Onstage at the Shanghai International Studies University auditorium.
A rotation of singing, dancing, comedy, and magic acts took the stage.
The performers were all freshmen, most of whom wanted to showcase their talents and make more like-minded friends.
Of course, there was another reason: to see if they could find someone to date.
After all, once students made the leap from the intense grind of high school to the relatively relaxed atmosphere of college, their hormones would inevitably kick in, making them want to fall in love.
Sun Jialin was no exception.
Growing up, she had been the school beauty at the best high school in her hometown.
Her family was also part of the county's Pusoma Sect.
But the proud and ambitious Sun Jialin refused to settle for that.
She had studied hard to get into a university in Modu, this dazzling and extravagant city. Over the summer, she frantically studied fashion and makeup, transforming herself into a vision of refined beauty.
