Chapter 202 Class Meeting & Election
Chapter 202 Class Meeting & Election
When everyone in Dormitory 303 packed up and prepared to leave for the classroom, Gu Qingyu didn't see the Yuan sisters. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where are Yuan Lu and the others?"
Hearing this, Su Yue explained to Gu Qingyu, "Like you, he has been back home for the past two days. He hasn't come to the dormitory yet, so he probably went straight to the classroom."
Gu Qingyu nodded in understanding and said, "In that case, let's hurry to the classroom."
Sure enough, when Zhao Ran arrived at the classroom, he saw the Yuan sisters already sitting in the front row, chatting and laughing with students from other dormitories.
At this time, the classroom was almost full. Seeing this, several people found seats and sat down, waiting for the counselor to come in for a meeting.
Counselor Zhu Wenzhe walked into the classroom on time at the 8 o'clock bell. Without any nonsense, he stood on the podium and began to introduce himself.
"Hello everyone! I'm Zhu Wenzhe, the counselor for Economics Class 2. I hope we can get along happily over the next four years!"
"Starting from the first row, from left to right, each student will come up to the stage and give a brief self-introduction."
As he said that, Zhu Wenzhe gave up the podium, looked at the boy on the far left of the first row, and motioned him to come up to the stage.
Zhang Heng didn't expect that the counselor would call his name first. He stood on the podium, looking at the people below, feeling a little confused for a moment. He stammered for a long time and didn't know what to say.
Zhu Wenzhe also noticed that the boy might be shy, so he encouraged him, "Don't be nervous, just start by introducing yourself and where you're from!"
With Zhu Wenzhe's reminder, Zhang Heng knew what to say, so he stammered and began to introduce himself.
"Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Heng, and I'm from Qingyang City, Long Province. I'm very happy to be your classmate!" As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for the classmates to applaud and welcome him, Zhang Heng ran down the podium as if escaping.
When the next students introduced themselves, many shy students followed Zhang Heng's template.
After all, such people are a minority. Most people can introduce themselves confidently after going on stage. Occasionally, there are a few particularly lively and cheerful students who do not forget to make humorous self-deprecation when introducing themselves, making everyone laugh.
When it was Gu Qingyu's turn, she didn't show off too much. She just briefly introduced herself and prepared to walk down from the podium.
Soon all the students in the class had finished introducing themselves, and everyone had a preliminary understanding of the people in the class.
At this time, Zhu Wenzhe once again stood on the podium and said to the students below, "I believe that everyone has gained a preliminary understanding of the students in our class through my self-introduction just now."
"Now, let's elect the class committee members for Economics Class 2. Students interested in running for office, please come to the stage and give a speech. Students will vote anonymously based on the content of their speeches to ultimately elect our class committee members!"
As soon as these words came out, the students below immediately exploded. Dong Wenjun was sitting next to Gu Qingyu. She asked Gu Qingyu, "Qingyu, do you want to run for election?"
Gu Qingyu shook her head when she heard that. She was not interested in running for class leader, but if it was a student union election, she would be somewhat interested in running.
"You said I should run for the position of Arts and Culture Committee Member. Do you think it's okay?" Dong Wenjun bit her lip and asked Gu Qingyu in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyu looked at Dong Wenjun in surprise, not understanding why she was asking him. Couldn't anyone run for election?
"Well... if you want to run for election, just raise your hand and go on stage to give a speech later!"
"If you have any talents or performance experience, you can also tell us about it. That should add extra points!" Gu Qingyu suggested to Dong Wenjun.
Dong Wenjun mumbled in response, "Um, so that's it!" After that, the other party didn't talk to Gu Qingyu again.
The other party stopped talking, so Gu Qingyu turned his gaze back to the podium and watched other people's speeches.
After the class monitor and deputy class monitor were elected, Gu Qingyu turned her head again and found that Dong Wenjun was chatting very enthusiastically with the girl next to her.
Gu Qingyu didn't care much about this. After all, he really didn't understand the thoughts of an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl!
The other class leaders were quickly elected, and finally only the arts and culture committee member was left.
Gu Qingyu thought the election would be over soon, but she didn't expect that five people would run for election, and Dong Wenjun and Yuan Lu from their dormitory even participated.
