Chapter 3: Opening Class Meeting Not long after Jiang Tianhao rushed out of the dormitory, the wake-up bell rang. The two people who were still sleeping soundly in the dormitory also moved, but they just turned over, blocked their ears with pillows, and stopped moving. When Jiang Tianhao came back from washing up, the dormitory manager, Mr. Li, began to check each dormitory one by one. When he saw someone staying in bed, he didn't hesitate to lift the quilt and "You're still sleeping. You're going to be late. Hurry up and get up. I'll come check on you later. If you're still late, don't blame me for notifying your class teacher." Sun Chuan was startled when the quilt was lifted. He quickly sat up and was about to wash up when Jiang Tianhao quickly pulled him back and pointed to a basin of water he had brought. "You two can use this basin of water. There's no more space in the bathroom. There's a drain over on the balcony. Go squat over there and wash up." Seeing Jiang Tianhao being so responsible, Wu Xianyu couldn't help but joked "You are a responsible dormitory head. Why were you so reluctant last night?" "Hey, don't mention it, let's go, let's go eat first, if we go too late the buns will be gone." Jiang Tianhao ignored Wu Xianyu's teasing. He pulled Wu Xianyu's arm and walked out of the dormitory towards the cafeteria. After dinner, the two walked towards the classroom together. When they passed the teacher's office, Wu Xianyu stopped and said to Jiang Tianhao "Please go and save a seat for me. I'll go and give my phone to the teacher." "Okay, I'll go over first." Jiang Tianhao didn't say anything. He waved his hand and strode towards the classroom.
Wu Xianyu looked into the office from the doorway to make sure someone had reached out and knocked on the open door. "Excuse me, is Teacher Zhao Rongbao here?" "Yes, what's up?" Wu Xianyu looked in the direction where the voice came from, and a middle-aged man with a square face and glasses looked up at him. When he stood in front of Zhao Rongbao, Wu Xianyu took out his cell phone and handed it to the teacher. "It's like this, last night the dormitory manager Mr. Li asked me to give you my phone." After hearing Wu Xianyu's explanation, Zhao Rongbao suddenly realized something. He put Wu Xianyu's phone in his pocket and took him out of the office. When facing Wu Xianyu in a place with few people around, he said: "You are Wu Xianyu, right?" Seeing the boy in front of him nod, Zhao Rongbao continued to speak. "Normally, the school prohibits bringing electronic products. I will emphasize this when I go to the classroom, but your situation is special, so I won't prohibit you from using your phone. Just come to me when you need it." After a pause, Zhao Rongbao pressed Wu Xianyu's shoulder and said solemnly "If you need any help with study or life, feel free to contact me. If I can't solve it, I will still help you with the school. Don't keep anything on your mind, you can always talk to me." Wu Xianyu felt the teacher's kindness and was a little touched. He smiled and said "Yeah". Seeing that Wu Xianyu was in good condition, Zhao Rongbao breathed a sigh of relief, patted Wu Xianyu on the shoulder, and a smile appeared on his face. "You are in good condition. I am relieved. Please go back to the classroom first." After separating from Zhao Rongbao, Wu Xianyu was looking for the classroom while sighing that his cheap parents were extraordinary. Although the old man who came to inform him of the news was in casual clothes, his every move showed a military temperament. Now he can even have a say in the top high schools in the country. When the class sign of Grade 1 appeared in his eyes, Wu Xianyu didn't think about anything else and walked in through the front door. The classroom was in chaos. The boys gathered together to talk about games or chase each other in the classroom and corridor. The girls gathered in twos and threes to chat about girlish topics. There was just one exception. Wu Xianyu watched Lin Miaomiao standing on a bench, eating snacks and cheering for the boys who were chasing and playing around, without fear that one of them would fall down. Jiang Tianhao saw Wu Xianyu and immediately separated from the chasing team, with one arm on Wu Xianyu's shoulder. "Did you give your phone to Lao Zhao? Come on, I'll take you to see the place I reserved for you. You'll definitely like it." Jiang Tianhao's smile was not so innocent, but Wu Xianyu didn't notice it. He stretched his head to look at the seats in the classroom and saw that there were still a few empty seats in the last row. His eyes suddenly lit up. As a result, Jiang Tianhao took him directly to an empty seat in the middle and asked Wu Xianyu with a smug look on his face. "How about it? This position is good, right? I'm next to you and in front of you. Hehehe, no need to thank me." Looking at this location that is neither in the village nor in the store, Wu Xianyu is a little dissatisfied.
