Chapter 822: Social Phobic

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yang smiled. “It’s okay, I’ll watch you count.”

The other two boys also glanced at Su Ziyun expectantly.

Su Ziyun knew she risked ruining the favorable impression others had of her by contesting the vote, but becoming class monitor meant a lot to her. If Gu Yang’s influence unfairly shifted the vote to Qiao Manman, she couldn’t let the opportunity slip away without a fight.

After tallying her and Qiao Manman’s votes, Su Ziyun realized they matched Gu Yang and the others’ counts.

Gu Yang smiled and gently reminded her, “Student Su Ziyun, have you finished counting?”

Under his watchful gaze, Su Ziyun felt a surge of nerves. Clutching the tally sheet tightly, she managed a strained smile. “I rushed through the count earlier. Let me double-check.”

“Alright,” Gu Yang replied calmly, leaning forward with his chin resting on his hand as he observed her closely.

The two boys who tallied the votes alongside them remained silent. One of them had voted for Su Ziyun, impressed by her candidacy for class monitor.

The two of them muttered quietly, but their voices carried to those nearby.

“You have to count the ballots a couple of times. Who does she think she’s looking down on?”

“Maybe she thinks we’re all as careless as she is, just counting randomly.”

Hearing their murmurs, Su Ziyun felt her frustration deepen. No matter how many times she recounted, the votes remained unchanged.

She glanced up and caught Gu Yang smiling at her, which only added to her embarrassment.

Dryly, she admitted, “I’m sorry. That was unnecessary.”

Aside from the class monitor election, Su Ziyun had also campaigned for secretary and the study committee. However, when the results were announced, she had only garnered five votes.

Pan Shanyu was elected secretary with 20 votes.

Su Ziyun was shocked.

Realizing her earlier actions may have tarnished her reputation, she apologized to Gu Yang, Qiao Manman, and the others before pursuing a seat on the study committee.

Her efforts paid off when she managed to win their favor, securing a position on the committee.

Back in the dormitory, Su Ziyun asked Ning Gui, “Ning Gui, why didn’t you vote for me?”

Ning Gui was a social phobic and preferred staying in the comfort of her dormitory, engrossed in books and games.

She was in the midst of a game when Su Ziyun’s words reached her, causing her slight confusion. “Can’t I?”

Su Ziyun immediately grasped the situation. As expected, Ning Gui hadn’t voted for her.

Feeling hurt, Su Ziyun protested, “Ning Gui, we’re roommates. I’ve even brought you breakfast before. I thought we were friends and you would support me.”

Gunshots from the game sounded as Ning Gui’s character fell to the ground. Frowning, Ning Gui replied in a timid voice, “I didn’t accept the breakfast. We’re not friends.”

With that, she grabbed her bag and headed to the library.

It was quieter there.

No one bothered her, and she didn’t have to engage with anyone.

Ultimately, it didn’t matter to her whom she voted for. She couldn’t help but envy carefree girls like Qiao Manman, who effortlessly navigated social interactions.

Meanwhile, after pursuing Gu Jin, Xiao Yize became a professor in the Physics Department. Initially, to be close to Gu Jin, he had considered becoming a mathematics teacher.

This was because Advanced Mathematics classes were the most regularly scheduled every week.

But now, as Gu Jin’s boyfriend with the freedom to spend more time with her, he opted not to become an advanced mathematics teacher. Instead, he chose to teach a course on water policy and management.

The dean of the Physics Department felt a twinge of regret. After all, Xiao Yize’s academic credentials fell short compared to the professors at Hua University.

However, after graduation, he joined a national department and didn’t pursue further studies in related fields.
