She herself wanted to read some books, hoping to find some useful books or dictionaries to study on her own.
"Okay, let's go together at noon." Guo Lili's dejected mood quickly dissipated. She put the textbooks in her desk drawer and prepared for the next class.
Everyone was probably quite discouraged, and they were all listless in the next class.
"What's wrong? Everyone seems a bit lacking in energy. Let's do something interesting."
The political science teacher was also their dean of students. Everyone had seen him when they received their books; his surname was Zhou.
Seeing everyone like this, Director Zhou could guess what was going on. These students had all been transferred here, and there were probably fewer than ten who were truly willing to learn a foreign language.
This lesson will probably be like listening to gibberish, and with Teacher Yu around, even he'll frown. It's normal that everyone is not used to it.
"Let's elect class officers first," Director Zhou said, taking the initiative to start the conversation when he saw that everyone looked uninterested.
"..."
Great, it's quieter now.
“You guys are all pretty good since you were able to get into Peking University. I also know that most of you don’t know much about foreign languages.”
"You may not know, but sitting among you is our top scorer from Peking University. He applied to the Department of Foreign Languages with a score that was just a few points short of the total score."
"What does this mean? It means the Foreign Languages Department is very good, and you should have confidence in yourselves." Director Zhou's words caused everyone to whisper among themselves.
"Who is it? How many points short of the total score? That's impressive!"
"So smart, why did you choose to major in foreign languages? Are you out of your mind?"
"He's definitely not mentally unstable, otherwise how could he have done so well on the test?"
"What top scholar? We have a top scholar in our provincial capital, also at Peking University. He studied business administration."
"Didn't you hear what Director Zhou said? The total score difference is only a few points, but the top scorer in our area has a difference of dozens of points. This exam was so difficult."
"Perhaps the exam papers in Beijing are easier?"
"Bullshit, I'm from Beijing. How is it simple? It's difficult, okay?"
Everyone started discussing it enthusiastically, and the previous lifeless atmosphere was completely gone.
Director Zhou was satisfied, and Su Ti lowered her head further and further, afraid that Director Zhou would call her name.
What you fear most is what happens; no matter how hard Su Ti tried to hide, Director Zhou still pointed it out.
"Since you're so curious, why don't you let Su Ti tell us why she chose to study foreign languages?"
"After all, not only Peking University, but also the admissions office of Huada University approached us, but Su Ti firmly chose our Peking University's Department of Foreign Languages."
Director Zhou's face was full of smiles; he had to make everyone have a good impression of the Foreign Languages Department.
Otherwise, I'm really afraid they won't be able to handle it and will start clamoring to change majors again.
Suti didn't want to stand up. Guo Lili glanced at Suti, her heart burning with excitement. She knew Suti must be very capable.
Under Teacher Zhou's repeated urging, Su Ti stood up awkwardly.
It was only then that everyone realized that their foreign language department actually had such a beautiful female colleague.
"Hello, students." Su Ti looked at Director Zhou, practically begging him to let her go.
"Suti, tell us why you chose the Foreign Languages Department, and what are the advantages of our Foreign Languages Department?"
Director Zhou glanced at Su Ti, knowing she was shy, and looked at her encouragingly, even clapping his hands to give her courage.
"..."
Seeing Teacher Zhou's expression, Su Ti helplessly raised her head.
"Um... I just picked it randomly, I just like Kyoto University." How was Suti supposed to tell everyone how popular foreign languages would be in the future?
It would be even more insincere to say that you like foreign languages. After the crackdown a couple of years ago, who would dare to say that they like foreign languages?
Wouldn't this give people something to talk about? Even if no one is investigating now, Suti can't answer like that.
Director Zhou deliberately mentioned that he had given up other schools and departments to choose the foreign language department despite his high score.
She felt that whatever she said was wrong, so she could only give this seemingly correct answer.
"Anything else?" Director Zhou looked at her expectantly. How could she have just chosen randomly?
"I think Kyoto University is a very good school, and I can't go wrong with either one."
“I am confident in all other departments, but I have no experience with foreign languages. I applied for foreign languages out of curiosity.”
Suti's answer was correct, but the classroom fell into an inexplicable silence for a moment.
What does this mean? Does good grades mean you can be carefree?
"Okay...alright, Su Ti, please have a seat." Director Zhou hadn't expected Su Ti to be so straightforward.
Indeed, with her grades, she could excel in any department, and the foreign language department is indeed very challenging; he could understand that answer.
"Alright, now let's elect class officers. Doing a good job will earn you extra points, which will be recorded in your files and will be helpful when you are assigned a job after graduation."
Seeing that everyone had come to their senses, Director Zhou quickly got down to business.
Everyone sat up straight when they heard Director Zhou's words; they all knew the importance of class leaders.
People nowadays value honor highly, and everyone has a positive and ambitious heart.
Whether it's an individual or a collective honor, they all want it.
Besides the class monitor and academic representative, there's also the labor representative; everyone is vying for each of these positions.
"Suti, aren't you going?" Guo Lili asked, looking down. She was actually quite afraid of trouble.
She felt that since everyone else was going, it wouldn't be right for her not to go either. She turned around and saw that Suti hadn't gone up either.
"I don't want to be a cadre. I might have to go home to live later, so I'll probably spend less time at school than everyone else."
Actually, Suti wasn't interested in these things. Her resume was already impressive enough, so she didn't care much about them.
Furthermore, she is someone who hates trouble and even more afraid of offending people; being a class leader these days is not an easy job.
"Then I won't go either." Guo Lili had a lot of questions to ask Suti. Suti was so smart, being the top scholar.
After the class, Su Ti and Guo Lili were sitting there without moving, and Director Zhou even came up to ask them a question.
When Suti told him that he wanted to devote all his time to studying, he couldn't say anything.
During the election for student council officers, everyone went up to introduce themselves and campaign for votes. Then the whole class voted, which was very fair and just.
I didn't do anything during the whole class; I just listened to their self-introductions. It wasn't until the very end that the class officers were decided.
Except for the class monitor, who is a woman, all other class officers are men.
Suti knew that the class officers at this time had a lot of power, and of course, they also had a lot to worry about.
What impressed Suti the most was the class's arts and culture representative, a curly-haired girl who looked like a doll.
After the selection, he walked off the stage with great pride, looking very smug.
After the class, everyone forgot the disappointment of the foreign language lesson and was now chatting happily.
