Chapter 578: People Are Always Jealous Of the Big Boss

Gu Mang changed her posture. Leaning back against her seat, she looked at the teaching a.s.sistant and simply said, “You can let other students have this chance.”

What she meant was that she refused to become the cla.s.s rep. Everyone was confused as to why she turned down such a golden opportunity. One could reap a lot of benefits if they got onto the teachers’ good sides, and yet she turned it down without hesitation.

“Alright. In that case, we’ll choose…” Seeing how Gu Mang was reluctant to be the cla.s.s rep, the teaching a.s.sistant did not force her. Instead, she turned back to the blackboard to check which student had the second-highest number of votes. She then looked in Su Jiaying’s direction and asked, “Su Jiaying, are you willing to be the cla.s.s rep?”

Su Jiaying did not respond to the question right away. Turning her head, she looked behind and asked in a seemingly joking tone, “Are you sure you don’t want to be the cla.s.s rep? This is a rare opportunity, so don’t blame me for stealing it in the future.”

Looking expressionless, Gu Mang hummed an acknowledgment, which made Su Jiaying curl her lips in satisfaction.

Once the cla.s.s rep was selected, they proceeded to select the cla.s.s secretary and the subject reps. The compet.i.tion was just as fierce as before, so the meeting ended half an hour later. Afterward, Su Jiaying led the entire cla.s.s to the sports hall to collect their military training equipment.

Zheng Miao stared at the items in her hands for a good while and swallowed before turning to look at Gu Mang and the rest. “They’re serious about this.” The camouflage backpacks, camouflage training uniforms, caps, and shoes were all issued to army standard.

Tang Xiaoxiao felt her throat tightening as she nodded in agreement. “I’ve heard some things about our university’s military training. It’s quite sick.”

The guy, who had previously voted Gu Mang as cla.s.s rep, walked over to her while carrying his things. “Gu Mang, do you find the items heavy? Do you want me to help you carry them?”

She politely replied, “It’s fine. Thank you.”

He blushed at her refusal but that did not deter him from continuing to ask, “C-Can I… add you on WeChat?”

“Sure.” She then clicked into the app to let him scan her code. When several of their male cla.s.smates noticed this, they all came flocking over to add her as their friend as well. Su Jiaying pursed her lips at this sight.

It was quite crowded in the sports hall, much to Gu Mang’s annoyance. Tugging her cap down with her cool fingers, she informed Tang Xiaoxiao and the rest, “I’ll wait for you outside.”

“Okay,” the girls responded in unison.

With the backpack slung on her shoulders, she walked out of the sports hall while carrying her training uniform in one hand. She found herself a secluded spot and lazily leaned against the wall to play a mobile game. Just then, she heard a voice. “There you are, Gu Mang.”

She looked up and saw the counselor walking toward her. She straightened her posture and greeted her. “h.e.l.lo, counselor.”

The counselor nodded as she stopped before her. “A student representative is supposed to give a speech at the start of the military training tomorrow. Since you entered the university with full marks, the university wants you to be the student representative.”

Gu Mang gave no response, which made the counselor ask, “What’s wrong? Are you not willing to do it?”

“Can we get someone else instead?”

“Who else can we get? You’re the only one who scored full marks on all subjects.” The counselor looked at her blankly before breaking out into laughter when she saw how the student went speechless. She patted Gu Mang’s shoulder rea.s.suringly. “No need to be nervous. We’ll be reusing last year’s speech, so you won’t have to write one.”

Said speech was seven years old now.

Gu Mang lifted an eyebrow and acquiesced to the request. “Okay.”

The counselor took out the prepared speech from the folder she brought with her. “Go read the speech tonight to familiarize yourself with it.”

Su Jiaying and the other two girls saw this scene when they exited the sports hall.