Dong Wenjun looked at the other candidates who stood up. Except for Yuan Lu, the other three seemed to have no competitiveness. In this case, only Yuan Lu could compete with her.
"Qingyu, will you vote for me later?" Dong Wenjun stood up and suddenly asked Gu Qingyu before going on stage.
"Ah?" Gu Qingyu looked up at Dong Wenjun in surprise, not knowing what she meant by asking this question.
Seeing Gu Qingyu looking at her with a puzzled expression, Dong Wenjun looked at Gu Qingyu aggrievedly and asked, "You are not going to vote for Yuan Lu, are you?"
Gu Qingyu looked at Dong Wenjun's tearful expression, held her forehead and thought to herself: How could her roommate act like a white lotus? I never saw it before!
"Ah, what should I do? You are all my roommates?" Gu Qingyu asked back.
"In that case, I might as well vote for someone else!"
Gu Qingyu's unconventional tactics made Dong Wenjun stunned!
Seeing this, Gu Qingyu curled the corners of her lips slightly, and then pretended to be concerned and urged, "Wenjun, hurry up and get on stage, we're waiting for you alone!"
"Ah?" Dong Wenjun turned her head and found that everyone was waiting for her, so she didn't bother to continue talking to Gu Qingyu and had to hurriedly stand on the podium.
The five people on the stage gave speeches in turn. Compared with the other three, Dong Wenjun and Yuan Lu not only knew how to play a variety of musical instruments, but also had experience in performing on stage.
If I really have to choose, these two are really evenly matched!
Gu Qingyu looked at Dong Wenjun and Yuan Lu on the stage. They glanced at each other, with hostility in their eyes. They snorted at each other and looked away.
At this time, counselor Zhu Wenzhe urged, "Several students have finished their campaign speeches, now it's time to vote!"
After waiting for two or three minutes, Zhu Wenzhe asked someone to carry the ballot box down and vote one by one.
There were only fifty people in the class, and the voting results were quickly counted. Dong Wenjun and Yuan Lu tied with 18 votes each.
No one had expected this result. Zhu Wenzhe had no choice but to organize another vote and let everyone choose between Dong Wenjun and Yuan Lu.
Gu Qingyu had just experienced Dong Wenjun's behavior. In order to avoid any other incidents in the future, she directly wrote a waiver on the paper!
Because of one abstention, the final result was that Yuan Lu won with a one-vote advantage of 25:24.
After all the class leaders had been selected, Zhu Wenzhe announced to everyone, "You will undergo a two-week military training. After today's class meeting, you will prepare your daily necessities. The school will organize a group to pick you up and take you to the military camp at 2 pm!"
"Oh!" The students groaned in pain when they heard this. The weather in September is still very hot. It would be difficult to go to military training at this time!
"I need to emphasize to everyone that once you arrive at the barracks, all actions and arrangements must be under the command of the instructors. No one is allowed to act on their own."
"Once discovered, there will be disciplinary action. Please keep it in mind!" Zhu Wenzhe warned everyone with a serious expression.
"I understand!" The students answered in unison. Since the counselor reminded them again and again, they would naturally take it to heart.
After the class meeting, the students hurried back to pack their luggage. However, the atmosphere in dormitory 303 was not very good!
As soon as Dong Wenjun returned to the dormitory, she fell heavily on the bed and sat there with a sullen face. Seeing this, others looked at each other, not knowing whether they should go up to comfort her!
After all, the other winner was also a roommate in a dormitory, so it would be inappropriate to handle this matter any way.
Yuan Lu won the election and was in a good mood. Seeing Dong Wenjun making a face, she would not tolerate her.
"Oh! Some people, they come back and put on a bad face just because they failed to be elected as work cadres. It's really funny. If you can't afford to lose, don't go on stage to run for election!" Yuan Lu glanced at Dong Wenjun and said in a sarcastic tone.
"You!" Dong Wenjun stood up angrily after hearing that, and looked at Yuan Lu, saying "you" for a long time without saying a word.
Yuan Lu looked at Dong Wenjun's angry expression, snorted disdainfully, turned around and went to pack her luggage with her cousin.
Seeing this, the others touched their noses awkwardly, not knowing what to say for a moment, so they could only pretend nothing had happened and busy themselves with the things at hand.