"I'm not saying anything, Haozi, there's an empty seat in the last row, why did you leave this seat for me? How can I slack off in this way? Even if I'm distracted in class, the teacher can see it clearly. Tsk tsk, you didn't choose a good seat." "Huh? You're not even satisfied with this seat? Don't you want to sit with me?" Before Jiang Tianhao could refute, a familiar female voice came over. Wu Xianyu turned his head and looked. Lin Miaomiao in the front row was chewing dried fruit, crossing her legs, swaying her body, and looking at Wu Xianyu sideways. She was the one who said the words just now, and at this time she had an expression as if she was going to accuse him. Wu Xianyu looked at Lin Miaomiao's hooligan look and couldn't help but complain. "Wow, there's a female hooligan, this position is even worse." Before Lin Miaomiao could get angry, Zhao Rongbao walked in from the front door, went straight to the podium and knocked on the iron desk. Everyone in the classroom suddenly became quiet and looked at Zhao Rongbao on the podium. Seeing that everyone's attention was shifted to him, Zhao Rongbao put his hands on the podium and started his first class meeting in high school. "Hello, students. I am your homeroom teacher, Zhao Rongbao, in charge of the subject of mathematics. First of all, in this first class meeting, I would like to talk about the school's rules and regulations..." Wu Xianyu, who was sitting behind Lin Miaomiao, had a sense of familiarity when he heard this and couldn't help but yawn quietly. Although Zhao Rongbao's voice was well-regulated and not very hypnotic, Wu Xianyu had already supported his chin with his hand and his eyelids gradually drooped. After a short while, Zhao Rongbao paused, stood up and glanced at the students in the audience. "Let me talk about the school's rules and regulations for now. We will send you a special document with details in due time. Next, start from the first row and go up to the stage to introduce yourselves." When they heard that they had to introduce themselves, there was a bit of commotion in the audience. Some people were more introverted, and for them, asking them to go on stage and introduce themselves in front of the whole class was like the end of the world. But things will not change because of some people's personalities. The self-introductions still continue one by one. Some people stutter for a long time and only say their names, while some people can fluently talk about their hobbies and dislikes. Wu Xianyu was quite glad that he didn't have that kind of conspicuous bag. What he remembered most clearly was that in high school in his previous life, a girl introduced herself in English. The atmosphere in the class was very awkward. Wu Xianyu felt his scalp tingling and his pupils dizzying. He was so embarrassed that he could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes. When it was a girl's turn to go on stage, Wu Xianyu paid a little attention to her. After all, among a group of girls who didn't know how to dress up, this girl who was obviously well-groomed was very conspicuous. "Hello everyone, my name is Deng Xiaoqi. I went to a foreign language school in junior high school. I like dancing, traveling, and taking photos. I once won the first prize in the province for my dance. Thank you everyone." After saying that, Deng Xiaoqi walked down from the podium like a proud white swan. Wu Xianyu frowned unconsciously and smelled a scent of tea. Wu Xianyu, who had been working in the sales industry since graduating from college, was still a little confident in his ability to judge people. At least he had no problem judging these students, but Deng Xiaoqi gave him the feeling of a green tea bitch in the future. Wu Xianyu secretly decided to keep a safe distance from Deng Xiaoqi and didn't pay much attention to her. Deng Xiaoqi returned to her seat and felt the gazes coming from all directions. She kept a calm face, but in her heart she felt like a star, enjoying the baptism of fans and was secretly happy. Soon it was Lin Miaomiao's turn to introduce herself. She lost her arrogance when she was talking to Wu Xianyu just now. She walked onto the stage a little shyly, bit her lip and spoke in a trembling voice. "Uh, hello everyone, my name is Lin Miaomiao, the same as Lin in Shuangmu, the Miao in Miaocujiao" A faint laugh came from the audience. Lin Miaomiao looked in the direction of the sound and found that Wu Xianyu's mouth was almost unable to suppress his laughter. She glared at him fiercely, and her inner tension disappeared a lot. She spoke more generously. "As you can tell from my self-introduction, I like eating, whether it's meals or snacks. As for what I hate, I haven't noticed anything yet. That's all. Thank you everyone." Lin Miaomiao walked down from the podium, and Wu Xianyu, who was sitting behind her, stood up and prepared to go on stage. After taking two steps, Wu Xianyu realized something was wrong. Why was Lin Miaomiao blocking his way to the podium? His pace gradually slowed down, and Wu Xianyu directly changed direction, passing through Lin Miaomiao's empty seat and walking up to the podium from another path. Wu Xianyu raised his eyebrows at Lin Miaomiao who looked incredulous and introduced himself with a smile. "Good morning everyone, my name is Wu Xianyu" As he spoke, Wu Xianyu picked up the chalk on the desk and wrote his name on the blackboard behind him. Seeing this action, Zhao Rongbao, who had been watching from the side with his arms folded, raised his eyebrows in surprise. After writing his name, Wu Xianyu pushed up his glasses. "My former classmates like to call me Salted Fish. You can call me that, too. After all, I am lazy, so I live up to my name. Even the things I like to do are very energy-saving, such as listening to music, reading novels, and fishing. Compared to my personality, the things I hate are obvious. I hate anything that requires physical and mental effort. Okay, please give me your guidance during the three years of high school. Thank you." With a slight bow, Wu Xianyu turned around and erased his name on the blackboard, then walked back to his seat with steady steps, stepping over Lin Miaomiao's deliberately stretched out short legs.
