Chapter 2148 - 499: Daughter-in-Law Graduates, Of Course I Must Come
Gu Mochen’s opening speech ignited the enthusiasm of the graduation ceremony.
Jian Ran and Mu Wan could easily feel the emotional excitement of the graduates around them.
Graduating from university and starting work truly means entering society.
It also means that friends and classmates from the past four years will need to part ways, each going their own direction.
After all, students at a university come from all corners of the country, from various places...
Returning to their respective homes for work afterwards, really means little contact in the future.
So, honestly speaking, the time spent together is becoming less and less.
Those who were once closest may very rarely see each other again in the future.
...
After the opening speech, it was the speech by Yun University’s principal. Usually, the principal didn’t get much good will from everyone, but today was different.
The crowd listened quietly, giving applause from time to time, showing support for the principal’s work...
Until the principal finished speaking and the venue became lively again.
The principal couldn’t help but jokingly say: "Oh, if only you were this obedient earlier—each and every one of you so rebellious, it’s really irritating."
Everyone chuckled softly, and as they laughed, their eyes couldn’t help but glisten with tears.
Thinking deeply, activities like group morning runs may seem rigorous in the cold winter, but they were actually for our health.
And many school activities, when carefully considered, were well-intentioned.
Our youthful arrogance, coupled with occasional rebelliousness, led to a confrontational attitude towards the school.
...
After the principal’s speech, it was time for the graduates’ work showcase.
Each department’s dean would send a student as a representative.
After the graduates had showcased their works, it was the excellent graduates’ evaluation by Yun University.
Among thousands of students, successfully selecting ten...
Being an excellent graduate signifies recognition of one’s university career and also means greater advantages in employment, so every graduate put in their best effort, hoping to earn that recognition.
...
Mu Wan was chosen to showcase the arts school’s graduation works. Her sketches have garnered acclaim domestically and internationally, always well-received, making her undoubtedly a standout in this cohort.
Initially, people’s impression of her was mainly as the young mistress of the Qin Family; now, they increasingly admire her work and character.
Throughout her time at school, Mu Wan’s character has always been praised.
Undeterred and patient, treating teachers and classmates consistently over the years.
Quiet like a lily, always speaking through her works.
...
After the first dozen graduates had exhibited their works, thunderous applause erupted from the crowd, and the host took the mic to speak.
"Now, let’s welcome Mu Wan, the graduate representative from the arts school, to showcase her graduation work for everyone."
Old Mr. Qin was seated in the audience, feeling excited.
Granddaughter-in-law... Granddaughter-in-law.
So thrilling.
Mr. and Mrs. Qin were also excited, right now their daughter-in-law was stepping onto the stage, feeling even more excited than when their son did.
Jian Ran and Hua Nuan were busy taking beautiful photos for her.
Mu Wan looked stunning in her cap and gown.
The loose gown also conveniently covered her rounded belly... making her appear very much like a student.
As she walked onto the stage, media reporters below were frantically capturing shots, though thankfully the Qin Family had arranged many special forces to maintain order and prevent chaos.
...
Holding the scroll in her hands, Mu Wan stepped onto the stage, her beautiful eyes gazing at the crowd below, and a gentle smile curved her lips.
"I am honored to stand here today as the arts school’s graduate representative to showcase my graduation work. At this very moment, as a senior about to graduate, to be honest, my feelings are a bit mixed—a little happiness, some sadness, a bit at a loss, yet also hopeful about the future."
It had been a while since she was last on stage, previously feeling nervous.
Perhaps because of the pregnancy and impending graduation, Mu Wan felt much more relaxed, her expression filled with a smile.
"Well, there are a few thoughts I have... Like, after graduation, I think I won’t be able to find such a cheap dorm anywhere else."
The crowd chuckled lightly at her words.
Mu Wan then explained earnestly: "Hmm, it has a private bathroom, balcony, hallway, bed and desk... A tiny apartment level, costing only 1200 a year, averaging just 100 per month, so really, you can’t find such a deal."
