Early in the morning, a light drizzle began to fall as Chen Ze and his three friends walked together toward the classroom.
In the first class of the finance class at eight o'clock in the morning, counselor Cai Chunfen asked all the students to give a brief self-introduction, followed by the election of class monitor.
Chen Ze had no interest in running for class monitor. Although being a class monitor in college could help his career, he had no intention of pursuing that path. Now reborn, he only wanted to make money and enjoy life.
To his surprise, the elegant girl who scratched his car was actually in the same class as him. Through her self-introduction, he learned that the girl's name was Wang Siyu.
She was one of the candidates for class monitor, along with Zhou Zhiyong and Luo Caixia. There were three candidates in total. Next, all the students voted, and whoever got the most votes would become the class monitor.
Luo Caixia is also youthful and beautiful with a slender figure, but unfortunately, she is completely overshadowed by Wang Siyu in terms of temperament.
Given that there were mostly boys in the classroom, almost 98% of the boys voted for Wang Siyu.
As expected, Wang Siyu won the position of class monitor, Zhou Zhiyong received the second most votes and became the vice class monitor, and Luo Caixia became the academic representative.
After being elected as a class committee member, the day's classes officially began. After class, Chen Ze was about to leave when Wang Siyu called him back.
"Hey, Chen Ze, wait a minute."
Chen Ze turned to look at her, somewhat puzzled: "Class monitor, is something wrong?"
Wang Siyu walked up to him, tilted her head slightly, and said, "Thank you for what happened last time. You didn't make me lose money."
Chen Ze smiled and said, "It's nothing, a minor scratch won't cost much to repair."
Wang Siyu smiled and said, "No matter what, I still want to thank you. To express my gratitude, I'll treat you to a meal in the cafeteria."
"It is my honor to be treated to a meal by the class monitor."
The two went to the cafeteria and found an empty seat. Wang Siyu kept her promise and not only paid for his meal but also gave him an extra chicken leg.
Just as the two sat down, Bai Xue, Deng Chanying, and Liu Ting came over with plates and sat down with them.
"Siyu, is this your relative or friend? He's quite handsome, can you introduce him?" Bai Xue asked.
"Um...no, it's the classmate whose car I accidentally scratched yesterday, whose name is Chen Ze and who is in our class."
Liu Ting's eyes lit up, and she extended her fair hand, smiling, "Hello, Chen Ze, let's get to know each other. My name is Liu Ting."
Chen Ze politely shook hands with her. Suddenly, he felt Liu Ting tickle his palm twice with her fingers. He thought to himself: Is she trying to seduce me?
"Chen Ze, Siyu told me you drive an Audi to school. Did you buy the car yourself? What kind of business does your family run?"
Damn, they're already probing into my background so quickly. Liu Ting and Liang Xiaoman are the same kind of people. He thought for a moment and replied:
“My dad owns a processing plant, which makes around 100,000 yuan a year. The Audi was bought by my dad in the used car market, and he even paid for it on installment.”
Wang Siyu sensed that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Being clever, she didn't interrupt, but instead ate her meal slowly and elegantly.
When Liu Ting heard that it was a used Audi and that it was being paid in installments, and that she only earned a little over 100,000 yuan a year, she was shocked. She wanted the kind of life that comes with being a rich second-generation heir who doesn't have to worry about food or clothing.
In her eyes, earning over 100,000 yuan a year was nothing compared to being a poor loser, because her father owned a supermarket and earned around 300,000 yuan a year.
Bai Xue originally wanted to add Chen Ze on Tencent QQ, but after hearing about his family situation, she decisively gave up.
Afterwards, everyone lowered their heads and ate in silence.
The girls had initially been all smiles at him, but after Chen Ze revealed his family situation, their expressions changed instantly. They couldn't help but sigh, "Are all girls these days so materialistic? It seems none of these girls are any good."
He quickly finished his meal, not even bothering to say goodbye, and got up to leave.
He was stopped by Wang Siyu.
"Chen Ze, please add my QQ number before you leave."
"Squad leader, I forgot to charge my phone last night and it turned off. Let's do it another day. I'll add you another day."
"All right."
Chen Ze was very attentive during both afternoon classes because, at forty years old, he clearly understood the importance of knowledge. He took notes on all the important points the counselor made during class.
During evening self-study, he searched for well-known headhunting companies in Shenzhen on his notebook and quickly found a headhunting company called Gao Nan.
He added the business manager's QQ number and then sent a message to the other party: Hello, I would like to recruit a CEO senior professional manager. How much does your company charge?
Business Manager: Our company's fee standard is 20% of the annual salary of a professional manager.
Chen Ze: I accept your quote. I also need five IT programmers and a professional accountant/financer. Could you please help me with that?
Business Manager: Sure, the fee for this kind of technical staff is 10% of their annual salary.
Chen Ze: Okay, let me know if there's any news.
"..."
Next, the school began a two-week military training program. All the students in the class started wearing loose camouflage uniforms, while the girls prepared sunscreen for themselves well in advance.
To maintain a presentable appearance, Chen Ze bought a bottle of sunscreen and also picked up a bottle of mineral water at a convenience store on his way.
Under the blazing sun, on the football field, the finance class team stood at attention, motionless, sweat dripping down Chen Ze's face and into his mouth, tasting a bit salty.
Standing at attention is the best way to train a person's willpower. It can eliminate a person's restlessness. Some students have come up with all sorts of ways to avoid military training. Most of them pretend to be sick and pay to get medical records from the hospital.
Chen Ze stood for forty minutes, gritting his teeth and persevering. Suddenly, a male classmate next to him collapsed from heatstroke. The instructor reacted quickly, rushing forward to support him and preventing him from falling and getting injured.
The instructors called the school's medical staff to carry the student to the infirmary. Then, another female student in the group couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
Seeing that some people were fainting one after another, the instructor decided to give them a 20-minute rest. He raised his left hand to look at his watch, and then said loudly, "You lasted for 42 minutes, which is very good. Next time, I hope you can reach an hour. Now rest for 20 minutes."
Upon hearing that they could rest, everyone felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off their shoulders, and they plopped down on the ground.
Wang Siyu was extremely thirsty, her throat felt like it was on fire. She wanted to buy a bottle of water to quench her thirst, but she found that her legs were trembling as she walked, and she felt like her legs weren't even her own.
Therefore, she could only sit down and rest for a while, rubbing her legs with both hands.
Just then, a bottle of mineral water was handed to her. She looked up at the boy who gave her the water and saw that it was Chen Ze. Wang Siyu happily took the water.
"Thanks."
She quickly unscrewed the bottle cap and then gulped it down.
"Drink slowly, be careful not to choke," Chen Ze said with concern.
At this moment, all the male classmates in the class were staring intently at Chen Ze. If looks could kill, he would probably be covered in wounds by now.
