Chapter 254, the club manager

Shuishui blinked and looked straight at Jiang Yuan. "Uncle, you can go back to work."

Jiang Yuan calmly assured Shuishui that he would be back in time for lunch. "I'll go then. I will pick you up for lunch and take you out to eat something delicious." Jiang Yuan saw that it was almost time for class, so he quickly left.

Shuishui stood by the corner for a while as she waited for the discipline teacher to bring her books. "These are the books for this semester. There are a lot of them. Do you need help?"

"No, thank you. Teacher, which way is Class 11?" Shuishui was not familiar with the area. She knew she had to ask for directions.

"Turn left here and go upstairs. That is our building. Class 11 is on the third floor. You can find the class by looking at the signs," the discipline teacher explained.

Shuishui left the office with the books in her hands and went upstairs to look for the classroom. She looked around as she breathed in the unfamiliar environment. She was surrounded by new people. She felt very sorry for Mu Qing because her decision was a little sudden, but she knew that Mu Qing would understand because they were very good friends.

When she found her classroom, she stood by the door for a few seconds and walked in. There was an intellectual-looking middle-aged woman standing on the podium. Shuishui walked up to her and said, "Teacher, I'm the new transfer student. The discipline director asked me to give this to you."

The middle-aged woman looked at the note and glanced at Shuishui. "You're Qian Shuishui, the transferee. You can sit in the vacant seat in the second-to-the-last row on the left. No one has taken that seat yet. Go and sit down first."

Shuishui walked over to the seat and sat down. Some of her classmates were staring at her. They were amazed by her watery eyes and simply found her beautiful. They could not help but take a few more glances at her. Many of the students in the class were familiar with each other. Some of them were only acquainted with each other. They had only passed by each other in the hallways and corridors. Because they were already familiar with each other, they were able to easily get to know each other.

Very soon, someone took the initiative to speak to Shuishui. "Are you a transfer student?"

Shuishui revealed a smile. "Yes."

"It's rare to see a second-year transfer student. It's rarer to see second-year students choose science subjects. My name is He Xiaoying. What's your name?" said the girl. Shuishui looked at her. She had an ordinary appearance. She had pockmarks on both sides of her cheeks. She didn't really know anyone in the classroom, so she approached Shuishui, who was sitting alone. She took the initiative to talk to her. She stepped forward and saw Shuishui's face. What a beautiful girl. She looked around. There were so few girls. Besides Shuishui, there were only three other beautiful girls.

Shuishui smiled. "My name is Qian Shuishui." She thought that this girl was quite lively.

He Xiaoying found Shuishui's name easy to remember. "There are only a few girls in this class, and there are very few girls in the science course. Our books will be released later. How come you've gotten yours already?"

"En, when I arrived earlier, the teacher gave them to me." Shuishui did not care. There was no difference between getting them early and getting them late.

Everyone was ready. When the teacher handed out the books, some students actually went up to help. After the books have been distributed, the teacher began to introduce himself. "Hello, everyone. I will be your class teacher. I believe many people know me. My surname is Wang. My name is Wang Shu. You can call me Teacher Wang. I'm so hungry. The classes have already been divided. By the end of this semester, if you don't find yourself liking this course, you can still switch to liberal arts. It all depends on your preference."

Everyone paid attention to the teacher, who also explained the curriculum arrangements. "Because of the academic level exam, the time for liberal arts classes will be reduced, with science as the main subject."

"There are two classes for self-study every night, and one class for day students. Attendance in either is a must. Since you're second year students, you will be taking the assessment exams. The exam is conducted once a month or twice a month and will determine whether you need to attend remedial classes. Once you reach third year, however, you will have to participate in all remedial classes." Teacher Wang looked at their frowning faces. "You don't have to worry. Only those in the bottom fifty will be required to attend the remedial classes. As long as you don't do so badly, you'll be fine."

The teacher gave an overview of school activities, school regulations, campus rules, and curriculum updates. Before he adjourned the class meeting, he told the students that classes officially start the next day.

He Xiaoying was quite eager to take Shuishui on a tour around the school. "Over here is the canteen. We only have one big canteen, but our school's library is considered the best among all the local universities."

He Xiaoying was fond of the school, so she had many good things to say about it to Shuishui. "We have a small forest here. Recently, there were some film school students who shot a few scenes here."

Shuishui looked at the surroundings. "The campus environment is really good. There are flowers, grass, and a small forest. The buildings have even been designed according to vintage architecture," she said.

"Yeah. The environment is really beautiful. I think that the campus should be ranked number one in the whole of Beijing," He Xiaoying said proudly. She was not the only one who thought so. Many people shared her opinion.

Shuishui nodded. "It's pretty good. It's already twelve o'clock. See you tomorrow then."

He Xiaoying waved her hand. "Okay. See you tomorrow." She was a boarding student, so she could only return to the campus dormitory.

Shuishui walked to the school gate and took out her cell phone to call Jiang Yuan. In a short while, Jiang Yuan arrived, picked up Shuishui, and took her out to eat.