Dong Wenjun looked at the busy figures of others and suddenly broke down and cried.
She walked a few steps to Gu Qingyu's side and asked with a choked voice, "Qingyu, tell me, who did you vote for?"
Gu Qingyu looked at Dong Wenjun standing in front of her with a headache, not understanding why the other party had targeted her?
"No one voted!" Gu Qingyu said impatiently.
“Why don’t you vote for me?”
Gu Qingyu asked back, "Why should I vote for you?"
Dong Wenjun's eyes widened upon hearing this. She looked at Gu Qingyu with a look of "Why are you like this?" and said, "But... I already told you to vote for me!"
Gu Qingyu glanced at Dong Wenjun and said calmly, "Well, you did say it! But I didn't agree either!"
"I have the final say on how to vote, and no one else has the right to interfere!" After saying that, Gu Qingyu lowered his head to pack his luggage and no longer paid attention to Dong Wenjun beside him.
Meanwhile, Yuan Lu, who was eavesdropping openly on the side, chuckled out loud.
"Oh my god! I really learned a lot today."
Seeing that her cousin was about to continue talking, Yuan Man gently tugged at her sleeve and whispered in Yuan Lu's ear, "Lulu, stop talking. Be careful, even an anxious rabbit can bite you. I don't think Dong Wenjun is a broad-minded person. Be careful!"
Yuan Lu was still able to listen to her cousin's advice. Seeing this, she snorted lightly and stopped talking.
Except for Dong Wenjun who was still standing there stupidly, everyone else was packing their luggage silently, and dormitory 303 suddenly became quiet!
Dong Wenjun stood there for a long time but no one came to comfort her, so she had to reluctantly sit back down beside the bed, sulking inwardly.
In fact, Yang Shengnan and others are not really cold people, but they have figured out Dong Wenjun's personality in the past two days.
It’s okay to ignore her now, but once you go up to her and try to persuade her, it’s all over!
Dong Wenjun will act out in front of you, crying silently and unable to speak, and she won't be able to stop for an hour or two!
That's why people like Yang Shengnan pretended not to see it and packed their luggage on their own.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the newly appointed deputy monitor Yunxia came over with a list, knocked on the door one by one, and informed everyone to gather on the playground at half past one on time, and then left.
Gu Qingyu knew that the military training had officially begun from this moment. Seeing Dong Wenjun still unpacking her luggage, she had to remind her, "We'll be gathering in half an hour. Let's all check our luggage and pack up anything we've left behind!"
Gu Qingyu said this not out of kindness, but because their dormitory as a whole knew that if Dong Wenjun made a mistake, they would also be punished, so she had to remind her.
Dong Wenjun had been fuming for the entire afternoon, and seeing that no one came out to comfort her, she felt embarrassed. With Gu Qingyu's words, she took the opportunity to back down.
Seeing that Dong Wenjun was already packing her luggage, the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
When the people from dormitory 303 arrived at the designated location with their luggage, the playground was already full of people.
Xin Shuang looked at the playground full of people and asked Yang Shengnan, "Sister Shengnan... where is our class team?"
Yang Shengnan shook her head when she heard that. "Yunxia didn't seem to say anything. I just said to gather at the playground!"
Su Yue heard this and said, "Then we can only go and find them one by one!"
There was no particularly good solution at this time, so Gu Qingyu and the others had to carry their luggage and look for them one by one. Finally, they found the Economics Class 2 team in the middle of the playground.
Yunxia stood at the front of the team. Seeing Gu Qingyu and the others pushing their way over, she waved and said, "Hurry, hurry, they're here!"
"I was worried you wouldn't be able to find your location, so I was just about to send someone outside to meet you, but I didn't expect you to find me first!"
After walking such a short distance, the people in dormitory 303 were already out of breath.
Yang Shengnan held her leg with one hand and said to Yunxia while panting, "Our class is located in the middle, it's really hard to find. You'd better send someone to meet us outside."
Yunxia nodded when she heard that. "I know. Hurry up and line up. The instructor will be here soon."
Upon hearing this, the people in dormitory 303 stood up straight, carried their luggage, walked to the middle of the line, and lined up, waiting for the instructor to come.
