, but the impact of this visit on the 101 and 102 offices was far from over.
As they were leaving, Cai Qinong called Yu Yueping over, "I noticed that the setup in the entrepreneurship base isn't up to standard. You didn't take on enough responsibility as a guiding teacher."
Although this sounded like criticism, it was actually praise, because the entrepreneurship base had saved Cai Qinong's face today.
Yu Yueping took the opportunity to reply, "The Youth League Committee has already arranged two computers for 101, and they're being implemented now."
Cai Qinong nodded. "And they should be exempt from their water and electricity fees. We need to communicate more often; the school's attitude toward supporting this should be reflected."
"By the way, who exactly is this Chen Hanxing?"
Cai Qinong asked again.
Yu Yueping quickly listed Chen Hanxing's various titles, and Cai Qinong thought for a moment before saying, "Such a student should serve as a model. Let's nominate him for the school's 'Model Student of the Year' award."
Yu Yueping hesitated a bit.
Cai Qinong asked, "What's the problem?"
Yu Yueping replied honestly, "Chen Hanxing's grades are average, and he might even fail some courses."
He was concerned that if Chen Hanxing was named "Model Student" but ended up failing, it would be hard to explain to other students.
"That doesn't matter."
Cai Qinong wasn't bothered at all. "Being a 'Model Student' isn't just about academic excellence. His practical entrepreneurial skills are enough."