"You don't have to be too formal with me. You will need money these days. If you have any problems, just tell me. Also, the barbecue restaurant is very popular now. Every night, customers queue outside because it gets so full inside. Every month, you will get bonuses. By that time, you will be a little rich woman." One had to say that Shuishui had good taste. Otherwise, the restaurant wouldn't have gained popularity that fast.

It was very exciting to think that the money would grow soon if the restaurant continued to earn.

"No, Uncle. We still have enough. Uncle, don't worry. I will arrange it. Besides, now that my brother lives with me, I have to budget our expenses properly." Shuishui had to consider Qian Anzhi. She could not rely entirely on Jiang Yuan. Besides, when they reached *****hood, they would have enough money to live on.

"Okay. How was school today? Did you make any new friends?" Shuishui did not seem to be the type to easily befriend people. She would rarely take the initiative to strike up a conversation. When she first arrived at the capital, she rarely asked him for help. She was such an independent and self-reliant child that it made his heart ache a little.

Shuishui nodded. "I met a girl in class. She's quite a lively child."

Jiang Yuan laughed. He found her choice words especially interesting. "You call other kids your age 'children'?"

The next day, Shuishui went to school early. Qian Anzhi, meanwhile, went to school with Jiang Li.

On that day, the official first day of class, they were supposed to choose their class representative.

Shuishui was designated as the music class representative. She was stunned, but it didn't matter. It did not seem to be a heavy position. Shuishui was a little surprised that He Xiaoying was designated as the physics class representative. However, she believed that all the girls in their class were confident in themselves. Otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen science. It was difficult to keep up with science lessons. One had to be a quick thinker.

After class, a boy approached Shuishui. "Qian Shuishui, do you want to join the club?"

Shuishui raised her head and looked at the boy. She remembered that his name was Zheng Rong. "I don't plan to join any club for the time being," she answered.

"If you're interested in joining the basketball club, just let me know. We're looking for a manager," Zheng Rong said a little shyly. He was courteous and shy around Shuishui. He had not had many beautiful classmates.

Shuishui understood. "How should I put it? Well, I don't hate basketball, but I find it a little troublesome to be a manager. I'm lazy."

"Actually, there's nothing much to do. You can join our club meeting before you make a decision." He felt that Shuishui was quite easy to talk to.

Shuishui simply agreed. "That's fine. I'll find time later."

"All right then. How about today at noon?" Zheng Rong asked.

Shuishui nodded. "That's fine too."

He revealed a cute smile. "Let's have lunch together then. I'll bring you there."

Shuishui thought he was a cute boy. "All right."

He Xiaoying sat beside him. She didn't expect Qian Shuishui to be so popular. Beautiful girls were indeed more popular. She had a good impression of Shuishui, whom she found to be very gentle.

When the class was dismissed, Shuishui walked up to the bulletin board and read the announcements.

During their class meeting, the teacher told them that any activities would be announced on the bulletin board. Competitions would also be posted there. She saw a flyer in the corner. It was about an upcoming mathematics competition. There was a prize money, and Shuishui saw that it was more than what she won in the mathematics competition back in City A. Part of the prize package was a book purchase card worth a thousand yuan. Her eyes widened in excitement. Even the third placer would get a book purchase card worth five hundred yuan along with a cash prize of five hundred yuan. The competition was a one-time competition with no screening tests, and it was to be held the following week.

She looked for her teacher so she could sign up. The last day for signing up was on Friday.

She also saw a flyer for an English competition. The date posted was the schedule of the test. It was also scheduled next week, and the deadline for registration was also next Friday. The prizes were pretty enticing. She wasn't interested in anything else, so she took note of the dates and sped off to her teacher's office.

She walked inside her teacher's office. There was a registration fee of twenty yuan, which she paid directly. The teacher was very supportive of students who were interested in participating, regardless of whether they had a good chance of winning or not.

Shuishui signed up for two competitions at once, which surprised the teacher. This new student was quite motivated.

She had lunch with Zheng Rong and He Xiaoying. She didn't know anyone in the class other than them, so she agreed to go with them.

After lunch, they joined the basketball club meeting. Shuishui saw a few boys in basketball uniforms gathered together. She didn't know what to say.

Zheng Rong shouted, "Sorry to keep you waiting. I brought two of my classmates with me. If she finds our club interesting, she'll stay and be the manager."

Shuishui and He Xiaoying walked inside the room together, and the club members looked at them in surprise. Two girls? Which girl wanted to be the manager?

He Xiaoying saw the boy she liked. She just found out at that moment that he was a member of the basketball club. She had not known anything about him before.

Zheng Rong pointed to the field. "This is our practice ground."

Shuishui nodded. "I know the campus is big, but I didn't expect the basketball court to be in a separate area. What activities do the basketball clubs usually have?"

"Actually, we only play friendly matches with other schools occasionally. We also participate in other matches. The manager doesn't have much to do. The manager just helps us organize some matches and is in charge of our publicity," Zheng Rong said. He was afraid of scaring Shuishui away.

Shuishui turned to look at He Xiaoying. "Xiaoying, are you interested?"

"Ah, you're asking me? I don't think it's a problem. Actually, club activities are quite good too." She didn't mind.

Zheng Rong stared at them. It can't be. He wanted Qian Shuishui to be the manager. The team would be proud to have a beautiful woman as their manager.
