Ye Linchen compromised and came up with a solution that would benefit both sides.
"How about this, the boys will be in charge of carrying the books, and the girls will be in charge of distributing the books they brought back according to the number of people. This way, both boys and girls can contribute. What do you all think?"
Zhong Yiyun nodded: "Okay, it's settled then!"
Luo Yuanbing also supported this, saying, "No one loses out, and no one benefits. I have no objection."
Sun Xueyong was still a little unhappy, glaring at Luo Yuanbing: "Whose side are you on?"
Luo Yuanbing smiled good-naturedly: "I'll stand in the middle. We're all classmates, there's no need to create conflict."
Seeing Sun Xue's courage, Ye Linchen said, "How about we vote by raising our hands? The minority should obey the majority. Raise your hand if you agree!"
He then raised his hand first.
Except for Sun Xueyong, all the other students raised their hands along with her.
The plan was thus approved.
Sun Xueyong had nothing more to say, but his eyes clearly showed resentment as he looked at Ye Linchen.
Ye Linchen ignored him and made the announcement directly.
"Meet at the school gate at eight o'clock tomorrow morning to pick up your books together!"
After the meeting, Ye Linchen and Li Hongying returned to their dormitory together.
Li Hongying said with dissatisfaction, "Sun Xueyong looks dark and strong, but he's more petty than a young wife. He's so calculating. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to get along in the future."
Ye Linchen also had a bit of a headache with Sun Xueyong, who was loud and had many opinions.
However, Luo Yuanbing and Zhong Yiyun are reasonable people, so Sun Xueyong is not a threat.
Just as she was about to persuade Li Hongying not to be angry with him, she saw Lin Xiaojuan and Feng Linlin walking over hand in hand.
Lin Xiaojuan is in the Computer Science Department, and Feng Linlin is in the Medical School. The two departments are far apart, and their dormitories are also far apart, so it's not easy for them to get together.
"Xiao Chen, it really is you! Lin Lin saw you from afar. I was wondering what a coincidence it was!" Lin Xiaojuan said with a delighted smile.
"We just finished a class meeting."
"Let's go for a walk together."
"Okay."
As soon as Ye Linchen agreed, Li Hongying immediately said tactfully, "You guys go ahead and shop, I'll go back to my dorm to pack my things."
Ye Linchen said goodbye to her and then continued to stroll around the campus with Feng Linlin and Lin Xiaojuan.
"By the way, Xiao Chen, what fun clubs are there in your finance department?" Feng Linlin asked curiously.
“I heard from our advisor that the debate club and Model United Nations will both have presentations the day after tomorrow, which sounds quite interesting,” Lin Xiaojuan said quickly.
"Debate club? Model United Nations?" Ye Linchen blinked. "How about we go check it out the day after tomorrow?" Ye Linchen suggested.
"Okay, okay!" Lin Xiaojuan and Feng Linlin agreed in unison.
The three hit it off immediately and agreed to go to the club's promotional event together the day after tomorrow.
Seeing that it was almost time, Ye Linchen said goodbye to Feng Linlin and Lin Xiaojuan and returned to her dormitory.
As soon as Ye Linchen pushed open the door, she found the dormitory unusually quiet, so quiet that she immediately sensed something was wrong.
Wang Lina and Lin Xuemei, usually the most active girls, sat on their beds with their heads drooping and without saying a word.
Li Hongying and Zhou Xiaoyan sat beside them, their brows furrowed in worry.
What happened?
Ye Linchen put the things on the desk in front of his bed and asked Lin Xuemei curiously.
"What's wrong? Who upset you?"
Lin Xuemei gestured towards the door with her chin, clearly dissatisfied.
"It's all Zhang Tingting's fault! Today, their class held an election for class monitor. She wanted to be the class monitor, but she didn't get elected. Lina, on the other hand, was elected. As soon as she got back, she started venting her anger on Lina, and she kept being sarcastic and mean."
Ye Linchen frowned.
Zhang Tingting came from the military region. She was quite pretty and dressed fashionably, but she was too arrogant and thought everyone should give way to her.
The first thing he did upon arrival today was to order Ye Linchen to give up her bed, but Ye Linchen retorted.
However, Wang Lina may seem warm and generous on the surface, but she's probably not someone to be trifled with, and Zhang Tingting may not get the better of her.
Sure enough, Lin Xuemei said excitedly, "Lina is no pushover either. She directly retorted, saying that just because she came from a military compound, she thinks she's superior, but she has no real skills. The masses have discerning eyes, and she deserves not to be elected class monitor."
Lin Xuemei vividly described the scene of the argument between the two, with a hint of schadenfreude on her face.
"Zhang Tingting got angry and scolded us for being country bumpkins who had never seen the world."
Ye Linchen curled the corners of his mouth, looking disdainful.
What era are we living in? Why are we still engaging in regional discrimination?
It's likely that Zhang Tingting is the one who's never seen the world; she's just used to living in the compound and uses that to boost her sense of superiority.
"Lina didn't give her any face and asked her directly, 'If you've seen the world, why did you come to this poor, remote university? Either you're not doing well, or you're just a country bumpkin. Nobody should look down on anyone else.'"
Lin Xuemei stood up and mimicked Wang Lina perfectly, pouting as she spoke to Ye Linchen, then rolling her eyes at the ceiling.
Wang Lina laughed and tapped her with the book in her hand.
"Do I look that harsh? Don't try to ruin my image!"
Lin Xuemei waved her hand at her: "It's not meanness, it's incredibly cool, incredibly satisfying. Ask Xiaoyan if you don't believe me."
Zhou Xiaoyan nodded, but there was no smile on her face.
Ye Linchen said regretfully, "It's a pity I came back too late and missed the scene."
"Yes, if we had come back a little earlier, we would have seen Zhang Tingting crying her eyes out because Lina was making her angry."
"What happened next? Where did Zhang Tingting go?" Ye Linchen asked.
"Where else could she have gone? She ran out to complain, saying that the people in our dorm ganged up on her and that she wanted to go to the counselor to seek justice. She hasn't come back yet."
