On the stage, the counselor first read out: "Duan Yi, seven votes."
Hearing this, nearly half of the students in the class were a bit surprised, and so was Xia Yu.
Seven votes were too low. There were thirty people in the class, and the girls had a total of nineteen votes.
Xia Yu thought of something, looked at Yi Shiyu's face, and saw a triumphant smile flash across it.
Undoubtedly, this was Yi Shiyu's trick.
However, how did he manage to control so many girls' votes, leaving Duan Yi with only seven votes?
Was this guy's method really so terrifying?
Compared to Xia Yu, Duan Yi was even more shocked. She turned her head and looked at the girls.
Were so many people betraying her?
Then the counselor read the name of another girl:
"Wang Lili..." The counselor deliberately paused and took a sip of tea.
Duan Yi immediately turned her face and stared sharply at Wang Lili.
Xia Yu sighed in his heart. Yi Shiyu was able to create discord among the girls. It was quite a skill.
However, this method was a bit despicable.
"Six votes," the counselor continued.
Duan Yi quickly calculated. There were a total of nineteen girls. Now, she had seven votes while Wang Lili had six. So where did the other six votes go?
Xia Yu and Yi Shiyu were equally puzzled.
However, Yi Shiyu didn't care too much. He thought he could get almost all the boys' votes, close to ten in total. Even if he had fewer, it should still be more than Duan Yi's seven votes. His position as class leader was basically secure.
This change in his expression did not escape the counselor's eyes. Taking another sip of tea, the counselor felt quite amused.
In all his years as a counselor, he hadn't seen a situation like this. Duan Yi and Yi Shiyu's struggle within the class was quite interesting.
This had been the most exciting time in his teaching career.
Looking at the list in his hand, the counselor grinned and continued: "Xia Yu, eight votes."
This surprised Xia Yu a bit, as he did not expect anyone to vote for him.
Duan Yi turned her head, looked at Xia Yu expressionlessly, then turned her attention back to Wang Lili.
With an "I knew it" look, Yi Shiyu turned to Xia Yu. He didn't really believe Xia Yu wouldn't compete for the position of class leader. Now, Xia Yu really did compete!
However, it was pointless. There were thirty people in the class, and now there were still nine votes left. The position of class leader still belonged to him!
Recalling his process of defeating Duan Yi and Xia Yu, Yi Shiyu felt a great sense of satisfaction and pride.
Seeing that Yi Shiyu's emotions had reached their peak, the counselor's smile became even brighter.
He then turned his gaze from the bottom of the list and began reading the deliberately skipped names:
"Yi Shiyu, two votes."
Seeing the disbelief and confusion on Yi Shiyu's face, the counselor felt deeply satisfied.
Yi Shiyu clenched his fists and stood up, wanting to say something, but his reason appeared in time, and he sat back down.
The counselor read the last name: "Qin Youliang, seven votes."
Qin Youliang, who was chatting with his six best friends, was taken aback.
"Tell me, was it you guys who voted?" He looked at his six best friends.
The new male student chuckled, "We feel Yi Shiyu is a bit disgusting, so none of us wanted to vote for him."
"Does he think we can't see through his scheming? He doesn't have any real skills, and no one cares about his minor flattery."
"Those two votes for him should have been from you and himself, right?"
"Don't worry, Xia Yu has more votes anyway. After that, Duan Yi and you have the same number of votes, so you won't be the class leader."
Upon hearing his friends' words, Qin Youliang felt relieved.
Election matters only mattered for those who were elected, those who weren't elected were as good as having no votes, so he was as good as having no votes.
Qin Youliang continued chatting with his friends.
On the stage, after enjoying the expressions of Yi Shiyu and Duan Yi, the counselor said to the students below, "So now, Xia Yu has the most votes, Xia Yu, you should be the class leader."
"..." Xia Yu didn't expect to have to reject the counselor again after rejecting once.
Among the male students, two voted for Yi Shiyu, six for Qin Youliang, and from the eight votes, there should have been two male students and six female students.
The two male students probably didn't want to vote for Yi Shiyu and didn't want to help the female students, so they voted for him.
As for the six female students, they probably thought that losing one vote didn't matter, and it was better to support him.
Obviously, the students wouldn't choose a class leader who only attended military training for two days.
Thinking about this, Xia Yu stood up and said, "I have other things to do besides school, so I don't want to be the class leader. I really don't have the time."
The classmates all thought he was talking about An Siyao, and after the teasing sounds, they agreed to his abdication.
"So it's between Duan Yi and Qin Youliang, what do you two have to say?" The counselor looked at the two again.
Duan Yi was the first to stand up, "I don't think I'm mature enough, and I don't have enough leadership skills, so I'll pass on being the class leader."
"Where are your leadership skills lacking?" A female student protested.
"In just twenty days, the original nineteen people with one heart were divided into three factions, if the class is handed over to me, it will be disbanded within a semester." Duan Yi mocked mercilessly.
The girls who voted for Wang Lili and Xia Yu felt a bit uneasy.
"Then it's Qin Youliang, don't push it anymore, the organization has decided it's you." The counselor didn't give Qin Youliang a chance to refuse, he didn't want to hand the class over to Wang Lili and Yi Shiyu.
It's better for the class leader to have less scheming, otherwise, it might backfire on him.
"Ah?" Qin Youliang stood up with a bewildered look on his face.
He was still holding a mobile phone, playing the game Fight the Landlord.
"Alright, you're the class leader. As for the league branch secretary, let's have Duan Yi. We need someone on the girls' side too." The counselor looked at Duan Yi again.
"I still feel inadequate, let Wang Lili be the league branch secretary." Duan Yi was completely disheartened and didn't want to manage affairs anymore.
She never wanted to be the class leader in the first place, it was the girls who pushed her forward. She didn't perfunctory, she did her job well, but ended up being betrayed.
Seeing that Duan Yi really didn't want to do it, the counselor could only hand over the position to Wang Lili.
Following that, there were some minor tasks such as publicity committee members, but Xia Yu, Duan Yi, and Yi Shiyu all declined these roles.
Xia Yu was calm and composed, while Duan Yi felt somewhat resentful and Yi Shiyu was extremely dejected.
After the class meeting, the lessons began.
When the morning classes ended, and the bell rang for the break, a group of people went to the canteen for lunch, then returned to their dormitories.
Xia Yu also returned to his dormitory and playfully congratulated Qin Youliang on his election.
Qin Youliang was concerned about the emotional state of the disappointed Yi Shiyu, but Yi Shiyu hadn't returned to the dormitory at all.
Through this matter, Xia Yu pondered and gave up the idea of starting a business with Yi Shiyu, as this guy had some abilities, but his character was a bit problematic.
So, who else could he find?
With this question in mind, Xia Yu returned home.
He received a call from Kong Hanyue, who told him that in order to prevent Zhong Yunxin from causing trouble at the last minute, she sent Zhong Yunxin to her place first.
Zhong Yunxin would be taking a noon flight and would arrive soon.