Many people in the classroom shifted their attention to Wu Xianyu again. After all, it was rare to see someone introduce himself in such a relaxed and well-organized way like him. Many girls also found that although Wu Xianyu did not have the blessing of a hairstyle, he was still considered a handsome guy. Just when Wu Xianyu was feeling uncomfortable because he was attracting too much attention, he and Lin Miaomiao were the last people in the line to go on stage and immediately drew all the attention away from him. The man had a bowl-covered hairstyle that covered his forehead tightly, and his eyes looked at the people in the audience without much emotion. "Hello everyone, my name is Qian Sanyi, and I am the top scorer in this year's high school entrance exam. If you have any questions about your studies, you can always ask me. This is my hobby." Qian Sanyi paused for a moment. The students in the audience didn't understand why this man suddenly stopped talking when he was speaking so well. Wu Xianyu looked up at this man and felt that he did not fit the image of a high school bully in his mind. "I like reading and don't like being disturbed while studying. Thank you everyone" Qian Sanyi quickly finished his self-introduction and walked to his seat in the last row. The title of top scorer in the senior high school entrance examination is still very attractive, and for a while the classroom was filled with whispers. Finally, it was Jiang Tianhao's turn to introduce himself. He walked up to the stage and wrote his name on the blackboard, then turned around and looked at everyone. "Hello everyone, some of my junior high school classmates who are also in Elite Middle School may already know me, but I'll still introduce myself. My name is Jiang Tianhao, I like playing basketball and games. If anyone needs anyone to play basketball or games, feel free to call me, salute" After saying that, Jiang Tianhao put his right index and middle fingers together, placed them on his forehead, and walked off the stage in a cool manner. A few boys in the audience laughed, but they soon disappeared. When the whole class finished introducing themselves, the bell rang. Before leaving, Zhao Rongbao called out the names of two people. "Jiang Tianhao and Liang Yunshu, please register the heights of the boys and girls respectively, and prepare to pick up the school uniforms this afternoon." After saying that, he walked out of the classroom with his hands behind his back. As soon as the teacher left, the classroom suddenly became lively. Lin Miaomiao turned around and was ready to take action, but Wu Xianyu lay on the table with no intention of hiding. He looked at Lin Miaomiao's hand stopping in front of him and said casually: "I'm standing here motionless. Do you dare to touch me? You know, men and women shouldn't touch each other. There are so many people in the classroom. If one person sees it, it will be a big deal. If the teacher hears it, haha." Lin Miaomiao's hand stopped at the corner of Wu Xianyu's mouth, not daring to take any further steps. Lin Miaomiao looked at Wu Xianyu with a smile on his face with gritted teeth. Only then did she realize that this man was not the good person she had imagined at first, and he must be harboring a lot of bad intentions in his heart. "I misjudged you. I thought you were a good person, but it turns out you're a bad guy." Wu Xianyu ignored Lin Miaomiao's words, rested his head on his arms and closed his eyes. "It's bad, I'll catch up on some sleep" "Hey, come on, this is only the first class, did you not sleep well last night?" Lin Miaomiao watched Wu Xianyu close his eyes, then open his eyes wide and asked in disbelief. "I slept well last night. This table and chair, as well as the surrounding environment, were very hypnotic." Wu Xianyu responded to Lin Miaomiao slowly. Suddenly, something stuck to his face. He reached out and took it. He opened his eyes. “Dried mango?” Lin Miaomiao bit a hawthorn stick in her mouth and raised her chin towards Wu Xianyu. "I'm giving this to you. Eat something and chat with me." Wu Xianyu put the dried mango into the hole in the table and continued to lie down. "No, there's nothing to talk about. I'm going to catch up on my sleep. Look, so many people in the class are catching up on their sleep. Please don't torture me alone." When Lin Miaomiao heard Wu Xianyu's words, she straightened her back and looked around. Indeed, there were a lot of people lying down. Even Deng Xiaoqi, who was sleeping in the lower bunk in her dormitory, was catching up on her sleep. She couldn't help but move closer to Deng Xiaoqi. "Xiaoqi, why are you so listless? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Yeah, the bed at school was too hard, I couldn't sleep all night." (End of this chapter)
