Chatting casually with the few girls in dorm room 501, before long, all the freshmen had arrived.
A rough estimate would be over fifty people.
Many university classes only have thirty or forty students, even as few as twenty, so Financial Management Class 1 was considered a relatively large class.
The male to female ratio was close to one to one, roughly the same as the overall profile of the financial management school.
Looking around, all the faces were familiar; they were the same people from the previous life, indicating that my rebirth had caused no butterfly effect.
At seven thirty in the evening, a female teacher walked into the multimedia classroom.
"Good evening, everyone. I am Yao Hui, the head teacher of Financial Management Class 1. I'm delighted to meet you all and hope we have a wonderful time together for the next four years…"
She gave a brief opening speech.
This female head teacher was not yet thirty, having graduated from her postgraduate studies only a few years ago. Quite young, she always wore a smile, and did not seem to be a strict person.
"There's nothing particularly important in today's class meeting. Since you're all new here, how about each of you come up to the stage and give a self-introduction so everyone gets to know each other? You can go in any order; whoever wants to go first can."
Yao Hui beamed as she spoke.
In fact, she had a deeper intention in asking everyone to introduce themselves—not just to become familiar faces. If you were sharp enough, you could observe each person's character traits during the brief meeting, thereby determining candidates for class officers.
As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Wenzhe immediately stood up.
This was an opportunity to stand out, and he naturally wouldn't miss it. Being the first to introduce himself also allowed him to exhibit confidence in front of the teacher, leaving a good impression. He might even be considered a candidate for class officer.
"Teacher Yao, and all my fellow classmates from all over, good evening. I am Pei Wenzhe. 'Pei' as in the return, 'Wen' as in literature, and 'Zhe' as in philosophy. I am from the ancient, culturally rich city of Chang'an, the capital of Shan Province. I love traveling, sports, and especially literature. I've published model essays in the 'Chang'an Youth Digest' and won the 'Star Light Cup' first prize for composition. My motto is 'The sea of learning knows no bounds; keep your aspirations high'..."
This guy had some substance; he knew there would be a self-introduction segment at the class meeting, so he had prepared in advance, speaking confidently and eloquently on stage, his face full of confidence.
"I am cheerful, willing to help others, and was fortunate to be elected class monitor by classmates throughout my three years in high school. In the coming four years, I hope to become good friends with each of you present!"
As he concluded his self-introduction, he purposely revealed his role as class monitor in high school, conveying a message to Yao Hui and the others, paving the way for the future class monitor election.
As he finished speaking, many in the classroom applauded warmly.
Pei Wenzhe was very pleased, knowing that his self-introduction was successful and would definitely leave a good impression in others' minds.
Only the boys from dorm 302 remained unmoved, having already had a conflict with him due to his previous actions.
"Saying he hopes to be friends with every classmate, huh? Pff, I think this guy's just a hypocrite!"
Zeng Kaiping muttered a couple of curse words under his breath, clearly having a strong dislike for Pei Wenzhe.
Yao Hui nodded in satisfaction.
This boy's speech was fitting, his eloquence good, and he was full of confidence. It seems he had indeed trained as a class monitor in high school.
"Classmate Pei Wenzhe has set a great example for us. I hope others can also step up boldly. University is a place to showcase your personality, so don't hold back—show your true selves freely!"
Others began going up to the stage one by one, introducing their names, hometowns, hobbies, and personalities, but none were as eye-catching as Pei Wenzhe.
After another boy finished speaking, Luo Xi stood up.
All eyes turned to her, especially those of the boys. Some people, even if they don't do anything, can instantly become the focus of others' attention—Qin Shiqing was like this, and so was Luo Xi.
"Dear teacher, classmates, good evening. My name is Luo Xi. 'Luo' as from 'Luo Shen Fu', and 'Xi' as in morning light. My father gave me this name, hoping I can be lively and cheerful like the first ray of morning sunlight. Also, since the most important part of the day is in the morning, the character 'Xi' symbolizes new hopes for each day..."
Faced with over fifty classmates' dozens of looks, Luo Xi showed no stage fright. She smiled, her bright eyes sparkling with intelligence, her voice pleasant and clear, speaking eloquently. Her demeanor was calm and poised, her lips slightly upturned, giving off a slightly proud air.
This girl possessed an extraordinary charm that exuded confidence, granting her an unignorable aura as if she was naturally meant to be the protagonist of this world.
Even compared to Qin Shiqing, Luo Xi was no less impressive, yet the two were distinctly different.
Qin Shiqing was gentle and graceful, elegant and serene. Her beauty was restrained and understated, intelligent yet modest, making her appear easy to get along with.
Luo Xi, on the other hand, was bright and clever, brimming with aura. Her beauty was as dazzling as the morning light, unreserved and aggressive, making those with a lack of self-confidence feel inferior in her presence.
If Qin Shiqing was like a white rose blooming quietly in the depths of a courtyard, then Luo Xi was like a magnificent, stunning red peony.
The peony is hailed as the king of flowers, enchanting and radiant, symbolizing nobility and elegance.
