Four Skills for All.

September 30th, night.

Mu Mu and Cao Fenglin ate at a restaurant outside the school.

Mu Mu asked, "Feng Lin, Mo Xiu kept looking for you before, what's wrong?"

Cao Fenglin tried to dodge the question, saying, "It's nothing, just asking about skills."

Mu Mu glared at her and said, "So you're starting to lie to me now, huh?"

Cao Fenglin quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no!"

"to be honest!"

"Um......"

Seeing Cao Fenglin hesitate, Mu Mu whispered, "Is it about firearms?"

Cao Fenglin nodded.

Why is Mo Xiu inquiring about firearms? What does he want to achieve?

"He's investigating and wants my help."

"So, have you agreed to help?"

"No!"

Why not?

"Because you are now above all else in my heart."

Mu Mu blushed and lowered her head, whispering coquettishly, "You... speak properly!"

"It's really because of you that I want to look forward."

Mu Mu stood up, leaned close to Cao Fenglin's face, and said, "This isn't looking forward; this is running away from the past."

Cao Fenglin lowered his head in shame.

Mu Mu said earnestly, "Feng Lin, promise me, do what you want to do, truly step out of this situation. I support you."

Cao Fenglin kept his head down, not wanting Mu Mu to see his already reddened eyes.

Mu Mu and Cao Fenglin parted ways after having dinner.

Mu Mu was going to run for the student council, and Cao Fenglin returned to his office to wait for her.

Every year on September 30th, on the eve of the club's individual singles competition, there is such an election.

On the day of the generational change, all student council members must attend to elect the next president, vice president, and ministers of various departments, among more than twenty other positions.

The election process was simple: each candidate would go on stage and give a speech explaining the position they wanted to run for.

Afterwards, a live vote will be held, and the candidate with the most votes will be elected. The results will be announced that evening.

As a freshman, Mu Mu was not eligible to participate in the election; he could only vote.

However, due to his remarkable achievement of leading the support department into the top four of the intra-school competition, he was exceptionally selected as a candidate.

Mu Mu is running for the position of Minister of Human Resources.

Upon arriving at the meeting room, the host said a few simple words and then began the election.

The election process is to first elect a minister, then elect candidates for each department one by one. After each candidate finishes their speech, the results are announced on the spot, and then the process moves on to the next department.

Soon it was Mumu's turn to take the stage.

"Hello everyone, my name is Mu Mu, and I'm running for Minister of Human Resources. Many of you may not know me well, so let me introduce myself first. I'm a first-year student majoring in Support Engineering, and in this year's campus team competition..."

Mu Mu expressed himself clearly and thought fluently, explaining his previous achievements and the work he would do after taking office, which garnered him a lot of support.

After finishing his speech, Mu Mu returned to his seat and took a deep breath.

"Mumu, your speech was excellent, and you are capable enough to be elected minister. I will vote for you."

Because of nervousness, Mu Mu started reciting her speech as soon as she came in. She only looked around to see who it was when she heard the person next to her talking to her.

The person sitting next to me, Mu Mu recognized, was a third-year student majoring in auxiliary fields. He was very enthusiastic, and although his skills were consistently poor, he was a very good person.

"Senior Bai Fan, it's you! Thank you for your encouragement. Are you also running for office this time? Which position are you running for?"

Bai Fan smiled and said casually, "I'm running for student council president, so cheer me on later!"

Bai Fan's smile was very infectious, which made Mu Mu feel much more relaxed.

However, Mu Mu was a little confused. The student council president must have a certain level of strength to be elected. Bai Fan's strength was at the bottom in the support department. Why did he want to run for president?

However, Mu Mu thought about it and realized that it would be nice if the student council had a president like that, who was kind to everyone and brought warmth to everyone.

Soon, the vote count from the Human Resources Department came out. Mu Mu came in second place, just one vote behind the first place, and unfortunately, he was not elected.

Instead of comforting Mu Mu as expected, Bai Fan shook his head and sighed to himself.

"Alas! The capable are always the ones who are not chosen."

Mu Mu said instead, "It's okay, Senior Bai Fan. I'm only a freshman. I'll have more opportunities in the future. I'll run for election again when I have more experience."

Bai Fan simply smiled without speaking, but this time there was a hint of bitterness in his smile.

The election went exceptionally smoothly, and soon it was the chairman candidates' turn to take the stage and give their speeches.

Everyone who took the stage was elegant and dignified, making it difficult for those holding the vote to make a decision.

Finally, it was Bai Fan's turn to take the stage.

He stepped onto the stage with his confident and sunny smile.

"Hello everyone, I'm Bai Fan, a third-year student in the auxiliary engineering department. Although my name is 'Fan' (meaning ordinary), I don't want to be ordinary. Today I'm running for student council president..."

Bai Fan's speech had barely begun when the audience erupted in boos. Someone who had spent three years in university without achieving anything was now running for president. Nobody knew how he even got into the student council.

Although Bai Fan's abilities were mediocre, his speeches were truly excellent. However, no matter how good a speech was, no one in the audience was impressed.

"I have helped countless students, and I believe that is the most powerful proof of my election as president, not my ability."

Another round of boos erupted from the audience. Many people thought Bai Fan was too naive. In this era, how can you talk about strength without considering its importance?

Until the end of the speech, only Mu Mu applauded Bai Fan. Mu Mu later felt a little embarrassed and stopped applauding.

On the contrary, there are many people discussing it.

After all the candidates finished their speeches, it was time to vote. This round of vote counting took a long time, with staff checking the votes three times to ensure everything was correct.

When the final votes were tallied, Bai Fan only had two votes. One was from Mu Mu, which he had seen, and the other was... his own vote.

The host announced loudly, "This election has come to a successful conclusion. Congratulations to He Qingyun on his election as chairman!"

A deafening roar of cheers erupted from the audience, with everyone clapping with all their might.

Regardless of who was elected just now, now that the results are in, everyone must support the new chairman. Otherwise, if the new chairman sees that someone didn't applaud, they'll be in big trouble.

The host's voice rang out again.

"Next, please welcome our former chairman to speak."

The former chairman took the microphone and said emotionally, "I went from being an ordinary student council member to a minister, and then to chairman. Now it's time for me to step down. Along the way, I..."

After a passionate speech, the old chairman took off his name tag and handed it to He Qingyun.

He Qingyun accepted the name tag with both hands, her face full of reverence; it represented the highest honor of the student council.

He carefully put his name tag on his chest, stood tall, and looked down at the audience.

The audience responded with applause.

The host then said, "With the changing of the guard, let's hear from our new chairman, He Qingyun, about his feelings at this moment."

He Qingyun took the microphone and said, "First of all, I want to thank you all for your support along the way..."

Applause erupted again from the audience, but a sudden voice broke the silence.

"etc!!!"

These words were spoken by Bai Fan. At this moment, Mu Mu looked at Bai Fan, who was full of anger, and felt a little scared.
