I was reborn after my cousin stole my life.

Chapter 239: Would it be too cowardly to not take the challenge?

Yuan Xiu subconsciously felt that Ding Xuewen had no good intentions in recommending her.

And he even made himself "demonstrate"?

Is he sure he doesn't want to embarrass himself?

Liu Yazhi whispered, "Ding Xuewen actually recommended you!"

Yes, they actually recommended her. She's a day student with two young children at home, and she hasn't shown any talent or artistic skills since starting school.

Recommending her means you genuinely believe in her potential?

Or do they want to push her up for comparison?

Don't you all think I'm not good enough? Then recommend someone you think is good, and see if she can catch up with me.

Or perhaps they wanted to disrupt her rhythm, making her too busy to study and improve herself?

Yuan Xiu thought darkly.

Ding Xuewen recommended Yuan Xiu, and he actually got the approval of most of the class.

"I also recommend Yuan Xiu. Although she is a day student, I don't think it will affect her being the sports and arts committee member. After all, there aren't many sports and arts activities, and our main focus should be on studying."

"Yes, Yuan Xiu has a good personality, strong communication skills, and is also a military dependent. She is 'both politically sound and professionally competent.' She was previously an employee of a military hospital and knows many senior students in our college. She can effectively build a bridge of communication for our senior alumni..."

Yuan Xiu: ...Do I have this ability? How come I didn't know?

After being recommended by several classmates, Yuan Xiu was put on the spot, and even Teacher Zhou thought that Yuan Xiu could serve as the cultural and sports committee member.

"Since the classmates all recommend it, then let Yuan Xiu..."

Before Teacher Zhou could finish speaking, Ding Xuewen quickly said, "Let Yuan Xiu showcase her artistic talents so that we can all appreciate them. This way, it will be more convincing to everyone."

Yuan Xiu couldn't help but roll her eyes. Who wanted to win people over? Who wanted to be the arts and sports committee member?

Seeing that Yuan Xiu remained silent and showed no joy, Ding Xuewen asked with a smile, "Yuan Xiu, are you scared? Do you want to back out?"

"If I understand the phrase 'backing down,' it means someone who initially agreed to do something but then backed out halfway through because they were afraid of difficulties or trouble, changed their mind, or didn't want to do it anymore..."

Yuan Xiu glanced at Ding Xuewen casually, "For example, someone like Ding, who is willing to 'give up' being the class's arts and sports representative."

Ding Xuewen's smile froze for a moment. He didn't believe Yuan Xiu didn't know why he didn't want to be the cultural and sports committee member!

It was definitely them!

Yes, it's clear. Anyone with a sharp mind would have figured it out: Ding Xuewen's words when he came out of Teacher Zhou's office this morning were nothing more than an attempt to save face for himself.

Otherwise, where in this world would such a coincidence happen?

Yuan Xiu didn't want to say these things, but who told him to stir up trouble?

She didn't offend him, did she?

Since his words were barbed, I naturally had to retaliate.

As soon as Yuan Xiu said that, many people in the class held back their laughter.

Some didn't quite understand, but they didn't think Yuan Xiu's words were wrong, since Ding Xuewen had indeed "backed down halfway."

Teacher Zhou looked at this student and then that student, changing the subject, "Are there any other candidates you'd recommend? Are there any students who have volunteered?"

No one in the class spoke.

Liu Yazhi whispered to Yuan Xiu, "Don't you want to be the class's arts and sports representative? If you don't want to be, just tell Teacher Zhou you won't participate..."

"No." Yuan Xiu's lips curled into a half-smile. "They've already made their move so close; if I don't accept, wouldn't that be too cowardly?"

Ding Xuewen just thinks she can't do it well and wants to embarrass her, right? Then she'll show him whether she can do it or not!

"It seems everyone favors Yuan Xiu. Does Yuan Xiu have anything to say? Whether to accept the responsibility here or refuse is up to you, since your situation is different from everyone else's."

Yuan Xiu did not want to be treated specially, because she was a day student. If she could be bypassed in the election of class committee members, would other matters in the class and school also be bypassed and ignored?

If it weren't for Ding Xuewen's recommendation, I'm afraid no one would have mentioned my name.

Just because she can't participate in the self-study sessions that are spontaneously organized at work doesn't mean she can't participate in other activities.

Some bridges still need to be built starting now.

I accept.

Yuan Xiu stood up and said humbly, "Thank you for your trust, classmates. I have limited abilities and little experience, and I don't know if I can be a good class's sports and arts representative. I'm quite nervous, but..."

Yuan Xiu said sincerely, "As long as I am the class's sports and cultural representative, I will fulfill my responsibilities."

"Organizing class cultural and sports activities is not just about singing, dancing, and running; it's also about promoting class unity and student progress. To elaborate, I believe there are four advantages."

"Firstly, it can liven up the class atmosphere. Everyone is usually under a lot of pressure from their studies, and appropriate cultural and sports activities can help students relax, balance work and rest, and have more energy to devote to their studies and work."

"Secondly, it can enhance the sense of collectivism. Cultural and sports activities emphasize mutual cooperation and support. When everyone thinks in the same direction and works together, it can make our class more united and cohesive."

"Thirdly, it can cultivate revolutionary sentiments. Singing revolutionary songs and performing cultural programs can educate everyone while entertaining them, remind them of revolutionary traditions, establish correct thinking, and become good students who are both politically sound and professionally competent."

"Fourth, it can cultivate everyone's willpower. Physical activities can enhance physical fitness and cultivate a spirit of not being afraid of hardship or fatigue, so that whether it is studying or entering the workforce in the future, one can withstand and carry the load."

"Therefore, I believe that doing a good job in class cultural and sports activities is not only beneficial to learning, but also to unity, and even more beneficial to everyone's growth and progress."

After speaking, Yuan Xiu added, "These are just my humble opinions. If I have misunderstood them, I welcome corrections from the teachers and classmates."

The words "shallow view" were pronounced particularly clearly.

Ding Xuewen: ...He came for me.

Anyone can say nice things.

Being able to do a good job is the real skill!

"And what about classmate Yuan Xiu..."

Ding Xuewen had barely uttered two words when Yuan Xiu interrupted him with a smile: "After talking so much, let me sing a song for the students. After all, I need to win their hearts."

"Being able to sing doesn't necessarily make you a good class's arts and sports representative, but I believe Yuan Xiu can!" Liu Fang said. "Although she's never been an arts and sports representative before, she understands the responsibilities very well. I believe in Yuan Xiu!"

"I also believe that Yuan Xiu can do it!" Wang Jianjun continued.

Xia Yang: "I believe in Yuan Xiu's abilities. Someone who can master medicine will be equally capable in other areas."

Zheng Yuemei also chimed in with a couple of words.

Four out of the five class committee members thought Yuan Xiu was a good candidate.

Yes, another former official also thought Yuan Xiuxing was good, after all, he was the one who recommended him.

Teacher Zhou smiled and nodded: "It seems that Yuan Xiu's excellence is well understood by her classmates. From today onwards, Yuan Xiu will be our class's cultural and sports representative!"
