Even without saying a word, Bai Jiaojiao's looks and demeanor were enough to excite the students below.

Some even started whistling, only stopping after Hou Zhilin glared at them.

"Hello everyone, I'm Bai Jiaojiao..."

Bai Jiaojiao was also raised in a wealthy family, and with her past life experiences, she is no less knowledgeable than Chen Meizhen.

When Chen Meizhen saw that Bai Jiaojiao had stolen her thunder, her face turned very ugly.

Xu Yue casually remarked to Shu Manling, "Some people are born to attract attention, while others, no matter how outrageous they are, can never catch up with them. Manling, don't you agree?"

Shu Manling tucked a stray hair behind her ear and gave an awkward smile.

Chen Meizhen tried her best to pretend she hadn't heard anything and acted indifferently; she didn't want to take it personally.

After the female students finished introducing themselves, the male students also stood up to introduce themselves. Some were lively, while others were steady and introverted. There were only twenty-one students in the class.

Following the requirements issued by the college, Teacher Huang Shifeng held a class meeting for everyone, offered some encouragement, and said, "My office is on the second floor of the college building, the second door on the left. My name is posted on it. You are welcome to come and ask me for help if you need anything."

Teacher Huang Shifeng has not yet been promoted to a professional title and is only a lecturer.

Teachers with some achievements in their department are so sought after by major hospitals in Yancheng that they are practically begging to sit in their clinics. Let alone mentoring a bunch of clueless freshmen, even their own personal disciples might not be able to get a chance to see them whenever they want.

However, being a lecturer has its advantages. Their research tasks are relatively light, and they don't have as much to do. As the head teacher of an administrative class, they have more time to take care of the students.

After Huang Shifeng finished speaking, he glanced at Hou Zhilin, indicating that he could start the election.

It's winter time now, and he was supposed to leave work at five o'clock, but he was still working overtime here because of the class meeting, and he was in a hurry to go home.

Hou Zhilin wrote on the blackboard: Youth League Branch Secretary, Class Monitor, Deputy Class Monitor, Study Committee Member, Cultural and Sports Committee Member, Hygiene Committee Member.

"If there are any Party members in our class, they can have priority in running for the position of secretary of the Youth League branch, but Youth League members are also encouraged to run. We will elect one male and one female hygiene monitor, who will be mainly responsible for supervising the hygiene of the dormitory. The hygiene inspection results at the college and school levels are also closely related to the honor of our class. I won't say anything more. Now, anyone who has an idea can come up on stage and write their name below if they want to run for anything."

Chen Meizhen was the first to go up on the stage. Her handwriting on the blackboard was very neat, and she wrote her name under "Class Monitor".

Xu Yue nudged Bai Jiaojiao with her elbow from below: "Why don't you go up and choose one later?"

Bai Jiaojiao wouldn't take on such trivial matters for herself. The class monitor in college is not the same as the one in high school, especially in the freshman year, when there are twice as many things to do as other students.

She considered herself not smart enough, and getting into Yenching University was not the end goal; she needed to focus all her energy on studying.

Seeing Bai Jiaojiao shake her head, Xu Yue slammed her hand on the table: "If you won't choose, I'll choose!"

Xu Yue was determined to oppose Chen Meizhen. Even though Chen Meizhen's campaign speech had a very strong impact on the public, she still went ahead with the campaign despite her reluctance.

In the end, Chen Meizhen was elected class monitor in a secret ballot, and of course, she lost to Chen Meizhen.

The other positions were all filled by male students, and there were few girls. Hou Zhilin looked at them with difficulty: "We haven't chosen a female hygiene monitor yet. Bai Jiaojiao, would you like to take on this role? Anyway, there's only one dorm of girls in our class, so you can just do your job well."

Bai Jiaojiao paused for a moment, wondering if refusing now would make people think she was unwilling to contribute to the group.

Fortunately, although Xu Yue was not elected class monitor, she was still determined. She raised her hand and said, "If no one else wants to be me, I'm willing!"

"Then it's you."

Hou Zhilin noticed Bai Jiaojiao's predicament and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed with himself.

Xu Yue felt that no matter how high or low the rank, it was still an official position, and it would be good if he could be superior to Chen Meizhen in some aspect.

The students who were elected as class officers stayed behind for a class committee meeting, while the other students were dismissed and returned to their dormitories.

When Bai Jiaojiao returned to her dormitory, she saw Shen Heng waiting downstairs. She said goodbye to her roommates and told them to go up first, then walked towards Shen Heng and asked, "Did you receive any news today?"

"Yes, that lady has already made arrangements and asked us to go see the house this Saturday noon," Shen Heng said.

The two walked hand in hand toward the phone booth. Before they left, they told their families to wait at the brigade headquarters that night for their call.

Bai Jiaojiao dialed the number for Shili Village and breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the call connected. Luckily, the village didn't lose power tonight.

"Hello! Hello?" Zheng Xu answered the phone excitedly, "Is this Bai Jiaojiao? Say something!"

"Captain, it's me. I'm with Heng-ge. We just had our opening ceremony today. Tomorrow, he'll show us around the campus, and classes will officially start the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, I'll have your dad talk to you!"

Bai Jiaojiao heard a lot of noise on the other end, including a child crying. It wasn't Bai Manlin; it must be Bai Shiqing who had brought the child over to wait.

"Hello?"

Upon hearing Bai Zhiman's voice, Bai Jiaojiao asked, "Dad, is everything alright at home?"

"Everything's fine at home. How are you and Shen Heng doing over there? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

"No, I haven't done anything yet since school just started. I've submitted all the required documents, and yesterday I even went with Heng to buy a bicycle."

“Okay, if you don’t have enough money, tell your family and ask your older brother to help you out. Remember, it’s better to be frugal at home than frugal on the road. You can’t get anywhere without money,” Bai Zhiman instructed.
